tening, until lambing time, great care be-
ing taken to keep them quiet, not allow
ing them to be rushed through any narrow
gateway, or to have to step over any board
in going to or from their shelter. Nearly
all the trouble in Landing is the result OF
mismanagementd during pregnancy.
For this hot-house lamb business the
lambing season should come in the
month of January, when good, warm
sheds will be necessary, and a few small
pens, about Axe feet, should be provided,
into which the ewes should be put as
they show signs of lambing, where the
lambs can be dried off, and there viii be
much less danger of eve disowning her
lamb, and in a day or two she can be
turned out in the shed to make room for
others, so that eight or ten of these pens
will be sufficient for one hundred ewes.
This may seem good deal of trouble,
but with the prices that early lambs gem
orally bring, and by forcing both eve
and lamb so that they can both be mar
keted while prices are good, they will
abundantly pay for all necessary care

 IoUIoUE, May 20.-On Sunday morning at about 4:30 o'clock the Chilian insursent torpedo cruiser Almirante Lynch was sighted off Punta de Piedra, in Iquique bay, by the Chilian warship Almirante Cochrane, which immediately gave chase to the cruiser, but was soon left far behind by the faster sailing torpedo steamer. The Almirante Lynch steamed away in a northerly direction and was never within range of the ironclad's guns
 In the meantime the authorities had tel egraphsd to Pisagua, where the Huascar and Magallanes were anchored, and these vessels started to cut of the retreat of the Almirante Lynch and sighted her of Ju- min. The Huascar fired some light shots, which were returned by the enemy. The Almirante Lynch, however, gradually got away from her pursuers, apparently with out any damage. She met a small boat containing woman and two men off Ca lena Buena and obliged them to abandon the boat. The Lynch also stopped the water boat Juanits en route from Africa to Iquique and gained some information.
 Great excitement prevailed yesterday evening when the Imperial was seen of Cavenacha. About ten miles from the coast she began firing rapidly, as if fight ing desperately, but no enemy was in sight. The Cochrane and O'Higgins went out at full steam, but the Imperial soon disappeared. Nobody is able to explain the strange conduct of the Imperial.

How 1t Was Caused-What Engineer
 Herrfck Says.


 TARRYrowN, N. Y., May 20.-Engineer Herrick of the construction train which was destroyed by exploding dynamite yes terday, believes the disaster was caused by a spark from an Italian workman's pipe. He said to-day that while looking from his cab window back at the car he saw an Italian smoking a clay pipe. The man was sitting on one of the boxes. Herrick said that the Italians always smoke more or less while they worked. He is positive the fire was not caused by spark from his engine nor e hot box on the fiat car. There is no doubt in his mind but that the calamity was caused by the premature explosion of the great quantity of dynamite through the carelessness of one of the men in dropping a spark from his pipe. Herrick's testimo- ny will be taken by Coroner Mitchell. The funeral of ten of the victims will be held tomorrow from St. Therea's church.
