Barley Oats and Peas.

Next to hay and corn. no crop is
priced 50 highly by the dairyman as
the grains above mentioned either
alone or in combination with each
other. These crops have three distinct
uses. First, as a green soiling crop;
second, when cut and cured as hay,
and third. when allowed to ripen, cut
and threshed. and the resulting grain
fed; while the straw is valuable for
bedding or to a small extent for feed
ing purposes. They are the earliest
crops to sow In the spring, and follow
rye and wheat in succession for soil

surpassed by clover. They are great

Reflections of a Bachelor.

There are a whole lot of men who
never hear new, witty story with
out its reminding them OF an old,
rotten one.
TIE love of a little child is the most
valuable love in the world, because
the little child is the only one that
doesn't expect to get anything out
of it.
Some men are so mean that to get
even with their wives for something
they will even quit acting like they
would die for them when there's com
pany.
1t is funny thing that wicked
people hate to die just as much as
good people who spend their lives
making it so uncomfortable for them
on earth.

THE
new YORK WORLD !
THRICE-A.WEEK EDITION.
Practically a Daily at the Price of a
Weekly.

The striking and important events
of the last year have established the
overwhelming value of the Thrice-a-
Week World to every reader Fora
almost nominal sum it has kept in
formed of the progress of all our
wars, and, moreover, has reported
them as promptly and as fully as if
it were a daily. With our interests
still extending throughout the world,
with our troops operating in the
Philippines, and the great Presiden-
tial campaign, too, at hand, it's value
is further increased.
The motto of The Thrice. a. Week
World is Improvement. 1t strives
each year to be better than it was the
year before, and public confidence in
it is shown by the fact that it now
circulates more than twice as many
papers every week as any other news
paper, not a daily, published in Amer
! lea.
We offer this unequaled newspaper
and the News AND CITIZEN together
the year for $1.75.

Gen. Roy Stone Before the House In

Gen. Roy Stone, who has made a study
of the condition of the roads in Puerto Rico,
appeared before the House committee on in
sular affairs yesterday afternoon. He has
only recently returned from the island. He
said the Presidents recommendations rela-
tive to the island had been generally COM
mended by the intelligent portion of the
population.
They desired, above all things, free trade
with the United States, and some form of
civil government, territorial or colonial He
was Of the opinion that any legislative
body created should have a majority of
Its members appointed by the President.
He differed from Gen. Davis in thinking
that railroads in Puerto Rico would not
pay. There should be. he said, a general
railroad law. Capital, he said, was willing
to embark in the building of roads without
state aid. He thought the coffee planters
Eeeded help, but that the sugar men could
take care of themselves.
There was great necessity for education
In the island. The people were anxious to
learn. He extolied them as docile and in
dustrious, who desired nothing SO much as
to be let alone to advance their own for
tunes. He gave 1t as his opinion that the
time when existing mortgages could be
foreclosed should be extended for two
years.

AN INTERESTING TEST
Trial Of the. Model Of Improved Holland
Submarine Torpedo Boat.
Built on the Same Principles with Inn
ence The Conditions.

Tests of working model of boat
No. of the Holland type. designed by
Mr.. John P. Holland ard manufactured by
the Holland Torpedo Boat Company, were
conducted in the experimental basin at the
washington navy yard today. The mod
ell, which is of wood, ballasted with
lead, is little over eight feet long. and is
exactly one-eighth the size of what the ves-
sci ii reproduces will be. 10 Europe such
models are made of paraffine but climatic
conditions in this country prevent the sue
cessful use of that material for such pur-
poses. Boat No. is designed to have many
in provements over the Holland which has
already demonstrated the practical ability
of submarine torpedo boats in over 115
runs. both official and otherwise, and has
successfully proven its ability to expel
Whitehead torpedoes over twenty-five
times
The new boat will be. when completed,
larger in dimensions than the Holland will
carry hve instead OF three Whitehead tor
pedoes and will have a larger radius of ac-
ton. 1t is believed to be the perfection of
submarine boat development up to date. 1t
is being constructed precisely on the prin-
ciples of the Holland, from the designs of
the wonderful inventor, and the improve
ments are merely those which experience
with the Holland has shown to be advis-
able.
The most notable improvement in the new
boat is the introduction of automatic bal
lasting. which will be available in any kind
of water. either fresh salt. or any ad-
mixture of the two. Salt water is 3 per
cent heavier than fresh water, and in a
boat the size of No. Z the difference in its
displacement between fresh and salt water
would be about four tons. This improve
ment is regarded remarkable achieve
ment, as it may be applied to other boats
than the type in question.
Three Conditions.
The tests today We're under three
conditions: First, the model was shown
light and surface running: second, it was
tried awash with part of the turret show
ing, and, last, it was tested entirely sub
merged. The resistance of the huh to wa
ter, the wave formations caused by its
progress. and the wake created thereby
were carefully examined in order to dis
cover if there was very much agitation.
especially in the latter respect, so that an
endeavor might be made to correct it If
discovered to exist.
II was the first test of the model of boat
No. Z. Similar tests of models of the Plum
ger and the Holland. built upon the same
scale Of dimensions, one-eighth, are to fol-
low in few days.

wARSHIPs UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
Admiral HichbOrn Says Favorable
PrOSress il Being Made.

