No. 39CHICAGO, ILL., JULY 20, 1899.THE CUBAN GENERALHELEN VAN WYCK BURLINGWhen Laura Wendell, probationer in St.Michael's Hospital entered her_ ward Sundaymorning, she saw with interest that a new pa­tient had arrived. In her progress along theline of beds she soon reached the new patient.As she started to make more orderly the tablewhich was strewn with toilet articles andnewspaper clippings, he glanced at her frompale benignant blue eyes. "Don't 'lose any ofthose papers," he said, "I wrote those before Iwent to Cuba." "Have you been in Cuba?"Laura asked, politely. It was the Autumn of'98 and patients who had not been in Cubawere the exception, "Yes, I went a year agoto write for a newspaper syndicate. Perhapsyou would like to read something I have, \written. I have an article in this morning'sTribune." "I should like to, later; I haven'ttime now," Laura answered as she moved on.The ward was dusted, the ledges were freedfrom the black soot which sifted over from the,Illinois tracks. The temperatures were taken.and while her head nurse was at dinner Laurastopped again at Mr. Asber's bedside. "I sup­pose you will not be here long?" she said."Some time, I'm afraid," he answered with asad smile. "I don't ever expect to get overthe injuries inflicted on me by those terrible. Cubans." Then, encouraged by her look ofinterest, "You have no idea what low despera­does those Cubans are. Why, my friend and Iwere traveling across the country when we fellin with a gang of those Cuban highwaymen.They took us prisoners, smashed my friend'sphotographic apparatus, tortured him in themost hellish manner and finally cut the fleshfrom his body in strips." "Oh l" exclaimedLaura in low-voiced horror and disgust. "Y es,"went on the benevolent old man who di'ti notseem much affected by his friend's trag�dy,\I\I_l " and the only reason they did not kill me wasbecause they saw that I could be of use tothem. You see I was surgeon in the Englisharmy for ten years. One of the bandits hadbroken his leg, and when I set it they decidedto keep me; but before this they had knockedout three of my front teeth. You see, I amnot old enough to have lost them otherwise.Then they shut me up in a cell where I had tostand knee deep in mud without food or drinkand in total darkness for seventy-two hours.I escaped in this way: I finally attracted the. attention or the guard, gave him some goldwhich I had managed to conceal (though they'had taken $4000 from me) and bribed him toget some food and wine. 'Then I asked himin, got him drunk, put on his uniform andescaped as a Cuban soldier." "I should nothave thought you. would have looked like aCuban soldier," Laura said, glancing thought­fully at his white beard and skin. "Oh, yes;at night,", then as she moved away he added,"and another time I escaped in nun's disguise."By the time Laura reached her room she be­gin to suspect that she had been deceived."Getting the jailer drunk," "Escape in nun'sdisguise," "Surgeon in an English army,"­he might \ have been more inventive," shethought. She felt a little depressed, for it washer first experience that men do not achievesanctity with gray hairs. It consoled her tohear an instructor state to a group of studentswho were visiting the. hospital some daysafter: "This man ascribes the loss of sensa­tion in various areas to the shock sustained bystanding knee deep in mud in a Cuban prison."But Mr. Asber, or " The Cuban General," asthe other patients called him, had an exhaust­less supply of strange tales and strange symp­toms. He continued to be treated with respect 1II., ,----------' ---' -418 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLYby the physicians and with contempt by theother patients. He was especially unpopularwith the soldiers. They were the keenest indetecting discrepancies in his stories, seemingto bear him a grudge for posing as a 'Cubansufferer. It was a role which they felt belongedexclusively to them.One morning as Laura was dusting the din­ing room, Mr. McNair, a soldier and sceneshifter in the Alhambra theatre, approachedher. "Say," he said, "you know the poetry theCuban General has been handing around and, passing off as his own?" "Yes," Laura ans­wered. "Well, yesterday we fellows watchedhim. He'd take up a magazine and read alittle and then begin to write and then whenhe thought there wasn't anyone a look in ',he'd take it up and read again. After a whilewe see him give it to one of the nurses and saythat 'twas just in the rough yet, it neededpolish in', or something like that. Then one ofthe fellows sneaked the book and we askedthe nurse for the paper and there we found itjust as he had copied it, only on his' r=aper hehad some words scratched out to make it lookhonest. Here it is now." He handed Laurathe paper. A glimpse of the title, "VitaBrevis," convinced her that it belonged to theGeneral. He had a prejudice against English."And then he had the priest come down andgive him extra communion," added McNairwith a still stronger intonation of scorn. TheHubbard ward patients always referred to therector as the "priest."Some weeks later Laura began her first nightduty in the same ward. One night Dr. Mar-:shall, the senior interne, came in and announcedthat he was going to take Mr. Asber d�wn tothe Chicago Medical