DEFENSE LESS ONES SLAIN.

l‘he Quixotic Captain General to Take
the Field Again—Senor de Arlnas-
Cardenas’ Futile Efforts In Be-
half of Cuban Autonomy.

' KEY WEST, Nov. BIZ—Passengers from
Havana 'report that General Weyler’s re
turn to Havana was made without demon-
stration on the part of the populace, but
was cold and bitter.

The report of Serafin Sanchez’s death
Was denied.

The rebels have captm» the town of
Las Tunas, in Puerto Principe. Weyler’s
troops were terrorized at his cruelty and
barbarity in or near the Rubi mountains.
He killed and butchered 800 peaceful peo-
ple, women and children included.

Hundreds of families concentrated in the
town in the province of Pinar del Rio have
died of fever and misery. Nevertheless the
soldiers of the detachments share their vict-
uals with them. .

This is an insufficient remedy for a
dreadful situation. El Pais and The Dirio
de la Famila, Havana dailies, call upon
charity to assist the poor and sick.

Two battalions have gone to the relief
of Victoria de las Tunas. which was seized
by the rebels. There are still no further
details from there.

General Weyler will probably return to
Pinar del Rio at once.

Maceo has partially divided and subdi-
vided his forces to avoid engagements, and
his main forces are already days ago in the
western part of the province of Pinar del
Rio, having passed” south by Candelaria.

Maceo Outwitted \chler.

General Weyler appears by his own state-
ment to have thought that the rebels’ main
body were still at Rubi and Brujo.

It happened that Maceo was able to go
to Weyler’s rear from the first day of his
operations, leaving some forces to entertain
General Munoz and Weyller.

Meanwhile he passed‘ by the front and
right hand on the road from Regalado to
Cayajabos,from thence south to Candelaria.
to the northwest capital of Pinar del Rio,
where it is reported he awaits an expedi-
tion and has a great supply of victuals, cat-
tle and some ammunition.

Maceo’s tactics are not to give battle,
and he thinks he will be able to give occu-
pat-ion to the Spanish army without any
results being achieved by the troops.

General Weyler’s interview with the cor-
respondent of E1 Liberal of Madrid is con-
sidered by intelligent men as merelya dip-
lomatic resource to divert an important
public opinion at Madrid.

Spain’s "Official" Dispatches.

HAVANA, Nov. 27.—The statement in
the London Times’ financial article of
Nov. 20 that it was reported that an armis-
tice was probable in Cuba is baseless and
is ridiculed here.

Correspondents are authorized to state
that Captain General Weyler will . in no
event commend the idea of a truce, more
especially at the present time, when the
outcome of his operations has proved so
satisfactory, nor does he believe that the
home government will entertain any such
proposition, whether coming from inter-
ested parties or outsiders.

The story published in New York to the
effect that there had been a. rupture be-
tween Captain General Weyler and the
Spanish residents is pronounced from oili-
cial sources to be a fabrication. No dis-
patch has ever been sent from Havana ask~
ing for General Weyler’s retirement.

Captain General Weyler has neither been
asked to resign, nor is General Pando ex-
pected in Havana to take his place.

It is pointed out that the Spanish sym-
pathizers are not losing confidence, and
that on the contrary their enthusiasm is
increasing, as shown by the quick response
to General Weyler’s call for volunteers for
active service. . ,

Hard on the Farmers.

It transpires that after the engagement
fought in the Rubi hills between the Span-
ish forces under Captain General Weyler
hnd the insurgents under Mac-co the Span-
ish commander in chief and his staff were
without provisions for 35 hours. The train
with the supplies on board was detained,
but General chler would not await its ar-
rival and urged his troops onward, regard—
less Of the absence of the provision train.

Captain General .Weyler has issued or-
dcrs to the farmers in the provinces Pinar
del Rio, Havana and Matanzas to carry
the new crop of corn to the garrisoned
towns, and the railroad officials have been
instructed to provide the farmers with cars
and mules with which to facilitate trans-
portation. The corn will be sold to the
commanders of the Spanish columns and
will be used for military purposes. Those
commanders may buy the corn or may ad-
mit it on deposit. After Dec. 20 all corn
found stored on the fa or elsewhere
without the knowledge and consent of the
military commanders will be considered
contraband of war and confiscated.

The Pe‘riidy of Spain.

