How Walking sticks Are Made

(ET0m Golden Penny)
The industry Of making walking sticks
has undergone many changes during the
past 80 years. The sticks are bent into
the requisite shapes by being plunged
into hot sand. which is kept at a proper
temperature over 4 stove. Crooked sticks
can thus be bent straight. and after they
have been manipulated they are put on
one side 70 cool. when they become per
fectIy rigid. Different kinds OF wood re-
quire a different heat in order to render
chem piable The most popular sticks
are those made from the saplings OF trees.
Of which the roots form the handles Of
the stocks These are much more eXpsn-
slvs than sticks cut from the solid wood.

Against This Country.

(Habana correspondence new AOrh
Herald)
For the first time since the peace pro-
tocol was signed, Captain Blanco
consented to-day to speak Of the war to
an American newspaper. This is what
he said:
II am naturally inclined to be charitable
and am incapable of hating any one, but
L confess to a feeling of deep resentment
against the United States, whose conduct
toward Spain in declaring war against us,
without motive or pretext, just at the
time when they were receiving from us
the highest marks of our friendship and
respect, can never be condemned too Sc
verely.
1T ought never to be forgotten that
Just when the United States were an
nouncing their intention of coming to
Cuba TO establish a firm government. they
were in reality directing hostlities prin-
cipally against Porto Rico and the Philip
mines.
"Slnce the beginning OF this war il has
always been my heartfelt desire, az com
mander-in-chief of the army, for the day
TO arrive when L could match my armed
strength against theirs, and die, if neces-
sary, among the ruins of Habana, If for
tune were flOl ldNOidDiCI DuN L Nteo Nh"bAS
to realize my hope.
MY government has signed the peace
protocol and her decision must be COM
piled with. Nevertheless, / have an eter-
nal confidence in divine justice, and l
have, therefore, hope that this arrogant
nation will receive its just deserts. and
God knows that the day when this act of
national despoliation is accomplished and
the Stars and Stripes float from the walls
Of Habana, that day may perhaps marx
the beginning of the decay of the Ameri-
can nation.
before il is all over l wish to put my
self on record as having no dislike Tor
the army of the United States. On the
contrary, 1 have the highest appreciation
of their noble and courageous behavior"

morning, the experiment schooner Free
man was blown up by an explosion OF
