RUM0R SAYS BLOOD
MAY FLOW IN CUBA
Reactionaries in New York Said to be Planning In
surrection-Governor Magoon and Other Island Au-
thorities Place Little Confidence in the Reports
which are Flooding Havana.

Havana, June 16.-Agents of the
Ireactionary faction here in politics
stationed in New York, are believed
to be planning an insurrection in
Cuba.
Recent developments have led Cub
Ian leaders here to thing that some
lsuch movement has been started.
Dispatches to the newspapers here
from New York and from Mexico
declare that a Cub1n revolution IL
planned Those who profess a be-
| lief in the truth of these state
ments point to the recent seizure of
ammunition on vessel in New York
harbor, bound for Cuba, as evidence
Of the extent to which plans for
bloodshed on the island have been
carried.
Governor AIlgoon Is inclined to
place little credence in the reports of
n coming uprising. However, the ru-
mors have caused great deal of ex-
element among the people. Gov
|ernor Magoon says that reports from
III quarters of the Island show that

Cuban political leaders say they

| They have no idea 10 what ex-
itent the plans have been carried, but
say that they are convinced that no
general insurrection could be engi-
neered. They declare that the people
would have little sympathy with any
movement promising to plung the ISL
and into bloody internal war.
| While It is admitted that few OF
the people are not satisfied with the
lpresent administration OF the affairs
jof the island, 1t Is declared that they
are mostly persons with axes 10
grind who, having sought political
or other preferment and failing, have
made every effort to hamper the
government. Cuban men OF affairs
declare that the great mass of the
people on the island are satisfied with
lpresent conditions and that the plot
ters in New York will have trouble
making any progress here with their
movement.
I The authorities here attlch little
to the seizure OF the am
,munition on board the steamer In

Not in this same connection, but

today that Governor Mngoon has de-

ing the construction of waterworks

BILLY KING, THIRD SACKER,

checks.
Both Fox and King will probably

have little difficulty locating else
where. Had It not been for the bad
slump Oh the Diggers 1t is probable
that neither would have been re-
leased. Al this time of the year the
manager does not feel that he can
wait and he thinks that the condl-
tion of the team demands imme-
diate action. Unless there Is de-
cided reversal of form there will
be other changes on the club.
The fans have every confidence
in O'Day and they are certain that
he WILL get the club going good
again and land 1t back in first
place.

that is another thing. Here you can
forget the stocks and the Office and

and peace. Here it is possible that
some Of you have Tom and Harry and
Bessie about your knees. There is no
better way to reconstitute the family.

ENGLISH JOCKEY CLUB.
Most Autocratic Governing Body In
the World Of Sport

Most Autocratic Governing Body In
the World Of Sport.
A writer in Fry's Magazine explains
the origin and development of the
Jockey club, the most powerful and
autocratic governing body that is to be
found in the whole world of sport. The
Jockey club has an enormous power
and is feared and respected by all who
are subseryient to it, and yet nobody
ever elected it or gave it it's authority.
But it is the ideal governing body for
racing. One of its most notable
achievements was the virtual warn
ing of" Newmarket heath, though not
in so many words, of Prince of
Wales, he who was afterward George
w.:
Ellis jockey, Sam Chifney the elder.
was accused of riding the horse Es-
cape unfairly, and the Jockey club de-
manded that he should be expelled
from the turf. But the prince believed
that the accusation against Chifney
was entirely wrong and unjust, and he
determined to stand by him at any
cost. Thereupon the three stewards
Of the club who were then in Office
were called upon to. take action, and
Sir Charles Bunbury, on behalf OF
them, intimated to his royal highness
that if he retained Chffney in his serv-
Ice no gentleman could or would run
against him. .
Greatly incensed, he withdrew from
! the turf altogether and did not re-
sumo his patronage Of it until nine
years later

The Pathetic Sequel TO a Tragedy OF
the Alps.
Many years ago read pathetic
story, which is constantly recalled to
mind as the duties Of this compilation
compel me to read the records Of past
years and reperuse the long closed let
tiers of my beloved and live over again
the happy days when we were all in
all to each other. / do not remember
all the details of the incident which so
impressed me, but the chief facts were
these:
A married couple were crossing one
of the great glaciers of the Alpine re-
gions when a fatal accident occurred.
The husband fell down one Of the huge
crevasses which abound on all glaciers.
The rope broke, and the depth of the
chasm was so great that no help could
be rendered, nor could the body be re-
covered. Over the wife's anguish at
her loss we must draw the veil Of ST.
lence. Forty years afterward saw her.
with the guide who had accompanied
them at the time of the accident, stay
ing at the nearest hotel at the foot of
the glacier, waiting for the sea of ice
to give up its dead, for by the well
known law of glacier progression the
form of her long lost husband might
be expected to appear, expelled from
the mouth of the torrent about that
date. Patiently and with unfailing
constancy they watched and waited,
and their hopes were at last rewarded.
One day the body was released from
its prison in the ice, and the wife
looked again on the features of him
who had been so long parted from her.
But the pathos of the story lay in the
fact that she was then an old woman,
while the newly rescued body was that
Of quite young and robust man, so
faithfully had the crystal casket pre-
served the jewel which it held so long.
The forty years had left no wrinkles
on that marble brow. Times wither-
ing fingers could not touch him in that
tomb, and so for a few brief moments
the aged lady saw the husband of her
youth as he was in the days which
were gone forever.-C. II. Surgeons
