Italian critic, known as Amicis, was
adding to his reputation by translating
them. Fasteurath was calling them to

In 1887 Porto Rico was again too I'M
comfortable-owing to official persecu-
tion-and the TICS came to New York,
whence they soon went to Cuba. Then
the poeteSs, who for some years had
been gathering and classifying the
shells Of the Antilles as q recreation
and diversion from her political and IL

SeVral eminent naturalistS, who
brought her to the notice of their

high among the worlds conchologists,
as a poetess she is read with keen
emotion and delight wherever the
Spanish language is understood, and as
q public speaker she is one of the lead
ers Of Porto Rican thought. An exile
from her native island of Porto Rico
and refugee from Cuba, whence she
fed from the wrath Of Weyler with
her husband, also an exile some time
before the butcher was recalled, she is
living in New York city with Senior Tic
and their daughter, a graduate In phi
losophy from the University of Ha-

The Tic home is charming center of
the intellectual life of the Porto Rican
colony, and affords an admirable illus

Porto Rico is SO famous. There the

Sonora Tic, "The Nightingale of the

was born in the Villa de las Tomas,
San Yerman, in September, 1851. Her

been augmented intensely, now that
he learned from his esteemed friend.
Carlos de la Tore, that the queen of
verse had rare knowledge of shells as
well as rhythm. He begged her to ac-
cept few specimens from the islands
Of the Pacific. With the letter came
complete collection of the shells of the
Philippine islands.
While the TICS were in Cuba Sonora
Tic entered the University Of Havana.
and in due course was graduated from
that famous seat Of learning with the
degree of Doctor Of Philosophy. Senior
Tic was busy with his editorial work,
and the pOetess carried on her propag-
anda against Spanish oppression In
1892 her fourth volume OF poems ap-
peared, and the Spanlsh-speakirg
world accorded it hearty welcome.
The outbreak of the revolution gave
much encourag cement to the cause for
which the TICS had dedicated their
lives, but with the coming Of Weyler
they soon suffered a persecution COM
pared to which their troubles in Porto
Rico were mild inded, and they were
glad to escape with their lives.
