\ special TO the Citizen Jacksonville,
Fla, from Key West says: News has
been received here that the troops OF
the Spanish garrison at San Jose de
Las alas, twenty miles southwest of
Havana, abandoned their post and
joined the insurgents. Many of the
citizens accompanied the troops ana
carried ammunit .On with them. The
news caused great excitement at the
palace and fresh troops were
Immediately sent to the post and order
was restored. Before the troops
reached the city many residents were
shot down in the streets.
News from Santiago de Cuba reports
that the insurgents captured an
important Spanish convoy of ammuni
ton and supplies between BaycitO and
Manillo with nearly 900 900 rounds OF
Mausur aud Remington cartrid gees.
No more social or family gatherings

The Texas Was FIOated.

The New York World says: The
battleship Texas, which has been
undergoing repairs for two weeks, was
aoated out of the tim Der dry dock
early yesterday morning and with the
assistance of two Government tugs was
mOored at the Cob dock. The ship is
unfit for service and will in all proba-
bility be put out of comm ssion in the
near future and undergo extensive
alterations.
Besides the weakness of the bulk
heads, the water tight compartment 5
and the apparatus which works the
II inch guns, the turrets are found to
have been so faultily constructed that
the guns can only be loaded from two
positions. Should the turret, be-
come jammed the guns would be use
less.
Many other defects have also been
discovered. The pip ng TO the hoistine
and rammer gear is unprotected when
it traverses the space between the
protective deck and the floor of the
redOut. This means that the main
battery can be disabled by a shot from
a small gun

Where corn is fed to cattle, hogs
should be yarded with them in order
that the droppings from the cattle may
be cleaned up aud the uudigested corn
saved. In a test made by the Kansas
experiment station it was demonstrat-
ed that hogs following steers fed on
whole corn got about 10 pounds out of
droppings for every 100 pounds of ear
corn given to the steers There is an ex-
pressed objection to hogs being fatten-
ed this way, the claim beiog made that
it is an unclean method. This objection
is rather finely drawn and if consis-
tently followed out would prevent the
consumption, not only of pork products,
but of fowls of every description as

said to be invested over 500, 900, 600,

Then there are the adjustments that
manufacture the machinery and APP
paratus used, and many of these are
among the largest enterprises in the
world. In all of these industries
copper is a necessity, and its consunp-

of electrical science. The telegraph is
one of the oldest and most important
fields for the employment OF copper.
and its demand to replace steel wire is
constantly growing.

estimated value of vessels was $3.50

number of documen;ed vessels totally
lost was sixty seven.
There were also during the year no
casualties to undo 'umentcd small craft
and sail boats. OF the $50 persons on
