MANILA BEEF PRAISED.
A Cargo Kept in Cold Storage Over Eight
Mnn+he

A Cargo Kept in Cold Storage Over Eight
Months.
Washington, June THE War
Department has received through
the courtesy of the New York
central cable Office an article pub
lished in the Manila Freedom of
April %, regarding the preservation
of beef. It follows:
"Major William Fl. Anderson,
chief commissary, states that the
army storage ship, Duke of Suther-
land, has just finished It's delivery
of fresh beef to the commissaries.
This vessel reached Manila under
command of Capt. Golfer, Septem-
Der Is 1898 It's cargo of frozen
beef had been taken on in Australia
month previous, so the beef issued
to the soldiers yesterday morning
had been in cold storage for over 8
months. The United States army
has certainly created record in the
transportation of frozen meat, for
handling meat in cold storage such
length of time and in such quaint
ties has never before been success.
fully carried out. Soldiers were
never furnished a finer quality of
beef than that furnished yesterday,
which was as wholesome and fresh
as the day it was prepared over in
Australia.
Freedom representatives have often
shared the soldiers dinner in the
trenches or in camp, and the beef is
sued was always excellent in quality
and flavor. On some occasions the
steaks eaten from the end of a bayo-
net were equal to any that money
could buy in the luxurious grill
rooms of the most fastidieus clubs. "

REVOLUTIONARY PLOT IN HAVANA.

lrreconcilabIss Have Prepared a Plan to
Destroy Foreign Investments Unless In
dependence Be Declared Within Two
Years.
New York, June Sin a private
letter received to day by the New
York Herald from q distinguished
Cuban, now a resident of the United
States, is q NEST sensational state
ment about the plans of the irrecon
cilable Cuban leaders. The writer
is conservative and is in a position
to know what is going on at present
in Cuba. The information is as fol.
lows:
THE latest story from Cuba, which
1 have every reason to believe, it
having been told me by prominent
Cuban, whose intimacy with the
leaders in Havana lends authority to
the statement, is that the former
revolutionary element has decided
to make a virtue of necessity and
gracefully, to outward appearances,
accept American intervention.
"At the end of two years, how
ever, if Cuban independence is not
acknowledged and the government
transferred to the Cubans, the torch
is to be applied from one end of the
island to the other, by which means
all foreign investments will be de,
stroyed.
"When it is considered that the
wealth of Cuba is dependent on it's
agricultural development, chiefly
cane and tobacco, and that a fire
brand seriously applied in a cane
field would cause the destruction of
thousands of dollars of value in a
single night, the enormity of the
plot becomes apparent

Gus Stewart, one of our best far
mers of near Wilde, called to see US
when in town Monday, and while
here gave us an idea Of sailing cattle.
He says he always puts the salt en-
the backs of the cattle instead of on
the ground. By so doing the salt
works through the hair and forces
the cattle to lick themselves, which
keeps their hair nice and glossy.
Should there be any wolves in their
backs or vermin on them the salt
destroys them on short notice. BE
claims that he has followed this plan
of sailing for fifteen years and
always has nice healthy cattle. He
says when he starts into the pasture
with a sack of salt every cow begins
licking it's back.-Mt. Vernon Signal.

OWLS HEAD HOTEL BURNED.
Fire Comes Close TO Manager c. o.

Fire Comes Close 10 Manager c. O.
Chamberlain "A Second Time this Year.
Owls Head hotel, situated at the base of
Owls Head mountain on the western shore
of Lake Memphremagog. 10 miles from
Newport, was burned Wednesday after
noon. The telegraphic report says that the
fire was caused by the overturning of a
kettle of boiling tar during the absence of
the Waterman. The loss is placed at $780,
600, partly insured, but this estimate must
include the whole value of the property, in
GLIDING the land.
This was strictly a summer hotel, and its
location was delightful 1t was owned in
New York city. For the past two seasons
1t had been successfully managed by c. o.
Chamberlain, the well-known hotel man of
Brattleboro connection, who has long been
the winter manager of the st. James at
Jacksonville, Fla. Mr. Chamberlain closed
the season at Owls Head two or three
weeks ago and he is now at Sheepshead.
n. Y. He had been engaged as manager
for another year. Three or four Brattle-
boro boys we're employed by him in the ho-
tel during the past summer. The house had
been greatly enlarged and improved, and
at the height of the season it was filed.
Mr.. Chamberlain probably does not suf-
fer in his personal estate by this fire, but it
was only on the 4th of July last that the
Bay View House, Wells Beach. Me-, owned
by him, was burned, and he lost by this
fire some $4,000 or $4,000 above the insur-
ance.
