Bullets Fired at the Sixth

"Have you any idea of the hailstorm
OF bullets we went through on San
Juan hiI?" said one of the officers Of
the Sixth the other evening while at
supper with sss Iy.fEr OF his fellow-offi-
GERS who had been in the battle
This started the discussion, and Cap

Tho Farmers Prosperity

Those who few months ago we're
shouting prosperity on the strength
Of dollar wheat" for the farmer, are
still insisting that prosperity abounds
although their tone If trifle more
subdued, and "iollar wheat" doee
not appear i'll the retain. But then
we must not be captious over little
things, So long as we have pros
perity, what difference does it make
wheather we have "dollar wheat" or
"Grty- cent whest?"
At the present time wheat is worth
from 10 to So cents on the Western
farm according to location.
Cotton has made a new low water
record, selling III New York down to
the merest fraction above five cents
With wool corn and oats also edging
toward the low record mark, the agri
culturists who constitute nearly half
of our industrial population may well
inquire as to the real nature of the
prosperity which abounds, and who
has it. The fact is that while there
has been rather more business activity
lately than during the depression OF
1919 CT, there has been no material
advance i'll prices, except where
famine conditions Of other countries
coupled with speculation, temporarily
raised the prices OF breadstuffs, and
combines have kept up the prices of
some other things. But such in
tiuences always have serious offsets,
and we have had no real prosperity.

Mineral Product.

The division of mineral resources
OF the United States geological sur
vey has issued chart showing the
mineral products OF the United States
from 1888 to. 1897. There are fifty
eight products economically utilized
IN this country of which twelve are
metallic and forty six non metallic.
The value of these in 1897 was: Non
metallic, 1929, 116,8i5; metallic, $780,
19S, SOP; unspecitied, SI,0O0,00O. total,
S632, 312,3lT. This does not come up
to the record of 1898, which was S64S,
675.0Sl, but is the highest since thar
time. The greatest value is on coal,
it being worth S19S, 869,175, and iron
comes second at S75, l22, 299. The
gold was worth S57, 100000 and cop.
per comes very close. Its value being
54,080.i80. Petroleum comes next
in order with S40,929,5l1, followed IN
order with building stones, s36 O7O.-
65l; silver, s32,3l6,OO0; lead, sl4,ss5,.
72S; natural gas, S13,826,422; clays
s9,0O0,0O0, and cement, s9,178,2S3,
All other substances show a less an
nual value than eight millions
Alu ninum has gone up from $4,000
in 1888 to Sl.5OO,uOO in 1897.
1T is not probable that the figures
for 1893 will equal those quoted for
last year. The war has had it's effect
on mining rs on other industries.
Thousands engaged in various
branches of this industry went off to
war, or left for the Klondike, SO that

Correspondence Of The Evening Star.

Correspondence OF The Evening Star.
OCEAN CITY, Md, May 13, 1898.
This beautiful spot has laid aside its win
ter robes, and has donned the garb of sum-
mer. Already many of the cottages are oc-
cUped, and many more taken for the
season for occupancy from the first of June.
Everything begins to look bright and joy
Gus, and the season here promises to be a
prosperous and gay one, war and .rumors OF
war to the contrary Notwithstanding.
Apropos of the war: A gentleman here
who is getting his cottage put in order for
the reception of his family and friends, said
yesterday: THE war will not only not in
jure business here this season, but 1 be-
lieve 1t will improve it. Why, just think"
he said, how this place is protected. AL
though on the ocean front, it cannot be ap-
preached nearer than eight or ten miles by
vessels of heavy draught, on account of the
natural sand bars that run parallel to the
coast at that distance. Besides Ocean City
is far enough away from any of the large
seaports or large cities to insure its safety"
Sister Clara and Father Lennon, the di-
rector Of the St. Rose Industrial School of
Washington, were down here this week in
specting their new summer home which is
now nearing completion. A description of
the sisters summer home at Ocean City

The building is divived into two parts,
connected by passageway. There will
also be open court between the two
ends. One of the end buildings is intended
for the sisters and for the children
The buildings are also connected by wide
porches. The sisters building has a large
committee room, % by % feet. The dining
hall, which is "a by Al feet, will accommo-
date fifty to sixty persons There are also
two large class rooms on the ground floor

On the second floor of this building there
are four front bed rooms, to be occupied
by the sisters in charge of the school. One
room is reserved for the sister superior
and one a sick room. Bath rooms and
a dormitory to accommodate fifty sisters
are also on the second floor. The most
thorough systems of heating and ventila-
tion have been adopted.

lance being too great. During the Tur-
ko-Russian war the Russians fired
two Whiteheads from torpedo boats at
the Turkish fleet on Batoum. Both
weapons failed. But in 1873 a. Turkish
steamer was sunk by one of the two
torpedoes fired from two torpedo boats.
The automobile torpedo played promi-
nent part in sinking the Gillian ship
Blanco Encalada. Four torpedoes and two
torpedo vessels effected this destruction,
though only one of the torpedoes hit.
Quite similar was the sinking a year
or so later of the Brazilian battleship
Aouidaban.
HOW 4 TORPEDO IS DISCHARGED.
There are two ways of discharging or
projecting torpedoes, above water and
under water, by means of impulse tubes
using some propallant Formerly com
pressed air was employed, but the most
recent arrangements provide for d gun
powder discharge.
The below water discharge has the ad-
vantage oper the above water discharge
of affording protection to the men man
ipulating the weapon, while the torpedo
itself is less DETECTED on entering the
water. Above water discharge labors I'M
der the defects of being liable to prema-
ture explosion of the torpedo by the
enemy's fire, and on account of the var
liability of the height above water caused
by the motion of the boat in sea way
But there are advantages in above water
discharges, especially when firing torpe-
does from a broadside-the tubes can be
trained like guns. Also the above water
tubes can be protected by steel screens
