 bia-She Was too Deep at the Head.
 New York, Aug 2.-The United States commerce destroyer Columbia, next to the Minneapolis the fastest warship of her class a1oat, arrived here today from her race against time across the Atlantic. No warship ever built crossed the ocean in the same time. These are the figures:
 Time from the Needles of Wight to Sandy Hook lightship, six days. twenty three hours, forty-nine minutes. Course, SIP knots; average hourly speed, 1853; best hourly run, 20.60 best four hour run; S0.50. The daily runs were from a. m. of the 26th of July at the Needles to noon of the following day 405 knots. and to noon on each succeeding day 467, 470 457, 455, 453 and 405 to Sandy Hook light ship at S:45 a. m. today. On July 30 at ? a. m. it was squally and a storm threatened. The wind was southwest by west, heavy seas came over the bows and for four hours the speed was reduced to knots an hour.
 In the evening of the same day in lat itude 46.02, longitude 4S20 the Columbia ran near an ice berg, which was about 150 yards long, 100 yards wide and 45 feet high.
 The Columbia took in pilot 400 miles east of Sandy Hook, only slowing up sufficiently for the purpose. She passed quarantine shortly before noon, report Ing all well on board and dropping an- chor in the North river less than an hour later.
 Her four great tunnels were covered with salt crystals where they were not black with smoke. Soot covered the up- per structure and her sides were smeared and streaked with rust. Her decks were covered with coal dust and cinders and altogether she looked as though an early securing at the navy yard would be the best thing for her. Capt George w Sumner said to a reporter:
 q consider her run across very success ful. We came under natural draught. It was a smooth run, though we had lit- tie rough weather We slowed down only once before head seas. We met some fog, but went through it at full speed with our eight boilers and three screws. The winds were varying, but westerly generally. We had on what we call battle hatches throughout making us water tight for ward The vessel was somewhat down at the head when We started despite the

Holmes.
 Memphis, Aug. 2.-Hatch, alias Cald- we'll alias Fogg, alias Mascot, the con- vict doing time in the Arkansas peniten- tiary, who has been alluded to as one Of the right hand confederates of Holmes. is undoubtedly a huge fake so far as any connection he may have had with Holmes and his crimes is concerned, and it is most probable that the police of Memphis will be able to show that at the time this man of many aliases claims to have been operating with Holmes in Texas he was q ng term In the peniten- tiary of Tennessee. His first term in the penitentiary in this state was for horse stealing and was for twenty-one years, but he was pardoned and at once re- stunned his old habits. He is not at all the kind of a man Holmes would select for his confederate, and his travels have not carried him outside of Tennessee and Ar kansas. .

Callahan was in the box for Atlanta and did some of the best work that has been seen on the Atlanta diamond this season. He was hit freely, but his head work and the fielding he did made his work most admirable. Hahn, the Nashville kid, pitched for Mo bile and was good Score:

 Owing to the high quality of the Sherwin- Williams company's paint we have found 1t difficult to build up profitable trade in these goods. The whole trouble is, the goods are too high priced for the average consumer
 The result Is, we have stock of several hundH kgallons that is selling too slow, and in order to push them we will sell to any bona fde property owner or agent for use only upon his own property at $1.3o per gallon, provided we have the colors selected in stock. No speculation allowed. These prices do not apply to colors we have to order from factory.

A STRIKE AVERTED.

Pennsylvania Operators Accept the Propo-
 sition of the Miners.
 Pittsburg, Aug. "A compromise has been effected and the strike of the west ern Pennsylvania coal miners averted. This mornings session of the miners convention was given up to a discussion of propositions submitted by a commit tee representing the coal operators
 At yesterdays session the proposition had been placed by the miners in the form of resolution, which extended un- til October 1, the wage rate in the in termediate time to remain at 60 cents per ton, after that date GA cents in cash pay ments and 60 cents where there are com panies stores or coupon system in vogue. This resolution was adopted by the convention, and the operators were notified.
 This morning the committee of the Operators association met committee of miners and ratified the resolution of the miners committee. The operators proposition had named November 1 as the time for wage readjustment.
 Their acceptance of the miners date, October l, is a decided victory for the latter.

BiCyCleDigeSt.