Society. When he cameback a few hours later, Miss Lawson, thenight superintendent, was there. The naturalacid of Miss Lawson's nature had been intensi­fied by long months of night duty."Well, that diagnosis is settled," the doctorsaid, drawing off his gloves. "What is it?"asked Miss Lawson. "Leprosy," he answeredwith the cheerfulness of a young doctor whosediagnosis has been verified. "How long is hegoing to stay here?" asked Miss Lawson un­easily. "Oh not long, I presume," he repliedcarelessly. About two o'clock Laura sat down to get herfive o'clock medicines ready. The night or­derly, or the "Punch and Judy man," as one ofthe nurses called this sprightly personage, hadjust been down. to fell her that MIss Lawson. was busy and. would probably not come nearher until morning. It seemed unusually still,but soon she heard a slow, shuffling step com­ing down the corridor that led from the mainward. Mr. Asbers seldom slept. He oftencame out on some pretext when Laura was atthe other ward. He always, paused in histrembling walk to softly try the locked doorsof the medicine chest. "Well," he said, seat­ing himself carefully, "I have had my verdict."His face had that look of subdued elationwhich Laura had noticed as peculiar to pa­tients who had been to clinic. Whether it wasdue to simple delight at having been prominentor whether it was some more complex feeling,she could not determine. "It's leprosy, youknow," rolling up his sleeve and showing thegreat brown patches on his arm. "But youneedn't be afraid, it hasn't reached the contag­ious stage yet." "Are you sure it is that; isthere no mistake?" Laura said, trying tomerge her varying emotions in the scientificinterest she was supposed to feel., She couldnot realize that a thing so sensational couldactually be true of this sensation-loving man.So much was genuine, was there more? Butthe Cuban General was replying to her verbalquestion. --"Oh no, child," he said pityingly,""there's no mistake, Dr. Dodson summed it up.They all agreed it was a very rare case."F ;(�Where do you think you caught it?" "It'might have been Japan, or California. maybeChina or the Sandwich Islands, or possibly,"as another name occurred to him, "it was AsiaMinor. I shall have to go away now in a fewmonths to the Sandwich Islands. There are a,great many ladies and gentlemen there. Theyhave a very fine society.' "And I am not oldyet," he said after a pause. "Now how old doyou think me?" "Fifty," she said kindly. "NoI'm only forty-five." "You see/' he said, apol­ogeti.cally, as he stifly rose, "It's having this onmy mind that has made me so low spiritedlately." Then, with his blanket fluttering inthe draught, he went slowly from the room,leaving her alone with the creaking windowsand the mice scudding across the floor._ _� ��_ � _�', _" ,�_ • __ \.. �. � � ,-• _ • �.__ �" ,.. __ .. _���_:_�.. ... .:; - -� � - - w w.��' �," __ ....._ � �. � �.•--THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY 419THE CHRISTIAN UNION.Reception.The reception to incoming students given inCobb Chapel on Friday evening, July 7, by theChristian Union, under the immediate directionof the, Y. M. and Y. W. C. A., was a pro­nounced success. About five hundred personswere present, includmg the faculty, studentsand friends. A short musical program renderedby Miss Tarrant, one of Chicago's favoriteharpists, and Mrs. Cheney, a soloist and teacherin Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tenn.,made glad the early part of the evening. Themusic was followed by a short, spicy' talk byDean Judson on the work of the ChristianUnion and duties of the evening. During theclosing hours everybody shook hands' witheverybody else, and drank lemonade to hisown health. The University should be con­gratulated on the spirit of sociability that ismanifested by all the summer people. It isgood to be here.From the Settlement.The Chicago Woman's Club has loaned ustwo fine pictures for the summer, one byGrover and one by Wendt; and the South SideWoman's Club has loaned us a beautiful pastel-"Willow Bend."The House and Home Club of Evanstongave our Settlement Woman's Club a picniclast Thursday. The grounds were in a groveon the lake, where the children could wadeand all enjoy the cool breeze and the view ofthe lake.. Word comes every few days from the happyguests at the "Happy Home Cottage." Oneweek in the delightful country is too short,and each set of guests reluctantly gives placeto the next. . This week two mothers and ninechildren an� taking in the pure air and furnish­iFl� 'hearty appetites for the cook to satisfy'three times a day, we hope.Each week one of the residents take mothersand sick babies to the sanitarium for childrenat Jackson Park. After the mothers once Findtheir way, they go alone and take their, friends with sick little ones with them.The number- of children at the playground 'isincreasing each week. Since the hammockshave been put up a large number of mothers come with their babies and luncheon and stayall day.Ground was broken for the new gymnasiumlast week: Some of the club boys and girlsand the residents and friends met at nineo'clock on the g-round last Wednesday morn­ing and proceeded to do the "breaking." Aboy that belonged to one of the first clubs re­moved the first shovelful. Miss Me Do