CUBA ADVANCES IN
AGRICULTURE AND
IN Her MINNING


Havana, Cuba, Nov 26.-Cuba, the
pride of the Antilles, famous for the
remarkable beauty of it's landscape
and the tropical richness of this vegi
tation, is making wonderful strides in
providing modern amenities in it's cit,
les and towns, and particularly, in de-
Teloping its fine agricultural and min
eral resources. The United States
by example, by persuasion and by
forcefulnes during it's occupation OF
the island, set going transforms
ton which now seems, having over.
come the inertia of centuries, likely
to persist. While the Spanish beauty
of Havana has been left undisturbed,
its streets, narrow and broad, have
been paved or asphalted so that their
surface is invariably clean.
The same agency also endowed Ha-
vana with its noble esplanada or ma
rine drive, which from the end of
the Prada, and the low promintory
of La Punta, extends for three or
four miles along the seacoast, past
the pretty western suburbs.
The possibilities of the Cuban re-
public, as they become known, are
gradually attracting attention, and
men of wealth and influence are in
creasing in numbers making periodi-
cal visits, recognizing in it an ideal
place of resort, and rich and almost
irgin field for investment.
When the new roads, being con.
structed through the center of the
island, are completed, it will be pos
sible to motor under the most COM
Portable conditions from Mantua, the
extreme western point of the island
to the eastern limits of Santa Clara
province, a distance of 925 miles. In
Santiago de Cuba in Camquey, both
towns, much frequented by ,Ameri-
cans, the hotels rival those of Havana
and progressive spirit in municipal
affairs is evident everywhere.
The railroads are extending their
facilities in every direction, are meet
ing the demands of the increased
traffic and offering many induce
ments to new industries. The esti-
mated amount of sugar production
for this year is 100000. The cane
in nearly all the provinces shows a
decided gain, and there are a mum.
ber of estates on which the planting
has increased to a marked degree.
The iron-ore deposits in the pro-
vince of Santiago de Cuba, which
the Spanish-American Iron Company
is developing, is the most important
in the world, having been proved by
boring tests to contain 1,800,000,0O0
tons of iron ore, not considering the
amount contained in the older discov.
cries.
The recent discoveries of gold in
the same province are also interest
ing, one operating company alone
having produced nearly $4,000 q
month for the last year
All over the island, on the coast
and inland, in city and country, the
same spirit of intelligent progress is
manifested, and before many years
what with education and material
prosperity, the people of Cuba, will
be classed among the most content
ed in the world.

The Pratt Union copies from
the Greensburg Signal, what we
believe is a SANDER on Meade.
Our gentlemen here are known
as handsome, gallant and very
attractive to the ladies, but as
there is no man absent whose
whereabouts is not known, we do
not give the story credence.
There is another thing which
discredits the tale, that is that a
man residing in Meade could not
be tempted even by the smiles
of a woman to risk Punishment
from the county. The story as
told follows:

The Contribution Was
Too Small

One of the United States Sur
veyors who sectionized New
Mexico, writing in Forward, de-
scribes his attendance at ser
mon delivered to the scattered
eowmen and Indians of that sec
ton. A messenger arrived in
camp near night to announce
that some fifty miles away on
certain creek the following day
a sermon would be delivered
by a missionary.
The writer and one other with
four horse left by gray morning
and arrived in time for the SER
mon. They found a crowd of
cowboys, Indians and a few
women. A contribution was TAX
en- up at the end of the sermon,
in which the incident related
occurred. It is so characteris-
tic of the CoWmanS reverence tor
all that is or was truly good and
worthy of reverence, and his ut
ter contempt of all which is
little, mean and penurious, that
we give it in whole. There are
many yet living here who have
seen similar things illustrating
the traits mentioned.
One of the cowboys present
picked up his sombrero and
started round through the con
gregation. He had just got well
started when some one dropped
in a silver twenty-fve-cent
piece. The cowboy deacon look,

A Wheat Crop Which Could Only

Thos. Gray Register of Deeds

a crop of wheat, which is never
duplicated except in the wheat
belt of the southwest, and not
often here, if it ever has been out

on the same field he had a crop
of wheat just ready for the head
er, when a hail storm beat it in
to the earth. Tom at once COM
menced to list it in milo maize,
and raised good crop, which
he harvested. Cu1tivating the
maize 1eveled the ground and
later in the fall the wheat came
up, grew and f1ourished.
