BUTCH" WEYLER

champion heavyweight torturer Of
the world. His title rested more on
his robust and vigorous methods

Rcting pain. he has been, so to
speak. the Jeffcies Of his profession
rather than the itZsimmons or the
Kid Mccoy. But the eternal princi
pie that the pen Is mightler than the
sword has again been vindicated
AS unpleasant as Weyler made this
old world by the ancient instru
ment of torture, he has exceeded
even his own record since he took
mp the pen. The few enemies of
the celebrated exponent of the
gentle are of starvation who re
maiued on this side of the Atlantic
when Weyler was recalled from
Cuba to Spain are expected to turn
up their toes as soon as they come
within the fatal radious of bis
book.
II will be noted with pleasure
that Weyler devotes few chapters
to explaining why be did not exc
