Santiago de Cuba.
J. V, Lesciiger, a coiuuisicial travel
er, who spent several years iu Santiago,
gave a very good description ol ths sur
rounding country today.
"Oceans, mouulalus, islands, bays and
towe ring headlands," said he, "combine
to make Santiago one of the grandest
natural peuorauiaa In Ihe world, lie
hind the city itself, '.lying al Ibe end of a
land locked hartor, rise Mouut Tur
Muiuo, the highest point of the Sierra
Maestra aud ol Cuba, The Cubans
fairly worship this imperial pesk, which
rises lo a .height of 3780 feet, and call il
La MonUnitla.
"Approaching from the sea, it is seen
rising from the shear high coast, with Us
fringing scarlet-uiiugtiug woods ol cau
tus and cedrila, edged around tho river
mouth by Hats steaming in mists. Tbe
blazing sun plaving upon these lowlauds
seems fairly to make the place reek with
heat and elsatu.
"I I was in the woods of cactus, where
our troops made such a stem resist
ance. The bold, jutting headlands make
the city doubly fort 1 tied, and properly
defended ia one of Jbe hardest places in
the world (or au .army to take. Just
cuough Amuricau soldiers to man the
forta would hold the place against the
combiued armies ol all natious. Had
the positions ol the contending forces
beeu reversed a (sw days since, there
would have been a ditl'eieut tale to tell.
In that case the Spanish dead would
have strewu the ground along the whole
city frout.
"No town or harbor was lo be seen
when I was there, only upou ttie right a
stained, weather-beaten fort. Morro
castle, whose embrasures and casements
cost 10,000,000, and couullesa lives of
Indisu and Negro slaves. Standing
there at the mouth of the smiling but
vet unseen baibor, il represent iu
aspect and biU'i v the etei u, cruel dee
potism that has ever stood between
Spanish colonits and liberty aud ecu-
tentmeut.
"The channel that leads lo the bay is
wiuding and jaiigod shored. The outer
harbor is broad and well protected.
The city itself ia lucklessly heaulilul."

Dr. S. C. Stanton, who has charge of

sation among the medical men by de
daring that a habitual rider of bicycles
or a scorcher, is unfit physically to serve
as a soldier in the army. He has made
this matter Ihe subject of bis severest
