LETTER FROM CUBA.
An Interesting Letter From Townsman
Stnttoneil There.
The fnllowinK letter, which oomes from tho
pen of J. Unwell Hughes, of town, who Is
now stationed nt MkIhiixhs, Culm, as nn nt
tsche of the United States Mllltirry Hospital
there, will ho found very lntorrstlnp i
Kmtor of the Hkium): Most Ameri
cans Imvo a YHaun ide of the horrors of
Cuba, on account nf hearing so much about
It that Is not really true. Of course Culia is
not anything liKo t lie United States, hut I
havo found, from personal experience, that
it Is not such a had place to live In. Anyono
coming here at tho present tlmo would not
find it very pleasant, on account of tho In
tonso heat and tho rainy season. It rains
ovoiy day, hut not continually. Tho sky
may ue seen wmioutn cloud and, In littcon
minutes. It will lo as hlack as n In lit, and tho
rain mm r I tic It even rains when the sun
shines. Tlioie are many Interesting si slits
to bo seen hero, but, being under strict mili
tary rules, wo soldiers do not havo a chanco
to g.i sight-seeing as much as we would like
to. Whenever we are not on duty, which Is
very seldom, wo can havo a Pass and eo
whoro wo ploaso. If wo overstay tho tlmo
uuiuen, anu no not report for duty on timo.
wo arc flned for tho llrst offense fretn fifty
conts to ten dollars, according to tho tlmo wo
aro nway. If repeated, wo are court mar-
timed, and that menns the guard housoand a
lino. Somo men aro sent to tho fort nt hard
labor. On tho fifth court martial u man gets
a uou iau discharge, wiilcli Is a discharge
without honor, pay or allowances and from
ono to sis months confinement at tho fort.
At the oxpi ration of tho term of confinement
n gots transportation to tho nearest port in
t io United States. and thon eocsns ho nloasos.
i'he rulos nnd regulations of tho army aro
enforced here a great deal more than in tho
united states.
Upon landing In Cuba, tho first thing
a porsou generally does Is to look and
staro nt everything and ovoryhody.
tho samo as a countryman doos when
ho goes to somo largo city tho first tlmn.
to sco if everything they havo hoard about
mo piaco is really so. 1 came hero with
detachment of 100 of tho hospital corps of
tho u. H, army, tlfty from Greenville. 8. C
and fifty from-Augusta, Ga. When wo wore
boarding tho transport Minnowaska at
Savannah, Oa , wo wore told by a great many
of tho 202nd N. Y. Vol. Inf., who had just
returned lrom .nainnzas, uuna, that wo would
all bo back in tho States again in a month.
Well, wo have been hero nlirtost four months.
auu i ncara nut ono or two say thoy would
hko to no homo again. 1 havo no reasons
for wishing to bo back again, except to sto
my friends and relatives. I am In good
health and onjoy being In Cuba very much.
I havo a verv nlcasant tlmA whim nnt. nn
duty. Tho hospital corps havo a great many
more privileges, nnd moro tlmo to them
selves, than any other branch of tho service
I havo a great deal of timo to co around, as I
am kept for special cases only. At present I
am nursing ono of our own surgoons, Dr.
0111, who has a sovero attack of typhoid
fover. Thore Is no yellow fever horo at all.
and but very llttlo sickness of anv kind
among tho soldiers, as this Is a very healthy
piaco sltuatod along Matauzns Bay. Tho
camps aro situated on a hill overlooking tho
city npd bay, and a strong sea breeze sweops
ovor us an uay long, aiost ail ot tho soldler3
aro now quartered in barracks on account of
tho rainy season Matanzas Is a city of about
tho samo population as Shenandoah, but
covers a groat deal moro ground, and there
are not as many places of interest connected
with tho war as thore is in Havana, whoro I
was nntil tho 12th of April. I lauded nt
Matanzas on tho 27th of March and wont to
Havana on tho 28tb over tho Forro Carril
Unidos Do La Habana. The secenory bo
tween hero and Havana is something
grand. All along tho route you can see or
chards of cocoanuts. lemons, oranges, bananas
and all kinds of tropical fruit, also many
sugar plantations. A groat deal of tho fruit
is left to rot, as the ownors cannot get anyono
to pick thorn. Cubaus won't work, as thoy
aro too lazy. Going from Cabanas to Havana.
in a terry boat across tho Havana Biy, you
see ono of the most Interesting sights, nnd
that is tho wreck of tho battleshln "Maine."
