Mention is often made of Jacks growls-some growl at their officers, others at their food, others at their uni forms-it is ever with them--others at
 their pay while others yet complain
 that promotion ia slow, and that for
 the best a blank dead wall bars the way to the commissioned ranks--open to their brothers in arms ashore. The
 navy is not perfect--there are faulty wheels even in it's organization; but most of the growls--not all--are of non-
 essentials. When the time comes for
 blow to be struck Jacks the boy for
 work. He turns with will to task
 be 1t ashore or afioat, and shows what at bottom he thinks of his officers by his actions. He knows his real friends
 Has one incident in the terrible Majuba
 Hill disaster passed out of his mind? Some time before the trouble arose in South Africa an outbreak of smallpox occurred in the warship in which Com mander Romilly was serving, and the black "Kroo' boys were in particular attacked. Commander Romilly might have left the stricken men--black and white-to be looked after by the doctors and sick berth staff; but he chose the nobler part. and attended to them him self, until he, too, caught the infection, the marks of which his handsome face retained to the time of his death.
 Such incidents as these live and sweet en life in the navy, and they are not singular. This gallant officer was the first to fall at Majuba Hill, and it will readily be understood what effect his death had on his little band of sixty men and on General Colley his friend, who placed in him absolute confidence. Fleet men do not easily forget the acts of devotion and kindness of those placed over them; they bind the personnel to- gether, so that in the hour of trial it is animated by common spirit. Jack has good heart, and it beats true. The Crimea, the Egyptian campaigns, the disasters of the Transvaal of 1881, all bear testimony to the splendid stuff that is beneath the rough exterior and the occasional growl. To-day Jack is more of a scientist than in past years, but he is the same good sailor or soldier as of yore, as circumstances and the needs of his country demand-London Telegraph.

MIR. MOORE'S COLD RIDE
WITH LITTLE MORE THAN NIGHT
 CLOTH ES
On and Clinging to Fast-Flyins
 Train.

Lew Moore, the caterer, who has just returned from Washington, D. C., was telling at the court house yesterday of
 a thrilling ride he had on the steps of a
 hsleeper, clad only in his nightshirt, trousers and shoes
 Just about daybreak the train made
 brief stop about forty miles this side of Hinton, w. Va. Moore had been una ble to sleep for several hours, and he arose, slipped on his trousers and shoes and stepped out on the platform to look around. Just then the train started slowly Lew let the day coaches go by
 intending to get on one of the sleepers. The vestibule doors on all of them were closed, leaving only few inches of the lower step protruding. He grabbed the handle of the vestibule door of the last car with his right hand and stepped on the narrow strip of the step that pro- truded beneath it. In a few moments the train was going at the rate of forty miles an hour, and Moores position be- came extremely dangerous. He yelled for help, but the noise of the train and the heavy plate-glass windows in the vestibule door drowned his cries.
 Moore, with no hat, coat or shirt on, but attired only in his nightshirt and trousers, began to feel cold. At length his hand became tired and he began to get alarmed. Finally he got hold of the door-handle with his left hand, and then struck the plate glass with all his might with his right fist A heavy Masonic ring he wore broke the window with crash. Moore crawled in through the opening and thanked God for his deliv- erance. His hand was badly cut by the broken glass, but this was mere tri- fle compared to what he had just un- dergone It seemed to him that he had been riding on the outside of the ear for several hours but Investigation devel- oped that he had been there exactly eighteen minutes. The crash of the breaking glass aroused everybody on the car. and many of the passengers screamed in alarm, thinking the train was wrecked The conductor assisted Moore to the washroom, where the blood was washed from his hand, which was then bandaged.
 The conductor told Moore he would have to pay three dollars for the glass he broke Lew did so, and, luckily, ob- tained a receipt, for later 1t developed that he had knocked in the entire glass front of the door, which cost twenty five dollars.-Cincinnati Enquirer

SANTIAGO PROVINCE.

l What a Soldier Has to Say About it. | Our men are gradually clearing the re-
 mote mountain districts of outlaws, who when found, are made to feel the sever i ity of Uncle Sams authority. l was out
 with the guard one day lately. It was
 about nightfall, when I got my last
 wound. Of course, I received a few
 scratches at El Clancy, but they have healed up. This last one came from a Mauser bullet fired at long range by a bandit It entered my side and followed
 the rib around for good distance. Our
 men are oftne fired at from the chapar-
 ral in this way.
 We. brought up some logs of the finest
 mahogany on the transport this trip.
 They were three or four feet in dia-
 meter. There are magnificent forests
 of this and other valuable woods within
 fifteen miles of Santiago. Owing to the
 absence of anything like roads, it s lm-
 possible to get out this timber at pres- ent. The native way is to bring up
 huge two-wheeled cart and place one end of the big stick on the axle. Six oxen then drag the load slowly and painfully alone. These forestsl are of im- mense extent and of great value. The proposed railroad will facilitate lumber ing operations, and I look for the time when we shall have much mahogany made from Cuban timber
 Game of many kinds abounds, and in the last three months shot as many as twenty deer. These are like our Vir- ginia variety, only little smaller. The soldiers killed good many, and veni- son was a regular article in our camp bill of fare I used an ordinary cavalry carbine on account of its light weight and shot the regulation metal jacketed ,30-calibre ammunition. One day I shot three deer.
 The plantations generally are being put into a good state of cultivation. In fact many are producing this season the first good crops in fifteen or twenty years. In the old days a planter would often have his crops confiscated by the Spaniards on the flimsy plea that among his one hundred negro workmen there was suspected follower of Maceo. The Spaniards would come and kill about the whole outfit to make sure that the obnoxious man should not escape.
 There is at present a great demand l for breeding cattle, and it would pay dealers in the United States to send q l large quantity of stock of this kind to | the island. A number of Americans are | coining money in Santiago. They send | over to some of the neighboring islands and buy up the cattle for about $10 | each. These they sell in Santiago for about $75 each for beef The harbor tax it's only $1 head. There is a great ] demand for beef on the hoof there, and | American cattle are preferred to the | thin scraggy specimens from Porto Rico. The native guinea grass furnishes | splendid floor for cows and oxen the year around.
 A good deal of American capital is invested in Santiago, and most of the Cuban and Spanish merchants are all ready American citizens, having taken out their papers during the stirring times of the rebellion and the Spanish war. The streets were much torn up |

Some people do, but it don't pay, es-
pecially in buying Christmas presents.
Christmas week is a poor time to pur-
chase presents because all the stores
are jam full of people, and clerks can
not give you the attention you would
get if you selected what you want ear
lier and, besides. you can select from
larger stocks and fresher goods than
at Christmas time after everything
has been picked over.
We have about go dolls just arrived,
besides other Christmas things, such as
fancy china, silverware, etc. Christ
mas goods are arriving every week
Come in and look around; it won't put
your eyes out just to see things. We
won't chase you out of the store with a
pitchfork or an ak if you don't happen
to buy. We don't getter madden than a
bull in fly time if you ask the price
without buying. We kind O. like to
have people come in and cape around
because they always become our Gus
toners after they have investigated our
store and its prices. Do you know
where our place is? We are four doors
east of the postofice. Lots of goods
out front, such as hardware, baskets.
