From the New York Sun.
1t was Diego Velasquez who founded
Santiago de Cuba in 1915, thus making
it the oldest town on the island. For
a long time Santiago was the capital
and the headquarters of the various
nurderous expeditions Of the Spanish
against the mainland. Cortez made it
his rendezvous during his conquest OF
Mexico. De Soto started from Santiago
In 1923 on his first expedition of ex-
ploratlon. By the middle of the century
the place had grown to be rich and i'm
portant. There was all kinds of wealth
there, the accumulation, doubtless, of
the plumber taken from the defenseless
Aztecs and the countless other victims
of Spanish lust and avarice.
In 1858, 4C0 French landed in the har-
Dor and didn't have much trouble in
capturing the city. not half so much
trouble as Sampson and Schley are
having now. This handful of French
held the town till ransom Of some $50
600 was paid. After this there were
frequent attacks by the numerous
bancs of buccaneers. and pirates that
infested the seas Of that time.
But the real attack, and the one that
has chief interest for americans Of to-
day. was in 1862, just 400 years before
Havana was captured by the Ameri-
cans and English, when Lord Winsor.
with fifteen vessels and less than 1000
men, English and Americans, succeeded

and as if just to show their spite, blew
up the MORO castle and DESTROYED the
cathedral. The MORO was rebuilt in
1863, and remains to this day-or rather

King of Spain at the time. and he was
angry that the English should be SO
rough with his belongings. 1t always
has been part of the Spanish nature to
get angry about little things and rave
in helpless rage
In 1852 the English took Havana, and
Santiago for while was left out Of
consideration. but not for long In 1866

half the city and putting 100 people out
OF the misery Of being Spanish subjects
Since that time the town has lived q

firing, in order to allow the smoke to
clear from the batteries.
When the order came at $50 to cease
firing every gun of the enemy had been
siienced for ten minutes, but as the
ships drew off some of the Spanish
courage returned, and a half dozen
shots were fired spitefully at the Mas
sachusetts and Oregon, falling in their
wakes.
Throughout the bombardment the
dynamite cruiser Vesuvius, by direction
OF the admiral. lay outside the right
nag. The launch of the flagship sour
ried amidst the ships carrying mes
sages.
MEN ARE -COMPLIMENTED.
AT the close of the action a stream
of multi-colored flags floated from the
New York. generally complimenting
the ships, and especially commencing
the work of the Texas and New Or
leans. The men on the New Orleans
raised a cheer, which was speedily
communicated from ship to ship, until
every jacky in the fleet was yelling
himself hoarse.
The destruction done at the western
batteries must have been appalling.
Many of the guns had been mounted
during the last two days. From this.
it would be inferred that Admiral Ger
vera had given up all hope of extrieat-
ing himself from the trap in which he,
is caught and had removed the guns
from some of his ships to strengthen
the land defenses.
Admiral Sampson is highly gratified
at the results Of the bombardment. He
thinks the western batteries are prac-
tically demolished. AS some of the
guns on the eastern batteries did not
fire, he thinks it possible they were
only dummies. The only regret ex-
pressed is that Lieut.. Hobson and his
crews presence in FL MORO made it
sa cred. Otherwise it would be a heap
of ruins.
FIVE THOUSAND SHOTS.
The number of shots fired was not
known when this dispatch was sent.
Judging from a position near the flag
ship, the New York fired 209 shots;
so from her eight-inch guns, 131 from
her siX-inch guns, AZ from her six
Founders, and probably 5000 shots were
fired of a total weight of 100000
pounds.

THE PRISONERS FRIEND.
His Lavish Generosity Said to Hay
Left His Wife Unnroyided For

His Lavish Generosity Said to Have
Left His Wife Unprovided For.
From the Hartford Comm Times.
NO one has questioned the kindness
or the good intentions of Henry c. L.
Dorsey, commonly called the prisoners
friend, who died at his home in Paw
tucket, r. l., few days ago. He knew
for himself what a prisoners life is,
and his sympathy flowed out to those
who are or have been in the same
plight. He must have done good in
extending helping hand to men fresh
from prison who wished to make a
fair start at an honest life He went
against all scientific principles again
and again, and some harm must have
resulted. For instance, the famous
Dorsey dinner, a turkey dinner to be
given once year to state prison con-
V1cts, is contrary to sound principles.
and the theoretical objection to it has
been sustained by experience.
The lack of sound balance which
marked his course in reference to pris
oners was exhibited in the manage
nient of his own affairs. Years ago
he was well off, for he gave away large
sums of money, spent freely, and dis
bursed large total sums every year
for long term of years. Yet he is
said now to leave his wife destitute.
1t this is true it is much to be hoped
that the next legislature will transfer
to her, if possible, the fund Of $1,000
which Mr.. Dorsey gave to the state
twenty-five years ago to provide the
annual turkey dinner for convicts. It
is worth notice that he made a. like
offer to the other states. but Connecs-
cut was the only one that accepted.
IL the offer was genuine, he had at
that time something like $780, that he
could afford to give away. It is fair to
assume that most Of this and what
ever else he had has been given for
the benefit of those in whom he was
so much interested or has been wasted
by carelessness.
He was not overwise. but he did
kindly according to his lights, and he
deserves more credit than can fall to
many ADLER and better informed men.
He would deserve more credit had he
provided as heedfully for the wife who
stood by him all these years as for
some of the benefciaries from whom
she herself had done so much. to please
him. and at his suggestion.

CHAMBERLAIN. S. D.. June &c.
Not since the palmy days of the Dakota
divorce industry has a case attracted
more attention than the suit for dam
ages brought by Mrs. Mile Manore
against Miss Grace Howard, daughter
of joe Howard Jr., the New York jour-
nalist. which win be tried during a
term of circuit court now in session
here.
Rather than court the publicity GER
tain to result from the trial of the
case. it has been believed in some quar-
tiers that the matter would be COM
promised, but it is now certain that
both sides are determined to fight the
case to the bitter end, regardless Of
consequences.
In July, 1897, Miss Howard establish
ed an Indian mission school on the
Crow Creek and Winnebago Indian
reservation, seventeen miles from
Chamberlain. 1t was afterwards
transformed into a government con-
tract school, ard II = year, OWING
chiefly to the bitter fight made in con-
gresS against Indian contract schools,
Miss Howard decided to sell her school
to the government. A satisfactory
price was paid, and she soon afterward
purchased a cattle ranch west Of here
on White river, and embarked in the
stock raising business.
In November, 1894, Miss Howard en-
ployed the plaintiff and her husband
to work in the Indian school, then I'M
