Better to weave in the web of life
A bright and golden filling,
And to do God’s work with a ready heart
And hands that are swift and willing,
Than to snap the delicate silver threads
Of our curious lives asunder,
And then blame heaven for the tangled ends,
And sit to grieve and wonder.
In Central Cuba.
Part oft General Wilson's Report on His Provinces.
One-Third of the Population of Matanzas Swept
Away by War.—S8anta Clara More Fortunate, but
Suffered.
The war department has made public a
portion of the reportsent by General James
H. Wilson in response to the orders of the
secretary of war to the military command-
ers in Cuba, asking for a general view of
the condition of the people, with reference
to the ultimate establishment of a civil
government. Only that part of the report
which relates to the social, political and
industrial condition of the provinces of
Santa Clara and Matanzas is made public.
It deals chiefly with the former. General
Wilson’s recommendations as to how the
new government should be set up and
maintained in operation are withheld for
the present. This is General Wilson’s
second part on this general subject, and is
dated July 20th. His first report, dated
July 7th, has not been published.
STATICTANS FROM SANTA CLARA.
General Wilson states that the area of
the province of Santa Clara is 8,773 square
miles. Its population in 1897 was 354,000;
in 1899, from the best obtainable data on
hand, it was 310,000. Thus one-seventh
of the population had died. The number
of horned cattle in 1896 was 304,000; the
number of horses, 96,000, and the number
of mules 18,000. In 1899 the number of
cattle, 66,000, the number of horses, 19,-
000; the number of mules 8,000. The
sugar mills operating in 1896 were 159;
the number of mills not destroyed but idle
in the present year, 31, while sugar mills
now in operation, in 1899, are 41. Of the
25 principal sugar estates one is owned by
a Spaniard. four by Americans and 21 by
Cubans. The number of sacks of sugar
produced in 1898 was 729,000, of the value
of $5,206,070; the number of sacks of sugar
produced in 1899 was 762,000, of the value
of $6,120,010. The amount of tobacco
produced in 1899 is estimated at 85,000
bales, of the value of $3,187,500. The
amount of coffee produced in 1898 and 1899
is estimated at about 500 hags.
CHEAP LABOR, FEW SCHOOLS.
The pay of unskilled labor is 40 cents in
silver per day; cost of living: rice, 6 cents
per pound; cornmeal, 4 cents per pound;
beans, 7 cents per pound; dried meat, 25
cents per pound. The number of hospitals,
14; homes for girls, orphans and old peo-
ple, 11, with a total of 2,150. The rail-
roads in the province cover in the aggre-
gate 260 miles. This does not include the
numerous hranches belonging to the plan-
tations. The number of schools in the
province is 164, with a total capacity of
11,000 children. The number of children
of school age is 24,000.
THE DESTITUTE AND HELPLESS.
The number of rations issued to the
destitute from January 1st to June 30th,
was 693,350, and the number of destitute
was 44,050. The number of helpless re-
quiring support is 4,500; number of or-
phans in asylums, 606; total to be support-
ed, 5,108; number of inmates of hospitals
and asylums, 1,674; number for whom ex-
tra accommodations are needed, 3,434.
General Wilson states in his report that
he made a tour of inspection of the prov-
ince of Santa Clara between April 29th and
May Gth, 1899, accompanied by a number
of local officials and members of his staff.
Later, between May 11th and 24th, he
made a second tour of a more remote part
of the province. Among the number of at-
tendants was the Rev. Samuel W. Small,
supervisor of public struction.
The country outside of the towns was dev-
estated, and not one farm house or hut so
far as his observation went had escaped
destruction. - Horses, cattle, pigs and cows
had been driven off or killed, and the peo-
ple herded into the towns. Some of the
large sugar centres or mills were preserved,
due to the owners having means to pay one
or both sides to protect their property.
The mortality due to reconcentration and
consequent starvation appears to have heen
in Santa Clara province about one-seventh
of the population, as compared with the
loss of one-third of the population of Ma-
tanzas province. This difference General
Wilson believes is to be attributed to the
difference in the character of the country
and the more widely and scattered popula-
tion, which enabled more of the inhabi-
tants to evade strict compliance with the
orders of reconcentration.
