Germany on a visit.
In the course of an interview Mr..
Grupe said: when 1 left Havana two
weeks ago the inhabitants were not in
the slightest fear that the city would
be hpmbarded. In fact, everything was
going the same as usual The theatres,
dancing halls. business of every char
acter. were fiourishing. and but for the
presence Of troops In the city you
would never know war was in prog
ress.
''The blockade at Havana has thus
far not proved very effective. The
farms around the city furnish all the
supplies necessary. The soil Is so fer
tile that crops can be produced in 80
days. There is no scarcity of provi-
sions in Havana. nor has there been
any perceptible advance in price or
food.
There are 40, 900 regular soldiers apd
25, 900 volunteers in the city. About 3000

EAST PROVIDENCE.

A brindle bulldog, the town of East

dence. Lawton by name. and possibly

VIII probably be presented for the first

"A few weeks ago j. N. Smith, with the
assistance Of several officers, pounced
upon a lot OF men at a dog fight near
the Pawtucket line. shot one dos TOOK
the other alive, together with dozen
or more men, who the next morning
were fined. The brindle dog was left
at the police station as memento OF
the affair. and a night or two later was
spirited away. An investigation re-
vealed the fact that the dog was owned
by : syndicate of Providence and Bos-
a teamster at Fox Point. The sum OF
$125 was offered by representative of
the syndicate the next morning after
the fight, who said he wanted the dog
for 'watching" purposes, pure and SIM
pie but the officers knew that this was
rather a steep price to pay for dog,
and came to the conclusion that the
representative had not told the truth.
Ths dog was then given to Mr.. Lawton
to care for, and now he wants his pay
for keeping him, but does not know
who to collect from. The owner OF the
dor will pay Mr.. Lawton the board
bill end 500 on top of II IL he can get
the dog, but Mr.. Lawton has had or
ders not TO deliver the brindle to any
one except by an order from some off,

dog and thereby reap the money. which
the town needs. and the society Is In a

At the railroad station last evening
some excitement prevailed In conse-
quence of the strained relations existing
between a man named William Evans
and Evalina Ceriera, both of whom
were before the District Court a few
days since. the former upon a charge of
having assaulted the woman and the
latter for being lewd and wanton per-
son. Evans paid fine of $40 and costs.
while the woman got six months at the
state workhouse. but later was liberat-
ed through the efforts of some OF her
relatives who came here from Montreal
for the purpose, and who then prevailed
upon her to return with them to that
city. She prepare@7to do this, and last
night secured her trunk at the home OF
Evans, with whom it is said that she
had lived as his wife for some time at
the corner of Main and School streets.
After her departure with the trunk
Evans became aware, he said, that she
had in the trunk articles belonging to
him, and he went at once to the depot,
where he demanded OF officer Slocum
that the trunk be not allowed to leave
the city. The officer had no authority
to hold the trunk. and so informed the
man. who then became angry. and
man who accompanied him used Ian
guage that prompted female relative
of the woman to resent IL In forceful
manner. and IL is claimed by the man
that she used knife. No one else saw
such a weapon, however, and the men
then went quickly to the police station
and endeavored to secure the holding
OF the trunk. but without avail. While
the men were gone the woman opened
the trunk and displayed the contents to
officer Slocum. who said that there was
nothing in IL except the wearing ap-
