MOTHERS. LONG JOURNEY
Mrs. Hinkle Travelled Many Hundred Mile.
to Bid Her Son Goodby.

Mrs. Hinkle Travelled Many Hundred Miles
to Bid Her Son Goodby.
A pathetic scene was witnessed at
Port Tampa the other morning when a
poor, loving old mother came all the
way from Indiana to bid goodby to her
son, who is member Of battery of
the Second artillery. Her name is Mrs.
L. D. Hinkle, and her sons name is
Osman. He is tall, fine looking young
fellow of % years, who enlisted one
year ago at Fort Sheridan.
When Mrs. Hinkle got off the train
at the artillery camp, she was kindly
directed to her sons quarters by Major
Randolph. When they reached Der sons
side, she threw herself into his arms
and wept bitterly. She offered Captain
Oapron Of the battery 81, 900 if he would
procure her sons discharge from the
army. The poor woman had only a few
dollars in her purse. She told Captain
Capron that she would have come ten
times the distance to say goodby to her
son. She will remain at Port Tampa
several days. Cincinnati Enquirer. 4

Patriotic Miss Helen Gould is deter
mined to do some thing TO aid her coun-
try in its war with Spain to down op.
preston - Cuba. a short time ago she
sent her check for 800, 900 to President
Kinley to be hsed as he deemed prop
er in the war and intimated il the let
ter which accompanied it that she
would like to double the amount. This
check was returned by the president be-
cause under the law he had no power
to acceptit. Miss Gould was disappoint-
ed BY the result attending her PATRIOTIC
offering, but she was not discouraged.
She consulted Mrs. sLedyard Stevens Of
63 East Seventy eighth street, New
York, and was advised by her to .expend
the money in sending soldiers to Cuba.
This | proposition met with Miss
Gould's appreciation, and at the sugges.
ton Of Mrs. Stevens George II. Barbour
was consulted as to the best way to car.
ry out the project. After conference it
was decided that Mr.. Barbour should
procure commission from the Cuban
authorities. as briga3ier general, with
authority to raise four companies of cav
airy of go men each to serve in the Gu.
ban army and to be under the orders of
Cubans exclusively. Miss Gould agreed
to pay all the expenses of recruiting
these men, to purchase uniforms, horses
and equipments and to pay all trans.
portation to Cuba. This project was
submitted by Barbour to the war de-
partment, and he Was told that if he
landed in Cuba free of expense to the
government that the United States
would supply the men with arms and
ammunition. Mr.. Barbour received his
commission and authority to raise the
troops, and having completed his bust
ness with the war department left
Washington recently to recruit his men.
He is authorized to offer each man $50
a month who joins his command
General Barbour said that he had re-
ceived assurances that he could raise
one cavalry company in Washington,
one in Philadelphia and two in New
York and that after he makes hurried
visit to New York he will begin recruit
ing the men. He said that the greatest
difficulty was to obtain a first class
quartermaster and adjutant. General
Barbour expressed himself as being GER
tain that his troops would render the
Cubans much aid and that their pres
ence would encourage the insurgents to
continue their fight for liberty. New

read a little peculiar. One was "Nel-

that the republican party prided it's
self upon it's friendship for the old
