SAN FRANCISCO. May 2s.-The Char
lesion is we'll on her way to Manila.
The big cruiser passed through the
Golden Gate at 500 Sunday morning
altering having been anchored in the
stream all night She adjusted her
compasses at an early hour and then
passed up the bay through the Raccoon
straits and past the docks on the
northern frontage of the city. Every
steam vessel in the harbor blew au re.
voir to Capt Glass and his crew. None
of the forts in the harbor saluted
the vessel, but the demonstration made
by the 5000 soldiers gathered at the
Presidio was tremendous. When the
vessel was sighted coming down the
bay the soldiers gathered on the beach
to bid her bon voyage. They lined the
beach for a mile and cheer upon cheer
rang out from the men who are to soon
follow the Charleston to the scene Of
Dewey's triumph. The Charleston's
big siren answered the boys on the
beach time and again and the whistling
was heard from one end of the city to
the other. Never has war vessel
leaving this harbor received such
sendof as was given the Charleston,
which was the first of the American
feet to be built on the Pacific coast.
She was launched from the Union iron
works in this city ten years ago, and
was one of the ''nest eggs" of the pres
ent American navy.

PROFIT m WAR.
A New York Syndicate IL Leasan6
Farms for . Novel Business
Venture.

With the approach Of war, numerous
"get rich quick" plans have come 70
light that will be put into operation -
soon as hostiiities are begun. ays .
Binghamton CN. ~ special. During
the last two weeks trio Of weil-dressed
individuals has been driving through
the country, endeavoring to procure the
lease Of farm lands in case Of war. The
men say that in case of hostilities the
price of farm products will rapidly ad-
vance and that they represent syndi-
cate comprised largely of Buffalo capi-
talists with backing amounting to ST.
100000.
The leases are being made on the
basis Of the sale Of last years crops.
The syndicate proposes to furnish its
own help and the farms will he worked
in systematic manner. As large
number of the farmers in this section
have signed contracts to raise beets for
sugar purposes this season, only four
farms have been procured in this To-
cality. Many offers were rejected be-
cause the farms were not up to the
standard of fertility or were too far
from the railroad. NE
Another plan to make money out of .
possible war is that of veteran who has
organized company of recruits at q
dollar head. agreeing to drill them
each evening until they are efficient in
the manual of arms. This he contends
would assure them positions as nom
commissioned officers. His class at pres
ent numbers 81 and is rapidly increas-
ing.
a hustling insurance man is getting
up prospectus for company that will
insure those who enlist. For deposits
of from S. 10 S1OO he agrees to pay
families of soldiers who may be killed

ease of wounding weekly indemnity.

DEAL IN 1cEBERGs.
Plan of Col. Sellers to Tow Them
south to Cure yellow
Fever.

Within the next few weeks, if you
happen to be gazing out over the ocean
and see huge iceberg go floating calm
ly by in tow of u pulling little tugboat,
you may set down that remarkable spec
tacle to mean that the 'Klondikesand
Cuba Ice-Towingand Anti-Yellow Fever
company" has got into working order.
The Kiondike and Cuba Ice-Towing
and Anti-Yellow Fever company is an
organization that is in earnest, DESPITE
the fantastic nature of its undertaking.
It intends to make a serious business
OF towing icebergs from the Klondike
to such countries in the southern seas
as are in need of refrigerating or COOL
ing applications, ice water, ice cream,
cracked ice for fever patients, etc.
The idea of towing icebergs to mar
ketis as unique in its commercial aspect
as it will be startling in its. optical ef-
feet upon those who are unused to see
ing mountains girded with ropes and
sailing docilely along over the water at
the pleasure of man and a towboat.
Their value upon arrival at the an
tipodes is estimated on several pe-
culiar assumptions: 1. That they will
cure yellow fever. 2. That when they
melt away they will yield large guam
titles of gold, which will be carefully
harvested. 8. That they can be towed
to their journeys end without serious
diminishment of size and value.
1t is all the scheme of some ingenious
gentleman OF Denver. COL, who has
rosy ideas of possible profits. He says:
Our profits will be established as
soon as we appear down there with q
few icebergs to begin on. They will
pay us at the rate of $1,000 per patient,
in cases Of speedy cure. That will ag-
gregate $4,000 per iceberg. If all goes
WELL"

Whereas, A number of our young men
have enlisted in the war against Spain

people, and for the purpose of bringing
to speedy close an unrighteous war,

and hallowed influence OF their church
and homes.
2. That while absent from US, whether
in camp, on the march, or in active con-
tiict, we will remember them in our
daily prayers to God for the preservation
of their health and lives, for the growth
of Christian character and manhood
and that as a result of their unselfish
and patriotic devotion to duty, a war
ridden island may be liberated, and
peace restored throughout the land.