well,boys from the different clubs and the residentsthen followed, each removing a little earth andrejoicing· that the beginning was actually beingmade.Mr. Stitt Wilson has recently given a fe.wout-of-door talks, on Gross avenue, near 47thstreet,to the workmen from the Stock Yards.. Recent guests of the Settlement are Mr.Edward Markham of California, Mr Stitt Wil­son and Miss Cora Stanton Brown of Bloom­ington, Ill.The regular annual report of the Settlementshows that the University and its friends aregiving several thousand dollars each year forthe work. An urgent invitation was extendedto all students to visit the Settlement, See"Summer Trips."Evening Meetings.. The meetings held in Y. M. C. A. roomshave been well attended. N eady all the chairswere occupied last time. Many of the summerstudents told of work done, battles won, andstruggles not yet fought out in their own lives.Many testified to the same' "Love of Jesus"which has moved so mightily among us duringthe year. The Sunday evening service lastsonly from 7 to 7:45, leaving time enough toattend church afterward. The mid-week meet­ing will take the nature of a: song-praise ser­vice and be held on the' steps east of Haskellor in the hall, if the weather is not favorablefor an out-of-door meeting. It is hoped thatthe good interest of these opening days maybe carried throughout the quarter.Mr. Merrifield will lead the meeting nextSunday evening. Subject, "] oyful Service."The Vespers address of last Sunday, deliv­ered by Professor Burton; was rich and full, ashis addresses always are. His subject was "Thebuildings' and grounds. We had, however, avisit indoors, which was all the more enjoyable.Miss Mc Dowel l took time to explain fully theline of the work and the methods employedin carrying it out.' There is much of interestat the Settlement, and any student who fails tovisit it while in the University, will do an in­justice both to himself and the Settlement.Another trip will be announced.July 22.

Dr. Burton saidthat the filial relation of Jesus to God as HisFather, was that of ideal sonship; that the as­sociation with his father was full of joy; hisfaith in his father unwavering; his obe-dienceto his father's will perfect, though at timeshard and humiliating the task. His devotionto men was also unswerving. They need-ed re­pentance, forgiveness and a new �irth. Thesehe brought to them,and taught them their needsand duties.Vespers.The Vesper Service Sunday, July 9, was de­voted to a discussion of the University Settle­ment work. Dr. George Adam Smith spoke atle-ngth on the world settlement movement. Atthe outset of his address he remarked that thetendency of modern religious thought was towork physical helpfulness and comfort. thependulum has swung far-very far-towardsthe practical. Dr. Smith believes enthusiasti­cally in settlement work as a movement whichtends to purify government and better mankind.But he places much emphasis on the necessityof leading men to accept Jesus Christ as a per­sonal Savior. He paid a tribute of praise tothe work of Messrs. Moody and Sankey in hisown Scotland. He also spoke well of Scottishmunicipal government. Dr. Smith· believesfirmly in prayer, and thinks it safe for a manto advance only on his knees.Summer Trips.The first of the series of Saturday summerexcursions was taken Saturday afternoon, July8. A party of thirty-seven students, under thedirection of Mr. Hubbard, took a round throughthe parks and boulevards. They drove throughWashington Park, along the lake shore, andspent some time among the animals in LincolnPark. All returned to the University in goodspirits, a well satisfied and well repaid Tally-hoparty.The second of the summer excursions wastaken Saturday morning, the 15th. A largecompany of students lead by Miss McDowell,went to theUniversity Settlement. The floodedstreet and pouring rain kept many at homewho had planned to go. The rain made a visitto the stock yards impossible, .and permittedus only an umbrella VIew of the SettlementI The Yerkes Observatory.There will be an excursion to the YerkesObservatory at Williams Bay and Lake Geneva,Wisconsin, on Saturday, July 22.

""Anything this side of murder."."Well, it's lots harder than committing mur-der.""Sounds interesting; what is it? ""Answer a letter for me,"Margaret appeared at the door, and gazedupon the little figure of her room-mate curledamong the cushions. Then she burst out:"You indolent little wretch, why don't youanswer your own letters? ""Beca use I can't! It takes all. the wisdom ofthe ages to answer this one."Margaret sat down at the desk and tried thepens.o "Has that Harvard brother asked for advicein his love affairs, or has your father demandedthe reason of your over drawn-allowance?""Neither one-its much worse!""N ote from the President threatening im­mediate expulsion unless you stpp cutting yourclasses? ""N 0, no, stupid, its this."Margaret read the little note through, thenshe looked at the figure on the couch, andthere was a look in her eyes that even the lit­tle room-mate didn't understand, and she kneweverything."Well," she said, "what are you going to doabout it? There is no doubt about the man'slove for you. Shall you, meet him, as he asksyou to do, and give him his answer? ""I don't know; I want you to answer for me.

