litical move on the part of the United
States, but a sincere desire to do what
Is right. Therefore l beg you as person
al favor to me and the United States
government to sink your personal diff
ferences and passions and send men to
the convention who are renowned for
honor and capacity so that the conven-
ton may mean more than the Cubans
even now anticipate.
again 1 say, send the best men. The
work before your representatives is large
ly legal work. 1 care not what your party
politics are but whatever they are, for
the present party considerations must
be suspended for the sake of the great
end in view, the end that will make
history and affect the welfare of all Gu
ban people.
your delegates must be competent to
draft a constitution, and it is duty
you owe yourselves and your fellow pa
triots to see that your representation is
without party prejudice. Bear IN mind
that no constitution which does not pro-
vide for stable government will be ac-
| cepted by the United States I wish to
avoid making Cuba a second Hayti, al
though 1 do not think that possible.
You want liberty for all and for no
political party. The United States insist
that you shall have it. That Is possible,
and easily possible. We have said 1t
to the world 1t lies with you to make
our word good. Your enemies predict
! failure The people of the United States
| and their representatives hope to see you
defeat these predictions. If we were not
! your friends we would not seek the best
men you have, but would seek the dis

people to the convention who will here
after make your political system work
able and permanent"
Gen. Woods speech Is considered by
Cubans here to be the most important
declaration made since the American oc-
cupation began.
The Cuban flag was raised over the
palace by Gen. Woods permission today,
thousands of Cubans witnessing the cere-
mony. Later in the afternoon the Amer.
lean, Cuban and Spanish arms were fes-
TONED together in decorations al the
principal theater, where Gen. Wood was
present. This was the first time the Span
ish arms have been exhibited since the
evacuation.
This morning Gen. Wood witnessed the
battlefelds of San Juan and Ell Caney.
Tomorrow he will go to Manzanilio.
The military road from Santiago to San
Luis is finished as far as the summit Of
Puerto Boniato, an altitude Of 1,200 feet.
This is a distance Of eight miles. The
Bayamo and Cauto valleys are thus placed
in direct communication through Santi-
ago valley. The area affected is 5000
square miles. The sugar country which
the completion of the road will resusci-
tate is believed to be the finest in the
world. Seventeen miles of the highway
remain to be constructed.

but little cutting of fax has taken place.
All but the late flax was cut some time

DISEASES OF WOMEN AND Chill DREN

Marriage is a serious affair for n
woman. 1t involves many new and seri-
Gus duties for which none but a well
woman is fitted. Too often Young
woman. who is weak in the organs which
make her a woman, enters into wife
hood, without considering the conse-
quences. Then her troubles multiply, and
she becomes burden to herself and to
her husband. Her children, if she have
any, are sickly and puny. The relation
that began so happily ends disastrousIy
But there is way to avoid all these
troubles and their consequences. The
