Cuba ; Making Up for Her Long Peace by a Season of Revolution. OFFICIALS VERY OPTIMISTIC Inclined to Think That There Is Nothing Much Doing;. Fact Show That the Itebs Are Increahintf in Numbers and Boldness Capture of Kan Luis Two Engage' rnents. Havana, Au. 23. An attempt was rondo last evening to assassinate General Envilio Nunez, grernor of the province of Havana. A man Lad a revolve leveled at the governor as he was entering his home. Another man who was passing by saw the would-be assassin and cried out, whereupon Governor Nunez turned and drawing his revolver fired over the miscreant's head. The latter was so surprised that he dropped his revolver. He was promptly arrested. His identity Is not known. Havana. Aug. 2.'. On. Rodriguez, commander of the rural guard, after relating the incidents of the day, said to the Associated Press: "'You can tell the American people that Cuba is entirely competent to cope with the insurrection. The flood of rumors in all directions ..built the organization of insurrectionary bands in great numbers i" not borne out by our reports, or, so 1 s can be learned, by the facts. Ti .esult of the encounter at Sau Luis is still not known definitely, but It 1s known that we inflicted some losses on the enemy in that vicinity. The muoh-tnlked-of movement in Santa Clara province has not been encc ntered. and no insurrectionists have been seen there by our forces. Plenty of War Material. "We have today equipped and sent out in various; directions r.uO volunteers under competent, otlicers. We have plenty of Remingtons, and ammunition for all who enlist at present, aud more has been ordered from the United States. Besides we have thousands of old but servicablo guns. We believe tiie loynl people are taking up arms for the government faster than the insurgents are Increasing." Kodriguez Too Optimistic. While the foregoing is typical of the utterances of government oflicia Is there 'me evidences' of threatening Increases in the numbers of the insurrectionists. In the province of Santa Clara the disaffection is widespread, and in the province of Havana a great many people are in sympathy with the Insurgents. In some cases whole communities appear to have been carried away by the recrudescence of insurrectionary times. The extent to which this will lead to open rebellion is still uncertain. Many Ilebels Hiding About. A gentleman who has- returned from 'Aguacate. where he spent several days, '.ited to the Associated l'ress that as ;'iiy as r0O men, most of them armed, were riding about the vicinity proclaiming insurrectionary ideas. KKAIj fighting at sax ixis ItfbeU Concentrate and Defeat the It tint I (Jimrtls Two Fights. The principal event yesterday was the nhtins at San Luis. The reports of the commanders of the rural guard are to the following effect: The bands of Guerrfi, Pozo and others, aggregating about 4(iO men, concentrated yesterday morning in thi vicinity of San Luis. Seventy rural guards, under command of Major Laurent, were to attack the insurgents from the east, and thirty men. under Lieutenant Azcuy were to attack from the west. Azcuy arrived tirst, and got into an illtinied engagement with a far s-uperlor detachment, with the result that he was forced to retreat hastily to San Luis, pursued by n portion of the enemy. The rural guards took refuge in their quarters, snd Guerra's men remained in possession of the town. In the afternoon Major Laurent had n hot tight with the insurgents under Guerra and other insurgent commanders, and reports that several were hilled or wounded. He pursued Guerra. but so far as known did not ret;ike the town. According to other fragmentary reports the insurgents centime in possession of San Luis. Unilway trains have not been interfered with. A detachment of 100 recruits on the way to Guiues had a slight encounter with insurgents, but no one on either side was hurt. An attempt is being mad' with 200 mounted rural guards and regulars to corner Quentin Bandera, who with 1T.0 men is continuing his dodging tactics in t lie western part of the province cf Havana. Three large bands of insurgents are out in the province of Santa Clara. The insurreetion appears to be growing, but the loyalists of the towns allege that they will be able to resist the movement. i.innit AL govkrxou disloyal He Joins the Insurgents Some Details the of San Luis Fight. Havana. Aug. 23. Luis Perez, the l ist Liberal governor of the prcrvince cf Pinar del Ilio, Las joined tiie iusur-

