Cuban Character.

ameflcans nave gained q
wrong impression Of the Cub
an character, said Max J
Baehr. United States consul at
Cienfugos, Cuba, to a Wash
lngton Post reporter. at IS u
mistake to class Cubans with
Central Americans as lovers OF
strife and as constantly prone
to insurrection. [ as you know,
am stationed in the hot-bed of
recent revolutionary uprisings
in the island, and the troubles
have been due to the feeling on
the part Of the natives that
they were not to receive their
political rights and not to an
lnsurrectlonary spirit.
"On the whole, there is nc
better character to be found
anywhere than that of the Gu
ban. The majority Of the in
habitants Of the country are
naturally law-abiding, peace
loving people, of sweet dispo-
sitions, and it is only in the
cities that you find the men
who have been contaminated
by politics and have become
bad citizens.
The Cubans are a temper
ate people, continued Mr.
Baehr. They do not drink in
toxicants, unless you call their
coffee Intoxicating, for they
make that very strong, and
drink it six, seven or eight
times a day, although, OF
course, not large cups at a
time.
The Cubans appeared to be
satisfied with the workings of
the new election law created
by Colonel Crowther. They
realize that by it they will get
their rights, and after the last
election they acquiesced quiet
|ly and seemed satisfied. |
think that was all that was
necessary for them to become
convinced that the law would
bring honest results
Therefore I believe these
interviews coming from Amer
leans who have an imperfect
knowledge of conditions, say
ing that there probably will be
another insurrection in Cuba,
are untrue and unjust. | shall
not attempt to predict the out
come of the approaching cleo.
ton. Both parties have nom
mated able men for president
and vice-president, and the
election may be quite close. In
either event | am confident
the result will be accepted by
the people in a law-abiding
spirit. The present admins
tration Of the island has been
exceedingly successful. Mr..
Magoon has shown great
shrewdness and tact and the
people are convinced they will
get their rights.

Bargains In Mummies.

While riding among the old
Egyptian tombs writes a tray
eler, the tourist is usually ap-
preached by the relic sharks.
You repel them. Then comes
a fellow who acts mysterious
ly, looks about suspiciously,
and talks to your cicerone in
an undertone. Your curiosity
is aroused. and you ask the
guide for information. It turns
out that the man lives in one
of the forsaken tombs nearby,
and that, several days ago, he
had found a hitherto undiscov-
cred grave with a mummy in
it, from which he had disjoint-
ed several members and taken
some trinkets found in the BAN
dages. The objects could be
seen at his lodging, if the trav-
eler would care to step that
way.
They are gruesome objects
that are displayed-a skull,
two hassds and two feet. There
are also some stone beads, a
small bronze statuette, a cou-
pie Of clay images. and the
mummy wrappings.
You pay. perhaps, little at
tentiou to the latter objects on
account of. the possibility Of
fraud, but yon are attracted by
the disjointed members that be-
longed to a man who walked
the earth centuries before the
Saviour appeared on it. True,
they are gruesome. but they
are just the things that are
most closely associated with the
name of Egypt than any other
relic could be. There is no
chance for fraud in an object
of this kind. They are natur-
al, shrunken and withered
members, black parchment
like, and YOU even detect a
spicy. odor which you connect
with the embalming process of
the ancient Egyptians. Surely
nothing more could be desired
in the way of proofs.
At last you have acquired a
real curiosity, and you cannot
help exhibiting your acqulsl-
tion on your return to the ho-
tel proprietor, without, how
ever, disclosing its source as
promised the poor Arab. The
hotel man smiles.
Have you been caught?"
he says. They are human
remains sure enough, but they
never grew on an ancient
Egyptian. They belonged to
some dark-skinned Arab who
was buried for a few years in
the dry sand Of the desert as
an investment. 1t is a common
trick; the condition Of the
ground and the absolutely dry
climate, which exclude decon-
position. and cause a natural
mummification. make the de-
ception possible

TRAIN LOAD OF PEOPLE
GO TO SEE GAS

All hopes and expectations were
| surpassed in the success of the ex-
| cursion to the new gas well of the
Dayton Gas and Oil Company, at Day
ton last night. The crowd was much
greater than anticipated in the fond.
est dreams of the promoters, and the
visitors were completely satisfied.
The train left Roswell a few min
utes after seven O'Clock with fifty or
sixty excursionists. At Dexter it
picked up forty or fifty more. At Ha-
german 120 tickets were sold, and at
Lake Arthur at least $50 persons
boarded the train. 1t was at Artesia,
however, that the biggest crowd join
ed the excursionists. The Artesia al
falfa festival had just closed with a
pyrotechnic display, and the minds
of the people were strung up to fire
works. They all wanted to see the
big we'll burn at night, and at least
250 Artesians took the trip, an extra
coach failing to accommodate the
half of them. The train was filled to
It's capacity when it left Artesia, all
seats and standing room, even to the
vestibules, being occupied.
The train was run to a point mile
south of Dayton, where about a dozen
aay-wagons, twice as many double

provided. This turnout of vehicles

Foraker Sent Money Back

Cincinnati, Sept. 19.-AS part OF

full deal for the ownership of the Ohio
State Journal at Columbus, the draft
for $4,000 mentioned in the John d.
Archbold letter made public at ST.
Louis last night by VIM. R. Hearst,
was received by Senator Foraker, and
on failure of the attempt to buy the
paper the draft was returned and the
incident forgotten, according to a
statement given to the Associated
Press by the senator today.
Foraker declared in his statement
that no one at any time ever paid
him cent, or even suggested such
payment, in consideration of any
thing he might do as a public man.
Senator Foraker said this afternoon
that he knew nothing of any suggest

Water sells at cents a gallon, and

THE CAMPAIGN

AS yet the campaign is largely in the realm
of the possible, but he would be an exceed
ingly rash prophet who would predict what
may happen or would dispute any prediction
of possibilities Our vote will depend upon
two factors. Of these the first and the
greater is the energy and devotion and spirit
of sacrifice with which the Prohibitionists
go into the campaign. The second will lie
in the combination of fortuitous circum-
stances, the nominations of the old parties,
the cleverness or lack of cleyerness with which
their bid for the moral vote may be made,
and the trend of that inexplicable thing
which we call public thinking.
AS we have said, the greater of these fac
tors-a matter of far greater Importance than

THE NEW VOLUME

With this number The National Pro-
hibitionist begins new volume, it having
been thought wise to continue the volume
number of The Defender which began with
the publication Of The Facts in Elmira, N.
Y, in 1895, although this paper is also, both
legally and Spiritually we may use the
term-the successor of The NeV Voice and
The Voice which began its career twenty
four years ago.
Upon such an occasion "reminiscences al
ways arise, and it would be a pleasant task
to speak now of the men whose patient indus
try, self-sacrifce and heroic devotion to duty,
through seemingly hopeless years, made this
paper and its work possible. They cannot be
enumerated one by one. Some of them have
gone where word neither of tongue nor pen
can reach them more But to them all, be-
ginning this new volume, to the able editors
whose work we strive to emulate and to the
loyal supporters who have given material
contributions, some of them with princely
hand and royal generosity, The National
Prohibitionist sends greeting today and the
promise that, so far as in us lies, we will
make this volume which we now open the
best in the history of Prohibition journalism.
