Tampa, Fla., May—It is now almost certain that Brigadier Gen eral J. F. Wade will have active xommand of the United States troops in the field in Cuba. Both Generals Wade and Shatter will, it is said, accompany the expedi tion wlitfct it sails, but the latter, although having command with headquarters, as he is the ranking general, will not direct the move- meat of the troops in the field. Authority for such^ction, it is as serted, was received to-day from Washington, although nothing is obtainable from official sources on the subject. The arrangements for the em barkation of troops are being pushed with tne utmost vigor. The Florida and Olivette are being put in shape for the reception of the soldiers, and the Mascotte, which came in to-day, will be taken in hand to-morrow and prepared for service as a transport. in verse tate, sized a: “Kau- sshoppf'rs lows care jackrabhit apg; still r to aee ” yd joined ast night r.

For instance, if you publish jokes with whiskers on them, some will say that you should be in a lunatic joint; if you dont print something to smile at, they say you are a pessimistic fossil* If you spread yourself and write a good original article, they will say it is stolen. If you reprint an article, they say you can’t write. If you say a deserving word for a man, you are partial; if you com pliment the ladies, the men are jealous; and if you don’t, the ver dict of the ladies is to the effect that your paper is not fit to use in th2 construction of a bustle.
