mosrEso,s POOR LOT OF SHIPS.
spanish Naval Officer Tells Why Dewey
Had an Easy Task.


Hong Kong, May 26.-lCopyrighted,
1898, by the Associated Press. captain
Concha of the Inflated Spanish cruiser
Don Juan de Austria, destroyed at the
battle of Manila, says that the Spanish
commanders were quite aware that
fighting was hopeless, but were forced
to It by state of public opinion at Ma
Mia. He and other officers wished to
steam out Of the harbor to meet the
Americans, but Admiral Montejo for
babe that move.
Captain Concha says that the Spanish
feet was in disgraceful condition. The
engines of the cruiser Don Antonio de
Ulloa were broken; the Castillo was
leaking and needed engines to keep the
water under; the Don Juan de Austria
had only two guns that could be fired;
the Marques del Duero had only one
gun, while the Isla de Cuba and the
Isla de Luzon had only their decks pro-
tected. He declares, however, that had
the Americans not withdrawn by III
o'clock the Spanish intended to steam
out and die to the last man.

From the Columbus Dispatch:
The cooking lecture by Miss Packard this

tertainiDg. The lecture is one of series, and
both lectures and demonstration are under
the auspices of the New Era cooking school.

"Health and its relation to the building up
of the human structure
thursday. January 81. 1898.
Interest among all seemed to center in
the cooking lecture and demonstration of
Miss Ethel LavOn Packard This was only
the fourth lecture that has been given, but
the able demonstration has aeady succeeded
in building up n large and enthusiastic CHI
entage among the women of the city. She
has shown that she knows great deal
more than the average expert ok about
the proper preparation OF foods. and that
she can put her knowledge into practice
with equal skill.

them 81 Overland Special which is

in the lot which made the trip without
trouble of any kind. OyERLANDS
are the kind Of wheels that take you
away from home, and bring you back
again.
By the last Australia, We received a
few samples of the '9S OyERLANDS.
They are as much superior 10 the 81
product as daylight is superior to
darkness. and are without any excep-
tons. the most beautiful models, and
the highest grade wheels ever shown
here for anything near the price which
We shall sell them-S65. We defy all
