Gomez's Wonderful Eyes.

General Maxine Gomez, the Cuban
patriot who died a few days ago, was
thus described by one who campaigned
with him before American interven-
ton: 'He is a gray little man. His
clothes do not fit well, and, perhaps,
if you saw it in photograph, his fig
ure might seem old and ordinary. But
the moment he turns his keen eyes on
you they strike like a blow from the
shoulder. You feel the will, the fear
lessness and the experience Of men
that is in those eyes, and their owner
becomes a giant before you"
