Mr. r. b. Savage. the musical director
of the Ladies' Treble Clef club and Houston
Glee club of this city, went to Galveston
Friday 10 hear Mrs. Marshall Pease sing
at recital given by the Galveston Quar-
tette society. He says that Mrs. Pease
possesses a large, rich contralto voice OF
the most unusual range. Her low notes
have the rarely formed quality that has
made fortunes for few famous singers.
They are powerful, vibrant and mellow
and astonishingly large. Her voice is also
capable of most powerful ami dramatic
h,gl notes He says that Houstonians will
have a treat in hearing Mrs. Pease sing
at the Treble Clef and Glee club musicale
at Turner Hall Thursday evening.

Ceylon is to keep in the forefront,
and not to get into the same lament
able position as the West Indian
islands named.
We have just been recording an
American opinion in regard to the
better quality in appearance and
liquor of Java pekoeS; and although,
OF course, we maintain that our
island can match anything going in
the way OF teas, still a rival in the
race may creep upon us, and our
place may become second by-and-
bye. Certainly the Dutch planters,
with their experimental gardens and
scientific experts, have decided ad-
vantage over the Ceylon tea grower,
who has to find out pretty much for
himself, and often cannot find out
simply from want of scientific train
ing. In every branch of tropical
agriculture there is always cropping
up some surprises. To have at hand
a reliable department willing and
able to investigate any agricultural
question would be the natural state
of things in colony whose whole
property is bound up with the land;
but we have got so used to do with
out it, and to wait until untoward
events have become serious, instead
of stamping them out to begin with,
that this haphazard way is not only
tolerated but regarded as the path
way of true wisdom. How far it is,
however, from holding any such ad-
vanced position, let the present les
son from Java and the West Indies
Illustrate, and let it so come home
our rulers that it may be as a word
to the wiSe-to be acted on before il
is too late Tropical Agriculturist,

Barre evening telegram. (Barre, Vt.) 1898-19??, 1898-07-11
Refuses to Accept.

Skaters headquarters, Sunday.-At
11.30 this morning Shafter notified Gen.
Toral the Spanish commander that by
President McKinley's direction the
Spanish proposition of surrender if the
garrison were allowed to leave with
their side arms was rejected and the
United States government would accept
no terms whatever 9th er than the un-
conditional surrender of the city and
troops within.
Gen. Toral replied at 2:45 with a
brief note in which he rejected McKin-
ley's proposal.
He would discuss no other terms than
his own.
At3:15 Shafter notified Toral that the
Armistice would be terminated at four
o'clock.
Eight batteries of light artillery will
be in position at midnight and the seige
guns have just been landed. They will
arrive here Monday.
Shafter says that our lines cannot be
made any more effective than they are
now, and that he would not be surprised
if he had Santiago captured inside OF
three days.
M doubt is felt here but that the
downfall of Santiago is certain to come
soon, but the Spaniards have the advan-
tage in one respect, that being that they
can probably make good their escape at
the western entrance to the town.
The battle will be bloody one and
MANY oood soldiers will be laid in the
grave and many American homes DC
made dcsolate before the end is accom-
plished.
Barre evening telegram. (Barre, Vt.) 1898-19??, 1898-07-11
Battle Notes.

WASHINGTON, July 11.-A cable from
Shafter states that the bombardment
really begins today in earnest
The firing yesterday was only pre-
liminary artillery skirmish and nothing
was accomplished.
The enemy opened fire few minutes
past four with light guns which were
soon silenced by ours.
Very little musketry firing was heard
and the enemy kept entirely within
their entrenchments.
Three men were slightly wounded.
More forces are utilized today and it
is thought they will be able to keep the
enemy from making their escape should
they desire to do so.
Upon today's battle is thought to de-
pend largely the length of continuation
Of the war. If our troops should cap
ture the fort, make prisoners the Span
iards inside and take possession of the
arms and supplies it would doubtless
give Spain blow from which she
would be unable to recover.
On the other hand should the Span
iards quietly pick up their possessions
and steal away to the hills in the real
of Sont;a q ro in similar nannar tn that
in which Pando entered the city, it il
probable that months or even years may
elapse before the foe will acknowledge
their defeat.
The general opinion amongst mill
tary men is that Shafter is not provided
with sufficient number of troops to ef
feet the capture Of the Spanish soldiers
inside the fort at Santiago, still it is pos
sble that he will be able to do SO.

TO CIRCULATE PETITION.
RESIDENTS WILL AGREE TO PARTIALLY
FURNISH A NEW HOTEL.

1t seems to be sure thing now that
Barre will have first-class hotel. A
few daysago it was noted that f. j.
Gale of the City Hotel was negotiating
with ID. M. Miles in regard to leasing
the upper part of his new block. Mr..
Gale has written large furniture houses
to obtain an estimate of the cost of fur
nishing q new hotel. As soon as he re-
ceives a reply he will give his decision
to Mr.. Miles.
Mayor Gordon got out petition this
morning which will be circulated among
tie business men of the city for the pur-
pose of getting subscriptions to help
furnish first-class hotel. The money
subscribed will be placed in the hands
of John Trow, George j. Towne and
N. d. Phelps. No person has yet done
any soliciting but someone will begin
tomorrow if the right person can be
found.
Mr.. Towne told reporter this after.
noon that he would head the list with
1925 and doubtless other citizens vii
follow with the same generous spirit
The money will be used at the descre
ton of the above three gentlemen
When Mr.. Gale was seen by reporter
this afternoon he was not aware OF thu
fact that petition hab been made out
When asked if he would 60 ahead will
the matter now the business men hav'
manifested so much interest, he replied
that he would surely make deal witt
Mr.. Miles in the near future.
