+<p>In our last number we mentioned
+in the "Latest
+News" the sinking of the
+<i>Merrimac</i> at the entrance of
+the harbor of Santiago; since
+then a number of accounts
+have come, which we are sure
+you will be interested to hear.
+The brave fellows who were
+with Lieutenant Hobson were
+Daniel Montague, George Charette, Osborn Diegnan,
+George F. Phillips, Francis Kelly, J. C. Murphy,
+and Randolph Clausen.</p>
+
+
+
+<p>Before submitting his plans to Admiral Sampson,
+Lieutenant Hobson had worked them out to the
+smallest detail. Shortly before starting he told his
+plans to one of his companions. He said: "I am
+quite sure that we can reach to within three or four
+hundred yards past Estrella battery behind Morro
+Castle. I do not think that they can sink me before
+I can get there. When I reach this, the narrowest
+part of the channel, I shall swing the vessel around,
+stop the engines, open the sea valves, touch off the
+torpedoes, and leave the vessel lying across the channel,
+which is not as broad as the Merrimac is long.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_750" id="Page_750">[Pg 750]</a></span>
+There are to be ten torpedoes below the water-line
+placed against the bulkheads and connected with each
+other by a wire under the ship. These torpedoes connect
+with the bridge, and they should do their work
+very quickly. I shall have four of the men on the
+deck with me, and in the engine-room two others.
+We will all be in our underclothing, with our revolvers
+and ammunition, in water-tight cases, strapped to our
+waists. Near the anchor forward I shall have one of
+the men placed, with an axe, and around his waist a
+light line which will be attached to the bridge where
+I stand. The minute that I order the engines stopped
+I shall jerk this cord; this will be a signal to him to
+cut the lashing and let go the forward anchor. He
+will then jump overboard and swim to the boat at the
+stern. The men in the engine-room, after stopping
+the engines, will open the sea connections, and then
+join the rest and throw themselves overboard. I shall
+fire the torpedoes the last thing, and this will insure
+the rapid sinking of the vessel." When Hobson was
+asked if he expected to escape alive, he said: "Well,
+I suppose the batteries on shore will make it pretty
+hot for us; but they will not be able to see very
+clearly, and I think we have a fair chance of getting
+away. We certainly shall not allow ourselves to be
+taken prisoners without fighting for it." All Wednesday
+night the crew were at work on the <i>Merrimac</i>
+to get her stripped for her final resting-place. Early
+Thursday morning a start was made, but the vessel
+was ordered back, as the delays in getting her ready
+had made it impossible to take advantage of the
+darkness. Very early Friday morning the second
+start was made, and this time she succeeded in getting<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_751" id="Page_751">[Pg 751]</a></span>
+well in shore before the first glimmer of daylight; but
+soon the crews on the ships, who were anxiously
+waiting, saw the flash of the first gun on shore, and
+then a brisk firing began from both batteries and fort,
+which was kept up for some time. Of the <i>Merrimac</i>,
+nothing more was seen until broad daylight, when
+the top of her mast was discovered protruding from
+the water in just the position that Hobson had planned
+to place her.</p>

+<span class="caption">ENTRANCE TO SANTIAGO HARBOR.</span>
+</div>
+
+<p>Admiral Cervera sent a boat out with the news that
+the men had been captured, and to make arrangements
+for their exchange. Lieutenant Hobson's exploit has
+received universal praise from all parts of the world;
+he will unquestionably be promoted and receive special
+distinction from the Government.</p>
+
+<p>One of the young officers on the <i>New York</i>, Cadet
+Powell, also displayed great bravery. He was detailed
+to command the <i>New York's</i> steam launch,
+which accompanied the <i>Merrimac</i> to pick up Hobson
+and his men if they succeeded in escaping from the
+harbor; he was the last man to see them. Speaking of
+the start, he said: "Hobson was as cool as a cucumber;
+when I shook hands with him, he said: 'Powell,
+watch the boat's crew when we pull out of the harbor.
+We will be cracks, rowing thirty strokes to the minute.'
+We followed about three-quarters of a mile
+astern of the <i>Merrimac</i>. When about two hundred
+yards from the harbor the first gun was fired from the
+eastern bluff; we were then about a half mile from
+shore. The firing increased very rapidly, and we
+lost sight of the <i>Merrimac</i> in the smoke which the
+wind carried off shore. The western battery finally
+was used and began firing. They shot wildly, and<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_752" id="Page_752">[Pg 752]</a></span>
+we did not see where the shots struck. We then ran
+in closer to the shore. Then we heard the explosion
+of the torpedoes on the <i>Merrimac</i>. Until daylight we
+waited, just outside the breakers, about half a mile
+from Morro Castle, keeping a sharp lookout for a
+boat or swimmers. Hobson had arranged to meet us
+off that point; but thinking that some might have
+drifted out, we crossed in front of Morro. About five
+o'clock we crossed the harbor again, and in passing
+saw one spar of the <i>Merrimac</i> sticking out of the water;
+we hugged the shore just outside the breakers;
+the batteries saw us and opened fire; it was then broad
+daylight; and finding nothing, we finally made for the
+<i>New York</i>; the men behaved splendidly." Great admiration
+is expressed at the Navy Department in
+Washington at the coolness and pluck shown by Cadet
+Powell; he is likely to profit by his great courage.
+Young Powell is one of the cadets from the Naval
+Academy whom Lieutenant Hobson secured permis<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_753" id="Page_753">[Pg 753]</a></span>sion
+to take with him; they were in the class which
+Hobson instructed, and he wished them to accompany
+him in order that they might have practical experience
+in the effect of explosives on ships. At Annapolis
+young Powell was considered one of the brightest
+cadets; he graduated at the head of his class.</p>
+
+<p>Spanish accounts of the blowing up of the <i>Merrimac</i>
+are exceedingly amusing. The official announcement is
+made that an American vessel, trying to enter the harbor
+of Santiago, "was sunk by the batteries"; the affair
+is described as a brilliant Spanish victory; it is also
+added that Admiral Cervera personally saved an
+American officer from drowning, as his ship was in
+close proximity to the cruiser during the engagement.
+The official report goes on to say that the mines guarding
+the harbor were exploded simultaneously with the
+opening of the fire from the ships, forts, and batteries;
+congratulations were sent to Admiral Cervera.</p>

