1 r Climate of Cuba. From tne Jacksonville, Fla. Times. The friends of oar soldiers bow en route to Cab, end of the other about to to, need not be concerned about tbem. to far aa the climate ia con cerned. Whatever la to he said of the nnhealtliineaa of certain parts of the island, the temperature i not great! different from that of the Gulf Coast o the United States, and the rainfall is paralleled in Florida ia summer, o in Southern California in winter. . Tke first the temperature. The av erage summer temperature of Havanna by months, compares ae follows with that of New Orleans: New Moo'h. Havana. -"' Orleans Mav .78.8 76 Ju ... ......... ..81 5 80.3 July 82.4 82.4 August.....'..' 82.2 81.5 September........ 80.7 78.3 The average July temperature ot Ha van ia thus precisely the tame as that ot New Orleans, and the average temperature of each of the other tain- mer months is not enough higher in Hvna than in New Orleans for nny one to discover the difference. The! highest temperature recorded in- Hat van in the ten jeara ISSS-W w 00.6 degrees, and 100 degreei , was passed only this once. , We aQ know that several hundred thousand . American citisens live through the summer in New Orleans withonfmakiog any . fun about it, and so far aa the heat is con cerned, they do thd" same in Cuba; Santiago de Cub is little warmer than Havana, but not enough warmer to be troubled by the excess. The ayer- - age annual temperature of Havana it 77 degrees. From the meager data available the annual mean of Santiago ia 80 degrees, with an average' difference between the warmest and the coldest m ont of only 6 degrees. The Cuban rainfall is greatest In. Oc tober, and next greatest in June. July and August show a let-up from the June precipitation. A Government report saye that the "general character at the rainiall appears to be heavy downpours ot tboit duration, and this is particularly the case daring the summer months.' Moreover, "the raine, although copious, are o! short duration, and those dajs on which showers fall are, in genaral, perfectly ckndUasw This description is almost a pet feet picture of Los An i , geles in December and January. . and is suggestive of typical July and. August .- conditions In Jacksonville. Our Splendid National Credit. The Govercment is borrowing $200, 000,000 with which to prosecute the war. This means an interest charge of only $6, 000,000 a year a mere bagatelle to a nation so rich as this Republic is. All this money Is offiered to the Gov ernment five times over. The people offer practically all of it jn small sube eriptiens of foCO or less. Backs offer it n practicall any terms that the Govern ment may make, and one New York bank has offered to take the whole loan anddistribnle it among the people with out any fee or charge or reward of any There was never a more splendid national credit than this. And when we ask why, the answer is ready. At tbt end of the civil war the nation owed nearly f S.OOO.OOO.OCO and it had a terri bly depreciated currency. It baa since enormously reduced taxation and baa so rapidly paid off its' obligations that its b t a- ' debt on Nov. 1 1897, was only $847 305,560. . r Only once in all those years was there a thought' of increasing the bonded debt without a war neceesitv, yet even with that increase of $163, 030, 000, during Cleveland's time the interest-bearing debt of the country has been reduced to ono-tbfrd of what it was. , It ia the man who pays bis debts thai enjoys abundant credit. It is precisely the same with nation.; Curious Facts. In Hamburg the authorities tax a dim according to hi sise."
