a torpede-b boat, sharp and low at
both ends, with two fuonels close
together. She had no masts. The
weather was quite hazy, and it was
impossible to discern the color Of
her hull. She showed no flag, evil
IDENTITY endeavoring to conceal her
nationality. She was steaming at
the rate OF twelve knots an hour,
about the same speed as the Roman,
and continued in the sauna direction
for fully half an hour after she was
sighted by the Romans second Of
ficer, apparently gaining slightly on
the Roman. A thick fog then settled
over the ocean and the torpedo boat
was lost to view. Pilot Lawler, who
brought in tho Roman, notified
Captain Sands Of the Columbia, and
he sent one Of his lieutenants to the
Roman for full particulars to report
to Washington.

were apparent at the War Depart
ment to-day. The officials had be-
fore them list of between fifteen
and twenty vessels, whose home port
is on the Pacific Coast, and we're
making preparations looking to their
charter as transports. Their aggre-
gate capacity is more than ample for
the purposes of the Government.
Should all be secured the War De-
partment will be able TO send cavalry
troops to the PHILIPPINES in case this
is deemed necessary. The assign.
ment OF one battalion OF infantry,
two batteries Of light artillery aud
one troop OF cavalry Utah's appor.

men, two regiments Of infantry and
two batteries OF heavy artillery
from California, one regiment Of
Infantry from Oregon, one from
Washington and one battalion OF

COFFEES

Some are cheap now. Cheap
cereal adulterated coffees are
very plentiful and are forcing
down the prices of the old
Kona product, especially the
medium and lower grades
with which they compete.
The higher grades of Isl
and coffees have declined a
little in sympathy.
Our customers are the first
to benefit by reductions.
Fine coffees are scarce and
no reductions can be made in

From the New York Sun.

When a sailor on deep-water ship has
a toothache he is likely to go to the cap
tain. The captain gives him something
out of the medicine chest to put in his
TOOTH and if that doesn't cure il perhaps
he pulls it. 1t is a common thing for
sailors to pull their own teeth. Their
method is to put a string around a tooth
and pull il; but dental forceps are car
ried on deep-water ships, on some vessels
a fair outfit of them. A ship captain OF
long experience said that in the course
of his life at sea he had pulled 200 teeth.
The ships medicine chest on large YES
sells is like a closet or cupboard, with
glass door, built in the ship. In this
closet the medicine bottles, gilt-labeled,
are arranged on shelves that rise one
above another in receding tiers; il is prac-
tically a .well-appointed little drug store.
There is supplied with the medicine chest
a book explaining the uses of the med,-
cines. The captain is likely TO have some
other book on medical subjects which ne
has read and studied, and he is likely to
have had a good deal of experience before
attaining the rank of master of the ship.
The sailors are generally healthy men,
but, when occasions requires, the captain
prescribes; he Is the physician. Limbs
broken at sea are. of course. set there,
and there might be circumstances in which
the captain would not hesitate to perform
a surgical operation.
