There is bad news regarding the out
look for the potato crop in Ireland this
year. The intermittent rains, accom-
panied by great heat, has led to an
alarming development of the blight in
widely separated districts of the coun-
try. In East Cork, West Limerick and
Mayo extensive failure is apprehended.
The favorite champion" seed has lost
Its blight resisting power. with the
usual consequences. During the next
few weeks the progress Of the disease
will be watched with no little anxiety.

OF the numerous expeditions sent out
by the museum. In these one hun
dred there is one perfect specimen of
a flying Lizard that was twelve feet
long. Prof. w. Matthews said there
were numerous other sections of liz
yards, but only one complete specimen,
which was taken from Kansas. 1t be-
longed to a period of ages before man
was dreamed of and few like bat in

Matthews, who had charge of an ex-
petition to Kansas, has just returned.
On his way back he got into Wyoming
with Prof. Wortmaun's. expedition.
When that expedition returns to New
York early in October, there will be
brought along a monster lizard over
fifty feet long. 1t is being dug out Of
Wyoming rock now. When he left
thirty-five feet of the creature was in
sight and it was estimated that twenty
feet more at least remained to be ex-
cavated. Then there is the missing
link" horse. Museums all over the
country have bones of this creature,
but not enough to make an intel
ligible skeleton that the public could
understand. The Nebraska expedition
has sent back samples of the bones
of the missing link" horse that have
not been discovered heretofore and
professors at the national museum
who patch animal bones into full
skeletons are rejoicing in the belief
that they will get a whole horse to-
gether.

Seattle, Wash, Aug. 30.-The steam
er King City has arrived from Dyea
and Skaguay. The following letter
was brought to the Associated press
from its correspondent:
Skaguay, Alaska, Aug. 15.-The new
deputy collector of customs at SKA
quay and Dyea has imposed duty of
$50 head ON Canadian horses un-
loaded at this port from Canadian ter
ritory, to be used in packing owners
outfits over the summit, Since the
new British collector, a few days ago,
announced that his government would
waive all duty on miners clothes and
outfits intended for personal use for
the next six months, it is feared this
action on the part of the United States
collector will react ON American
miners. The duty will be paid under
protest. The collector also assumed
the right to appraise horses at their
value here. One man paid $40 for
what cost him $500 at Victoria.
An effort is being made to improve
the Skaguay trail. The diggers camp
ed at Skaguay and on the trail are to
do the work while the citizens Of
Skaguay furnish all food and trans
portation of supplies. There are not
less than 5000 miners between the
landing and the summit and all travel
is suspended. Trees have been felled
across the trail and no one viii be al
lowed to proceed until the trail is
finished
There are only five bad hills where
much blasting will be needed; the rest
can be done with picks, axes and
shovels. Charles King, of Tacoma, an
experienced railroad contractor will
be superintendent of the construction.
There are several civil engineers here
with their instruments and they will
proceed at once to make the survey.
The work will be complete and thrown
open to travel in from ten to fifteen
days and it is thought it can be kept
open all winter.
There are three ships in the harbor
unloading. The Bristol, of Victoria,
has been here five days and has hardly
begun unloading as the. charterers re-
fused to furnish lighters to land the
supplies and also refused to furnish
meals to the passengers after the boat
dropped anchor. The passengers ap-
pealed to the viligence committee
this morning and the chairman went
aboard to interview the captain and
purser. After stormy interview the
captain and purser engaged the Bjachs
a lighter, brought up by the steam tug
Pioneer, of Seattle, and the passengers
are helping to unload the ship.
The price of whiskey has jumped in
the last ten days from three and five
dollars per gallon to $50 on account
of the many seizures made by the new
revenue officers who have captured
about twenty barrels in that time.

GOOD FOR UNCLE SAM.

New York, Aug. 30.-A dispatch to
the Herald from Buenos Ayres says:
The wheat crop in the province of
Santa Fe is calculated at about ten
thousand tons, scarcely more than
enough to supply the province for the
year.
What is true in Santa Fe province,
and it is said, is true in the other
provinces; that is, none will furnish
much more than enough grain for
home use.

field for the liberty of his country.
Listen, countrymen. When, after a
battle, and filed with national pride,
we have gathered up the wounded of
the enemy to give them the care that
they need, many times have l been
covered with shame and my whole
being has been thrilled with a terrible
bitterness to see that the majority of
the wounded were the men of my
race who were fighting against the
liberty of their country.
Il am confident, countrymen. that
you have suffered so much under the
despotism Of Spain that after reading
these lines you viii come to our side
and enlist in the ranks of the army
of this province to win worthy place
in history, so far as each of you is con-
cerned, it will henceforth never be pos
sible to say that the colored race of
Cuba helped to clinch the act of ty-
ranny against their own brothers.
Come, then, and help us to redeem
the fatherland, thus complying with
your duty as honored citizens. Tri-
umph is near. Our purpose guides
US in battle-to die if necessary, for
Cuba and liberty. Citizens of my

Police Discover Fire in Time to
Avert Serious Damages.
Chicago, Aug. 3O.-Work of an in
cendiary, which might have resulted
in serious loss of life, was prevented
by the prompt work of firemen in q
blaze which was discovered in the
basement of ]. J. Riley Company's
paint and decorating store ON Twenty
second street last night.
An hour after the discovery of the
fire ]. ]. Riley, the proprietor of the
place, was arrested. Marshal Town
send, who examined the place thor
oughly said it was the clearest case Of
attempted arson he had ever seen.
Barrels of benzine, asphaltum varnlsh
about the floor, lumber in close prox-
unity, excelsior bathed in benzine and
two benzine buckets in which tallow
candles had been lighted, all tended
to substantiate the theory of the police
that the place was set on fire.
Just at the time of the fire the street
was filed with crowds Of people, and
had the flames reached the barrels Of
gaso,ene and oil, not only the inmates
of the building but the passersby
would have been victims Of terrible
explosion.
