HOURLY VISITING BY NURSES.


 new system has just been started by trained nurses, which will certainly prove boon to q majority of patients and must eventually prove very lucra- tive to the nurses themselves.
 There are thousands of people who are i'll, and yet cannot afford the luxu- ry of a trained nurse. Again, there are others who do not need the services of nurse all day and all night. The first class cannot have them on account of the expense, and consequently suffer and are i'll longer than if they could have only a portion of a nurses care The second class are not ill long enough to need the constant presence of a trained nurse.
 The nurse can now be hired to come in an assist at an operation, to visit a patient at certain hours, dress wounds bathe or change or otherwise make them comfortable in manner such as a woman trained to such work alone can do.
 Many sick persons are made very nervous by the presence of an absolute stranger constantly in the room With them, and often prefer to dispense with the services of a trained nurse for that very reason. Under the new arrange ment such persons can obtain all the benefits necessary for these visits.
 The fee charged is graduated very fairly, and come within the reach of the greater majority of persons.

Yemen has been for years in chronic instruction, brought about by the mal- administration and eXtortion of Turk ish officials. The truces which are patched up from time to time are brols- en whenever the Arabs feel strong enough to rebel against the Turkish au- thority. There was severe figthing in Yemen last year, but no reports have some from there lately.

-------------- SKATERS AT LAKE WHITNEY.
The Sport is Being Enjoyed by Large Crowd.


 Crowd.
 At least three or four hundred skaters went out to Lake Whitney yesterday afternoon to enjoy a skim over the ice. Most of the skaters sought the new formed ice above the bridge. where the surface is almost as smooth as glass, There was also large number of hock- ey teams playing all through the after' noon, but these were mostly on the fieid below the bridge, where the ice is very thick and rough.
 The ice which has formed on the lake in the places where the New Haven Ice company has recently cut is the best of the year. The ice is uniformly smooth over large area and contrasts very greatly with the rough, uneven formation of the lower part of the lake.

tons, chiefly of Bessemer grades.
Among rumors of changes In the ore
trade is the report OF negotiations by
a Pittsburg interest for well known
Mesabi mine. The purchase OF the
Norman, which is another transact
ions, Is noted elsewhere. There is no
immediate expectation of a meeting
of Bessemer ore producers for 1899.
The iron trade has crossed the line
into the new year with the tide OF
mid-winter prosperity still running
high, and destinated from all appear
ances to rise higher. Such activity
at the close of year brings to mind
that Of 1890, but it is to be hoped
the parallel will end there. The best
students Of the situation believe that
1t will and that no boom will come;
at the same time conditions are re-
cognized that will scarcely fall to
give measurably higher prices. In
several lines advances have come In
the past week and Others are In sight.
In foundry iron, for example, there. Is
no prospect of any important addit-
ion In the near future to the number
OF active furnaces, either In the South
or In the North. In both sections
the question of ore supply Is barrier
apart from the prohibitively low
prices still ruling.-Iron Trade Be-

Ambigos Friendly natives) in the
houses of the town shooting into
their rear. The companies Of the
Twenty-frst regiment, diminishing
along the beach, with Ambigo
guards, found, apparently, a hand
full Of rebels, who retreated. The
men Of the Twenty-frst fol-
lowed. and suddenly the rebels
opened a terrific fire on the troops
from both sides aud the rear.
The soldiers withdrew to the
waters edge, finding what shelter
they could, and were picked off
rapidly. After their ammunition
was nearly exhausted the compan-
les Of the Twenty-frst retreated,
but Gen. Lawton dashed down and
rallied the men. A little group
made a desperate stand, Gen.
Lawton, Maj. Starr and Lieuten-
ants Donovan and Donnelly tax
ing guns from the wounded men
and firing at the enemy, bringing
down some Of the rebel sharp
shooters from a tree. Finally,
their cartridges we're all gone and
they were forced to break their
way through the enemy's flank,
bearing their wounded to the main
body Of troops. Lieut. Donovan,
whose leg was broken, foundered
for a mile through a bog after
leading his men in the face Of a
greatly superior force.
Gen. Lawton ceased fighting
until reinforcements could be
brought up. Two battalions Of
the Fourteenth regiment and one
battalion of the Ninth regiment
were hurried to the front and in
the afternoon the battle was re-
sumed.
The Monadnock anchored up to
the shore and her heavy guns
pounded the rebels continuously,
while the smaller warships, steam
ing the shore, poured bullets from
their rapid-fre guns at the enemy.

hard to get the right kind of a

hustle, excitement and trouble can
be almost entirely obviated by
simply starting in a few days

settled ready for business, at least
a day ahead Of that important

STORY OF H FIGHT.
First Artillery Duel With a Filipino
Battery.

Battery.
Manila, June 10, $40 p. NJ
The fighting at Las Pinas con-
tinued holly all day long. Gen.
Lawton called out the whole force
Of 5000 men and pushed the in
surgents back across the Zapote
river. The insurgents resisted
desperately and aggressively.
They attempted to turn the left
flank Of the American troops.
The American loss is conser-
vatively estimated at sixty.
Gen. Lawton unexpectedly
stirred up one of the liveliest en-
gagements Of the wal south Of Las
Pinas this morning, upon which
occasion American field guns were
engaged in the first artillery duel
against a Filipino battery, con-
cealed in the jungle. Companies
f and l., Of the Twenty-first
infantry, were nearly surrounded
by a large body of insurgents, but
the Americans cut their way out
with heavy loss. The United
States turret ship Monadnock and
and the gunboats Helena and
Zafri trained their batteries on
Bakor and the rebel trenches near
Las Pinas all the morning. Bakor
was once on fire, but the natives
stopped the flames. The insur-
gent cannon was fired three times
at the Americans on the outskirts
of Las Pinas.
Gen. Lawton this morning took
a battalion of the Fourteeth regi.
ment to locate the rebel battery
and then two guns Of the Sixth
artillery and four mountain guns
were planted against it at 6O(
yards distance. The rebels had {
large gun, from which they were
firing homemade canister, loaded
with nails, and two smaller guns
; Their shooting was most accurate
The first canister burst directly il
