Havana Is Healthy.

The passenger department of the
Southern Pacific railroad has just re-
ceived a copy of the Wine and Spirit
Circular ct New York, the largest
publication of its kind in the cnun-
try, in which the editor, Mr. T M
Gilmore, took occasion to comment
npon q recent trip to Havana, Cuba.
He made the trip via the Southern
Pacijc's New Orleans-Havana steam
ship line, the lately improved service
of which has been very marked.
Speaking of the sanitary conditions
of the Cuban capital, the editor
says:
Havana is said to be the cleanest
city in the world, and / have no
doubt that the claim is altogether
reasonable. In the poorest parts of
the city, down where the riff-raff
lives and out in the very suburbs,
the streets are cleaner than Fifth
Avenue, New York, under a reform
administration. Only this morning
[ saw a squad Of men with brooms,
sbovels and carts sweeping q stone
pike that runs through a struggling
village nine miles out of the city
proper"
The above is a sample of the OBJ
seryation of travellers to the quaint
old Spanish City, and as the South
ern Pacific will boom the Havana
business this winter it is well that the
public should know something as to
the healthfulness and cleanliness of
this once unsightly city.-Houston
