The steam ship Milwaukee ran on
the rocks near the mouth of the Tyne
in September last while on voyage
from South Shields to New Orleans.
The after part of the vessel was afoat
in deep water, and it seemed an easy
job to haul her off, but it was found
that her bottom had been pierced for
ward of the bridge, and that for q
length of thirty feet the rock pene-
trated eight feet into the hold. 1t be-
ing impossible to float the vessel
whole, the forward part was slowly
blasted off with dynamite. The bulk
head forward of the coal bunkers was
strengthened, and after a months
work the aft two-thirds of the MiJwau-
kee, containing the engines, was foated
and towed into port. A new fore part

j. Adam Bede told a story during
his lecture a week ago Monday night
that was not published with our regu-
lar report of his speech for some
reason. It was so good that it will
bear reproduction in these columns.
He was explaining the fact that the
opposition to the Republican forces
had no commencement, and his story
was one relating to the school room.
The teacher held up an egg and asked
q class of her little tots where the egg
came from. All hands went up and
the reply was from the chicken. "Cor-
rect" replied the teacher, "now where
does the chicken come from?" All
hands went up again, and the reply
was from the egg. A descendent of
an Irish father was among the pupils,
and as the teacher remarked that the
egg came from the chicken and the
chicken from the egg, the little fellow
raised his hand, and said: "Say<
teacher, where does the game COM
anyway"

AN AMERICAN ADMIRAL.

Despite the fact that President
Mckinley is bound to carry out the
wishes of the American people regard
ing American expansion and that Ad-
miral Dewey states that the American
flag will fly over the Philippines for
ever, our boys of the volunteer army
seem to have grown quite sick over the
prospect of remaining in the Phillip
pines for an indefinite period. They
are all in favor of American ownership
of these Islands, but the war is over,
there is no more chance for fighting
and naturally they don't like the idea
of doing garrison duty in the Phillip
pine archipelago. They say let the
regular army boys do that.
The boys admit that Manila is a
pretty good place to stay, but the
glory and glamour of war are gone and
business interests begin to call. The
latter could be neglected when there
was scrap, but now the prospect of
getting back to the old Job is
having very enticing effect on the
soldiers, and it is no wonder that Gen.
Merritt recently had applications from
many of the influential officers under
him asking for their recall, all of
which Gen. Merritt very promptly re-
fused. The boys will be needed there
until the peace treaties are ratified by
the two governments.
In this connection it might be we'll
to state that the selection of Gen.
Merritt to present the Eastern problem
to our commissioners at Paris was
hardly the proper thing to do. He
was not we'll versed in the same,
notwithstanding the fact that Admiral
Dewey had given him the benefit of
all of his experience and knowledge.
The only man capable of presenting
the Eastern question, with all its
knotty problems, was Admiral Dewey
himself. He towers above all of the
other statesmen connected with the
question, and aside from having shown
himself to be a great commander of
naval forces, be has displayed rare
diplomacy, tact and skill in handling
Manila Bay until after American troops
we're landed at Cavite to assume for
NAL occupation of the Island and COM
mence the siege of Manila. Since
that time, certainly, he has been the
supreme guide of the military opera
tions by land and by sea.
Admiral Dewey is undoubtedly ac-
quainted with great deal more of the
products of the Island than is any
other American citizen. The rich to-

A DIRTY CAMPAIGN.

