RELIGIOUS WORK
IN HAVANA
The Protestant Churches Are
About to Enter the
Field.

NEW YORK, June 29.-It is the inten-
ton of several mission boards in this city
to begin religious work in Havana this
fall. The Presbyterian Board of Home
Missions is one of them and the Congre-
gationalists and Episcopahans will en-
large work already begun there. All in
tend TO build churches.
Jose Eugenio Marx, a prominent bust
gress man of Havana. especially inter
ested in the religious development of the
sailed for Hamburg after several CON
suggested that a stone church erected
in Havana twenty-five years ago as a
place for protestant worship, be used by
some one of the denominations. Owing
10 complications under Spanish rule, this
building was never used. The building
cost $4,000. Mr.. Marx, speaking of
church conditions in Havana, said:
1T is a mistake to assume that prot
estant effort in Cuba means of neces-
sity injury to Catholic interests there.
Conditions in Cuba are about the same
as they are here. The catholic church
under the present bishop Is making COM
mendable progress against tremendous
odds. I am not in the counsels of either
the Catholic or Protestant church, but
am in a position to know a good deal
about both. When the overthrow OF
Spanish rule cut out s250,O0O of the Cath
Ole church's income, ready money came
from Europe to tide matters over. just
now an effort is being made to pay some
of that money back and the effort is be-
ing crowned with success

ON BOARD THE TRANSPORT oil.

We were nine days in quarantine at
Honolulu. and niHe miserable days they

immigration at one point or another and
the fumes of sulphur were always in

ture home" some one said

and they distri~~ted coal from stern to
bow The coal was nearly all passed
through the soldiers dining room, which
was not used for dining purposes for a
week, the men being compelled to eat on
deck or any old place they could find.
Can there be more severe punish
ment for a human being than we ex-
perienced? Nine long days and nights
within ten minutes ride of the most
beautiful of cities, and then to leave
without touching a foot on land!
We left Honolulu bay April q and ev-
erybody heaved a big sigh of relief when
the steamer got in motion. The sick
were left at the marine hospital to fol-
low by transport when able.
Two days out smallpox broke out for
the second time on the trip. Sergeant
Long, Company I. 18th Infantry, was the
victim. He was on the sick report sew
eral days, but the surgeon each day
marked him duty which implied that
the surgeon did not consider him sick
enough for the hospital and compelled
him TO try to eat the coarse food given
the soldiers. L was present the last day
the sergeant was up before the doctor"
He presented a pitiabIe appearance. He
was almost a nervous wreck and told
the doctor SO, but the doctor marked
him duty That afternoon his com
rades carried the sergeant to the hos
pital on a litter and they were COMPEL
ed 10 take him in.
1t was rumored around at night that
smallpox was again in our midst. A por-
ton of the deck had been roped off near
the hospital and the sergeant was isolat-
ed. The next day every one was vaccin-
ated again, which makes three times on

HUNDREDS DIE
IN RAGING FLOOD
A Cloudburst in West Virginia
Causes Loss OF Life and
Property.

BLUEFIELD, W. Va, June 26th.-One
hundred lives and 100000 of property
have been wiped out by a cloud burst
and food which swept the Elkhorn Val
ley. from the head of the branch down
to Tug river Tn rainfall began early
the morning of June 22nd. being prac-
ticaIly a cloudbburst, the streams rising
so rapidly that there was no chance for
the people TO leave their houses and fee
for safety. Along the Norfolk and West
ern railroad, from Davey TO Ennis, dis
lance of 43 miles the region is practically
in ruins. The mines have suffered heav-
ily but since most of the miners were
at work, when the worst of the flood
came the list of those lost Is made up
almost entirely of women and children.
In many of the little mining towns
there is not left house to mark the
site of the town. The details of the
wreck have not been told as every tele-
graph line is down and the railroad mas
been put out of business for several days
at least In most places, according to
the reports at hand, the waters rose and
fell again within three hours and the de-
struction within that time was measured
only bv what laid in the path Of the
food.
AS usual there were scenes which are
hard to tell Many of the miners OF the
region are colored, and it is said that al
some places where liquor was obtained
there were many instances OF rooolng
tho dead. and the shooting of the mis-
creants when caught. There was much
suffering. but the Governor called out
the troops and asked for relief which
came readily. and the wants Of the poor
were relieved as speedily as possible,

| were experienced once more. Fortunately
no new cases broke out, and the reports
from the hospital were that the sergeant
had a very light dose and would soon re-
cover. Another report was that the poor
fellow hao recovered from the smallpox
| only TO be taken down with the mumps.
This proved TO be true.
The hospital is overlooking with
mumps cases. An old sergeant, who has
nearly thirty years to his credit, was
| much mortified when he felt his glands
swelling with such a juvenile ailment.
He sheepishly told the doctor of the
swelling, hoping it was other than the
mumps, but was doomed to disappoint-
ment and was bundled off to the hos
pital.
Every day new cases would show up
and l sincerely felt sorry for the pa
| tients. Soldiers generally consider "a case
of mumps humorous subjec,, and as

The Water ReetIe.

The great carnivorous water beetle,

minute intervals to come up, poke the
tips of it's wings out of the water and
jam some air against it's spiracles be-

night from the surface of the Thames,
lift again those horny wing cases, I'M
fold a broad and beautiful pair of
gauzy wings and whirl off on a visit
of love and adventure to some distant

bullet from the air above.
When people are sitting in a green
house at night with no lamp lighted,
talking or smoking, they sometimes
hear a smash as if a pebble had been
dropped on the glass from above. 1t
is a dysticus beetle whose compound
eyes have mistaken the shine of the
glass in the moonlight for the CLEAN

At night some of the whirligig bee

whirling in incessant circles in cor

and almost musical sound upon the
water.-Spectator.
