sANTTAGO DE CUBA FROM THE HILLS.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA FROM THE HILLS.
and is the best defined mountain chain
on the island From Cape Cruz it rises
first in a succession of terraces, and soon
attains the altitude of 5, 40 feet at the
crest of the Ojo del Toro (Bullseye)
peak, 90 miles from the cape, This in
crease in elevation is continued as the
crest of the sierra is followed eastward
until it eliminates at a height of $500
feet or more in the celebrated Blue peak,
or Pico Turquino. about half way be.
tween Cape Cruz and Santiago de Cuba.
Near the Turquino spurs are sent
toward the north into the valley of the
Cauto as far as the vicinity of Bayamo,
giving an undulating character to the
south side of that famous tropical val
ley. From the Turquino eastward the
name of Sierra Maestro is dropped, and
that of Sierra del Cobre, or copper
range. is substituted Here are found
the copper mines of Santiago de Cuba
In the Cobre range, a short distance
east of Santiago de Cuba, is great
block of conglomerate measuring $50
feet in length by 45 feet in width rest
ing on the top Of truncated pyramidal
peak $500 feet above the sea and known
as La Gran Piedra
In this vicinity the southern coast

merged with the main backbone Of the
island coming from San Antonio on the
west and the maze of the cuchillas be.
comes now the dominating geographical
feature, while great number of streams
rising close together send their waters
into far separated seas.
"This extremely broken and precip.
itous country, occupying as it does a
large portion of an entire province, has
caused it to be the least known as it is
the most difficult of access of any of the
political divisions Of the island. Roads
here are few and poor, but the great di
versity Of products, due to the rapid
change in the climate which is caused
by the difference in elevation, makes
the region one of the most wonderful in
the world. The cascades, cataracts and
natural portals, surrounded by an ever
verdant foliage combined with numer
Gus species of Towering orchids and
other tropical flowers and with animal
life in all its gayest colors, present
picture such as is furnished at but few
points on the globe. F"
Santiago de Cuba was the first per
manent settlement made in Cuba
Owing to the towns inclosed situation
the atmosphere is close and sitting, and
the place is not healthy 1t is the second
commercial port in the island Its prin
cipal exports are liquors, hides, cocoa,
coffee. tobacco, guavas and pineapples
The daily yield of the copper mines in
peace times is several tons. American
capitalists own the iron mines.
All sorts of obstacles have been over
come by our troops in their siege of the
city, for the country in which they
have been fighting is probably as rough
and rugged as any into which American
soldiers have ever been sent.

For thirteen years Mrs. George L. Rogers,
Of West Main Street, Canton, N. Y, suffered
from the undesirable tortures OF inflam-
matory rheumatism.
Only persons who have been afflicted
with this disease know what such suffer-
ing is.
Those who have never felt the pangs OF
this ailment have not the remotest idea of
Its tortures.
For years this was an obstinate disease
to cure.
In recent years, however, there has beea
formulated remedy which successfully
eopes with it.
The many cures effected by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People attest to that fact.
One OF the striking examples is Mrs.
Rogers experience.
In speaking of 1t to a reporter she said;
Thirteen years ago was attacked with

No railroads connect the southern
town with the western provinces of the
island. One little railroad winds up
through the mountains to the northward
for few miles, ending in the foothills
Of the Sierra de Nipe, and another still
shorter, climbs up to the iron and cop

only way of reaching any distant town
Is by mountain pass or wagon road.
Although seldom visited, the eastern
province of the island is, as Columbus
said, 1.-THE fairest land that the sun
shines on or that the eye has ever seen. {"
Colonel Rowan, in 1.-THE Island Cuba, :"
says:
In the province Of Santiago de Cuba
the range extending from Cape Cruz
along the southern coast toward Cape
Maysi forms junction in the central
and eastern parts with that traversing
the middle of the island, creating, as
might be anticipated, an intricate sys-
tenn Of verdure clad elevations cut into
sharp and we'll defined ridges known as
cuchillas, or knife edged crests, as dis.
tinguished from the series of peaks gen.
orally styled sierras or saws.
1.-THE first mentioned range is called
the Sierra Maestro, or Master range,
