Advances Without Profit,

Sugar trust stock sold up yesterday above
1913, though it closed around l22, says the
New York Times Of the 22d inst. Strength
was given to the stock in the early part OF
the day by the announcement that refined
sugars were advanced fraction. This was
construed among the lesser spectators OF
the street as signifying that perhaps after
all agreement might be approaching be-
tween the trust and competing refineries
Later, however, it was disclosed that raw
sugars had gone up ahead of the advance in
refined.
The recent pool organized to drive Sugar
trust shorts out of the market has been
dissolved. but some of the subscribers to II
seem to have been left with considerable
holdings of the stock, and, being versatile,
they are giving to the street much cheerful
suggestion of good things which may de-
velop; they have even begun to elect a. sue
cessor to Mr.. H. o. Ilavemeyer as president
of the Sugar trust Mr.. Havemeyers feel
ings in the matter being treated with de-
lcous disdain.

FREED BY BLANCO.
Captain General Says War Is over
and Lfberates All Cuban
Prisoners.

Washington, Aug. S.-News has just
reached Washington from Havana of a
recent astounding proclamation of
amnesty in which Gen. Blanco has
made known to the Spanish people of
Cuba that Spain had, through the in
tervention of foreign powers, been
forced to the disgraceful issue of suing
for peace, and that there would be no
more war and no further use for sol
diers. He offered a pardon to all
Cuban political prisoners, and over
$50 were released in Havana.
In explaining Spain's defeat in his
proclamation Gen. Blanco informs his
credulous readers that Spain, having
suffered so much in the present war,
could not resist the interference of
the foreign powers and go to war with
all countries at once so she was com
PEELED TO accede to their dictation and
sue for peace.
Havana, Gen. Blanco says, will be
given over to the Americans and
Cubans and the Spaniards will be
forced to evacuate. He assures the
soldiers and all Spanish residents who
wish TO return to Spain or GO to other
Spanish possessions that they will be
given free transportation by their
mother country to their destination
and will be protected from interfer-
ence on the part of either Cubans or
Americans. He suggests that the Gu
bans be forgiven and no longer regard
ed as enemies and that no unkind feel
ing be cherished.

LAID IN RUINS.
Best Part of Bismarck, n. D., De-
stroyed by Fire-LOsses Esti-
mated Mt Fully SI,OOO,00O.

Bismarck, n. d., Aug. o.-Fire Tues
day night quickly ate up property of
the value of $1,000, 900. Oil, powder
and frame buildings contributed in
causing the spread of the confagration,
which a poorly equipped FIRE depart
ment was utterly unable TO cope with.
The best portion of the city is
mass of ruins. The flames originated
in the agents Office of the Northern
Pacific depot. Almost before they were
discovered the entire building and the
immense warehouse of the company
were in flames, which had spread to the
block of brick buildings across
the alley, destroying the Tribune,
Hare's hardware store and an entire
row of buildings. The flames then
leaped the street to the magnificent
First national bank building, which
melted away in a few minutes.
The Central block followed, and the
flames spread TO the post Office, sweep
ing over the entire block and carrying
down the post office, the Merchants
Bank block, Griffin block and all the in
termediate frame and brick struc-
lures. The fire then spread across and
devoured Kupitz' store and great
part of the block. The flames also
spread north into the residence block
and completely Quilted 1t. The fire
men were powerless TO check the in
road of the fire, which spread to hun
dreds of buildings, licking them up as
so much waste paper. The origin of
the fire is unknown, as no one was in
the freight office when it started. 1t
is impossible 20 estimate the'loss. All
wires are burned out, the Western
Union office being one of the first to
go, and the railroad Office destroyed. A
temporary cut-in was made to handle
imperative business.
Over 40 buildings were destroyed.
bismarck is the capital Of North Dakota
and is situated in Burleigh county. The
town is very advantageously situated or
the Northern Pacific railroad and is one

has been known for all sorts of typlca.ly
western traits. but always has been pros
porous and we'll TO do. 1t Is on the east
bank of the Missouri river, and the waters
OF the stream are navigable for boats OF
700 tons for not less than 200 miles above
the city. Bismarck has an immense river
warehouse and the water traffic Is cousid-
cradle. 1t is estimated that not less than
rs, coo 600 pounds of freight are shipped an
nually over the river. Ships are constant
~ in the docks at Bismarck, and this traf-
fic IS really the greatest of the city's trade.
The city has a population now of from 1000
to 5000 having increased from the time OF
the last census-1S90-when IL was 2,1S6. Bis

HOGS AND THEIR WAYS.
Don't feed much, if any, corn in hot

Don't feed much, if any, corn in hot
weather.
Build the hog houses so they will be
light, give them a southern front; the
sunlight and warmth viii add much TO
comfort and health.
Glover is fine for hogs it is the grass !;
but clover alone will not fatten hogs in
satisfactory form. Clover is good, but
is not the whole thing"
The prevalent notion among farmers
that brood sow should be kept in
low flesh is contrary to the best expert
fence. Give an abundance of succu-
lent food.
Pigs have no relish for real cold food
or water. In summer it is better for
them TO drink water that has stood in
the sun long enough to get much
warmer than when drawn from the
well.
Don't neglect TO provide in some way
constant supply of fresh water for
the hogs. The idea that the hog is
partial to everything that is dirty has
long been exploded. He appreciates
as much as other stock a supply of
good water.
Contagious diseases cannot be alb
solutely prevented by the most healthy
system of feeding and caring for hogs,
but if they have plenty of healthy food,
good grazing and pure water they are
far better able to resist the assaults
of contagious disease and escape the
dangers of any others.-Rural World.