The Bicycle has established
itself. It is an institution.
Though it has become a neces-
sity of modern life, it has not
ceased to be a source of pleas
ure and those who ride it for
business purposes still find
their greatest enjoyment in
the saddle.
Taking it for granted that
you have decided to ride, and
naturally want the best wheel
for your money, we wish to
point out to you some of the
superior features of the
BARNES SPECIAL.
One taking and distinctive
feature of the Barnes wheel,
is the method of brazing the
frame Joint. When a Bicycle
is reinforced from the outside
it resembles a sore thumb
with a rag around tan apt
but homely smile. Our joint is
not a sore thumb. The con-
nections are punched from
steel formed into pieces of
such shape that they encircle
one tube, rendering it doubly
strong and project therefrom
to form a stud at the desired
angle over which the adjoining
tube can be fitted and brazed
firmly. The steel connections
are secured on each side by
secondary pieces, and all of
them brazed as one piece serve
as a pointed reinforcement to
the second tube.
Bearings First quality tool
steel hardened and ground to
such a degree that there is no
possibility of their becoming
worn. On such grounds as
these fair, frank and honora-
BILE, we solicit the patronage
of the bicycle riding public.
An examination will prove
that they are all we claim for
them.

SALVATION ARMY.
Brigadier Keppel Disappointed Over
His Trip-Polynesia Next.

Brigadier J. J. Keppel of the Sal
walton Army, who returned from
Honolulu last Friday, is at his
home in Oakland. He is some
what disappointed over his trip.
He went to the Islands intending
to participate in the dedication OF
a new hall the army had just COM
pIeted. The cholera outbreak, how
ever, interviewed, as the Govern
ment refused to allow any public
gatherings during the prevalence OF
the disease. General Keppel re-
manned at the Islands only two
DAYS. The cholera will prove a
serious obstacle to the development
of the plans of the army for for
warding their work in the islands
of the Pacific. Honolulu is to be
made the central post for a great
amount of labor to be performed IN
the South Pacific, 1t is the inten-
ton OF the army to extend Its field
into the South Seas as soon as 1T
becomes well established In the
Sandwich Islands.
Ensign Reid, in command OF the
Oakland corps, said last evening,
when interviewed at the Peoples
Theater barracks, that the work is
increasing with greater rapidity
there than had been anticipated.
owe have a most efficient corps OF
officers" said he. "Adjutant q. ID.
Egnee and his wife, who were for
merly in Oakland, are in charge OF
the work throughout the islands
and are assisted by six officers.
There are three corps altogether.
AS soon as the work is well estab-
lished in Hawaii delegations will
proceed to Southern Polynesia and
Micronesia" -S. F. Chronicle, Sep

Price OF Keeping Cuba-An Immense
Army to Go Against the Insurgents.
The London Standard publishes a
Madrid dispatch saying that the con
centratiOn of reinforcements for Cuba
is proceeding rapidly throughout the
kingdom. Several heavily laden
steamers belonging to the Spanish
Transatlantic line started from Bar
celona, Santander, Coruna and CAdiz
for Cuba during the last week with
war stores.
Eight thousand cavalry, forming the
first body of q total of $4,000, will be
landed in Cuba before September goth.
Though Captain General CamPos de-
clared that 10000 would be sufficient,
the government will prepare $4,000
more, who will embark at the end of
October, If their services should be
necessary. The cost of the war in
Cuba up to the present time has been
about S2O,OOO,OOO. Since February the
transport service alone has cost ST.
100000.

Armor Plate and ProjecfiIe

One of the most curious phases of
naval progress is the race between
armor plate and projectile. The
ideal navy should have, of course, a
gun and shell capable Of SCATTERING
the best armor clad man of-war Of
the enemy, and yet protective
girdling for its own ships which
should laugh to scorn the hottest
batteries of the hostile feet. The
United States Navy has witnessed as
remarkable an advance in ordnance
as has the Army. Our coast defense
guns are worthily supplemented by
our naval armament. The new
Carnegie preliminary treatment for
the American Harveyizing process
has apparently made possible for our
battleships the most impervious belts
in the world. And yet it is dis
quieting commentary upon this lat
est discovery to learn from Berlin
that the Krupps have also succeeded
in developing wonderfoul new
hardening process for the steel of
armor plates. The fact is that only
the exigencies of a genuine sea fight
will ever determine the relative value
of the untried modern navies of the
world.-Philadelph Record.

CRACKED HER SHAFT.
The Steamer Kahului Arrives in a
Disabled Condition.

The steamer Kahuini arrived
yesterday from Kahului. She left
San Francisco on the 9th inst, the
same day as the Arawa, consequent
ly she did not bring any later news.
The vessels "hoodoo" still remains
with her as she was compelled to
come here for repairs. A cracked
shaft is the cause of the trouble
this time and may detain her here
for some time, unless the damage
can be repaired in this city. If
not, then Captain Tyson will have
to send to San Francisco for a new
one.
On the way down the vessel
drifted about the ocean for two days
while her engineers were making
temporary repairs. It took her
144 days to reach Kahului, and ar
rived there on Sunday. She dis
charged $50 tons Of freight, took
on $50 tons of sugar and left again
on Monday evening at Z o'clock for
this port.

Stoddart, of Spreckelsville, came
down on her. Mr.. Wilder left again
on the Claudine last night.
