CLEANING HAVANA.
Uncle Sam has been to hlaJCuban wards,
if nothing more, at leait a cleanly old fel
low with soap and mop. Two pictures o(
Colon Park, Havana, in the National Geo
graphy Magazine, one squalid, the other
beautiful,, are unlike enough to suggest the.
famous saying of Hamlet to his mother.
The Cubans did not like their new uncle's
house-cleaning process. What was good
enough for them once was good enough al
ways. But they bad to stand bis scrub
bing like rebellious children having their
faces washed, while he cleaned their city
inside and out with thirty-three thousand
galUms of disinfectant dully, out the weeds
out of their parks, built a wall along the
Bea, making a flue promenade, swept from
their streets the accumulated filth of years,
and built new pavements.
Now that the worn is nearly done the
Cuba ire. are beginning to take pride in their
city, and, growing in civic Bptrlt, the vital
text-words of our President are likely to
keep up the work that others have started
for them, and make theit city one of the
most attractive wiuter resorts iu the world.
