THARE AIN'T NO FUN.
Thare ain’t no fan a-fishin when yore bait’s a-
gittin low
An you feel the jug a-light'nin ever time you
thirsty grow.
The fish somehow quit bitin, an you have a
strange desire
To tell some tales 'hout fishin, jest like any
other liar.
Thare 2in’t no fun these mornin’s when winter
seems to float
An mix in with the weather, while yore last
year’s overcoat
Is hangin up at uncle’s, an the ticket that you
hold
Is all youve got to wrap in an protect you from
the cold.
Thare ain’t no fun a-votin when the race ain’t
very hot,
When candidates seem keerless an air jest as
apt as not
To ask yore help tor nothin, like any man can
float
An take keer of his family ef he gives away his
vote.

Porto Rico.
A Fertile Country, Undeveloped under Spanish
Sway.
The island of Porto Rico is the smaller
of Spain’s two remaining colonies in West
Indian waters. It lies 80 miles to the east
of Hayti, and close beside it to the west-
ward lie the group comprising the Virgin
islands. Porto Rico’s general shape is that
of a parallelogram. Itslength is 108 miles,
and its breadth at the widest is 37. A
range of hills traverse the island from east
to west some distance from the southern
coast. These hills—the highest, El Yunke,
being 3,600 feet high—intercept the north-
east trade winds, and the northeastern
lowlands have oftentimes an overabundant
supply of water, while severe droughts are
experienced in the soath, making it neces-
sary to have recourse to artificial irrigation.
In general, however, the island is well
watered. The coast line is indented with
many bays and creeks, several of which can
be used by ships of heavy burdens. In
accordance with the situation of the mount-
ain chain, the rivers which flow toward the
northern coast are longer and deeper than
those on the opposite side, and several of
the latter allow coasting vessels to enter
five or six miles.
The climate of Porto Rico is supposed to
be less unhealthy for Europeans than most
of the Antilles, and the heat, even in the
months of summer, is not so severe as in
other parts of the West Indies. The New
York Zribune says :
The lack of good roads and of bridges in
many parts of the island has been one
cause of the failure of the island to de-
velop its real value as a producer of agri-
cultural products. In late years, however,
the government has done much to increase
the island’s resources. Gold, coal, copper,
iron and salt are found, but the last alone
is mined. Sugar and coffee are the staple
products, the former being grown for
the most part on the southern coast. On
the fertile plains to the north of the hills
tobacco, cotton, maize and tropical fruits
grow readily. Rice, the principal food, is
a mountain variety, needing little rain.
Much of the tobacco is sent to Havana for
manufacture. The mountains are covered
with forests, which yield valuable dyes and
hard weods for exports.
Cattle-raising is another profitable in-
dustry to the inhabitants, and the pasture-
lands in the north and east are superior to
any others in the West Indies. A large
traffic has been carried on with the neigh-
boring French, English and Danish posses-
sions. Exports of various kinds, which in
1850 amounted to about $11,000,000, had
in 1891 reached a total of nearly $17,000,-
000.
Seven departments, each under the com-
mand of a Spanish colonel, make up the
island. Bayamon, in which is San Juan,
the capital, Arecibo and Aguadila are on
the northern site of the range. Mayagnez
covers the southwest part. Ponce and
Guayama are on the southern side, and the
eastern part is taken up with Humacao.
The island of Bieque, to the east, makes an
eighth department, which is used as a mil-
itary penal station.
The population of the island—num-
bered 315,000 in 1830. The total
population at present numbers ahout
900,000. The people of European origin
are Spaniards, Germans, Swedes, Danes,
Russians, Frenchmen and Cheutas, or de-
cendants of the Moorish Jews of Majorca.
There are also some Chinese. The small
landholders in the country districts are
called Gibaros, and are of Spanish origin,
modified by Indian blood.
