World from Key West says:
The gunboat Wilmington early this
morning destroyed a Spanish fort just
being finished about four miles east
of Cojima. The Wilmington also fired
at a troop OF cavalry passing Jaruco
Beach. Two men were seen to drop on
the beach.
The torpedo boat Ericsson on Sunday
noticed large number of infantry
passing eastward toward Matanzas on
for miles but used no guns
Later they noticed another large body
of infantry going eastward and APP
parently driving prisoners before them.
The Ericsson saw about 200 cavalry
and 300 infantry passing Jaruco Beach
toward Matanzas.
She signalled the Wilmington, which
fired small gun and then four-inch
shell. Though IA miles away, two
men could be seen to drop and the
cavalry and infantry dashed pell mel
into the bushes and up the hill. There
was a fine confusion of horses, pack
mules and cavalry and infantry for ar
instant.
The Ericsson yesterday discovered 6
force of men building fort near Co

hills at some distance from the shore

Wire system.

Coroner's Jury Puts Blame on bad
Wire System.
"That they and each of them
came to their death respectively
on the 22d day of Oct, 1898, in
Honolulu, Island of Oahu, by
coming in contact with a primary
electric light wire carrying 1000
volts of electricity at that place
on King street in said Honolulu,
where their bodies were found,
which wire prior thereto, had been
severed or broken by coming in
contact with a neighboripg wire
thus causing short circuit where
by said primary wire was severed
and the two severed ends thereof
fell to the ground. We further
find in general, that the electric
light plant and system of Homo
lulu is lacking in many essential
aud important respects, thus rend-
ering the same menace to hui
man life; that we further find, in
particular, that there is no indie
pendent, systematic inspection of
said electric light plant and sys-
TEN; that, had transformers been
placed on the opposite side of the
corner of King and Richards
streets instead of where it was, at
the time of this occurrence, two
lives would have been saved, as
the wire would then have
carried only about fifty five volts
of electricity and rendered the
same harmless; that the placing of
wires heavily charged with electri-
city, over public tnoroughfares
and streets at II low elevation, is
improper aud dangerous to life;
that the using of wooden insula-
tor pins in this climate, where
they are likely to be weakened
and destroyed by insects, is also
improper and dangerous. We
further fud, from the evidence
adduced, that the present Super
intendent has, with the resources
available, done all in his power to
put the system into proper aud
safe condition."

chin near the camp of the last repre-

toes were blue and red from the cold.

Nut Trees.

The age at which any nut trees come
into bearing depends on the care given
to the trees. Some authorities state
that fifteen or twenty years are neces-
sary to bring them into full bearing
from the time the nut is planted. This
is a mistake, as trees that have been
well cared for should bear a bushel Of
nuts in ten years, and the amount will
increase rapidly each year after that
time. Some may enjoy raising these
trees from seed; to be sure, it is rather
a slow process, but it Is interesting
work. When planting the nuts, if they
have thin shells, be perfectly sure that
they have not dried out at all. The best
plan is to get them as soon as they
this is not possible, keep them In moist
sand or sawdust until they can be
started. Butternuts, walnuts, hickory
nuts and flberts, being hard-shelled,
will keep in growing condition much
longer, but should be planted in the
fall as they terminate better when al
lowed to freeze, as that cracks the
shell. The fall planting is natures
own plan, and the nearer we follow her
ways the better results we may expect.
Another thing, do not plant the nuts
deep; nature drops them on the sur
face and gives them thick covering
of leaves in which the dirt catches as
1t blows about, then the snow covers
all and helps the leaves to decay and
form covering Of leaf mould for the
tree to grow in. It is not practicable
for any of us to try to raise all these
kind Of nuts, but select the ones most
likely to succeed In our climate and by
proper care and attention make a sue
cess Of it. We may not reap the bene-
fit of our labors, but our children will,
and theiSs after them.-Vick's Maya