"As well as I shall ever love any man.""Do you think you would be happy withhim? ""Oh, yes; perfectly. We like the samethings, and he would be very good to me.",There was something like scorn in the eyesthat flashed upon her for a moment. Then thegirl at the desk arose."It is a serious question," she said. "I willgo into my room and think it over a bit.""And you will decide it for me, dear? ""Yes.""Well, I'll have a nap until you come back."The door closed, and there was silence, savefor the occasional sound of convulsive sobbing;but it was not loud enough to wake the littlesleeper.* * * * *At five o'clock a trim little figure trippedalong Rogers street and was joined by the stal­wart one of a man."Dearest, you have come to me," he said,"And your answer?

But college customs, like manyother things, have to be trained and guardedeven in the East. For example, at Princeton,the Philadelphian Society, an organizationwhich cbrresponds to our Y. M. C. A., gets thenames of all those who take the i examinationsfor that college and sends to each a little bookwhich gives information about the collegework, about boarding h-ouses, literary societies,athletics, musical organizations, etc., etc. Aprospective freshman may through this agencylearn the history of the University; he maylearn just what he has to do to matriculate,and this, this is a great deal. He may alsolearn the various college cheers so that he willbe a valuable "rooter" at the first foot-ballgame; he may learn that the glee club will beglad to welcome him as a new member provid­ing he is not worse than the majority. A fresh­man armed with such a book is wise. Whenhe sees some sophomores coming down thestreet arrn-inarrn he ,d<?es not try to shovethem off the sidewalk, but finds some excuseto move to one side. He does not ask inno­cently what hazing is like there, but hears ev­erything and says nothing.In the article on college customs the follow­ing appears:422 7HE UNIVERSITY, OF CHICAGO WEEKLY�be 1llntveratt\2 of <!btcago UUleekl�.EDITORIAL, BOARD.JAMES M.

Her face, irregular in it's beauty,might have belonged to a woman of twenty orone of thirty.The college senior watched her every dayas he came out to play, and as the tournamentprogressed and he played nearer and nearer tothe last round he fancied he saw in her a fur­tive interest in his success.She was always there in the front row, andso when he ran after stray balls, that alwaysseemed to roll to her feet, he looked into hereyes and they smiled back frank encourage­ment.I t was in the semi-finals that he met hisWaterloo, and as he turned to go back into theclub house he looked at her, and she glancedback at him with perfectly frank sympathy."It's almost worth the defeat," he said tohimself as he hurried away to change hisclothes, so that he might go back and look ather.He speculated to himself about her, won­dered who she was, and finally decided thatshe was "about my style," as he expressed itto himself; and so it happened that 'his admir­ation had quite reached the burning point atthe night of the tournament dance.He longed to know whether she would bethere, and he stood around looking for her;escaping the hospitable' club member who in- ,sisted on introducing him to all the girls." Don't you want to meet these grrls r" saidthe hospitable club member at last." Oh, they are so young," replied the college­senior. "Please, please don't introduce me toany fle-dglings-I simply can't chatter!"So the h. c. m. left him to his own devices.When he had almost despaired, she came, look­ing lovlier than ever in the half-light. The II IKelogg Speed is still in Europe, but he ex­pects to be back in time for foo't ball in thefall.424 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLYcollege senior flew to the hospitable club mem­ber and seized him by the arm-- " There she is-introduce me to her! "The h. c. m. marveled, but said naught.So he met her, and she gave him threedances, looking vastly pleased when he pre­sumed to ask her for so many. As for him, hejust stood around and watched her in deliciousanticipation-and waited his turn. At last Itcame, and they glided away together. Shewas silent during the dance; and so, as he ledher to a rustic seat beneath the trees, he ven­tured to look at her.•. What are you thinking? " he said."Oh, I'm thinking of what a perfectly finetime I'm having. You know this is my firstreally grown-up party. Of course I've gone tolittle things with my brothers, but nothing likethis, for mamma always said I never could goto the club dances until I had finished myfreshman year at high school, at least. I usedto beg her and beg her, but she never wouldlet me come-and so you see I really am toohappy too speak-and all the college men aredancing with me-j ust think how much I'llhave to tell the other girls to-morrow aboutthe Eastern .m en who asked me to dance, andall the things they said to me"-., I thin k I hear the music again-shall we goback? " he said. And silently he walked be­side her and gave her over to mamma.,* * * *"What's the matter, old chap, aren't you Ihaving a good time? You look awfully dis­gusted-'-have you been cutting a dance i " in­quired the hospitable club member." No, I've been shattering my idol," said thecollege seriior-but the h. c. m. didn't hearhim, he was off for his next partner.rIajors and Minors.W .. D.