We believe that history fails to re-
cord a political fight in which there
was so much mud singing on the
part of the opposition to the Republi-
can party as there was during the
campaign just closed.
The opponents of Mr.. Eustis
searched every action of that gentle
man for many years past, twisted
them into all sorts of shapes, making
the grossest falsehoods out of the
least interesting story, placing the

The fact that Mexico has,the requi-
sitions to raise coffee on a compare
tive large scale at very small cost,
is touched up by Senior Romero, who
says that during the year 1896 the
Confederation produced 100000
pounds of this article. In many parts
Of Mexico sugarj can be successfully
produced, in.some parts of the coun-
try the cane lasting from ten to 18
years without requiring replanting.
The cane may be cut for grinding
twice year.
Senior Romero lconfrms the state
ment that Mexican tobacco is Superior
to that raised in the famous valley of
the Abajo, in Pinar del Rio province,
Cuba. India rubber can be produced
in the low parts of the Republic, while.
sisal hemp is produced in large guam
titles. He believes that there are
parts of Mexico where cotton can be
raised as prolifcally as in the south
ern portion of these United States.
Cocoa is raised there, while chicle,
from which chewing gum is produced,
comes from Mexico almost entirely.
The starch plant and the peon, the
latter the Mexican potato, grow there
in abundance.
The Confederation grows ia differ
ent species of arboreal vegetation, in
Guiding some of..the finest products of
the kind that are grown. Cattle,
sheep and horses are raised in abun-
dance. Huge deposits of coal are be-
ing worked, while other minerals Of
various kinds are being removed from
the rich earth of Mexico.
Mexico is a storehouse of historical
information yet to be,gained; of wild
and romantic scenery; of rich ag-
ricultural and mineral resources, and
a. soon as American wealth and Amer
ican push inspires the manana inhabi-
tants of that land into commercial ac-
tivity, or supplants them with a new
race, it will be wonderful land indeed.

stories in print and circulating them
broadcast over the entire State.
Mr.. Lind was attacked only from
what he has said as political speak
er during this campaign, all of which
was proper, as the opposition had a
perfect right to attack Mr.. Eustis for
similar sayings.
If the mud Singing is to increase,
rather than decrease, in coming cam
paigns, it will be wise for legislatures
to pass stringent laws regulating
these political contests 80 that people
will be able to cast their ballots for
the man of their choice without hav-
ing to hold their nostrils while mark
ing their ballots.

bacco products, the sugar industry,
the fruit industry and the forests and
the minerals Of the archipelago, while
not yet totally discovered, are probably
better known to that official than to
any other American. He would have
been superb counselor for the Amer
ican commissioners at Spain, while
Gen. Merritt will only act as messen-
ger, who is carrying q message orally,
and likely to forget the major portion
Of it during his trip from Manila to
Paris, and the wedding trip that fol-
lowed.

Current Comment.

OATs.-The market is quiet but the price
has been forced higher by the advanced
cost to ship from the west.
CHEEsE.-Receipts for export o, 108 boxes.
There has been good fair demand for the
past week and stocks are being steadily re-
duced.
EGGs.-Receipts have been considerably
lighter than last week and considerable
portion Of the arrivals is still going into
storage.
CoRN.-The demand has ruled fair DUR
ing the week, with spot offerings moderate.
The cost to ship has advanced, and spot of
ferings are higher in sympathy.
BUTrER.-Receipts for the week show a
considerable increase. Demand has con-
tinued light and there has been a further
decline in prices, but the market closes
with little steadier tone.
BEANs.-There has been marked inn
provement in the condition Of the bean
market since our last weekly report There
has been an active demand for most all
kinds and general advance in prices.
FLoUR.-The market has been very much
excited during the week, the sharp advance
in the price Of wheat having greatly in
creased the price Of flour. There has been
more buying noted, but it has been largely
from second hands.
LuMBER.-The market on Northern and
Eastern lumber is very much unsettled by
the war. The vessel people are getting
rather nervous and some are asking better
rates. The Call for vessels is 80 slight, how
ever, that there is not much chance OF the
advanced prices being obtained. The trade
here is not buying to any extent, and the
mills down East are disposed to go very
slow in the matter of shipping.
WooL.-Sales for the week, 1867, 900
pounds. The increase in the business OF
the week is wholly the result Of a few trans
| actions of comparatively large size in Aus.
tralian and Cape wool. The latter was
really but continuance of the trade of two
weeks ago, and represents the cleaning up
OF the supply of the wrecked bark Culdoon.
The wool was sold in bond to go to Canada.
In domestic holdings good amount OF
scanned, principally small lots of territory,
| has changed hands.

