SPEAKING OF HEROES.

Whil« we're givin our attention th* heroes o* th' earth An a-booetin some t' glory every day Let us not contract th' idee that th' men o' greatest worth

Are th' men whose deeds consist o' great display. War's produced some mighty heroes who bare left a good Impress

An are worshiped by th' men o' every clime. But when talkin o' real heroes let us honestly confess

They're the men who keep a-hustlin all th' time.

Let ns not annex th' idee that a hero's born o' war, For th' greatest heroes never fought a fight. An th' men who done most fightin you'll find they mostly are

Th' fellows that were seldom in th' right. No, th' very greatest heroes that the roll o' hiat'ry fills

Ain't had their deeds o* worth writ up in rhyme. They're the heroes o* th' workshops, o' th' farms an o' th' mills—

They're th' heroes that keep hustlin all th* time.

Toil can talk o' martial heroes till th' toot o' Gabriel's horn An declaim about your statesmen till yoa're hoarse, But they ain't th' biggest heroes that into th' world wan born,

For, compared with some, their work is mighty coarse. Th* real heroes wear no tokens but th' blisters on their ban's.

They're th' toilers that aboun* in every clime. They're the very bone an sinoo o' all times an o' all lan'fl—

They're th'men who keep a-bustlin all th' time. —Omaha World-Herald.

TRUTH FOR ONCE.

"Maldito Spaniards!" said my friend, Don .Tuan, editor of a Cuban newspaper called El Heraldo. "The rule of the government over its subjects is unjust and wicked. There is absolutely no liberty of the press."

I looked up. "And what of ajl that?" I asked. "And what of all that?" ho repeated. "We shall bo forced to cease publication," and he came over and whispered to me, "The censor has suppressed every column of tomorrow's paper but tho advertisements."

That was truly a serious situation. It was a difficulty that seemed insurmountable by even a man like Don Juan with his indomitable will and resistless energy. Ho was sittiug at the editorial table. Before him was a budget of interesting material, news direct from the camp of the insurgents and many other items—all streaked with the censor's red pencil. During the past two months I had beon assisting him, as the staff had been considerably depleted by a call for volunteers by the rebel army.

Tho weather was oppressively hot Tho heat steamed through the huge doors and windows which were thrown wide open. We were all dressed in white suits, innocent of course of collars and waistooats. Half naked negro boys waited for copy, but got none. They were inky little impa—ideal printer's dovils. "Wo must fill the space," said the editor, and in a tone of a commander he gave his orders in his native tongue, which, literally translated, meant, "Make a page of the 'Spanish Virtues' and stretch the shark to a column and a half."

Tho latter was in reference to a gigantio shark that had been making frequent visits to tho harbor of late, and at times when tho suppression of our news made us short of material the timely reappearance of the shark could always bo depended upon to fill censorial gaps. 1 did my best with it I had it caught and speared, and I described graphically its death struggle. This same shark had been killed ouco or twice bofore by some reporter—but no matter.

It was dying again in good taste in my hands, and tho "devil" was waiting at my elbow when the localista, or genoral reporter, came in. He was in breathless hasto. He had obtained some important items of tho war. "Tho Spanish soldiers havo made an attack upon the rebels in their stronghold in San The engagement lasted two hours and the loss to tho enemy was great. It was impossible to ascertain tho number killed. The Cubans captured SO prisoners, after which tho Spanish retreated. The matter has been hushed by the military authorities."

I took a note of all this, taking care to leave out all that would be likely to bo disapproved of by his worship, Sen or Perez, who held tho office of censor. "Nevermind that Nov in," Don Juan said to me "we ought to have that just aa it is." "But"— "Anything else?" be said, addressing, the reporter. "Yes. A filibustering expedition, with arms and ammunition, landed last night at a point about three leagues from here. It was not discovered until the supplies bad all been brought cm shore and safely delivered to the agents of the insurgents. Ail efforts to setae the goods have proved ineffectual. The boat has been abandoned and the crew cannot be found. With this re-euforce-meut the Cubans will be fully equipped to resist the attack of the troops recent* iy dispatched to the interior."

Don Juan had a nice little coffee colored nose for news. He wanted to serve Uis readers with this palatable, redhot stuff. He said modestly that it woold make good reading. Besides it was •omething that tickled his great, warm Cuban heart But unless he gave the glory of the victory to the Spaniards this Very desirable rvading matter would never gttm the columns of El Heraldo. And there was one whole blank page to be filled yet! He took off his pauama hat to (**1 his head and drummed his fingers the table. He consumed just two minutes in thinking out And perfecting an ingenious plan.

