Brussels Streets Wet with a Dilute
Disinfectnnt of Carbolic Acid.
Brussels has inaugurated after much
experiment a system of sprinhling it's
streets with diluted disinfectant, the
efficacy of which has been promptly
made apparent by the prevention Of
such another epidemic of upthous
stomatitis as occurred in Belgium q
few years ago. Consul Roosevelt, who,
reports on the matter to the state De-
partment, says that while few sporadioI
cases of this disease, an inflammation
of the mouth, are how reported in Bell
GUM, an epidemic exists In Holland.
During January it was reported in $50
cattle stables distributed over ITO COM
munes, the number of cattle infected
aggregating over 1000. 1t is believed
that the disinfection system adopted I'M
Brussels has prevented the spread oil

GEN. BOOTH is COMING OVER.
Head of Salvation Army to Make
America Visit In October.


America n Visit In October.
Commander Booth Tucker, of the Sail
walton Army, has submitted to Gen.
Booth a plan for the latter's visit to
this country. The general has decided
to come over in October and his visit
will last six weeks. During that time
he will hold meetings in all the prom
inent cities in the United States.
The Salvation Army will work hard
during the coming summer in build
ing up the social" work. or that branch
which has for its primary object theI
alienation of the physical ills of the
masses. Said Col. Holland: 1--WE have
just secured possession of notorious
resort In Chicago known as the Grotto
and another place called the Albemarle
hotel. These will be turned into food
and shelter depots. Other depots are
about to be opened in Philadelphia,
Kansas City and Seattle"
A branch of this work that is novel
and helpful to the poor people is the
salvage work. Its object is explained
in the following paragraph from q
letter from Commander Booth fuckers
MY proposal is to ask householders to,
kindly instruct their servants to put
into box or other receptacle anything
which, when sorted and cleaned, rep
resents cash value. ghe Salvation Army
will undertake the systematic and reg
ular collection Of these things by q
body of men, mostly married, with
families, who shall wear some DISTINCT
i've badge of authority and perform
their duty in as orderly and expeditions
manner as possible"

THE CUBAN ARMY.
Better Equipped To-Day Than Il
Has Ever Been Before.
Not Less Than 10000 Men in the Field
Interview with n Retired
Colonel OF the Insure
gent Army.

Following are excerpts from column
interview with DR.. j. Herbert SteNens,
recently colonel in the Cuban army:
THE insurgent army is little better
equipped to-day than ever before, aud
i should say that at the present time
there are not less than 10000 men in the
field. Food has been scarce at times,
but when plentiful, as at present, con-
sists of beef and bananas. Beef is plen-
tiful on the island, where cattle run
wild in herds of hundreds. Every morn
Ing the men round up, kill and dress
bunch of cows. Much of the beef ia
wasted, but the supply seems unlimited.
"As far as I was able to observe, there
are few Americans in the Cuban army,
and the story of whole companies Of
Americans and Texas rangers, as we'll as
those of the Amazon companies, are
unfounded. The Cuban, like the Span
iards, is suspicious of Americans, and
jealousy prevails. all over the island.
Americans and Cubans do not affiliate.
II should say that about 50 per cent.
of the men in the Cuban army are COLI
ored. There are few colored men with
Gen. Gomez, but in Santiago de Cuba
there are many colored soldiers, some
of whom are officers.
There is not much sickness in the
army, as rule. Gen. Gomez is in good
health, and, as far as that old wound
in his leg is concerned, can say that

KILLED BY THE CARS.
Fate of an Errntic Brother of ASS,
ciate Justice Harlan,

Fate of an Errntic Brother of Assoc.
ciate Justice Harlan.
Louisville, Ky, June 16.-James P.
Harlan, brother of Associate Justice
Harlan, was accidentally killed by a
train on the Louisville, Henderson &
st. Louis railway Tuesday afternoon
near the city almshouse. Mr.. Harlan,
who was about 10 years old, was once
one of the most prominent lawyers in
the state, enjoying large practice and
holding a high judicial office in this
county. He was, however, the victim
of an uncomfortable appetite for liquor,
and was incaphcitated for business, de-
spite the efforts of his relatives and
friends to bring about his cure. He
practiced law for several years in Kan.
sas, and, returning to Louisville about
three years ago, voluntarily entered
the almshouse, where he has since re.
sided.
Judge Harlan was on the way to tho
railway station to purchase the even
ing paper, as was his custom, when the
train overlook him. He was not de.
pendent upon the city charities, but has
always been supplied literally with
money by his relations. He preferred
to live at the institution because of a
personal friendship for the superin.
tendent.
