PREACHED OF PLAGUE.
Because 1t Was in the Sermon He
Bought.

Many years ago an English clergyman
in small town preached as his own a
sermon that he had bought, and which
had been originally preached in London
when the plague was raging in that city.
After reproving the vice of the people the
sermon went on:
"For this vice it is that God has Wis
tied you and your families with that cruel
scourge the plague, which is now spread
ing everywhere in this town.
At his uttering these words the people
were all so thunderstruck that the Chief
Magistrate was obliged to go to the pulpit
and ask him:
For Gods sake, sir, pardon the inter
ruption, and inform me where the plague
is, that may instantly endeavor to pre-
vent its further spreading"
THE plague, sir?' replied the preacher.

ONLY WAIT FOR A SIGNAL.
The Native Cubans Pinning Faith
to the United States.

New York, April II. - Chief Officer
Frank Crosslin, of the British steamer AL
odene which has just arrived from Ma
tanMs, Cuba, said:
when an American army reaches Cuba
the people will flock to its ranks. All
Cubans want is a surety of help and they
will rise in body They were won by
the magnificent gifts of clothing and food
and are longing for American interference
and many of them want to become part
of the states.
"The Spanish soldiers are among the
weakest specimens of humanity that
could be found anywhere, and the most
dissatisfied lot. Most of them are boys,
who are poorly clothed, poorly fed, never
paid, and homesicll all the time. Deser-
tions are frequent.
The Cubans are pinning their faith on
the United States and waiting for a sig
nal to rise in thousands. They could I'M
der no circumstances be brought to fight
against the United States. junta or no
iunta. To this country they look for their
liberty"
From the deck of the vessel. he said,
every night CONGREGATIONS could be seen
in every direction outside of Havana and
Matanzas, caused by the burning Of crops
and plantation buildings
One of the engineers of the steamer
Saratoga, which has just arrived from the
south coast of Cuba, said :"Around Man
nnillo the skies were aglow at night with
the fires Of blazing plantations. The mis-
cry in the towns is dreadful. No sooner
does "A ship tie up than there is a crowd
of poor creatures around her begging for
food. The feeling against Americans is
very bitter among the Spanish part of the
population"
IF something is not done" interjected
a younger engineer, 1.-THE life of American
sailors in any ports of the southern coun-
tries will be unbearable. They all say
with a grin: Americans all bluff; big
mouth; all talk no fight In Cuba the
average Spaniard believes there will be no
trouble in whipping the United States.
They think the Maine was the finest ship
that the United States had, and they say
they will serve the rest as the Maine was

LEASE OF THE NEW ENGLAND
 ROAD

Boston, March 1.-The railroad com- mittee of the legislature gave a hear ing this morning on the recommends tion of the board of railroad commits sioners for a permission bill for the lease of the New England railroad by the New York, New Haven and Hart ford railroad. The commissioners ap- peared before the committee and the provisions of the bill were explained, including a section providing for a change of the corporate name of the road. It was pointed out that of the 5000 miles of track operated by this company, nearly half, 1,400 miles, are in this state, which makes the present name seem hardly appropriate. There were no remonstrants.

OPERATION OF TREPHINING.

Performed on an Italian at New Haven
 Hospital Yesterday Afternoon.
 Frank Arnoni, an Italian of 3S Fair street, who while camping with a com panion in shanty near Cobalt this state, last Monday night was struck in the head and severely injured by a piece of metal from an explosion, un- derwent the operation of trephining at the New Haven hospital yesterday af- ternoon, and although he is in criti- cal condition, hopes of his recovery are entertained. He. with Michael Rose, went to Middletown last Monday morn ing to look through the country about there for junk. Towards night Mon day they they came across a small wooden shanty near Cobalt and decided to camp there for the night. They built a small fire on the shanty floor. Arno- nj was just throwing on more wood and was bending over the fire, when an explosion occurred and Arnoni fell, having been struck in the forehead by small piece of metal. Rose cared for him during the night and the next morning helped him back to Middle town, where they took a train for New Haven.
 Arnoni was taken to his home on Fair street, and was attended by Drs. D'Elia and Verdi, who ordered him taken to the hospital for treatment.
 Rose thinks that the explosion was caused by a dynamite cap being placed in the fire. The shanty had been used by quarrymen and he thinks that the cap was in some of the debris which he and Arnoni placed on the fire.
