For a certain fiery editorial he was deported to Centa and kept there two years.

Then he went to Madrid and assumed the management of La Tribuna and in 1890 returned to Havana and resumed the publication of La Fraternidad.
ANOTHER EXILE.
Another beloved exile from the land of his birth is Senor Jose White.
His mother was a colored woman of Matanzas.

At the age of 16 Jose wrote a mass for the Matanzas orchestra and gave his first concert.
With the proceeds he entered the Conservatory of Paris, and in the following year won the first prize as violinist among thirty-nine contestants.

He soon gained an enviable reputation among the most celebrated European violinists, and, covered with honors, returned to Havana in January of '75.

But his songs were sometimes of liberty, and in June of the same year the Spanish government drove him out of the country.
