FROM THE RESCUED fStE
Third of a Series of Letters from
Our Cuban Correspondent.
CIENFUEGos, CUBA,
CAMP HOSPITAL 9Th q. V. L., :
April Is, 1899,

ONCE having written you my last
[c)) article | had the good fortune
to get five days leave Of alb
sence, with two other nurses, and
made a short tour across the island tC
Havana. Having friends at Matan-
zas, a seaport town about two hours
ride from Havana, we spent twenty.
four hours there pleasantly. The Sis
tiers are there who were with US at
Americus, Ga. They are in charge OF
the military hospital, and everything
was spotlessly clean and well kept.
There have been great number OF
regiments stationed there, but they
are fast leaving for the States.
The scenery in and around Matan-
zas is very picturesque and beautiful.
The high mountain ranges sloping
down to the sea, and the tropical
shrubs and royal palms, together
made lovely picture. We visited
and explored a wonderful cave there,
which is said to be second to the Nam
moth Cave in Kentucky. There aIe
many miles Of it uneXplored as yet.
We had a Chinaman guide who show
ed us the many wonderful stalactltes
in many different departments. In
some of them the ceilings seemed to
be studded with diamonds and crys-
tails. The city seems more tlourishing
than Cienfuegos.
About the first view that met our
eyes after arriving at the Havana
docks and crossing the ferry, was the
wreck of the Maine. She is certainly
sad wreck, and it seems hardly cred
ible that such a mass of wood and
iron was once such noble vessel. A
portion of the masthead is prOtruding
upward a few feet and it is encircled
with wreathS in commemoration of
the victims so mercilessly destroyed.
After crossing the ferry we hired a
cab to take us to an American restau-
rant which had been recommended to
us, and which we found was conduct
ed by a very nice American lady, She
helped us to secure a room with "a
Spanish widow lady, who speaks En-
glish quite well, almost directly over
the restaurant, and this being located
right in the center of the city in the
incest part, we considered ourselves
quite fortunate.
The next morning we started out
at ociock to visit Havana. We first
went to cathedral for a short time,
then hired carriage for the three of
us to go out to the cemetery, about
seven miles from the city. 1t enabled
US to see great portion of the city
and country The cemetery is GER

II am not talking Of your brother, Haller an
swered calmly II never met you. sir.
you're a-liar YOU hissed Holland, and
nressed a revolver which he had had concealed

sion which followed. The injured man was

DAMAGE TO WINTER WHEAT.
SAID TO RE SERIOUS N NEBRASKA AND ADJo1N-
ING STATES.

Lincoln. Neh. April (Specian.-The warm
weather ~ the last week has enabled the State
Board Of Agriculture to get fair idea OF the
damage n the winter wheat Of the State. For
some time there have been many Wild rumors as
to the extent OF the damage resulting from the
severe weather Of last winter. Reports 20 the
State Board from the various counties south Of
Platte indicate that the loss is the heaviest in the
States history being more than one-half Sixty
per cent is believed to be conservative estimate
of the loss. All the winter wheat of the State
is south OF the Platte. and the wheat crop Of the
State Is composed almost wholly OF winter wheat
The wheat crop of the State last year, a banner
yield. was 1859 aD bushels on an acreage Of
about two millions This year the acreage Is
about the same but the crop OF the State. IL is
predicted will not exceed 100000 bushels
The general sentiment is that the section OF the
State where the winter wheat has been destroyed
will be largely planted in corn. II would have
been put in spring wheat but the spring has been
so backward and the ground moist that II Is
now too late for that kind OF small grain seeding
This means one OF the largest corn acreages in the
1850 COO from which produced 15s75i6o0 bush
els This year the acreage will he nearly double
that amount. The State Board Of Agriculture Is
inclined to the opinion that what the State loses
in winter wheat acreage IT will gain In corn. rye
and oats. The impression among Nebraska grain
men is that the loss OF winter wheat I'm Nebraska
IS about the as the losses In the adjacent
States and this includes large part OF the WIN
ter wheat acreage in the country
