ment of a trustee, but the referee tlnal-
ly appointed Attorney John G. Gala

yesterday afternoon. Mr.. Ferry filed
petition in bankruptcy several months

close by a compromise by Attorney
Cooley, representing Edwin s. Ferry
and Philander Ferry. The claims Of
Philander Ferry against the estate were
by the compromise lowered until there
was left net amount of $500, and up
on this Referee Newton ordered 10 per
cent. dividend declared to the creditors
by Attorney C. r. Bollman. Mr.. Boil
man appeared for Frank w. Benedict
and j. ID. Dewell, jr, for the Electric
Light company, these being the two

May Return Next Month.

4 letterrcceiveaafew days ago from
Col. Willie Jones by a relative gives the
pleasing information that he is very
well, and that the health OF his COM
mand, the Second South Carolina regi-
ment, isunnsually good. He says: "We
have been in Cuba five weeks to-day.
When we had beenin Florida five weeks
we had 204 men sick, and 10 OF them
died. Only few are now in the hos
pital. So you see low much better this
islandis is than our own State OF Florida.
The weather here is quite cool. Islcpt
under blankets last night, and it is al
most cold enough fOr frost. This c0lm-
try looks like our country III May and
June. The sugar cane fields are per-
fectly magnificent.
From a statement made in the letter
it may be inferred that orders sending
the regiment home arc not unexpected,
and it seems possible that the Second
regiment may return next month. 1t is
understood that Col. Jones is notarerse
to leaving the army and entering again
upon civil life. He states i'll the letter
referred to above that lie hopes to bring
his regiment home next month.
From another source 1T has been
learned that the officers rs we'll rs the
men, for the most part, are anxious to
leave Cuba before the warm weather
begins.-IHc State, Feb. ~.

Lutte was fred over soldiers body.
Just as the evening star swung into
the glowing sky, an old man who had
gone through the war with his father
stepped from behind great tree and
placed the bugle to his lips. He tried
twice and failed. Then t'lights out
quivered and died on the air. The
man sobbed aloud as he broke on the
last note. He had gone in memory
back to the night before the fathers
death. But the mother stood there

the coming years.

And Save Endless Suf-
fering which Winter
Brings.

The most offensive of all dis
eases becomes more intense as cold
weather approaches. In fact,
many who have been under treat
mcnt for so long, and during the
summer feel little discomfort from
the disease, are almost persuaded
that they have been cured. But
the first chilling blast of winter
proves that the disease is still with
them, and as the winter advances,

touch of Catarrh may be sure that
only cold weather is needed to de-

frequency, until before long the
disease isfllly developed.

COifee-CuItnre in Puerto Rico.


Cotfee-raising ranks second as an
industry in Puerto Rico, bringing
wages into the pockets Of thousands Of
earners and substantial profits to the
Golfers of the plantation owner and
exporter.
Besides the assured income from a
well-planted coffee plantation, the life
Of the planter and owner has many
desirable features which recommend
it as an occupation to be followed by
the American investor. First, coffee
must needs be laised in the higher
attitudes Of the picturesque rolling
hills, and on the faces Of the steep
mountainous inclines which finish
upward in sharp zigzaeging narrow
ridges, thus giving him healthful,
cool place Of residence, away from the
hot lowlands and fever country Of the
coast. Second, in the hills and noun
tains living springs for uncontamina-
ted water-supply are found, and, at
the worst, he has always at hand the
cooler, frothing, dashing torrents of
the rock-bound mountain streams
from which to draw crystalline water.
Third, and perhaps most important, no
great technical training is required to
raise coffee successfully, asis the case
with raising sugar or tobacco. Fourth,
the life is an easier one for the pro-
prietor-which is no small factor in
a torrid zone, where excessive activity
is sure to bring on fever in the case of
the unacclimated-in that he travels
in the shade Of the forest which shell
tiers his coffee-trees from the hot sun,
as he makes his overseeing tours, and
works under cover where the pulpy
berry is changed into the finished and
polished bean Of commerce.
Good cofee-land ranges in price
from twenty to FIVE hundred dollars an
acre, depending upon location and the
topography of the site, and again
whether it be virgin soil OF in crop Of
varying age, the highest price being
asked for 6ve-year-old full-bearing
trees, near the great military high
ways, within easy hauling distance Of
coast shipping centres.
It may be said that FIVE hundred
dollars is fictitious value for any
coffee plantation, and that the owner
naming such price is usually a Span
lard, filled with a desire to return to
Spain, but inwardly fearing, even in
his dislike Of the American, that the
new rule may mean unparalleled pro-
gress in the island. Two hundred
dollars an acre for we'll l-grown trees,
with adequate shade above them, has
hitherto been considered good round
sum for plantation, though as much
as three hundred has been paid under
Spanish rule.-l7otpcrs lVcel;lY.
