We refer to the comon use OF soda to

On-The Harbor Underground Passare,

On-The Harbor Underground Passage.
Havana. Feb. "a. via Key West, Fla.
Feb. H.-In connection with the claim
made by the Cubans that there are
mine galleries under the harbor of
Havana, leading from subterranean
passages and known to have existed
for years before Fort Cabanas, Moro
Castle and the port, the Spaniards ex-
plain that for over century a sub
terranean passage about two miles
long and eight feet at its narrowest
diameter. capable of giving passage to
Il column of troops, have existed from
the navy yard to Castillo Del Principe.
But, the Spaniards further assert, the
existence of this passage was not
known to the present authorities or to
those who have been in power for many
years past. The entrances and exits,
1t is added have been closed for many
years past by the thick walls now COW
cred with debris, and their exact loca-
tion is said to be lost. At the same
time it is admitted that matter regard
Ing the 5ubterranean passage can be
found In old documents contained in
the archives of Havana. Finally the
Spaniards insist that this passage does
not go under the harbor at any point.
Under the surface here there seems
to be n deep feeling of unrest. No one
believes that autonomyis or can be
anything but a name, and there is Il
still more deep-rooted belief that the
United States will not suffer the pres
ent condition of things to continue
much longer.
on Saturday last a party of about
forty guerillas left n fort on a farm
near Augacate, about forty miles from
this city. as was their custom. to dine
ut neighboring place. During the
absence of the guerillas detachment
of about fifteen insurgents occupied
the fort. and when the garrison re-
turned from dinner the insurgents fell
upon them with machetes and killed
about twenty-five Of the forty gueril-
las.

ANCIENT POLITICAL "RINGS."
Olden Time Schemes For Obtaining Wealth
and Power.

Olden Time Schemes For Obtaining Wealth
and Power.
The evil Of monopolies and rings was
known to nncients, Aristotle referring
to them in his Politics." and then, as
now, it was found necessary to hold
them in check by legislation. The mo-
nopolist was in Roman law called a
dardanarius and punished under the
Lex Julia de Ammonia. Monopolies of
clothing, fish and all articles of food
were prohibited by the Emperor Zeno
under pain Of copfscation and exile, SO
that it is certain that the "rings'' Of
the ancient days were as mischieyous as
they are now. At Athens law linz
tied the amount Of a corn man might
buy. The earliest recorded instance we
have was corn "ring."
There is an ancient tradition that the
king who made Joseph his prime min
lister aud committed into his hands the
entire administration of Egypt was
Apepi. Apepi was one of the shep-
herd kings and ruled over the whole Of
Egypt as Joseph's pharaoh seems to
have done. The prime minister during
seven years Of remarkable plenty bought
up every bushel of corn beyond the alb
solute needs Of the Egyptians and stored
it. During the terrible famine that fol-
lowed be was able to get his own price
and bartered corn successfully for the
Egyptian money, cattle and land, and,
taking one-tifth for pharaoh, made him
supremely wealthy. 1t was not merely
provident act, but very polite one,
his policy being to centralize power in
the monarch's hands. London An

Whatever the Turveydrops of the
moral world may have to say about the
necessity for elevating moral deport-
ment on the part of "wooman, bewitch-
ing woman, have never been able to
see any indubitable intent in nature her
self toward binding them over to any
higher moral standards than she docs

to DO compounded OF the same average
morality, though with certain unlike
manifestations, largely tho result Of cir
cumstances and opportunities

that the average woman under like
temptation would do very differently

Antifnt Mr.. Banting's Joke.

The late George Won Bunsep, the &C.
complished and delightful son Of the
baroness whose Life and Letters" are
well known in America, once told me
an anecdote Of the late Princess Mary
of Teok and the celebrated Banting.
The princess became, in her middle life
enormously stout, and finding her
weight burden tried several methods
Of reducing it. At last, having heard
much of Banting, she sent for him. She
was surprised to see that he was still
extremely bulky, and after a few civil
preparatory remarks she said, "But
your system has not made You very thin,
Mr.. Banting"
"Allow mo, madam" said Banting.
And proceeding to unbutton his coat
he disclosed Il large wire structure over
which the garment fitted. Inside was
the real Banting, incased in another
coat
"This, madam" said he, pointing
with pardonable satisfaction to his
cage, twas my size before commenced
dieting" He then nimbly disembarrass
ed himself of his framework and stood
before the royal lady exhibiting his ele-
giant figure.
Apparently the interview led to moth
ing but amusement, for the good Ouch
ess of Teck remained very stout to the
end Of her days.-Exchange.

Protecting Late Sown Grain.