I will

try

it*'* ho said. "Bush!"

and in leas time than it takes to write he had set every

man

in the office to

work turning out copy of reversible Spanish-Cuban victories. We were lost to sights and soonda. Not even the cry of "Los Nunmnte*!" thai spread wild

alarm among the inhabitants and brought out troops of mounted military, disturbed us.

The material was then given to the printer, for Senor Perez had taken a firm stand. He would read nothing that had not been set up in type, so my friend and I sat down and smoked long cigars while we waited for the proof sheets. There were two kinds that day —the one telling of Cuban victory, the other in similar words gave an account of the defeat of the Cuban foe.

Don Juan spent much time carefully coloring one side of the former with a vermilion preparation all his own, the secret of which he divulged only to me. It was a fine, adhesive substance made from the pollen of a native flower, and when marked left an indelible impres sion. This done, he fitted them neatly and without a crease to proof sheets No. 2, and they were held fast together by the substance between.

And how the Spanish guns boomed through the medium of printers' ink, and how the valiant soldiers captured 20 prisoners and completely routed the rebels and seized every bit of the supplies brought to the country by the filibustered, made np a whole page of glowing material that would have passed muster at the desk of the veriest old Spanish official. But most of all how it all contradicted itself in one and the same copy—which was double—and went over, arms and ammunition, prisoners and all, to the Cubans.

Don Juan took it upon himself to convey the decoy proof sheets to the censor. He would intrust them to no one for fear of discovery. There was no outward sign that would lead to detec tion, but the extra thickness. As we parted he reminded me of something he had told me several times before. "Be careful," he said, much concerned, "remember"— "What?" "That yon are under suspicion of being a correspondent of an American newspaper. You are watched and likely to be arrested at any moment.''

If I had only been one of your despised American correspondents who, next to the Cubans, come in for a good taste of Spanish misrule! It was a position much coveted by me, but as it was I had to be content with only the suspicion.

I thanked Don Juan and warned him in turn. "If that scheme of yours is found out," I said, "you'll be"— "Garroted tomorrow morning at the oastle for conspiracy against the governmentor some other excuse. I know it" He had said exactly what I was going to say. "But I am confident of getting through all right unless something un expected happens For the sake of mak ing a reputation for my paper for giving truthful reports and be done with the contemptible lies we have been printing all along, I will risk it."

I wished him well, but I had my misgivings. As a man with ordinary courage, I would not have carried the thonghts of such things in my mind that he carried in his hand—that is, not in Cuba where there was a daily execution of some one, and damp dun geons yawned for occupants, and I was already under.jtlift watchful eye, of the authorities! 8enor Perez sat at his desk carefully reading and revising the proof sheets of the various newspapers and periodicals published in the town. It was his busiest time anr1 an hour elapsed before he reached the roll marked "El Heraldo." He took it up, examined it skimmed through the contents and then began to read critically. His attention became fixed upon certain reports and he was seen to read them over more than once to make sure that his eyes did not deceivo him. "Where did you get your facts?" he asked. "From a Spanish eyewitness," returns Don Juan, "but they cannot be verified." "They can be verified!" Perez answered, and with a vengeance ho brought his pencil and ran it through an item just below, which, it had been previously calculated, would be disapproved by him. Senor Perez did not know that at that moment he marked double.

With the roll once more in his possession Don Juan departed. I think it quito impossible to describe the feelings of a Cuban who has tricked a Spaniard. The town was in a state of wild excitement

Another alarm that the insurgents were coming had been raised, and soldiers swarmed through the streets and sentinels stood at the corners. Every Cuban was closely watched,-and several arrests were made. Don Juan felt no little anxiety. He put the papers in hip hat and was walking in more haste than was considered proper by the guards, and he was suddenly stopp* by tho challenge: "Who goes there?" "Spain," was the quick response. "What kind of people?" "Inoffensive."

And back to the office he came with the precious proof sheets, where they were separated, and lo! there they were, two copies marked exactly alike. The original with the red backs were very wisely destroyed. The contents of the other came out in El Heraldo the next day. Cuban victory never looked more glorious in print than when embellished with the tracings of the censor's pencil—or its counterfeit

That little affair stirred up the whole Judicial system. El Heraldo was promptly laid before the authorities and read. Surprise traveled downward from the governor, through the clerks to the next official, and so on down to the humble Cuban who lounged in the tropical sun and wondered how Don Juan ever dared.

