Budapest. May 12.-Ccunt Golu-
chowski. the Austro- Hungarian foreign
minister, addressing the budget COM
mittee of the delegations today, re-
ferred to the Hispano-American war
and observed that neither the inter-
vention OF the pope nor the greatest
complaisance on the part of Spain" had
been able to avoid conflict. He ex-
pressed his regret that the queen
regent, a sovereign endowed with the
rarest qualities as a ruler, and her
people had not been spared so severe
a trial and he hoped that peace on the
most favorable terms that could be ar
ranged might be concluded at as early
a date as possible.

PROTECTING SAN FRANCISCO.
Three Hundred Mines and Torpedoes
Secretly Planted.

San Francisco, May 12.-The Evening
Bulletin says: Almost without the
knowledge of people around and about
San Francisco, for two weeks past the
harbor and it's approaches have been
set with torpedoes and mines The work
is not entirely completed. but is nearly
so. For Il days the government tug
boat Unadilla has been placing the sub
marine destroyers. Over 300 torpedoes
are said to have been placed in posi-
ton.
The Unadilla did the work mostly at
night. Her lights were dimmed and
every precaution taken to prevent spies
from locating the defenses. Last night
the work, so far as the Unadi.la is con-
cerned, was finished. The harbor is
now not only defended by heavy bat
teries. but by complete fields of torpe-
does, the location of which are kept
secret.

a soBERING EFFECT.
Folly of Sending Toy Boats Against
Strong Forts.

Washington, May 12.-The setback
received by the American blockading
squadron in the engagement in Carde--
mas harbor yesterday, and the loss OF
five lives on board the torpedo boat
Winslow, had a SOLDERING effect in the
element in the navy which is crying
out for rapid action and efforts at de-
stroying batteries with unarmored
ships. There probably will be some
sort of inquiry instituted to ascertain
the responsibility for sending such un-
protected shells as the Winslow against
fortified ports. 1t is miraculous in the
opinion of older officers at the depart
ment that the damage and loss of life
were confined to the Winslow, for the
other boats with her were very little
better off in the matter of protection,
and scarcely any of them could resist
the fire of a small rife. 1t is likely
that if such work as was attempted at
Cardenas is TO be done hereafter, the
task will be assigned to more formid-
able craft

Heating the water and getting ready
generally takes a, good deal of time.
When this is done the work of killing
and dressing requires comparatively
little. 1t is far better for farmers to
cooperate in this work than in any
other we know. Each farmer who has
only few hogs to kill can have this

pose of retaining n moist air about the
plant Wardian cases or ferneries are
often used with good success, or a

also, that ferns with the exception of
the hardy upland sorts) grow in moist,
shaded places. 1t is therefore essen
tial that they be kept in partial shade.
1t is not wise, however, to soak the
plants daily, whether needed or not.
When new fronds are unfnrling, avoid
placing the plant in a position where
it will be exposed to the full power of
the sunlight, as it will sometimes burn
or blast the tender young fronds. -
