Havana, Aug. 22.—The rebel forces
are reported to have scored their first
victory shortly before daylight tills
morning, when a force under Pino
Guerra attacked the rurales’ outposts
nt Plnar del Rio and drove them back
toward the city.
The Insurgents did not follow up
their advantage, as they are reported
to he awaiting reinforcements,

of loyal troops nt Plnar del Rio Is ex
pected nt any hour.

Havana, Aug. 22.—With General Jose
Miguel Gomes, believed to be the head
of the revolutionary movement, under
arrest and General Quenten Banderas
defeated at Hoye Colorado after a hard
fight and reported to be surrounded,
the government takes a rosier view of
the situation, and Is confident of Its
ability to stamp nut the revolution.
In the meantime, however, the revolt
la spreading, and fighting la reported In
widely separated districts.
The town of Catalina, near Quines. 40
...lies from Havana, has been captured
by the rebels and alarm la felt In, the
capital.
Rural Guards Deserting.
An attack was made In Qulneas by a
smalt force of revolutionists, but they
were repulsed, losing two prisoners and
a number of wounded.
In some sections the rural guards are
deserting and going over to the rebels.
The hardest fighting occurred at
Hoye Colorado, where Banderas made
a desperate attempt to capture the
place, only to meet with as desperate
resistance by the small force of rurales
stationed there, reinforced by the In
habitants of the town. Bnnderaa’ force
was repulsed with considerable loss,
and the report now Is that he is In a
trap, from which he can not escape.
It Is the best opinion that should
Banderas be captured the revolution
will collapse. With him and Juan
Gbalberto Gomes In the hands of the
J iovernment, there will be no recognized
eaders of the negroes In the field.
6,000 Man Arreatad.
Up to the present more ,than 6,000
men have been arrested for complicity
In the plot to overthrow the govern
ment, Including most of the leaders of
the discontented element. Deprived of
their leader. It Is not believed the
rebels can long remain In the field.
The revolt under Pino Guerra Is the
most threatening movement against
the government at present. The rep
resentatives of his strength place the
number of men at his command as
high ns 2,000. He marched across the
province of Plnar del Rio and camped
In-front of the city. It Is his avowed
le to capture the city and make
center of the revolution. Active
measures are being taken to foil the
attempt.
Rebels Have Dynamite.
Troqps are being sent as rapidly as
possible to reinforce Colonel Avalos,
In command at Plnar del Rio. Rush
orders have been sent to the United
8tates for horses and munitions of war
for the new troops.
Troop trains have arrived here from
the east and have transferred 100 men
and horses to the Western railroad,
and these were rushed to the city of
Plnnr del Rio. Eleven cats were drop,
ped at various points In Santa Clara
Matanzas and Havana provinces.
The Insurgents are well armed, hav
ing much dynamite. Ex-Governor
Louis Perez, of Plnur del Rio province,
Is with tho Insurgents. A Catholic
priest, San Juan Martlnes, Is out with
the force, having great Influence among
Guerras’ followers, other * Insurgents
surrounding Plnar del.Rio are gradu
ally coming closer, expecting a Junc
tion today from Guanajay.
Colonel Avalos already has had
smart brush with Guerras’ men
which several men w*re killed and
wounded on either side. The report
fighting In Matanzas province Is
given credit.

HOKE SMITH MAN PARADES
STREET ASTRIDE HUGE OX
Astride a huge brlndle ox, with black
rag dolls dangling from saddle bows
and tied to the caudal appendage of
the meek-eypd bovine, J. C. Cox, a
Hoke Smith supporter, paraded the
principal thoroughfares of the city
Wednesday morning.
As the saddled ox swung slow-galted
through Whitehall, East Hunter to
South Pryor, about 9 oclock, a yelling
bunch of small boys, Caucasian and
African, streamed to the rearward, giv
ing voice to various advice and Irrele
vant remarks.
Cox didn't mind. With his spread
ing sugar-loaf straw hat, farmer's garb
and spurred boots, he urged the patient
steed along the sun-baked streets. Now
and then he pointed to the da
rag doll fastened to the steer's ta.
shouted to the crowds lining his t'rl.

"Put the 'hope of the state' where

"Ferglt It, Reuben. Dat steer’s like

exceedingly dirty-faced youngster.
“Wha' fer dat white man got dat

GHARTIER GARRIES THE STATE
BY OVERWHELMING MAJORITY
As a Candidate for the Favor and Patronage of the Peo-

4 derful System of Shorthand, Taught at Bag
well’s Business College, is an Easy Win
ner Over 'All Competitors.

(Signed) BARROW St TARVER.
Expert Stenograph.-
Young men and women from every
section of the state and the South are
headed for Bagwell's Business College
and School of Shorthand to avail them
selves of the splendid opportunities,
never before offered to young people of
this section, to prepare for remunera
tive positions In a few weeks or months
and at a comparatively trifling cost.
Is It True?
The proof Is conclusive that Chartler
shorthand Is superior In every respect
to any of the old systems, and that It
can be learned In ond-half to one-
third the time. Every Intelligent and
unbiased person who has honestly In
vestigated Its merits has been con
vinced. If you belong to that class
and are willing to make an honest In
vestigation, we have no doubt of the
result.
When you know the facts, and have
been Informed as to the marvelous re
sults obtained In Bagwell's Business, _ —
College, you would no more purchaSf ■shorthand.
a scholarship for a course In Graham, Rspsnting of Their Mistakes.
Gregg, Munson or any of the Pltmanlc ” , J ‘ '* *' ‘
systems than you would ride op an
ox cart when you could take an electric
car for less money.
Does it Stand to Rsason
that over one hundred of the biggest,
beat, oldest and moat conservative bus
iness colleges of America, Including the
great Eastman College at Poughkeep
sie, N. Y„ would adopt this system, and
after thoroughly testing It, would make
the same claims that we make for It,
If these claims were not true?
Mr. Gaines, president of Eastman
College, perhaps the .largest business
college In the United States, says:
“It It so slmpje that a child can learn
; so comprehensive that every word
in the English language can be writ
ten; and its spttd powsr Is as great as
that of any othsr system."
E. R. Seldllts, president Rubicon
Shorthand College, at St. Louis, Mo,
the leading shorthand school of the
West, says:
"During September, 1806. we placed
twenty-five Chartler shorthand stu
dents In positions paying from 360 tn
876 per month. The greatest number
of days required to master the system
s sixty-five and the best record was
thirty-two days. The young lady
ho mastered it In thirty-two days
as Immediately placed In a 866 posl-
..on. In one of the leading dry goods
houses of St. Louis, and she still holds
the position.”
Additional Proof.
A number of pupils who entered Bag-
ell's Business College on June 4 and
studied only six to eight weeks are
now holding positions paying from |40
to 366 per month ana giving perfect
satisfaction. Nothing like this has ever
before been accomplished In the city
of Atlanta. The same results could
not be obtained with any other recog.
nlzed system of shorthand In less than
five to eight months.
What’s the Use
spend from six to ten months in
studying any of the old Pltmanlc sys
tems If you can learn Chartler Short
hand in half the time at half the ex-
nse, and at the same time make a
letter stenographer? | Do you know
of any sensible reason why you should
