not thrown open to the morning air,
the shutters being closed.
Something about the atmosphere Of
the building caused Holton to alight
from his horse at bend in the drive.
Throwing the reins about the branch
of tree, he made his way through the
underbrush, until looking through the
foliage he could see the front Of the
house.
Here he waited. Why he knew not.
What had come over him?- Something
inside was dampening the ardor with
which he had set out on this important
journey, and placing his spirits under
a pail of utterly unreasonable, fore

of dread, settled upon him, and try as

been leading your country to the edge
of destruction.
Walt, gentlemen. allow me to fin-

can prove to you. and I can do it
right now, that this man, Cesnola. was
the man who led General Castillo into
that ambush at Matamoras. a month

this man who conducted Garcia into
a trap at Mariel last year. Only be

you should wish to know concerning
him from Washington by the last
dispatch-boat. His dossier Is very
complete. He is spy! l will prove 1t.
The mercurial men in front Of Hol-
ton turned from him to Cesnola with
frowning faces. The rapid shutting
OF events had bewildered them. They
knew not what to do.
Miss La Tossa, who had stood by
FlOlton throughout, clinging to his
sleeve as though to protect him from
Der countrymen, now raised her head
to speak when. suddenly. Cesnola lift
ed something to his lips, and a whistle
resOunded above the confusion.
Silently more than one-half of those
present disengaged themselves from
the crowd of officers. and the next in
stnnt Holton, Miss La Tossa. and per
haps thirty of the Cubans, were sur.
rundcd by ring Of scowling men
with revolvers leveled ominously.
Not word was spoken.
Then from Cesnola there came
laughter.
that a fusillade of shots here would
be the signal for the attack on the
Americans. In thirty seconds that
fusillade will be heard, and the bullets
will 60 where you are standing. Those
who wish to engage in the attack upon

them"
For a moment there was silence.
Cesnola took out his watch. One Gu
ban left Holton's side and joined the
circle, two followed him. then three,
then six. Finally Holton and the girl
stood alone.
Cesnola put his watch in his pocket
oned to two men.
Take her away from this man. He
must stand alone" he said.

marked the 0emean0r OF all concerned.
After long discussion General To-
raj and his officers turned and rode to-
ward the city, and the American gen.
erals returned to their iines The sur
render of Santiago was assured.
The men were jubilant. but many
were beginning to succumb to the ply
steal effects of their life in the wet
trenches.
On the 18th Of July, General Shat
ter, his staff, brigade commander, and
goodly body of troops left the
trenches and. with bands playing and
flags flying. marched up the trail lead
ing into Santiago, where the surren-
der took place before the two armies.
Then the march continued into the
city.
The Spanish soldiers, some twenty
two thousand men (Holton mad under
estimated their number), were to be
shipped to Spain, and nothing re-
mained to be done but to assume the
reins Of military government and set
things in order. One Of the first acts
of the Americans was to release po-
AASASoi PAAooASAo Alou
and then as evening fell the lights
were lighted; the bands played in the
patio Of the palace, the Venus restau-
rant overfiowed with American Off
GERS, the streets were crowded with
men, women and children.
Meanwhile what were the Cubans
doing? Many of them had their homes
in Santiago and naturally they were
anxious to return to them, and had
fully expected to do SO. Now by Off
cial mandate Of the Americans they
were barred from the gates.
Holton knew enough of the fiery
temper of these men to realize that
Garcia and the other commanding Of
ficers must sway great authority over
their soldiers If they were to hold
them in leash under such a situation
as this.
He, Of course, had no fears that
outbreak, but at the same time II one
occurred it would involve a complica-
ton not to be desired.
That the Cubans In the camps Of
Garcia and Castillo were openly talk
ing Of an uprising was known to every
one, and not even Garcia's assurances
that he could keep them in hand
quieted the fears Of the more thought
full among the officers. Yet there was
no inclination to allow them to enter
the city, the fear that they would turn
loose upon the unarmed Spaniards
still being potent.
In the absence Of direct orders, Hol-
ton hardly knew what to do. His anx-
iety as to the outcome Of the present
predicament he kept to himself. not
wishing to fill Washington with vague
and perhaps causeless alarms.
Late on the morning Of the day fol-
lowing the surrender he mounted q
horse loaned him by a cavalry officer
and set out once more along the San
ia Ines highway for the La Tossa es-
tate.
Soon he reached the lodge and gate
which he had entered some nights be-
fore. Up the road he cantered, and
at length turned into the driveway

