The reason for this lies in the
tact that Cuban coffee, like Cuban
P.'L'g""'j. is of :i rare quality and
aroma, and is raised and selected
by experts and of necessity com-
mands a price which would not
easily find a market for the pro-
duct abroad, On the fields Cuban
coffee sells from $'4,1 to $2.7 per
hundred pounds. In bygone days
these “Cafetelas” (coffee planta-
tions) used to be the pride of the
» Spanish grandees, their original
V>wners, who lived oh the planta-
tion in great style, with their suites
null retinues'. Now of 50 “cafetelas”
it will be found that 40 are owned
by Frenchmen.
Maize, yams, sweet potatoes and
other vegetables grow everywhere
with little care or supervision. In
ytx months they bear. Coffee
whrnbs need the shade and these
plants offer it.
The result is that on most coffee
plantations the vegetables are
grown which amply feed and sus-
tain the plauter who, after six
months, is ou a self-sustaining
basis, with a goodly coffee crop
ahead as clean profit.
• The woods and and forests of
Eastern Cnba abound in every

being mahogany, cedar, rosewood
and “majua,” a wood known the
world over as the strongest and
most durable of all woods, ofia

ly ‘-lose grain. Most or them, in
“ fact, nlneytentha of the wood hinds,

The Hobson kiss, n new barroom
drink, is a rival of the famous giii
rickey, tribute to a Missouri con-
gressman. A famous collie, val-
ued at $2700, is no longer known
us Golddust, but as Emma Arnold.
A New York dressmaker wrote
at length of her having just te-
turnod from Paris, where the at-
tempt to revive the severe garnmet
known as the polonaise had been a
failure. “But with your help,
dear Miss Arnold, it can be made a
go in New York, and my fortune
and reputation will be established.
I know from the pictures of yon
that have appeared in the news-
papers that you will look a dream
in a polonaise. Will you give me
the permission to name it the
Emma Arnold polonaise!” An-
ather modiste, casting out tor a
catchy title, for a new blouse,
promised her a half dozen of her
best specimens of the garraeht if
she would lend to them the luster
of the-“name now famous through-
out America.” / ' .
A ftew York milliner wants to
christen a high crown Alpine-look-
ing hat the Arnold walking hfit,
and promises her an unlimited
supply of them in return for the
favor. LetteiJB and 'telegrams come
to her in floods every day. They
are requests for "locks of ,her hair,
inquiries as to how she dresses her
hair, information that dramas to
be known as the “Hobson BJiss/*
or “How the Hero of Santiago
Distinguished Himself,” are being
rage of position niul local knowl-
edge and made the most of them.
A.....riling to all theory the mor-
tality among the American troops
ought to have been much heavier.
In fact, one might have supposed
that superiority of weapons alone
lire-compared with those used by
infantry a hundred years ago. or
even thirty-five years ago would
have produced the result.
The buttle of Breeds Ilill—pop-
ularly called the battle of Bunker
Hill—was fought in the days of
the flint lock musket and when
smokeless powder was unknown,
hut the easualities on both sides
were relatively much heavier than
in the battles around Santiago.
The Americans did not have more
than 1500 men actually engaged
and the British twice as many.
The American loss was 147
killed and 304 wounded and the
British 220 killed and 828 wound-
ed. At the battle of New Orleans
the American strength engaged
was about 5000 men aud the loss
only eight killed aud thirteen
wounded, while the British loss
with about 10,000 men engaged
was 700 killed and twiee as many
wounded—a much heavier total
loss than that of Shafter’s army
before Santiago. At New Orleans
the British infantry attacked an
intrenched position as it also did
at Breeds Hill. At the battle of
Belmont in 1861 the number of
the union troops actually engaged
' *was 2700 and the number of con-
federates between 4000 aud 5000.
Neither side fought behind in-
trencliments. The union loss was
485 killed, wounded and missing
and the confederate loss was 642
killed, wounded and missing.
Smokeless powder had not yet
been invented and muzzle loading
guns were used by both sides.

According to thrt Augusta Chron-

of 1888 at a political convention at
Mississippi City. Considerable ill-

Chriesman, Burlesou Co.: The
thermometer registered 10.4 de-

cotton that is in a thriving con-
dition.
Georgetown: The hot dry
weather that has prevailed for
several weeks has been broken.
The raiu was badly needed and
came in time to be of great benefit
to the cotton crop.
Duffau, Erath Cor: A fine rain
weather. Plenty of stock water.
The corn crop is good.
Emory, Rains Co.: The cotton
crop has been considerably injured
in the last two weeks on account of
the excessive hot weather and
occasional local showers, which
have caused most of the now forms
to fall off. The potato, pea and
cane crops are exceptionally good.
Fairland. Burnet Co.: The qot-
ton crop is some lator this season
than last, but the yield will be
about the samo or better. This
immediate section has had ample
rain for the present, but the rain
has been local, none having fallen
at Llano on the west or Marble
Falls on the south.
Port Lavaca, Calhquu Co.:
But two portions of the county,
Olivia and Seadrift, have escaped
the ravages of the insects. Owing
to the greatly increased acreage in
cotton, it is estimated that the
same amount wilT be ginned as
last year, but this is likely a heavy
estimate and will fall short. The
corn and oat crops were excellent.
Harwood, Gonzales Co.: It is
awful dry and hot here. No rain
in four weeks. Ssock water is
getting scarce. Cotton is coming
in fast. Most of the cotton and
seed are being’sold as fast as
ginned. Farmers are afraid to

Corn is now made and is a fair
average. Crop milo maize is the
finest ever grown hero. Much of
it will make from 40 to 50 bushels
per acre. Cases of fever among

believed that there will not be
much loss in cattle from that cause.
Range generally in good condition.
Lovelady, Houston Co.: Far-
mers all report that the caterpillar
is at work in the cotton in full
force. Should they eat the bolls
of the cotton in the next ten days
there will be quite a falling of in
the yield, as there is a great deal
of late cotton in this section of the
county.
' San Augustine: The cotton
crop is in fine condition, but some
complain about drought, while a
few others complain of cotton
worms being numerous, but the
eneral calculation is that it will
« as late as Sept. 12 or 15 before
they can come in force sufficient to
destroy the cotton and if so there
will be but little damage done to
the crop. A splendid rain fell
here.
San Antonio: Heavy rains
have fallen over sonthwest Texas.
The precipitation here was nearly
two inches and over the country
westward as far as Del Rio and
Eagle Pass the rainfall has been
even heavier. Rains were heavy
southwest as far as Laredo.
Heavy rains fell 'from Boerne to
Elmendorf, with lighter showers
at other points on the San Antonio
and Aiansas Pass. -
