The full text of SPANS reply to
the L. ;. concerning the war in Gu
ba reached Washington last week,
but will not be made public until
after it is submitted to congress.
That there is neither urgency nor
alarm in the situation is fully shown
by the departure Of President Me-
kinley and Secretary sherman for
Ohio, to remain until the latter part
of this week. In fact, the whole
matter depend largely upon the
Roadway of new Spanish officials
make in Cuba between now and the
assembling of congress. If Weyler's
conduct Of the war is not improved
upon materially, President McKin-
ley will probably recommend deci-
sivo action on the part Of congress.

He preached most valuable sermon to women the other day, and his text was that magnificent piece of slang, a genu inc classic in it's way, There Are Others" A willful young women who was engaged to marry Lushi threw h i'm over at the last moment without a word of warning. She did not real ly mean it, for five days afterward she telegraphed Lushi to come to another tows, meet her. and marry her No doubt she had pictured the distracted Lusb as ( W andering by the rivers brink in the moonlight, heaving sighs that raised heavy sea on the unusual ly peaceful waters. and dwelling on thoughts of suicidal tinge- But Lushi was not that sort of a man. He was one of the men who say: "There Are Others" In the five days which had passed he had made the acquaintance of another girl, won her. and married her In answer to tine. telegram he sent her marked copies of the papers containing the wedding notices Now girl No, will go through life with the cheerful conviction that by her folly she lest a real man.

Great Market For Ginseng.

The following. taken from the an nual report of Consul Johnson, dated Annoy, China, July 20, 1897, should be of great interest to many readers in thls section.
 II do not exaggerate when I state that it is possible to market annually in China, S20. 900, GOO worth of ginseng roots. They are now being cultivated in the United States to limited ex- tent, and prices obtained by the grow CT entirely out of proportion to those realized by the thrifty exporter. 1t sells in Annoy at price from S25 to $35, (Mexican), per pound" This would be SIP. 50 to SIS. per pound in United States currency.

To Prevent Foundering.

From the Wisconsin Agricuturalist.
 Horses that have been driven hard or that are sweating profusely should never be given q drop of water or a bit of feed until they are thoroughly cooled off Most men recognize the truth of this as applied to water, and it is just as necessary that they should recognize the truth of it as applied to feed There are more horses suffering from founder that have become so through being fed while hot than there are horses suffering from as tad an injury that have been hurt because of watering when hot.

A Strange Story.

From the Maryville (Mo.l Reyeiw.
 Paul Pelkey, of Fillmore, is still liv- ing and is lo2 years old He took sick and died forty years ago was dressed in grave clothes and was placed in coffin in an up stairs room at his home. The funeral was ready to start and the stairs were very mar row and old fashioned and but two snen could handle the coffin. They started down the stairway with the coffin and one of the men slipped. and down went the coffin bumpty bump. The coffin broke open and the corpse sat up and rubbed his eyes and asked for drink of water and Paul Pelkey' s funeral was put off indefinitely and has not since been announced, and II IS said not likely to be for some time to come