time, live in luxury all the time, have a three
months vacation on full pay, every year, keep
at least three house servants, and draw $500
year extra for every baby his wife has?
Upon what theory of Christianity or com
mon sense are We Baptists asked to maintain
hundreds and thousands Of Schools colleges
and hospitals, in China, Japan and India,
when right here at home we see the Perry
Rainey College sink under a load of debt, and
the Bessie Tiff founder in distress?
1t wrings my heart to read the letters from
our boys and girls, acho pant for q chance IN
life, and eagerly seek help t0aOa7d an educa-
tion-and then to read how such grand old
Baptist as Hiram Ramey, had to see his col
lege pass out of Baptist hands.
1t saddens me to think of all the years Of
struggle that the good men and women at
Forsyth have spent trying to keep the Bessie
Tiff alive.
Then, I turn to the magazines and books
that are dishonesty paid for out of mission
collections, and gaze on the pictures of the
magnificent kndergartens, high schools and
colleges that we Baptlsts have built for the
children of the Chinese, the japanese, the
Koreans, and the Hindoos; and my brain
almost reels with bewilderment.
In the name of God What does all this
mean?
Are our preachers blind?
Can't they see the dire needs Of our own
children?
Can't they see the bare poverty Of our
people?
Don't they know that the Governments of
China and Japan have far better system Of
free public schools than we, and that every
child IN those foreign countries can get q free
education?
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY TRUE.
Why, then, are we squanderlng twenty mil
lion dollars, every gear, teaching school In
China, feeding the hungry in Japan, nursing
the sick in India?
We have one thousand hospitals in the for
eign field, built and maintained at the expense
of the churches Of this country.
How many hospitals are maintained IN this
country, by our churches!
How many doctors and dentists are en-
ployed by the Home Mission Boards?
How many surgeons and trained nurses are
attached to the PASTORAL staff?
How much free medicine, and food and
clothing, is your pastor authorized to use in
his work among the deserving poor?
How many agricultural stations are main
tanned by our churches in this country to teach
oar boys the better methods of farming?
How many of our churches have print
shops, carpenter shops, chronological insti-
tutes, and schools for sewing, cooking and
housekeeping for the training of oar boys
and girls?
Is there kindergarten attached to each Of
our home churches, in which benevolent men
and tender-hearted women can care for the
little waits of our towns, our cities, and the
country side?
Is there hospital to which your big-souled
minister can take the destitute sick, and have
them humanely doctored and nursed?

losing the people.
And why? Because the services too often

The Murdefous Spirit OF The
Roman Catholic Papers.


