An important incident of the week was
the arrival of the newly appointed minis
ter from Spain, and his formal presenta-
ton to the President. Senior Bernabe was
received with as great courtesy as though
he represented the most popular nation of

Bernabe served as an attache in Washing

This gun viii be mounted on Romer
shoal in New York harbor, Enclosed and
protected by a turret. From this position
it will have a full sweep of the channels
entering New York harbor. With 900
pound charge of powder it will throw
1,OoO-pound shell fifteen miles. This shell
will move 1000 feet second, with stris-
ing energy equal to that Of 2OOO-ton ship
moving at full speed.

No known armor or material can with
stand this fearful impact. The heaviest
protection would be as cardboard, and
open in huge, jagged holes, while the shell
would tear and rend the very bowels of
an enemy's Warship.
So delicate is this greatest of the
worlds armament built, and so perfect is
the system of sighting and firing that the
enormous shell flies straight and true to
its target, miles away. as surely as a
sharpshooter plants his bullets in the bulls
eye with unvarying accuracy.
If mounted at Fort Tybee, in case of
hostilities with Spain, this gun would be
able to hurl a 2,S70-pound projectile at a
man-of-war accurately If one got within

1T was a good thing for the Association
League that the Library team won in

AS lost it would have put them so low
in the percentage column that they would
have been entirely out of the race for the
pennant, and great amount of interest
would have been done away with. The Y.

but, nevertheless, 1T is so.
Even as it is now, the Y NJ. c. A. team
has a big lead, but both of the other teams
say they are still in the race, and have not
given up the struggle. The Hebrew Asso-
cation team is composed of game players,
and they can be depended on TO fight to
the last. They never lose heart, and \ lille

the last game and his decisions gave gem
eral satisfaction. His judgment was good
and he was quick TO render his decisions.
There were one or two discussions between
the captains of the teams as TO decisions,
but Umpire Garmany's judgment was
thought by all players to be good.
Bob Brady, who played such a good
game for the Library team last season,
has returned TO Savannah and will be
seen in the next game the Library team
plays. Brady has Just emerged from a
long siege Of sickness, and has been away
for his health. He is one of the Library s
strongest players, and they are glad ia

them as solid as light material could
make them; then to hold them in place,
four four by four inch posts were set
in the ground IA feet high, with four
plates at the top to hold the posts in
position and keep them plumb. The
roof was placed in position before the
posts were set up, having the corners at
the cave ends of the roof set so as to
permit the roof to slide up or down on
or between the posts. Holes were bored
in the posts to put in pins to hold the
roof up. When Il is time to begin
stacking, fasten the roof at the top Of
the posts and begin the stack between
the posts. Build to a finish, or in case
there is not enough hay cut, put in
what there is, stopping work on the

uow 10 Huild a Movable Roof for the
Haystack Which Assures
Absolute Protection.

Few understand the art of stacking
so that rain will not get into the ceu-
ter. One great enemy 70 keeping hay
is the wind, especially in Kansas.
Many times the farmer gets his hay
and grain stacked up in good condi-
ton, and along comes a gust of wind
and all of his labor is swept away, as
far as the keeping qualities Of his stack
are concerned. Enough hay goes to
waste every year on many farms to
pay for lumber to cover it. In Illinois,
years ago, stacks of hay were rooted
with three-eighths or fye-eighths inch