+
+<p>Each day is taken advantage of by the Spaniards
+at Havana to add to their defences. Earthworks
+are being rapidly thrown up in the neighborhood of
+the city; a signal service has been established to enable
+them to guard the coast at all the points, and
+they feel confident that a successful invasion cannot
+take place in that part of the island, as it is so well
+guarded with modern rapid-fire guns in the batteries,
+and quite a large force is concentrated there for the
+defence of the city.</p>
+
+<p>Little, if any, news comes from the blockading
+squadron off the north coast of Cuba; there are, from
+time to time, reports of engagements and the landing<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_754" id="Page_754">[Pg 754]</a></span>
+of troops; but official news has not yet been given
+out, and for this we must wait until the Government
+deems it advisable to publish it. Several regiments
+have been embarked at Mobile, and by this time are
+supposed to be off the coast of Cuba; they started in
+high spirits, and there was a great deal of enthusiasm
+on the part of the people who saw them start. They
+have probably gone by way of Tampa, and been joined
+there by the other transports.</p>
+
+<p>A great quantity of ammunition and supplies will
+be sent with the troops, so that they may not suffer
+from lack of material to make the invasion successful.</p>
+
+<p>One of our New York papers publishes a letter,
+written by a young girl in Havana to a friend in New
+York; it gives an excellent idea as to the true state of
+affairs in Cuba. Among other things, she says:</p>
+
+<p>"Our fisherman brought in some papers from New
+York, and what a lot of lies they contain! My father
+and all the other officials say that we have food here
+for five months&mdash;flour, codfish, beans, and groceries&mdash;all
+brought down from New York, and salted meat
+from Montevideo. . . .</p>
+
+<p>"Pa says that if you Americans had attacked Havana
+when you declared war it would have surrendered
+in five hours, but that it is now fortified so that
+it is strong as Gibraltar. You know, they built a
+great big railroad upon sticks, in front of the forts,
+and took cars of sand and dumped them down, so that
+they have a mound in front of all the forts about thirty
+feet wide and ten feet high. I went over the fortifications
+yesterday, and I saw fifteen of those immense
+12-inch guns. They say they can shoot twelve miles.
+We have got 50,000 troops here in Havana, and 60,<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_755" id="Page_755">[Pg 755]</a></span>000
+in the provinces, and some 40,000 volunteers.
+These are all veterans, and all the generals say that
+it would take an army of 200,000 to beat us. The
+coast is all supplied with telephone and telegraph
+wires, so that any time your boats attempt to land we
+can have a big force there in a couple of hours to
+drive them off. Part of Cervera's fleet is in Santiago.
+There is so much mystery about this! Whether
+the admiral is there or not, no one seems to know.
+The rest of the fleet, some fifteen vessels, is somewhere
+down in the Antilles, and Captain-General
+Blanco says they are going to attack your coast in
+about three weeks.</p>
+
+<p>"The <i>Alfonso XII.</i> has been turned into a hospital
+ship, and all her guns have been taken out of her.
+You know she is the boat that was anchored opposite
+the <i>Maine</i> and had in her the pneumatic torpedoes.
+They say a man named Arjona had something to do
+with the blowing up of the <i>Maine</i>, but I guess it was
+Weyler's orders. . . .</p>
+
+<p>"The whole city is divided up into sections on what
+they call the 'Humanity Committee's plan.' They
+find out who are in sympathy with the Cubans or
+with the United States; and in case Havana is bombarded
+all these people are going to be thrown into
+Cabanas or shot. The people are such fools they
+think nothing is known about what they are doing."</p>

