A SHORT CHAPTER ON HOPS.
j. ID. ILER BUYS THREE CARLOADS
OF THE BEST IN THE WORLD.
Crop Last Year Was Uneven and De-
mand for the Finest Hops Is Very
Great-Refused Big Advance
for His Purchase.

People who drink beer and want the
best brand will take especial interest in
tha announcement that Colonel J. ID. Her,
of the Rochester brewery, received last
week three carloads of the finest hops at
be found anywhere and will use them in
preparing the splendid Original Rochester
beer for the people of Kansas City and the
West. Two ears of the hops were from
New York. They Were the finest 10 be
found in the market of that great mop
producing state. and were subjected TO the
mos rigid inspection before they were Sc
leCted. They were of such eXcepuohal
quality that Mr.. Her had repeated offers
Tor them at price very much IN ADVANCE
of what he paid. He declined all offers, as
he has established Il business here that
needs the best material to be found lor
the production of the popular hrahuS ne
makes. The hops of the whole country
this year were uneven and varied greatly
in quality. IL requires the closest lnSpec-
ton TO get the good ones and escape the
poo- ones. Mr.. Her is an expert judge OF
hops. and the shipment received from New
York were the top of the market ana as
fine any domestic hops that were ever
shipped West. The other carload was OF
imported hops from Bohemia. and were
also the tip-top production of that wonder
full hop country.
the Rochester Brewery here. has held
strictly TO one principle-to use only the
best material and make only the best beer.
The tremendous popularity of his brands
and the general praise of his goods are
the verdict and attest the wisdom of his
course and the correctness of his Judgment.
With the increase of business in the West
has come very decided increase in the
demand for beer. and Mr.. Her holds that
his Original Rochester. which has been the
favorite for so long. will still be found
worthy the same confidence it has won in
the past. His purchases of the very finest
hops TO be found in the East and his con-
tinred heavy purchases of the imported
hops have attracted the attention of brew
ers all over the country. The quality of nc
article is too high for his use. and he says
his business shows that such course is
proper, and the people of the West know
good goods Just as well as anywhere else
and are anxious to purchase them.

This was the answer Consul Walter
3. Barker, at Sagua la Graude, in Gu
ba, pointing to the American flag float
ing over the consulate, made TO the
warning delivered to him few days
ago. A Spaniard, to whom the consul
had shown some personal favor, came
to tell the American his life was in
danger. He told Of plot that had
been formed by the Spanish Volunteers
to mob the consulate. This consul was
in the Confederate army the full period
of the war. He was at Bull Run and
At Appomsttox. He stood four years
with his, sword drawn against the stars
and stripes. But when the day came
that foreign hands were about to he
raised against the flag, this Americans
first thought was to defend it with his
life.
An American begins TO realize what
the flag is to him when he sees it in a
foreign land. The realization deepens

spondents drew from an inside pocket
and unfolded, with u manner of min
gled pride and reverence, a small
American flag OF silk. To the three
Americans the red, white and blue had
never before seemed so brilliant as they
did at that moment.
But intensity OF devotion to the flag
seems to reach the superlative when
the ex-Confederate faces the opportu-
nifty to show his reborn loyalty. It
finds expression of which another
American would not think. In Il cor
ner at the consulate of Sagua la
Grande there stood for three years a
ready rife. 1t was put there to defend
the honor Of the United States and the
life OF the consul in any emergency of
Spanish lawlessness. When Consul
General Lees warning message was re.
ceived, bidding all consuls to leave the
island, the disposition of two articles
became u question with the consul.
What should be done with the rife: To
whom should be intrusted the flag and
its honor! The consul did not ponder
long. He wrapped the rife in the stars
and stripes. He sent the package by a
trusty Cuban straight to Gen. Maxine
