HAS EXECUTED MANY.
Tren Con, the Negro, Who Was a Terror
in Cuba.

A man whose boast is that he has
taken 1872 lives, and whose proud delight
is to enlarge upon the several and orig
inal methods employed in this cold
blooded butchery, can hardly be be-
lieved possible in this civilized close of
the nineteenth century. In the olden
days of French revolution, the Spanish
lnquisition and the CORY red axe of rob-
Der German barons, such characters cut
out many a page of bloody history, but
for such a monster to exist in these
days of mercy and to have ruled at the
very door of our own free country
seems almost incredible. Yet such a
one does live, and, says the San Fran
cisco Call, until quite recently held
full and brutal sway as professional
executioner" for Maceo in Santiago de
Cuba. This brute, for he is little else,
is named 'Tren Con-" He is a burly
negro, coal black, with beetling brows
brilliancy, cruel, cold and seldom blink
ing. His large mouth, massive chin
and strong white teeth give but hint
of his marvellous physical strength His
muscles stand out on his arms and
shoulders like great ripe cocoanuts.
Never has ''Tren Con- been known to
miss or take two blows with his keen
machete on a quivering, helpless VIC
tim.
Maceo made this black fiend his Off
cial eXecutioner, with full discretionary
power, and the dark tales of devilish
tortures, as well as the Negroes own
boast of 1872 heads, indicate that he car
ried out the duties of his horrible office
well and to the full limit of authority.
'Tren Con- Is now in the hands of
the American soldiers at MORO to be
tried for murder, and will doubtless
soon be thing of the past.
He was captured with 80 other rob-
bers, members of a band under his own
leadership, who had been the terror of
the country people until the boys in
blue rounded up" the bandits captur-
ing the 80 aforementioned, besides kill
ing 10.
Since his Imprisonment he has never
uttered a single word of regret for the
many lives that are written against
his name in the book of judgment; but,
on the contrary, has taken especial de
light in RECALLING his guards with sick
ening accounts of ingenious methods
for extracting information from politi-
cal prisoners and the proper etiquette
governing the office of public eXecu-
tions. He seems to fear nothing in the
realization of the fact that he must
soon pay the penalty of his crimes by
himself suffering the death penalty,
and in discussing the matter merely
says that he could perform the job bet
ter than any bungling American execu-
toner. He is closely watched lest he
should increase his horrible record of
1872 lives to 163--with himself in the
double role of slayer and victim.

The Dahlia's History.

TOM the LOHuOH 'lbbe.
More than one hundred years ago
Baron Humboldt discovered the dahlia.
a small, single flower, in Mexico. Could
some prophetic vision have revealed to
him the dahlia of to-day in its dazzling
hues and varied forms he might per-
haps, peen prouder Of that discovery
than of all his other scientific achieve
ments. It was sent by him to the b.
,tanical Gardens. Madrid, where it re-
ceived the name of dahlia in honor of
the botanst, Professor Andrew Dahl.
The same year it was introduced into
England, where it was cultivated I'M
der glass. For few years it was lost
to cultivation, then reintroduced into
England. Cultivation soon developed
the double form, and every color eX-
cept blue. For many years the ideal
dahlia of the cultiVators was perfectly
double, a ball-shaped flower. Those who
remember the compact flowers of 80 or
40 years ago know how nearly that
idal was realized. and remember the
deserved popularity of the dahlia of
that day. But people soon tired of the
regularity of that type, and for few
years it was neglected Florists We're
giving time, labor and thought to the
development of the"rese carnation, chy-
santhemum and other popular flowers.
At last some far-seeing cultivator rec
ognized the possibilities of the dahlia,
and in new, improved and more beau
tiful shades of color it resumes its
sway. and to-day greets us in so many
varied and attractive forms that every
taste may be suited.

wEsToN's BUFFALO BULL FIGHT.
Brave Soldier Mounted His Adversary
and Dispatched Him With n Knife,

From the Philadelphia Times.
Since the advent of General John T.
Weston into the office of commissary
general there has been evident salts
faction among the subordinates and
employees of the commssary generals
department. He is loved by&everybody,
General Weston's army career has been
eventful and interesting full of exciting
incidents, of which the following in
stance is perhaps as striking as any
1t was told by an officer of the ARMY
and Navy club a day or two ago:
There was in the army nomore reck-
lessly daring subaltern than was Cen
eral Weston in his young days. In 1869,
when a lieutenant, he went with Cen
eral Sheridan on an expedition against
the Cheyennes.
"One evening after going into camp
a small herd of buffalo was sighted
The lieutenant had thrown off his sad
die and put aside his arms. He caught
up his belt, in which We're revolver and
knife and leaped upon his bareback
horse. After a race he caught up with
huge bull and emptied his revolver
into his side. The bull faced him. Wes-
ton was several miles from camp and
had no more cartridges.
Determined not to be laughed at,
he dismomted and drew his knife. He
walked to the side of the bull and the
animal turned. he began to run, but
the bull kept his lowered head always
toward him. He kept stopping and
turning until the sweat poured from
him. At last he managed to get be-
hind the bull, and with a leap landed
upon its back.
THE buffalo, with a snort of terror,
dashed onward in a mad, numbering
gallop. The soldier worked his way
on to the brute's shoulders fastened
his fingers in its name and began to
hack away at the throat of the terror
stricken buffalo. ] took time, but
finally the knife went through hair and
hide.
The brute gave a wheeling, roaring
cough and fell forward, plunging it's
nose into the earth throwing the rider
fifteen feet in front. Weston was
bruised and stunned. but the brute was
beyond doing him any harm.
I'm his early youth Weston was for
a time an iron molder in Louisville,
Ky. Recently he visited the city. His
fashionable friends wished to make
much of him, but their visitor slipped
away and for one day could not be
found. He passed that day with an
old Irishman, a molder, now retired"

The New Orleans teachers, to
whom the city is indebted for
services rendered many years ago,
are having hard time getting
their money, although che consti-
tutional convention ordered the
Board of Liquidation to pay the
claims. The teachers won their case
before all the State courts, but the
Board is evidently trying to de
prive them of their hard earned
salaries. The case is now before
the United States Supreme Court
and the end is not yet in sight.
The New Orleans papers are unan-
jmous in condemning the authorities
for attempting to defraud the teach
ers of their salaries. In the mean
time the Board is spending thous-
ands of dollars in the courts and
lawyers are making big fees while the
poor teachers are kept from ollect-
ing the money which is recognized
tole theirs by every principle OF
law and equity.