+
+<p>We told you in a recent number about the unsuccessful
+result of the attempt to land an expedition
+in Cuba; this result was largely due, no doubt,
+to the fact that the Spaniards were advised in ad<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_756" id="Page_756">[Pg 756]</a></span>vance,
+through Spanish spies in this country, of the
+intended departure of the expedition. On May 31st,
+the steamer <i>Florida</i> returned to Key West, after having
+successfully landed an important expedition on
+the island. This time they succeeded in taking their
+departure without it being known to any one. The
+expedition, consisting of about four hundred men,
+with a pack-train and a large quantity of arms and
+ammunition, sailed for Guantanamo on the night of
+May 21st. The expedition was under command of
+Colonel Lacret, with whom was Captain J. A. Dorst,
+of the United States army. The men were equipped
+with canvas uniforms furnished by the Government,
+and had rations sufficient for fifteen days after landing;
+the pack-train consisted of seventy-five mules
+and twenty-five horses; the expedition landed on the
+coast of Cuba, Thursday morning, May 26th. The
+<i>Florida</i>, escorted by the gunboat <i>Osceola</i>, drew up
+close to the shore, and first landed scouts to ascertain
+if all was clear; these scouts were met by a band
+of 1,500 insurgents, under Captains Vereira and Rojas.
+There was absolutely no interruption to the unloading
+of the <i>Florida</i>, as no sign of a Spaniard was
+seen. This is the largest expedition which has ever
+been landed in Cuba in aid of the insurgents.</p>

+
+<p>There is a very interesting account of the origin
+of the Red Cross Society in <i>The Churchman</i>.
+About forty years ago, M. Henry Dimont, a native of
+Switzerland, having witnessed the unnecessary suffering
+of the wounded, from lack of care, at the battle of
+Solferino, was so much impressed that he published<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_757" id="Page_757">[Pg 757]</a></span>
+a book, pointing out the necessity of forming a corporation
+of nurses to work in the cause of humanity
+in time of war, regardless of nationality of the injured,
+and who should be permitted to aid the wounded
+on the battle-field, under the protection of a flag
+which should be recognized as neutral.</p>
+
+<p>So much interest was taken in the idea that the
+outcome was a convention held at Geneva in 1864,
+which was attended by representatives from sixteen
+of the great nations of the world, who signed an
+agreement that they would protect members of the
+association when caring for the wounded on the field
+of battle. The society adopted for its colors the
+Swiss cross, as a compliment to its birthplace; they,
+however, reversed the colors, and the flag is therefore
+a red cross on a white field, and is the only military
+hospital flag of civilized warfare; it protects persons
+from molestation who work under the emblem performing
+services in aid of the wounded. Great care
+is used in granting permission to persons to wear this
+emblem; and in order that it shall not be taken advantage
+of to spy in the enemies' camp, private marks
+are added to prevent imitation. The headquarters
+of the International Committee is at Geneva; the
+president of the society is M. Gustav Moynier.</p>
+
+<p>In 1882, Miss Clara Barton was delegated by the
+President of the United States to represent this country
+at the Congress of the Red Cross Committee, and
+was made a member of the International Board of
+Managers when the United States signed the international
+treaty.</p>
+
+<p>It was decided that the work of the Red Cross Society
+should not be confined to times of war, but that<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_758" id="Page_758">[Pg 758]</a></span>
+in case of disasters and calamities, which were always
+to be apprehended, the organization was to provide
+aid. During the past seventeen years the American
+Red Cross Society has served in fifteen disasters and
+famines, and Russians, Armenians, and Cubans have
+received aid from this society.</p>

+
+<p>Friday, June 3d, Samuel Plimsoll, known as the
+"sailors' friend," died in England. Plimsoll was
+the <ins title="Transcriber's Note: original reads 'orginator'">originator</ins> of the famous "Plimsoll mark," and this
+is what caused him to be called the <ins title="Transcriber's Note: original reads 'sailors's'">sailors'</ins> friend.
+Many years ago it was the custom of unprincipled
+ship-owners to send their vessels to sea very much
+overloaded; this was done to save the expense of a
+double voyage, for in those days there were few steam
+merchantmen, and sailing-vessels oftentimes took
+months for their voyages. The Plimsoll mark is
+painted on the vessel to indicate how much cargo she
+should carry. When a vessel has her full cargo the
+Plimsoll mark is at the water-line; laws were passed
+making it illegal to load vessels so deeply as to sink
+this mark below the surface of the water, and in consequence
+sailors' lives are not risked in overloaded
+vessels.</p>

