MONARCHY FOR CUBA.
Promoter an Ex-Generai With Whom the
Authorities Have Had Much Trouble.

Havana, July Ala Lucha pub
fishes a statement regarding matters
which its conductors say they have
been investigating and carefully
guarding for several weeks, owing to
the reticence of those concerned and
the desire of the latter to avoid a pre-
mature disclosure, leading to a possi-
bic failure Of their plans. The paper
says:
Cuba during the last few months
has been land of many surprises.
The latest is the establishment of
royalist party. The new organization
is unimportant at present. probably
numbering fewer than fifty members,
but a well known Cuban general, who
claims to be a descendent of Charlie
magne, is reported to be the head of
the party, and the meeting place is us
ually the Inglaterra cafe. The Cuban
general in question is said to be dis
satisfied with American rule. He
thinks that what Cuba needs is not
republic, but strong hand at the
helm like his own He is of the opin-
ion that the people of the Latin race
prefer royalty and the possible hon
ors accruing under monarchial re-
gime.
The Cuban general referred to is un-
derstood to deny that he is the head of
the party, but there is considerable
evidence that such movement is on

Bacteria In Milk.

Bacteria in milk, which either favor

products, is the lowest form of vegeta-
BILE life. The milk can is good deal
like the farmers field with respect to
vegetable growth. Every farmer knows
that unless he takes very good care of
his fields they will be filled with weeds
that not only possess no value of their
own, but are seriously injurious to
those forms of vegetable life that are
useful Similarly bacterial vegetation
exploits itself in the milk can. Unless
you take care of the milk can those
forms corresponding to the weeds-that
is, the hurtful kind-will multiply i'm
mensely and destroy the usefulness of
the milk and of the helpful kind of veg
citation in it, whereas those that are
helpful to the milk and its products
must be carefully cultivated and the

Slow Churning.

One very common cause OF slow

a number of ''strippers" COWS long in

enough to bring butter in a reasonable
time, the temperature should have been
raised to as high as "A degrees if neces-
sary, not by adding hot water, but by
turning the cream into pail and sur
rounding it with hot water. Adding
water thins the cream, which increases
the difficulty. 1t is not considered the
best plan to keep the cream vessel near
the stove, especially if it be the one on
which the cooking is done, for the rea-
son that Objectionable odors and havors
are sure to become incorporated in the
cream. Again, cream should not be
kept in warm temperature for several
days before churning. A better way is
to keep it cool and stir the cream to
the bottom each time fresh supply is
added About SO to 40 hours before
churning in the winter season two or
three quarts of sour, but good favored,
buttermilk should be added and the
temperature raised to 70 degrees by
setting the cream pail in hot water
bath at 100 degrees, keeping the cream
stirred till 70 degrees is reached. Now
lift cut the cream pail and after stir
ring well set it where it will remain at
the same temperature till it is ready to

which go to make up the main portion
of human food writes Professor D. R.

Chances of Marriage, :" in The Ladies
Home Journal LAS the prices of these
commodities go up the number of mar
riages goes down. From 1851 to 1854
times were good, food was cheap, and
the marriage rate in Massachusetts,
went up to 26 per 1000. Between 1855
and 1859 there was great depression of
trade, and in 1853 the marriage rate
went down to II per 1000 The years
from 1878 to 1879 form another period
of depression. Factories were closed and
manufacturers of every kind suffered
severely. In one year, at least, crops
were short and the prices of food were
high The result was Immediately seen
in matrimony, for in 1874 the number
of marriages went down from 21 per
1000 of the population to Is. and in
1875 and the following two years de-
clined to Is per 1,000-a tremendous
falling off from 26 per 1000, the figure
attained in 1854. which was the banner
year in the state of Massachusetts, for
matrimony.
''Almost as unfavorable as that Of
hard times is the influence of war upon
matrimony. Whenever Mars is in the
ascendant Cupids stock goes down.
During the civil war the number of
marriages in this country fell off from
90 per 1000 of population to II per
