It _ is ______ nearly ninety since Cuba and Porto Rico are freed, will have resulted in the abolition of Spanish rule in the western hemisphere. The brave Argentinians under Sun Martin began the- conflict in 1809, anil the Mexicans followed a few mouths later. Both ........ were unsuccessful at the tieginning, but suddenly all South America broke out in one blaze of revolution that was not to be finally extinguished until Spain had been driven from the continent. The natives welcomed the chance to secure their freedom. When once the torch of liberty had been lighted so great n fire was kind.ed that it could not be extinguished. These revolutions were popular uprisings. The rich had no sympathy with them. The land-owning and governing elutes, the army and navy, the few who profited by the sufferings of the many, bail no sympathy with the uprisings. The insurgents were an undisciplined rabble, whose volunteer leaders were forced to create an army from poor material and with no arms or equipments. At first they were organized in scattered bands that attacked the fortifications'of the Spanish army. Little by little they were welded into a compact army by the genius of their leaders. These leaders revealed great ability, and to the people of South America their names are as dear as is that of Wash ington to us of North America. Some of them distiugulslted themselves so great'.y as to make their fame world-wide. Such was O'Higgins in Chili, Bolivar in Venezuela and Central America, Sucre In Bolivia and Peru. Hidalgo in Mexico and San Martin in Argentina. They sacrifice«] much for the cause. Several were men of large private fortunes who gave all that they possessed as a sacrifice on the altar of liberty. Born rich, O'Higgins, Bolivar and Sucre diet) jxsir. They risked their lives as well ns their money, and thousand« of other men. now forgotten, died that their country might lie free. Their republics were just ns ungrateful as all republics are traditionally. Hidalgo was killed by the Spanish. The other great tnen had a worse fate, being traduced and vilified by their compatriots who, at first profusely grateful, afterward yielded to the jealousy of rival leaders. It was not until after their death that their compatriots appreciated their greatness. l*roo- ably the same fate is in store for Gomez. A NSECT FOES IN CUBA.

In the neigh borhood of woods It is present in such terrible swarms that It Is impossible to sleep without some preisiratlon smear ed on hands and face. There Is also the Jejene, or Culwui flea, which is extreme ly unpleasant and even dangerous.be- cause it seeks to enter the eyes during sleep. Horses and cattle suffer terri bly from the attacks of the jejene on their eyelids. Cuba also harbors the chigoe, or jig- gar flea. The female of this insect has i habit of burrowing into human flesh »nd there laying an enormous mass of >ggs. The wounds made by this Insect, if neglected, will produce a dangerous ulceration. As they attack by prefer ence the big toe, they are apt to cause lameness. The scorpion Is another Cuban product. This reptile has twelve feet and Is from five to six Inches long. It terminates in a long tall, which con tains the sting. This causes a severe wound, possibly a fatal one to a man in Ill-health. He who entertains a scor pion unaware« will know what It is to tears a thankless child.
