Rider Haggard.
(Chicago Tribune.)


Some years ago there used to be much
in vogue a catchy verse which affected
to tell US what would happen when
.Rudyards ceased from Kipling and Hag-
CARDS ride no more" Up TO the time of
writing Rudyards have not by any means
ceased from Kipling, but rather the re-
verse but ii must be admitted that one
does not hear as much of Rider Haggard
now as formerly. There are hosts of
readers of his stirring novels. however,
who will be pleased to hear that Victoria
day-June 22-was Mr.. Haggard's forty
third birthday. The famous novelist has
had a somewhat remarkable career. which
commenced very early. for at twenty-one
he was master of the high court in the
Transvaal in the days previous to that
awful nightmare. Majuba hill But he
was so thoroughly disguised with later
events that he came back to England
Marrying a country heiress. Mr.. HagSard
has never experienced the delights of
writiSg by candlelighr in a breezy attic.
If he had had to depend on his own inter-
airy earnings his lot would certainly not
have been a happy one. While studying
for the bar he wrote his first book. "Cete-
Wayo and His White Neighbors, and 1t
is a solemn fact that he had TO pay t5O
down to get il published. With king
Solomon's Mines however. there came
fame and afterward fortune. and Mr.:
Haggard now rightly scouts the idea or
paving anything to get his work pub

A Convenient Fad.

The latest thing in ladies' belts is not
only ornamental, but it has also the dis
tinguishing mark of usefulness
II is nothing more nor less than plain
black leather belt fashioned after large
dog collar with name plate in the mid
die of the back. Unlike dog collars, there
are no license tags attached, but 1t Is ex-
pected these will come later
The name plate is very convenient
thing. especially for the friends of the
Young ladies wearing the belts. There is
no man who has not at some time had
difficulty in recalling the name of some
fair maiden of his acquaintance and has
consequently been often much embar-
raised. Now. all he has TO do is to offer
some excuse to get behind her back and
all his troubles are at an end.
The novelty is also appreciated by the
sporting element. A young man who
feels a desire to fiirt and to pick up an
informal acquaintance with some pretty
girl whom he sees on the street no longer
has to step UP and commence the con-
versation with something like this: .'Oh.
ah, Miss - -. er. er, an, delightful
evening, isn't it?' He can now take a
beautiful start with Good evening" Miss
Smith; delighted to see you again.

SUCCESSOR MAY BE GOMEZ.
Commander Of Cuban Army May Be
Domingo's Next President.

Chicago, July ga Tribune special
from Washington says: BY the as
sassination of President Heureau& of
San Domingo, Cuba may lose one of its
central figures, as il is well known
that General Maxine Gomez aSplres TO
the presidency of the black republic
Some time ago General Gomez issued
q manifesto to the Cuban army, in
which he babe his soldiers goodby, and
signified his intention to return TO san
Domingo, his native land As Gomez 5
love for adventure and fighting Tor
what he calls liberty are well known, ii
is believed he will start for San Do
mingo at once, organize an army and
endeavor to fight his way to the presi-
dency. Gomez is 4 good organizer, and
those who come in contact with him
in Cuba say he is one of the best SOL
diers in Cuba, and he has the tenaclty
20 stick to a cause until II triumphs.
The old general knows he will not be
chosen president Of Cuba, if that island
ever has a president, as il is believed
the constitution of Cuba viii follow
closely that of the United States, and
provide that only native Cubans can
be elected TO the highest office. This
bar will not confront General Gomez in
San Domingo, as he was born in san
Domingo, and his family still resides
there.
Although Gomez has been absent
from San Domingo a number of years,
he stiu claims it as his home, and this
claim will undoubtedly hold good. As
il is natural for troops to flock to
successful leader, it would not be sur
prising If General Gomez should or
ganize large army and within a short
time find himself in the presidential
chair.
While little is known of President FL
guero, few persons believe he can main
tain peace as there are pronounced
signs of a revolution brewing. a third
candidate is in the field in the person
of Juan Isidor JimineZ. 1t is said this
viii rot promote tranquility, and. judS-
ing from the past history of General
Gomez many believe he will next be
heard IF a. president of san Domingo.
1t Is thought a large number of Gu
bans would follow General Gomez to
San Domingo, and again take up arms
under his command While the depar-
ture Of General Gomez would be re-
GREETED, il is believed here it will not
have any material effect in Cuba, and
affairs will go on as smoothly as they
are at present.

That VIII Ensue in Domingo.
Nerw York, July 2S.-General AIber-
saide A. Moscoso, an exiled leader of
the Liberal party from Santo Domingo,
now living in New York, said last
night:
:'The death of President Heureux will.

~ favor the policy of peace. 1 shall
be glad to return to my country and
support such a policy if it is inaugural
ed by General Figuerro, the vice presi-
dent who succeeds to the head of the
government. But il something is not
quickly done to establish order and
peace, more revolutionary expeditions
will follow like that of General Jimi-
nez and General Morales, who led a
hand from Cuba against Heureux.
There are now in this country Cen
eral Toribeo Garcia and Edward Grul-

that the United States ought to take

had to fee to save his, life.