gent forces In that province. Vice Pres

ident Mendez Capote returned to Havana ami had a conference over the situa tion with President Palina. Cuban, Spanish, United States, Canadian and German bankers visited President Pal ma and offered him their assistance. The gorernment later reports from San Luis, which significantly are dated from Pinar del Rio, are to the effect j that Major Laurent, in the afternoon engagement killed four insurgents and captured a few horses and munitions. The major has not yet arrived at Pinar del Rio. A telegram to the gor eminent stated that Major Laurent, with his detachment of rural guards, foug-ht Guerra and his fQO men for three hours yesterday afternoon, completely defeating him, killing or wounding many insurgents and taking three prisoners. The dispatch adds that the rebels disperse! in all directions, being chased long distances. None of the rural guards was hurt. Anotherportionof the insurgent, forces continues in ocupation of San Luis. There is an unconfirmed report from Pirnr dl Rio that Lieutenant Azmy was cuptured and that only nine of his detachment reached Pinar del PVio. General Jose Miguel Gomez, who was arrested Tuesday, was formerly governor of Santa Clara province, and was the Liberal candidate for the presidency last year. He is expected to arrive in Havana today. The aet nearest insurrection in Havana province was the seizing of several horses which were being loaded on a ' !n of the Western railway at ; !u.i. a suburb of the city. Eight veteran's prominent in the last revlution at a meeting have passed a resolution declaring that they will endeavor to end the present strife without bloodshed by their personal influence. BUCKEYE DEMOCRACY Convention Declines to Indorse County Option Stand9 Pat on Pattlson Principles. Columbus, O., Aug. 23. Samuel A. Hoskins. for secretary of state; Chas. W. Ilaupert, for state school commissioner; Rodney J. Diegle, for state dairy and food commissioner, and Geo. E. Xyswonger, for member of the board of public works, constituted the ticket named by the Ohio Democrats here. During the first hour and a half of the session the question of an indorsement of county option In temperance legislation was under discussion, an attempt by YV. L. Finley to amend the platform and give such an indorsement being defeated on a roll call. The discussion developed opposition to the general idea of county option, while some delegates insisted that in having "approved unqualifiedly Governor Pattison's policies" the platform already was strong enough on the very point for which Finley contended. Aside from these features the defeat of Mayor Tom I,. Johnson in the state central committee was the subject of comment. The platform strongly indorses Bryan for president; favors the initiative and referendum; the submission of questions of franchise and public ownership to the people and rigid inspection of private banks. Minneapolis Base nail Case.. Milwaukee, Aug. 23. The case of Manager M. J. Kelley and Secretary L. A. Lydiard, of the Minneapolis base ball club, who were cited to appear be fore the board of directors of the American Association to show cause why they should not be expelled for their alleged connection with the charges against Umpire Clarence Owens, who -was accused of wagering money on the Minneapolis-Columbus series played in Minneapolis several weeks ago, and who was later acquitted, was by the directors referred to the national base ball com m mission. Tickets for the Itryan Reception. New York, Aug. 23. Tickets to the reception for William J. Bryan in Madison Square Garden Aug. 30, as allotted to the various state delegations, have been issued by the reception committee. These tickets are for reserved seats, and number 2,500. Tammany Hall will receive 7,500 tickets of admission to the garden but these do not entitle the holders to reserved seats. Fraternities to Amalgamate, Detroit, Aug. 23. The Associated Fraternities of America, which is holding its annual convention in this city, has unanimously adopted the plan for the amalgamation of the organization with the National Fraternal Congress, under the name of the International Fraternal Congress. Tennessee Indorsement for Bryan. Nashville. Tenn., Aug. 23. The Democratic state committee adopted a resolution indorsing William J. Krynn for the Democratic nomination for president in P.OS. Jackion In Tr inrup'h. After the battle of New Orleans, says Thomas E. Watson in his magazine, when the victor had been crowned with laurel iu the cathedral and acclaimed like a demigod through the streets, it was of his mother that he spoke to the officers whom he was about to disband their glorious work being done. "Gentlemen, if only she could have lived to see this day!" As yon follow the narrative of Andrew Jackson's career, you will hear him say many things that you will not approve, will see him do many things which you cannot applaud, but when you recall that at the very top notch of his success and his pride his heart stayed in the right place aud was sore because his mother could not be there to gladden her old eyes with the glory of her son you will forgive him much in his life that was harsh and cruel and utterly wrong.

Monroe Doctrine And its Many Fallacies

By Professor ARTHUR M. WHEELER of Yl H k Monroe doctrine, which is the eleventh commandment of this government, is the embodiment of XATIOXAL GREED AND SELFISHNESS. A recent secretary of

state i3 quoted a3 saying that this government, in foreign affairs, was run on a principle that was a combination of the Golden Rule and the Monroe doctrine. The man that can associate the two or assimilate them must be a wonderful scientist and mathematician. We have followed this Monroe doctrine as our main political principle on the plausible theory that we should carry our ideas of government to all nations. In following out this doctrine we have been carried away with the theory that our particular form of government was fitted for every nation IN EVERY STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT, and no more crazy illusion ever entered a man's mind. A republican form of government is the worst possible for certain nations, but we have been advancing the fallacy of forcing this on others. If it is such a desirable and successful form of government, why not leave it TO EXAMPLE to spread it to other nations? ! A3 A NATION WE THINK WE MUST ALSO ADVANCE OUR RELIGION THE CHRISTIAN RELIGION EVEN IF IT TAKES GUNBOATS TO DO IT AND IT HAS TO BE SPREAD AT THE POINT OF THE BAYONET.

Birtl Sonars. Naturalists have long been puzzled as to how birds learn to sing. Does it come natural to a bird of a certain species to sing the song common to its kind or does it learn to imitate whatever song it most hears during the early days of its life? Experiments made bv a well known student of bird life proved that most birds simply learn by imitation. He placed young linnets to be reared by skylarks, woodiarks, titlarks and other breeds, and in every case the linnet learned the song of his fostjr parents. Agr.iu. a number of linnets were reared where they had no chance of hearing the song of any bird at all. In due course they began to sicg, but their song was entirely original. The cuckoo, however, seetn3 to be an exception, for although it is almost invariably reared by foster parents of any species but it3 own.

j it always sings to perfection its own peculiar song, quite uninfluenced by the vocal efforts of its guardians. Times subscribers not receiving their papers properly will confer a favor on us by calling Telephone 111 and tellin: ig us. A Q
