Havana, via Tamfa. Fla., -'une|
10. —The work ci extermination of 1
non-combatants, or "pacificos, as j
th«v are styled here, continues.;
Not a day passes without some;
shocking story beingtold of bru al
assassinations comini'ted by the
troops on defenseless people, whose
sole crime is that they were wit
nesses of the fighting, witcut tak
ing any part in it.
TYPE OF SPANISH ATROCITY.
On June 2 a column of Spanish
troops commanded by Colonel
Ochoa, operating around Jaruco,
Havana P ozince, capiu e 1 Juan
Rodrigues, a boy’ of fifteen, who
was suffering from nervous pros
tration and so weak that he could
hardly move without assistance.
He was dragged from his home,
despite his pitiable condition, he
was butchered on the roadway to
Tapaste for the sole crime of being
a cousin of Victor Simon, a leader
in the rebel army.
COURT-MARTIAI A MOCKERY.
On June Ist Simon Yruri, mem
ber of one of the best families of ,
Jaruco, was arrested on suspicion ! (
of being a rebel sympathizer, by
orders oi General Melguizo. He 1
was too well known to be n 1
out of town and ehot in the fields,
as this would er ate a scandal, so
they made a semblance of a court
martial, and with all the apparent ,
formalities of the law he was pub
licly shot in the square of the
town.
The deed aroused general indig
nation whan it was known that I
Meiguizo had ordered the execu- ;
tion on his own authority without
consulting the Captain General,
who is the only one empowered to
order such proceedings.
SHOT DOWN LIKE DOOS.
On June 4 Lorenzo Medida, a
native of the Canary Island and a
cattle dealer of means, and Juan 1
Toledo, a Cuban, owner of a cart
gbop, were arrested on no known
charges. They’ were lodged in the
Civil Guards barrack and tie 1
next morning were taken out of
the tewn under | remise of pronq t
release and treacherously’ shot
behind the slaughter bouse.
It is known that Valencia had
a fight with Colonel Fondeviel",
of Campos Florida fame, in which
this “brave” was completely
routed, losing 32 dead men left
cn the field. This has never been
reported officially.
DEFECTIONS T.j THE rebel ranks.
The Bayamo Guerrilla, about
100 men, commanded by Canino
Guerra,* has joined the rebels,
seduced thereto by Calixto Garcia
when he passed near that place
last week.
In Sancti Spiritus a band of
musicians of the local volunteers,
headed by its bandmaster, Justo
Alvarez, also went over to the
woods to enliven the time tor the
revolutionists.
HEROIC MEASURES OF THE REBEL*.
It is rumored that the insurgents
intend to blow up the gas works
and cut off the water supp'y of
this city. This rumor l.as caused
considerable excitement here be
cause it is known that the insur
gents have accomplished every
thing they’ have said they would
do. Many peopls are buying a
supply of kerosene and making
arrangements to get water in
case the supply’ is cut off.
THE EMBARGO ON CUBAN TOBACCO.
New York, June 10.—The Ward
liner Seguranca, which arrived
here to-day from Havana, brought
the last cargo of Havana tobacco
from Cuba which will arrive here
until Captain General Weylet’s
order prohibiting the shipment ol
tobacco from the isl. nd shall
have been rescinded.

The firemen are kicking because
the fire alarm bell on the tower
has not worked, for the last two
fires. Last night, for instance, the
tower alarm failed to work and
the firemen on tl e wagons had
i-caice'y any’ help when they
reached the Wardlaw—Thed
ford blaze over in the Fourth.
This defect is going to prove
terribly fatal some of these times.
The fire alarm keeper has a pe

The good colored people of this
city were called upon today to lay
to her long sleep a colored woman
who had earned for herself,among
j both races an enviable reputation.
1 refer to Alice Malone, the young
wife of a good colored citizen . As
Alice Davis, this young colored
i woman was for several years one
of the best teachers in the Rome
colored Public Schools. She had
a wonderful influence for good
over the children of her race. SI e
won and held the kindliest and
most considerate feeling from the
public school officials. A great
concour-e of people followed her
remains to the cemetery and sadly
watched them lowered to their
narrow resting place. A good col
ored woman is gone.
Mr. James Perdue, an old sol
dier residing at Monroe, Mich,,
was severely’ afflicted with rheu
matism but received prompt re
lief from pain by using Chamber
lain’s Pain Balm. He says: ‘‘At
times my back would ache so bad
ly that 1 could hardly raise up. If
I had net gotten relief 1 would
not be here to write these few
lines. Chamberlain’s Pain Balm
has done me a great deal of good
and 1 feel very thankful for it.”
