ever did" r
Miss Gill writes:
'In Sancti Spiritus we found a
condition of suffering which is much
more serious than anything which we
have seen before. There are over four
hundred children who need to be
taken care of right away, and the
town has only been able to provide
for twenty-five little girls, who were
selected because they were physically
worse off than anybody else in town.
Although they have now been cared for
nearly six weeks, they are still mere
little skeletons, and almost make one
doubt whether it was any kindness to
help them to live few years longer"
Miss Gill's last report gives most
encouraging news:

them seeds and simple little tools and

she may come to influence their diet

1t has been urged by many that the
directors of the Cuban Orphan Fund
are wasting an unnecessary amount of
money on their plant. e., the pur-
chase of buildings for homes, orphan
asylums and schools. This is not the
case, as the buildings which are set
tied and used for this purpose are prac-
tically given for the purpose.

all taken on the spot, and show the
practical good which is being dons by
the representatives of the fund.

Angling In Lnpland.

Enthusiasts in the gentle art Of
angling will be interested in the rec
ords of recent expedition to Lapland.
1t is an uncomfortable and expensive
voyage, and the entire absence of any
proper food in the country renders it
necessary to take everything which
the ordinary civilized being may re-
quire. But in these days of condensed
nourishment of all kinds that is not
q very formidable matter. On arriv-
ing at their destination the party of
two rods and their followers found
the river frozen so that they had to sit
down patiently on the banks and wait
for thaw. When that came there
was TOO much water, and fishing was
an impossibility, But when the river
got into condition they had grand
sport. They fished for eleven days,
and during that time the two rods got
total of 2S2 salmon and 155 grilse,
in all weighing nearly 5000 pounds.
The best days catch for one rod was
thirty-three salmon and twenty-five
grilse, weighing 553 pounds in ALL

stones, he found not luscious turtle
eggs, but bright bars OF gold and

authorities of Campeche, who sent a
party to gather up the treasure. 1t is
said the value of the bars is fabulous.

Rosendo happy and idle for the rest

, WHAT Noble MEN And
, W0MEM ARE DOING FOR
, THE CUBAN REPUBLIC.

The Cuban Orphan Fund, which is
now fully started and doing good
work among the orphaned children of
the ''reconcentrados" of Cuba, is
really the outcome of the American
Commission to Cuba last fall, prior to
the raising of the American flag over
the island.
The organization is entirely nom
sectarian; the children are cared for
physically and mentally, entirely ir-
respective of any religious sect. Their
condition is pitiable, and the neces-
sity for bettering it is imperative.
The men at the head of the fund are
men who have personally come in
contact with the misery, poverty and
utter destitution of the children of
Cuba.
These men are intelligent, farsee-
ing, and fully appreciative of the
benefit which must eventually accrue
to the United States If these orphans
are properly educated and trained.

klMBERLEY'S DIAMOND MINES.
Our Consul-General at Cape Town Gives
an Account OF His Visit There.

Consul General j. G. Stowe, oil
Cape Town, has sent to the Slate De.
partment an exhaustive account of o
trip which he recently made through
South Africa to examine into the in.
dustrial development of the country.
In the course of his report Mr.. Stowe
gives an interesting report of his visit
to the Kimberley diamond mines.
1.-The City of Kimberley" he says,
sis CAT miles from Cape Town-a ride
of two days and one night. 1t has a
population of 35,0 and the greatest
diamond mines in the world. The
United States is represented here by a
consular agent-Mr. Gardner F. Will
iams, who is the general manager of
the mines. l was pleased to learn that
many of the most responsible positions
are held by Americans.
1.-The company occupies 200, 900
acres of land, employs Is, 900 natives
and %, 900 whites, consumes each
month in the compounds $4,000
pounds ofmutton and 200, 900 pounds of
beef, turns out 900, 900 carats of dia-
monds month, uses 5000 tons of coal a
day, has 1000 horses and mules, twelve
stations of the best breeds (some
from America) and 200 brood mares.

sent to Chicago to have the cogs cut.
The company is operating an ice plant
sent from Chicago, and has three
more ordered, each with a capacity of
five tons per day and 10000 feet of
cold storage; and a complete dynamite
plant. with an American to manage it,
is on its way here from America.
Zone hundred and fifty miles of mar.
row gauge railroad in and around the
mines are laid with American rails
and every tie or sleeper is made of
California redwood, which in this
country is par excellence the best
wood for such purpose. 1t is also
used in many other ways. Three ships
from California have arrived with
cargoes of redwood and Oregon pine.
The company sells its ice for half
cent per pound to all, while in Cape
Town the charge is four cents per
pound.
"No corporation in the world does
more for its employees. 1t has built
the village of Kenilworth, covering
500 acres and occupied by 500 en-
ployes at nominal rents. Water and
light are supplied free, and there is
clubhouse, library, reading rooms,
athletic grounds, park and vegetable
gardecs, with vines and fruit of all
kinds in profusion."

Marble Hearts Organize.

A Wisconsin town has entered the
lists as the promoter of very singu-
lar crusade. 1t is the organization of
the Marble-Heart Anti Matrimonial
Association, into which all the bache.
lors of the place have been induced to
cast their fortunes. An initiation fee
OF $25 and annual dues of $40 are ex.
acted; the young man joining is
pledged not to marry, but should he
break the vow, he loses all claim to
the funds of the society. The last
Marble-heart to remain unmarried
gets the whole fund, and then is at
liberty to marry if he wishes. The
young women have organized coun-
ter society, whose vow is not to
marry anyone of the male Marble
hearters. There is, however, no
stonewall or strong block in the way
OF the breaking of the pledge in either
organization.

Modern Courtship Unromantic.

There is something quite idyllic
about the fresh air courtships that are
going on during these latter days.
Truly, one would think that the love
fostered by wind and sunshine might
well be purer and more enduring than
fancy engendered in ballroom, and
aided by dinners, the opera, etc. A
three mile match over the golf links
with a congenial companion, or "A
tramp through bog and heather on a
shooting expedition before breakfast,
are the roads for matrimouy of the
summer girl of 1899. One cannot
help fancying that the1 human race
will be stronger and better for these
methods of wooing. There is also a
good comradeship and congeniality
implied by such companionship which
seems particularly desirable.
These latter day conrtships may be
matter OF fact, but they are certainly
breezy and altogether delightfully."-,
and the moonlight girl and the piazza
girl of yore possess no more romantic
or tender memories of the lovemaking
of their youth than our young amazons
of to-day will have in the years to
come.-New York Tribune.

PenIlY Wellinra.

The Scotland penny weddings were
SO called. although the guests con-
tributed shillings, and occasionally
half crowns, toward the wedding
feast. The penny wedding of Ger
many is on a different basis. The
bride receives her guests with basin
before her, in which everybody de-
posits jewel, a silver spoon or piece
of money. In some parts of Germany
the expense of a marriage is met by
each guest paying for what he eats
and drinks, and, moreover, at very
high rate, so that the young couple
thereby obtain sum sufficient to
start them nicely in life. As many as
800 guests often assemble. In Poland
a girl is not eligible for marriage un.
til she has not only made her own
trousseau, but the garm ,nts for the
friends that will accompany the bride
groom to the altar.
