MILLIONS OF OUR MONEY lN-
 VESTED IN THE ISLAND.
One Reason Why United States Does Not Want to See Island Rent
 by Internal Strife.

Reliable information places the amount of the investments made by Americans in the island of Cuba as something around $150,000,00O. sum which would suggest a desire to share in the politics of the island, but such is said to not be the case, for Americans who have investments there have refrained thus far from mixing in the governmental affairs of the island. The reciprocity treaty is said to have been the commercial sal vation of Cuba. It has given to her our protected markets for her chief ex- portS-sugar and tobacco which form ST per cent. of the total exports or the islands, and in return Cuba ex- bends fully one-half her annual buying power, amounting to $100,000 900, in the United States. Before the Span lsh war about the only large Amer ican interests were at the extreme eastern end of the island in sugar es- tates and mines. Now, after the lapse of eight years, Americans own fully one-third of the island, and S15O, ,00O.- 900 of American capital has been in- vestetd not only in products of the soil, but in telegraph and telephone systems, railroads, electric roads, ho- tels, banks. municipal roads and even army vouchers. Whole towns have been built by Americans, and colonies established where scarcely a word of Spanish is spoken.
 The combined efforts of all these various interests are creating along the line of the trocha an American in- terest, center and sentiment in the very heart of Cuba, and an industrial development that is stimulating the surrounding country and by example teaching the native Cubans, first. to work where the employment is of fered, and then, to those who have the necessary ambition, to cultivate their own lands. The number of American colonies which have been established in Cuba since the war az gregates 29. the whole eastern end be- ing controlled industriallly by Amer jeans. A list of these colonies is in- teresting:
 Province of Pinar del Rio-Baja, Las Ovas, Bahia Honda, Herradura, Cabanas, Mariel, Artemisa, Palacios.
 Havana province-Rincon.
 Province of Matanzas-JTnion. Ira. bo.
 Province of Santa Clara-Manas- cas.

this produces drawing of the ten. dons in the groin of the leg from which the athlete leaps. This system is well liked by track fans and is very pretty to watch, but it requires quick jerk, which often causes an in- jury which is not quickly healed.
 The prettiest form" and probably the most serviceable is that of going over fiat as the body presses above the bar and alighting on hands and feet at the same time. In this style of jumping the athlete runs from point directly in front of the bar, first having paced off his steps, and when he reaches the last pace mark on the run, if he leaps from the left foot, his right will naturally be in the air first, consequently the left must catch up with the right by the time the body is directly above the bar. where his line. The impetus which the run gives carries the athlete over the stick and he alights on the mat on hands and feet at the same time. This is probably the most serviceable method, as not bit of the height to which the athlete raises his body is wasted" in the leap over the bar. He does not raise the highest point of his body to such a great height as in other forms" and consequently he is able to accomplish higher mark.
 The only danger in this form is in landing. Several athletes have been known to sprain their wrists, or even break them in landing in this man. ner. and extreme care should be taken to give the legs and hips at least the same weight which the arms take.

Sports and Athletics.

Forms" in the running high jump are as varied as are the physiques of athletes who attempt them. There is no event in which the manner of per forming with fair success possesses so many ways Of accomplishment. Some favor running at the bar from an an gle of about 30 degrees and with one hip almost against the stick, making the leap by pulling the legs over in a sitting position. This method is used from either side and it is said that the world champion in the high jump accomplished the leap which set the mark in just that manner, but as rule athletes find this form" unsat- isfactory. though many of them use it.

One-fourth of it's al- ready paid-in capital of S2,500,000 is American, the remaining three-fourths being equally Cuban, British and French, but it is controlled entirely from New York. Further than that, American capital controls absolutely the electric traction of the island, per haps one-ha1f of the tobacco output, about one-quarter of the sugar indus try, the telephone and telegraph serv- ice, which, however, is under govern ment control; practically all of the railroad systems east of Santa Clara, quarters of the cattle industry, something more than $10000,0 900 in real estate and unimproved lands, with total holding of over 100000 acres; practically all of the mining, and most of the steam tonnage run ming to the island. Various ventures absorb great deal of the activity of the island. The Cardenas city water works are owned by an American cor poration, and in the retail and whole sale trade of Havana Americans are much in evidence.

lH 60 WILD
IN RNSH FOR LAND ON INDIAN
 TERRITORY RESERVATION.
Boomers Disregard Law and Run Over Each Other to Get Richest
 Claims.

Thorne, Nev.-With the firing of a mighty blast of dynamite from the top ef Grant peak, the highest point In the adjacent mountains, the Wal ter Lake Indian reservation was open Ing at noon October %.
 At given signal. hundreds of searchers for gold hurried helter-skel- ter over the boundary lines of plain ana mountain, and before the great cloud of smoke which rose into the ar from the dynamite explosion had orlfted away spectacular race of automobiles, race horses and vehicles was on. So great was the rush across the desert from the line nearest flaw thorne that number of persons mar rowly escaped being trampled over, and in numerous instances injuries were reported.
 Horeses were ridden until they dropped and automobiles became stalled in the deep sands Jaded and overcome by thirst, numbers of pros pectors barely summoned enough strength to make their locations.
 Those who had waited for the sig nal from the top of Mount Grant be- fore rushing into the reservation found that all the most valuable claims in the vicinity of the Rich Dutchman's, Cottonwood and numer- ous other creeks emptying into the southwestern sections of Walter lake had been taken up by men who had rushed in during the night before, contrary to law. Even men who em- ployed launches to take them across Walter lake from the eastern side found that their efforts were of no avail, as they were much too late to be on equal footing with the men who had disregarded the law.
 The opening of the reservation was not as imposing as it promised to be on account of the fact that countless numbers of miners had flocked in dur ing the night and early morning. com pletely overwhelming the Indian po- lice, of whom there were but II to guard 75 miles of territory.
 Special Land Agent Parks deplores the fact that the rush was allowed to take place when it was known that the laws of the United States in re- gard to opening a reservation had been evaded. He says there is yet possibility that the present opening may be declared invalid and new one called for.
 Substitute Indian Agent Robert Loyegrove declares that the United States engineers sent here to carry out reclamation work on a portion of the Walter Lake reservation that has been allotted to the Indians had coupled their time in placing launch es on the edge of Walter lake for the purpose of participating in the rush contrary to the law, which states that all persons shall keep off the reser- vation until the time fixed for it's opening.

Coughs Up the Cash.

The receiver of the Bank of DeValls Bluff has received from the Ameri- can Bonding Company of Baltimore, Md, check for $6,000 in satisfaction of Judgment against the bonding company as surety of George c. Strong cashier of the defunct institution. This matter has been pending in the court for several years, the receiver of the bank bringing suit in the Chan cery Court of Prairie county, where a Judgment was obtained against the bonding company. An appeal was taken to the Supreme Court and that court affirmed the decision of the chancellor. The suit was stubbornly and strenuously resisted by the bond Ing company all the way through.
