HAVANA HARBOR.
A Network of TorpedOes and
 Mines.

Th~ -orfruretion of inc harhor of
 Havana is peculiar. ShIps enter from the open sea through channel about 5gJ yards wide sLd lees than 8. mile long. At the entrance of the harbor lies Morro castle and it's neighbor La Cabaua, where so many Americans have been imprisoned. and the city of Havana is built to the right of the har- bor entrance. The Notifications around Havana are ample to defend the har- bor and destroy any warship once within, but form no protection to the city. Moro is mounted with the latest Krupp-guns, but on account of it's sit nation could be shelled by modern cruiser lying a few miles off and it's splendid guns put to silence. The city itself could be shelled and partially de- stroved by a war vessel without getting within the range of the guns of the fort. The visible Notifications are not the only defenses of Havana. The channel and harbor are honeycombed with a perfect system of torpedoes and mines having electrical connection with the arsenal. Should hostilities begin while any American vessel is. in the harbor. the pressing of key at the arsenal would be sufficient to destroy all mod ern warships within it.

Texas is Barred

The Washington Post of February 9 says. There was group in the accust- omed corner at Chamberlin' s, and much war talk was going on. It was a con- senus of opinion, as voiced by Sanborn Hopkins, Rye. ct al., that if the call to arms was made-and they believed it was coming the United States would cause Spain to look like 35 cents in a remarkably short space of time. Some of them thought, however, that Spain herself imagined she was fully able to cope with this nation.

United States Militia.
Toledo Blade

The possibility of war has turned public attention sharply to onr state of preparation for conflict. Naturally, our naval strength and coast defense are the first in interest; the question of the number of men ready for effective ser vice ln the army comes heXt.
 The regular army numbers only about 2 800 officers and men, and of course our first land force would have to be composed chiefly of the already armed and organized state militia-termed the National Guard in most of the states. This now numbers 113. .460 men, includ- ing general officers and their staffs. It Is divided among the three arms of the service as follows: Cavalry 5,590, artil- lery 4,906, and infantry 101 .873.
 The naval militia is not included in this enumeration, because it is not de- signed to operate as land force. It would be used to man vessels for coast and harbor defense. and for operating boat squadrons, with torpedoes, against the fleets of the enemy Tn our waters. It IS organized in seventeen states, and it's total enlistmentis 3.7S1. AS rule the men are we'll trained, and would make a very useful force. because it's men would take the place of an equal number of trained sailors Tn the regular navy who would then be employed in offensive operations at sea.
 The National Guard, taken as whole, could be very speedily organized and trained as an effective fighting force. Of course it would not be nearly so val uable force as regular army of the same number. It is not we'll armed. as 2 whole. The weapons are old patterns, long ago abandoned by regular armies. The efficiency of the cavalry end artil- lery would be handicapped by tFe lack of trained horses The infantry is req sOnabiy well drilled, and would soon be. como an effective fighting machine though there is great difference in eff cheney and disclplin between the forces of the different states, some being not far below regulars, while others are bat little better than raw volunteers, except for little instruction in the rudiments of drill and discipline.
 While the National Guard could not at once meet any regular European army on equal terms, it would soon, in actual.service. overcome all deficiencies. The intelligent freemen of the United States speedily become magnificent sol diers. In courage. physical strength and endurance, patriotic spirit and in telligence, our National Guard is far better than any troops that would be brought against us, and with some ex- perience Tn actual service, would be able to meet any equal nunper of the foe and vanquish them in the field.

THE TORY'S DAUGHTER.
1Minna IrYing.I

tMinna Irving The old colonial manor-houSe
 Is1falling, roof and rafter. The stueeo's peeling from the walls. The cornice dropping aft. r, And tangled weeds and poison vines
 And pools of greenish water Are in the garden where of old
 She walked-the Tory's daughter. She tripred between the laurel-hedge, And down the lilied closes; The dew was on her silken gown,
 Her hands were full of roses: And where the covered spring sen up Its jet of crystal water She found youth in buff and blue. And stopped-the Tory's daughter. She hushed the cry upon her lips
 (His eyes were dark and pleading) And knelt upon the trampled mint, For he was hurt and bleeding. She tore the kerchief from her neck To bathe his wounds with water, And lia liu lH r.s haunted wing And she g Tory daughter He told hor of the patriot cause.
 Its midnight and its morrow; The bleeding gh,sts of Bunker Hnl, The glory and the sorrow. The victory at Delaware
 Across the icy water; And when he spoke of Valley Forge She wept-the Tory's daughter. Her father in his scarlet coat,
 And boots of yellow leather, One morning found her lattice wide, And missed her hat and feather. Too late-along the sunny vale Where flowed the Mohawk's water, The Continental bore his bride. The Tory's lovely daughter. Wherever with the cannon's smoke The patriot souls ascended, She went-the angel of the camps Until the war was ended. To parching lips and fevered brow She brought the cooling water, And many dying soldier turned And blessed the Tory's daughter.

He Paid Two Fees.
rOnr Dumh AnimaIs-


 A close fsted old fafmer thought there was g good chance to get some legal advice from the young man, gratis, so he dropped into his office. told him how glad he was that he had come into town, because the old judge was getting superannuated, and contrived in the course of the talk to get the legal in- formation he wanted. and then bidding him good morning was about to leave, when the young man asked for his fee. What for?' said the old farmer. "For legal advice," replied the young law yer. "How much is it?" Five dollars" The farmer declated he would never pay it, and the young lawyer told him if he didn't he would sue him. So the farmer Htrotted down to see the old judge, whom he to md hoeing in his garden, and said, Judge, I went in this morning just simply 10 make neignborly call on that young scamp of lawyer who has just come into town and he charged me five dollars" "Served you right" said the judge. |'You had no business to go to him." "Well, haveI got to pay it?" Certainly you have" "Well, then. if I must, 1 must. Good morn- ing" "Ho!d on," sid the judge, Aren't you going to pay me?'' "Pay you, what for?' "Why, for legal advice, of course" "What do you charger" "Ten dollars" The result of which was the old fellow had to pay five dol lars to the young lawyer and ten dollars to the old one.
 Moral-Don't try to get legal advice for nothing.

The Rush for Sheep.
Southwestern stockman


 There is an inclination again for men to rush pell nell into sheep husbandry on the hypotheses that it will make them rich in few years. It is safe to say that some now entering upon the business of sheep raising will get out of it with much less money than they have now. While it is true that there are better opportunities now than for many years, the chances favor men who know the business and will give 1t their personal attention and prudent, econ omical and intelligent supervision. There is no other class of stock raising that puDishes blunder and mismanage- ment so promptly and inexorably. Many of us can recall the fever of ex- citement with which meu went into sheep raising eighteeu OF twenty years ago. Many .f ..-- .l!o .Au. ,.av knew nothing of life outside of cities. Many others who had been raised in the country, knew nothing of handling sheep on the range. For a year or so providence Seemed to favor them and the ignorant and inexperienced found success This fact built up the idea that experience was unnecessary. All sorts and classes of men bought sheep and turned them out on the vast ranges with herders as ignorant as themselves. In very few years the inevitable re suit of ignorance and mismanagement came and hundreds of men were hope. lessly wrecked. Now at this time we hope that profane history will not re. peat itself.
