Tho Enemies,

Apropos of the enmity, now happily
buried, that used to exist between
Minneapolis and st. Paul, Senator
Clapp said at dinner in the former
city:
Il remember an address on careless
building that I once heard in Mime
apolis.
"'Why,' said the speaker in the
course of this address, one inhabitant
Of st. Paul is killed by accident in the
streets every 4S hours

hall interrupted:

PRESSED HARD.
Coffee's Weight on Old Age.

When prominent men realize the In
furious effects of coffee and the change
in health that Postum can bring, they
are glad to lend their testimony for
the benefit of others.
A superintendent of public schools
in Southern state says: my moth.
or, since her early childhood, was an
inveterate coffee drinker, had been
troubled with her heart for number
OF years and complained of that weak
all over feeling and sick stomach.
Some time ago was making an of.
fetal visit to a distant part of the
country and took dinner with one of
the merchants Of the place. I noticed
a somewhat peculiar flavor of the COT.
fee, and asked him concerning 1t. He
replied that 1t was Postum. I was so
pleased with 1t that, after the meal was
over. bought package to carry
home with me, and had wife pre-.
pare some for the next meal; the
whole family liked it so we'll that we
discontinued coffee and used Postum
entirely.
II had really been at times very
anxious concerning my mothers con.
dition, but we noticed that after using
Postum for short time, she felt so
much better than she did prior to its
use. and had little trouble with her
heart and no sick stomach; that the
headaches were not so frequent, and
her general condition much improved
This continued until she was as well
and hearty as the rest of US.

Shrewd Scheme Stopped Run.

Many years ago. in consequence OF
a commercial panic. there was severe
run on bank in South Wales, and
the small farmers jostled each other
In crowds to draw out their money.
Things were rapidly going from bad
to worse, when the bank manager, in
q 1T Of desperation. suddenly be-
thought him of an expedient. By his
directions clerk, having heated some
sovereigns in frying-pan. paid them
over the counter to an anxious appli-
cant. why. they're quite hot!" said
the latter as he took them up. "Of
course" was the reply; what else
could you expect? They are only just
out of the mold. We are coming them
by hundreds as fast as we can"
Coming them!" thought the simple
agrlculturists; then there Is no fear
of the money running short!" With
this their confidence revived, the pam
ic abated, and the bank was enabled
to weather the storm.

The rebels who charged Weyler with wanton
cruelty seldom restrained themselves from accom-.
plishing deeds Of violence likely to terrorize the
few remaining supporters of the Spanish rule. To
quote Weyler: "
The insurgents did not return In any way the
conslderate treatment accorded to them by this
generous commander (Nartinez Campos) At the
beginning of the war Maxine Gomez showed him.
self very fair; but Maceo, as shall prove by au.

gent chiefs did not hesitate to kill with their own
weapons defenseless islanders, and Maxine Go.
mez In his Memories confesses to having shot
personally man he had sentenced to death a
deed which call willful murder And still that
individual presumes to call me assassin"
AS his authority for the foregoing statement
General Weyler not only quotes extracts from the
Cuban papers, but appends proclamation of
Maceo Gomezs lieutenant, to his bands.
Comrades in Arms: Destroy, destroy every
thing day and night; to blow up bridges, to derail
trains to burn up villages and sugar mills, to
annhilate Cuba is the only way to defeat our enc.
mics. We have not to account for conduct
to anyone. Diplomacy, public opinion and history
don't matter. 1t would be sheer insanity to seek
the laurels of the battlefield, to bear the fire Of
the enemys artillery and contribute to the glory
of the Spanish commanders The essential thing
is to convince Spain that Cuba will be but heap
of ruins. What compensation will she receive
then for the sacrifice entailed by the campaign?
We must burn and everything. 1t would be
folly to fight as though we were an European
army. Where rifles are of avail let dynamite
do the work. A. MACEO."
The only way to subdue such bloodthrsty, des
perate pirates was to adopt their own tactics The
insurgents of their admission, never gave
nor accepted battle, but harassed the regulars and
destroyed their of supply "Concentra-
ton seemed to be the only solution of the prob

PEELED to roam from one devastated V1i'aee
burnt down hamlet, they could not Dut su''o1'
to hunger and exhaustion.
Had Weyer been less brutally honest ne
would have omitted such a damaging admission.
Up to this day we have had books OF many
kinds dealing with the Cuban war; pamphlets
put forth by the insurgents and VIGOROUSLY unfair
to Spain; Spanish publications which m1srepre'
scented grossly the attitude of the United States;
articles in European newspapers almost unani-
mously censuring the Americans for roDDlng
Spain CT her colony.
Now, however, have the facts presented
almost without any comments and certainly with
out establishment by Spaniard who loves his
country and frankly detests the Americans.
Once or twice he registers a protest against
the senates decision concerning the recognition
of belligenercy the campaign of defamation
directed against him In American papers,
He complains that in March, 1896, when he
had the situation we'll under control, the senate
of the United States interfered most unfairly for
1t recognized the belligerency of the insurgents,
thereby giving them new courage.
This is less convincing than the majority OF
his arguments, for if we compare dates find
letters in which he admits his failure to stop the
progress of the instruction.
His gravest charge against the United States
is contained in the following paragraph, which
is too vague to be taken seriously as some
other statements of his:
"The United States were against everything
that would bring about termination of the war
American citizens held several millions worth OF
Cuban bonds, issued with the provision that the
island would pass under the domination of the
United States ten years after Cuba would have
separated herself from Spain. The Yankees saw
that with the pace set the much-longedfor indie
pendence Of Cuba and its corolary the annexa
ton thereof, was becoming a more and more re-
mote possibility. But there was 20 reason why
the peninsula should have robbed all the eossip
which originated in America"
But on the whole the picture his letters and
reports, as well as the letters of Martinez Cam
pos ne publishes, present to eyes of Cuba In
the years preceding the Maine incident would
have justified any nation, near or remote in inter
venng for the sake of humanity; population

bloody war which could only lead to an cphem

dreary waste for years to come: the rights OF
foreign land owners and investors trampled IN

Spain did not lose Cuba as a consequence Of
the war with the United States; by the very ad
mission of SPANS military representatives in thai
