Marion County Workmanship

Al Rogers bought II turkeys
and $50 cartridges for his turkey
shoot. The range was from 100
to 200 yards, and the rules re-
quired that each turkey be hit in
the head. When the firing was
over, one turkey and IS cart
ridges were left. This was a
very good score, considering that
many of the shooters were out of
practice.

Government VIII Try to Secure An
other One OF Cervera's ships.

WASHINGTON, November 1.-THE
armored cruiser Maria Teresa has pro-
baby been abandoned by this time, and
lies a wreck OFF the coast of Cat Island.
The Navy Department has wired Captain
McCalla as follows:
If you are satisfied, after consultation
with the officers named, that the Teresa
cannot be saved, you are authorized TO
abandon the wreck. AS to any other mat
ters exercise your own judgment. Notify
the British authorities. When you have
done all you can return to Norfolk"
The Captain was subsequently directed
to bring the wrecking tug Potomac TO
Norfolk with him when he comes, instead
Of returning her to Santiago.
The Navy Department has not yet
abandoned the effort to secure at least
one of the vessels of Cervera's feet as a
trophy TO be placed on the American
naval list. although somewhat discouraged
by the result Of the venture in the case
Of the Teresa.
WE MAY SECURE THE COLON.
Assistant Secretary Allen, who has been
directly charged with the matter, has
been I'm correspondence with the repre-
sentatives Of the Neptune Company, a
Swedish corporation, which has had re-
markable success in floating the largest
TYNE Of warships when sunken. The
company has made a tentative proposition
TO wreck the Colon for a salvage TO be
arranged in advance between itself and
the department. Mr. Allen believes that
some ARRANGEMENT may be made on this
basis and meanwhile has authorized rep
resentatiyes of the Neptune Company to
visit the scene of the wrecks, near San
tiago. in order that they may secure the
basis for a definite proposition.

LETTER FROM MKINLEY.
President Mckinley said in his letter OF
regret: Never i'm the history OF this
country have we had greater cause FOR
thankfulness in the increased prosperity
of the country and the prospect of a
future bright with promise. The great
trade organizations. the influential bodies
representing the vast interests of those
who labor in the various fields OF en-
deavor, have presented 10 them an oppOr-
tunity seldom vouchsafed for the dd-
vancement Of our material welfare and
for the betterment OF industrial condi-
tons"
Before the speaking began the guests
rose and drank the health of Queen Vic
toria. the orchestra played God Save the
Queen" and all joined in the chorus

dent.

Acknowledgement Griggs said he was
present as the representative of the Presi'
dent. and was an apostle, but had no great
secrets of State To disclose. He would
not even discuss the principle of expal'
sion. He considered it settled. 1t was
settled by the annexation of Hawaii II

He pointed to history, and then declared
0This country can follow In the path
