and for more than an hour worked un-
molested on the cable. Suddenly, just
as the work was about completed, the
shore battery fred shell at the boats.
1t was followed by others, and the
Spanish infantry opened fire then with
their rifles. Then, like a fash, the
Marblehead sent a shell inland and
followed it with perfect shower Of
shot The Nashville was quick to fol-
low suit, and the little Window cut
loose with her four-pounders.
In the meanwhile Spanish bullets
fell in every direction around the
small boats. Though the attack had
come suddenly and fiercely the blue
jackets were not dismayed, and, pro-
tected by the terrific return fire of the
warships, work was continued and the
cable cut.
The Spaniards had by this time suf-
fered severe loss. Their shots from
the lighthouse struck the warships sew
eral times, and, although they did not
do much damage, the fire aroused the
determination of the American officers
to exterminate the fort Thereafter,
for the moment, the fire of the war
ships was concentrated upon the light
house and the improyised fort was
blown to pieces. AS there were great
numbers of Spaniards in and behind
the fort at the time there is no doubt
that many Of them were killed. The
Marblehead and the Nashville used
their heaviest guns, as well as their
small rapid-fire guns, and hundreds Of
shots were thrown into the Spanish
troops.
The Marblehead was struck scores of
times by bullets from machine guns
and the Nashville suffered to about the
same extent The Window also had
many marks Of the fray. Her shell

The CoIoring Habit.

Is there no way of stopping this
abominable way of coloring butter and
cheese a rich orange red instead of
mild straw yellow? Some one says
coloring butter is dirty trick and
am much inclined to think so myself,
writes L. S. Hardin in Home and Farm.
Coloring matter is made of all sort of
stuff, from a filthy mass of seeds called
anatto that comes in a dirty package
from South America, to analine, rank
poison taken, 1 believe, from the offal
of coal oil. There should be law for
bidding it's use in butter and cheese as
well as oleo except, perhaps, in goods
intended for expectation, when they
should go in hand to the seashore. The
fact is there is no need for coloring
dairy goods. Any kind of a good cow
will color her milk if you will feed her
roots. green cured hay or ensilage in
winter, while she can not help coloring
It while on grass. Guernseys and Jer-s
seys have more color than other breeds.
I am glad to state that the fashion"
with fine butter is getting lighter in
color all the time. Some makes of
coloring matter are comparatively
clean. but some are vile and have been
known to kill children that ate them.
Let us get rid of the bad habit.

The Oklahoma experiment station Is
trying a series of feeding experiments,
largely to determine value of Kafir
corn. Some interesting results have
been obtained. All the trials confirm
the belief that Kafir corn in any form
is healthful and palatable food for
any class Of farm animals. The Katr
stalks and leaves have been eaten as
readily as have corn stalks. Horses,
cattle, sheep and hogs all eat kalr
grain, ground or unground, readily,
and no indications of any unsatisfac-
tory effect on health have been seen.
There is large waste when the grain
is fed unground to horses or cattle;
apparently much less when fed to
sheep. In a series of digestion expert
iments with steers it has been found
that about one-half the seed passes
through the animal undigested.
large part of this is made use Of If
hogs follow the cattle. Contrary to
general opinion the per cent Of undi-
gested grain was practically the same
when it was fed in the head or
thresned. With two lots of steers as
nearly alike as it was practicable to
secure them, the lot fed Kafir meal
made larger gains than those fed corn
meal, even when the feed was changed
from one lot to the other. The largest
gain made by any lot for any period
was by one fed one-half Kafr meal,
one-half corn meal. From some un-
known reason another lot so fed made
no gains, so that the average gain in
all the trials with this mixture is some
what less than the average where Kahr
meal was fed alone, but slightly larger
than the average gain where corn meal
was the only grain food. The best
average gain by different lots was
where they were fed Kafir meal with
a moderate allowance of cotton seed
about four pounds per animal per day.
One lot the chief grain feed of which
was Kafir heads made average gain
of 1.85 per day. The companion lot,
fed Kafir meal, made average gain Of
2.36 pounds. The steers ate slightly
less weight of heads than the others
did of the meal.
During the first four weeks Of feed
ing-not counting preparatory period,
a lot full fed broken ears of corn made
average gain of 1927 pounds per day.
The companion lot given same food
but slightly less than they desired,
made average gain of 1.66 pound. Each
lot had all they would eat of trough
feed" Where cotton seed was the only
grain feed the average gain per day by
young steers was only one pound.
lot of lambs have kept in good health
with only Kaf1r heads as grain feed,
but have not made great gain in
weight In no case have hogs done
quite so well when fed on Kafir as
when fed Indian corn. These trials
have not been extended enough to
justify drawing positive conclusions,
except that it may be counted settled |
that Kafir corn is very valuable grain |
crop for Oklahoma, and, probably, the
most valuable one for large part OF
the territory.

a certain extent since the Hawaiian

CARRIERS ARE GAYER.
Than Ever Before, and Startling IN Their
BrilIiancy.


