Her WORK IN CUBA.
What Miss Clara Bar
ton Has Accom-
plished.
ASYLUMS FOR ORPHANS.
Homes for Children Estab-
lished All Over the
Island.

Miss Clara Barton, the president of
International Red Cross Society, who re-
turned from Cuba recently, after two
months of labor among the reconcen-
trado orphans, gives this account of her
work
1.-THE work has been going on for
three months or more" said Miss Bar
ton, 'and we now have u asylums, ac-
commodating about 1900 children from
the ages of to 10, and located in the
provinces of Havana, Matanzas and
Santa Clara They are every one of
them orphan children of the reconcen-
trados who were driven from their
homes in the country or smaller towns
into these larger cities. Until we came
to their rescue they were children of
the street, dirty, unkempt and often
diseased as the result of the privations
which they had undergone. The peo-
pie of the towns could not take them
into their homes and care for them,
because they had all they could do to
look after themselves, and in conse-
quence many of these little ones were
like wild children
Eve started out by enlisting the I'M
terest of the best people of each town
where we have become established, and
everywhere met with a ready response.
The Cuban ladies have taken up this
work in way that is astonishing and

ban ladies, who superintend and direct
the conduct of the asylum, the younger

other places of interest along the way,
Chatsworth, the seat of the Duke of

when the people recover from the eff
fects of the war and prosperity returns
to the country, the Cubans will
themselves assume the care of these
orphan children. Meanwhile they will
remain the charges of the Red Cross

bans has been most pleasant and we
have high opinion of the character
and principle of the Cuban people with
whom our work has brought us in con-

Next year there will be a great exc

transatlantic companies have evidently
made up their minds to be prepared
for it, and rush orders are in force
at the shipbuilding yards along the
Clyde and at Belfast and Tyneside, hur-
rying to completion the big boats which
the White Star, Cunard and other COM
panies are now building as additions
to their fleets. The North German
Lloyd Company has on the stocks a
liner that in size and speed is expected
10 excel the famous Kaiser Wilhelm de
Crosse, and what with the Oceanic of
the White Star and the Saxonia and
hernia of the Cunard, there will not
be any lack Of ferry accommodations
when the great rush of tourists comes
in 1900.
The Paris exhibition will be. of
course, the great attraction, but those

both, but in this charge we lost several
men. In our company CID we lost our
first sergeant and one private. The left
and right were both doing as effective
work as our regiment and the insurgents
were driven to a considerable distance
from their first position. At 4:3O the fight
ing ceased and we were again placed in
our relative positions, the whole line can-
nected up, and we camped for the night.
The insurgents were too badly demon
allied to attack US again, as they cannot
stand the United States soldiers yels and
charges. If we would just keep one place,
as the Spaniards did, and not use any
strategy on them they could hold out
longer. Monday morning we began to
throw up small breast works, as in our
front now is a broad open field. The
left moved on to the front and captured
the town of Colooquen. Here they had
some very hard fighting but were vic
torioCs as usual. They have also thrown
up intrenchments and camped, as has
also the right. do not know what the
object is in this unless it is to send troops
up the bay and land them, then drive the
insurgents into this open field in our front,
where we can slaughter them unless they
surrender.
The country around Manila and up the
bay is comparatively level, while back
toward the interior it is all mountains,
and there are many half civilized tribes
there who are very hostile to the insur-
gents. The main point for US to capture
is Malolos Aguinaldo's headquarters. Our
loss now is about 80 or 60 killed and 200
wounded, while the insurgents loss is esti-
mated at from 1900 to 5000 killed and at
least 10000 wounded. The country we
have gone over is bare, not a bamboo
shack to be seen. a swe have burned all
as we went 1t does not seem right to
burn their homes but they have acted (
so unreasonable that mercy cannot be |
shown them. When we were doing all in /
cur power to help them they turned |
against US. They seem to think that lib |
erty meant for them to do as they please /
but TO their sorrow. they have found out |
different. We do not know how large an /
army AguinaldO has but he has more men I
than rifles, for We cannot capture many |
guns, for when one is shot another insur-
gent, who is armed only with knife, /
gets the gun and away he goes.
You can only attribute this war to the |
ignorance Of the people. They have been /
kept in servitude by Spain so long that |
they do not know what liberty means.
Agulnaldo is deceitful, treacherous fell |

FOB 4 POSTOFFICE
Bold Burglars Make a Good
Haul at Greensburg.
SAFE Is BLOWN OPEN
And $500 Taken--No Clue to
the Robbers.

The postofice at Greensburg gwas rob-
bed Thursday night by what is supposed
to be one of the most audacious gangs Of
safe-crackers that has ever visited south
ern Kansas. Wherever the gangs work
has come to light it has been a success.
At Greensburg the robbers entered the
postofice through rear window, near
where. it is said, young men have their
sleeping rooms, but so cleverly was the
work done that no one was alarmed. The
cracked by some new method, it is
thought, which, while not making the
loud report accompanying the old-style
conclusions, does it's work as effectively.
The safe was looted of $500 in cash, and
large amount of stamps and valuable
papers were destroyed. A gentleman VINO
was in from Pratt yesterday said that it
was the neatest job of safe-cracking he
ever heard of.
No clue to the robbers has been discov-
cred. The postmaster Immediately noti-
fed the department at Washington and
the department wired him that the post
office inspector had been ordered TO
Greensburg with the best detective eerv-
ice at his command, and it is thought
that the professional safe-crackers will
soon be brought to justice.
1t is thought the work at Greensburg
was done by the same men who operated
so successfully at BUTLER a few nights
ago, when the grain office of Wall C
Rogalsky was burglarized and the safe
cracked in the same manner as was done
at Greensburg.

OLIVER TWIST "


The Graham-Earle company presented
OLIVER Twist" at the Crawford Grand last
evening to a large audience. The story of
this play is too well known to require
comment Fagin, the Jew, was powerfully
delineated by John II. Nicholson, his fren-
zied raving in the Jail scene being very
fine. F. C. Huebner made a capital Bill
Skies, his whole manner and voice fitting
the part exactly. AS Nancy Skies, Marcy
Dow Ziele again showed great cleverness,
the role being totally different from the
others she has undertaken here The
death scene of Bill and Nancy was very
strong. James Martin, as Mr. Bundle,
and c. H. RossKam, as Mr.. Brownlow,
were both good. Mart w Zielie, as John
DaWkinS, made a firSt-class artful dodger
Marie De Trace carried the double role of
Oliver Twist and Rose agile very neatly.