Whitewashing Stables.

On page eighty-seven, we spoke of
the healthful effect of whitewashing
cow stables, and also advised the use of
small pump, as great saving in labor,
in applying the whitewash. Since the
publication of that item, we have re.
ceived several inquiries, asking where
the pump can be procured, and the
manner Of making the whitewash.
The pump used is what is known as
a spraying pump for throwing spray
ing mixture on fruit trees. The white
wash should be made very thin, and
strained through wire mesh, suitable
for straining milk. A sheet of such
wire mesh fastened on the bottom of a
tin pail, holding ten quarts is about the
right size. When first applied it will
not show white, but the color will ap-
pear as it dries. Two men, one to
pump, and the other to hold the hose,
which is about ten feet long, will, in
this way, whitewash more surface in an
hour than can be done with brush in
ten hours. Besides, the liquid pene-
trates every nook and crevice.-Hoard's
Dairyman.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an intiamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian tube. When this tube is in
famed, you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out, and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever. Nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.

any case of deafness Caused by catarrh)

Worth Remembering,

1t would be worth millions of dollars
to the annual revenue of the dairy
farmers of the United States if the first
paragraph of the article on "The Utili-
cation of By-Products of the Dairy In.
dustry," in another column, could be
worked down in the daily conviction OF
every man who keeps cows.
Take this one sentence: "The keen
competition in our time requires the
strictest economy in manufacturing"
"Our time" means to-day. We must
handle the question by the necessities
of to-day. 1t is fact that thousands
of farmers should be heartily ashamed
of, that while the price of dairy prod.
ucts has gone down, they are going
along making milk just as extensively
as ever. They cannot see the business
principles involved.
They are making no efforts to right
ly improve their cows. Very likely
they will put beefy, Short horn bull
at the head, to produce daughters more
beefy than their mothers, and which
will give less milk than their mothers,
and milk worth less per hundred than
when their mothers were born.
Any man who can see business prin-
ciples clearly would say:
If you are going to be at the expense
of feeding cow costly food; at the ex-
pense of furnishing costly help to milk
her, and raise the fodder for her; at
the expense of furnishing the costly
stable room, so shape things that your
breeding will give you better COW and
not poorer one; one that will make
more milk and butter, not less.
Then again, study this feed question.
Read up on it. Spend little money
and time in looking into it, and get the
experience of other and more success
full men than you are.
1t is nothing but folly of the most ex-
pensive kind to think that other mt n
cannot teach you anything on these
points.
You are in competition with men
who are studying how to manufacture
milk cheaper every year. Wake upl
and see that you are manufacturer
and subject to latter day competition
like other manufacturers.
A dairy farmer is not a simple, old
time producer. He is manufacturer.
The COW is his machine. He puts
feed, that represents labor and CAPT.
tai, into one end of that machine,
and takes out milk at the other. But
he is not through yet. He must manu-
facture that milk, or pay for its being
manufactured into family product.
Everywhere he is manufacturer.
Does he see it? Does he know it? The
"demnition grind" of the times, and
the squeezed pocket-book will tell him
of it pretty soon. He must get down
to the market, for the market will
will never yield to him. He must i'm
prove his COWS 80 as to make the same
amount of milk with less cows. He
must learn the best principles of feed
ing and care of cows, 80 as to get the
most milk from the least expensive
feed. He must study better than he
has been doing how to utilize the skim
milk, the whey, and all the by-products
of the farm. He must study better
methods of crop raising and farm til
lage. He is in sharp competition with
thousands of other farmers. Does he
know itP Can he see it?-Hoard's
Dairyman.

from whiting, chalks, clays, ETC., for a

OF "the nasty practice" of repeating this
