To the Public.

I am still in the livery and feed business. It is my means of mak- ing living, but it appears there is an effort being made to drive me out of the business by requir. ing the travelling public to take their teams 10 the hotel barns. Now, I do not wish to go into the hotel business, but l find it neces- sary and will hereafter keep 8 first class eating house, at which the public will find clean rooms, nice beds and plenty to eat at the most reasonable figures. Live and let live is my motto.
 Respectfully,
 T. c. WALKER.

 Garland Mckinley, one of Roosevelt's Rough Riders, was a passenger on Tuesdays mail hack en route to Harrison on visit to his parents. During his short stay here he was greeted by nu. merous friends, who, though many of them had never seen him. had learned to love him from the many interesting letters he had written back from Santiago, describing the three days fight on July 1,2 and 3. While many of his brave com- rades fell by his side, Garland escaped unhurt, though many shots passed through his clothing. He has no words of praise too high for Col. Roosevelt and thinks him the purest man he ever saw, who stayed right in the line of fire and much of the time in the lead. Garland is yet in his teens but has covered himself in glory and link ed his name with the history of our country. He says he sympa- thizes with the other just as brave and noble boys whose opportuni- ty did not permit them to- go to the front. MT. Mckinney was discharged last week.

Cuban Correspondence of the New York
Tribune.
The fellows in the trees seldom fired at
soldiers who were close to them. To do
so would have made their detection easier,
SO they shrewdly chose spots from 200 to
800 yards from the main road Three hun
dred yards was the favorite distance, but
they were Indifferent marksmen. Another
proof Of their cunning was that as often
as possible they shot when volley firing
was going on. Thus the report of their
weapons could not easily be singled out
from the others. Some. however, were
three or four miles behind the American
firing line, and they could not employ this
device. Some fastened leaves and bark to
their clothing for better concealment. A
few were captured in American uniforms,
stripped, no doubt from the dead.
Surgeons and litter-bearers, passing as
they did constantly between the front and
the dressing stations in the rear, were re-
peatedly fired on from trees. Many more
would have been wounded than were but
for poor craftsmanship. one man con-
nected with the surgical department Of the
army was shot at several times while pass
ing a particularly spot near the bloody
bend" at the ford OF the San Juan river.
Finally he got tired. Taking the Red Cross
from his arm as a sign OF temporary resis-
nation from that branch of the service he
borrowed a Kraig-Jorgensen from sol
der as sign of enlistment as a private.
Then he dived into the underbrush near
where the bullets had crossed the road.
The ex-Red Cross man made his way
carefully along the ground. He knew that
discovery might mean unpleasant conse-
Qucnces for him; so he exercised every
precaution Finally his gaze was arrested
by a movement in the branch of a tree.
His experience had taught him that the
breeze always stirs the outer leaves of a
tree first. The inner twigs moved later
Yet here was a shaking of a branch near
the trunk. white the outer leaves were
quiet. Close watch showed too that the
branch instead of swaying from side 10
side, moved up and stayed here Then
it was clear just what was going on.
The Krag-Jorgensen was aimed in care
full fashion. lis report was followed by
the crash of heavy body through the tree
and 60 the ground. There was no call for
the marksman to attend 10 auy profession

A CHATTER OF HUMMING BIRDS.
With Description of 81 New Hummer
Found in California.

"Wendelr' in the New York Observer.
During the month of April, bird-lovers
in Santa Barbara, and, L suppose in the
adjoining counties, had a rare ornitholog
ical sensation. They welcomed a humming
bird, in great numbers, totally different
from any that they had ever seen. 1t does
not correspond, in its general appearance,
with the description given of any one of
the 10 species mentioned in Dr. Coues's
Key 1884 Later editions have added sew
eral TO this number and among these prob
ably is our newcomer.
All its coloriug is of the lighter hues, such
as white, yellow and light brown, except
lis intensely crimson throat, and even this
changes with the light. This absence of
green diffcrentiates il from all the hum
mers well known In this region, and the
only one we know in the East Not having

positively as TO the total ebsence Of green

examination and in other lights. After
writing this. l received from friend in

by no means getting the worst of it, Early
last week $500 was turned over to its treas
uror, and on succeeding days $3.50 more
was secured. The sum may serve to show
the present enormIty of Mrs. Schencks
mail Granting that every letter contain
ed the dime asked for, it would require
14,0c0 letters to make up the sum. But it
is estimated that only about one letter
in five contains money. Therefore, carry
ing out the computation, the present con-
tribution to the ice fund is made up OF the
gleanngs of a little correspondence OF TO-
coo letters. To convey these letters 10 Ba-
bylon the government has received the
sum of $1,400 in postage stamps.
These brief computations were made last
Wednesday, when ehe mail, which poured
into the Morgan home at Babylon, l.. l.,
was still small enough to be within the
grasp of human conception. 1t IS OBVIOUS
that the figures given are mere paga-
tele when compared with What VIII De
received during the coming week, unless
the strenuous efforts being put forward
20 break the chain succeed. Miss Schenck
has advertised in The Eastern papers, ask
ing her patriotic correspondents to deslst
in the name of peace and harmony. II
they fail to do so the combined daily man
of Chicago New York, Boston and Phlla-
delphia WAL be less than the train loads of
missives which will pour into Mr.. Nor
gans summer home. Indeed the sltua-
ton may become so grave that the gov
ernment will be forced to intervene TO
check the ceaseless flood.
A few moments practical test with hg-
ures will quickly show the awful posi-
bilit:es which may lie n store for MISS
Schenck Suppose an attempt was made
10 calculate the amount of money that
would be collected by the series, if the
chain was allowed to run its course. by
the time the calculation reaches the twen-
ty-ffth series the figures grow appalling.
Counting alone the letters numbered
twenty-five, at 10 cents each, the sum OF
SIP 671. .532 3SS. .966 40 would be received, pro-
vid.ng the chain was not broken. Sup
posing again. the earths population 70
be 4O00,0C0OO0 people, each person would
receive about 600 letters numbered
"25." and would be compelled to write
.,0000 0OO each, labeled "26,' With the money
derived from thea sent back 70 Mss
Schenck, the originator Of the scheme,
reckoning current prices of ice without
discount. our valiant soldier boys in Cuba
would find themselves in possession of a
solid glacier ninety-tive miles long, nine
teen miles wide and two miles deep.
The foregoing deduction will be sufficient
to illustrate the endless possibilities which
await Miss Schenck With the chain only
one-fourth run out, the results are ridicu-
lous Continuing through the chain in
geometrical progression, natural conditions
quietly enter 10 interrupt continued com
putation With the figures representing the
seventy-ffth chain it is doubtful If a SIN
gle sheet of paper could be found large
enough to hold the results, and to obtain
those results would require the forfeit of
valuable years of a mans life.
