Key West, May T.-Naval men saw that
Commodore Schley Is probably lying off
Santiago de Cuba harbor with the Snan-
ish fleet imprisoned inside 1t is known
that the Spanish fleet has war supplies for
Havana and that that city Is its objective
point. Every movement of Admiral Ger
vera has shown this.
While It would be improper to anal,ze
this composition Of the fleets. it may h.
said that Commodore Schley's squadron is
still a fast moving one and Is believed n
be speedy enough to overtake the Snan-
lards in a race in view of the present con
dltion Of their fotilla, and that the Amey,-
can scouting boats patrol the seas and
would never permit the Spaniards 10 get
out Of sight again.
Imprisonment Of SPANS fleet would
practically end SPANS naval efforts. and
most Of the American vessels could be de-
tailed for operations against the land de-
feuses. The blockade of Havana has not
been weakened by reason Of rnassinsy so
many vessels into two ereat fleets. Indeed
these fleets are so stauoud that thy are

A curious feature of pagan and semi

In the Mohammedan countries, such as
the Balkan States and Turkey women
are not allowed TO see any men excepting

even when sick cannot be seen by native

the United States. The new Balkan
States which no longer staggar beneath
the weight of Turkish misrula are ad-

since Patd S2OO,OOO or More.
From CasseTs Magazine
The now familiar trolley wheel and its
pole in electric railway practice were not
always teld at their high value OF to-day.
William j. Clark, the head of the railway
department of the General Electric Com
pany OF New York, in speaking recently,
in a reminiscent mood, told of his strug-
giles about ten years ago to sell tie patent
covering the devices in question.
Mr.. Clark was then acting a., agent for
Mr. Van Depoele. the inventor of the un
derrunning trolley, as it is called He of
fered IL to one group of American capital
lists after another at the upset price OF
100000. without the slightest success, all
though he was prepared TO dispose out
right OF the patent for that sum-
Finally an offer of s. for each car fitted
with the undermining trolley was made
to him and accepted. Mr.. Clark continued
that lie was happy TO say that from this
contract he had since paid over to the Van
Depoele heirs the sum OF 500 600.
In h,s opinion, the three inventions
which had brought about the immense de-
velopment of electric urban and suburban
railways were the Sprague patent for mo-
tor suspension, the Van Depoele under
running trolley, aud the substitution of
carbon for copper brushes on the motor
cOmmutator.
Mr. Sprague. who installed the first
practical trolley line at Richmond, Va
where some Of the grades are as steep as
per cent, found that with thirty cars
In service it cost 80 a day to replace the
copper brushes which had vanished into
sparks.

The Information given by the refugees

sixteen gun boats of the enemy in the
harbor aud many thousands Of Spanish

A clear view of the harbOr is not obtain

possible that the Spanish fleet is far

The squadron now lying here consists of

Schley and information as to those

AS yet the origin of pearls is a matter
Of mere speculation, says Lippincotts. The
old theory that they were CONCEALED dew
drops pierced by sunbeams" was support
ed by naturalist as late as 1913, and is
evidenced by a Venetian medal, bearing
an open oyster SHE'LL receiving drops of
rain, with the motto by the divine
dew" Later conchologists, however, con-
tend that the pearl nucleus may be some
minute particle, as a grain OF sand or the
frustule of a diatom or tiny parasite. or
perhaps one of the ova of the pearl oyster
itself The particle or foreign body is grad
ually surrounded by thin layers of inacre
until It is completely encysted and the
pearl formed The consecutive layers may
vary in brightness and color and a defect
may be caused by contact with another
foreign substance, thus changing the value
with each new layer, and sometimes caus-
ing a lively kernel or seed to be in
closed in an apparently poor pearl.

THE OLIVE INDUSTRY.

Among the other new industries of
ARIZONA that are fast coming to the
front is that of olive production.
Already several cars of this fruit
have been shipped from Phoenix and
several more are to follow in a few
days. These olives are grown near
Phoenix and prepared for the eastern
markets, where they find a very
ready market at good figures.
This industry is one that takes
considerable capital to start, as the
trees are not considered profita BILE
under about six years, but when
they have once reached that age the
crop is one of the most certain and
profitable. Then too, the trees are
long lived and continue to be more
profitable each year, which is a great
advantage over other fruits the trees
of which are short lived.
Quite a large amount of these trees
are just coming into bearing this
year in the Salt River Valley and this
industry is destined to cut no small
figure there in the future:-jcurnal

MADE A NEW TOWN.

A meeting was held last Saturday
al the home of o. P. BondesSon, ten
miles from Yuma. in the Lower Colo
RADIO valley. for the purpose of select
ing place and name fer the site Of a
rev town to be established in that vi
cinity, which has recently become
quite thickly inhabitated.
The attendance was all that could
have been desired or expected, about
forty being present, and the interest
was intense. A number of Yumaftes
went down in private conveyances,
and were highly entertained by the
proceedings.
A site about eleven miles from Yuma
on the Algodones Land Grant, was
chosen, and the place named Somer-
ton. 1t is a slightly location. and may
develop into prosperous village In a
very short time, if the present rapid
influx of newcomers to that section
continues. There were three or four
new arrivals last week.
A petition for the esta blishment of a
poStoffice has been circulated and for
warded to the proper authorities; also

of a rcNrtion of the valley as q new

From almost every foreign country,
comes an increased demand for Ameri-
can goods-we are actually selling
silks in France. The following report
from the United States consul at Ath-
ems, Greece, which has Just reached
the Department of State, speaks for it
self: There cannot be the least
doubt of the necessity of a direct line
of steamships between the United
,5faIes and Mediterranean ports.
There is a wide field and large profits
for a well-managed line, and it should
be an American one, flying the Stars
and Stripes, if possible. Many of the
stores of Athens-all those that keep
imported articles American
goods fOrsal e as English goods, they
having been imported from England.
Nearly every mail brings letters of in
Quiry to this consulate from merchants
and manufacturers of the United
States, all anxious to find a marker
here for their products; for it is be-
coming generally known that Greece
imports nearly all kinds of goods and
machinery. The English, German and
French transportation companies that
call here want a chance to get imports
directly from America, and thus save
the profits of the middlemen"