CHARACTER OF THE COUNTRY.
The province of Santa Clara, with the
exception of the swampy peninsula of Za-
pata, is generally of a rolling surface. with
here and there small rocky hills projecting
ahove the general level. Southeast of the
centre and east of Cienfuegos there is a
group of hills or mountains of considerable
elevation, some reaching to nearly 2,000
feet. The plains of the western portion
are devoted to sugar. Tobacco is grown in
the broken country in the Remedios dis-
trict between Cienfuegos and Placetas on
the north.
South of the centre are the heavy and
broken countries of the east and south,
which are devoted to cattle raising. Much
coffee was formerly produced, but its cul-
tivation was abandoned generally some
years ago. There are now indications of a
revival of interest in its culture, for which
much of the hilly land is specially adapted.
This land is generally fertile, and if prop-
erly farmed would support a dense popu-
lation.
ABUNDANTLY TIMBERED.
Santa Clara is fairly well watered by
the running streams. The population is
not so dependent upon wellsas in the prov-
ince of Matanzas. The deeper wells, when
they have not been filled with refuse, fur-
nish good water. Grass is everywhere
abundant. Hay is not made, as the growth
is available all the year around. Fire
wood is sufliciently abundant everywhere,
and sells at $2.50 to $6 per cord. The
timber comprises the palmetto, cocoa, man-
go, ceiba, cana, the brava orange. lime,
marney, pine, salvelera, oak, and occasion-
ally mahogany. The plains, as a rule,
have but little timber, having been cleared
out for cultivation.
HARD TO BREATHE.
The mountains are usually densely cov-
ered with trees, and in some places the
brush rises so high and thick on both sides
the narrow trail as to shut off the air from
a man on foot, making the districts im-
practicable for any troops but cavalry.
While the roads near the cities have
once been good, they have been absolutely
neglected so long that they are almost use-
less as a means of communication.
NEED OF ROADS AND RAILROADS.
A road is greatly needed to connect Sanc-
ti Spiritus with Placetas. A wagon road
would be very expensive, while a railroad
could be built through a distance
of forty miles ata cost of about $10,000 per
mile. Another road is needed from Santa
Clara to Camaguay, especially the five miles
nearer Santa Clara over the mountain side,
upon which work was begun by the Span-
ish administration. A third road is need-
ed from Vaeltas to Vegde la Palms, a dis-
tance of about two miles. This road is of
prime importance connecting Vueltas,
which grows much tobacco and corn, all of
which has to be carried by cart over this
very bad trail. A fourth road needed is
one from Caiberien to Remedios to facilitate
intercourse between these two towns,
which are separated by but a few miles,
and are interdependent. The above men-
tioned road are those especially recommend-
ed as immediately necessary.
General Wilson dwells at some length
upon the necessity of a bridge over the
Damuji, one of the largest rivers in the is-
land. This river is navigable between
Rodas and the bay. of Cienfuegos.
THE HARBORS.
The harbor of Cienfuegos is first-class in
every respect, and is the only good harbor
on the southern coast west of Manzanillo,
unless another should be found in the bay
of Cochinas. Boats drawing over nine feet
of water cannot come up to the dock, but
have to be unloaded by lighters. With im-
provements, the largest boat may be able
to come to the dock. The two harbors on
the northarn coast of Isabella and Caibarien
are very shallow, and steamers are obliged
to anchor a number of miles out and be un-
loaded by lighters.
Santa Clara has custom houses at Cien-
fuegos, Trinidad, Zaza, Sagus la Grande
and Caibarien, and General Wilson thinks
that the duties therefrom for 1899 will ag-
gregate over $1,500,000.
THE SUGAR INDUSTRY.
The manufactures of the province of
Santa Clara are sugar, alcohol and tobacco.