NEW YORK, Nov. 27.—The Sun this
morning publishes the following:

“La Perfidia- Espanola” is the title of a
pamphlet just published in Spanish by the
Cuban journalist, Senor Jose de Armas-
Cardenas, in which the author relates two
interviews he had in Madrid during the
month of August with the prime minister
of Spain, Senor Antonio Canovas del Cas-
tillo. The pamphlet is dedicated to Mr.
C. A. Dana as a testimony of thanks for
his services to the Cuban cause.

After having consulted Senor Estrada
Palma, the Cuban delegate in the United
States, and knowing the opinion of Gen-
eral Gomez, Senor Armas tried to learn
also what Senor CanOvus would think
about a peaceful arrangement of the Cu-
ban question in the form of a contract be-
tween the belligerents, in which Spain
should grant independence to Cuba and
the Cuban republic agree to pay a war in-
demnity to Spain. In last May, and
through an important Spanish official, the
Count of Case.~ Miranda, Senor Armas,
while in Paris received news that the
prime minister of Spain was ready to hear
him on the subject, provided Senor Armas
could guarantee that in case the Spanish
government should make such a proposal
the Cubans in arms would accept it.

The Views of Palma.

Senor Armas had then another inter-
view with Senor Palma, and the latter
ofl'ered to transmit the proposal to the Cu-
ban government and gave his personal
opinion in favor of it as well as his guar-
antee that the Cubans in arms would be
willing to make such an agreement, but,
knowing the Spanish pride,-_lie told Senor

Armas not to act as arefiresentative of the l

Cuban revolution, because the‘ Spanish
government would believe that they were
looking for peace anl had found them-
selves too feeble to continue the war. That
Mr. ‘Palma was right is proved in the
pamphlet eferred to in- this article.

Returnmg to Paris in August, Senor
Armas was escorted to Madrid by an ofli—
cial specially sent for that purpose by
Senor Canovas, and under an assumed
name with a Spanish passport. All these
precautions were needed, because Senor
Armas is a Cuban revolutionist, expelled
from his country by the Spanish govern-
ment. In Madrid Senor Canovas received
Senor Armas, and the first proposal he
made was to grant home rule to the island
of Cuba. As Senor Armas answered that
such a thing was out Of the question the
prime minister offered to grant independ-
ence after the Cubans had laid down their
arms, “to satisfy the national pride.”
Senor Armas replied that in his position,
acting independently for the accomplish-
ment of a practical end. he could not
transmit such a. proposal, as the Cubans
would never believe a promise of that kind
made by Spain.

The Premier In a haze.

Here the prime minister grew angry,
and with insulting expressions about Cu~
be. obliged Senor Armas to make an an-
swer which put him in danger of imme-
diate arrest. The affair would have ended
there, but next day, when Senor Armas
was abOut to leave Madrid, the prime min-
ister called him again to his office and
tried to convince him of the wisdom of
transmitting his plan to the Cubans, but
as Senor Armas refused to do it without a
guarantee from the government of the
United States that Spain would keep her
promise, the prime minister then said:

“The United States? Never, never! A
nation of shopkeepers to guarantee the
word of Spain? The United States are
alone responsible for .what happens in Cu-
ba. They are the true authors of the war,
and I assure you that if Spain loses Cuba
the United States will ' pay to Spain what
Cuba is worth. Their Mora claim begins
to cost them dear. The claims of Spain are
now a hundred times more.’ The United
States threatens Europe with the Monroe
doctrine, and Spain, in the name of Eu-
rope, will accept the challenge. Don’t talk
to me about the United States. If they
like to interfere, Spain will fight, and it
they like to take down the Spanish flag in
Cuba they can onlyrobtain it after a glori-
ous Trafalgar in front of Havana.”

Senor Armas ends his pamphlet with
these words:

“The glorious Trafalgar of Senor Cano-
vas may not happen. But the Cuban flag
will float soon victorious in Cuba, even
though on the heap of rubbish into which
the patriots may be obliged to convert
their own land through the endless perfidy
and the historic ignorance of Spain.”

Item-nits For Cuba.

FINDLAY, 0., Nov. 27. —— Lieutenants
Tillman and Lafierty and Timothy Shafer,
Company A, Second regiment, O. N. G,
have left for Tampa, Fla. ,‘ to join an ex-
pedition for Cuba. It is understood that
for some time a Cuban agent has been en-
listing members of the national guard oi
this state, and that a few men will go from
each regiment. All of them are under or.
ders to report at Tampa. The two officers
from here were well supplied with money.

PRANOIS’ PREDICTION.

He Says Legislation Against Trusts Is an
Absolute Necessity.

