crush Gomez. IF the insurgents got
short Of ammunition, they had reserve
stock Hidden in the mountains. Their
harness shops and arsenals are hidden
in the hills also It is easy to be seen
that it is a tedious task to suppress an
uprising in which all sympathize.
When the spirits Of the people are low,
Gomez or some one Of his generals in
vades Spanish province and makes a
show of fighting as proof that the revo-
luton is not dead.
The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1898-08-11

Twenty-Five years ago, when Gomez
was in his prime as fighter, he was a
dashing leader Of cavalry. The ex-Con-
federate General Jordan urged the in
surgents to make use of cavalry, and
they took his advice. The upper class
Cubans in arms at that time were rid
ers trained from boyhood. Horses were
more plentiful then than now, and some
Of the fiercest charges were made by
cavalry. Gomez led his men with a
dash through the Spanish ranks, hewing
away with the terrible machetes and
then, turning, plunged into the confus-
ed mass again. Men who are posted up
on the situation in Cuba say that the
best plan for this government would be
to furnish the insurgents with suitable
mounts and send them against the small
Spanish forces Of the interior.
There are but few scattered bands of
mounted insurgents in arms today. The
horses have been killed in battle or used
for food for the hungry soldiers. Being
small in stature and very 1.-the, the Gu
ban youth make splendid soldiers on
horseback. The Spanish soldiers are
from the peasant class and are too
clumsy for the cavalry. The few mount
ed men now fighting for Spain in Cuba
are renegade natives of the guerrilla
type, who in peaceful times lived the
lives Of our border outlaws. The Cuban
patriots love nothing better than to
hunt these miscreants down when they
have fleet steeds to match theirs. The
fighting Of Gomez's followers in west
ern Cuba is now confined principally to
the incursions by small bands Of cavalry
into Spanish territory. i5
The chief terror to these local bands
Of patriots is the Spanish guerrilla AS
far as possible the guerrillas initiate
the Cuban soldiers in dress and habit.
They Turk on the outskirts Of a camp.
and woe to the unfortunate patriot who
falls into their hands, It is the atroci-
ties Of these wretches which give to
the struggle the aspect of bloody civil
feud. The Cubans give them no quar-,
ter and will be slow to shake hands
with them or with the native volun-.
teers in the Spanish army after peace is
declared. In fact, the prospect is that
|a long and bloody civil war will follow
Spanish defeat.

For Your Summer Outing.

One Of the most delightful sections Of
the country in which 10 pass the hot sum
mer days is the famous mountain region
Df the Nirginias, on the line Of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Railway. No rail line In
the United States can offer 10 the pleasure
and health seekers so great a variety of at
fractions. Worldwide is the reputation
Of such resorts as the Virginia Hot
Springs, the Warm Springs, the Greenbri-
err White Sulphur Springs, the Red Sulphur
and the Rockbridge Alum Springs. Be-
sides these resorts for health and pleasure,
there are hundreds Of country homes In
the mountain region where board can be
obtained on the most favorable terms.
The people along the line Of the Chesa-
peake aud Ohio have made the care Of the
summer boarder special business, and il
Is safe 10 say one can secure better accom-
mOdations with them than in any part OF
the country.
The scenery on the Chesapeake and Ohio
il grand without being austere. Gentle
streams flow through mossy banks aud
over gravel beds, long visias open
through the rolling masses of hills, and
mountains. Delightful giades invite 10
rest, and one may walk or ride with GER
feet comfort in all directions. The climate
is equal. the days being mildly warm,
tempered 10y cool evenings and nights.
One does not experience great degrees Of
either heat or cold, aud there il always
the feeling Of energy and buoyancy that
the rare mountain air inspires. There IL
ozone and civilization 10 the atmosphere
during even the warmest season. aud per-
ions who are listless at home are surprised
90 find themselves taking keen delight In
long mountain walks, or IN riding or drlv-
iBg for miles over mountain roads. De-

Millions Given AWAY.

1t is certainly gratifying to the
public to know of one concern in the
land who are not afraid to be generous
to the needy and suffering. The pro-
prietors of Or. Kings New Discovery
for Consumption, Coughs and Colds,
have given away over ten million
trial bottles of this great medicine;
and have the satisfaction Of knowing
it has absolutely cured thousands of
hopeless cases. Asthma, Bronchitis,
Hoarseness and all diseases Of the
Throat, Chest and Lungs are surely
cured by it. Call on j. w. Kelly,
Druggist, and get trial bottle free.

Fire at Norton.

E. w. Miller, who operates large
saw mill and planning establishment
at Norton, met with the sad mis-
fortune of getting the whole OF same
burned up last Friday night. Be-
sides burning his saw and planning
mills about one-half million feet OF
lumber was destroyed. and Mr.. Mil
ler's loss is estimated at about
$4,000, with no insurance. The
cause OF the fire is unknown, but it
is supposed to have been caused by a
cigar or cigarette stub, thrown into
the shavens by some one going the
path between the saw mill and the
palmer. 1t was only with difficulty
that Mr.. Miller saved his dwelling
house, which stands near by.

How To Cure Hams.

E. NJ. Todd, of Virginia, whose
cured hams have ginen his product (
reputation that sells them wherever
offered, gives the following description
of his method of curing:
i. The hams are placed in tray
Of fine Liverpool salt, then the flesh
surface is spnnkled with finely ground
crude saltpetre, until the hams are as
white as though covered by a mOder-
ate frost-or say use three or four
pounds OF the powdered saltpetre to
the thousand pounds of green hams.
2. After applying the saltpetre,
Immediately salt with the Liverpool
fine salt, covering well the entire
surface. Now pack the hams in bulk,
but not in piles more than three feet
high. In ordinary weather, the hams
should remain thus for three days.
8. Then break bulk and resalt
with fine salt. The hams thus sailed
and resulted should now remain in
salt in bulk one day for each and
every pound each ham weighs; that
is. a ten-pound ham should remain
ten days, and in such proportion of
time for larger and smaller sizes.
4. Next you wash with tepid
water until the hams are thoroughly
cleaned, and, after partially drying,
rub the entire surface with finely
ground black pepper.
5. Now the hams should be hung
in the smoke-house. and this import
ant operation begun. The smoking
should be very gradually aad slowly
done, lasting thirty to forty days.
9. After the hams are cured and
they should be repsppered,
10 guard against yermin, and then
bagged. These hams are improved
With age. and the Todd hams are in
perfection when one year old.--Fr-
'hange.

A BIG PROJECT.
Iron Deposits to be Developed,
Johnson City Furnace to
Ctarf

| Quart
A johnson City Dispatch to the
Chattanooga Times says;
A deal is on foot which when con.
summated will mean a great deal for
this community. At Roam Mountain
station, twenty-eight miles from
Johnson City, on the East Tennessee
and Western North Carolina railway,
there is rich iron ore bed. The ore
can be gotten here at little expense
over the narrow gauge railroad. The
plan which will be put in operation
within sixty days is to have a spur
track Of narrow gauge built from
Roam Mountain to the mines, bring
ing the iron ore down to johnson
city. The big iron furnace, now at
that place, is owned by the Embree-
vile Iron Company, and this compa-
ny will operate this furnace. Guy
r. johnson, of the Emlreeville COM
pany, is at the head of the deal.
This will open up valuable tract of
mining country, besides getting some
of the finest magnetic ore in the world
on the market. That this deal is
about to be closed is beyond doubt.
j. F. Huddle. formerly superin-
tendent of the East Tennessee and
Western North Carolina railway, has
charge of the mine operations.
