A RUSH FROM KEY WEST
A Fear That the Town Will Be Sheled
 Causes an Exodus

Key West, April 18.-There is no to the mainland. While time stll of fers it is taken advantage of. The rush today proved this, for it was put into force with increased hurr- and ings last night, the City of Key West and the Mascotte, both loaded beyond tneir limit with passengers and com prising the greater portion of the pop ulation. The most of them will de- bark at Miami and Tampa. Tt add to the situation, water famine is threat ened, the ships having diffiulty in keeping up their supply of fresl water.
 Meanwhile, the vessels of the fleet are busy at the grim work d prepa- ration for conflict. The Nashville and Helena were coaled yesterday but the rest are either at drill or target prac- tice and keeping up the incess;nt grind to scure the highest possible fighting efficiency.
 The only American ship that has gone to Havana since Saturday is the Ward liner Vigilancia She will sail from Havana direct for New York if she is permitted to get out at al. Some are indulging in serious doubts whether she will

The schooner Davis Farlin arrived yester- day from New York with the guns and munitions consigned to Lieutenant c. H. McKinstry of the engineering corps. Four 1O-inch breech loading rifles, two 8-inch breech loading rifles twelve boxes of mechanism and two 12-inch mortars were unlOaded yester- day by this vessel.

AT KEY WEST
Spanish Officials Wish to Be Pointed
 Out of Cuba

Key West, Fla, April 1S.-Targe practice still engages the fleet her. while awaiting congressional actio1 and executive orders. When a gun boat or torpedo boat arrives it is at once painted a slate color for active service. The monitors are shifted a. times, and picket duty becomes an agreeable change for the other vessels
 The vessels are keeping steam up, and the squadron is ready to move at half an hours notice. Naval con- manders were puzzled at the apparent lack of facilities for transporting to Cuba the troops which will be needed to occupy the island and maintain peace, but now that the liners are known to be coming the puzzle has been solved.
 When Lee left Havana the plans o the Spanish authorities contemplated massing between 10000 and 25,OO0 reg ular troops, reinforced by volunteers for the defense of Havana from invad ing forces. They were expected t hold it in the face of a successful bom bardment or blockade by American men-of-war.
 Blanco at that time had no inform:- tion from Madrid that Spain would te satisfied with anything short of stul- born, though hopeless, defense, and the invasion of American troops was fully expected. The Spanish offici;l classes will be disappointed if they ae not put out of Cuba at the bayonets' points. If American troops are ult- mately to be landed delays in starting them increase the resistance they VII have to meet when once landed.

PERSISTENT LITIGATION.
A New Tack in the Biilups-Freeman
 Case

It seems almost impossible to bring some kinds of litigation to final is sue. For instance, the case of B1llups vs. Freeman, in which a rehearing was denied last term, has been reopened by the injunction process. This ac- tion was begun in 1896. Action was begun by B. N. Freeman, J. H. Hos kins, Jr., and c. H. Edwards of the Ar izona Central bank against s. Good man. The petition for the injunction states that at the trial of the case, Billups being one of the defendants S bondsmen, the absence of the defend- ant was procured by the plaintiffs and judgment was taken against him and his bondsmen. The case having been appealed two judgments were issued out of the supreme court on February 26, 1897, long after the death of Good man, the sole defendant in replevin. The petition states that the fact of Goodman's death was fraudulently concealed from the court. .Remittiturs were sent down, execution was ordered upon certain property in this county belonging to the plaintiff Billups, and the property went to sale. Within the six months period of redemption a writ of error coram Nobus was sued out recalling the remittiturs and ex- ecution. This was the matter dis posed of in the recent opinion handed down. The petition for injunction seeks to restrain the sheriff from ex- ecuting deeds under the sale to the property in dispute.

MORE HISTORY OF GALLowAYs.

The Galloway black is not a pure black. The calves when first dropped are usually dark mahogany brown. The undercoat of fine hair otfe nkeeps this tinge which is clearly seen when the coat is being shed. A very deep black is more frequently found among half breeds. The rich brown tinge is a good sign of purity of blood. Many families have more or less white on the udder, and few white patches on the underline as well. Others have few white hairs scattered through the hide, often not noticed, but the trait may run in a family for generations Belted COWS are still met with, but are not now as common as they were in the early years of this century. Then there were whole herds of this belted race which had a good reputation as milkers One herd had marks, white faces and white stripes on the back, like Hereford colors. Dun or light drabs are still met with, and reds are not unknown, but these are becoming more and more rare. Off color is no proof of want of purity of blood.
 Hornless. The same cannot be said of any animal showing the slightest trace of horns or scurs. Galloways are all hornleSs. The universal teSti- mony among old breeders of Galloways is that a pure bred Galloway never had any trace of horns or scurs. That there have been horned cattle bred in Galloway is we'll known for. many years, some farmers in this section bred horned cattle, both beef and dairy breed, and to outsiders this gave rise to the story that part of the Galloway cattle were horned and part boiled but oral testimony handed down for many years, and that of men who lived among the cattle, confirm the state ment that any trace of scurs was al- ways taken as an indication of impure blood. None of the old native breed of the pure Galloway ever had horns Prof Low of Edinburgh, who carefully examined into this matter, says: "Ab sence of horns has been for a long period a distinctive characteristic of the race" So fixed in this character that the produce of 6 pure bred Gal loway bull with any breed of horned COWS should give polled calves No other breed Of cattle will equal the Galloway in this respect
 Galloways are very hardy The outside winter treatment in their na-

purpose of the appointment is to Keep

of missions. The day of the missionary
periodical is gone by. it is said, for
people will no longer read IT. An elo-
