A Funny Fad.
The Philistine

OF all the fuzzy wuzzy fads for the i'm
provement of mankind none are so fuzzy
wuzzy as the Society for the Promotion Of
Christianity Among the Jews" This So
ciety expends about $l50,0c0 in England and
the same amount in America each year; the
money being supplied by nice men like Mr.
Rockefeller. If the average Christian were a
better citizen than the average Hebrew |
would join hands with the meek and lowly
PefferiteS who fan the fad and put nv
shoulder to the wheel. But the facts all
point the other way Among the Jews there
are very, very few paupers and drunkards
and the only jew / ever knew who kept a
saloon was one who had been Christianized
Statistics in penoogy show that in proper
ton TO population only One-f1fth as many
Jews as Christians are in state prisons
The Jews comprehend the moral code and
obey ii in way that sets us all fairly good
pace. and yet the men who raise money

ciety of well intentioned but awfully serious
people, he cannot but wonder how much
that man Charles Dickens had to do in
forming belief among sewing circles that
Jews are worse than other folks2 After
outdone 1t a bit. and to hold the average
good he fashioned another Jew who was
quite too virtuous for any use, but this did
not wipe out nor dilute Fagin.
Then there are in America two alleged
humorous papers that doubtless have tup-
pence worth of influence in the formation of
popular conceptions. And yet a casual Pc
rusal of the pages of Puck and Judge will
reveal TO the discerning person that the
publication OF these papers Is only possible
through political subsidy. cigarette adver-
tisements and whisky announcements Puck
and Judge own in partnership the model Of
a wooden Jew that they run out every

LAST BATTLE In CUBA
TROOPS HAVE SKIRMISH AMONG
THEMSELVES AT BARACOA.
The Transport San Juan Picks Up
1000 Mausers and a Quantity of
Ammunition at Sagua.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Sept. TO- $3.50 p m.
After an absence of ten days the transport
San Juan arrived to-day from Sagua de Tan
amo and BaracOa, with two thousand Maui
ser rifles and large quantity of ammuni-
ton from the Spaniards at Baracoa. The
San Juan carried four companies of volun-
teers for garrison duty, two companies for
each town. On arriving at Baracoa on Sept.
l. Major Wylly and two companies disem-
barked, and with due military ceremony,
raised the first American flag that had been
unfurled on the northern coast of Cuba.
1t was learned that over 1,5O0 Cubans,
under Brigadier General Prudencio Mar
tinez, were encamped about the town and
that a strict guard had been maintained by
the Spanish, who numbered eight hundred
men.
Major WHY'S camp was located on the
hill overlooking the town, which at 10
O'clock that night became the scene of the
last engagement of the Cuban war. The
forage lights on the distant hills were mis-
taken for an advancing army of Cubans,
supposedly to resent a patriotic demonstra-
ton that had taken place in the afternoon.
Captain Harris with two companies, was
ordered ashore from the San Juan and took
up a position in the plaza. guarding the
southern approach of the town. Major
Wyly, in establishing a line of sentries in
advance of the pickets, neglected to notify
the latter, who hearing footsteps on the hill
side, without challenging, fired about sixty
shots. No harm was done, but the men
were much demoralized and there was con-
siderable amusement among the Spanish Of
ficers over the incident.
AT Baracoa the sanitary conditions were
found fairly good, though there some
sickness. The poorer classes had suffered
much from the war. The San Juan left the
next day for Sagua de Tanamo where were
found $50 Spanish troops and 800 Cubans in
the vicinity of the town. The general health
there was good.
Colonel francisco Valiante chief of the
Cuban regiment, will be Gllowed to enter
the town with his forces after the departure
of the Spaniards. He will assist the civil
government at Sagua de Tanamo.

CHANCES IN PORTO RICO.
How Money Can Make Money ON the
Island.

Letter III New York Commercial Advertiser
Though the city is under martial law, the
municipal authorities remain unchanged
with the exception of the Spanish officials
and the customs collected on the old
tariff. Thus the German steamship arriving
in port the other day had to pay the old
exorbitant duties on its cargo of beer and
rice. Even on the flour she landed the old
tax of 81 a barrel was levied Ponce is
full of possibilities for capital however
Everything is undeveloped The Spaniards
ran the island with the old idea of turning
money over to the mother country. That is
what money they themselves didn't want
Nothing could be exported owing to the
duties, and manufactures were similarly
kept away. The tobacco crop can be in
creased twenty fold easily, for under the
Spanish regime there was no market for
the tobacco. 1t couldn't be exported owing
TO the duties. except to Cuba. All of it had

