Nothing less than unbearable torment
would induce sensitive minded women to
submit to the intolerable methods of the

TO REFiT OLD IRONSlDES.

An Appropriation to Fit Her For n
Training Ship Will BE Asked.
Secretary Long has included in his
estimates for the next fiscal year an
item of $50, 900 for beginning the work
of fitting the ship Of war Constitution,
commonly known as cold Ironsides, "
for use as a training vessel for naval ap-
prentices. For several years Chief Con-
structor Hichborn has ~endeavored to Sc
cure an appropriation for the purpose,
but his efforts were not successful until
this year. The total cost of putting the
Constitution in condition for active
service will be about $500, 900, and the
amount to be asked for by Secretary
Long is only a starter. The reasons for
the proposition advanced by Chief HIGH
born are mainly sentimental, but it is
commended by those in favor of putting
Old Ironsides in active service again
that she will be an excellent vessel for
the purpose intended.
The plans contemplate the preserva-
tion Of the original appearance of the
vessel. The gum ports will not be
changed and the rig will be that Of an
old ship Of war Of a century ago, but a
modern battery will be installed, and
there will be other changes to bring the
Constitution abreast of the times.-New

the hands Of energetic and resource
full people it seems to me should afford
the means for some small investors to
establish themselves with profitable re-
turns.
Where the bounties of nature are so
lavishly bestowed as in Porto Rico there
must be a variety of new things within
the reach of the American. Among
these are macaroni and chocolate fac
tories, spice and dye plants, fruit pack
ing establishments, etc. There are GER
tainly good openings for breweries. The
people are very fond Of beer, and it is
brought all the way from the United
States and Germany at very large ex-
pense. 1t is served with ice broken and
put into the glass, a process which Of
course lattens it disagreeably at once.
The class of cattle here, while they
present a good appearance to the eye,
are inferior as to beef and milk yielding
qualities. So far dairying has been I'M
successful by reason of the poverty Of
the milk, but why it would not pay to
bring in better stock both for the block
and for butter making I am unable to
see. Superior grades OF poultry might
also be imported. They sell for a good
price, and eggs bring 20 cents a dozen
much Of the year. 1t must be under
stood that the old ruts have been persist
emily followed here for centuries, but
the people appear to be quick to see
and appreciate better things when they
are pointed out to them.
What is to become the chief town of
the island seems to be a moot ques-
ton. San Juan has a superior harbor,
but the health and climatic conditions
are less favorable than on this side.
Ponce, while its harbor facilities are not
the best, is we'll located as an outlet for
the productive sections, and the climate
Of the region is salubrious. AS for the
harbor, this may be made secure by the
erection of a breakwater, a work that
will no doubt be taken up by the govern
ment at an early time. AS an indicator
of what is going on, it may be stated
that there are seven bids before the
council of Ponce for a street railroad
franchise between the city and the port,
a stretch of two and a half miles. The
bid offers $40, 900 outright, with for
FIXTURES at the end of 20 years. The
plans include every form Of motor, and
n provides for a swinging car to run
on a single rail. The postal department
has established stations all over the is
land, and bids for carrying the mails
to various points have been called for.
1t is rumored that some officer high
in the service Of the United States has
purchased a tract of coffee lands which
extend down to the coast, and it is said
that a deal for a large coffee plantation
has recently been closed with an Ameri-

sylvanian went the other day to the
United States to purchase machinery for
an ice plant to be erected at the latter

Great Kitchener, to sing thy praises,
And yet, alack! I ann sing.
Poor dervishes, how didst thou trounce

A theme for every poets tongue;
Yet till I know how to pronounce them,
My song must stay unmade, unsung.
How could I break forth thus, "HurrAh! he
Turns all the Mahdists' plans awry
And routs the hordes of Abdullahf"
When I should say "Abdulla-hi?"
Wouldst thou not utter In thy grief q
Remorseful and expressive "Ah!' .
TO hear me cry, Poor doomed khalifa!'
When thou ,mayst call him "khalifa?"
Thou'dst preach at me a wrathful sermon
Should I sing how thy skillful plan
Has brought thee safely to Omdurman
When really tits to O%mdurman;
And it's an irksome task INT dreary,
More dreary han this sad song tells,
To find how to accent Karerri,
Jebel and various Wad els.
Hence, though no strain could we'll be
sweeter
Than mine will be when mine Is made.
The all exacting laws of meter,
And also rhyme, must be obeyed;
But cease thy bitter lamentation,
I'll sing a song that's worthy thee

company who appear at the opera

one of his most miraculous tests of

be called) to our people ON the
street at noon.
A committee consisting of
Clint Graham, Mayor Gait, D. G.
Kendall, DR.. Manhart, Stanley
Bruce and Sidney Suggs We're Sc
lected to witness the test which was
in this manner: A letter was writ
ten by one of the committee to an
other member and enclosed in a
sealed envelope without any ad-
dress, this was again enclosed and
sealed in another blank envelope,
brought to the ARDMOREITE office
and locked in drawer in the safe,
the key was then taken and hidden
under a rock somewhere on the
street. The committee then went
and got their subject who was
firmly blindfolded. In this condi:
ton he kept the committee on a
run up the street and after a short
time found the key, which he
brought, almost directly to this
Office, in a few minutes he located
the safe, fitted the key to the draw
der, took out the letter, told the
denomination of the bills in the
cash drawer, went out on the
street, and, still blindfolded, in a
crowd of three hundred, laid his
hand on Mayor Gait and handed
him the letter, stating it was fol
him.
The test created much curiosity
and at its perfect fulfilment, Mr.
Haynes was looked upon with sup
erstition by some, by others as 6