+
+<p>Some very interesting questions have arisen in reference
+to the difference of time between Manila
+and New York. The difference between Manila and
+New York is about eleven hours; when it is five in
+the morning in Manila, it is four in the afternoon
+with us. In order to change Manila time to our time
+we must deduct about eleven hours. This is all very<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_759" id="Page_759">[Pg 759]</a></span>
+simple so far as hours are concerned; but when we
+try to find out what day it is we run against a more
+complicated matter, for there is a certain place, or
+rather a certain mysterious line, which the great nations
+have agreed upon as the international date line.
+This date line is supposed to be the 180th meridian
+longitude reckoning from Greenwich; but this meridian
+is not actually followed, for in the case of the
+Philippine Islands it takes a long sweep, and passes
+to the west of them, and, in consequence, there is a
+difference of nearly a whole day between Manila and
+Hong-Kong, although the actual difference of time is
+but about half an hour. This difference causes all
+kinds of complications there, in that Hong-Kong and
+Manila are so near each other. A telegram dated at
+Hong-Kong, say, the 1st of May at one o'clock, will
+reach us April 30th; if sent direct to Manila it would
+reach there apparently nearly twenty-four hours before
+it was sent, for when it is Monday in Manila it
+is Tuesday in Hong-Kong. This will account for the
+receipt of the despatch in reference to Commodore
+Dewey's victory dated Hong-Kong, May 2d, stating
+that the bombardment was then taking place, whereas
+it was really Sunday, May 1st, in Manila. The necessity
+for having an international date line can best be
+understood if you will imagine yourself travelling
+around the world in some sort of a conveyance which
+enables you to keep pace with the sun; say, for instance,
+your start is on a Monday, with the sun directly
+over your head. If it were not for the international
+date line it would always be Monday to you;
+instead of this, each time that you cross the 180th
+meridian the day changes.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_760" id="Page_760">[Pg 760]</a></span></p>

+are to be protected.
+It is said
+that his treatment of
+the captives has been
+very fair, and that he
+is conducting the
+campaign against
+Spain in a very able
+manner. Since he
+has taken charge of
+affairs the Spanish
+soldiers have lost battle
+after battle, and it
+is said that there are
+now in Aguinaldo's hands over two thousand prisoners,
+including many officers. Aguinaldo reports
+that the Governor of Cavite (c&auml;-v&#275;-t&#257;) has surrendered
+to him. One of the American captains has written to
+Hong-Kong, stating that it is his opinion "that the
+rebels have undergone a radical change since the
+arrival of Aguinaldo; the Spaniards have lost every<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_761" id="Page_761">[Pg 761]</a></span>
+engagement, and if our people do not hurry, there
+will be no Spanish army left."</p>
+
+<p>The American vessels have taken no part in the
+fight between Spain and the insurgents; Admiral
+Dewey has contented himself with superintending
+and insisting upon proper conduct of affairs. The
+news he sends is exceedingly cheerful, and he seems
+to be quite confident that he can hold out until reinforcements
+arrive; he anticipates no trouble in capturing
+the city of Manila.</p>

+
+<p>Lieutenant Carranza's missing letter has
+been found. You will remember we told in our
+last number of the arrest of a Montreal detective who
+had been arrested and accused of stealing it. It was not
+taken by the Montreal detective, but by a secret service
+officer of our Government. It seems that the Spanish
+officials at Montreal have been very carefully watched
+for some time, for it was known that they were spying
+upon our Government. The detectives had followed
+Minister Polo and his staff ever since they left
+Washington, and had secured absolute proof that
+Du Bosc and Carranza were collecting information and
+forwarding it to the Spanish Government. On the
+pretext of purchasing the house, they were shown all
+over it, and succeeded in securing a number of important
+letters, cablegrams, maps, etc., which were forwarded
+to the Government. The letter which Carranza
+has made so much fuss about was stolen in a
+very clever way. The detective took a sheet of fly
+paper, and in a careless way dropped it over the letter;
+then took up the fly paper and the letter attached<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_762" id="Page_762">[Pg 762]</a></span>
+to it, and passed it to another detective, who at once
+forwarded it to Washington. Part of the letter has
+been published. It is addressed to his Excellency
+Don Jose Gomez Imay. In it Carranza expresses his
+regret that Imay was not appointed to command the
+Cadiz fleet; he speaks disparagingly of Camara and
+highly of Cervera; most of this part of the letter is
+in reference to his personal employment by the Government,
+and he <ins title="Transcriber's Note: original reads 'expreses'">expresses</ins> great anxiety to be away to
+the front and in active service on the fleet.</p>
+
+<p>Speaking of his spy system, he says: "We have had
+bad luck because they have captured our two best
+spies. The Americans are showing the most extraordinary
+vigilance. I shall be extremely gratified to
+have a ship or a torpedo-boat to run the blockade, or
+anything rather than playing second fiddle." These
+quotations go to show that Carranza was not over-pleased
+with the work of conducting the spy department
+in Canada. He takes the trouble to criticize Cervera's
+actions, and he alludes to him as "Don Pasquale,"
+and says that he cannot believe that the
+Admiral would do such a stupid thing as to get
+caught in Santiago, his purpose being to attack the
+American fleet and delay the invasion of Cuba. This
+letter demonstrates very clearly the wisdom of the
+Government in keeping carefully guarded all knowledge
+of the movements of our army and navy, for
+Carranza has taken advantage of the statements published
+and information easily obtained heretofore,
+and has kept his Government informed, and has
+also personally been advising Admiral Cervera whenever
+opportunity offered: he speaks of having cabled
+to Cervera on 20th of May. Our Government has<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_763" id="Page_763">[Pg 763]</a></span>
+made application to the English Government for the
+expulsion of the Spanish spies from British territory.</p>
+
+<p>Kellert, the Montreal detective, has caused the arrest
+of both Du Bosc and Carranza, in a civil suit for
+damages for false imprisonment; so the Spaniards are
+in hotter water than ever, especially as all of their
+money in the Bank of Montreal has been seized as
+security.</p>

