CUBAN 1NsuRREoTIoN GROWING.
People in Various Provinces Becoming
More and More Excited.

The revolution in Cuba is growing
steadily in spite of all that can be
done by the government officials The
surrender Wednesday OF two insurgent
leaders in the provinces of Matanzas
and santa Clara and the return OF a
few insurgents in response to the gov
ernment s offer of amnesty are vastly
more than offset by the growth Of the
insurgent sentiment in the country dls'

sons arriving at Havana from the eoun-
try are unanimous in saying that the
people are restless and becoming more
and more excited. There are grave
doubts of the loyalty of recruits, and
especially Of negro recruits, who are
suspected in many quarters OF Will
ineness to join the rebellion, with
which many Of their race are ldentlhea'
The undeniable evidences Of the growth
Of insurgeut sentiment is causing IN
creasing doubt whether the govern
meut will. after all, be able TO cope
promptly and successfully with the
movement.
The insurrection in the province OF
Pinar del Rio has spread across the
mountains to the north coast, and the
town of Cabanas is now in the hands
Of the insurgents, who are reported also
to have gone in the direction OF Bahia
Honda. The latter place is the site OF
one Of the United States naval sta
tions. but it has not vet been occupied
for that purpose. Cabanas is about %
miles west-southwest of Havana, and 10
miles by high road from Mariel. The
district is rich and grows sugar. It's
popuIation in 1899 was about 1000.
Pine Guerra again is threatening the
railroad officials. The latter have be-
gun the construction of an armored
train to precede troop trains IN the
threatened region. No encounters were
reported Wednesday in Havana prov
ince. though small bands are numerous.
In Matanzas province there has been
no fighting. and in Santa Clara the IN
surgents evidently are avoiding an ac-

.DUMMERST0N MAN LOST
FRANK JOHNSON HAS NOT BEEN
SEEN SINCE SUNDAY.
Posse Of Men Are Searching the Woods
for Him This Morning-Possible
That He May Have Started for Home
Of His Son in Michigan.

A posse of searchers under the direc'
tion OF the Dummerston selectmen are
securing the woods Of that town today
in search Of Frank A. johnson, who
disappeared from his home on the Put
ney road Sunday or Monday and has
not been seen or heard Of since that
time. Mr.. johnson 5 home is situated
lust beyond Crosby's pond, about three
miles north Of Brattleboro. Mrs. Mel
vina Bemis, sister.in-law, has been
living with him but for the past two
weeks she has been Ill and under the
care of q trained nurse. IL Is thought
by Mrs. Bemis and the nurse that Mr..
johnson left the house late Sunday
night but nothing was thought Of the
matter until about noon Monday when
he failed TO put in an appearance
Since that time inquiries have been
made in all directions but as yet moth
ing has been found TO throw any light
on the mystery.
Mr.. johnson is about 6j years old and
had been in poor health of late. He IS
OF dark complexion and when last seen
wore a short black beard. There had
been some talk Of his going to the vet
erans home at Bennington but inquiry
there brought out the information that
he had not put in an appearance. Nei.
ther has he been seen az the home OF
bis daughter in Putney. Some people
are inclined to believe that Mr.. John
son has started for the home of his son
in Michigan for the reason that his
pension papers and sum of money
are missing from the house. Others
think that he may have wandered into
the woods and been taken ILL., 1t IS
said that Mr.. johnson took a revolver
with him when he disappeared and this
gives grounds for the belief in some
quarters that he may have committed
suiei1p.

Voting a Split Ticket.

Sample ballots for the coming cleo
tion have been posted and all who de-
sire can inspect them at the town hall
or the voting places. As all parties ex-
pect more or less independent voting
this year. word about voting a split
ticket may not be amiss. In order to
vote for part Of the candidates on one
ticket and for others on another ticket,
the voter should mark cross at the
right in the little square space in the
margin opposite to the candidate S
name. and the large square at the top
of each ticket should be left blank. All
voters who propose to split their bal
lots should bear this in mind and make
sure they understand it before going
into the booths.