San Juan, the capital and chief seaport,
lies on Morro island, on the north coast,
and is connected with the mainland by
bridges. The ground rises toward the
ocean in low hills, and the city lies direct-
ly behind the highest one at the harbor’s
entrance. Fortifications, some of them ofan
obsolete type, protect the city from an at-
tack on the land side, while on the bluffs
fronting the ocean new batteries of Krupp
guns are said to have been placed, from
which a plunging fire can be directed on
approaching vessels. The channel at the
eastern end of the island has a depth of
only one and one-quarter fathoms, but two
batteries have been mounted here to pre-
vent the landing of troops for a shore at-
attack. The bay is of an oval shape and
admits ships of heavy tonnage.
In the old fort of Santa Catalina is the
overnor’s palace, and a cathedral, a town
ouse, a theatre and an old palace built by
Ponce de Leon are among the sights of
town. It has population of 26,000.
Ponce, on the south coast, has a popula-
tion of about 40,000. Private houses are
built of wood, and only the government
buildings are constructed of brick and
stone. There is a town hall, a public hos-
pital and an English Episcopal church in
the city, which is lighted throughout hy
gas supplied by an English company.
Mayagnez, on the west coast, is several
miles inland. Its population is about 30,-
000, and it has military barracks, clubs
and gas works. Other towns are Gugama,
on the south coast, the Aguadilla, on the
west. The only safe harbor at all times
of the year are San Juan, Hovas and Guan-
ica. English, German and American
steamers make regular trips to these three
ports, and in 1891 1,300 vessels were re-
ported.
Porto Rico, called Borinquen by the ab-
origines, was discovered by Columbus on
November 15th, 1493. Ponce de Leon was
the first to make a settlement, when in
1510 he founded the town of Caparra, which
soon afterwards was abandoned. In the
following year he founded the city of San
Juan. The Caribs, whose number, proba-
bly exaggerated, was put at 600,000, suf-
fered so greatly from the cruelties of their
Spanish conquerors that they rebelled
against them and were gradually exter min-
ated in consequence. Interesting relics of
their civilization are preserved in the
Smithsonian Institute and in the Berlin
Ethnological museum. In 1595 Drake
sacked the capital, an exploit which was
repeated three years later by the Earl of
Cumberland. In 1615 Balwin Heinrich, a
Dutchman, was killed in an attack on the
city, and an attempt made by the English
to capture the city in 1678 was also unsuec-
cessful. In 1797 Sir Ralph Abercromby
besieged the city for three days and was
forced to retire, though, in the same cam-
paign he captured Grenada, Demerara and
Trinidad.
Senor de Lome was fond of citing Porto
Rico as an instance of the benificence of
Spanish rule, but the Porto Ricans have
not been happy under Spanish domination,
and have only desisted from the struggle
to gain liberty when they saw that it was
hopeless.
The first attempt was made in 1820, and
the insurgents were defeated after a short
guerrilla war. Other attempts were made
about the middle of the century, but it
was not until 1868 that a wide reaching
plot was formed to follow the example of
the Cubans, who had revolted that year.
It was the extent of the plot which was one
of the causes of failure. The betrayal of
their secrets forced the insurgents into the
field before the appointed time, and after
two months of fighting, the Spanish troops
were victorious. The leaders of the rebel-
lion were captured. All were sentenced
to be shot, but the news of Isabella’s over-
throw reaching the island the day before
the one set for the execution, the sentence
was changed to banishment. These men
while living in other countries have not
ceased to work for their countrymen’s free-
dom and are at the head of an organization
known as the Porto Rican section of the
revolutionary party of Cuba, This organi-
zation arose from the action of the Cuban
revolutionary party in promising to assist
the Porto Ricans in attaining independ-
ence. Dr. Ramon E. Betances, of Paris,
one of the leaders in the uprising of ’68,
was recently elected delegate-general, Dr.
J. J. Hanna, of New York, is the president
and the head of the movement in Amer-
ica.
