SUGAR BEET INDUSTRY.
The Department Of Agriculture, for the
last two years. has been conducting ma
ton-wide experiments 10 ascertain
whether the people Of the United states
can produce their own sugar from their
own sugar bacts. The matter has gone
so far that the Secretary has no doubt
whatever Of the success Of the industry.
About a score of mills were running last
fall. another score IS being built, and IN

INFLUENTIAL CUBAN WOMAN.
Madame Cespedes an important Fac
tor IN National Councils.

HABANA, May 3.-The future Of cuba
will probably be largely influenced by
woman, Madame Cespedes, whose salon
is visited by the best-knOwn mer, not
only of Habana, but Of the entire island.
General Maxine Gomez is a constant
visitor and a welcome guest OF this
ladys, and dimes with her frOm three TO
five times a week.
Madame Cespedes Is the widow Of the
first President OF Cuba i'm the ten-years
war, and decisions re- ched at her salon
are~fa more effective than any decree
passed by the recently defunct cuban
Assembly. Men Of standing who are de-
voted TO the principle of Cuban national
independence are welcomed TO the salon
and assist I'm its councils. IL is believed
by persons who are in a position TO know
that a full understanding has been reach
ed by Madame Cespedes and General Co
mez regarding Cuba's future and the first
real President OF the proposed republic,
for all former presidents have had ONCE
without power At one time General Co
mez was seriously considered Tor the
presidency but after the action OF the
assembly in assailing his course 1t was
considered that his candidacy would prob
ably meet with strong opposition.
the result or CONSULTATIONS at Alaual-iO
Cespedes's salon is, it is asserted, that
the first President Of Cuba shall be Carlos
Cespedes, son Of the war President.
The party Of General Gomez believe
that it is none TOO early to begin move
ment in behalf Of Carlos Cespedes, as
they expect that American occupation OF
the island will end before next summer
ana probably by April. 1900. 1t is repre-
sented that Carlos Cespedes possesses
every quality that is likely TO make MN
popular with the masses throughout the
entire island. He is about 40 years old,

not all of them. The report Of Captain
Sperry, OF the Yorktown, as supplemented
by the press dispatches indicated that
the ambuscade OF the Yorktown party
took place close to the town Of Baler At
the last accounts this place was in the
possession Of a Spanish garrison, which
had withstood the attack of the Tagals
for many months. Therefore, the naval
officers here believe that some Of the
Yorktown's people succeeded in making
their way into the Spanish lines where
they would be well treated, but would be
cut off from communication with the out
side world for a time. Admiral Dewey is
now striving to get into communication
with the garrison at Baler and clear up
all doubt on this subject.

GATE CITY, VA. May 1.-The
parsonage Of the Methodist Eplsco-
pal. church. South. at this place, was
burned late last night. The family Of
the pastor Rev. J. J.. Weber. was abb
sent. and Mr.. Weber was sleeping alone
IN the house. He had kindled a fire in
the stove early in the evening and had
retired. From this the flames probably
originated. The fire was discovered By
a pedestrian on the street who ran 10
the door and aroused Mr. Weber, who
otherwise would probably have persisted
IN the flames, as, owing TO his arduOus
iabors during the day, he was quite
weary. There was $500 insurance on the
property destroyed. Mr.. Weber is
very able and popular minister. lie was
reared at Charleston, S. c., and Is a
graduate Of the university Of his native
State.