"We doubt whether it is practically
possible to protect late sown grain by
any covering whatever in the climate Of
western New York." says American
Cultivator. "1f you have manure, how
ever, that you can spare to top dress the
wheat after the ground has been frozens'
that is another matter. The manure,
unless in greater amounts than we
should advise for wheat, will amount to
very little as protection. What effect
twill have is as manure after the grow
ing season begins, and especially to
make vigorous clover growth for the
young clover. Five Or six loads per acre
thinly spread will be sufficient for this,
and that of course means that much Of
the surface will have only very small
amount of manure OH each Of the 49,
$50 square feet surface that an acre
contains.
1.-The notion that grain straw scattered
over the fields will be of any benefit
whatever is an absurdity. The straw
cannot prevent tho soil beneath it from
freezing. But in spring it acts as a
mulch just at the time when the young
grain needs all the sunlight it can get
to warm the soil. So the mulch in
spring will do as much harm if not
more than it gave of benefit during the
winter In most cases, however, fall
mulching with straw results in the
straw being piled next tho fences by
winds blowing across the fields In such
case it does no good at any time and is
simply waste of the straw"

THE COTTON GIN.

How . Woman Helped Whitney to Per-
feet His Great Invention.
"Recollections Of Washington and

fury by Martha Littlefeld Phillips.
They we're taken down from the lips of
the authors grandmother, who was the
youngest daughter of General Nathan
ael Greene. The following is one of the
stories:
During my life at Dungeness cir
cumstance occurred there of some his
torio and scientific interest and in re.
gard to which much erroneous state
ment has been made refer to the in
vention Of the cotton gin by Eli Whit
ney and my mothers connection with
it. The facts, briefly stated, were about
as follows: While spending the previ-
Gus summer at Newport r. l., my
mother became acquainted with Mr..
Whitney and grew much interested in
the outcome of the experiments he was
then making in the interest of his pro-
jected gin. To assist in his enterprise,
my mother invited him to spend the
following winter at Dungeness, where
an abundance of cotton and quiet could
be assured. Mr.. Whitney accordingly
came to Dungeness and diligently pur-
sued his experiments, room in the
fifth story having been specially fitted
for his use as an inventor. One morn
ing he descended headlong into the
drawing room, where number of
guests were assembled and excitedly
exclaimed, The victory is minep In
deep sympathy with him the guests
and hostess went with him to his work.

For few moments the miniature saws
revolved without hindrance and the
separation of the seed from the cotton
wool was successfully accomplish, but
after little the saws clogged with lint,
the wheel stopped, and poor Whitney
was in despair.
Here's what you need, exclaimed
my mother in her clear, decisive way,
and she instantly seized clothesbrush
lying on the mantel and held it firmly
to the teeth of the saws Again the
drum revolved, and instantly the saws
were cleaned of the lint, and the last
requirement Of the great invention was
satisfied.

with emotion and speaking with the
exaggeration of gratitude, you have
perfected my inventionn"

AMERICAN LUMBER SUPPLY.
Hhs RtAating Of Forssts Likely to NJ ~
Important Industry,

rhs Pihating Of Forssts Likely to NJ ~
Important Industry.
Looking not very far into the future.
It seems that the planting Of American
forests will become productive indus
try. Preservation Of old forests, with
their masses of dry underbrush and fire
inviting collections Of dry leaves, may
be advisable for some reasons. These
immense masses of frewood undoubted-
ly tend to collect snow, which, by its
gradual melting, furnishes supply to
the water reservoirs beneath the surface
Of the ground Snow thaws less quickly
under the shade Of trees than In the
bright sunlight. Less water, therefore,
runs to supply floods and freshets than
when the snow is made to pass away
gradually. But this question does not
affect the solid timber interests
In old forests, where there is q strug-
gle for life among the trees by reason
OF their growing so thickly together,
the result is the necessity Of waiting
many years before the trees will reach
size to make them desirable for tim
Der purposes. Where trees have room to
grow and are properly cared for most
kinds Of American trees will furnish
useful timber in 30 or 80 years, and for
many other purposes they can be en-
ployed even younger. 1t takes well on
to century for the struggling trees in
dense wood to have any marketable
value.
While good timber is becoming grad
ually scarcer on account of our annual
forest fires, rising from the conditions
already stated, the demand is increasing,
and, what is more remarkable, Europe
is already calling on America for sup
ply Of lumber. American oak especially
is in great demand in the old world,
while our black walnut Is closely fol-
lowing in its wake. Our lighter woods
also-such as the tulip tree and poplar
are coming into great demand there
for packing boxes and cases where light
weight is great object. Those who are
interested in forestry in our country
should take up the matter Of encourage
ment of forest planting. 1t will soon be
greater question than forest preserya-

An all important matter in growing
vines is to see that they are constantly
supplied with sufficient water. Planted
as they usually are, in situation where
they are exposed to the sun major
portion of the day, the soil dries out
very rapidly, and plenty of water
should be given when necessary. In the
event Of red spiders attacking the foil
age Of the tender sorts of ANIMALS, a
daily Swinging will quickly eradicate
the pests. To induce low, bushy
growth in ANNALS, cut the tips of the
runners. Hardy vines, such as wistari-
as, honeysuckles, etc., when not grow
ing too rapidly, can be trimmed with
little or no injury. -Woman's Home
