lDynamite Cruiser's Operations at Santiago
Il Arc Exciting General Interest.
Great interest is being manife tested the

There are three Of these dynamite tubes
on the Vesuvius, all the same length

The largest size is the one used at San

The chief difficulty in this weapons

compressed, SO that Is feet of it is in a

and breech carefully locked. When all
is ready, the trigger is pulled, and with
a swish ending like the scream of fast

it is mile and half, though it will
shoot much farther for $50 pounds of

being considerably more powerful. The
range is regulated by the air pressure,
and this is found to be very reliable in
it's practical working. The Vesuvius can
be made very useful if she is so anchor

has the power Of 1000 pounds of gun

FROM HOBsON'S MOTHER.

A Letter Telling of Her Pride In Him.
Her Hero Before the Nations.
This letter from the mother Of Lieu
tenant Richmond P Hobson, the hero
OF the Merrimac exploit, has been re-
ceived by a friend in New York:
GREENSBORO, Ala. June IL.
DEAR -: Your letter of congratulations
reached HE few days ago. fully appreciate
and agree with you in your enthusiastic trib-
ute to my boys heroism. In accomplishing
his daring achievement realize he was guided
and protected by our kind Heavenly Father
The appreciation of the country his state and
native town is most gratifying to us ALL 1t is
but natural that my mother pride should be
pleased at the recognition Of my boy by the
nation and its rulers. Such recognition is
very happy, but it has told us nothing new of
his grand worth. A nobler son no mother
ever had. He has been mighty tower of
strength to me for years. Never forgetting
the many demands of large household, it has
always been his pleasure to share his salary
with us. In every way he has been a help and
a comfort. The three years he was studying
abroad there never failed to come from him
the most loving letters, and his resources were
ever at our command. The gentlest, noblest
nature, with every attraction of person and
character, he claims the admiration of every
one who knows him. To us, nearest and dear
est to him, it took no Santiago to proclaim
him hero. He has been to us for so long the
truest hero, as noble son and idolized brother
The plaudits of the world are his, and, while
history will record the daring deed of his hero
ism, the gentler, sweeter, nobler beauty of his
nature can be known only to those to whom
he is ssfirst BEST ***
It may be that on Richmond's return I shall
be in New York, when hope to see you. OF
course shall very eagerly share all the glories
that will be heaped upon my boy. Our own
state is preparing now to present him jewel
ed sword. **~ Affectionately yours,

MExICANS WATCH THE WAR;
How the Descendants of Spain Take tho
Present Conflict.

how tho Descendants of Spain Take tho
Present Conflict.
Speaking Of the Spanish sentiment in
Mexico, Mr.. J. T. Flynn, a mining en-
gineer from the City of Mexico, says:
"The native Mexicans are sympathetic
with the United States. There is great
feeling exhibited in the war by all the
nationalities. The government has given
strict orders to maintain a neutrality,
and it is done. The wealth is mostly
controlled by the Spanish. They have
sent much food, ostensibly to the recon-
centrados, but in reality it goes to the
Spanish army in Cuba. Just the other
day they loaded a Norwegian vessel
with a cargo for Cuba. These vessels
land, their stuff at some port which is
not under strict blockade. They man
age to slip in vast amount Of provi-
sioas and money. ..- 81.
I'm the City of Mexico we have an
American club and a Spanish club.
Both organizations watch the progress
Of the war closely. We get our dis
patches from the Associated Press, while
the Spaniards get their news from Mad
rid. They believe everything they get
over their wire, and it keeps them busy
hearing corrections and retractions. -

 Still Mystery.
Special to the Age-Herald.


 Montgomery, Ala, March 14-The re- mains of the late W. w. Scruggs, who was shot and instantly killed at Riverside Park Saturday afternoon by R. N. Chisenhall were sent to Nashville yesterday morning where his relatives reside. The body was laid to rest in the Nashville cemetery this afternoon.
 Scruggs had been in the city but two weeks, having come here directly from Nashville in quest of employment. He was a candy-maker- by occupation and had se- cured few days. work at the Randy Kitchen during the past week. He was about 22 years old.
 Just how the trouble originated will, per- haps not be known until the trial shall have been concluded, as the prisoner de- clines to talk. It had its origin, however, over a card game being played inside the old Branscomb bar, near the grand stand at the exposition grounds, which was in progress up to few minutes before the killing. Both men were under the in- fuence of whisky, and realizing this, it is said, Chisenhall was advised to and did leave the bar and return to the camp in the old machinery hall about 400 yards dis tant He was, according to statements of eye witnesses, followed to the camp by Scruggs, who commanded him to come out. Upon his refusal, it is said, Scruggs pick ed up a brick and threw it through a win dow at Chisenhall. It was at this juncture, it Is said, Chisenhall stepped aside, aimed and fired a 3S-calibre Smith & Wesson re- volver, the ball taking effect immediately below the heart. deflecting downward.
