About 2 O'Clock this afternoon,

of Ia warships, of which the
cruiser New York displayed the
flag of Rear Admiral Sampson,
and number of torpedo boats, b.
gan a heavy bombardment, with
the heavy guns of tue forts, in the
barbor of Santiago de Cuba. The
American fire was directed prin-
cipally against the forrs and the
harbor. The forts of MIRO Castle,
La Zocaps and Puuta Gorda sui
fered the most. The csnnonadiDg
was very persistent, and cannot
have failed to'be destructive. 1t
lasted until 3:45 p. m, The town,
which is situated near the inner
end of the harbor, escaped dam
age. At 3:45 a. M, the cannona
ding diminished. At 3 o'clock
cannon discharges were heard at
a distance, presumably at sea, and
contipued for some time, when
the firiug ceased completely. Th-
Spanish Authorities maintain
strict silence as to the number OF
victims, which was apparently
large.

A Fine New Picture.

The Burning Of Hinckley," Is the
title of picture which NJ. n. Brewer
of st. Paul has just exhibited. We clip
from the Pioneer Press the following
description of the picture. which meas
ures fourteen by nine feet, and which
has taken tour years of constant work
to complete.
The problem OF composition IN q
scene of confusion is of the Cravest; the
proportions of sentiment in a whirl-
wind of horror are not easily kept; the
technique of anybody who would paint
fame must he of the cleverest. Mr..
brewer has studied fire light effects
from burning brush He has posed, for
one OF bis models, a woman who escap-
ed from that great conhagration. His
labors have certainly been conscienti-
Gus. His background is fame and ter
ror-fames that swirl and sweep across
4 black sky. Through the darkness a
silhouette is dimly seen of a madly
rushing COW and a pair of horses with
streaming names. The madness ofthe
moment is vivid Whether it quite es-
capes beng grotesque Is another ques-
ton.
In the middle background is church
splre, just the cross peeping out from
the tumult or the smoke storm. A rush
Of flame bursts up from the hidden
roof.
A number of people are grouped in
the center. One of them, kneeling
woman, with hands lifted in PRAYER, is
finely wrought and gives that exalta-
ton which saves the picture from be-
ing a subject for the chamber of hor-
rors. Another woman is lying full
length, fainting. Her child witches
at her dress TO waken her. A man fall
Ell to his knees covers his face in an
guish. PROSTATE figures, half naked
are dying under the scourge and suf-
location of the heat. The elements are
we'll conceived; it would not be easy to
say, without long study, whether they
had been brought into unity; whether
the harmony of 80 many diverse
thoughts had been attained. Adverse
criticism might be made on some OF
the drawing. but the coloring is ably
handled without question. The flesh
tints n the inky glow are not pretty,
but they are true. The little tongues of
flame creeping in the grass are right :;
the Blush smoke lowering near the
ground is right-as near as flame can
be painted"

A Grand Success,

The patriotic entertainment arranged
bv the ladies of the First NJ. F.. Church,
and given Tuesday evening. was sue
cess IN every particular. A large au-
dIence was assembled, and the program
consisting of speeches, interspersed
With vocal and instrumental music, was
we'll received. The church was beauti-
fully decorated with bunting and flags:
large shield bearing the motto "Our
Army and an anchor with "Our
Navy" inscribed upon it were espec-
Tally noticeable. and when Rev. Tull an
nounced that he expected to .eave the
decorations up until Cuba was free, his
words were greeted with rounds of ap-
plause. DIR. Bolton spoke most elo-
quently of the Old and new soldiers
and in his full regimentals looked as if
ne might lead an army TO victory him
SELF. Miss May Whitney as Clara Bar
ton. made great hit, and Prof. Frazier,
who was the bulletin man, had MANY
amusing and pat cablegrams to read
Mayor Dietrich and Attorney Geo. c.
cooper made rouSing speeches, and the
vocal selections of Miss Bradshaw and
Mr.. Hamilton, We're as usual, delightful,
Mrs. a. b. Black looked to perfection
the part of Queen regent of Spain, and
the little tots who sang, Misses Pearl
Schuster, Jessie Coleman and Zelna
Elk, captured the hearts of their hear
ers. Master Hayden Pick ering, dressed
IN an army Overcoat and carving a gun
paced back and forth on the platform,
As sample of the boys OF '6l Miss Iva
Andrus rendered a violin medley of

we must not orget TO mention the ac-
c"mpansts, Prof. Wells, Mrs. Orr and
Mrs. Austin, who as usual added much
to the success of the entertainment
the affair was especially ENJOYABLE. and
Melted the ladies the neat sum OF fifty-
seven dollars.