KANSAS CITY, Nov. 2-7.—-.Something of a
stir was created among the gold standard
Democrats here by the reading of a letter
from Hon. .D. R. Francis, secretary of the
interior, at a banquet held in celebration
of' the defeat of free silver. After referring
to the result Of the election and declaring
that in his opinion it settled the financial
question at least until the existing standard
shall have been given “ fair and thorough
trial, Secretary Francisgaid:

“While I agree with the advocates ol
sound money in the fight recently made,
there are many principles advocated by
some of those who have been advocates 01
that cause to which I cannot subscribe. Ii
some legislation is not enacted to check the
growing influence of wealth and circum-
scribe the powers of trusts and monopolies,
there will be an uprising of the people be-
fore the century closes which will endan-
ger our institutions.”

eople and the minds of thinking people.
They know that a really good complexion
is a sign of health, and created by Nature.
There are different ways of imitatm a fine
complexion : cosmetics, which dcce ve no-
body, but ruin the skin and make_the user
look silly and prematurely old ; stimulant!
which only give a temporary flush ' danger-
ous drugs which drive pimply disorders
from the face back into the blood. All
these “counterfeit" complexions are .un-
safe and easily detected. But the genuine
unmis keable, much-admired. color .and
clearn s of health can only be obtained
by clearing all bilious matters and humors
out of the blood. ‘ _ ‘

The first step towards creatin a good
complexion by Nature’s own_ met 9d 15 to.
get the blood clear, and the Circulation free
and active. There is no complexron so sal-
low, muddy or pimply but it'w1ll be cleared
and brightened by Dr. Pierce’s Golden
Medical Discovery. It is the best natural
complexion-maker on earth. It sends the
fresh glow of real health .to the checks _by
thoroughly clearing all bilious and eruptive
hunters out of the blood. It strengtheps
the digestion and regulates the bowels in
a mild, natural way. It gives brighter color
to the blood. and not only beautifies the
complexion but makes the eyes brighter
and the breath sweeter. _ ‘

If the bowels be very much constipated,
it will be advisable to take small doses of
Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets, conjomtly
with the use of the “Golden Medical DIS-
covery.” One or two each day—Just suf-

THE. AMERICAN GIRL.

[n Citiesller Escort to Thanksgiving Seg-
vices May be a Messenger Boy. '

A” new collection of drawings, en-
titled, “Pictures of‘ People,”‘ by
Charles Dana Gibson, has been pub-
lished. Mr. Gibson has selected his
own wife as his new ideal typeof the ‘
great American girl.

 

[Copyrighted by the Century 00.”!

The last collection of Gibson’s draw-
ings was dedicated “to a little Ameri-
can girl.” The favored person then
was his ydung sister. This one is dedi—
cated “to a big American girl,” who
is, of course, no other than Mrs. Gib-
son. The second book is as much an
improvement on the first as the big
girl is larger than the little one.

3ibson has now been known for sev—
eral years as the artistic creator of
the typical American girl. There were
critics who said that one girl appeared
too often, but they must admit the
artist is continually giving them more
variety.

The accompanying picture of Mrs.
Gibson’s shows an independent Ameri-
can girl with an cswu’t, who in New
York, can be emphrup‘l at twenty-five
cents an hour, and is better than the
average dudeflor ordinary occasions.

A HOUSEKEEPER’S THANKSGIVING.

She Has Many lilore Reasons for Feeling
Grateful than Had Her Ancestors.

The season for special thankgiving
should make us consider as to whether
we are really and truly thankful for
all our blessings, whether we have not
grown so accustomed to them that we
accept them as but our due. The
housekeeper of all persons has much
to be thankful for above her Puritan
ancestors who instituted this festival.
Those homespun days, the ‘jgood old
times,” as they are mistakenly called,
should have little charm for the house-
wife of to—day. The modern improve-
ments in her home stand out in sharp
contrast to the primitive arrangements
in vogue one or two centuries ago.
The turning of a faucet and the in-
stant gushing forth of hot or cold wa-
ter is a radical improvement upon the
old bucket and well, or even the later-
day pump. The modern housekeepers
can hardly comprehend the labor that
even this one feature of housekeeping
must have entailed in days gone by.
We also find it much easier to buy our
cottons and woolens. in the shops rath-
er, than toil in spinning them our-
selves, as they did. We should be
thankful that we are commencing to
learn how to live, that the mother may
know what will keep her children
well, and how to use the modest al-
lowanct so that it will cover the ex-
pense of living with a little margin

. agains: :iIe rainy day likely to come

to us all.
