MEMENTO OF MACEO.
Hoof of the Heroic Cuban LEADER
Horse, Which Perished
with Him.

Down on Front street there is an old
curiosity shop in which is unique me I
mento of the Cuban hero, Antonio Nal
Geo. 1t is the right front hoof of thd
horse that carried him when he wasi
killed in Pinar del Rio. The horse re-
ceived several of the bullets intended
for its master, and died at the same
time.
The owner of the relic, Westminster
Abbey, the proprietor of the shop, Sc
cured the hoof last October from John.
Z. Smith, of Kankakee, Ill. Smith wasI
a rough rider, and when he returned
from Cuba brought with him all the|
bones of Maceo's last horse. This hooI
was the only portion of the skeletonI
he would part with, and lest any doubt'
of its genuineness would ever exist, he'
had an affidavit drawn up before nde|
tary declaring the facts in the case. 81
The story runs that Maceo's horse
was small but 1.-THE and intelligent|
bay, which on many an occasion had
saved the great leaders life. Jose, Ana
tonio's brother, had often expressed hisI
desire to own the horse, but Antoniol
steadfastly refused to part with him
In all of the stirring raids up and,
down the island the animal carried the\
patriot. Many months before its un-|
timely end it was famous.
Both the horse and the master rel
ceived many a severe scratch in the last
campaign, but their lives seemed
charmed At last, along in the memora-
BILE fall of 1897, Antonio Maceo, who
was then ravaging the province of
Pinar del Rio, met his fate, mounted on
the faithful animal, in battle near Ha-
vana.
The full details of what followed will
probably never be known. At any rate
few hours after Maceo had left his
command and ridden out to the battle
field on his faithful steed, he and his
horse were dead.
The horses body was found by in
surgents the night after the battle.
and over it was built a rough logl
cache. A former American resident Of
Havana, shortly after the conclusion
of peace, secured the bones of the horse.
Intending to have them articulated for
the Smithsonian institution. It.as-ual
from him that Smith, who was an old.
friend, secured the strange memento3|
After Smith came to New York he waS|
exploring the town one day, when he
stumbled upon Westminster Abbey'S|
establishment, and became so interestE
ed in Mr.. Abbeys bizarre collection
thar he presented to the latter the hoof.
Mr.. Abbey made all kinds of tempting
offers for the remainder of the skelez0
ton, but Smith wouldn't part with it.
