Spain's Stranded Navy to BE Added

No time is being lost by the Navy De-

The contract will be signed tomorrow
Its terms were practically agreed upon at
a conference today between Assistant
Secretary Allen and Mr.. Chapman, rep
resenting the company.
officials of the department were disin-
clined to publish the provisions of the
proposed contract. but it is learned that
it is very similar TO that for the recovery
Of the equipment of the Maine. The
company is guaranteed against loss from
the capture OF any of its vessels. and
will receive bounty for bringing any of
the stranded ships North announcing to
about S10o.01o for each ship.
The company will be paid at per diem
the time the ships are on their way to
Santiago. The Government paid the
wrecking company sS11 per day for its
work in connection with the Maine and
the proposed contract will be practically
at the same figure. :.
Owing to fear of a storm the authori-
ties are Fastening the dispatch of The
. wreckers. Mr.. Chapman said today that
If a tropical cyclone were in progress. as
reported, the ships will pound on the
beach so that it will be impossible to save
them. The department has been inform
ed that in accordance with its instruc-
ton the engineer repair ship Vulcan has
been doing all in its power to put the
Cristobal Colon in condition TO proceed to
sea, and the authorities hope that this
vessel will be fioated into deep water be-
fore she receives any irreparable injuries
from the elements.
Examination made by Rear Admiral
Sampson proves that her hull is in en-
cellent condition. 1t will be impossible TO
save the Infanta Maria Teresa. according
to Rear Admiral Sampson, but there is n
good chance of raising the Vizcaya and
Almirante Oquendo.
The Cristobal Colon is slightly smaller
than ships of the Vizcaya class and her
protection is not as great. 1t is hoped
that the explosions reported to have oc-
CURED on the Vizcaya and Oquendo have
not resulted in permanent disablement.

the stories of cruelty and cowardice until
their truth is established
The Globe says: 1T is inconceivable, If
there were sufficient watertight compart-
ments, that the ship should sink as quick
ly as she did. The company will have
many questions TO answer
The Westminster Gazette compares the
destruction of the Vizcaya with the sink
ing of La Bourgogne, and expresses its
belief that to prove the courage of a
crowd is a matter of discipline.

FRANCES LACK OF SYMPATHY.
Professor Naur! Attributes II to Re-
lixiOus and MCEnTChical Feeling.

New York, July PROF. Bonet Maury.
a distinguished French scholar and
Protestant theologian. son of Gen. Maui
ry, who won high honors under Napoleon
Bonaparte, arrived yesterday on the
White Star liner Majestic, to deliver
series of lectures in the Chautauqua
Summer School and Chicago University.
He expects to return in September TO the
Protestant University in Paris, where for
many years he has filed the church his
tory chair. He is also member of the
senate of that institution. He visited the
United States for the first time in 1898, IS
French delegate TO the congress of re-
ligions.
He denied that an anti-American feeling
prevails among the people of the French
Republic. France he said, has de-
clared her neutrality. and will adhere
strictly to that declaration. OF course
there are parties in France each of
which looks at affairs in different light.
The Roman Catholic party and the mon
archists certainly sympathize with Spain.
because religion and royalty are strong
ties. Republicans and Liberals, however.
sympathize with the United States.
France today wishes victory to crown
American efforts. These views were pub
licly expressed by Bartholdi. the famous
sculptor on last Decoration Day, when
he placed a wreath upon the grave OF
Lafayette. in the presence of assembled
thousands. The United States has no
more disinterested yet faithful friend
than France. Both countries have the
same form of government and are pursu
ing the same ideals. the improvement of
the laboring classes and the progress of
liberty and Justice

On Saturday, August 9th, Mr.. and
Mrs. e. b. Wilbur gave a lawn party to
the Sunday school children connected
with the church at Factoryville. Tho
lawn was beautifully lighted with
Chinese lanterns giving the children
an opportunity to run and play to their
hearts content, while the orchestra
rendered some exceptionally fine pieces.
Over one hundred guests we're served
with ice cream and cake, ut two long
tables placed at one side. 1t was hard
to tell whether the flowers on the tables
or the children's faces above it were the
brightest and sweetest Rcvs. John
Speal1e, G. a. Wright and Col. Luavcll
were present and spoke words of en-
conragement to the Sunday schools
represented. ~

The hIIno,al Spring at Jalspa.

While at Jalapa the other day we de-
clued to- 'isit the mineral spring at
mat place. MIR. G. w. l.. Spearlnan
ou whose land it partly lies went with
"s-and "us" in this case means Treas
nrer Z. f. Boyd and the editor. After
winding around the hills for about a
mile we finally came upon the spring
nesting in valley between two hills
and beside brook which goes on for
ever 1t is u beautiful place and sur
ronnred by the natural grow th of tho
forest. In passing wo might say that
the hills which rise from the spring
nave on their crestS the most charm
ing OF locations for Il magrilcent sum-
mer hotel, and Mr.. Spearman told us
that on one Of these hills IL the most
elevated spot in the township. This
spring has been known as possessing
good mineral properties for II century
or more and people have gone there
and still 20 there for miles to drink
tn" water and get some of it 10 take
away.
We spent about an hour there and
drank freely of the water. We believe
IT possesses good mineral properties
and that If the spring were cared for
and the attention of the people was
called to the water that those in search
OF health and good wntcr would 90
there from all sections of the country.
n partial analysis Of the water has
been made, but u more careful and
complete analysis should be made.
We have IL spring right here at our
doors that will rival Glenn's or Harris
or Buffalo Lithia. We hope some one
who is interested will look into this
matter and that without further de-
lay.
This water has been permitted to run
into the branch for too many Years
especially when We remember there
are SO many suffering mortals who
could be cured by simply drinking of
This health giving water.
We might build an elecLric railway
! from Nrwberry out to Julapa where
the spring Is, at a very small cost by Sc
curing the road bed OF the Luurens
railway.
1t would give us pleasant place to
go for an evening ride ut small cX
pense. Nice pavilions and parks could
be built aud with u little clearing and
, building this could ~ made one of the
most attractive resorts in the country.
! The water has been tried with bene-
fetal results by suffering humanity
and L careful analysis will prove its
medicinal value.
We hope the parties who own the
property will form a company and de-
velop it without further delay.
Mr.. M. L. Spearman, progressive
merchant Of our town, and son of Mr..
G. w. l.. Spearman, has recently
bought several acres of the land around
and including the spring and will at
once proceed to develop it. He has al-
ready arranged to erect several cottages
and one OF them has been engaged for
another season.
