A Shrewd Woman.

A Virginia woman who owns a
little land has gone into the business
of raising sheep. She spent $25,
paying So head for ewes, and then
turned her flock into her pasture land.
She raised what she could care for on
her land, selling the rest as soon as
they were of marketable age. She
gave only about one hour a day to
them, and paid boy fifty cents a
week TO keep the sheep-sheGs clean
and the fodder cut up. She has been
in the business about five years. The
first year she came out $40 ahead on
her experiment. At the end of the
fourth year she had a flock of sixty
ewes, all she could keep with her
pasturagc, and in wool and mutton
she found she had clear yearly in
come of $3.50.

The New State Gu lrd.

Governor Hastings is giving all
the time possible to the considera-
ton of the most practicable scheme
to form a provisional national guard
i'll the absence of the military which
has So long and effectively protected
the interests of the State from dis
turbances of its peace, but was un-
able to give any information as to
the policy that would be pursued in
the establishment Of the proposed
guard. Before l will be ready to
make a substantial move in that
direction" he said, II will likely
have to make trip to Washington
and consult the United States au-
thorities. ," The Governor seemed
thoroughly imbued with the idea
that the State should not remain
long without protection of organized
militiamen, but as the new guard
would doubtless be made subject to
call from the National Govern
ment, if its services were needed
for its defense, nothing will be done
by the Governor in the matter until
he shall have fully interchanged
views with its proper military rep

However, Bushne;rs invention was
tried with greater effect against King
Georges Man-of-War Cerberus. While
his vessel was lying at anchor some
OF the seamen observing lire towing
asiern. and thinking 1t a mere fishing
iiEc commenced vigorously hauling in.
feeling confident that they had nothing
q less dimensions than baby whale
at least, on the hook end. When the
sailors had about fifteen fathoms Of the
hne hauled in they were astonished
to find that it was buoyed up at reg
ular intervals by little bits of sticks.
he necessity of these devices in fish,
ing were not apparent to the English
men but nothing daunted and with a
hee-haw the British tars kept towing
the anticipated whale. Suddenly the
refrain Of the seamen ceased and they
found machine which was much too
heavy for two men to haul up. ut can
not have been a whale" thought they.
though it may lie the very devil him
self as they pulled the peculiar con-
trivance On board. 1t weighed up
wards of five tons, and all hands wero
called to get 1t upon deck. Command
er Symonds who commanded the Ger
berus was little apprehensiye that It
was another trick OF those damned
rebel Yankees" but nevertheless feeling
1t a rich find that was destined to be
sezed on for ages in the British Mu-
seum. he. like brave disciple of Drake
and Cook. ordered the strange nugget
to be examined with a mixture of feel
ing begotten half of fear and half Of
fatal curiosity. The whale instantly
took breath, shooting a volume Of
flame and smoke into the Captains
face, killing three men and throwing
fourth into the water One of the
ships boats was also blown from the
davits. There was CONSERVATION upon
the deck of the Cerberus and for two
days at least the British sailors f1ut-
tered in quite as awful terror as had
the the Philadelphians. Commodore
Symonds at once sat down to solemnly
write a heavy report to the British
Admiralty not to haul in any more
whales filled with that kind of COM
bustible that burns though in the wa
ter"
Captain Symond's report concludes
thus-"The mode these villains must
have taken to have swiftered the ship
was to row off on the stream a con-
siderable distance leaving one of their
INTERVALS on shore and floating the 9TH
Ell end at the distance OF Tie line. From
the quantity we have got aboard, near
ly 10 fathoms, and what the men saved,
which was upwards of 159 fathoms
more, there must have been nearly 900
fathoms in all. They at the length of
this line put the other In the water
and left it for the tide to float down.
AS the ingenuity of these people is sin
gular in their secret modes of mis-
chief, and as l presume this is their
first essay have though it indispensa-
bly, my duty to give you the earliest in
formation of the circumstances to pre-
vent the like fatal accident happening
to any of the advanced ships that may
possibly be swiiteIed in the same man.

