FORCES BARRIAS TO LEAVE.
Son of Former President of Guatemala
an Exile.

Exile.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 12.-Apto-
MO BarriOs, leader of the liberal party
of Guatemala, whose followers are
striving to place him in the presiden-
tial chair now occupied by Manuel
Estrada CABRERA, was a passenger on
the steamer San Jose, from Panama.
He is a son of the late General Rufino
Barrios, founder of the liberal party of
Guatemala, whose term as president
covered period of fourteen years.
Senior Barrios, while admitting that
his residence in San Francisco was
due to political difference between his
sympathizers and the party in power,
would not acknowledge that he was
forced to fee from his country. 9th
er passengers, however, who arrived
by the same steamer, say that not only
was he compelled to take his depar-
ture, but President CABRERA allowed
him only ten days to do so. They
say also that Guatemala is on the
verge of a revolution, which will pro-
badly result in the downfall of the Ca
bera government to the gain of the
liberals, WI are almost unanimous in
their choice of Antonio Barrios for
president.

FOUR MILLION FOR A YACHT
Huge Fortunes Sunk in Building eu"p
 tuous Pleasure Craft.

The new steam yacht Victoria anu Albert. which has been built TOT tue queen at Tenby, will be on completloh the handsomest and fastest yacht any British sovereign has possessed. u VII! rank only second to the emperor ol Russia's wonderful yacht, the oiai Star. which is said to have cost close upon 100000. Nothing more laVlSh- ly elaborate than the fitting ana aeco- ration of the Polar Star could easily ee imagined. Money has been drilled lneo her frame in hundredwe1ghts. lhe decorations of the dining saloon, when will seat 150 guests, cost approXlmately S100,000. Exquisite paintings by some of the most celebrated artists adofn the saloons and cabins and all the woodwork is elaborately carved. Ihefe is a fine library and muslc-room aboard and a beautiful white marble fountain. while some of the ornaments are of the rarest. The Standart, the czar's smaller steam-yacht or 4'0Vo tons, is much more frequently used than the Polar Star. She costs slight ly over $2 SOC, ,000 This is only about half the price of the Polar Star, but the Standart is one of the most stump tuous yachts afoat. There is accom- modation aboard for a crew of o0o' twenty officers and eighty passengers. There are three magnificent suites oI apartments devoted to the use ot the emperor, empress and dowager en= press. a fine library a billiard-room and music saloon. The dining saloon is paneled in tulipwood; the door handles, finger plates and the lamp fittings are of heavily carved solid sll- yer. There is a fine marble bathroom with heavy silver fittings, and the walls and doors of the principal cabin are elaborately inlaid with ivory and mother-of-pearl. So many improve ments and additions have been made to her appointments since she was first completed that she is now worth probably half as much again as she originally cost. The German emperor s famous steam yacht, the Hohenzollern, of nearly 4,000 tons, was, considering her beauty and purpose, eompara- lively inexpensive vessel, costing con- siderably less than $1,000,000. She has very beautiful interior and splen- did accommodation for crew and pas sengers alike, and is considered one of the fastest. smoethest-going yachts afloat.

Bananas,

New York Tribune: A virtuous ban- ana company has withdrawn from the 1nrighteous banana trust, shocked and hurt because it was asked to help force the price of bananas up from S115 to $2.50 a bunch. The public value of this news is that bananas can be profitably produced at s115 a bunch. Now, a good bunch contains at least hundred bananas, and there fore bananas can be produced at lit- tie less than cent and a quarter apiece. And one banana contains as much nourishment as a pound of beef.

FROZEN FOOD INDUSTRY.
Remarkable Increase in the Business in
 the Last Decade.

the Last Decade.
 From the Indianapolis News Frozen food plays a part in the English econ omy that We in this country do not re- alize, although we are all familiar enough with cold storage houses and refrigerator cars Tn 1880 London re- eeived it's first consignment of 400 frozen carcasses of Australian sheep. Tn spite of the prejudice against it, the traffic has grown until now there are eighty-eight vessels engaged in the traffic, with carrying capacity of 6,700,000 carcasses per annum. A single vessel sometimes lands at London TO-, 900 eareasses of frozen mutton. At one wharf 10000 to 12,O00 of such careasses are handled daily and one warehouse will hold 250,000 of them; all are from Australia and New Zea- land Sheep were imported into Aus tralia with the conyiets to Botany bay a little more than century ago, and with the small population and the vast plains for grazing, focks increased so that in 1867 farmer is recorded who for four months of the year boiled down daily from 1000 to 1.500 sheep for their tallow and until 1880 1t was common in Australia and New Zea- land to kill focks of sheep for their hides and tallow, leaving the earcasses to manure the ground, as used to be done with cattle in South America. There is difference between frozen and chilled meat. The meat that Eng land receives from America is chilled, but that sent from Australia, 13,000 miles away, must be frozen. Australia and New Zealand have twenty-two freezing works in operation, whose total capacity is 100000 earcasses per annum. One of the results of the frozen and chilled meat trade is that people are now able to eat fresh meat who half century ago could only get it as a h'vlry. Naturally we are less dependent O. such food than England, but the growing use of refrigerator ears and cold storage houses is giving us variety of diet that was impossible few years ago,

FamiIy Driven Mad.

An extraordinary case of madness, in which all members of a family, con- sisting of father, mother and four ehil- dren, were simultaneously afflicted, has occurred at Stavelot. A party of stroll ing gypsies, who undertook to tell the fathers fortune by means of cards, declared that he would be killed while serving in the army, and this predic- ton so impressed him and his family that in the course of the same day they all developed signs of wavering reason, and before long had to be put under restraint. The gypsies. who were the source of the trouble, were arrested by the German police while crossing the frontier from Belgium.

A CostlY nrnnehf.

The drought of the last few years has cost New South Wales an enorm- ous sum of money. The foeks of the colony have shrunk from 66.000, 900 to 46.0Q0,0 0Q0 representing a loss of 20,- 000,000 sheep. If to this is added the loss of the natural increase. the shrink age amounts to 50.000.000 sheep; enough, that is. to equip a consider- able-sized colony. In addition there has been loss of nearly 300,000 horses and 15o000 cattle. That thea colony has been able to survive theseV terrific losses is a striking proof of energy and resource. Translated into money the colony has suffered loss due to inad- equate rainfall of from $60,O00,000 to SOC, ,Q00, ,000.
