In every Cuban town it was the signal for nubile re J( iclnjr.-i. The olliccrs of the army were i.llowed to take part la the feasts. Dm Ins: threo days the military bands played fur the dances of the ueople. The women anil children left the stroiiKhalds where they -ire safely guarded nrralnst the raids of the Span ish columns and joined the tnthuslas tie soldiers In their sons end cheers. It Is really a pity that thlr scene was noi wIMusspiI !v those foi-elsners who still doubt that the Cubans control the country and believe in the Spanlfch re ports which describe them as a few bands of negroes roaming to and fro." OFFICIAL. ANNOUNCEMENT. ' Maso received the ofllclal announce. ini.nl of his election," writes another lonespnndent. "with Mole calm. He 1' l not presented his candidature to the assembly of representatives. lie lid not nnlco the least effort In fnvor if It. On the contrary, when his friends in Red him either to write a manifesto r to Inlluence In hU favor some lead ers nf the army, he oppply refused an swrins;: 'l do not desire to be elected, and If I am I shall accept the election lily .is a duty Imposed on me.' Ho Is the very representation of modestv, luniestv. and self-sacrifice to his coun try. 'Wo are not laboring for our jlves,' ho always sayn, 'but we are worklnir to ninke a free, happy and prosperous country out of an enslaved and debased Spanish colony. yor lls are all the hardships, and let us only be tatlslled villi hoeing, before our So ara closed forever, that we hav uttalned the t'reat end for which so many Cuban generations have longed In fore us." Haitolome Maso was born in Santi ago de Cuba C2 years ago. The only Picture of him that the Cubans have In this city represents him much youtiKer than he Is now. Some Span ish newspapers said early in 169r, that Maso was a native of Catalonia, Spain, .mil from that many persons In the peninsula entertain the wrong- Idea that he is a Spaniard llslitlnir against his own country. The mistake may be as cribed to the fact that a Catalonian named Mlro, a gallant .nldler. who was the chief of staff of Oeneral Maceo. is also a prominent leader In the Cuban ranks. Maso was conspicuous In the last ten years' war, and reached the rank of brigadier, flshtlng bravely in Santiago de Cuba province under Oenerals Clur chi and Maceo. When the treaty of Canjon was signed in 1S7S ho refused to surrender to General Martinez Cam pos, nnd kept up the war until Maceo sailed for the United States. Then he returned to tho plantations he owned near Manzanlllo. and there. In fourtien years of constant labor In the coun try, he made u fortune estimated, when tho present war began, nt $100,000. .Mar tin, who prepared from New Ycrk tho new revolution, wroto to him about his Plans, nnd Muso enthusiastically re ceived them and resolved to sacrifice his fortune once more, nnd to risk his life for the freedom of Cuba, Ho was the first Important man to take up arms In the Island against Spain, on the 24th of February, 1895. When ho made up his mind to revolt for tho second tlmo ho went to the town of Manzanlllo and paid his cred itors, closing nil hl accounts as n farmer. Tho people who dealt with him In his plantation business were all Spaniards, nnd when they knew, a few days later, that ho was at the head of the revolutionists near Manzanlllo, In uplto of being hla political enemies, mm i m a U VI1IIUI Will they prnlsed his great honesty as a man. Had Mno desired to cheat them It would hnve boon easy for him. Ills own troops Bhortly afterward destroyed his sugar-cane fields to prevent tho Spanish government from seizing them and obtaining revenue from their pro duction. Many mich instances ns this make tho new president of Cuba known among Spaniards and Cubans alike ns J f1ft lintinaf 1na SAVED THE ItEVOI.UTION. After tho uprising of the 24th of Feb ruary, 1893, the Cubuns found them selves at Halre, Manzanlllo, with so few arms and so little ammunition that many considered it folly to go on In their patriotic enterprise. The arrival of Oomrz, Maceo and Marti was ex pected, but no certain news of them had been received. In such circum stances a commission composed of Sen oiei; Hcrmlnto L,pyvn, Juan H. Spotor no, and other Autonomists, called at tho Cuban comp to offer Mnso, In tho name of the cnptnln general of the Isltind, Don Emilia Calleja, some terms of surrender. The captain general rk'dgcd himself In the name of Spain to grant political reforms to Cuba the very uutonomy that Segasta an nounce.'