 From his own lips heard his story. He told me he had been married seven times. He had never committed big amy and he had never divorced one of his wives. Three of his wives, he said. had been sealed to him &C., cording to the custom in slavery times. These marriages. you will recall were legalfzed after the war. The other four wives. he said. he married regularly under the law. I asked him:
 How many children have you?
 He replied. forty-nine.'

New York. July 2o-Cable advices from Havana, Cuba. announce the death of Sonora Juana Quesada. the Cuban Joan of Arc. at the age of 70 years.
 Sonora Quesada was the best known women in the island. She came of good family in Camaguey. but despite the comforts and luxury which her cir cumstances gave her.. she chose to aid her countrymen in the field in the ten years war against Spain. Sonora Quesada was only one of many amazons who yielded 8 matchete in the struggle. but her bravery and standing of her family made her the best known.
 She served throughout that long. hard campaign under the command of General Maximo Gomez. Again in the revolution against Spain that began in

For several summers before Cuba attained her independence Senora spent the season at Manhattan Beach. She was old and gray haired and her gentle manner and evident refinement seemed hardly consistent with her repu- tation az the Cuban Joan of Arc.
 Patrick Sarsfield Gilmore, who in those days conducted the twenty second regiment band at Manhattan Beach, often publicly honored the woman patriot. Whenever Sonora Quesada was in the audience in the ampitheatre the band would play the "Hymno Bya- mess." which since has become the Cuban national hymn.

GOVERNOR SPOKE.
Madk Reference to Montgomery Inci-
 dent in Troy Address.

Troy. July 20.-(Special. )-The Pike County Sunday School Convention held its opening meeting this morning at g o'clock in the First Baptist Church.
 The chairman. Sidney H. -Blan. edi- tor of The Troy Messenger. called the convention to order and the welcome address was made by Joel D. Murphree. Superintendent of the Sunday School ot the First Baptist Church.
 The presidents annual address. the secretary's report and a short talk by Judge Joseph Carthel brought the pro- gram to the chief feature of the morn- ing, the address by Hon. B. B. Conner, Governor.
 MT. Elan, in introducing the speak sr. said he had the pleasure in presenting him upon this occasion not as the chief executive of the State, but as one of her chief Sunday School workers. A great crowd had gathered to hear the Governor speak, and he impressed his hearers with the earnestness of his convictions upon bis chosen subject. '"The Educational JSrce of the Sunday School"
 The morning was hot and the Gov ernor's collar wilted but not for mo- ment did his spirits dampen. nor did he abate the force and energy of his speech.
 A good humored reference was made to the warm time at little meeting at which he spoke in Montgomery re- gently upon which MT. Elan said: we are not going to treat you that way here. Governor.
 With a smile and compliment to the good people of Pike. the Governor plunged into his address, which he made rich with illustrations from all parts of the Bible.
 A goodly number of Pike County ia = mers were sprinkled through the crowd and to them the Governor paid his respects by couching many of his fig ures and illustrations in the langua ge of the soil and agriculture. At the close of his speech J. S. Carroll made motion to the effect that a rising vote of thangs be accorded Governor Conner for his magnificent effort on be- half of the convention. It was sec- onded and carried and the Governor expressed his appreciation in few | well chosen sentences.
 The sessions of the convention will continue through Sunday.
 | Last evening at the city armory. the | largest and best german of the season was given in honor of Miss Mary Met calfe and Miss Rebecca Rutledge of Montgomery. The hall was beautifully decorated in evergreen. and inviting re- | treatments were served. Miss Metcalfe and Miss Rutledge. both excellent danc- CTS. and charming young ladies. are making quite a hit in Troy society.
