HOSTILE TO AMERICANS,
II Leads to all Sorts of Charges Being
Made AKaina. Them


Havana. March 21.-The SUMS Ha-
vana cable says: Miss Clara Barton
has asked from General Blanco per-
mission to establish large farms where
the reconcentradoes may til the ground
and make living for their families.
She has offered to give them all the
agricultural tools they may need. It
Is doubtful whether permission will
be granted, because the plan has
aroused the Spanish to great indigna-
tion. They declare Miss Clara Bar
tons project is the result OF an annex
ntionist plot. FL COrreo and La Union
Constitutional attack the American
lady. saying that under cover of char.
ity she came here to conspire against
the Spanish government.
The hostility against the Americans is
so great that Diario De Lamarina. in an
energetic editorial this morning. pro-
tests against the idea of using the
Spanish floating dock 10 raise the hull
Of the Maine. Though the dock was of
fered to the Americans by Admiral
Manterola himself and they refused it,
yet there is some talk that its effect
iyeness in raising rhe Maine may yet
be tried. Diario says there is a das-
tardly conspiracy in the American con
sulate to keep the dock busy now and
to make it useless as soon as war is
declared, AT least for n year or two.
An unhappy occurrence has still far
ther excited the public here. Last
night the naval officer Joaquin Rivero,
commanding the gunboat Cometa, was
stabbed twice by an unknown man as
he left the theater. His nssaiiant sue
ceeded in escaping through the crowd
In spite OF all efforts of the police to
catch him. While some believe that
the affair was wholly a personal one.
many ascribe ii to a political origin.

Cooking lessons for men only are
advertised in Boston. It Is another
sign of the advancement of woman.
1t means less dyspepsia, but unavoid-
ably less marriage. The woman goes
into the counting-room. the store and
the business office. She thereby de-
prives the other sex OF work and drives
them to the drawing-room and the
kitchen. Will there presently be les
sons for them in sewing and embroid-
cry? Will the new man pound the
piano and give pink teas! And will
all that end some day In revolution?

1t is considered coincidence that
Miss Duer, in wedding Mr.. Mackay, Is
marrying a man much shorter than
herself. as was the case in the mar
Rage of Miss Vanderbilt to the Duke
Of Marlborough. Mr.. Mackay may be
short In stature. but he 10 long In
purse. The duke was short both in
purse and stature. but he was long in
title. His line was the proper mathe-
matical line. length, without breadth
or thickness. It is not absolutely
necessary that = man shall be taller
than his wife unless they are playing
lovers parts on the stage. And in
that case Mr.. Goodwin's custom Of
wearing French heels and long trous-
ers is most enicacious. To the best Of
our knowledge the stature of the duke
was not taken into account for . mo-
mont by Miss Vanderbilt, and Miss
Dusr was never moved by the rehec-
ton that Mr.. Mackay stopped growing
q little too soon. True love rises above
such petty considerations.

Influence Of Magnetism.

Professor Burton has published an inter

the influence that magnetism is exert!ng In
proving phenomena, which otherwise would

shows that In making railroad running

rails will become chrystallled and break, be

There will be four, and perhaps five

play. The pick from dozens of players
will fill other positions. Collins will
again pitch and Hendrickson will
catch. The former is now in first class
trim and will be harder to handle than
before.
The towns are not over-confident
but have a strong belief that they can
best the soldier boys. Jackson will
pitch, with Lemon as substitute; Cor
man will catch. Davis will play first

Willis in the nine and will go to the
field.

that large number OF soldiers viii

Military Hospital C0nTaleSCentS TO
Be Moved.
ON THE SLOPE OF PUNCHBOWL
Admirable Malaria Reach
es Independence Park-PriVate
Thompson's Case.

Convalescent patients at the post
hospital in independence Park will be
transferred today TO the new branch
establishment on the high ground on
the slope of Punchbowl. This is an
ideal place for them. The view is
superb, commanding the plains and the
ocean out beyond. Diamond Head is
silhouetted against the sky on the left
and the masts of the ships in the har-
Dor stand out against the distant hills
of Waianae on the right.
There are about twenty patients who
will be moved. Four tents have al
ready been put up and more will be
located there if needed.
Major Davis says the majority of the
patients now at the hospital are there
because of malaria. He believes mala-
ria germs are in the air which is blown
up from the low lying rice fields and
duck farms He states that the men
by carelessness in camp frequently
make themselves peculiarly suscepti-
BILE to the malarial germ. There are
now 115 in the hospital, some of whom
are in critical condition.
The case of Private Thompson OF
Company H. First New York, whose
death was recorded in yesterdays Ad-
vertiser is one of the saddest which has
occurred in that regiment. Thompson
was from a well-to-do family in Utica
and had been in the drug business, but
at the time of his enlistment he in
tended entering a medical college for
perfect specimen of physical manhood
and an expert bicycle rider. In this
field he had won many prizes at tour
naments. No one thought when he
first entered the hospital, one month
ago, that his indisposition would prove
anything but temporary. But like new
snow before the sun, his strength melt
ed away, under a continual fever, rang
Oped into the most acute form of quick
consumption and the end came quick
ly. When his comrades came to view
the remains they could not recognize
the stalwart youth of a few weeks
ago. so emaciated had he become.
The soldier dying on the field of bat
tie in this war is instantly placed
among the heroes of the republic. His
name is heralded throughout the land
and requiems of empire are told above
his bier. His family are raised far
above their natural standing and are
given the position of local aristocracy.
But the soldier who dies at military
post receives no such recognition. The
event may not be known to more than
half in his own regiment and it is soon
forgotten by nearly all. The sorrow
of the far away home is no less severe,
but it is there and there alone that
the loss is felt.