New York Sun: Carriers are gayer
than ever before. No woman dreams
of wearing plain elastic bands to keep
up her stockings nowadays. Indeed,
garters are now made so many colored
that the rival the fashionable hosiery
itself when it comes to startling brill
liancy. A garter can come about as
near marring or making a woman's
happiness as any trifiing accessory to
her toilet Women generally, long
ago, gave up the elastic band which
held the stocking up below or above the
knee. Health culturists first told them
that it was injurious, preventing per
feet circulation, but the sex chung to
it with it's bejeweled buckles and beau
tiful rows of ribbon. Then the cul-
turists told them that the round gar
ter would spoil the shape of the leg.
and they dropped it like a hot cake
and adopted the suspender garter or
stocking supporter, as it is oftened
called The newest supporters are
made of very broad and fancy silk elias
tic in brilliant Scotch plaids or Roman
stripes, or else plain elastic covered
with ribbons that would shame JOS
eph's coat, put on full. The catches
and side buckles are Of white metal,
silver, silver g.lded and pure gold, and
some of them are Sudden with pre-
cious and semi-precious gems. One
style fastens around the waist of the
wearer by means of satin belt match
ing in color the predominating color
of the elastic; the other fastens at the
side of the corset with catch pins. Both
methods are unsatisfactory. The waist
band is warm in summer, and de-
stroys the lines about the waist. 1t
is. indeed, impossible for a woman in
clinSd to be stout. The other, if Of
such a length as to keep the stocking
up properly, pulls on the corset and
gives the wearer q most uncomfort-
able, tired feeling toward the end of
the day All of these drawbacks have
a tendency to make a woman conclude
that after all her great grandmother
was right in declaring that the most
satisfactory garter in the world was
a string torn from selvedge edge of
a piece of flannel and wrapped just
loose enough for comfort and tight
enough for convenience about the
stocking above or below the knee. A

upon which the fire of the warships
had been centered. A four-inch shell
from the Window tore this structure
to pieces, killing many and burying
Others in the ruins. The Spanish loss
is known to have been very heavy, the
warships firing hundreds OF shells
right into their midst.
The United States cruiser Marble
head, the gunboat Nashville and the

the shore and lay concealed behind i'm
provised breastworks.
Soon after the arrival of the war
ships off Cienfuegos four boats were
launched and proceeded in shore for
the purpose of graphing for the cable

that the old lighthouse, far out on a

Amid a perfect storm Of shot from
Spanish rifles and batteries the Amer

Cos Wednesday morning, May II.
Four determined boat crews, under
command of Lieutenant Winslow and
Ensign Magruder, from the cruiser
Marblehead and the gunboat Nashville,
put out from the ships, the coast hav-
ing previously been shelled The work
of the volunteers was perilous, and one
was killed while bravely doing his du-
ty, six others being seriously wounded.
The man instantly killed was Patrick
Reagan. None Of the ships was dam
aged to any extent The cruiser Mar
blehead, the gunboat Nashville and the
auxiliary cruiser Window drew up 1000
yards from shore with their guns
manned for desperate duty.
One cable had already been cut and
the work was in progress on the other
when the Spaniards in rife pits and
battery in an old lighthouse, standing
out in the bay, opened fire. The war
ships poured in a thunderous volley,
their great guns belching forth mass

proceeded with their desperate work,

smoke and a heavy fire.
More than 1000 ;nfantrymen on shore
kept up a continuous fire and the bull

warships a hundred times, but did no
great damage. Commander Maynard
of the gunboat Nashville was slightly
wounded by rife bullet that before
striking him passed through the arm
of an ensign, whose name is unknown.

PHILIPPINE REVENUES.
Customs Duties Are to be Collected by the
Military.

Washington, May 24.-In anticipa-

Philippine islands by the land and
naval forces of the United States, the
treasury department has already begun
the formulation of regulations and
scheme of customs tariffs which will
be collected by the military authori-
ties, and turned into the treasury of
the United States "as a military con-
tribution. That the president has
authority to collect the Philippine reve-
nues under existing conditions is not a
matter of doubt. 1t was several times
done during the last war with Mexico,
and the authority of the government
in the premises was sustained by decis-
ions of the United States supreme court.
