Impossible es para descrita la
sensation que en- aquellos momen-
tos supremos, experimentaba yo.
Pasabamos frente por frente de
mi pueblo natal, desde donde, in
dudablemente, mis- deudos esta-
rian viendo las luces del barco
donde yo viajaba, puesto que aque-
LA casa Sc yergue frente al mar.
Instantes de conmoci0n como
jamas sentf en- mi existencia! La
noche era va impenetrable. Las
luces aquellas iban esfumandose,
esfumandose.
No quise mirar mas hacia tie

blancas espumas, y por primera
vez en- mi vida, oesde cue llegue
La adolescencia, senti que la gar
ganta Sc me anudaba fuertemen-
te, y que mis- ojos Sc nublaban, y
que una sensaci6n de cobardia Sc
aduenaba de mi esplritu.
Locos deseos me dieron de arro-
jarme en- aquel espumoso torbelli-
no, Y morir tragado por las bra
Was aguas que en- derredor de la
nave Sc agitaban. = Pero la reac-
ci6n Y la serenidad no tardaron
en- venir en- mi auxilio. Entonces
me senti abochornado de haber
tenido aquellos momentos de de-
bilidad, de no haber tenido valor.
Y rapidamente un ardor inexpli-
cable circul6 por mis- venas. Un
volcan, era mi cabeza. En- mis-
ojos Sc incendio una llamarada,

ICE COMPANY
 SUIT CONTINUES

Frederick L. Mead of New Haven was given a rather grilling examina- tion in the Superior court today by Attorney Zacher of New Haven rep resenting the defense in the suit Of the Sprague Ice and Coal Co. of this city against John B. Kennedy of New Haven, in which payment for Ice val ued at about $3,6S0, with interest for five years amounting to about $1,2o0 is claimed by the Sprague Co.
 Mead is alleged to have represented to the Sprague Co. that he was au- thorized to buy ice in 1913 for John B. Kennedy, who in turn was mem Der of a volunteer Ice committee in New Haven. Ice to the value stated was shipped to New Haven. and re- ceived by Mead under a blanket or der to the railroad signed by Ken nery. Kennedy now denies making the deal, and claims not to have re- ceived ice except three car loads.
 Judge Greene interrupted the prog ress of the examination today to as- certain the exact claims of the par ties to the suit. Attorney John J. Cullinan for Sprague stated the claim as outlined above, and Attorney Zacher said Kennedy denied respon- sibihty for the ice received avove the three carloads. The case is still in progress.

ss.OOO. 900 FOR PALESTINE.
Setting Up Jewish Commonwealth Under TFusteeship of Great Britain Acting for League Of Nations.

Build the Jewish Homeland Nowl' Is the slogan of the zionists in the campaign Just launched to raise $3,0OO.000 for the work which the organization plane to do in Pales- tine during the current year. This slogan, they believe, will convey to the minds of the people the fact that the dream and hope of the Jewish people during the past two thousand years, a Jewish Commonwealth, is being fulfilled even before their very eyes.
 The Allies, with the approval of President Wilson. lreve pledged them selves that Palestine will be returned to the Jewish people, and the Zion ist Organization has every reason to be confident that the Peace Confer ence will ~~nction the establishment of the Jewish Commonwealth under the trusteeship of Great Britain, act ing for the League of Nations
 The preliminary steps have already been taken. The Zionist Administra- tive Commission, the first Jewish government of Palestine In 2,00c years. has established friendly rela- tions with the Arabian Kingdom ot the Hedjaz, and with Armenia, the neighbors of Palestine; the rudiments of Jewish government have been created.

Experts in every branch of human endeavor are being mobilized, and plans are being per fected for the regulation of the mass-immigration into the land, which will set in as soon as peace is declared. It Is for these operations and thoir expansion that the Zionist Organization of America, with head quarters at 55 Fifth Avenue, New York City, Is asking for $3,000,000