+
+<p>A very interesting account of life in Skaguay,
+Alaska, has recently been received. The account
+is written by a Wisconsin woman who, with
+her husband, went to Alaska to open a restaurant and
+hotel in Skaguay. She writes: "I never felt so lonesome
+in my life; I never worked so hard, but have
+never been so happy; money comes in so fast that we
+do not know what to do with it. At first, when there
+was no bank, we were obliged to hide the money in
+all parts of the house, and we were in constant terror.
+We had paper money, silver money, gold money, gold
+dust, and every form of currency that can be imagined
+hidden all over the house; and as the town was full of
+people who were without money, and who would not
+hesitate to cut one's throat for a dollar, we did not
+have a single moment free from anxiety. Early in
+the winter we did succeed in sending a number of
+thousands of dollars to Seattle, and were very much
+relieved when we received a receipt from the bank.</p>
+
+<p>"The transportation companies are swindlers. They
+are persuading thousands of people to come to this
+awful country who will never be able to go back, and
+all for the sake of making the profit on transportation.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_764" id="Page_764">[Pg 764]</a></span></p>

+
+<p>"Flour that we had shipped from Seattle, and which
+cost over $5 per barrel, cost as much more for freight
+to this place. But as we sold it for over $40 a barrel
+before it left the dock, we had nothing to complain
+of; and it was very poor flour at that, not fit for bread,
+and hardly suitable for the plainest kind of cooking.</p>
+
+<p>"As for our restaurant, we started it with the idea of
+giving people good home cooking, and we can hardly
+serve the people, they come so fast. The restaurant
+is open day and night, and the tables always full. At
+first we got a good price for our meals, that is, from
+$1.50 to $2.50 for a dinner. But there is more competition
+now, and prices have gone down.</p>
+
+<p>"The town is still filled with gamblers, and is a
+mining town in every sense of the word, although the
+troops keep the rough element in fairly good order.
+The town is particularly lonely for refined women, as
+there are very few here, and very little in the way of
+amusement for them.</p>
+
+<p>"It is not so very cold. I have seen as severe weather
+in the States; and the thermometer rarely goes below
+15 degrees below zero, and that is not so bad.
+But there is very little sun, and this we miss the most.
+We work by lamplight day and night.</p>
+
+<p>"Whatever people may say about the Klondike,
+there is still plenty of gold there; and although we
+are making a barrelful of money here at this business,
+we will very probably 'up stakes' and go to the diggings.
+Every boat that arrives is loaded with gold-hunters,
+and Skaguay is crowded. Hundreds of people
+are camped between here and Chilkoot Pass, and are
+scattered all along the trail. This year will bring<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_766" id="Page_766">[Pg 766]</a></span>
+many improvements in the line of travelling, and, in
+consequence, there will be less hardship."</p>

+
+<p>Much interest has been awakened by the report
+of an interview with Se&ntilde;or Moret, ex-Secretary
+of the Colonies of Spain. He is reported to have
+said that "the Government does not know where it
+is going. There is no person in Spain who can tell
+the outcome of the present situation. The Government
+is not a fixed one, and allows matters to run in
+their own course heedless of the effect; in other
+words, matters are allowed to drift their own way.
+It is useless to conceal the fact that the Cabinet is not
+solid. Its members are working at cross purposes, the
+ministers lack energy, and, in fact, are absolutely incompetent,
+and simply trust to chance to get out of
+their present troubles.</p>
+
+<p>"A campaign in favor of peace has been begun, and
+is progressing among the people. I am convinced that
+if the people were allowed to state their wishes, even
+the soldiers would advocate peace.</p>
+
+<p>"It is difficult to say whether the regency will be
+overthrown, nor can I say what will happen to a country
+that is without guidance and with a foreign war
+on its hands. If the regency is overthrown it will be
+an immense misfortune to Spain. The affairs of Spain
+are in complete disorder."</p>
+
+<p>This report comes by way of London, and would
+seem to confirm reports previously published as to
+the condition of matters in Spain.</p>

