Ward is in the center Of a mining

good school and church facilities and
is peopled by the best class OF citi-

STARVATION AND DEATH
In THE ISLAND OF CUBA.
Captured Fishermen Say Food Is Scarce
and the Reconcentrados Are
Rapidly Dying OF.

KEY WEST, May 16.-The conditions
in Havana, resulting from the blockade,
are being gradually brought out by in
formation obtained from fishing smacks
and other small vessels captured off the
coast by the blockading vessels.
Affairs at Havana now appear to be
worse than at any time since the Wey-
Ter regime The fishermen, who at first
braved the blockade for the high price
fish brought in Havana, now run the
risk not for money, but for the food
which they obtain from the sea.
The Machias caught two fishing boats
off Havana just before her return here.
The American offered the fishermen
money for part of their catches, the fish
was needed on board. But the fisher
men demurred at taking money, they
preferred to have bread and adding
that they were desperately hungry.
When questioned as to the prevalence
of yellow fever at Havana, the fisher
man said there was little sickness at
the Cuban capital, but they added there
was much starvation. The reconcen-
trados, they said, are nearly all dead Or
have been expelled from the city to die
in the suburbs. This agrees with other
reports from Havana and Matanzas, to
the effect that the Spanish authorities,
on the departure of the American con-
sui, seized all the relief supplies and
applied them to the uses of the army
The Spaniards then drove the reconcen-
trados into the desolated sections of the
country, between the coast towns and
the insurgent lines, the regions de-
scribed by Senator Proctor and others
as being too barren and desolate to sup
port grasshoppers. The insurgents
themselves have been chary of receiv-
ing reconcentrados and hundreds of the
latter who had no personal friends in
the insurgent camps had been left to
starve between the lines, which they
did
About Havana the situation is even
worse Hundreds of Feconcentrados
from Los Fosas, the big reconcentrado
barracks in Havana. were too weak to
walk out of town and fell in the streets
or died in the suburbs, where focks of
vultures, "Weyler's Chickens as they
are now termed in Havana, have Toasted
ON the remains
In Matanzas this feature of the situa-
ton is equally distressing
The fishermen say that if the blockade
continues much longer bread riots must
follow in all the large towns, as food is
reserved exclusively for the army, thus
forcing many people to enlist who would
not otherwise do SO.
Finally the fishermen say that certain
of the most desperate OF the Spaniards
threaten to burn Havana or blow the
city up in the event of the authorities
deciding to capitulate to the American
forces.

but failed to hit. A shell from one of

trial was heard before Squire Elem

teresting owing to the tender age of
two boys charged with robbing the
meat shop of b. L. Martin q Co.
Wednesday night Of two hams. The
two boys implicated are Alonzo
Daddysman aged nine and Will
Anderson aged ten years. The theft
was discovered yesterday morning
early by Mr.. Frank Fisher, mem
Der of the firm, and he at once in
formed Officer John Jenkins. The
officer suspicioned the boys and lat
er noticed "Skeat' Parker attempt
ing to hide, as the officer says, some
thing under his coat. He followed
the man and found he had ham
and both man and meat were ar
rested and the man lodged in jail
Mr.. Parker said that the Daddys-
man boy had brought the ham and
sold it to him for SO cents and that
he supposed he was selling it for his
parents. The boy was arrested and
told his story. 1t was to the effect
that he and the Anderson boy had
gone to the meat shop between ten
and eleven o'clock at night and that
the Anderson boy had first entered
the shop and then asked him to come
in. He presented a very pitiable
sight when the hard hearted officer
put him in a cell and he cried out
time and again to his father not to
leave him. The officer says that
this is the end he thinks Of a series

two bushels of potatoes at Parker's
house which he thinks were stolen

The Boston Traveller pays the
women of that bean-eating prov
inces of old maids the following
compliment:
A prominent Boston physician
is responsible for the startling
statement that every woman has
either crooked arms or crooked
legs. Inquiry among the differ
emit professors of gymnastics has
brought forth much the same
opinion. Women are knock kneed,
bow legged, too lean, too fat, or
only partially developed, and a
straight arm is very rare.
That accounts for it. South
and West, women are better form
ed and consequently usually marry.
