TJie Second Regimer
News aui
Headquarter 2d South- Carolina
Volunteer infantry, Camp Columbia,
Savana, Cuba, Monday. January 9,
?399.- The 2d South Carolina is now
comfortably camped on Cuban soil,
and it is the first regiment of Smth
Carolina soldiers to . leave the Ameri
can Contiueut. It is a notable f?ct
that the sentiment of the men have
changed considerably since leaving
Savannah. Everyone is pleased here,
and even those who wanted to be dis
charged while in the United States
??reglad DOW that they did not have
their own way about it. Quite a
-camber of men who were homesick
vhile at Camp Onward are buoyant
,and happy here. There is nothing
hut guard duty to do, so it is utily
t>ne day in every week that the men
have to work.
Oar camp site is a beautiful one.
It is situated about eight miles from
the eity of Havana on a chain of hills.
In the distance mountains are in plain
view, and io the southward the city
of Marianao may be seeu. Two sides
of oar camp are bordered by rows of
.royal palm trees, the trees being about
eight or ten feet apait. The rai In ?ad
Tanning from Havaua to Marianao
borders the camp on the west and the
?amp of the 4? h Illinois ?o the east,
?. large and beautiful banana grove is
just across the road to the north, and
near the camp line ie the home of a
wealthy Cuban family. Here is to be
seen a most beautiful flower garden,
beautiful palms, fl >wera and trees go
to make up a .garden a woman would
.nail "just lovely." The hills around
tts form a pict ure-qne scene. Words
?ail to express the loveliness of the
country-that is, English words do;
j maybe when I leam to speak Spanish
? will be able to give the readers of
ihe News and Courier some adequate
idea of what we have seen aud what
beautiful hCeuery we behold every day.
-Everyone here i? iu ecatacy over the
murouuding*.
The Cubans seem to be. proud to
'?ave the American soldiers with them,
and everyone nods and gives a fellow
.la blue a pleasant smile and some un
intelligible lingo when they meet.
The widowed occupant of the mag
nificent dwelling referred to above
must have given Col Jones such an
irresistible stui'e that he was forced
to speak to her, for he met her and
-called at the house. Here he was
treated so nicely that to day be took
f the regimental bind there to s- reuade
"?he family. There are six young
ladies in the family and some of them
speak Eugliih quite fluently, and,
iaowing ?our correspondent's senti
ments, the Co onel invited him, along
.with Col. Thompson, to go. too. The
entire family were strong Cuban sym
pathizers, and they are always glad to
entertain American soldiers. We
vere given a royal entertainment and
they expressed themselves as being
highly pleased at the compliment
Col. Jones had paid them by bringing
the band to serenade them. Gue of
the youug ladies asked for the baud
. to play the national hymn, and when
*3ft rendered "The Star Spangled Ban
ner" she said that was not the one.
"Dixie" and "Yankee Doodle" were
tried, but neither was the One she
wanted. Finally Prof. Trowbridge
struck up "There'll bea Hot Time
in the Old town To night," and the
senorita clapped her hands and ex
claimed: "That's it!" She had evi
dently heard it often when the regu
lars were encamped here. If what I
experienced this afternoon is a fa:r
specimen of Cuban hospitality, then
..it is unsurpassed even by our own.
The regiment reached the wharf at
Havana Friday morning early. In a
short time the men disembarked and
started for camp, but two battalions
were carried back and remained aboard
the boat till Saturday morning. Col.
Thompson's battalion came on and
pitched tents enough to accommodate
the meu. The wagons were kept busy
hauling the baggage, but when the 2d
and od battalions reached camp Satur
day about 2 o'clock there were no
tents here for them, nor did they ar
rive till Sunday. The men were
forced to stay out in the air all Satur
day afternoon and Saturday night. A
?ittle after dark rain began falling and
continued all night. Everyone got
thoroughly wet iud much baggage was
damaged or ruined entirely. The
guns suffered terribly from the effects
of the weather. Of course, the Gov
ernment doesn't care how much the
men suffer. The soil is red clay and
soon became wet and boggy. It sticks
to one's ?hoes like grim dea'h and
we were carn inc around from one to
five pounds of Cuban soil with us all
day yesterday. The sun, however,
has dried it all off now ?nd the laud is
as hardes ordinary South Carol:-a
rock.
This is a beautiful country andas
peculiar as it is pretty. The nigh I s
are almost unpleasantly cou! and in