+<p>A bill for the removal of all political disabilities
+arising from the Civil War, recently presented
+in Congress, has passed and is now a law, as
+President McKinley has formally approved it. This
+bill refers to Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment
+to the Constitution.</p>
+
+<p>This amendment made it impossible for any person
+to hold a political position in the United States who
+had taken up arms against the Government, if he
+had previously held a political position and had declared
+his allegiance to the United States. The law
+that has just been passed declares that "disabilities
+imposed by Section 3, Amendment 14, of the Constitution,
+heretofore incurred, are hereby removed."</p>

+
+<p>Some of the survivors of the terrible massacre at
+Sierra Leone reached New York during the past
+week. The story of their escape is a very thrilling
+one. It seems that among the natives in that part of
+Africa there is a secret society. When the natives feel
+that they have any grievance against a particular tribe
+or people, they send word to all members of the society
+that "pura" is declared against the offenders;
+this means that they are condemned to death.</p>
+
+<p>As a result of the hut tax, which we told you about
+in a recent number, "pura" was declared against all
+English people in Africa. News soon reached the
+different missionary stations that this had been done;
+but the attack on the Rotufunk mission came almost
+without warning. Mr. Ward, who is the only one of
+these missionaries left alive, went in the latter part of<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_768" id="Page_768">[Pg 768]</a></span>
+April to Freetown for supplies, and at that time there
+was not any sign of danger. Through natives the
+story of the massacre has been obtained. It seems
+that early on the morning of May 3d native women
+came running to the mission house and cried that an
+armed force was coming to capture the place. The
+missionaries had no means of defence; their only hope
+of safety was in flight; but, unfortunately, they were
+too late. When the tribesmen arrived and found that
+the whites had left, they started through the bush,
+and soon captured all of the unfortunate missionaries.
+The tortures to which they put these poor men
+and women are too terrible to repeat. Death put a
+welcome end to their sufferings.</p>

+</div>
+
+<p>In the mean time, the colony of Americans at Shengeh
+received news that the natives had rebelled. A
+friendly native visited the mission and told Dr. Burt<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_769" id="Page_769">[Pg 769]</a></span>ner
+that the tribes had declared "pura" against this
+mission, and that he had better fly. Immediately
+the work of getting boats in readiness was begun, and
+the missionaries, together with the friendly natives,
+finally succeeded in reaching Freetown.</p>
+
+<p>Miss Mullins, whose station was at Momliga, where
+she was the only white person, had a very narrow escape.
+April 29th, a band of natives came there shouting
+and singing. Miss Mullins ran to the river in the
+hope of finding a boat in which she could escape.
+The boats had all been taken by the natives, who had
+either fled or gone to join the war tribes. Knowing
+that there was no chance of her hiding in the bush,
+the brave girl decided that if she was to die she would
+die at her post.</p>
+
+<p>She turned back from the river into the clearing,
+where the superstitious natives stood aside to let her
+pass. One of them seized her as she was passing, and
+asked her what she was going to do. She said: "I
+am going inside; I cannot escape you, you are too
+many for me. Leave me to myself for a short time."
+The man brandished a spear in her face, and said:
+"See, that is the blood of your friends; yours will soon
+cover it." But she did not falter, and the savages
+probably left her untouched for this reason. They
+are very superstitious, and must have thought that
+there was something supernatural about her. Shortly
+after this she heard the tramp of feet outside, and an
+English voice calling to ask if there was anybody inside;
+running out, she found that the British commissioner
+and a large force had arrived. And with them
+she made her escape.</p>
+
+<p>When the Americans arrived at Freetown, a large<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_770" id="Page_770">[Pg 770]</a></span>
+force of volunteers had been concentrated, and it is
+hoped that the uprising will soon be at an end.</p>

+
+<p>One of our subscribers has asked why the flag of
+Hawaii has eight stripes and three crosses.
+There is a very interesting story told in reference to
+this peculiar flag. It seems that about twenty-five
+years ago, when the country was still a monarchy, it
+was quite frequently visited by war-ships of different
+nations. It is said that one morning the King discovered
+a French war-ship anchored safely in the harbor
+of Honolulu, and fearing that the French were there
+for purpose of seizing the island, sent for his Prime
+Minister, who advised him to raise a flag, and in this
+way advise the visitors that the islands belonged to
+some one. But the island did not possess a flag of its
+own; the only one the King could find at first was an
+old British flag. This he had run up to the top of the
+highest flag-pole. The flag had hardly been raised,
+when one of his chief advisers came running to him,
+and told him he must take the flag down immediately,
+for a British man-of-war was expected, and would be
+sure to claim ownership of the islands if the British
+flag was seen flying over the palace. So the King
+started on another flag hunt. This time he found an
+American flag, and, with great ingenuity, took the two
+flags, cut them up, and made a combination. Therefore
+the first Hawaiian flag had thirteen red and white<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_771" id="Page_771">[Pg 771]</a></span>
+stripes, and the English jack in the corner. Later, it
+was decided that eight stripes, to represent the eight
+islands of the nation, would be more appropriate;
+therefore the extra stripes were cut off, and now the
+flag has eight stripes, four red and four white, and
+still carries the St. George's, St. Andrew's, and St.
+Patrick's crosses, the same as the English flag.</p>
+
+<p>The superstitious natives believe that the ascendency
+of the white people over the colored is due to the
+fact that the white stripe was left uppermost on the
+flag. They have frequently tried to have the flag
+changed for this reason, for they believe that, if the
+red is given prominence, the natives will again have
+the ascendency.</p>