I remained long enough in the office to mid the paper, and then wait out to the landing of the filibuster expedition as the Coban reporters had been debarred from obtaining any news. My trip took me into thickets in which I lost my way several times, and it was late be­

fore I returned. I was in possession of news that I felt rare would make another startling sensation when it ap* peared in print

But I never reached the office that day nor since. The inevitable happened. I was walking along the Plaza de Anratft "Senor Don Charles NeviV' said the officer, "I arrest you."

Of course I asked for what, and he told me that the government had discovered that I was an American correspondent (I denied the

He drew away from me disdainfully while I made a respectful bow, standing with my heels together and walking backward, as I had seen the Spanish dignitaries do at "court" at the palace. Next in line to the distinction of being an American correspondent was occupying the same cell with Senor Perez. He seemed to think it a reflection upon his dignity to be in my company. "Americano!" he said contemptuously.

I bowed again—this time for my nationality. "I hope that we shall not be together long," I said "that is, I hope I shall be soon released." "You?" he said. "You will get your punishment for your complicity with Don Juan in defying the government and publishing the lies about the soldiers of Spain in El Heraldo." "I, senor? I thought I was to be punished for being an American correspondent. I think it is unfair to arrest a man on one charge and punish him fpr another. "f "Do not worry," he answered, with a malicious smile, "you shall have all the law allows for both in due time."

That was a wicked witticism. Subsequently I learned he had been confined in jail pending an investigation, as he was under suspicion of having approved of the "lies" that had appeared in the paper. I was much concerned about Don Juan. "And what of the editor?" I asked cautiously. "The Spanish government deals very promptly," was the reply. "Ybien?" "And well, then? He is probably on his way to the castle now!" "You mean that he is going to his death?" I gasped. "Yes, certainly."

I could not restrain myself. Exoited beyond all reason, I made a wild rush for'the door in an attempt to break from the cell and make an effort at least to save the life of my friend, all of which, had I succeeded, would have been utter folly on my part. 'x

At that moment several imperious officials appeared bearing certain proof sheets. They were shown to SenorJ Perez, and he examined them. He had held them in his hands before, but he was not aware of it. Op to that time he had remained steadfast in the assertion that the editor had ignored his suppression of the reports. He was certain he had suppressed them. He could not see how in his loyalty to his sovereign, ho could have done otherwise. Here" was tho evidence that he had" not here, were his own marks of approval here were exaotly tho same words he had read, only of course as they read now the subject matter was reversed. Sent# Peroz stood amazed. "Are these your marks?" he was asked.

Senor Perez hesitated. To save himself there was only one answer that he could give. "No," he replied. "The whole thing is a forgery."

It was a vital moment The astonished officials stared at him and then ai' me and from me back to him again. I returned their gaze with an air of indifference, but I was not sure of my countenance. I was afraid some little look would reveal the fact that I knew more than 1 cared to tell about the affair. But fortunately the uncertainty that I felt concerning my own fate left a blank expression in my face. After many more questions the officials took their departure quite satisfied with their investigation and fully determined to bring to instice the Cubans who had dared to forge the censor's pencilings.

I was a passenger on board the first mail steamer that left port after my arrest and my next item of news for the Cuban paper were sent from America.

But Don Juan bad long since joined the rebels. That is the story how El Heraldo published the truth for once and then died a glorious death.—Josephine Voss in Detroit News-Tribune.

Span tali Kaighta Looted by the Irish.

The Century has an article on "The Spanish Armada," written by William Frederic Til ton. An introduction is furnished by Captain Alfred T. Mahan. Mr. Til ton says:

The huge Venetian Trinidad Valencera, having sprung a desperate leak, ran for the Irish coast and soon found herself off O'Dogherty's country, perhaps in Lough Swilly. Part of the crew swam ashore others huddled into an old leaky ship's boat A native rowed lout toward them, and being promised a bagful of duoats and jewels helped land those in the leaky boat while another (Irishman, bent on richer spoil and heedless of the cries for help, rowed straight for the wreck, which went down while he was looting in the hold. No sooner had the Spaniards got ashore than "wild people," and even the queen's soldiers, fell upon them, robbing them of their "money, gold buttons, rapiers and apparel" and slaughtering numbers of them in cold blood. But one of the O'Donnells came to the rescue, had a great fire built for some of the officers and seemed to "pity their case, especially O'Donnell's wife."