While I was in Havana I had a great deal of
time to go around sight seeing, as I was not
on duty at all there. I visited most all of
tho interesting places. I was in tho castlo
woyler used to live in and the jail where ho
used to confine tho poor, innocent Cubans.
Also Morro Castlo, whero ho used to have bis
executions done, I have also been In tho
prison from which Miss Cisneros escaped.
Tho hospital I was attached to thorois also
very interesting, as it was used by tho Spanish
government for tho caro of her soldiers. It
is a very large place with a capacity for 5,000
cots. It was called tho Alphonso XIII Hos-
pitales. Thero was atone time 3,000 sick
Spanish soldiers quartered there and dying
at the rate of 100 a day. While I was there
we had only 40 sick man with about 300
hospital corps and SO female nurses to take
caro of them.
Tho Cristobal Colon Cementario, where
the "Maine" victims are buried, is ono of tho
most beautiful and interesting places to bo
seen. The statuary thore is tho finest I have
ever soon. In ono corneris what is called the
"boneyard." It is about 100 feet square and
fifty feet deep, and is filled with human
bones. In anothor piaco Is what wo would
call a morgue, and to this piaco all the bodies
of paupers and others who cannot pay funeral
expenses aro taken and put into trays and
covered with quicklimo to eat tho flesh away.
Tho bones are then thrown into the "bone
yard." There is also another nlaco about
an acre square, with a stono wall eight
feet thick around it, and into this
wall aro holes resembling ovens and
large enough to admit a csllln. Thoy aro
called vaults and aro ronted to people who
cannot buy a lot for burial purposes. If the
rent Is not paid promptly tho body Is thrown
on the bonepile and, at tho end of fivo years.
as they cannot he rented any longer, the re
mains aro put on the bonepile and tho vault
rented to somo ono else. A funeral in Cuba
is much different from one in America, and is
a queer sight. A wealthy person's funoral is
nice to see. lue hearse looks more like a
band wagon belonging to a circus than it docs
a hearse, as it is decorated very elaborately
and drawn by four or six horses, also decor
ated with lancy harness and varicolored
dumes. There are from six to eight at
tendanta who look like the monkeys that an
organ grinder generally has. They act as
pallbearers, lhey wale at the beads of the
horses and ride on the hearse. Women novor
go to a funeral, and there are generally but a
few men. Poor people have quite a different
style. Thero Is no hearso and no mourners.
and the colli a is carried on tho shoulders of
four men. Such are some of tho dally scenes
in uuoa.
Havana is a queer city with queer people
It might be termed the whito city as the
buildings aro white. They are all made of
stone, or a combination ot cracked stono and
cement, and aro very strong. The only
woodwork is on the doors and windows, and
they, too, are very strong and massive. Tho
windows have an iron grating running from
top to bottom and there is no glass in thorn.
They are made so as to keep the light and
sun out. All houses are only one-story high.
The only peoplo seen on tho streets in the
daytime are thoso who really have to bo out,
but, alter tho sun goos down, thoy all come
out for fresh air and to promenade the
Prada. The women and girls, called senoras
and senorltas, that is tho best classof Cubans,
are very fair and beautiful, and aro very
hard to get acquainted with. They never go
out alone, and are always chaperoned
They dress very nice In diflercnt colored
silks. Courting Is quite different here from
toe custom In the statos, and no doubt a
great many American girls would obtect to it.
You can walk along any street at night and
see the lovers making love through the iron
ban, tho senorita on the inside and tho
hombre. or man. on tho outside. I have be.
come acquainted with several girls here, aid
It Is certainly amusing to be wun them
Tboy cannot speak English, and I cannot
speak Spanish very well, but I make somo
awful attempts at It, It is a very easy
language to learn. Men and women drink a
great deal down here, but you novor tee
drunk, except a soldier who has been trying
some of the mixtures that are sold in tho
saloons. A poraon not used to these drinks
can keep drunk for a couple of days on an
American quarter, 30 cents in Spanish money,
as they only cost two centsa drink in Spanish
money. Take the Cubsns all through, they
are the laziest peoplo under the tun, and
they will always be poor as long as Cuba is
an island, ir they don't change, mey will
not go out to work in the country, whero
there is plenty of it on the plantations, but
stay in the cities and think the American
government ought to keep them. The soil
here Is very rich and fertile and yields three
crops a year, while fruit trees always have
fruit on them. A great many of the Cubans
live entirely on tho fruit. The poople of
