knOwledged to be the triumph of the
age III this department of industry.
In Star Tobacco the best quality of
leaf is transformed into the choicest
manufactured product by the aid of the
highest modern skill, coupled with the
best scientific processes of the age.
It's t%oughness and lasting qualities
make it not only the most delicious
chew. but at the same time actually. not
relatively, the cheapest in money cost
Eor these reasons the demand for this

the Star Tobacco people in taking such
decisive action to increase the prOduc-
ton of one of the great staples of our
state Is both oppOrtuue and commend
able.
The means employed by them in
achieving the desired end are no less
unique than far-reachlng in their influ-

or manner of death.
All Accumulation Policies contain only the ne condition tatth premiums be paid
as agreed. If the insured paysth the premium, the company will pay the policy.
Besides being entrhyh eef from all resnnhons,h thu Accumulation Policies of The New

A policy absolutely without restrictions;
A policy with but one condition, namely The payment of
premiums;
A policy with a months grace in premium payments and paid I'D
full in case of death during the month Of grace, less only the overdue
premium;
A policy providing for reinstatement during the five months
following the month of grace, if the insured is in good health;
A policy automatically nonforfeiting after three annual premiums
have been paid;
A policy with privilege of cash surrender values, or loans at five
per cent interest three years after issue;
A policy with eight options in settlement at the end of fifteen or

A Million Dollars Damage and 100000
People Destitute.

Tacoma, Wash, Sept. 22.-China adj
vices per steamer today report that
this years freshet was lower by more
than a foot than those of preceding
years, but in spite of this decrease and
also the fact that the Grand canal has
not contributed anything near its usual
quantity of water, the Peiho river has
burst both its eastern and western
banks and one vast sheet of water now
stretches from Yang Chung to Pei
Kuan, n distance of twenty odd Ii.
one hundred thousand people have
been rendered destitute and the dam
age to property is estimated at about
Sl.O00, 600. The railway is in danger
from the flood, and should a wind of
any strength arise the damage to the
road from the wash of the waves may
be considerable.
A Chouping missionary correspondent

making them more suspicious of all
strangers than before.

SPAIN WILL Do SOMETHING.

Element of affairs in Cuba.
El Epoca, after denouncing ms "sen-
satlonal" the story of an ultimatum,
points out that the Cubans have not
been at war with Spain without the
moral and material cooperation of the
American people.
There is a great deal of comment rs
to the origin of the ultimatum canard.
II has been attributed to foreign en-
bassador. but all the ambassadors
deny responsibility for it. The people
do not think that war is Inevitable II
is asserted that the liberals will soon
form n cabinet, and that on the re-
turn of the queen from San Sebastian
to Madrid, Captain General Weyler win
be recalled from Cuba and autonomy
established in the island. thus leaving
no pretext for the Intervention OF the
United States.
WAS SOMETHING IN IT.
Washington, Sept. 22.-The state de-
partment officials refuse to discuss the
most important statement made in the
Associated Press cable dispatch from
Madrid, namely, that the countries Of
Europe, with the exception of Austria,
Justify the interposition Of the United
states in favor of a termination of the
Cuban war. Still II Ia recalled that
while Mr. Woodford was tarrying in
an apparently purposeless manner In
London and Paris, instead of proceed
ing to his post in Spain, It leaked out
that the United States ministers at
various European courts had been in
structed to sound governments to
which they were accredited with
view of learning how Intervention in
favor OF Cuba would be regarded. Al
though 1t was generally supposed at
the time that this effort would not
succeed, there is now good reason to
accept the statement In the Madrid
cables as fully warranted by the
facts.
HE DID NOT RETIRE.

pectations confidently entertained to-
day, Senior Reverto, minister OF
finance, has not resigned his port

should be an icebouse or ice storage

the cooling room that the bottom Of
this ice storehouse may DO provided

upon which the ice Of the whole storage

The body was in a horrible state, as

In the shoulder. The face was dis

COLD BRINE PIPES.
Making Them Available In the Work of
Cooling MIX.

Cooling MILK.
Professor f. II. King has prepared
for Hoard's Dairyman sketch and IL
lustrntion of method proposed by him
for cooling milk and keeping it cool by
means of pipes circulating cold brine
through the refrigerator. The system
requires also, Of course, the use of ice.
Part Of Professor Kings idea is to save
the ice water as fast as it is melted and
make it help further in the work Of
refrigeration. Tho brine pipes produce
greater cold.
Professor King explains his plan as
follows:
The cheapest device, everything con-
sidered, where permanent outfit Is to
be erected, would be one which utilized
the cooling power Of the ice without
the labor and losses of rehandling the
