severed diplomatic relations with
Cuba, it was learned officially today
after the foreign Office had confirmed
the report. The Mexican charge at
Havana and the Cuban minister here
have been recalled. These recalls and
the suspension for an indefinite time
of sending new representative, it
is explained officially, are due to the
fact that because of the war Cuba has
been obliged to dictate measures that
affect the interests of Mexico in many
instances. For this reason it is de-
clared that making the friendlH repre-
sensations that Mexico would be fore
ed to make to the Cuban government
would be useless and would restrict
the liberty of action of friendly ma
ton which is now in an afflicted situa-
ton.

Travel Talk at
Episcopal Church
Tomorrow Eve'g
DIR. RICHARDSON WILL TAKE
HIS HEARERS FROM ISLAND
OF MADEIRA TO SPAIN

The first of a series of travel lee
lures was made last Sunday night at
the Episcopal church by Rev. w. c.
Richardson and was thoroughly enjoy
ed by all who heard it.
The lecturer left, or perhaps it would
be better to say stopped, on the island
of Madeira. The language spoken
there is Portuguese, so we feel safe to
say they will be glad to embark for
Spain, for one week on this beautiful
spot will suffice for most people who
cannot speak anything but United
States, and they will all make rush
for the gang plank of the ship.
We advise you to be at the Episco-
pal church Sunday night to witness
this embarkation, and you will be TAX
en- on board, even though you have NO
ticket, for this is an American party
and no one is to be .left at Madeira.
Besides you will enjoy travelling
through Spain with these delightful
Americans, and when they near the
WI zone if you have yellow streak
you can desert. But we are betting you
will stick to. the trip to its finish if
you once join the crowd.
Come on Sunday night and try it
once anyway.

Your Last Chance !:
Don't Let it Slip J.
Until Years Alter the War

Arthur L. Johnson, without question.
the largest dealer in Pinellas county,
in clothing for men and boys, con-
Quoting two large stores, one in Tar
pom Springs and one in st. Peters,
burg, has made special sales mean
something in this county, for when hee
makes a special sale he marks his
prices down, and anyone who knows
the standard prices of the Standard
goods he carries realizes that these
sales offer great opportunities to save
money.
Mr.. Johnson started one of these big
sales on Friday, May 10, and it has
been phenomenal success, making II
necessary to replenish his stock tn
meet the big demand. He sent up 8
big lot of goods from his st. Peters
burg house and has decided to contip-
ue the sale through today and Nor
day, after which these goods can be
purchased only at the regular prices
which are always as low as consistent
with good business.
When we advise you to take advan-
tage Of today and Monday to fit your
self out, we are speaking from ex-
.perience, for we are more than pleas
ed with the price and quality Of a litT
tie bill of goods we purchased. We
made a good saving on pair Of shoes
two pairs Of trousers, half dozea
suits of Olos. We took advantage OF
this sale to save money and you have
the same opportunity today and Mon

Just think of the spirit of patriotism
which stirs the hearts of our people.
Two thousand dollars was asked for
and at first many of us felt skeptical
of raising it. The great need was
made known to our people and purses
popped out like popcorn. The pile of
money mounted higher and higher UNI
til this morning there was $28.25
above the $4,000 in the till, and three
more days to go-Saturday, Sunday
and Monday.
The big rummage sale starting this
afternoon may raise one thousand dol
lars, for there is the largest and best
selected stock of everything but RUB
BISH you ever saw--a regular me-
nagerie of live things besides all kinds
of staple and fancy groceries and
farm produce, to say nothing of the
handsome articles of silver plate and
jewelry and clothing everything for
everybody. So don't forget to come
down this evening and get what you
want-it's there something for every
one.
Those dear little Junior Red Cross
workers are like flock of honey bees
today pinning tiny tags on every one
and receiving contributions. Every
body responds to the children; hard
indeed would be the heart that refused
them.
Every one has responded nobly and
many deserve special mention for sex
traordinary liberality, in fact so many
that time and space forbid our nam
| ing them, and then we do not know
every one; but little Mary Belcher
certainly does. She called at The
Leader office this morning all dolled
up in miniature Red Cross nurse cos
tune, and Old Nick himself would
1 have contributed to her. She had
nickles, dimes, quarters, halves, and
dollars IN, her little box, and said she
would sell you tag for any amount
you wanted to give. We feel happier
and better after the visit of this little
cherub and doubt not that others feel
the same.
There were other tiny tots, cute as
could be lots of them sweet enough
to fool honey bee, but we think lit
tie Mary was the tiniest unaccompa-
MED worker on the job.
Business is the order of the day, so
we put aside the sentiment and repeat
the stirring words of Mr.. A. p. Beck
EFT, chairman of this drive, who says:
1--WE have all done excellently, but
the need is great; let us do more"

Washington, May 25.-Mexico's sud-

possibly may foreshadow a break of

from it's own sources that the Mexican
diplomatic representative at Havana
has been withdrawn by Mexico, but
no explanation was given in the dis
patches. Further advices are expect