One of these officers tells how he was lodged in the cabin of a fellow who sold ale and aqua vita) and was ruffling it in a stolen "red cloak with buttons of gold." In the night he robbed his guest Of 200 ducats, and the officer heard him "beat out barrels' heads and fill them with plate, money and jewels." The Spaniards, having saved no provisions, were forced to buy a few •wretched horses, "which they killed and did eat and some small quantity of butter that the common people brought also to selL''

Village Cousin (showing his city relative around the hamlet) That quiet, harmless looking man on the opposite side of the street is a member of the church and one of the most public spirited, kind hearted and charitable men in the whole community, and yet he is the hardest hated and most industriously despised person in the village.

City Cousin—How does that come about? Village Cousin—Why, you see, he has kept a diary continuously since 1871, conscientiously and methodically jotting down from time to time all the important and unimportant happenings, episodes and inoidents in our village life, marriages, births, the state of the weather, condition of the orops, what So-and-so paid for such and such a house, and so on and so forth, including the gist of everybody's political utterances. And whenever the revered oldest inhabitant says that this is the coldest, hottest wettest or driest season in ten years, or a lady makes an assertion regarding her age, or some one declares he paid a certain sum for his property, or a local politician cries out that he always worked for the success of some particular party and never scratch ed his ticket, the man with the diary 'pulls out his little book and calmly oalls them down, as if it was his bound en duty to do so.—Boston Journal.

vJ/J Morals and the Stage.

Mr Albert Chevalier, the famous "coster" impersonator, was once the recipient of a letter from a gentleman who had heard him sing his famous song, "My Old Dutch." The correspondent wrote that when he entered the theater that night he had intended to become divorced from his wife, owing to constant disagreements and troubles with her, but. the song so affected him that he resolved to do nothing, of the sort, but to make an effort toward a newer and better life. Mr. .Chevalier stated that the note evidently came from an educated man, and he had every belief in its genuineness,

When Hawthorne's celebrated "Scarlet Letter" was being performed, a .young man wrote a very impressive letter to the management "I entered the .theater last night," he said, "with a very great sin in contemplation. I need not gtf into details, but it will suffice to say that the deed I had in my mind Would have ruined a home in this city. But when the play was over I saw only too clearly how terrible are the consequences of sin, and I thank God that I can now affirm that I have put it out of my mind forever."—London Standard.

Saluting the President.

Decidedly, this matter of the Spanish war is improving our manners. I think that once we have grown used to hearing national airs every evening at the theater and to standing while they are playing, we shall keep up the custom, war or no war, as we ought I have observed, too, of late that when the presi dent drives out 20 men lift their hats to him where five performed that act of courtesy three months ago. I have heard so many foreigners complain of our lack of deference to the chief executive, because wo^lo not salute him when he appears. It is hard to make them understand that our seeming indifference is merely a way we have, and I hope it's away we aren't going to have much longer.—Washington Post

Ran For Governor.

General Lee has been handicapped by a great name. It has stimulated his pride and ambition, but it has not inspired any vanity. When I asked him if this heritage had helped or hindered him, he said: "It has been a heavy load. I have had the reputation of a lot of anoestors as well as my own to look after. Whatever good I have done has been credited to them, and whatever of evil has been charged to me and magnified, because people said they had a'right to expect much better things of a man of my blood and breeding. "When I was running for governor of Virginia, John Wise said that if my name had been Fitz-Hugh Smith I never would have secured the nomination. I replied that I had known a good many good men named Smith and would have been as proud of that name as of the one I wore. In that way I got the votes of all the Smiths in Virginia and a letter from a man who told me 'never to forget Captain John Smith, our first settler, who killed Pocahontas.'"— Chap Book.

The Famous Damascus Sword. It is but seldom that a real good specimen of the Damascus sword can be obtained, for the art of working and engraving this kind of steel is dead. These swords are made of alternate lay ers of iron and steel, so finely tempered that the blade would bend to the hilt without breaking. The weapons had edges so keen that no coat of mail could resist them and surfaces so highly pol ished that when a Moslem wished to rearrange his turban he used his sword for a looking glass.
