Don Rafael Alsina lii'es in fine
style in an ancient palace in the _ >p
ular ’Friar" quarter in Seville. Witu
the old palace he inherited a large
fortune. This he has more than trou¬
bled by a devotion to business which
is —ceedingly rare in Spain, where
the general rule of life is, “Never
<io to-day what you can put off doing
until to-morrow.” His pet hobby,
aside from making money, has been
giving it away. He is honored far
and wide in Seville for his charity.
One morning early in May last,
two pretty girls, Paquita Vasquez and
Jtosina Ortiz, called upon him. “We
are laundry girls,” said Paquita,
“and knowing you to be rich and
charitable, we have conn to ask you
to do something for one of our fel
low workers—a poor widow with six
children, Avho lives in a wretched gar- !
ret.”
“I shall send her 200 pesetas ($40)
to-day,” said Don Alsina, “but why
did not the poor Avidow come herself
to get help from me? It is well
known that I am always accessible to
any deserving poor person who is in
need of assistance.”
“Our poor friend,” answered Pa
«piita, “is old and—and she has lost
all her good looks, senor.”
“But I never withhold my aims
from people because the intimities of
age have robbed them of their good
looks,” said Don Alsina. “There
must be some other reason why she
did not call herself.”
The girls giggled and exchanged
glances. “The truth is,” said Rosita,
“our poor friend thought she Avould
get more from you if we told you her
story, because Ave, so our friends say,
■are—are rather pretty, senor.”
Don Alsina laughed and the girls
blushed. “The Avidow shows,” he
said, “that if age has deprived her of
beauty, it has increased her wisdom.
I shall send her 300 pesetas. Now
what can I do for her charming
representatives in whose selection
she has shown such excellent judg¬
ment?”
“We leave that to your oAvn gen
■eresity, senor,” said Paquita; “we
laundress gins are all very poor and
iwe work very hard.”
“And are there among these laun¬
dresses Avho Avork so hard for such
small pay more girls who are as pret¬
ty as you tAvo are?”
“Yes, senor,” answered Rosita;
■“there are some Avho are much pret¬
tier—at least, so their sweethearts
chink.”
“I fear I should hardly agree with
their sweethearts,” said Don Alsina,
gallantly, “but I will tell you what I
■will do. Yesterday I bought a ticket
in the national lottery, the drawing
for which takes place next week.
The number of my ticket is 1807. I
am reputed to be a very lucky man.
Send me the names of the five pret
ttimt. laundresses in our quarter, and
if my ticket Avins the grand prize,
125,000 pesetas ($5000), I promise
to divide it among them. Whatever
tprize 1 win—if I win any — the
money shall be given to them.”
The .r e girls elected were Manu¬
ela Pinedo, Rosita Ortiz, Paquita Y'az
cjuez, acarnacian Garcia and Lola
Fernandez, and every night until the
■drawing took place these fi\ r e gilds
prayed -'evoutly that the ticket beai
ing the number 1807 might win the
.grand prize.
Ticket No. 1S07 won the grand
prize, and Don Alsina at once sent
for the happy laundresses and re¬
ceived the in his finest apartments,
where he made a pretty speech, de¬
claring that no-revent in his life had
ever afforded him so much pleasure
and that he xvas fully prepared to
abide by his promise and divide the
250,000 pesetas among the five pret
iy girls.
'“Oh, you angel!” exclaimel the
buxom Lola, and, greatly darirg,
threw her arms around him and
kissed him. Don Alsina said some
thing that is the Spanish equivalent
of “next,” and each of the oHier four
pretty girls in turn followed suit.
“Such a delightful experience
makes me wonder how it has hap
period that I have so long remained
t:,”
P: Spain —‘rsrs forbid polygamy, I cannot
marry all five of you. I can only
marry one of you. To make choice
of that one myself is a task far be
yond me . With your consent 1 pro
pose to have recourse to a lottery
again to settle the matter. Does
-each one of you agree that, she will
accept me as a husband for better or
STorse. if she draws me?”
“Yes, senor,” answered the five
girls in chorus.
Don Alsina inscribed his name on
a slip of paper and folded it up. He
took four similar slips that were
blank and folded them up. Then he
deposited all five papers in a hat.
“Now,” he said, "the one of the
five best and most beautiful girls in
Seville who draws from this nat the
slip of paper on which my name is
written wins me for a husband.”
Encarnacian stopped forward first,
thrust her hand into the hat held by
Don Alsina, drew forth a slip of
paper and unrolled it. It was blank.
She did her best to look as if she did
not care much, hut it was a poor
make-believe.
“ ‘L’ co-mes next," said Don Alsina,
unmoved. “It’s your turn, Lola.”
Lola drew another blank and could
hardly repress her tears.
“ ‘M’ follows ‘L,’ ” said Don Al
sina. “Now, Manuela, try your
luck.”
Luck declared for Manuela. g be
drew the slip of paper on which Don
1
felicitated the bridegroom-elect, who
had so expeditiously and adroitly
solved such au embarrassing matri
monial problem. But, somehow,
Manuela did not seem so ecstatically
happy at the prospect of abandoning
the life of a laundry girl for the lux
ury of a palace warranted. Don Al
sina did not appear to notice it, how
ever.
“I ask you all to be my guests at
lunch,” he said, “and while that is
being prepared, I will shoAV you 0A r er
my bouse.”
While tney Avere passing through
Don Alsina’s stables, in which tnere
Avere three carriages and two automo¬
biles, Manuela drew him aside.
< i I have a confession to make,
senor,” she said. “I like you A r erv
much, but as your wife I fear I
should never make you as happy as
you deserve. Notwithstanding all
that my parents told you, I assure
you my disposition is not suite.', to
the domestic life. I like too much to
be on the go. Will you not give me
one of your automobiles instead of
marrying me? Rosita will make you
a far better wife than I should, and
I am sure she will gladly marry you.”
The accommodating Don Alsina
readily agreed. It was a matter of
indifference to him which of the five
girls he married. He had treated
matrimony as a lottery and Avas will
ing to take his chances. Rosita
gladly consented to take Manuela’s
place as his affianced bride. Two
Aveeks later they Avere married, and
after a honeymoon trip through Italy
they returned to Don Alsina’s pal
ace, where, according to their friends,
they were perfectly happy.—Detroit;

