know q field, a sunny feel,
But not in sunny France,
And there is neither CLINT of shield
Nor CLEAN of pennoned lance,
Nor does the wind toss kni ;htly plumes,
Nor silken tents unfold,
And yet in autumn it becomes
The field of the cloth of gold.
For when the haze of summer days
Has melted from the skies
And we, without reproof, may gaze
Up into heavens eyes,
A host their plumes and banners shake
In ioust with breezes bold,
And goldenrod's bright champions make
The field of the cloth of gold.
The butterflies with blazoned wings
Are heralds for the fight,
Aud many lovely lady filings
Her token to her knight.
And so amid their gorgeous suite,
With pomp and wealth untold,
Summer and autumn royalty meet
On the field of the cloth of gold.

hit it right every time. Therefore much con

Senator Mason's Bitter Criticisms.

Administration newspapers cannot accuse
Senator Mason, of Illinois, of making charges
against the War Department for political ef-
feet for he has been one of the Administra-
tons warmest supporters. Yet he says:
Shameful, disgraceful, Internal, damna-
ble-there is no word or term too strong to
use. Some one has Numbered Yes, it is
well to say that now, when it is too late.
But some one is responsible for allowing any.
one to hold position where his laundering
would hurt. Will the apology of the govern
ment, some one has Numbered, give us back
our dead? Will it cause us to forget the sui!
ferings of our fever-stricken boys? Will it
fill the aching void of our hearts? Is it balm
sufficient to heal the torn and broken hearts
that are bleeding in thousands of homes
throughout the land? Will it make us forget
the agones of our families, the bloody sweat
of our camp? Some one. has blundered 7
What an excuse for a government TO make
through the Secretary of War.
'Tais is the crime of the century, the trag-
edy OF the nation. Our soldiers have not
poured out their hearts blood on the altar of
their country, but have been crucifed by
laundering and plundering officialdom. Our
heads are bowed in deepest woe; we must bow
them lower with every shame. All the world
acclaimed one hundred days war. Every
tongue was afame with the glory of America.

the world is stricken dumb with horror
Christianity is aghast, and we've are listen
ing to the apology of the government. Some
one has blundered, and look on with stream
ing eyes at some ones blunders being manu-
featured.
II do not criticise the army itself. Officers
and men have behaved and fought as Ameri-
cans. Their gallantry is the one theme we
can go back to with pleasure. But do con-
denim the commissary departments and the
medical departments with all my strength and
power, and hope very soon to see thor

thought to get an absolutely pure article, free

accomplish this than by buying direct from
the distiller. Did you ever stop to think
when buying gallon of whiskey how many
profits you have paid from distiller to jobber,
from jobber to retail dealer and from retail
dealer to consumer; three profits added to
the cost. In buying from dstiller you pay
one fair profit, get goods direct from the dis

Havana Omcors Say they VIII Got
Their ConI From Key West.


New YORK, April ,-Senor Leopold
Dolz. professor Of law at the Havana
university, who arrived with other
Cubans on the steamship Seneca from
Havana, in an interview, gave out the
following statement regarding affairs
In Cuba.
al left Havana with my family be-
cause / believe the opening of hostili-
ties means the massacre of all the
Cubans and Americans. All the Amer
leans, or very near all, have left Ha-
vana and those remaining either pro
fess TO believe that there will be no
war, or even If there shall be, that
they are as safe as IL in the United
States. Others say they will have
ample time to get away in case of
danger When we left Havana it was
quieter than New York The Span
iards believe the armistice was brought
about by the United States and that
It meaus the end of all the trouble
between the two countries. Just the
same they are concentrating their
troops in the large seaport towns and
are mining all the harbors. Two large
magazines have just been completed
IN Moro castle. The Spanish officials
have a complete list of all the Span
iards and Cubans between the ages of
II and 45 years that can bear arms,
and If there is war all will be drafted.
THE troops and officers believe vic
tory over the Americans absolutely
certain. The volunteers are quiet at
the present time, but it is generally
understood that they will fall to and
massacre every Cuban and American
the moment war is declared l would
not give dollar for the life of either
American or Cuban in Havana after
the first gun is fred
where do the Spaniards expect to
get coal?' was asked.
"Ah, | am glad you mention it,
| When they are asked what they ex-
pect to do for coal and food when war
is declared they fippantly reply
there is plenty in Key West. We
will go and take it. So confident are
they of victory that the planters have
had lawyers draw up a statement of
their losses, which they say they will
make the United States pay when 'the
Yankee pigs get all they want and
SUI for mercy"
