On Way From Brazil

Il short sojourn in this country, spent
mainly in New York, in 1896 he Joined
band of Cuban patriots then striv
ing to break away from the dominion
of Spain. When the revolution finally
got under way he took a commission
in the army Of Maxine Gomez and
fought throughout the short but vic
torious struggle He had obtained
the rank of colonel in the Cuban army
when independence was proclaimed
by the treaty Of Paris. Still young
man, whose martial pursuits had in
terfered with his studies, the future
diplomat entered the University OF
Havana and took the degree of doctor
Of laws. He had made his under
graduate studies in the University of
Naples before leaving his country.
Shortly after Cuban liberty had
been obtained, DR.. Ferrara married
Senorita Luisa Sanchez of Havana,
member of a well established and
aristocratic family of the island, and
she has been one of the important
hostesses of the Cuban capital since
then, and also during her husbands
service with the League Of Nations
in Geneva. Combining politics with
legal career, the new Amba ssador was
for a time secretary Of state of the
province of Santa Clara, and repre-
sented this part of the island in the
Cuban Congress for some years, at
the same time becoming professor of
law and jurisprudence in the Univer
sity of Havana.
Sonora Ferrara was partly educated
in New York City. and she speaks
English fiuently. Since her marriage
she has lived in many countries, and
is socially most accomplished. A mem

Europe. and as he is the repre-
sentative of the Morgan banking firm
in Havana, he and Sonora Ferrara
have been frequently entertained in
New York and on Long Island. After
relinquishing the editorship of Ell
Uera lido de Cuba, Col. Ferrara has de-
voted all his leisure from the law and
his political activities to a monthly
magazine which he founded some Is
years ago. La Reforma Social, which.
as it's name indicates, is published in
the interests of the several progress
sive movements of the Liberals. OF
broad vision, and with an intimate
knowledge of the needs of his adopted
country, the new Ambassador brings
a familiarity with forward movements
in this country to the solution of his
task. He and Sonora Ferrara have
been most hospitable to Americans in
wide acquaintance with prominent
people in every part Of the world. The
new Amba ssador has no children.
