That Is About the Situation in the Pearl of the Antilles Just Now.;

LIBERALS AltE OUT OF OFFICE

And the Laborers on the Plantations Out of Work.

What More Characteristic Than to "Take to the Woods"? Some Small Fights, One in Ha- , vana Province.

ITavana, Auj,'. 22. The indications ire that the revolution In western Cuba already has practically reached its maximum. The overninont and people generally believe the movement lias received alout all the accessions it will bt likely to f?nin. The promptness of the government in arresting suspected leaders and plotters In Havana and elsewhere and In tending reinforcements to the disturbed districts has had an excellent effect fit strengthening public confidence; and overawing sympathizer with the movement. Attaek Is Apprehended. On the other hand, and not withstanding the quietude in the Pinar del IUo region at present, peaceable inhabitants of the cities of Pinar del Rio, Consolation del Snr, San Juan del Martinez and other western towns are in lR)itrly apprehension of the attack and occupation of these places. The fact that probably 1,000 insurgents are tending to concentrate in the province of Pinar del Rio upon towns inadequately guarded by small detachment of rural guards, mostly inexperienced in warfare, makes the situation grave. Fighting in Havana Province. There were many rumors yesterday of tights at various points in the province of Pinar del Rio, but they have not been confirmed by government or press dispatches. There was some fighting in Havana province, and more- is hourly expected. A detachment of rural guards encountered a portion of Randera's band, with which shots were exchanged at close range. One insurgent was killed and the others scattered. Fifty rural guards are in pursuit of the main band. A detachment of rural guards encountered a new party 'of insurgents near the town of Guln.es, twenty miles from Havana, and charged them, taking thre prisoners, including the leader of the band, and capturing seven horses.

NO POltK FOll OSE PARTY

Eeein To Bo What U Rankling in the Patriots' " Bosoms. In order to appreciate the motives of the insurrectionists it should be remembered that political partisanship In Cuba is radical and tierce, and with the opposition takes the form of violent condemnation of the dominant party. This is particularly true of the province of Pinar del Rio, which claims to tie naturally Liberal, but whose municipal and provincial offices, as elsewhere, are wholly occupied by moderates, the one class by government appointment and the other as the result of the December elections, in which the Liberals took no part. The alleged repressions of 11HC still rankle with the more radical members of the Liberal party. The revolutionary feeling also is quickly revived in the more remote districts, fanned by tales of President Raima's alleged unfairness. This being the Idle season in both the sugar and the tobacco fields men are easily led into excitement. Very few of the more conspicuous veterans have tendered their services to President Palma to assist in suppressing the insurrection. The masses protest fidelity to the government, but there Is less surprise than might be supposed ut the outbreak of the- Insurrection. A cabinet minister stated t3 the Associated Press that two detachments of rural guards yesterday attempted to surround Bandera's company of insurgents, but that the latter refused battle and tied. General Gomez has been ordered brought to Havana. Pino Guerra'a party, the largest band of insurgents in the province of Pinar del Rio. consists of only 200 men. Their war cry Is: "Long live the Liberal party: death to Estrada Palma." A dipateh received here from Santo Domingo. Santa Clara provluee, states that there are forty insurgents out in that vicinity, the first insurrectionist movement in the province. The people nre arming in their own defense. A group of insurgents near Colon, province of Matar.zas. was pursued by a government detachment, which captured three and wounded one of the band. The latter subsequently died. Several more conspirators were arrested late last night in Havana.

The protest of the New York National League base ball club agains the action of Umpire Johnstone in forfeiting the game of Aug. 7 at the Polo grounds to Chicago, when the management of the New York club denied the umpire admittance to the grounds, has been formally disapproved by President Pulliam, of the National League. Pulliam declares that Johnstone was entirely within his rights and that "the silly and unsportsmanlike protest of

the New York club is dismissed and ! the record remains unchanged." He says that the New York club has a constitutional right to appeal from hi finding to the board of directors of the National League, and he trusts it will avail itself of this prerogative and ''give the club owners of this League an opportunity to choose between an

archy and law and order in the con duct of affairs."

Railway Blacksmiths Meet. Chicago. Aug-. 22.--The fourteenth annual convention of the International Railroad Blacksmiths' asociation begun here with seventy-five delegates present from all parts of the United States LIFE'S LITTLE THINGS.

They Co Very Look Way Toward Making: the World Happy. A wild bird's song is a little thinglost in the deeps of a frowning sky. And yet as it falls on a listening ear and ; leaves its message of melody earth's green seems brighter and life ia sweeter all through an autumn day. The coo of a babe ia a little thingmeaningless sound from a vacant mind. But 'tis the only sound that all nations heed the one clear language that all races know. A mother's love 13 a little thing too soon, alas, forgot! But it typifies to blind humankind the love and trust and hope divine that bear with patience calm and sweet the willful wrongs in these lives of ours. A passing smile is a little thing lost In a world of toil and care. And yet the soul with gloom oppressed end the life grown wearied with burdens hard will happier be in the afterglow of a smile that is wannlr kind. A kindly word is a little thing a breath that goes and a sound that dies. But the heart that gives and the heart that hears may know that it sings and sings and sings till at last it blends wltlv the wild bird's song and the coo of babes in what men call the celestial choir.
