ATTAINS HIGH RANK
IN THE SPANISH ARMY
c
General Weyler, Marquis of
Teneriffe, Becomes Captain
General.
BY LA MA1UU l?i: DE tfONTEXOY.
T may bkhii timely, since ju.-*t at
Ipresent Cuba is once more the acetic,
of Insurrectional y troubles, to mak.
known that General Valerian VVey
ler, Marquis of Teneriffe, who played
??> Important a role in the recent hls
tory of the Island, has lust been pro?
moted to the very highest rank in
the Spanish army, that of captain-gen?
eral. This Is the Spanish equivalent for
Held marshal in Great Britain, Ger?
many, Austria and Ru?sla. and In these
countries, an?! in Spain, as well as
everywhere else, the Insignia of office
eonslat of a golden baton. Weylcr Is
one of the pillars of the Spanish mon?
archy, although op his return to
Europe from the Antilles in .189S, he
was so bitter ntra,inst the government
for the poor support which he ha I re
C? Ived that Ik- was suspected of Car
llsm.
To-dny. In spite r,r his brtlsquerlc and
soldierlike bltintness, he Is the most
popular commaiid-r among the rank
and Hie of the army. Is honored for
his straightforwardness, loyalty and
Incorruptibility, and. known to have
the soldiers' welfare at heart, there Is I
little danger as loner ax he lives of |
eitbrr CarllStS or Republicans ever be- j
Ing able to organize oik- of those mill- ;
tary "pronunclamentos*' against the I
government and crown which through- j
out the greater part of the nineteenth
century were the blight of Spain.
Save for his official duties and his
constant Intercourse with King Alfonso,
Captain-General Weyler leads a very
? inlet life, lie is but rarely seen at
the opera, at theatres, or In society.
He is devoted to hiB family. By the
way, his marriage was something In
the nature of a romance. For the Mar
qulse de Teneriffe la the daughter of
highly dignified and honest hard-work
Inir p.-asants, on one of the islands of
t-.f Balearic group, where beautiful
women are the rule. Instead of the
amazing exception, and of which he
himself Is a native.
Weyler had attained the rank of
colonel, and was in command of a
crack regiment stationed in Mallorca,
when he fell In love with Teresa San?
ta-ana. Weyler notoriously abhorred
Don Juancsque methods of laying
siege to the feminine heart, and as soon
as he was sure his affection was re?
ciprocated, he resolved to make th?
lovely "paysana" his wife, though she
was lg-norant?as the Spanish proverb
says?"whether the sun went round the
earth or the earth round the sun,"
and had not even been taught to r. ad
or write. He did not disclose ills mat?
rimonial projects to his family and
friends, but made preparations for car
rylng them into execution. Twenty
four hours before the lime fixed for
the celebration of the wedding, the
officers of his regiment received re?
quests to meet him at a certain church
door early th* next morning.
He was then, as now. extremely pop?
ular with his subordinates, whatever
their rank, though the strictest dis?
ciplinarian, and thus the regimental
corps d'oftlciers accepted the invitation
unanimously.
At the hour Indicated they found
him awaiting them at the main en?
trance, and when they gathered about
him. h" addressed them as follows:
"Rrother-oflicers. none of my people
know that I am to be married this
morning. T did not tell them, for rea?
sons of my ov n. mainly because I
detest useless discussion. But I do not
want to go to the altar without my
comrades. So I asked you to stand
by me as witnesses an 1 friends, and I
want von to note what I shall do when
the officiating priest shall have unite.i
me to my dear young tlancee." Tills
terse speech was hailed With really
heartfelt acclamations, and the mill
