Tampa. Fla. Dec. 9.-Cubans
here are much excited over several
speeches which were made in cigar
factories today by Cubans whose
names will not be revealed. The
speakers were bitter and incendiary
in their language, regarding the
American occupation of Cuba and
advocate the use of force and dyna-
mite to rid the island of all Amer
leans.
There are several thousand Gu

to excite the colony and to raise
money later on to carry out some

THE MEASURING PARTY.
10 7.3 Cents the Average Price of
Admission.

The measuring social given al Al
drich cottage last night by the Ladies'
Missionary society of the Presbyterian
church, was well attended, and was
cne OF the pleasantest social events Of
the season. Misses ellison and Fore
man received guests at the door and
Conducted them 10 the measuring
stick, presided over by H. N. Smith,
where each one was measured correctly
and generously, then passed on TO the
collecting table. Here the ''three
cents foot and one cent the extra
inch" was paid and receipted with a
tiny bow Of green, in honor of ST. Pat
rick. Although the weather was
threatening there were l64 yards OF
people present The tallest gentle
mau present measured feet 2 inches;
the smallest was Master Donald Cald-
well measuring only feet 81 inches.
The tallest lady measured 5 feet 9
inches, excepting one who measured
with her hat on and reached the as
tonishing height OF : feet IL inches.
The ideal height-from measuring
party standpoint-was 5 feet II inches
and was reached BY only two gentle
men, J. /. Morning and W. S. Crock
EFT, and which called for the highest
est admission, rs cents. The average
height was 5 feet 1-6 inches and the
average admission was 10 2-3 cents.
The greatest number OF persons the
same height was twelve who measured
5 feet 8 inches After the measuring
was over quite an interesting pro-
gram was given. A fan drill by
twelve little girls was very
pretty. A vocal solo by Miss Mabel
Gunter was sweetly sung and well re-
ceiyed. The recitation by Miss Mani
fee Of Sapulpa, was splendidly given.
The Presbyterian choir closed the ex.
ercises and refreshments were next in
order, consisting of cake, salad, waf-
ers. chocolate and coffee. After some
time spent ia conversation and games
each one went home feeling that
with song. recitation and pleasure,
All hand enjoyed the party Of measure"

THE LEAGUE NON EST.
Something Better Was Felt TO be
Needed.

The Business Meas League was dis
banded last night For long time it
has been evident that ii was not or
eanized on proper lines 10 reach the
highest degree Of efficiency and it was
thought that the best way 70 get
something better was TO lay aside
what we had. 1t has not been very
difficult 10 collect dues, and through
the leagues agency q considerable
sum OF money In addition has been
raised, but heaping measure Of sue
cess will not follow the simple pay
ment OF money. The attendance Of
the members is absolutely essential.
To secure this certain social features
must be incorporated into the plan Of
operation. The organization which
will serve the purpose desired must
first of all have a dOmicile-a suite Of
rooms-which must be very close 10
TIE center Of the city and must ex-
pend for furnishing and maintaining
them and making them fit for enter
tanning the ladies and for other pur-
poses connected Herewith consider
able sum OF money-perhaps Is much
as s25 per year for each member. A
number OF gentlemen have taken upon
themselves the work of investigating
the plans employed BY similar organ
izations in other moderate sized
towns aud If they can discover what
they believe will meet the require
ments of Vinita viii make the same
known in due time and give an op-
portunity for organization. In all
probability such an institution as is
needed should be incorporated as in
this manner the interests of iudiyidu-
ais could be protected 1t is generally
admitted that an organization is need
ed to look after Vinita's material in-
terests and that from this time hence
forth its sphere of usefulness will be
practically uncircumScribed.

Held for Further Inquiry.

Hack Inspector c. c. Estes today, in the
Police Court, charged William H. Stephens,
a hackman. with lettering on the street.
Mr. D. w. Baker, who defended Stephens,
sxed Judge Kimball to quash the charge,
for the reasons, as he stated, that the in
formation filed in the case fails to state
an offense against the laws and ordinances
of the District of Columbia, and that the
ordinance under which the Information was
drawn is null and void, the Commissioners
having had no authority under law to make
the same; also, that said ordinance is I'M
constitutional and void
Judge Kimball overruled the motion, and
Mr.. Baker gave notice of his intention to
appeal.
After hearing the evidence in the case,
which was to the effect that Stephens was
driving his hack up and down the street
near the Ebbitt House yesterday, the court
held the defendant in 500 bonds to await
further proceedings.