+
+<p>On the morning of June 8th, the first definite confirmation
+of the news of an engagement off
+Santiago was published. The vessels which are reported
+to have taken part in the engagement were the
+<i>Brooklyn</i>, <i>Marblehead</i>, <i>Texas</i>, and <i>Massachusetts</i> forming
+the first division; the <i>New York</i>, <i>New Orleans</i>,
+<i>Yankee</i>, <i>Iowa</i>, and <i>Oregon</i> the second division. Very
+early on the morning of the 6th, they steamed in toward
+the entrance of the harbor in double column, the
+first division to the left, the second to the right, the
+vessels being in the order named above. When about
+three thousand yards off shore the first division turned
+toward the west and the second division toward the
+east; the little vessels <i>Vixen</i> and <i>Swanee</i> remaining
+far out on the left of the first division to watch the
+riflemen on shore, and the <i>Dolphin</i> and <i>Porter</i> occupying
+similar positions on the right for the same<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_772" id="Page_772">[Pg 772]</a></span>
+purpose. The fight was started by a 12-inch shell
+from the <i>Iowa</i>, which struck the base of the Estrella
+battery and tore up the works. This was a signal for
+all of the vessels to begin firing, and from that time
+until the firing ceased the bombardment was terrific.
+The vessels had run up in the beginning at the point
+where the range of the forts and batteries was known,<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_773" id="Page_773">[Pg 773]</a></span>
+and, in consequence, although the smoke hung so
+thickly about the ships that the forts could not be
+seen, the shots were very effective. The vessels of
+the first division had been instructed to concentrate
+their fire at the fortifications at the left or west side
+of the entrance to the harbor; those of the second division
+attacking Morro Castle and fortifications to the
+right, and the Spanish vessels in the harbor which
+were within range. The Spanish gunners on shore
+replied promptly, but their marksmanship was of no
+better quality than in previous engagements, and it
+is reported that practically no damage was done to
+our fleet. It is reported that one Spanish shell struck
+the military mast of the <i>Massachusetts</i>, but nobody was
+hurt. One man on the <i>Swanee</i> was slightly wounded,
+and it is said that he is the only one who was hurt on
+our side. As the bombardment proceeded, Commodore
+Schley's ships moved nearer to the shore, and
+the effect of their fire at such short range was tremendous:
+earthworks were simply blown to pieces, and
+the Spanish gunners soon forced to stop firing. The
+Estrella fortification, which was probably the strongest
+one there, was given particular attention by Schley's
+column. The fort offered great resistance, but when
+the vessels had moved to closer range the heavy guns
+of the <i>Texas</i> and <i>Marblehead</i> were turned upon it.
+The Spanish guns were soon silenced and the fortification
+set on fire. The Cayo battery was silenced
+by the <i>New York</i> and <i>New Orleans</i> after a terrific fire
+of about half an hour. Many of the American shells
+were wasted for the reason that the fortified points
+on the shore could not be accurately located in the
+thick weather. There was a heavy rain and fog at the<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_774" id="Page_774">[Pg 774]</a></span>
+time, and this made marksmanship much less accurate.
+Shortly after nine o'clock the firing from shore
+ceased, and a signal was hoisted by Admiral Sampson
+to cease firing. It was then seen that the earthworks
+and the Estrella and Catalina fortifications were
+so damaged that it is doubtful whether the Spaniards
+will be able to use them again.</p>

+
+<p>Reports of the engagement make particular mention
+of the good showing made by the naval militia on the
+<i>Yankee</i>. They worked like old blue-jackets, pouring
+a savage fire into the enemy, and it was accurate too.
+They kept close in shore and paid particular attention
+to the batteries near the beach. This was their first
+experience under fire, and they showed the stuff they
+are made of. Indeed, they proved themselves so fond
+of that sort of thing, that when orders were given to
+stop the engagement, there was a great deal of amusement
+on board the larger vessels when it was seen that
+they hammered away with their stern guns as long as
+they were within range; even after the order had been
+signalled to cease firing, they turned slowly and
+reluctantly away, as if they were sorry to leave.</p>