Government laws and institutions are
the same in Porto Rico as the other Span-
ish dependencies. There is a captain-gen-
eral, whose authority in military matters is
absolute, and who, in civil affairs, is presi-
dent af the royal ‘‘audiencia.’” The court
is composed of a regent, three judges, the
revenue officer and a marshall. It is sa-
perior to all other constituted authorities,
including the ecclesiastical tribune. In
the seven capitals of the departments the
mayors administer justice, and in the
smaller towns there are justices of the
peace, who determine small debts and col-
lect duties, receiving 6 per cent. on the
collections. They are appointees of the
captain-general, who also has charge of the
appointments of the clergy on the bishop’s
recommendation. The permanent army
consists of four hattalions of rifles of four
companies each, one battalion of fortress
artillery workmen, a santiary brigade, and
one ‘‘tercio’’ of the civil guard. There are
also several corps of volunteers, organized
in a manner similar to those of Cuba. The
permanent army numbers 213 officers and
3,630 men.

Side Lights on the War.
Stories Told of These Engaged in the Conflict—The
Hero of the Merrimac—Lieutenant Hobson's Com- |
mand of Language.
Lieutenant Hobson, whose brilliant sink- |
ing of the Merrimac has made him the hero
of the hour, is rather eccentric. The New
Y ork Sun tells this of his days at Annapolis: |
Men who were at the Naval Academy |
while he was there say his classmates at |
first attempted to make life miserable for
the quiet, studious boy, but found that he
could resent their actions in a way that
made them desist before he had teen in the
academy very long. He was only 15 years
old when he went to Annapolis, and his
most marked characteristic was his use of
words seldom in the vocabulary of a young-
ster of his age. One of his classmates said
the other day that Hobson was hazed a
great deal in his plebe year, and many a
dignified officer had the honor of standing
him on his head and making him do all
sorts of ridiculous things in the hazing cur-
riculum. One day Hobson resented the
annoyance to waich he was subjected by
older cadets in these words :
“I do not desire, and neither will I tole-
rate, any more of your scurrilous con-
tumely.”’
At another time Hobson was fishing from
the end of the old Santee wharf, and a
passing classmate asked him what he was
doing. ‘‘Merely indulging in piscatorial
pursuits,’’ said the future hero of the Mer-
rimac exploit. But while other cadets had
fun at his expense, Hobson plodded away
and graduated from the academy second
in his class. He was the captain of Com-
pany A. of the cadet battalion. His choice
of the construction corps was not surpris-
ing to his friends, for it offered opportunity
for the pursuit of mathematical studies.
Louisiana’s Home for Lepers.
An old Mansion that has been Converted into a Dom-
icile for one of the Earth's Most Unfortunate
Classes.
On the east bank of the Mississippi river,
about fifty miles north of New Orleans, at
a place called Indian Camp, in Iberville
parish, stands a typical old plantation
house, large and roomy, surrounded hy
magnificent oaks. The front portico is
supported by six massive pillars. It is
said to have heen the finest house ever built
on the river. :
The plantation was originally owned hy
General Camp, a veteran of the war of 1812,
who spent many thousands of dollars in
beautifying the place the mansion alone cost-
ing eighty thousand dollars. After his death
it changed owners several times. In spite
of its neglect and general dilapidation, In-
dian Camp is a beautiful place. Within its
precincts—the once gorgeous and still
beautiful plantation home—the picturesque
ruins of the anti-bellum sugar house with
its partial ruined chimney—a weed-grown
monument of its past glories. All is a fit
symbol of the human ruin that seeks vest
and peace within its shades. About four
years ago Indian Camp was leased by the
state of Louisiana from the present owner
(who now resides in Europe) for a purpose
of making a home for the lepers. In the
early part of December 1894 seven lepers
were taken to the home. Prior to this
time these unfortunates were confined in a
hospital within the limits of the city.
They were removed to their new abode in
a barge covered with tarpaulins, the som-
bre and dark aspect of which must have re-
minded one of ancient stories of floating
funerals—sorrow ladened vessels—gliding
down the river Nile to the cities of the
dead. There have been thirty-five patients
admitted to the home since December, 1894
—twenty-one males and fourteen females.