! now If the war wero averted. Maso rallied his men, reminded them of their votes to light, for "Independ ence or death," nnd answered the com mlFsionem that the Cubans could nev er nccf.pt with honor any compromise with tho Spanish government not based I on their absolute freedom. Then tho relentless fighting began. Maso with an tinny of Inexperienced young men of , Mni'S.anlllo, SO per cent, of them with no other weapons than their agricul tural tools, courageously .stood tho fierce attacks of tho Spanish columns under General hachambre. Hut within a month Gomez, Maceo, and Marti landed. They brought, rillcs and cart ridges, and they set the revolutionary lire from enst to west. "Maso," wrote Gomez when the whole Island was ablaze, "saved the revolu tion and deserves to be called tho FMhcr of his Country." The election of president of Cuba of such a man at the very moment In which Spain Is trying to end the war by granting nutonomy Is a proof of tho sincerity with which the Cuban army rejects all offers of peace at the price of independence. EAMI.V DO.Vi;, How a I!ic)cle, Girl Got Kid of mi Annoying t licelman. From the Detroit Tribune. She was young and pretty anil alone. Her bicycle costume was ntut, trim, .mil becoming, and mounted upon a wheel tho llo.ited along over the smooth paths ami I'o.nls, the cynosure of many admiring masculine eyes and pel haps the envy ot many feminine. She was enjoying the plc.isuivs of an afternoon spin on Belle Isle. Tile exercise had tinted her cheeks with a pink glow ot the kind that never saw the Inside of a drug store, and that always will bailie the art of the chemist, nnd her eyes were glistening with the e. hlllratiun of health. Shu was riding up Central avcnuo and had reached a point nbout midway be tween the Casino and the Zoo, when she met with an annoyance, that ladies riding alone are frciiuently subjected to. but i which this young woman disposed ot In I n most r,.f nlllnir nlwl tinvpl inm-innr Vm annoyance manifested Itself la the form of a dtidlsh young man of the masher species, lie rode a bicycle, wore golf hose, a pink shirt, had his hair parted accurately In the middle, and was pos sessed of assurance largely In excess of Ills stock if common sense. "ISeg pardon," said he. riding alongside, and lifting tils cap with a smile that was Intended to tie perfectly Irieslstiiile, "but haven't we met before?" She answered him by throwing him a look that woidi" have withered anything less fresh, and moved over to the further side of the avenue. Nothing abashed, he followed tult. and with another bow nnd smile that was as Chesterlleldlan ns a mounted blicle will permit, said: "I hope I am not Intruding, but ' "You aro it.tiudlng, sir. 1 do not know you and do not wish to talk to von." "Well, If ion don't know me, let us get ncijunlnted. You know "' Slackening her speed, she had .suddenly dismounted, and, leaning over her wheel, began to carulully examine one of .he pedals. He was off his machine In an li'xtant, "Allow me to assist you." said he, quickly seizing the opportunity presented. She said nothing, but leleasing her wheel to him took his to hold, while hu went down on his knees to the otfcndlng pedal. He was not sooner on his mar iows, with his face to the ground, than she deftly extracted n hairpin from hi r Fedora and (illicitly Inserted the point Into the rear tire of his wheel. Hy the time he had discovered there was abso lutely nothing wiong with the nedai and that It was working as (.monthly as me chanical skill and bicycle oil could mane' It. tho hairpin was resting inoffensively in Its proper place. As she whirled merrily out the avenue a would-be mat-her stood by his bicycle with a tire as flat as the prowrblal pan cake. What his emotions were as she faded from view among tho trees will never bo known, but it wac with crest fallen counternnce that he slowly wheeled his machine over to the bicycle tent for repairs AD.S'I'UQ.HUXGAKI.vXHAIIKt,. From the Chicago Record. To understand tho dltliculty which con fronts the Austrian ministers in their ef fort to maintain the empire, It Is but nee. essary to consider the nature and origin of the various slates composing it. Hero is the list of the chief among the states which have been brought together hi Austria-Hungary: Tho Archduchy of Austria. The Duchy of Salzburg. The Duchy of Styria. The principalities of Tyrol, Voralberg and Leichteiistein. The Kingdom of Hohemia. The Margravato of .Moravia. The Duchy of Silesia. The Kingdom of (Jallcla and I.odomurla. Hukowlna. The Kingdom of lllyria, composed of. The Duchy of Cailnthla. The counties of Carnlola, Uorlzlu and UraillMcn. The city and territory of Trieste tfreo town). The Margravato of Istrla. The Kingdom of Dulmatla, including: Tho Republic of Uagllni. Tho Uoccho ill Cattaro and tho Pri me rle. Tho Kingdom of Croatia and Slavonia. The Mllltaiy Frontier. The Vulvodlna and ll.tnut. The Kingdom of Hungury proper. Tho Principality of Transjlvanla. The s.injaks of Uosnla, Herzegovina and NoW-Dazaar (Hatciu). Each of theso btate.s at some time has maintained some form of statehood and a corpoiato existence. Almost all aro de rlyed from kouiccs arising f.,r back in tho middle ages, while many go beyond feudal times, end ure traceable to tho distinc tions nrislng among elemental tribes and races. Sonio of them are large, having the dignity of states; many of them aro barely moro than fortified or free towns. They tiro tho states which, out of a total of llfty-six kingdoms, duchlos, counties, principalities, towns nnd lordships, re tained a formal existence at tho tlmo when tho empire was formed, Stimulate the stomach, rouse the liver, euro bilious ness, headache, dlzzlncu, our tomacli, conitlpation. eir. rnce zi crnti.