about 20,000 square yards in size,

Sound, a famous summer resort three

CUBANS BADLY SCARED.
Threat of Intervention Causes Palma
to Issue Peace Decree—Roose¬
velt's Letter Sole Topic.
The great topic of conversation to
I he exclusion of everything else in
Havana Saturday was President Roose¬
velt's letter regarding the situation.
President Palma declined to be inter¬
viewed. on the subject, but it is known
that he has every confidence of a
■ square deal.”
Commander Colwell cabled the navy
department that the revolution lead
I ms assured him that they had ceased
hostilities and again offered to bring
him their arm 5, etc., and disband their
forces. Commander Coiwell stated
he belie.'eil that he could., if au¬
thorized, end the insurrection at
once. Up to Sunday night, however, no
instructions in this coyincction had been
rcCeived . The commander also report
f toth : d rsT nUhatn dC ti
for peace had been opened with the
j nevemme - t. and that ne believed ^u
end of o trouble would result. He
added that he Avas informed constantly
as to the attitude of the revolutionary
leaders.
in an open letter, Alfredo Zayas,
president of the liberal party, offers
on behalf of the liberals to negotiate
peace on the basis that Senor Palma
slit'll continue as president; that two
of the cabinet ministers shall be mem
fctrs of the liberal party; that the
municipal officers removed last year
“hall be restored; that the electoral
laws shall be revised and that new
elections of senators and represents
tives shall be held, and also elections
of governors and provincial officers to
W vacancies of those removed
last December. Senor Zayas says that
the revolutionists haA-e suspected all
the time that peace parleying was
going on; that the government was ex
peeling help from the United States.
Three American warships are the
most imposing and interesting objects

designedly, yet pointedly, is typical of
tiie fact that it is the intention cf
the United States to take a hand in

