lower classes of Cubans the condition is
such today that only leader, fearless
and determined, is needed to cause a

The protest of the Cuban Veterans

it may get beyond the control Of the

posed by General Brooke, who cabled
to Washington declaring that all troops
are needed.
HAVANA, Nov. 29.-Although there
has been great deal of exaggeration
with reference to risings in different
parts Of the island, there is no doubt
that despite the tranquility of the coun-
try some apprehension exists lest with
in the next few months some trouble
should occur in the event the United
States does not give definite assurances
regarding the future Of Cuba.
Many of the police, especially mem
bers Of the rural guard have for several
weeks been paying fraction Of their
salaries to a fund intended for use in
case Of an outbreak against the United
I States. Information to this effect has
been brought to headquarters by per-
sons who have usually proved reliable.

his misery we find that he was 4 pessi-

How to Get Rid of a Crowd.

The late Prince George generally
dined on his balcony, during which
time his Cossacks played delightful
airs from the Russian operas. Crowds
of people came to stare most rudely, so
one evening there was a very dis
agreeable smoke which swept over
them and drove them away. l had the
curiosity to find out the meaning. A
stove had been filled with bark and
leaves and placed in such a position
that the smoke was driven right into
the faces of the people, and l could
imagine the quiet laugh that went
around the imperial dinner table as
the people dispersed as sheep having
