I live in New Haven; it is a beautiful city, full of elm trees,
with parks. Also Yale College, from which Nathan Hale and Samuel
Morse graduated.

P.S.--I am glad that you don't publish prize-fights. It is the
nature of animals, not human beings.



DEAR JOHN:

There is no longer any doubt that General Maceo was killed. The stories
that he was still alive were probably made up by the Cubans, for fear
their countrymen might lose heart if they knew the truth.

You will see in this number of your paper that General Rivera is not to be
shot, according to the present reports. EDITOR.


DEAR EDITOR:

I enjoy THE GREAT ROUND WORLD immensely, and look
forward to its coming every week. I like to read about Greece
and Cuba, and if I were Grecian I would gladly join in the war.
I hope Greece will win, for I pity the poor Cretans under the
cruel rule of Turkey. Wishing your paper many years of success,