Roman Catholic Papers.
IT is part of my business to keep tab on all
the Romanlst papers and magazines, for
it is important that The Jeffersonian know
what those ot-kissing traitors are up to-
Never In my life have I seen any papers
and magazines SO full of deadly and vituper-
alive rancor against their opponents.
The intolerant hatred they manifest, is
absolutel y naurderOus.
No matter how high a Protestant, or nom
Catholic, may stand, if he dares to open his
mouth against Italian popery, these Amer-
cans who are the foreigners sworn subjects,
pour out upon him the vile bilge-water Of
yenomous abuse and misrepresentation.
For instance, there is Priest John Noll, the
editor of Oar Sunday Visitor.
That man seems incapable of telling the
truth about anything, where his foreign
church is concerned.
In his latest ISSUE he spills scurrility and
lies all over the Rev. DR.. Randolph McKim,
of Washington City.
DR.. McKim is one of the finest Protestants
IN the Union, and his Virginia ancestry natu-
rally lncllnes him to the highest standard of
patriotism.
But the blood Of the Randolphs and the
Jeffersons is no protection whatever to Dr.
the foreign church upon our politics, and to
the Romanist foot-kissers, he is a marked
man.
They abuse DR.. McKim as coarsely, and as
unscrupulously, as they abuse John Lind,
John Hay, General Miles and myself.
This fellow Noll says that Dr.. McXim
opposed the closing of the mails ito filthy
papers,"
The statement of course. is a malicious
fazSeh0Od.
The law already excludes "flthy papers"
from the mails, and John Noll knows it.
What the Knights of Columbus and the
Jesults were trying to do, when Dr. McKim
bravely combatted them, was to close the mails
to every book, magazine, paper picture or
letter that REFLECTED on the foreign church
of the Italian Pope.
These laws which these Romanists want,
and which DR.. McKim opposed, would have
outlaeced the a0h0Zo mass Of Protestant Gte1u-
TIRE
If these Romanists cared two straws for
morality, they would compel their priests to
marry.
If morality was what they desired to pre-
serve, they would burn the confessional boxes,
and destroy the theological works of Peter
Dens and Alfonsus Liguori.
If morality was what they cared for, thew
would not lock up $4,000 healthy young
women and hand the key to the unmarried
young priests
If they cared rap for morality, they would

magazines, and would close the mails to such
llcentious novels as those of the Catholic,
D'Annunzio.
If they cared anything about "scurrility,"

Why Are the Church People So
Unwilling 10 Learn the Facts
About Foreign Missions?

Il Itu OHIlSClan 1nQeX is making It's periodic
howl for more money for the Boards, the
Missionaries, and the 100000 "Converts" who
have to be paid to stay Converted"
Why doesn't the Index tell it's readers the
achole truth, about the present methods of the
Boards and the Missionaries!
IT DOESN'T DARE TO.
The Index knows quite well that IL our
people really knew what is going on, they
would never give another dollar, until the
whole system was put back on Scriptural
basis.
An Alabama friend wrote me, few days
ago, saying, that Baptist preacher denied
that our Baptist Missionaries are paid 500.
for each child born into their homes
If ignorance Of that kind prevails among
the preachers, how can you wonder that the
laymen are in the dark?
Tbs Baptist preacher is like most of the
others, l suppose; and he is the collecting
agent for the system, aot5ch he himself does
not understands
Regularly, no doubt, he breaches "a mis-
sonary sermon" and drools out the dreary
old drivel about the heather who sits in dark
ness, and who is sure to go to hell, if you don't
hand out more ducats for the missionaries.
In the first place, the Bible distinctly
teaches that the heather who live good lives,
according to the light they have, do not go to
hell.
In the second place, the heather to whom
we send most OF our missionaries, and most
of our money, haze been hearing the Gospel
for at least fifty gears
What is it that the Boards really want $780,
100000 year for?
Doesn't your own common sense tell YOU
that twenty million dollars year, spent on
mission 2cOrh, for the last ten years, would
have sent the Gospel to every living creature?
With that prodlglous sum of taoo hundred
million dollars, used to support such devoted,
hard working missionaries as Judson and
Morrison and Livingston, they could have
reached every living creature, and given him
the same chance that Paul and Barnabas gave
him.
Don't yOu hnOo0 1t aC0uzd?
A million Judsons and Morrisons, and Lv
ingstons could have been kept in the foreign
field with the $2O0,OOO,O0O.
salary Of $500 a year, paid in Africa,
China, Korea, India and Japan, is equal to
ST 900 paid and spent In this country.
1t the missionaries were not SO greedy
about salaries and luxuries, 5000 year would
satisfy them.
That's more than Paul got, more than Peter
got, more than Judson got, more than Wesley
got, more than Livingston got.
A million missionaries, whose hearts were
In their work, and who went about from place
to place, preaching Christ, as Christ himself
did and as he commanded the seventy to do
could have literally carried out the command
to preach the Gospel to every nation and
every living creature.
Why, then, are they eternally bowling about
the heather who have never heard the Gospel?
How are the remote heather ever to hear
the Word, if we keep on pampering the mis-
slonaries by planting them in palaces, sur
rounding them with luxuries, state feeding
them, generation after generation, at Canton,
