Cuban Lecture.

Col. VIM. Ewing a veteran OF the
war of the Rebellion and Colonel in
the Cuban Army for two and one half
years, will address the people of En-
porium, at the Baptist Church, this
evening at 500 o'clock. Hear what
the people of Kane, Pa, say about
him:
"To whom it may concern: The
bearer of this note, gave thrilling
and most interesting address on his ex-
perience as Colonel in the Cuban
army at the first Congregational
church, of Kane, Mexican county,
Pa, before a packed house, upwards ot
five hundred people. His rehearsing
of the details of the deaths Of Seargent
Osgood, of Philadelphia and Gen.
Maceo, of the Cuban forces, are quite
different from the newspaper accounts
He holds his auditors well nigh spell
bound.
Col. Ewing is well worth hearing.
His tale of anxiety, sorrow and per,
sonal bereavement and loss, will gain
for him many friends and generous
support.

The Creamery's Advantages.
BY p. b. G.

BY P. b. c.
To-day / had some surplus butter
and sent it over to my grocer He
said that he could not take much at
any price, but would take a few
pounds week at twenty-five cents.
He had a contract with a creamery to
supply him with butter, as the people
demanded creamery. In times gone
by the same store was always glad to
get dairy butter, and would pay just
as much as for creamery butter,
provided it was good. The butter l
took over was good, as was evidenced
by the price offered, as strictly fancy
creamery prints self in Baltimore for
twenty-five to twenty-three cents, but
his customers wanted creamery but
ter no matter whether any other but
ter was just as good or not.
1t is true that lost a cent or two by
reason of the creamery, but think what
a hundred or more farmers who sup
ply that creamery with cream have
S'iiiiSu' iO ms llCoo I'ilSS III dttll y
butter quoted is nineteen cents, while
the lowest is twelve, and it is safe to
infer that the farmers would have got
the whole range of prices for their but
ter had they made it themselves in
stead of taking it to the creamery. 1t
is true that something had to be paid
| for making it, but it costs something
on the farm, and the extra freight
paid if the butter was shipped in 100
lots instead of one would nearly if not
quite pay what the creamery charged
for making it. Instead of having one
hundred different grades of butter
made by the one hundred farmers,
there was only one grade, and for that
the customers ought to be grateful,
too, so | bore my loss of two cents a
pound with a fair degree of equani-
nifty.

MORALITY.

EDITOR PREsS:-I noticed in last is
sue of the PRESS an article in relation
to the violation of certain laws, by our
local bicycle riders, yet there are other
laws of far more Importance so fla
grantly and wantonly violated by our
saloons and hotels, especially on the
Holy Sabbath day, day we are taught
to respect and revere, that it drives
the bicycle business into oblivion.
Yet, some. of the people will go to
church and sit in the front pew. Oh !!
Lord, have mercy upon such hypo-
cracy! We are called nearly every
Sunday to witness acts of disgust by
bright promising young men-men
who might fill high position-drift-
ing towards the brink of ruin and the
drunkard's grave. Why? because the
saloon keeper wantonly, and in def
ance of church, law and morality, vio-
late the license law.
What must be the feelings of wife,
mother, sister or brother, to witness
the stagger and drunken leer of a
brother or husband and know that
certain of our hotel lords are respon-
sible? Citizens of Cameron county, is
it possible that this thing is to always
go on? Are we never to have re-
dress? Is this arrogant rule of whis-
key and ruin to forever dominate our
town and ruin the bright prospects
of our homes? Oh! God forbid that
such should be the case. Every loyal,
law-abiding citizen should rise in their
might and fearlessly, without halt,
stamp out this accursed viper. Oh
that we could raise up in our midst
another Neal Dow or Father Mat
thews to carry on this war in behalf of
humanity, in behalf of the widow and
orphan, the mother and wife. Then
would our homes be bright and happy
and prosperous.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, June s.
Even more picturesque and bold
than the defiance of the big Con-
federate Merrimac by Erricsson's
little monitor was the exploit which
resulted in the sinking of the
Spanish torpedo boat destroyer.
Audacious as was the little craft
that made Ericsson famous, the
small Terror was much more so in
boldly attempting to run the
guantlet of the powerful American
fleet assembled about the entrance
to Santiago harbor. Unlike the
monitor the Terror failed to catch
the enemy mapping, and the AM
erican fleet demolished the little
stranger as quickly as Ericsson's
"cheese box'' disposed or her more
formidable looking enemy at
Hampton Roads.
Not sign of the Spanish boat
or the sixty men comprising her
crew has been seen since the 49,
inch shell fired by the battleship
Oregon struck her amidship. This
shot made an American victory of
an exciting hours work, and
thwarted the first attempt of the
Spanish to send naval re-enforce-
ments to Admiral Cervera.
1t is unlikely that either of the
torpedo boats with Admiral Ger
vera's warships in Santiago harbor
renewed the attempt to attack the
American fleet by night, even if
these small craft were able to pass
the wreck of the Merrimac. The
moon was high, "a fact which would
have deferred Cervera from risking
the loss of either of his torpedo
boats.
