LOYALTY oF CUBAN WOMEN.

Spain Has Had to Deal.

Cuban men In arms frequently pre-
sent themselves for pardon. No Cuban
woman has eyer been known to barter

less in their successful efforts to get
word from one scattered rebel band to
another, and to send them food, medi-
eines and clothing. These women were
far better consiprators than heir faith
ers and brothers, for Cuban men must
talk. and therefore rarely hatch a plot
before 1t IL revealed. The women in
that country, at least, seemed to know
the value of silence. They said little of
war, even among themselves, but TO
Americans they were singularly confid-
ing. This instantaneous and perfect
trust was at times startling, and made
one breathe n fervent prayer that 1t
might never be betrayed. 1t led 10
many strange experiences that could
be treated as news and sent TO Il daily
journal, for the required publication of
names would have tended to swell the
already o~vererowded and vile quarters
for women In the island jalls and pris-
ons. Beautiful and delicate senoritas
would impulslyely dress up in boys
clothes to illustrate TO Americans how
they stole out at night to the nearby
haunts of lover or brother In the Long
Grass" as the insurgents camps were
called; how they secreted food In false
pockets; how letters whose envelopes
had been dipped In Ink were hidden in
their black hair; how medicines were
carried In canes. and cloth for clothes
or wounds concealed In the lining of
their coats. One girl, disguised as n
yender, had frequently carried to the
woods dynamite in egg shells deftly put
together. She has had many thrilling
experiences, but her narrowest escape
was when a Spanish soldier by the road
side insisted on taking from the basket
an-egg, to let Its contents drop In a hot
and ready pan. He was with difficulty
persuaded to forego the meal. The
dynamite was made by another woman,
who carefully obtained the ingredients
at various times and at widely scatter
ed drug stores.

Pro!onging a Holiday.

A soldier sends a contemporary a
story of one of his comrades, a private,
who recently found himself an inmate
Of n military hospital. Immensely
pleased with his altered conditions, and
bllssfully conscious that his pay was
steadily running on, he felt positively
grieved one morning to find himself
feeling as well as ever he had done.
The doctor paid his usual visit with
the clinical thermometer, which found
a resting place under Tommy Atkins
tongue. While the physicians atten-
ton was distracted. however, the in
strument was gently transferred to a
basin Of hot tea standing near, and,
after a few moments, deity returned,
and finally handed back with the mer-
curry rigid at one hundred and twenty.

tor. aghast, his professional calmness
rudely shattered. you ought 10 be
