The races at the State Fair are under
the best management. Mr. Carter, so
well known to our race courses all over
the South, is the official starter. There
is a variety in the races. Formerly
there was merely trotting. Now the
running horse and the PAGER are also
in favor The track is the best in the
State and Raleigh is the only point ia
North Carolina where there is racing
every year. In fact it has come to be
training place for horses. 1t is on the
grand southwestern race circuit, a thing
to be remembered by lovers of racing.

A few years ago poultry was shown
out of doors, and 30 or 70 coops were
considered quite an exhibit. Now hum
dreds of fowle are shown and this par
ticular display fills large wing of the
main building. The exhibit is varied
and embraces turkeys, geese, ducks,
chickens of three score or more breeds.
pigeons etc. 1t has come to be one of
the most pleasing exhibits of the Fair.
Almost adjoining it is the State poultry
farm. which is well worth study by the
poultry fancier. North Cardinals poul-
try and egg trade are great. but if they
were ten times greater would not satisfy
the immense and steadily growing de-
mand SO there is special need of study
of fowls. to ascertain the best egg pro-
ducers and also which fowls are best
for market. All these things can be
ascertained in practical way at the
State Fair.

THE CUBAN CAPITAL.
Belief That It Will Be Established at or
Near NIatanZas.

Belief That II Will Be Established at or
Near Matanzas.
In high Cuban quarters the opinion
prevails that President Masso Of the Gu
ban republic and his cabinet will soon
remove from Sancti Spiritus, where
they are thought to be at present, to the
neighborhood of Matanzas, with view
to establishing the seat Of the Cuban
civil government at or near MatanZas.
1t is said, however, that this will de-
pend much upon the instructions car
ried by Lieutenant Rowan, U. S. A., to
the Cuban commanders, and the nature
Of these instructions is not disclosed.
1t is intimated, however, that one of
the first results is likely to be the trans
fer of President Masso and his entire
cabinet to the Cuban coast and the set
ting up there of complete civil or
ganization. One of the advantages Of
this move, from the Cuban standpoint,
is that it will give the Cuban civil gov
eminent most distinct identity and
will advance the recognition Of its in
dependence. This independence con-
tinues to be sincerely hoped for at an
early day by the Cuban authorities in
Washington, and they are anxious to
assume more official status with the
authorities here than they occupy at
present. Washington Star

Dartmouth College Volunteers Start For
Concord Amid the Cheers of Friends.
The recent demonstration attending
the departure of the Dartmouth volun-
teers in Company e, Third regiment,
N. H. N. g., was a most enthusiastic
climax of the war interest in Hanover,
N. H., and most imposing and i'm
pressive event. College exercises were
dispensed with, and the whole college
did escort duty to the railroad station,
with line of 500 students, headed by
the Dartmouth military band, followed
by the two Dartmouth military COM
panies, then by the students by classes
and lastly the student volunteers. The
members of the faculty and their fam
lilies and large number of townspeople
also attended.
All public schools were closed. All
along the line of march cheers were
given and flags were waved. At the
station 700 persons shook hands with
the departing students and gave them a
final cheer. Each volunteer was pre-
sented with pocket Bible by the Rev.

HERO or MANILA BAY.
Commodore Dewey Is One of the Strict
est Naval Disciplinarians.

est Nasdi
Altogether Commodore Dewey has
seen almost 16 years of service at sea,
while he has done duty or shore 80 =
years. He is one of the strictest dis
ciplinarians in the navy, and for that
reason not overpopular with under
with him do not hesitate to say that he
is born strategist, fighter and clear
headed and skillful commanding officer.
He is firm believer in the truth of the
old maxim Nothing venture, nothing
have,' and has always been ranked
among the most daring of American
naval officers. But with his readiness
to take chances there has always been
exhibited the saving qualities Of good
Judgment and horse sense. No better
man could have been found to under
take the task of annihilating the Span
ish Asiatio squadron in its stronghold.
Socially Commodore Dewey is much
liked. He is one of the finest looking
men in the navy, which is saying a
great deal, and has sometimes been
known as "Gentleman George" the
same sobriquet which was long applied
to the late George H. Pendleton of
Ohio. He is great clubman and a
huntsman of no mean repute. In riding
to the hounds he has often distinguish
ed himself, while as daring horseman
he probably has no superior in this
country. He is also an all round athlete.
All in all, Commodore Dewey is of the
stuff that heroes are made of, and it
may interest some of the fair readers of
The Herald to know that he is wild

MOTHERS LONG JOURNEY.
Mrs. Hinkle Travelled Many Hundred Miles

Mrs. Hinkle Travelled Many Hundred Miles
to Bid Her Son Goodby.
A pathetic scene was witnessed at
Port Tampa the other morning when
poor, loving old mother came all the
way from Indiana to bid goodby to her
son, who is member of battery of
the Second artillery. Her name is Mrs.
L. D. Hinkle, and her sons name is
Osman. He is tall, fine looking young
fellow of % years. who enlisted one
year ago at Fort Sheridan.
When Mrs. Hinkle got off the train
at the artillery camp. she was kindly
directed to her sons quarters by Major
Randolph. When they reached her son 8
side, she threw herself into his arms
and wept bitterly. She offered Captain
Capron of the battery 81, 900 if he would
procure her sons discharge from the
army. The poor woman had only few
dollars III her purse. She told Captain
Capron that she would have come ten
times the distance to say goodby to her
son. She will remain at Port Tampa

F. M. Saro, born of Russian parents

Ills, recuperating after having been
imprisoned in Cabanas fortress for six
months. He claims to have been thrown

the Ten Years. war. He frequently visit
ed the Maine and says that it is known
in Havana that it was Spanish plot to
blow up the warship and that the wires
from the mine were traced to the key
board in Moro Castle. Saro asserts that
there are now SO, 900 insurgents in Cuba
fit for active warfare and that there
are guns for force of 70, 900, but that
there is no ammunition.
He claims that the coast Notifications
and defenses are weak and that the
American fleet will have no trouble in
dismantling Moro Castle and other har-
Dor Notifications, but he would advise
the warships to stay out of the mined
harbors. There is danger there. Saro
believes that the American force will
land easily at Matanzas and that when
they get on Cuban soil with the trained
regulars and the feldpieces the Span
iards will scatter like scared sheep

OFFER FROM A PORTUGUESE
One of the Azores rendered to America
For Coaling Station.

One of the Azores rendered to America
For Coaling Station.
The friendliness of the Portuguese to
the United States is attested by the offer
of one of the islands forming the Azores
group for use as coaling station. The
offer was made recently by prominent
man of Portugal, resident in the Azores,
through a Boston commission firm
which has extensive commercial inter-
ests in the islands. Secretary Long, in
acknowledging the receipt of the offer,
states that diplomatic negotiations are
necessary before country can take steps
toward acquiring coaling station in
another oountry's territory. He does
not say that such negotiations are under
way or contemplated.
AS it now seems probable that a great
battle will be fought in the mid-Atlan-
tic, there is a chance to test the friendli-
ness of the islanders still further, for
should one of our ships become dis
abled while thus far out from port she
would have to make port in the Azores
to repair the damages and take on coal
and water sufficient to enable her to
make home port-a privilege existing
under the neutrality laws. If the Azores
belonged to either the United States or
Spain, they would be Of the greatest
value at the present time. They have
been haven for the craft Of all nations
when in trouble for the last four cen.
turtles, and numerous vessels of war
and pirates, too-have in bygone days
taken food and water from their green
slopes. Chicago Record.
