New Yokk, May 2S. A special to tbe
Woild from Key West says:
A Cuban hospital near Matrua, Ha
vana province, was attacked by Spanish j
guerillas. The insurgents were inform- J
ed of their approach, and, as some of the j
wounded could not be moved, those able '
to get about fortified the building, which
is of stone, as well as they could.
When the guerillas demanded the Eur-
render oi the place the inmates replied
with a volley, killing five Spaniards.
The soldiers then eet fire to the wooden
portion of the building, but tbe stone
part remained intact, and the besieged
made such a valiant fight that tbe enemy
finally retreated.
Sixteen guerillas raided a camp of pa
cificos in Mantanaz province and carried
off seven women. One day one of the
women managed to secure some kind of
poison, which was put in the food kettles
of the band, and every guerilla died in
agnny.

Says the Herald :
Colonel Charles Gordon disembarked
in Cuba last June, and was soon pro

astonished both the Spanish and the
Cubans. He crossed the trocha and

bravery in tbe field, and thought so much
of him that he was selected as one of the
lew to cross the trocha in hie company.
