cUBANs ARE HARD WORKERS.
Peculiarities of the People m Set
Forth by the New President
Of the Island.

We have an island materially rich,
with fertile soil and salubrious eli
mate. The people are Industrious,
especially those in the country dis
tricts, all that they ask is to have
plenty of. work at reasonable COM
pensation. They are fond of home,
and by nature are law-abiding. They
love liberty and are brave, but relent-
less when stirred by oppression,
says Thomas Estrada Palma, in Sue
cess. The Cubans are anxious for
their children to be educated. One
of the reasons assigned in the Dec
laration of the Ten Years War was
that Spain treated us so murderous-
ly in order to pay the standing army
that oppressed us, and would not
furnish schools sufficient to educate
our children. The Cuban people are
singularly hospitable. A stranger,
visiting home, is not only treated
with kindness, but Is offered cup
of coffee as an evidence of good will.
They have what is called the south
ern type of hospitality. Though our
people are hard workers, they are
not, as a rule. as provident as peo-
pie of Industrial habits ought to be.
They have n free and easy way,
spending their money on the pres
emit rather than saving for rainy
day. They are just and honest in
their dealings and have faith in God.

A DISAPPOINTED DARKY.
and There Was n Terrible
Transformation.

1 stood one Saturday afternoon on
the porch of a Luray (Va.) hotel, and
saw file past hundred or more dar-
kies, returning from work, each and
every one of them carrying water
million" under his arm. They had
been paid off, and n convenient farm
wagon loaded with melons happened
to pass as they filed along and the
darl<ies all bought, relates writer
in Forest and Stream.
One young buck, after hugging
that melon for several blocks, lust
couldn't stand it no longer" and
without ado sat down upon the curb,
and in the absence of a jackknife he
deity tapped the melon against the
edge of the curb until it broke asun-
der. Mansfield, in transforming his
Jekyl face into that of Hyde upon
the stage, never equaled the lightning
change of countenance exhibited by
that darby. One moment his eyes
bulged, his mouth distorted, his teeth
glistened, and his face fairly glowed

Mysterious Case of Frank
Rogers and Miss Florence Ely
The Fruitless Search Which Has Been Made
For the Missing Couple.

THAT fact is often stranger than
fiction and the mystery in real
life sometimes too deep for even
the keenest detective of the country
to find a solution thereof is strikingly
illustrated by the Ely-Rogers case, OF
Evanston, Ill. Since the disappear
ance of Frank Ely Rogers, boy OF
IA years, from his home last July ac-
companied by his aunt, Miss Florence
Ely, the police and detectives of Chi
cago and the country have been un-
firing in their efforts to trace the
couple and return them safely home
to the Borrowing parents of the boy
and the aged mother Of Miss Ely. Every
clew has been followed up and every
means employed which might possibly
furnish a solution of the mystery or
induce the infatuated aunt and her
young nephew to return to the home
where only loving welcome awaits
them.
Miss Ely, up to last July, had been
music teacher in Evanston. She is
handsome gentlewoman of more than
usual intelligence, with large, express
i've dark eyes, dark brown hair and
slender form and a delicate physique.
She is 40 years old, and for 20 years
has made her home with her sister,
the wife of Mr.. James C. Rogers, as did
her mother, who is heartbroken over
the peculiar conduct of her daughter.
The family lives on Human avenue,
one of the beautiful residence streets
of Evanston, only short distance
university. Mr.. Rogers is connected
with the mercantile firm Of Carson,
Prize, Scott & Co., in Chicago, and is
man of ability and some means.
Fourteen years ago, when Frank was
born, Miss Ely idolized the baby, and
was as devoted to him as If she had
been his mother. 1t was her supreme
delight to care for and amuse him, and
as he grew into boyhood her affection
grew to be an infatuation which led
her to forsake all her social duties
and devote her entire time to her
nephew.
On the morning on which they disap-
peared (Juiy 13) it is known that Frank
left home ostensibly to attend picnic
in the woods near the town, but that he
walked by a circuitous route to the
station of the Chicago G. Northwestern
railroad. There he met his aunt, Miss
Ely, who had left a satchel with the
station agent the day before. This
] she secured and placed therein the
/ contents of box she carried, and
then threw the box away.
Frank" she called to the boy.
The boy turned quickly, took the
satchel from his aunt's hand, and The

GIGANTIC ADVERTISING.
Grand Trunk Arranges Plans for Pic
ture Exhibit

Though the Grand Trunk Railway system
carried over 10000 tourists and sportsmen
into one district of Canada's summer play
grounds last year, the Company is starting
out this year with vigorous policy of adj
vertising to still further increase the influx
of pleasure-seekers who annually travel over
this system.
The company has now decided to give the
populace of some of the larger cities in the
states Of Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky
and Pennsylvania an opportunity of seeing
the series of Photographic views it had on
exhibition at the Pan-American exposition
at Buffalo. There will be over 100 pictures
in the collection, each measuring feet
inches by feet 2 inches, in addition to one
of the finest collections of mounted fish
that has ever been shown. The fish include
specimens of black bass from the Highlands
of Ontario" dore and maskinonge from the
st. Lawrence, and-locked salmon from their
native waters, and other specimens of rare
value. A representative of the Grand Trunk
will accompany the exhibit and the art gal.
lery will be installed in the business portion
Of the cities visited. Thousands Of copies
of literature, describing the several>regions
to be advertised, will be distributed. The
exhibit will open at Saginaw, Mich, March
10, and goes from there to Grand Rapids,
thence south to several points in the other
states.
The tour will occupy ten weeks, two days
being allowed in each city

two walked out of the depot together.
They took north-bound electric car
which runs from Chicago to Milwau-
kee, and that was the last time they
were seen in Evanston. On the Goth
of last December n bundle of clothing
belonging to Miss Ely and Frank Rog-
ers was found tucked away under the
Central street station of the Milwau-
kee & st. Paul railroad in North Evans
ton, and where it is now surmised by
the police that the pair stopped ano
changed their clothing, the boy pos
sibly Disgusting himself as a girl-for
he left his collar behind-and Miss Ely
transforming herself into an older
and shabbily dressed woman. Since
then dozens of clews have been fol
lowed, but not one has led to a reliable
trace of the couple.

the twinkling of an eye, when Che
parted halves of that unripe and
white-seeded melon fell from his pal

through his slightly parted lips like
a devil incarnate, he Kissed out im-
precation after imprecation upon the
farmer, showing the, fact clearly
that the disappointed one was a past
grand master in the art of profanity.

In the Wrong place.

An old printer is quoted as author
ity for this story of Horace Greeley:
"One day as he sat at his desk he
looked up and saw a small boy stand
ing beside him. We'll, sonny, what
do you wantT he piped. Il want o
place to work in your Office And
what do you want that for?' asked
the old man. Il want to grow up and
get rich,' was the answer. Mr..
Greeley looked at him for a moment.
Get rich?' he said. I guess you
didn't notice that this is newspa-
per Office. You must be looking for
the druggist next door, Detroit
Free Press.
The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1902-03-29

Several times the couple have been
reported as being in Chicago. BALM
Winger, of Evanston, declares that he
one day saw Frank Rogers sitting in
n window of LIE Grand hotel, Chicago,
but when the police whom he notified
arrived, the boy had gone. At other
hotels and restaurants the couple have
been partially identified, but have al
ways eluded capture. They are be-
lieved to have spent some time at Wau-
kegan, a summer resort. The latest
clew, from Casselton, N. D.. appears
more hopeful than any of the others.