Admiral Hichborn chief of the bureau of
construction and repair. has made report
| to the Secretary of the Navy, showing that
favorable progress is being made the
vessels under construction for the navy.
The battle ship Kearsarge is reported to be
within , per cent of completion, and the
| battle ship Kentucky within per cent
Both of these vessels are under construc-
ton at Newport News. The other big bat
tie ships nearing completion are the Ala
bama. at Cramp & Sons, 90 per cent, and
the Wisconsin, at the Union iron works, 81
per cent and the Illinois at Newport News,
70 per cent. Work has just started on the
battle ship Missouri, at Newport News;
while the Maine, at Cramp & Sons, is less
than one-fifth completed, and the Ohio is
just one-tenth completed. OF the sheathed
protected cruisers, the Albany, built at
Armstrong;, England, is reported as 81
per cent completed. That vessel had trial
trip Tuesday and exceeded her contract
speed of 20 knots. Naval officers say that
she will prove a valuable addition to the
navy. Work has not yet commenced on
any of the other six vessels of the same
class. all of which are contracted for in
this country. OF the four monitors, the
Connecticut, at the Bath iron works, and
the Wyoming. at the Union iron works,
are about one-third completed.
There are thirty-five torpedo boats, in
Guiding destroyers, under construction, the
majority of which are less than half COM
pleted. The T. A. NJ. Craven, at the Bath
iron works. heads the list in point of pro-
gress of construction. being 90 per cent
completed. followed by the Goldsborough
at Wolff & Zwicker's, 81 per cent, and the
Stringham, at Harlan & Hollingsworth's, 90
per cent. In the next class, in order of
completion, are the Lawrence and Mac
Donough, at the Fore River Engine Com
pany's works, and the Shubrick, Stockton
and Thornton at William r. Trigg Com
pany. These vessels are more than 20 per
cent completed. All the other torpedo boats
range from 81 per cent, in the cases of the
Blakely and DeLong, at George Lawley &
Sons, down to per cent N the cases of
the Bagley, Barney and Biddle at tine Bath
iron works. The submarine torpedo boat
Plunger, building at the Columbian iron
works, Baltimore, is reported to be So per
cent completed.

CAMPAIGN SOUTH OF MANILA.
Position of American TrOops-Attitude
of Mgr. NOzRleda.

A dispatch from Manila last night says:
Reports of the movements of the Amer
lean commanders south of Manila show
that Gen. Bates and Gen. Wheaton are at
Perez das Marinas and Gen. Schwan at ST.
lang. all awaiting the arrival of provision
wagons. Reconnaissance have shown that
1000 armed insurgents have retired to the
mountains from the district between In
dang and Maig and that others have re-
treated along the coast from Noveleta to-
ward Ratangas.
Last night Nolan's squadron of the 18th
Cavalry drove a body of insurgents from
Maig. One American was killed and two
We're wounded. Thirteen dead Filipnos
were found.
The movement largely resembles Gen.
Schwan's experience in the same country
last summer. except that the towns are
now being garrisoned and that the insur-
gents refuse to fight retreating southwark
and dividing into small bands. with the ap-
parent intention of reassembling later. The
plan of catching large number between
two brigades has failed. About hundred
insurgents have been killed, but compare
lively few arms have been taken.
The region is full of amigos, who doubt
less have been bearing arms, which they
have hidden. The women and children re-
main in their homes, and the insurgents.
as they fall back, release all prisoners they
have captured.
1t is asserted on high authority that
Archbishop Nozaleda contends in his in
terviews with Monsignor Chapelle, the pa
pal delegate, on behalf of the Roman
Church and the brotherhoodS, that the
titles to all property held by the church
and the brotherhoods in the Philippines
should be recognized; that the Roman cat
echism should be taught in the primary
schools: tina, the existing religious orders
should continue to administer the parishes:
that other parishes should be established
under the same control and that the pa
rochial control of cemeteries should con-
tinue.
He also lays stress in his contentious
upon the importance of allowing the church
to administer its own affairs without state
interference. upon the necessity of regime
that will guarantee the liberty of the
church. upon the desirability of European
clergy, the establishment of new college
for the instruction of native priests, and
the continuation of indirect contributions
for the maintenance of churches and clergy,
and upon the eXpedency of maintaining the
system of parochal fees including rev.
enues from births. marriages, funerals, dis
pensations and apostolic indulgences.
In addition. Archbishop Nozaleda advises
the continuation of the church's control of
pawnshops and certain designated hospitals
and schools, together with the establish
ment of a special form of parochial ad-
ministra ion exacted by the actual condi-
lions in the Philippines. Finally, he makes
plea for the continuation of the present
missionary work of the church.

determine what amounts. if any, are due
the state from the United States and what
obligations of the state TO the United States
remain undischarged. The government
claims aggregate about $4,000 and in
cludc state bonds purchased as an invest
rent by Indian trust funds to the amount
OF So00,oO0. The claims of the state amount
TO about S1,2OO,0O0 and include the use Of
railroads during the war in which the
state had lien, keeping prisoners, and rent
OF penitentiary and insane asylum build
ings. Today the Attorney General sitting
with the Secretary of the Treasury and the
