Desde Washington
MAYO l8 de 1899

Voy q habIar hoy de un cubano,
notable que reside en- Washington
y cuyo nombre, popular ya en- la
America latina, no es desconocldo
para los puertorriqueflos.
Cuando Jose Marti, Ell infatiga-
BILE apostol de la Independence de
Cuba, comprendi6 que para aquella
labor titanlca necesltaba d su lado
un hombre de corazon inteligen-
cia. capaz de identificarse con el
de modo tan absolute, que 81 la
muerte lie sorprendia en- mitad del
camino, pudiese contlnuar su obra,
fl0se EN- GQDzalo de Quesada, que
era casi un nino, lie tendi0 los bra
Zos, v dedicose formar aquel CO.
raz0n y aquella inteligencia q ina
gen Y semejanza suya. Marti no Sc
equiyoc6; no podia equivOcarse aquel
hombre de mirada de agulla, cuyoI
.paso por ell mundo no tenia mas
que IN objeto; una mission; cuyoI
pensamiento, grande como un sol,
no iiuminaba, en- las profundldades
de su cerebro, mas que una idea,
una sola la Independence de Gu
ba. Gonzalo de Quesada fue ell hom-
bre que Marti necesltaba; y hoy
Ouesada es la sombra de Marti
que vaga por los alrededores del
Capitolio pidiendo aun Justlcla y
libertad para su pueblo.
Marti 'fu6 EN- cl mundo un soma
dor, un romantico sublime Con
saIo de Quesada es otro romantico,
mas mundane y menos abstracto
que su maestro, pero con un cora
zon todo bondad y patrlotlsmo.
Por su aspecto fislco parece uno
de aquellos poetas de la epoca de
Teoflo Gauthier y Alfredo Musset.
Trigueno, con grandes ojos negros,
Lipo esencialmente cubano; con gran
melena de cabellos obscure que casl
e rozan los hombros, y con unos
,igotes poblados y sedosos que ter
nlnan EN- grandes guias; vestldo
;icmpre de levita y chistera, que
leva al descuido, con marcado des-
yarbo, semeja q nno de aquellos J6-
yenes de la bohemia literaria del
}arrio Latino, transplantado q estas
llamedas de Washintong, para en- r
omar endechas de amor d las ven t
anas de estas ladies americanas, a
Jue parecen frias como el hlelo e
como los monolltos, Il
zero que llevan en- ell alma una gran
Iosis de romanticismo. H.,

Growing a Grandmother.

He was wee little man, only three years
old but very brave and uncomplainiDg; The
family had gone to new country In the far
West, the mamma, this little man, and the sister,
q little older. 1t was very new country, very
different from the city in the East where they
had left many friends, relatives, and nearest OF
all dear old grandmother. The mamma was
no busy in her new home that she had little
time for the babies, except to see that they
were clean and well fed.
The little three-year-old had been very busy
and very quite making big hole in the ground
with such earnestness of purpose that she went
to see what was being done.
The hole was completed when she reached
the spot, and in it had been placed something
that she took out and examined with wonder
ing curiosity. 1t was the strangest thing to 60
into hole in the ground - an old ,daguerreo.-
type, a picture of the dear grandmother at
home.

are you d DING with this?"

home sickness in his voice, II foug ht, maybe,

War as n RELIGION,

Recent discussions in Germany on mill
tarism have called attention to the constant Use
which the world is making of the name of God
and religion in defending milltarism. The
theory that God delights in war, and that He
fights Oh the side of the heaviest battalions:,
has no doubt won more souls to the eternal
death to which Satan desires to consign them
than any other error which he has been able to
instlll in the mind of man.

1t is useless to look backward and long 1or
the former state of things that will never come
again but the course of true wisdom is 10 look (
forward and if possible try to grasp the aims OF
God in these wonderful changes and seek 10 pe
what he would have us to be in their mlus'
and in the peril of their administration.
Almost all lying is rooted in moral coward

Speedy Fair and Honorable Adjustment Of aIllosses
ANLNAAPH why you should insure your
MiHAtIWN property with the Abbeville-
Greenwood Mutual Insurance
Association.

Association.
I. 1t is an Association of the people,
for the people and by the people, and we
have thoroughly demonstrated that mu'
tual insurance is practicable for and by
homefolks.
2. This Association insures against
fire and lightning, cyclones, tornadoes
and wind storms, while capital compan-
les insure against fire.
3. This Association has half mil
lion, dollars of property insured, and
since its organization has paid thirteen
thousand dollars of losses, at an average
annual assessment of one-half of one
per cent, one-fifth of the cost of other
companies, and not in a single instance
has it resorted to the aid of the Courts
to collect an assessment or to adjust a
loss.
q. BY this plan you pay for the pro-
lection you have enjoyed in the past, and
if there is no loss, there is no expense;
while in other companies you pay in ad-
vance for protection you expect to get,
though may not get except paid for dear
ly by legal proceedings.
s. This plan is a contract between
neiehbors: while in other companies
you enter into a contract written by
the company, for the company, and
against you. You can read and un-
derstand the policy of this company
Few understand an average insurance
policy.
6. Speedy, fair and honorable adjust,
ment of all losses of property are made
at assessed valuation when insured, with
no three-fourths clause attached. The
man who values your property is your
neighbor, who also adjusts your loss
while in other companies, when you sus'
tain loss, a stranger comes and looks
into the ashes and says what is to be
paid you.
7. You can with small expense insure
against fire, wind and storm, while fire
policy is about all you can afford IN the
old companies. You can enjoy the salts
faction of knowing that if your dwelling
is burned, it is insured in an Association
composed of friends and neighbors, who
will pay every dollar at which it was
valued, and not be subject to thousand
and one restrictions, imposed by Other
companies, more for their advantage
than for the protection of the insured.
The money paid out is kept at home,
and every dollar goes to the looser ot
property, which means the upbuilding ot
your own county.
8. Don't wait to be burned out and
become a burden to your friends by hav-
ing them BEG for you, when absolute pro-
lection is yours by casting in your mite.
Demonstration is fact, and co-opera,
ton is your duty. Therefore, at once in
sure in the Abbeville- Greenwood Mutual
Insurance Association.