most unbearably hot. In the shade it

is pleasant, as there is always ade
l?irhrful hrei tn fan ?ne. Gen.
Kiefer told me nu Saturday that, it did
. not rain here exe? pt in summer, but
that we wu aid probably Gad the dew
very heavy I" less than six hour-*
there was falling fr.?m the heavens
what S??uth Carolinians would fall a
very heav\ ram. and it kept falling all
m?ht. N"t bss ihau two or thne
inches of water fell during the night.
A ver> heavy dew, indeed. [ am glad
that it was not. so heavy la-t night.
Our march from the boat to camp
Was a long and hot one, but the scen
ery was so novel and so attractive
that the march seemed short to the
men On every hand there was some
j thing to attract attention. We passed
through four or five miles of streets
land everv where the residents of ?he
I city would wave United States flags
and sometimes Cuban flags, too, and
the tueu cheered themselves hoarse.
! As we neared the suburbs and as we
passed through the country at eveiy
house flags were waved and the f?ol- "
dfers cheered. Wine and fruit were J
given the men almost all along the
way and crowds of Cabans followed us
the entire way to camp.
The railrood passes within fifty feet
of the tents, aud the depot at Beuna
Vista is not more than three hundred
I yards off. The train passes about
every hour. ? nse the singular, as
. there is but one train on the road. It
ruus from Havana to Mara?an, a dis
tance of sixteen or eighteen miles, and
returns, making as many trips as pos
sible day and night. The cars are all
I always pretty well filled, too. There
; are three classes where we only use
, two. The fare from any point on the
road to any other point is the came;
j mat is, distance mak> s no difference
j The fare from here to Quemados,
j about three miles, is the same as from
! here to Mariatian, a distance of about
? eight miles. From Havana to Mari
j auao it is th ; same, about seven
cents. This is the first class; s-e
oud class is cheaper, and third class
( cheaper still
The soldiers go to the neighboring
towns in great numbers. Your corres
pondent went with a party of officers
lo M a ria nao, thence back by Sama
and Quemados yesterday. The stores
aud workshops were all open and
work going on as oa any other day.
No notice of Sunday seemed to be
taken. The shoe aud hat factories
were all at work, and the saloons and
other stores were doing what looked
like a rushing business. I regretted
then that we were forced to work ou
Sunday to get our camp ready for the
night, for it did not set such an ex
cellent example to the natives. At
Sama we noticed quite a crowd, a
noisy, cheering crowd, in a magnifi
cent building ou a principal s reet and
upon inquiry (only inquiry across the
street,) we found that cock fighting
was going on.
At Quemados we noticed some men
leading cows aud the ropes had been
placed through the beasts' noses in
stead of around their horns, as we put
them. 1 don't know bow the thing was
done, but the poor animals were
bleeding profusely at the nose aud
the rope was red with blood for at
least a foot from each cow's head.
There are provos' guards at all of
these towns, but there does not seem
to be any need of them unless it is to
prevent American soldiers from rais
ing disturbance, for they seem to be
the ooisest crowd.
Last week a soldier io the 2nd
Louisiana regiment, in camp right
near us, shot and killed a fellow sol
dier. The murderer was tried by
Court martial and sentenced to be
shot. There seemed to be no mitigat
ing circumstances at all, and the sen ?
tence was approved and read at dress
parade yesterday afternoon. Accord
ingly the unfortunate fellow was shot
to death at sunrise this morning on a
hill in plain view of all the surround
ing regiments.
It is a hard matter to get a pass to
go into the citv of Havana. An ap
plication for such a pass has to go
through the entire length of army red
tape, from captain to major general,
so our men will not visit there so
often. I am happy in the idea that
au official visit will take me there on
Wednesday.
We get a tri-weekly mail, Tuesdays,
Thursdays and Saturdays, and our
mail leaves three times a week. A
hater, itt order to go for two cents,
must be endorsed by a commissioned
officer of the re?intent. I heard a
lieutenant grumbling this morning
because he had tu write "soldier's
letter ' and his name and rank in the
comer of the envelope, carrying a let
ter to hts "eirl."
There are many Cuban people here |
win? speak . xe lient rin?lish, but their |
cognomens are simply unpronounce