of bringing order out of the present

The Ago of Machinery.
We live in the age of machinery.
The thinking, directing mind be
| comes daily of more account, while
mere brawn falls correspondingly in
value from day to day. That eccen
trie philosopher, Elbert Hubbard,
says in one of his escavs, “Where a
machine will do better work than the
human hand, we prefer to let the ma¬
chine do the work.”
It has been hut a few years since
the cotton gin, the “spinning jenny”
and the power loom displaced the
hand picker, the spinning wheel and
the hand loom; since the reaper and
hinder, the rake and tedder, the
mowing machine took the place of
the old cradle, scythe, pitchfork and
hand rake; since the friction match
superseded the hint and tinder; since
the modern paint factory replaced
the slab and muller, the paint pot
and paddle.
In every case where machinery has
been introduced to replace hand la¬
i bor, the laborers have resisted the
change; and as the weavers, the
sempstresses, and the farm laborers
protested against new-fangled looms,
sewing machines and agricultural
implements, so in more recent times
, compositors have protested against
■■ typesetting machines, glass blowers
against bottle-blowing machines, and
painters against ready mixed paints.
And as in the case of these short¬
sighted classes of an earlier day, so
Avith their imitators of to-day, the
protest will be in vain. It is a pro¬
test against civilization, against the
common weal, against their own wel¬
fare.
The history of all mechanical im¬
provements shows that workmen are
the first to be benefited by them.
The invention of the sewing machine,
instead of throwing thousands of
women out of employment, increased
the demand to such an extent that
thousands of women have been em¬
ployed, at batter Avages, for shorter
hours and easier work where hun¬
dreds before worked in laborious
misery to eke out a pitiable exist¬
ence. It was so Avilh spinning and
weaving machinery, with agricultural
implements—in fact, it is so with
every notable improvement, The
multiplication of books in the last
decade is a direct result of the in
vention of linotype machinery and
fast presses.
The mixed paint industry, in which
carefully designed paints for house
painting are prepared on a large
scale by special machinery, is an¬
other improvement of the saffie type.
The cheapness and general excellence
of these products has so stimulated
the consumption of paint that the de¬
mand for the services of painters
has correspondingly multiplied. Be¬
fore the advent of these goods a
well-painted house was noticeable
from its rarity, whereas to-day an ill
painted house is conspicuous.
Nevertheless the painters, ns a
rule, following the example set by
the weavers, the sempstresses and
the fankn laborers of old, almost to a
man, oppose the improvement, it
is a real improvement, however, and
simply because of that fact the sale
of such products has increased until
during the present year it will fall
not far short of 90,000,000 or 100,
000,000 gallons.
Hindsight is always better than
foresight, and most of us who de¬
plore the short-sightedness of our an
cestors would do well to see that Ave
do not in turn furnish “terrible ex¬
amples” to our posterity.
P. G.
THE HORSE OF YORE.
Was Thirty Feet In Height and Was
Hard to Mount.
Out in "Wyoming a lot of scientific
grubbers have unearthed the fossil re
mains of a horse thirty feet long and
more than thirty feet high. The grub¬
bers seem to have pieced the horse to¬
gether without in ny comment, and
they don’t offer a word of information
concerning either his genealogy or his
track record.
A horse thirty feet long would ap¬
pear to be a lot of horse. If he be¬
longed to the cave man the latter
certainly had his hands full. A horse
so tall that a thirty foot ladder be¬
came necessary when his bridle was
to be put on, might well be called
the pride of the stable—although no
ordinary stable would begin to accom
medate him. If the cave man hadn’t
any ladder, and couldn’t borrow one.
the next best thing was to climb a
tree. Then try to imagine him shin¬
ning up a tall palm with the heavy
bridle on his back, only to find wnen
be attained the right altitude that the
horse had moved beyond reach and
was peacefully browsing on the tall
grass of the jungle!
Of course a thirty-foot horse could
be expected to cover much more
ground than the ordinary animal of
the same breed—even at a walk. And
if he took it Into his head to work
his way across lots there would ap¬
pear to be nothing to impede him.
Fences would go down before him like
stubble, and a merely playful cavort
would carry him over raging torrents.
When a thirty-foot horse shied at a
tit of white paper in the roadway the
chances are that he jumped clear
“T As a war ? horse Mt ' ounly the thirty-footer
must have been a startler. When he
let out a neigh the enemy fled in
blind and unreasoning terror. When
he champed his bit and pawed the
ground, the very hill shuttered. When
he switched his tail the hireling foe
Iel * * bo " t 1,ke ^Poned grain.
And then think of the nightmare
that could be expected to follow the
first sight of this prodigious equine!
He certainly was a wonder. It is a
great pity we know so little about him,
