PREPARING FOR THE SCRAP
How the News Was Received by the
Men OF the Olympia at Hong
Kong-They Took to War
Like Picnic.

One OF Deweys men who served on
the Olympia is in Butte at present and
will not be present at the celebration in
New York when the Olympia arrives.
He is P. ]. Healy, who served on the
Olympia all through the war, and re-
turned here after his term of enlistment
expired.
Mr.. Healy has written for the Stand
ard the following interesting account of
the preparations made for war and of
the receipt of the news of war on
board the Olympia:
''The United States flagship Olympia
arrived in Hong Kong after five days'
trip from Yokohama, Japan, on Feb.
II, 1898. This is where We got news of
the blowing up of the Maine. The L.
S. s. Petrol was lying in Hong Kong
at the time and Commodore Dewey in
tended to take a trip on her up the
Peral river to Canton, but when he got
the news of the Maine disaster he let
the trip go and gave all his attention to
his fleet, the ships being in different
parts of China, Japan and Corea. He
telegraphed to the different ships to
proceed to Hong Kong with all possible
haste, which they did. The L. s. S.
day. The boys all Clipped in and sent
a telegram to the New York Herald 20
get full particulars of the blowing up
of the Maine, which was received the
next day, and then there was nothing
talked of but war. The commodore
bought two English steamers, filled one
with coal and the other with coal and
stores. The names were the Nanshan
and the ZatirO. He put four sailors and
an officer on each of them. Then you
heard the boys talking about war paint
and going to put it on tomorrow. Fin
ally the day came at last to put on the
war paint, and on il went. II was
Tuesday, April 19. 1898 Everybody
knew we We're in for il then and every
body was happy to show to the dons
and the world that the Yankee boys
remembered the Maine. We had a few
Dagoes playing in the band who tried
10 get their discharge from the cap
tain, but II was no go. We had three
Cinnamon, who ran away that day, and
one white man the next.

orders from Dewey to open fire on the
villain if he could not give a satisfac-
tory account of himself to the COM
modore and his personal staff officer of

some one of the crowd of blue jackets
or marines translated enough to allow
the poor Cinnamon to come on board,
almost exhausted from his long expert

stated that President Mckinley had

From the London Mail.
A new peril seems to threaten white
men in South Africa. They are in danger
of being cut into love charms and used
to increase the marriage rate among the
natives. The flesh of a European is con-
sidered by the black inhabitants of Natal
as charm powerful enough to compel the
love Of any unwilling maiden. When n
young black man loves Il maiden and his
love is not reCiprocated, he goes to a
witch doctor and asks for a love phiter.
Other philters of milder potency hav-
ing been tried and the maiden still re-
naming obdurate and refusing to love her
black sutton, as last resort the doctor
prescribes the flesh of a white man.

WOOL GOTTEN FROM PINE TREES
New Industry About to Be Launched
in the State Of Oregon.

Most men would as soon think of
gatheritg figs off thistles as wool Of
pine trees, yet that is just what
the promoter Of new Oregon in.
duItry proposes to do. Mr.. and
Mrs. d. A. Cords are establishing a
plant at Grants Pass for the man
ufacture of pine needles into fab
ric very like wooden cloth. There is
nothing new in this industry. 1t
has been carried on in Europe for
years, but never before has it oc-
Cured to any one that in the forest
of Oregon is better material and
more OF it for the manufacture Of
pine wool than any place else in the
world.
Mr.. and Mrs. Cords are enthus-
lasts, but are practical minded
withaI, and do not purpose to start
in on too large scale. They in
tend first to make material of the
consistency of excelsior for matres-
ses, after that they will manufac-
ture the cotton which is used for
underclothing, bandages and Other
purposes where a soft and pliable
fabric is required. Only the inner
fabric of the needles can be used
for the latter, and the process Ii
expensive, but no more so than
that of the manufacture of lambs
wool
Mrs. Cords is familiar with the
proceeds of manufacturing fabrics
from the pine needles in Germany
and France, and in a visit to Oregon
something more than a year ago ii
occurred to her that the pine trees
here we're better suited to the pur-
pose of manufacture than those of
the continent. A little investiga-
tion convinced her that it would be
worth while to try the experiment,
and with the assistance of hes hus-
band she tried a small factory at
Grants Pass. Machinery of the
proper kind was not to be had, and
it was necessary to send to Europe
fer it. This caused a delay, and
when the machinery arrived it
proved useless.
