SAN JUAN's HEROINE.

When the bombardment of Admiral
SIMPSONS feet began, Senorita Paul
inc Macias, the Governor Generals
daughter, was in the Governors pal
ace. She made her way to the batteries
and from there to the forts. She saw
the Spanish gunners, panic stricken,
fleeing from that hell of exploding
shells. SEEKING a sword she raised her
voice so that 1t could be heard above
the din Of the battle. She called upon
the soldiers to return to their guns.
Her face glowed as one inspired. She
waved her sword above her head and
cried to them in the name of their
country to rally about her and fight
until no life was left to fire a gun.
No NM with blood in his veins could
stand such an appeal The soldiers
ran back as swiftly as they ran away.
They turned their guns and fought,
with more GOODNESS and greater des-
peration then before. And Pauline
Macias stayed among them, like q bat

abled was she led away. and the men
cheered her as they should have done

From New York Sun; The ways IN
which violins Of famous make ana

varied. and no greater proof OF this
fact has been advanced for many years
than the discovery Of Thomas Jeffer-
sons favorite violin In the hands OF an
octogenarian negro near Charlottes-
vile, Va. The violin bears date OF

Il. The relic Of Jefferson and OF the
skin Of it's Italian maker was found
by Albert Hildebrandt Of 10 North LIB

brandt "a an amateur musician. The
story OF his discovery and what LED up
to It Is told by himself: Il happened
into BARRIERS shop kept by negro at
Charlottesville and incidentally asked
him my faYorite question; DO you
know of an old violin, as want to buy

that he sent one Of his men with me,
and soon we were on the road TO
Seott's home. about two miles from
Charlottesville, at the base Of the Mon
ticello Mountains and adjoining the
old Jefferson plantation John Scott
found to be an active, bright negro OF
SO years. When I saw him he was
working In the garden. asked to see
the violin, and ne brought from the cup
board a dilapidated double violin case
that had once been covered with leath-
er. So many years had elapsed, how
ever, since the leather was first placed
on the case that large part OF it had
come on In patches. Opening 1t saw
that the moths had had a feast with
the red lining. The instrument was
wrapped carefully In piece Of old
cloth, and the minute looked at It /
saw II was the best specimen OF Nico-
laus Amati's violins / had ever seen.
After a while / managed to strike q
bargain with the old man, and the vio-

artistically carved, the model and work

golden yellow color and the pegs are
Of ivory. All that was needed was q
few repairs, and now 1t is q singing
beauty. John Scott, from whom
bought the violin, told me that ne in
herited the instrument from his father,
who was a slave Of Thomas Jefferson.
After returning to Charlottesville with
my prize learned that Jefferson was
quite a good musician, q lover and
player Of the violin, and that he had
owned several valuable instruments OF