Then the sugar crop now amounting to
some 10000 tons annually, could easily be
doubled, as many suitable lands are now
uncultivated 1t can be raised as cheaply
here as anywhere. For $40 an acre the finest
kind OF land could he bought, all ready for
planting with some. Good land could easily
be bought at half that price. Then the coffee
crop has great possibilities, the quality of
the native coffee being excelled only by
Java At present. however, Porto Rican
coffee is almost unknown. Then there is no
good reason why many parts of the island
should not be devoted to truck farming. AT
present potatoes are almost understandable in
the island, and the early vegetables which
would be so priced in New York during the
winter season are also unknown. With
steamers running TO New York in five days
there would be no trouble in disposing there
even Of perishable freight. A line Of fast
American steamers undoubtedly will soon
be started to New York.
The openings for making money at Ponce
seem to me TO be inexhaustible In what
ever direction you look you are surprised
at the lack of ingenuity. OF brain that is
shown. The merchants have no biIlheads
nor cards, even, and everywhere you see
only very sluggish competition. TO be sure,

Maine Voters Expected to Vote as
They See Things.

AUGUSTA, Me-, Sept 10.-The political
campaign in Maine closed tonight with lit
tie activity having been displayed by either
the Republicans or Democrats The vot-
ing of Monday will be for Governor, MEM
bers of Congress, members of Legislature
and county offices. The Democrats claim
that they will have numerous gains. Chair
man Joseph II. Manley said tonight in the
way of forecast THE campaign which
closed tonight has been an exceptional one
on behalf of the Republican party. 1t is the
first time in the long history of the party
IN Maine that it has relied absolutely upon
the intelligence of the voters uninfiuenced
by any political speeches or the distribution
of any political literature.
The committee has faith that the verdict
on Monday will be an Endorsement of the
wise administration of Governor Powers and
of our distinguished United States senators
of Speaker Reed and our able congress-
men in the House of Representative.
The vote will be light one in compari-
son with that of 1896, for it must be re-
membered that this is what is termed an
of year in politics."

No Hardtack for Armed Cubans.

KEY WEST Fla. Sept. 1O.-The govern
ment at Washington has assumed a firm
stand upon the matter of supplying food to
the Cuban insurgents. Recently NJ. BalonZo
made a request upon General Lawton at
Santiago that certain Cuban troops at Dos
'Caminos and Cobre be supplied with food.
This application was in turn submitted to
the War Department by General Lawton.
1t is now learned that the matter was re-
ferred directly to President Mckinley, who
responded through General Corbin that no
subsistence or other stores would be issued
to any armed troops other than those of the
United States, the law providing that issue
be made only to inhabitants of Cuba who
are in immediate danger of perishing unless
they receive them. This decision is expected
to hasten the disarmament of the Cuban
forces in all parts of the island as soon as
it becomes known generally.

one railroad has been built on this island
during the many long years OF Spanish rule;
that a French company has the right to
build a railroad around the island, but the
time allowed-some eight yearS-lS already
very nearly expired and little Roadway has
been made.
The fine mineral springs in the interior
have been pre-empted, and several appica-
lions have been made for a street railroad,
but the charter for that will be awarded
to the bidder charging the lowest fares;
bids to be awarded in about three weeks.
To see the number of people Flooding their
way over the two miles of road separating
Ponce from its port is sufficient evidence
of the need of the road, if any evidence is
necessary to convince one of the money
makers power of a car line. Banks are
also needed those at Ponce being very
small foreign institutions If our tariff
with the island is abolished, as it must be
after annexation money put in almost any
where on the island will be doubled. Paid
for in silver currency, it can soon be sold
for the same amount in gold. OF course,
am assuming that the duties on sugar re-
main as they are at present.
Everyone remarks upon the cheerfulness
of the people. The natives everywhere seem
only too pleased at the success of the
lean rule and prosperity that inevitably fol-
lows our flag. 1t may.-seem strange that
with a population so fayorably disposed to-
ward our government so little was done by
them to aid us in capturing the island. For
many years the undercurrent of feeling
among almost all the natives. But the CON
ditions on this island were different from
those in Cuba. The Porto Ricans, at least
all those born on the island. feel little
bound toward Spain. The-proportion of
Spanish sympathizers is extremely small.
Out of a population of some million inhab-
itantS there are not more than twenty thou
sand of these provincial SpaniardS, and
they now are marked men. So unpopular
have they made themselves by the stand
they have taken that it would be wise for
them to return whence they came at the
very first opportunity. Five thousand of
them only are under arms, and these, with
about $4,000 Spanish troops, constitute the
bulk of the army. With such large body
of American sympathizers revolutions were
only prevented by the character of the
island itself. Not as large as Long Island,
the island has none of the rocky Businesses
which were of such great assistance TO the
Cubans. With the numerous good harbors
surrounding the island Spanish cruisers
were able to prevent any attempt at insur-
rection. Indeed, there was no opportunity
to organize and drill.