But we'll get used to it bye and bye.
and theu we will go hettie and brag
about what we know of Cuba and its
people.
The first day we were here T bought
a newspaper from an old fellow, who
rattled off a lot of what sounded like
ens.-, words at me, and gave him an
American nickel fur it. I turned to
leave him, wheu he called to me ann
gave me for change a silver piece
about the size of a dime, two large
and une .small copper piece. I thought
tie was cheating himself, hut he in
sisted upon my keeping the change.
I was accompanied by Lieut. Hawze.
aud we soon weut inna restaurant
for lunch. We got ham, eggs, bread
aud coffee, aud when I held out some
mouey he took the very change the
news mau had given me and seemed
tu be satisfied. I was.
The peuple here are honest-at
least rome of them. Tn that same
restaurant I forgot and left my kodak.
L thought of it in about two hours and
went back for it, wondering all the
time how I'd make the galoot under
stand that I was not a fool, but when
I got there he recognized me and at
once walked to his desk and brought
me the little camera
Those members of the regiment who
were left in the United States will
stay there if they apply for transpor
tation. Coi. Jones received orders to
this eff"?t this morning. -. When a man
belonging to one of the regiments now
in Cuba applies for transportation he
is discharged, paid up and given
transportation to his home. If any
of those now in the United States
want to join the regiment here, the
best way to do is to say nothing to
?he army officers about it and pay
their fare down here.
Private Ed Groves, of Company G,
met with a very painful, though not
necessarily dangerous, accident this
morning. While pranking with a
large 45 calibre army revolver the
weapon was accidentally discharged,
t^e ball tearing off the little finger nf
the left hand and p*s>ing through the
left thigh, causing a painful fle*h
wound. The loss of the finger is com
plete. Mr Groves is getting along
nicely now.
Major Wakener has been detailed as
sanitary officer of the camp.
Lieut. Dargan and the signal corps
cime over on the Panama. Lieut.
Cox is the only officer of the regiment
now in the "States.**
Three captains of the regiment were
"run in" by the provosts for being
out without passes while we were on
the boat Friday night.
The captains are not much troubled
now issuing passes to men who want
to go to town at night. The men are
not "hankering ' to be out at night.
Our camp is near the ocean, and
crowds go in surf bathing daily.
The companies are remarkably
healthy. Fewer men are sick now
chan ever before in the history of the
regiment.
Letters addressed to men in care of
their comp my and regiment, Havana,
Cuba will reach them.

A teacher in one of the Cleveland
public schools said one day to her
class in English composition:
"Now, I wish every member of the

between a grocer and one of his cus

Among the compositions handed in
was the following by a sweet little girl
who may some day grow up to be a
second Octave Thanet or a Mary E.
Wilkins:

The lady replied, "A pound of tea "