Among ‘‘Les-Miserables’”’ six deaths have
occurred since that time. All lepers com-
ing to the home voluntarily have the assur-
ance that their real names will never be di-
vulged or their family connection exposed.
Thire is a law to enforce the sending of
lepers to their refuge, but doubtless there
are some who are concealed by their friends
The disease is mitigated by medical treat-
ment, but no lepers are ever cured. Upon
some of the patients the disease is, in its
early stages, scarcely noticeable, while in
others its ravages are fully displayed,
These poor unfortunates so afflicteil who
enter the gates are henceforth dead to the
world, and in a manner, as it were, buried
alive. A line from Dante’s ‘Inferno,’
“All ye who enter here, leave hope behind,”
Would not he inappropriate if placed over
the gates. The home isin charge of a med-
ical officer and a state hoard of seven, as-
sisted by a corps of Sisters of Charity, who
with great self-sacrifice, have devoted their
time to this service. The sisters reside on
the premises in quarters detached from
those of the patients, but they never leave
the place. To see these sisters move with
quiet footsteps along the shaded paths,
through the flower decked garden, one
would scarcely imagine that it is a home of
suffering and sorrow. Crimson rose cling
closely to the old mansion and iw their
Sweet faces as though to peer through the
open casement and cheer the sad-eyeéd in-
mates. One of the sad cases in No, 15, a
young girl of 20 summers. Generally
speaking, she is fair of face and form, but
there is a sad, far away look in her dark
eyes. If it were not for the deformity of
her bands no one would know that she is a
leper. Her general health is good ; | but
whether her life be long or short, there she
must tarry until the end. A tremulous
little breeze steals through the vines and
whispers about the quiet room where this
young girl sits with an open book, but she
does not read. Her thoughts are far away
—perhaps with loved ones at home, per-
haps with a sweetheart, a fair-haired Jad-
die with whom she expected to tread life’s
pathway. The shadows of night are creep-
ing tide-like over the soft green grass, the
book has fallen to the floor, yet she does
not move until the sound of the bell calls
the inmates to evening prayer. She rises
slowly, and silently passes from sight.
Of all sad words of tongue or pen |
The saddest are these : It might have heen.
No person is permitted to enter the in-
closure except the Sisters of Charity, the
doctors and members of the hoard. Any
money handled by the lepers is first
soaked in a solution of bi-chloride of mer-
cury, and fumigated with the strongest
disinfectants before being put in cirpula-
tion. It has been decided by the greastest
medical authority of the world that the
disease of leprosy is contagious and has
never been cured.

Disfigured Her With a Hat Pin.
Jealous Girl’s Hideous Revenge Upon Her Rial in
Love.
In a furious quarrel over the attentipns
of a man, in the summer garden of a sa-
loon on the Bowery in New York, at 4
o'clock Sunday morning. Ida Ackley, nine-
teen years old, was disfigured for life with
a hatpin by Dora Dean, a girl of the same
age. Dora split and almost tore the nese
from her rival’s face.
After policemen Lyons and Dunham had
taken 2 hand in rectifying the matter as
far as possible by arresting the Dean girl.
Dr. Wan Hood worked over the disfigured
girl’s face for an hour and took many stiches
| to close the gash the hatpin had made,
The slender weapon had entered nea
the left eye and been dragged down towar
the mouth. The nose had been split is

Judge John J. Wickham Dead.
Judge John J. Wickham, of the superior
court, died Saturday afternoon at his home
in Beaver, from a stroke of paralysis, the
effects of over-exertion in extinguishing a
fire started in his house by lightning about
a week ago. Judge Wickham lived in
Beaver nearly all his life, and was a close
friend of Senator Quay. He came here
from Ireland when a small boy, and was
about 65 years of age. He was one of the
best known men of western Pennsylvania.
He served twelve years on the bench of
Beaver county, having been elected to his
second term. In the fall of 1895 he was
elected to the superior cou:t.