Such was the first use and the first
official report ever made upon the tor
pedo in submarine warfare.

Deafness Cannot ha Qnrad

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever ;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in

What is a Battleshlp 2

a battleship is ship designed to
fight in line OF battle, and is distlngu-
ished from cruiser by its heavy
armor plating and slower speed.
Battleships are classified with respect
to their tonnage and the number of
guns they carry, battleships of the
first class being of greatest tonnage
and largest number of guns. The
United States battleships OF the first
class vary in tonnage from 1o22S to
1855. The loss of the Maine left
the navy with but one second class
battleship, the Texas, with a tonnage
of 6,3I5. The Vizcaya, of the Span
ish navy, which recently paid visit
to New York, is an armored cruiser
of 6,89o tons. In the United States
navy there are two armored cruisers,
the New York and the Brooklyn, the
former of 9,Ia5 tons and the latter of
8,S4o tons.

1t should be remembered by those
who are in the habit of shooting any
birds that come within their reach,
that the killing, wounding or trapping
of any blrd of song, cat-blrd, robin,
wood-pecker, blue-bird, yellow-bird or
any other bird not game bird is in,
ditable as criminal offence, and any
person convicted of such an offence
is subject to pay costs of prosecution
and fine of not less than ten nor
more than fifty dollars, and to be inn
prisoned. One-half the fine goes to
the informer. This is an excellent
law and should be rigidly enforced.

The Oldest City I'm the World.

Damascus is probably the oldest city
in the world, and is estimated to be
about 4,2OO years old. 1t is supposed
to have been founded by great grand
son of Noah. and for many centuries
was famous for its manufacture of
jewelry, silks and swords. In the Mid
die Ages Damascus sword was more
highly priced than any other; but the
Damascene method of tempering steel
and the famous swords are no longer
made. In point of age Jerusalem comes
next to Damascus amongst the Oldest
cities in the world, it having been a
Jebusite city in the days of Abraham
1900 years ago. Athens is the oldest
city in Europe, being about 3,453 years
old. Rome is the next Oldest, and after
that comes Marseilles, founded by a
colony of Greeks when Rome was still
small village. London and Paris
have neither of them been in existence
TWO thousand years.

Old Glory Hangs High.

Across the mountain at Reedsvlle,
in Mift1in county, an American flag 27
feet wide and 40 feet long was sus-
pended between two peaks OF the
blue mountains, at an elevation OF
400 feet, by means of wire cable
1900 feet long. The flag was made
by the women of Reedsville, and is
suspended higher IN the air than any
flag in the state. Its raising the other
evening was attended by one Of the
largest demonstrations in the history
of the county.

Another New Trick.

A sharper has put up a new trick
on farmers, and he has been operating
successfully. He claims to be an
agent for the U. S. government au-
thorized to buy horses for the army.
He visits the farmer, buys two OF
three horses, gives a check fer an
amount larger than the purchase
price, gets the difference in cash, and
disappears with the horses. The far
mer presents the check for pavement,
and finds he has been swindled. A
man who will be taken in by trick
so transparent as this scarcely de-
serves better fate.

HAVANA LATER.
These Ideas Are Good and Will Likely
Be Carried Out.

Washington, June THE president.
it is stated, concluded that Porto Rico
and Santiago could be taken with
much less bloodshed and with fewer
troops than Havana That is why
the campaign against the Cuban cap
ital has been for time postponed.
The president calculates that both
Porto Rico and Santiago can be cap
tured without American soldiers be-
ing subjected to so much disease. The
capture Of Santiago, of course, means
either the capture or determination of
Cervera, an important part of the
campaign. The loss of Santiago itself
would not be greatly felt by the Span
iards, as that place is useless as a
base Of operations against Havana
and the main Spanish army. The
fleet, therefore, is the principal object
of the programme. Porto Rico is the
next important factor in the calcula-
ton.
With Porto Rico in American hands,
with Cervera exterminated and San
tiago held by our army, Blanco would