Funiij^deas of Beauty.
It is curious to note the odd notions
of beauty which prevail iu differeut
nations
lu Fiji the native womeo paint their
faces with red aud white stripes as au
ornament. Thc womeu of Greenland
c<?ver their faces with blue and yellow,
while Arabian beauties stain their
lips blue and their fingers and toes red.
Thc pearly teeth of thc poet and
novelist wuuld not be valued by SOUJC
of the eastern and Polynesian nations,
lu Mucassar the women paint their
teeth red and yellow, in such a way
ttiat a red tooth follows a yellow one
and alternately. The teeth of t c
Tonquinse are as black as art eau
make them. The dyeing occupies
three or four days aud is done to both
boys aud girls when they are about
twelve years of age.
Duriug the whole operation, says
Tid Bits, they never take auy nour
ishmeut for fear of beiug poisoned by
thc pigment if they swallowed what
required mastication/ Every perron,
high or low, rich and poor, is obliged
to uudergo this somewhat objectiona
ble opt ration, as it is alleged that it
would be a disgrace to human nature
to have teeth white like those of dogs
or elephants.
In Japan fashion compels married
women to blacken their teeth, not,
however, as au ornament, but to make
them more ugly and save them from
temptation.
The Sunda islanders sometimes
blacken all the teeth but two with
burned cocoanut, covering the two ex
cepted teeth with thin plates of gold
or silver. The same tribe is in the
habit of employing their old womeu to
dress up the teeth of the youths and
maidens at wooing times. Thecaniue
teeth are filed to a fine, smooth edge,
and the body of the tooth made con
cave, or they will notch the edge of
the teeth like a fine saw as an addi
tional means of beautifying.
This mutilation of the teeth is ob
served by many of the savage or un
civilized races iu various parts of the
world. In the Malay Archipelago
the uatives file their teeth into points
like those of a saw or pierce them
with holes, into which they insert
studs. The Macassar people some
times pull out two front teeth in order
ti? supply their place with teeth of
pure gold or silver. Some African
nines kuock out their teeth, on the
grmud that they do not vish to look
like beasts. Ou the Upper Nile four
frout teeth are always knocked out,
but further south only the two upper
incisors are di.-peused with.
in some parts of thc world thc shape
of the head is of great importance.
Many American Indians admire a head
so extremely flattened as to appear to
us idiotic. The natives of the north
west coast compress the head into a
p outed cone, while the inhabitants of
Arakhau admire a broad, smooth fore
head, and in order to produce it they
fasten a plate of lead on the heads of
: the ucw boru children.
In some countries the feminine
headgear is carried to singular extrav
agance. The Chinese lady carries on
her head the figure of a bird, which is
composed of copper or gold, according
to the quality of the owner. The
Myautsc women carry on their heads a
thin board, about a foot long and six
inches broad. With this they cover
their hair and seal it with wax.
With the Tahitaos to be called
"long nose" is considered an insult,
a id they compress the noses and fore
heads of their children for the sake of
beauty. The same custom is preva
1 int aniODg the Malays aud the natives
of Brazil. ID some parts of the world
the nose is pierced, rings, sticks,
feathers and other ornaments being
inserted in the holes
The ancient Egyptians and Assy
rians used paint to make their eye
brows seem wider; the Arabians of
thc present day go a step further io
the use of paint. They endeavor to
produce the impression that their eye
brows grow down to the middle of the
no-c. and meet there. Persian women
paint a black linc around their faces
with a variety of figures. The In
dians of Paraguay eradicate their eye
brows and eyelashes saying that they
do not wish to look like horses.
In China and neighboring countries
thc finger nails art; allowed to grow to
a monstrous length as a symbol of
mihility, ladies wearing silver cases to
protect them, lu some parts of Africa
yellow or purple nails are considered
fashionable, while the Turkish women
tinge their nails willi blue color.

Nine times ia

impossible for a woman to be in good gen
eral health when some local trouble is con
tinually nagging at her nerves and disar
ranging the natural functions of every organ
of the body. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription is the best of all medicines for
women who suffer from local weakness
and disease peculiar to their sex. It acts
directly on thc delicate and important
organs concerned. It makes them strong,
healthy, vigorous and elastic. It allays in
flammation, heals ulceration, soothes pain,
tones and builds up thc nerves and ban
ishes the usual discomforts of the expec
tant months. It makes baby's advint easy
and almost painless. It enables every
organ of thc body to perform its natural
functions without unnatural interference
from a pain-tortured nervous system. It
corrects all irregularities. A woman who
is made well in this way will recover her
natural beauty of form and feature and her
natural amiability of character and temper.
Thousands of women have'testified to its
merits. An honest dealer will nut urge a
substitute for a little extra profit.
