This firm have in the past had their grinding mill. etc. located on High street and their office and store house on Railroad street but their growing business necessitated greater dispatch in the handling of their grain and they, sshort time ago. erected & mill with engine house in connection with their storehouse and their busi- ness Is now under one roof.
 Their plant consists of @ new Lam- bert engine of % horse power using gasoline for fuel and only requiring three minutes to get full power. They have put in grain elevators, conveyors. corn crackers and the regular grinding mill. Ali their grain bins are built with hopper bottoms and things are arranged to the acme of convenience, only requir- ing one handling of grain and that when delivering to customers. Several life- long grain merchants have viewed the plant and pronounce it the best they have seen.
 Tine firm are doing nice business and confidently expect to do much more, and their new advertisement this week tells you what they do and what they sell.

In a private letter from May
Stevens daughter Of the late A
y. Stevens, master mechanic OF
the Southern Pacific), now
nurse at Manila, she states that she
and Miss Muriel Bailey OF San Fran
cisco were the first women to have the
honor of dining with Aguinaldo. she
writes:
Many of the boys in the hospital
here are dying. Even those who re-
cover do not pick up, on account OF the

lives. We were the only American wo-

only women, as it is not customary for
women to sit at table with the men IN
public.
when the time came for the toasts
and speeches, one of the Senators pro-
posed the health of the Senoritas Amer

TO Miss Bailey and myself.

The fare we have down here I swear
Is quite another thing;
And many matters must annoy
But still, when wars alarms
Are over, may I not enjoy

Dowager Empress of Germany.

The Empress of Germany loses no
opportunity of doing little kindnesses''
wherever she goes. A very pretty story
is told of her recent visit to Westphalia
during the maneuvers. In a village
close to the imperial headquarters the
widow of a Captain in the merchant
service occupies a small room. She is
invaded, bedridden, and very old, but
her one great wish was to see the
Empress drive past the carpenters cot
tage where she lies on her little bed.
Some kind soul had suggested to the
Empress chamberlain that 1t would be
a great kindness If the imperial carri-
age would be allowed to drive slowly
when passing the invalid's window. The
request came to the Empress ears, and
in her kindness of heart she left her
carriage. paid a long visit to the sick
room, and left the lonely sufferer In a
state of happiness greater than words
can tell.-Westminster Gazette.

CHARGED WITH LARCENY.
John DAILY Arrested Yesterday Aft

officer Wilson last night arrested
John DAILY. who lives in the alley be-
tween Twelfth and Thirteenth, and
F streets. on charge of petit lar
ceny.
The officer states that the grocery
men in that portion of the city have
had a great many things stolen lately.
On Tuesday Leon Lewis missed bot
tie Of whisky and some glasses of
jelly, and following DAILY, who had left
the store, he found the articles in his
possession and forced him to give
them up. A. search of his house by the
officer revealed a large and most
varied assortment of articles. There
were razors and brushes that had dis
appeared from Fields barber shop, bot
ties of whisky, tools of various sorts,
canned goods, ice tongs, etc. Two
neighboring grocers identified the
canned goods and some other articles.
and DAILY told the officer and Chief
Dwyer some stories that did not ex-
actly tally, about how they came into
his possession. He has always borne
an excellent reputation in the neigh
borhood, where he has lived for a
number of years, and his neighbors
were astonished at his arrest.
