eloqnently simple speech at the last
banquet on the occasion of the Grand
Cross of Carlos I'LL, being conferred on
the Governor of the Province of
Madrid, may be taken as a reply of the

 One of these old fellows espoused the cause of Spain, declaring that she had been jumped on because she was itte and that this country was playing the part of a great big bully. After they had ex. changed hot shots for few minutes, the champion of the government got things to going his way by shouting .that the other fellow came honestly by his principles and was bred traitor.
 What do you mean, you old shrimp?' from the advocate of Spain.
 During the war with Great Britain the British entered the harbor and burned the town of New London, didn't they?
 Course they did. What of it2'
 Why, somebody piloted them there and when he come home his pockets was full of British gold, paid for his dirty work, and his neighbors, hearin' of what he had done, got ropes and made him an evenin' call. He scudded by the back door and never stopped til he got to Bermuda, and he never had the cheek to come back

They didn't believe my message that 1 was only slightly wounded, so on my arrival 1 was met by my wife, her mother, two maiden aunts and girl cousin, all rallied from the four quarters of Michi- gan and adjoining states to nurse me. 1 don't need any nursing worth mentioning, but, believe me, if I've drawn a long breath in two weeks without those five women jumping up and rushing at me l will eat my army blanket. If l wink my wife says: What is t, dear?-if move one leg, my girl cousin springs at me with another pillow in her hand; during the night my two aunts wake me tip to see if | want anything; and my mother-in-law-well. the dear soul hasn't sat down or been to bed since came-to my knowledge. My wound Is nearly healed, and that's blessing, for if I don't get back to Cuba pretty soon I'll he a ruined man. rant stand such coddling-it will make 8 hlnated tvrant out ef me. so fl will. \ man needs war once in awhile to get him away from woman-dear. loving woman-she would make a spineless infant out of him in no time.
