Wise Should BE Chosen.
HAVANA, Aug. 2O,-Gen. Maxine Go
mez publishes a letter in La Lucia re-
garding the election of delegates to the
forthcoming constitutional convention.
1t is addressed to the soldiers OF the
revolutions of 1865 and 1895. Gen. Go
mez says, in part
THE convention should consist of
genuine revolutionists, and it will so
consist, unless the people, fattered by
fine words, allow what they have con-
ouered to be taken away from them.
Nobody should be allowed to enter
the convention who formerly DETAINED
the revolutionists unless Cubans wish
to outrage honor and sacred duty.
THE enemy are working hard; but
let Cubans remember that those who
opposed the revolution cannot be ac-
cepted at the last moment. Many rich
and intellectual persons have shown
opposition to the revolution. All these
should be left out. Patriotism has the
right to choose the most worthy-no'
the most wise-until the republic il

BAY ST. LOUIS TRAGEDY.
surcouf Killed Brother-in-Law - Horse
whipped For Beating His Wife With
Fence Rail. the Brute Takes
Terrible Revenge.


BAY ST.. LOUIS, Miss, Aug. 2O.-A
terrible tragedy occurred here this
morning in which Joe De Paoli, one OF
the most estimable young men of the
Bay, lost his life. He was shot down
by his brother-in-law, Paul Surcouf.
Some years ago Paul Sureouf married
Catherine De Paoli, who has borne him
several children. Their life has been
reasonably prosperous, and would no
doubt have been happy but for the fact
that for number of years Surcouf has
been strongly addicted to drinking and
when under the influence OF intoxicants
has been in the habit of beating and
otherwise maltreating his wife. Last
night was no exception TO the rule and
after an evening spent in drink he en-
tered his home and proceeded to beat
his wife about the head and body with
a fence rail Mrs. Surcouf fled from
her home and took refuge with her
brothers. Joe and Fred De Paoli. This
morning the brothers armed themselves
with horsewhips and went in search OF
Surcouf When they found him they
began to treat him to taste of his own
medicine, lashing him about the head
and body until their arms were tired.
Bruised, bleeding, half crazy with pain
and shame, Surcouf broke away and
after washing the blood from his face
| hnrrnr,.oI yuhn
lived near him, telling her he was going
TO spend day in the woods. Then he
went hunting game. He found the two
brothers on the street. Fred Paoli saw
him coming and took refuge in the
blacksmith shop. He called to Joe to
come, too, but Joe faced the maddened
brute. Surcouf put the gun to his
shoulder, aimed it carefully and pulled
the trigger The first cartride failed
to explode but before Joe could close
with him he fired the second barrel,
the entire load taking effect in the
groin. Joe Paoli fell moaning to the
ground, bleeding horribly from the
gaping wound and Surcouf was i'm
mediately captured, For time there
was talk of lynching but cool heads
9 prevailed and the brutal husband and
murderer was locked up safely His
q victim lived but few minutes after
: the shooting. Joe De Paoli was very
popular man in Bay st. Louis and was
y engaged to a handsome New Orleans
girl. As he lay dying he begged thai

AMERICAN LARD EXCELS.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-"The agra

are trying to create popular prejudice
against the consumption of American
meats. and particularly of American
lard, says Consul-General Guenther at

American lard is attested to, however,
by the report of the board of chemical
examiners, covering the examinations
of the last two years, which states;
IA thorough chemical examination
shows that American lard is not only
the same as German lard in regard to
the smell, taste and consistency, but
that it frequently excels in dazzling
white color. Among the several sam
ples received there was none to be OBJ