+<p>June 10th, "Old Glory" was raised on
+Cuban soil, and the welcome sight was
+Deceived with rousing cheers by the marines,
+who had landed.</p>
+
+<p>On Thursday, the 9th, orders were given to a number
+of the vessels to go to Guantanamo Bay and assist
+in a landing there.</p>
+
+<p>On Friday, under cover of the guns of the <i>Oregon</i>,
+<i>Marblehead</i>, <i>Yankee</i>, <i>Yosemite</i>, <i>Porter</i>, <i>Dolphin</i>, and<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_775" id="Page_775">[Pg 775]</a></span>
+<i>Vixen</i>, six hundred marines of the first battalion
+landed with small boats near Caimanera in Guantanamo
+Bay. This place had been shelled several
+days before, in order that the Spaniards should have
+no fortifications to aid them in preventing this
+landing.</p>
+
+<p>No Spaniards appeared, however, and our men had
+soon landed tents and the necessary implements with
+which to make an encampment. The site chosen was
+the hill where the blockhouse had been, as this high
+spot was considered the most healthful position.</p>
+
+<p>Orders were given to destroy the few houses and
+huts, to prevent all possibility of catching yellow
+fever from any germs which might have been lingering
+there. These hovels made a fine bonfire, as they
+were built of light materials with thatched roofs.</p>
+
+<p>The men were glad enough to get ashore, for they
+have been cooped on the transports most of the time
+since April 22d, knocking about on the ocean. In
+that hot climate it is not over-agreeable to be on ship-board,
+even with ample room to move about in; but
+when crowded as the men on transports are, there is
+no end of discomfort.</p>
+
+<p>All Friday afternoon and evening the men worked
+away at their camp, and were tired enough when they
+were ordered to turn in for the night.</p>
+
+<p>Every precaution was taken to guard against a surprise,
+although no attack was expected. Saturday
+the men continued their work, which was getting
+along finely and almost completed, when late in the
+afternoon, while a large number of men were hauling
+water up the hill, and others, who had been working
+hard all day, were taking a swim in the bay, there<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_776" id="Page_776">[Pg 776]</a></span>
+was suddenly heard the sharp crack of Mauser rifles,
+and the men knew that the Spaniards were there.</p>
+
+<p>As a matter of course, the attack came from the thick
+underwood surrounding the rear of the camp, and
+soon the air was filled with bullets whistling around
+the heads of our men.</p>
+
+<p>As soon as the shots were heard the men came running
+to aid their comrades. Many of them who had
+been swimming grabbed up their rifles and cartridge-belts,
+and began firing, without waiting to dress.</p>
+
+<p>With great coolness the men were formed and soon
+repulsed the Spanish force. Firing was kept up until
+midnight. In the darkness the Spaniards became
+bolder and attacked the camp, the white tents making
+a good mark. If their marksmanship had been
+better, our losses must have been serious. As it was,
+however, but four men were killed&mdash;Assistant Surgeon
+J. B. Gibbs, Sergeant C. H. Smith, and two privates,
+William Dunphy and James McColgan. During the
+night the vessels off shore kept their powerful searchlights
+turned upon the heights, and this greatly interfered
+with the Spaniards, who could not leave the
+woods without exposing themselves to the fire of our
+men.</p>
+
+<p>The first news of this, our first land encounter with
+the Spanish, was published on Monday of this week.</p>
+
+<p>News of the fall of Manila, received Monday, the
+13th, came by way of London from our ambassador
+there. But particulars were not given, and we do not
+know whether the city was surrendered to the rebels
+or to Admiral Dewey.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_777" id="Page_777">[Pg 777]</a></span></p>

+THE FULL PROJECT GUTENBERG LICENSE
+PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU DISTRIBUTE OR USE THIS WORK
+
+To protect the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting the free
+distribution of electronic works, by using or distributing this work
+(or any other work associated in any way with the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg"), you agree to comply with all the terms of the Full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License (available with this file or online at
+http://gutenberg.org/license).
+
+
+Section 1. General Terms of Use and Redistributing Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic works
+
+1.A. By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work, you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to
+and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
+(trademark/copyright) agreement. If you do not agree to abide by all
+the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy
+all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your possession.
+If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound by the
+terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the person or
+entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.
+
+1.B. "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark. It may only be
+used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
+even without complying with the full terms of this agreement. See
+paragraph 1.C below. There are a lot of things you can do with Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement
+and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works. See paragraph 1.E below.
+
+1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"
+or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States. If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work. You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently
+whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the
+phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges. If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.
+
+1.E.4. Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5. Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6. You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form. However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than
+"Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official version
+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form. Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
+
+1.E.7. Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
+performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works
+unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
+
+1.E.8. You may charge a reasonable fee for copies of or providing
+access to or distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works provided
+that
+
+- You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
+ the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
+ you already use to calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is
+ owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+ has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+ Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments
+ must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+ prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax
+ returns. Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and
+ sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the
+ address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+ the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+ you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+ does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+ License. You must require such a user to return or
+ destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+ and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+ Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+ money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+ electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+ of receipt of the work.
+
+- You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
+ distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set
+forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from
+both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael
+Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark. Contact the
+Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.
+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the

+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+

+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
