when an orderly dashed up or down
and drew the fire Of the men of those
sections that we with the slightest
safety could peep over the ridge to

It was just before noon. Fighting

In her own sitting-room, wondering
about the green-haired woman and
the extent Of her acquaintance with
her husband. Was her name Lenora,
and did she know where he went

Constance would have given worlds
to be able to pierce the distance with
her vision and to see her husband at
that moment, what he was doing, with
whom he was talking. Coaticoke! The
woman must have taken the north
ern train and he the SOUTHERN! Why
had she not thought Of it before?
Their meeting was purely accidentally;
she may have mistaken her husband
for an acquaintance. Why had she
not thought Of that, too? Constance
arose and shook the few remaining
vapors from her mind, took off her
gloves and bonnet, and went about
her sewing, humming lively air.

Have had nothing to do but to work
the machinery thus established. The
tendency here, as in other Latin.
American countries, is to discuss pub
lie affairs and draw out rules and
forms rather than to put the princi-
Piles into practice. A case in point is
that Of the Santiago waterworks. The
Americans paved the streets Of that
city with asphalt and installed mod
ern sewerage system. The. water sup
ply, altho augmented by. the Ameri-
can Engineers was insufficient for
flushing purposes, and the task. of
completing the works and providing
the additional water service was
handed over to the Cuban authorities.
Since then nothing has been done be-
yond considering plans; but pressure
has at last been brought to bear on
the Cubans by the American govern
ment, and the outlook is more hope
full. Meanwhile. the water Of santi-
ago is VIGOROUSLY bad, while the sew
erage plant is deteriorating. 1t Is no.
ticeable also that the roads in the
Of Santiago constructed
by the Americans are showing de-
cided evidence of neglect. In. other
departments the disposition Is to re-
vert to the old methods.

he, as a buxom lady bowed and
smirked to Forbes and myself. "She

There was no hesitation on our part.
Leaving our horses we followed the

sides of the cone. The common room
was at the back Of the shop and looked
over the roofs Of half-a-dozen houses
clinging to the heights above the val
ley. AS we entered 1t from q narrow
side-street. the mingled tunes of nu-
merous musical boxes greeted us, a
pleasant surprise for such honored
guests. as. we arranged by the watch
maker, the only son of the robust
widow and brother of the charming
little Martha. The sun was sparkling
thru the lattice Of the window, and
danced about a silver salver placed on
a stool in the center Of the room, on
which were SECTIONS of a luscious
black-seed melon. Its deep pink flesh
seemed to have a frosty rime upon
1t, and it was both cool and sweet.
Martha herself waited upon us, and,
after handing round Turkish coffee,
rolled us cigarettes with her own deft
little fingers. Her mother had been
suspected by the Turks Of belonging
to some revolutionary committee. had
been condemned to death, and, in fact,
was about to be executed that very
afternoon, and was simply saved from
the rope by the timely arrival Of the
Russians. There was, therefore. a true
ring of hospitality about the welcome

There is, very little, indication of
American colonization in eastern Cuba.
In Santiago, with it's 10000 inhabi-
tants and memories and relics Of the
war, there are very. few Americans;
it does not possess a single American
| or, English hotel, and the greatest anx-
iety Q" the American visitor is to get
/ out of It as soon as. possible. The i'm
migrants are mostly Spaniards, a class
which carries on the commerce of the
country and performs a large pro-
portion Of its mental work. The Gu
ban and Spanish elements in the pop
ulatlon appear to have let bygones be
bygones, the affinity Of race probably
assisting the process of Cancellation.
It Is otherwise with the relations Of
Cubans and Americans. The educated
Cubans are as rule friendly to the
United States; many regard political
ABSORPTION into the Union not only
inevitable but desirable from a per-
sonal and pecuniary point Of view;
would confer greater local freedom
than is at present allowed under
American guardianship. But the mass
of people dislike the Americans, while
they fear the American nation as a
whole, and regard the policy of it's
government with suspicion. They be-
lieve that that policy has for it's ulti-
mate aim the acquisition and annexa-
ton Of the island. They point to the
American flag, which still flies over
Moro castle at Santiago, to the pres
ence of American soldiers in their
midst, and totthe appropriation of ter
ritorys for naval stations, as proof of
Americas intentions.
| Sensible of this underlying current
of antagonism, Americans in the re-
public speak. bitterly of, the ingrati-
tude Of the Cubans. They have, per-
haps, some ground for complaint. The
enormous revolution which they eff
fected during the military occupation
of the island has scarcely received its
due recognition from the world. They
established a civil government on
! carefully thought-out lines suited to
the needs Of the population, intro
duced enlightened systems Of proce-
dure In every department Of the public
service, and carried out public works

construction, sanitation, water sup

WIRELESS MONOPOLY
Is Prevnted by Action of the Recent

Is Prevnted by Action of the Recent
+ international Convention.
Washington Cor. New York Tribune.
Wireless telegraph companies are
common carriers, and must therefore
receive from any source and transmit
to any destination all messages offered
to them. This conclusion, which fore
stalls any monopoly, was reached by
the Berlin. International conference,
and was the gist OF the only import
ant resolution adopted at its session.
On August IA the. congress adopted
a protocol of eight articles as ground
work of general treaty, all of them
being Of minor interest except the fol-
lowing Coast stations are obliged
to receive adm transmit kilograms go
ing or returning from ships, without
distinction as to the system Of wireless
te1egraphy employed by the Ships,
Under this rule ''radiograms," as
wireless kilograms were termed at the
conference, are to be placed in the
category Of merchandise, and radio
graph corporations. as common car
riers, compelled to cooperate in de-
livering them at their destination. !
The congress dealt solely with pa
cific conditions, recognizing that each
nation would take care Of it's own
wireless messages in time of war. In
this connection it became known that
Germany, as war measure, was pre-
pared to take care of her own coast
by sending such. powerful interference
waves from Heligoland as would pre-
vent any enemy from carrying on any
communication in the North sea, and
that all the European powers were
ready to exercise absolute control over
all wireless stations within their own
borders.
The common carrier declaration,
which is aimed against monopoly
was adopted at the instance Of the
American delegates, who were familiar
with the United States statutes and
supreme court decisions on that gen.
eraI prtnctpfe, and was warmly es-
poused by all the delegates except
those from Great Britain and Italy,
who pleaded. lack of authority in their
instructions. It is significant that
these are the only two countries we'd
ded to the Marconi system.
