INDECENT RatfOns Issued.

Santiago de Cuba. March S.-Col.
Hood cables from Holguin that intense
excitement prevails there, owing to the
cessation of public works. and that "a
mass-meeting has been held. at which
the action of the United States mill
tary authorities at Havana was on
demned as false economy. and as the
result of centraIiZation."
Owing TO the pressing necessities of
the case, Col. Hood says he has issued
INDECENT rations to 1900 heads of fam
lies suddenly thrown out of employ
ment. He fears there will be a large
increase in the criminal classes OF his

Legislation Against Hooters.

A house bill has passed both
branches of the legislature, prohibit
ing nonresidents of the state from
driving hogs into Missouri for the pur-
pose of feeding them on mast. Many
persons have considered this measure
as Il sort of Legislative joke. but not
so of those who reside in the southern
parts of the state. OF recent years it
has become the custom of residents of
Arkansas to drive thousands of hogs
from that state into Missouri and fat
ten their porkers on the abundant
mast. AT first there was enough mast
for all, but now is seems the Arkan-
sas men have shown Il disposition to
push a good thing too far. and the aid
of the legislature has been invoked to
make them keep their porkers at
home. Many thousands of hoSs are
said to be fattened on the mast in
southern Missouri. which consists
largely OF pecans, acorns and hickory
nuts.
