By some inexplicable physiological

was to ask unanswerable questions!
"If it really is so, honey, it must be

Was Seth having his fling at her too?
She flushed under the suspicion, but
his next words dissipated it. "And

Havana newspapers are really enter
prising and for all editions the news
papers rush and grow vociferous as in
the Yankee cities. 1t is a little anus
ing, after glancing over columns and
pages of governmental manifestos,
pronunciamentos, bandos and the like,
to note the brief editorial paragraph
which says In effect Same old thing.
Words are they, signlfying nothing"
The political situation, so far as It can
be learned, has been given from time
TO time by cable. In this, as In the
general life beneath the splendor and
squalor. undermining alike the light
talk and the serious discussion, is that
current Of vague unrest which might
in -paradoxlcal fashion, be de-
scribed as Expecting the unexpected"
What tomorrow, what the next
stroke OF the clock may bring
forth, no man knows. His lack of
Knowledge does not impair his powers
OF guessing, however, and the prophet
ic surmises, logical or illogical deduc-
ticns, fears, hopes. assurances one
hears on every hand would be laugh
able were not the times so full of
frowns.
MOVEMENTS OF INSURGENTS.
OF the movements of the insurgents
the news that reaches the Havana gen.
eral public is, at best, meagre and
contradictory. Many of the advices
from the Eastern provinces must come
by steamer, via the North or South
coast. OF course there are hundreds
here in constant touch with Gomez,
Garcia and the lesser leaders, but they
do not bruit their intelligence abroad.
1t is known that since the recent ar
rests here for conspiring, very con-
siderable number of young Cubans
have left Havana for the field. A
high official is authority for the state
ment that there are constant donations
of money from residents in this and
other Cuban cities to Gomez in the
field or the junta in New York. There
is well accredited story of a rich
Cuban resident in one of the principal
cities Of the island, who, in the first
of the year has sent $4,000 cash to the
junta and as much more to the insur-
gent government. 1t is averred that
while many of the Spanish officers have
not been raid for four months and a
large proportion of the soldiery has not
received cent for six months, the in
surgents are we'll clad, we'll fed and
well armed, their only pressing need
being small arm ammunition. When,
or If. Senator Proctor talks in the SEN
ate he is likely to have much Of inter-
est to say concerning the insurgents
as well as the Autonomists and Span
iards.