Of these by far the most important is sug-
ar, of which the province in 1899 furnish-
ed 42 per cent. of the total exports of the
island. The provinces of Santa Clara and
Matanzas together furnished in 1898 91 per
cent. and in 1898 79 per cent. of the total
exports of the island. The war left in
operation forty-one sugar ceutrals, and
twenty-one others not in operation, but in
working order. The number destroyed
was about eighty-seven. Many of the
mills destroyed were lying idle and did not
have modern machinery, which is now
requisite, and had largely been driven out
of business by the competition between
beet and cane sugar. :
The tendency of sugar making is to the
concentration of the work at the large cen-
trals. The mills now operating are sup-
plied with modern machinery, employing
more scientific processes. Their capacity
will be sufficient for all the cane which can
be raised in the next two or three years.
The ownership of the centrals in operation
is divided as follows: Four Americans, one
Spanish and 28 Cubans. In the province
of Matanzas the owership is divided be-
tween 29 Cubans, 20 Spanish, seven Amer-
icans, two Germans and one French.
Of the total population, 102,000 are
children under 18 years of age. Except
ing Cienfuegus, the population is engaged
in farming and the manufacture of sugar.
Some cigars are made, but not many more
than are required for local consumption.
The crop of tobacco for the year 1898
amounted to 85,000 bales.
Garden produce is raised in quantities
sufficient for local consumption, but the
prices for the same in the towns are high.
Fruits are not plentiful. Fowls and eggs
are excessively dear, owing to the de-
struction of all poultry during the war.
The pay of laborers on the sugar estates
varies from 40 cents a day for unskilled
labor to $1.75 for skilled. Wages must
necessarily rise as work is undertaken, as
the supply of labor islimited. The skilled
laborers are generally Spaniards or for-
eigners. The field hands are Cubans, col-
ored or white.
AGRICULTURE REVIVING.
General Wilson says that the revival of
agriculture has rapidly progressed under
very discouraging circumstances. He says
that the people very greatly lack animals.
It requires three yoke of oxen to plow
some of the stony fields. He says that in
districts less stony mules would prove
more useful, as they are more active. The
grazing lands of the province formerly pro-
vided all the cattle required. Pigs, sheep
and fowls have disappeared.
The small native horse has a fine gait
and travels over the rough, stony trails at
a rate of six miles an hour, while the
American horse, on account of the footing,
cannot break his walk of three miles an
hour. When roads are made passable for
wheels American animals will be in de-
maud. The same remarks apply to the
native mule, a very small pack animal.
The value of sugar land ranges from $3 to
$60 per acre. Farms vary in size from a
single caballeria (thirty-five acres) to ‘‘col-
onias’’ and ‘‘ingenious’’ of many thousand
acres. The foreign investor will he at a
disadvantage in the examination of titles
as compared with a resident until responsi-
ble companies are established to look up
deeds and grants.

——Parents make a great mistake, says
Miss Bouton, when they toil and grind,
scrimp and save, in order that their chil-
dren may begin where they leave off. It
is necessity that develops the wings with
which to fly the lofty heights. This shut-
ting out of your own life all the light and
beauty of the world, to flood theirs from
the beginning, is to make a wide differ-
ence hetween you, which often produces
bitter sorrow, even if it does not bring them
failures or a dwarfing of their powers. If
life gives them ease and comfort without
effort, there are nine chances in ten that no
effort will be made, and hence no true
growth in character. Rather make them
understand that they are and must be the
architects of their own lives, and that diffi-
culties make the ladder by which they
make the higher climb.

tendent of public instruction, has chosen

Mrs. G. W. Palmer, of Jonesville, Vt., says:
“Two years ago I was afflicted with stomach
and bowel trouble. My case puzzled the doctors.
1 subsisted only on the lightest kind of diet. My
stomach would not retain solid food. The pain
in my stomach and bowels was so intense that I
cannot describe it. I continued to grow worse.
I lost 48 pounds, my nerves were completely
shattered, and I was very weak. Dr. C. W.
Jacobs, of Richmond, advised me to take Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. I began to
use the pills, and the first effect was the restora-
tion of my appetite, and the quieting of my shat-
tered nervous system. I began to regain my lost
strength, and in one month after commencing to
tale the pills I was able to do my housework. I
have gained 30 pounds and today am in good
health.” —From the Free Press, Burlington, Vt.
