The WIND MILLS
OF HOLLAND
Are known to all the world.

Are known to all the world.
They are both picturesque and
useful, but useful as they are, they
could not compete with Chase &
Sanborn's Coffee Mill. If they were
obliged to depend on wind mills,
many of their customers would be
kept on short allowance, for they
turn out between forty and fifty
thousand pounds of coffee day, a
feat which is quite beyond wind
mill power.
Stop and think what this enor-
nous amount of coffee means, es-
pecially if you remember howfamous-
ly high grade it is.
Every bean is selected and even
the plantations on which it is raised
are famous for the perfection of their
products.
Your grocer will deliver Chase &
Sanborn's Seal Brand Java and
Mocha in one and two-pound tin
cans or any of the other high
grade coffees in parchment lined inn
ported bags - and you can be sure
there is none better.

STILL AFTER LADYsNurH.
JOubert's Force Expects TO Defeat
Gen. whites Army.


Pretoria. Nov. 21.-The following dis
patch has been received from the Boer
headquarters near Ladysmlth:
THE field comets of the Pretoria com
mandry reported that British gun car
riages and some horsemen had been heard
moving last night In Ladysmith. Our OUT
posts observed the British endeavoring to
sortie toward Lombards Sop and Bull
wanna Hin, where our Maxims opened fire.
The range was too great ana therefore
our artillery began Smelling, which drove
the British back. About daybreak the
British batteries fired upon our positions.
Two burghers were wounded.
Ut Is supposed that the object OF the
sorties was to relieve the Estcourt force,
who mad sent mn urgent message 10 Lady
smith requesting aid The burghers cap
tured the messenger, but finally allowed
him to proceed"
1t is reported that tho Natal police have
captured a number of Transvaal dispatch
riders.
In his latest report Gen. Johbert says:
II am cutting off the retreat of the
Estoourt troops to Pietermaritzburg aud
driving them back on the Tugela river"
IL Is also reported that the Beer COM
mander with the forces near Ladysmith.
has 'comprehensively surveyed the differ
ent points from which the fall of Lady
smith can be insured.

GEN. YoUNG's MOVEMENTS.
Report From Gen. Otis on Operations
in the philippines.

IN the EnitApphhSsr
Washington, Nov 22-Gen. Otis to-day
cabled the war department as follows:
Manila. Nov. 22.-Dispatch list from
Lawton at Tayug reports Young with
cavalry and Macabebe scouts at Aringay
with advance north to Baoang, rear San
Fernando about to move on trail east to
Trinidad. Young reports considerable in.
surgent force moving in that direction;
that Aguinaldo in charge seeking TO cross
over TO Bayombong. Portion Of Lawtons
troops now being pushed through TO Tay-
ug with ratIous. Battalion Twenthy-fourth
will join Lawton tomorrow. Nothing
from Wheaton for several days. MacAr-
thur operating west of railroad and north
of Tarlann. Wire from Tarlann north
working; troops on entire railroad line ra-
toned without difficulty.
"Iloilo reports seven companies Sixth
and Twenty-sixth Volunteers, under
Diekman, struck insurgents northeast
Jaro; casualties six wounded. Enemy left
on field eighteen killed. Dickman cap
tured seven prisoners, four one-pound
brass field pieces, several thousand rounds
ammunition. Eighteenth Infantry yester-
day drove insurgents north on Santa Bar
bara. Hughes with column north and
west of Santa Barbara;' reports of results
not yet received"
The dispatch from Gen. Otis does NOT
yet make ii appear that the efforts to
capture Aguinaldo and the larger portion
of his army will be successful. The in
tention of Gen, Young to prevent ,Aguin-
aldo reaching Bayonbong seekds evident,
but this seems scarcely probable now.
Some errors have been made In the trans
mission of the dispatch. Bayonbong il
evidently intended for Bayombong. The
town given as Tarlana is probably Tarlac,
as the situation of Macarthur would in
dictate that he is operating not far from
that place. No alarm is felt regarding
the situation of Gen. Wheaton, as ne has
been for some time beyond Geographic
communication. Operations are also pro-
crossing in the islands south of Luzon,
as the last portion of the dispatch indi-
Gates.
The next move of importance Is to be
made by Gen. Wheaton, who will go UP
the coast by transport to Vigan at the
mouth of Abra river. This will land his
forces far to the north of where Aguinal-
do is supposed to be, the intention being
to cut off his retreat TO the north. From
the military information bureau 1t Is
learned that east of the route Aguinaldo
is taking are mountains inhabited by
tribes which are not friendly to Agulnaldo
and would be likely to attack him If he
attempted to cross their territory The
country along the coast is quite well set
tied. There are several little rivers max
ing harbors from which 1T is feared Agui-
naldo may escape by boat Gen. Young, Il
is believed, is watching these smaller
ports with a part of his force.

cULLoM ON NATIONAL TOPICS.
No Doubt, He Says, That Congress
WIN Build Nicaragua Canal.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Nov. 22.-United
States Senator Shelby NJ. Cnllom of Illin-
dis, arrived here to-day from Washington,
accompanied by United States Pension
Commissioner II. Clay Evans. They came
to attend the dedication of the Illinois
monuments.
Senator Cullom gave out an interview
touching upon many important national
subjects. He stated that there was no
doubt that the House Of Representatives
would refuse to seat Congressman Roberts
Of Utah.
Speaking Of the Nicaragua canal ques-
ton, he stated that Congress would un-
doubleday build this canal but that IL had
not been decided whether it would be or
dered at the coming session.
He said Congress would make declara-
ton in favor OF the vigorous prosecution
of the war for the supremacy OF the United
States over the Philippine Islands
Mr. Cullom paid a beautiful tribute TO
Vice President Hobart, saying he was the
best presiding officer the Senate has had
in thirty years, and that he was one OF
the most popular and brilliant men he hal
ever met.

Athens. Ala, Nov 22.-The debate at
Elkmont to-day between Senator John T.
Morgan and Gov. Johnston was produce
tive of an incident which produced con
siderable excitement.
As in former debates, Gov. Johnston had
the opening and closing. The Governor
was nearing the end of his time to-day
when he began reading the alleged Wash
ington interview with Senator Morgan in
which the Senator said that Bryan's lead
ership was not necessary to the success
Of the party and that another leader
might be found to lead the party 10 vic
tory. Senator Morgan arose and said:

resenting me-"

YES" came the retort, FOR l told you
Yesterday that this Interview was not
true, but you continue to misrepresent
me. and / say to you now, that " you do
It again, Governor or no Governor will
hold you TO account"
The Senator had walked over TO where
Gov Johnston was standing and shook
his finger at him as he delivered his words.
There was considerable excitment, and
cries of "Sit down. Sit down." and Let us
do the fighting" were heard. 1t was some
time before Gov. Johnston could resume.
