LEADER OF CUBAN
REVOLT CAPTURED
Havana Reioices oyer Collapse
of Revolution After Sharp
Fighting.

HAVANA, March s.-The revolution
in Cuba is apparently ended. Capture
of ex-President Jose Miguel Gomez
and his entire staff, leaders of the in
surrectos, was expected today, to be
followed by sentence of death of these
conspirators.
At the same time, there were re-
ports current here today that the
remnants of the rebels in Camaguey
had been forced to capitulate.
Havana gave itself over to jubilation
today at the coup. All last night the
city rang with gayety, celebrating the
governments victory in the battle by
which Gomez was captured. officially
stated to have been one OF the biggest
in the history OF Cuba
General Gomez and his whole staff
OF 300 men were taken prisoner by
government forces" the official an
nounceHent declared,
more than 5000 men participated
in the combat. Full details are lack
ing, but 1t is known that besides pris-
oners, the rebels lost a hundred killed
and many wounded. Among the pris-
oners are Gomez's son and son-in-law.
"All the prisoners vile be tried be-
fore proper tribunals" ..
The general belief is that the revo-
lutionary movement must now col
lapse utterly.
The revolt had its inception in a
bitter political quarrel between Presi-
dent Menocal and the Liberal leader
and former president. Postponed cleo
tions in Santa Clara province famed
the flame Of bitterness between the
two parties. The poll resulted in a
comfortable majority for President
Menocal. Then the flames of insur-
rection broke out in full sway.

Question Of Morale Important.

Whether reports coming out OF Germany at
present may be depended on as a, basis for opin-
ion is OF exceeding Importance at this juncture-
1t Is reasonably certain that some foundation. ex-
lists for the tales OF popular demonstrations Of
revolt against the military rule OF the empire.
This feeling is indicative Of the end, il Of any
thing, of the great war. Discomfort among the
workers at home, on whose activity SO much de-
ponds for the success OF the armies in the field,
is sign of disintegration that portends the ulti-
mate dissolution Of the whole campaign On the
morale OF the nation, as much as of the army it
self, hangs the fate OF the country.
At the outset the German nation was uni
fed for the struggle as no nation ever was be-
fore. Years OF training and PREPARATION Of con-
slant victory in wars and unprecedented progress
in arts and industry had cemented the people SOL
idly together and the first magnificent sweep of the
gray-green wave across Belgium and Flanders
and France was the irresistible movement Of the
conquering German spirit. When this drive had
spent its force and was turned back on itself at
the battle OF Marine the end was made clear, al
though its time could not be prophesied with ac-
curacy. Still the mastery remained with the. Ger
mans and for many months they held the moral
advantage against the Allies, who made desper-
ate resistance. This condition has changed and
the prestige of attack has passed over to the
Allies. .......5es
Germany is now fighting a defensive war.
Whatever notion Of conquest may have animated
the leaders at the outset has given way to plans
for holding out until the German empire may be
made secure. With this turn in the fortunes Of bat
tie comes the more serious effect OF weakened
morale. Even the slightest of foundation for
rumors now heard OF the unrest in the empire is
proof of the erumbing of the unity that made
Germany so formidable at the outset.

Young Man, the Farm Needs You!

Many thousands of young men who. will not
be called upon for duty in the army are anxious
to help wherever they can be OF most service in
the present crisis. To these the farms OF Amer
lea offer opportunity Of rare importance.
Never in all our history has such call been
made to the farmers Of America as now On them
depends the future. Many months ago great
statesman said the decisive battle of the present
war would be fought in the wheat fields. And on
the wheat fields OF America falls the greatest OF
responsibility
II our farms are to yield as is expected of them
men must be had to do the needed work. The
government is busy just now gathering data pre-
liminary to general survey of the country to de-
termine the number OF men available for farm
work. particularly for the harvest time, which will
commence about the LIST OF June and continue
drought until late in the fall.
Young men in schools, clerks in city Offices
who are planning for summer vacations and others
who are eager to serve are available for this work
II is service as essential and as worthy as any in
warfare. The call from the farms is as clear as
the call from the camps. Will the young men
heed it2

People and Events

Speaking about patriotic sacrifice, there is no
doubt of the quality pervading the Dunwoodie
