Method Employed by the Cuban
Junta to EnSnare the Span
iSh Minister.

Chicago, H., Dee. 1O.-The Journal to-
Cay prints an interview with Senior Car
les Vincente de Quesada Socarras, cou-
sin of Secretary Quesada of the Cuban
junta and son OF Gen. Quesda Aguiar,
who commanded part of the Cuban forces
during the ten years war for independ-
ence.
According to the interview Senior Que
sada claims that the famous De LONE
letter written by the Spanish minister
ridiculing President Mckinley was stolen
IN the United States and not in Havana.
Quesada, who fought under all the
prominent Cuban leaders and who was
present at the death of MaceO, says that
De Lome's gallantry led to his downfall,
that q woman in the employ of the Junta
learned many of the Spanish minister S
secrets
''There were many parties to the con-
epiracy which resulted in the theft OF the
De LONE letter." he said.
1.-THE junta had worked trusted agents
into the employ of the Spanish legation.
These clerks kept us posted on all mat
tiers which they could, but that was not
enough. So it was arranged that a WOm-
an was to start up filtration with Senior
De LONE and endeayor to gain his conf
dence. The woman selected to ensnare
De LONE is now in New York. De LONE
confided many things to her which he
should not
''When Canalejas came to this country
he was watched every minute. Through
the influence of friends the junta man
aged TO get a Cuban, as waiter, into
the hotel where he was stopping. The
waiter was supposed to be Venezuelan.
AS he spoke Spanish, he was naturally
assigned to wait on De LONE.
when the Spanish minister wrote that
letter the junta was promptly informed
that a letter. contents unknown. had been
written to Canalejas. The letter reached
its destination at the hotel. but it never
got to Canalejas. The Venezuelan waiter
took it out Of the package of letters and
turned it over to the junta.
The junta sold that letter to New
York paper. 1t was turned over on the
condition, however, that it should be sup
posed to have been stolen in Havana, so
as to avoid any trouble with the postal
authorities. Secretary of State Day saw
it before it was published
About the time Of the De LONE Incl
dent Carlos de QueSada was in Washing
ington in the interest of the junta, pass
ing as a Venezuelan.

Love is not love that alter when it alteration
finds
That is one of the sublimest lines in all
literature 1t is the final definition of love
by the worlds greatest reader Of the human
mind Shakespeare. Nearly all women
who truly love, love in this sublime way.
Men seldom do
Woman's most glorious endowment is
the power to awaken and hold the pure
and honest love OF a worthy man When
she loses it and still loves on, no one in
the wide world can know the heart agony
she endures The woman who suffers
from weakness and arrangement of her
special womanly organism soon loses the
power to sway the heart of a man. Her
general health suffers and she loses her
good looks, her attraCt1veness, her arula-
bility and her power and prestige as a
woman. Dr.. r. V. Pierce, of Buffalo. N Y,

is TO aggravate the misery brought on
by the vast hordes of the unemployed,
is the tendency of the agrarian pOpula-
ton to migrate to the centers OF popu-
lation. More and more labOrers from
the farms come to the cities every
year. The cities are already over
crowded, and these agricultural work
men bring starvation and suffering OF
every description in their train.
Work should be made more cOngen-
ial to the agricultural labOrers. His
hours of labor should be reduced. He
should be treated like a man. and he
should be decently paid. 1t is the i'm
perative duty of our legislators To I'M
fluence legislation in the direction Of
improving the condition Of the agrarian
population They would only be pro-
tecting the interests Of their constit-
uents.
Another good way to thin out the
unemployed in the large cities would be
for the Government to coloniZe the
great stretches of fertile lands in the
| West. Colonization is a great remedy
for the overcrOwding of the labor mar
ket. There is room for all in the great
plains Of the West. Nobody denies
this 1t is only necessary for few
| courageous men to take the initiative
and start the movement.
| ''All those who have studied labor
problems at all admit the correctness
! of my arguments. All that is need
I ed is for these arguments TO be brought
| to the attention of the public"
