The Sea Shore Cottage Scare.

Amos Clement returned last Thursday
from Seal Harbor, where he had been to ar
range for the seasons business at the Sea-
side Inn. He reports that his rooms are be-
ing taken as usual and that he sees no bad
effects on his business from the war. Peo-
pie are not being frightened from the sea-
shore, as some writers who are evidently
working in the interests of the mountain re-
sorts would try to make us believe. The
Kmbail House of n, E. Harbor, one of the
leading summer hotels on the coast, has an
order from New York capitalist for a suite
been no war the family would have gone to
Europe. In this connection the Boston
Daily Advertiser says:
We are prepared to state positively and
dogmatically that every 5eashore cottage in
New England or farther south along the
coast is entirely safe from the danger of
commandment. a Spanish admiral, even #
he could get fleet over to this part OF the
Atlantic coast would not waste his time and
lmpoverlsh the Spanish treasury by firing
off So 900 worth of ammunition in an at
tempt 10 hit a 50 800 cottage on the seashore.
Even Spanish admiral has some regard for
the fitness Of things.
OF course it is difficult to see Just how a
Spanish hett is to get near this section Of
the Atlantic coast without having to face
prep0nderance Of strength on the part of
the American navy, or without having to
run the gauntlet of mines and torpedoes all
along tile line OF the Atlantic coast. 1t
would also be interesting to learn how and
where Spanish squadron could get sutfi-
clent coal to enable Its vessels to make the
unusually long journey, especially as the
fleet would probably try to sad at full speed
and the coal supplies Of the Spanish vessels
will hardly carry them from Cadiz to Key
West, at forced steam-pressure.
Ignoring all these considerations (al-
though they can hardly be considered as
unimportant in this connection) the fact
still remains that modern ammunition costs
good deal of money. Any force of Spanish
marines that set foot upon American soil
would be annihilated. Consequently the
only way in which an invading fleet could
destroy property along the sea coast would
be by commandment; and ammunition in
these days costs altogether too much to JUS
tify any Spanish admiral in trying pop shots
at lighthouses or summer cottages at Nan
tasket, Magnolia or Annisquam.

badly that customer has to call the next

DR.. W. II. Winsow of Vineyard Haven,
who was educated at Annapolis and who
served through the war in the United States
navy leaving the service in October, 1866, is
among those who have rendered their ser
vices to Gov Wolcott i'll case the latter
should have use for them in the defence OF the
Massachusetts coast. DIR. Winsow has also
protfered his services to Secretary Long, and
thinks it entirely possible some of the men
whose age prevents their enlistment may be
called on, if still active, to assist in the
navigation of the supplementary fleets.
DR.. Winslow, as a master, had charge of
the 1-inch gun on the monitor Nahant dur.

squadron, and while on this vessel became

At the fremont Temple, Boston, Sun
day morning, Dr.. Lorimer preached a
mas,erly sermon which had reference to
the present re atoms of the United States
to Spain, and he principles which have
sed this country to espouse the cause OF
the Cubans. Among other things he said
This chivalrous and humane movement
means more than relief to Cuba. 1t means
ray of hope to Armenia, a ray of hope
to the Chinese, who are beset with Euro
pean powers, and it means the nations of
the earth will see our example. 1t will,
perhaps, touch our brothers across the
sea, and then the days of peace may be
forthcoming. [ am hoping that out of
this movement Of America, the two great
est Christian powers of the world, the
United States and England, will join
hands and insure an era of peace.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together, and
until the last few years was supposed to be incur
able. For great many years doctors pronounced
it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies,

treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be constitutional disease and
therefore requires constitutional treatment.

JUST IN TIME
To Be Too Late-Chsttanooga Officer Found
 His Man Gone.

Joe Brown, alias Ed Porter, who was arrested in Newberry's restaurant early Sunday morning on a description sent out by the authorities of Hamilton county, Tennessee, as fugitive from justice, was released yesterday by Judge Greene on habas corpus proceedings instituted by This attorney, B. M. Allen.
 The writ of habeas corpus was gotten out on Saturday, and has been called several times, but was held up pending the ar- rival of an officer from Chattanooga. When the case was called yesterday Judge Greene discharged the petitioner, declining to hold him longer
 nooga arrived in the city for the prisoner, and from the description given him of the man who was under arrest was almost sure that he was the man wanted.
 A search was made for the man, but he could not be found, and Is said to have left town immediately upon his release from custody.
 A description of Porter was sent out to teh officers of the surrounding towns and last night a telegram was received that Q man answering the description had been arrested at Boyle's. Officer Baker was at once sent to that place to identify the man. Porter is thought to have been i'm plicated in the alleged swinding of man in a gambling room in Twentieth street which resulted in the arrest of J. M. War ble who was charged with keeping gamb- ling house.

LUMBERMEN
 OF ALABAMA Failed to Put in an Appear
 anCe. MISSISSIPPI MILL MEN Gather in This City Yesterday to Regulate Prices, but Gave it Up As a Bad Job-Another Effort Will
 Be Made.
MISSISSIPPI MILL MEN

The efforts of the lumbermen of Mssis- sippf to get Alabama lumbermen to agree upon prices has so far proven unsuccess- full An informal meeting was held in this city at the Morris hotel yesterday after noon, but only two Alabama representa- tives put in an appearance. and as the Mis- sissippi men are already organized there was nothing to do but adjourn, after dis cussing ways and means to bring about the desired end.
 It seems that since the demise of the Alabama Lumber company, which con trolled the principal mills in Alabama have been demoralized and in an effort to remedy this condition the Mis- sssippi mill men who are organized un- der the style of the Mutual Lumber com pany, issued call through George S. Gard iner of Laurel, Miss, for a meeting to be held in this city yesterday for the pur- pose of agreeing upon a sixty day list by which time it is thought that the demand will regulate prices.
 The Mississippi men were on hand bright and early but the lack of Alabamians was somewhat discouragng, but it was hoped that the afternoon trains would bring them in by the dozen. It was but hopes deferred, however for when the "sawyers' got to- gether in the parlors of the Morris at 3 D. m. no more Alabamians had shown up and it was decided to write personal let ters to the Alabama mill men asking them to go into the sixty-day agreement.
 The following gentlemen were present:
 F. H. Lathrop, of the Lathrop-Hatten Lumber company, Riverside, Ala; John l.. Kaul of the Sample Lumber company, Rollins, Ala; George S. Gardiner, of the Eastman Gardiner Lumber company, Hattiesburg, Miss. c. w. Rich, of the Rich Lumber company, RchbuH Miss; w. ]. Kilduff, of the Lumber Trade Journal, New Orleans; J. H.
