The Advantages and Pleasures OF
1t as Elucidnted by Mr.
GObbIeby.

I should recommend as an investment, y
said Mr.. Gobbleby, the practice Of civility.
AS matter Of fact, l don't suppose that a
very great number Of men have suddenly be.
come wealthy through this means; that is,
don't suppose that large number of very
rich people have left fortunes to men who
had been at one time or another polite to
them, but I don't doubt, either, that there
have been just such cases, and don't for a
moment doubt that substantial advantages
have often accrued to men through their
consistent civiity.
But aside from any question of material
profit Though there is still always the
chance of that involved in it, should say
that the exercise of civility would pay for
another reason. There are lots of people
who like civil treatment, who are, in fact,
really pleased by it, and though we might
not get anything in dollars and cents out Of
civility extended in this way toward people
in general, yet I should say it would pay, for
we should get from it, at least, the pleasure
that is always to be derived from afford;ng
pleasure to others.

of view we look at it, civility is good in.

of it, anyway, and it doesn't cost us cent. :"

hour set for the movement was s a. m.

General Castillo had indicated q trail
from Siboney, leading over hill south
of the main road between Siboney and
| Santiago, and forming junction with
it at Las Guasimas. The ridge crossed
by the trail is very high. General
Young decided to send the rough riders
over the trail and with the regulars and
Hotchkiss battery move along the main
road. The plan was to make a stimuli

was explained to General Wheeler. Las
Guasimas was a pass where the Span

went to Castillo's camp to say that the

The Cuban sentinels would not allow
Colonel Rivers to awaken Castillo. so
he came back without the Cubans reach

out, sending his aids, Rivers and Smed-
burg, with Colonel Wood, commander

column and give any assistance needed

Captain Mills, adjutant general Of the

made. There were small parties Of Gu

Young to come up, indicating how he

general could see the Spanish position
at Las Guasimas. There were Spaniards
massed north of the road upon which
the regulars were advancing, protected
by some stone parapets. After survey
