only about q dozen boats have been al

OF FRUIT
Germany Seeks to Raise and to Use
More Of IL
More Of ii

The question of the utilization Of
fruit is being discussed. q great deal in
interested circles in Germany, not be-
there has been an o%ver-produc-
ton. or that producers have had any
difficulty in disposing of all the fruit
they could raise. On the contrary, the
amount Of fruit produced in Germany
is much too small to meet the existing
demand. The desire to increase the
use Of fruit, and especially Of fruit
products, is based on three motives:
For sanitary reasons, it is deemed
wise to encourage Germany to eat more
fruit and fruit products, prepared in as
many attractive forms as possible.
This may be a sincere recommendation
on the part Of physicians, but It's. use
as an argument by sellers of fruit prob
ably Is due not entirely to disinterest-
ed concern in the physical condition Of
the German nation, which certainly
present. If individuals can. however,
be persuaded that an increased con-
sumption Of jam will affect f%avorably
their mental, moral or physical devel-
opment, this may aid materially an i'm
portant agricultural interest and at
the same time have a stimulating eject
on the sugar industry, which is threat
ened by foreign competition and retail
.iation on the one hand, and by over
production at home on the other.
As there is already an under-produc-
ton of fruit. an increase Of its utiliza.
ton will have a tendency to raise
prices, and that, of course, will in
crease the profits Of farmers.
An increase in the use of conserves,
marmalades, ETC., means an increase Of
consumption of sugar in the home
market, and this is desired earnestly to
lessen the surplus production, which
can now be disposed of only through
expectation.
A German axiom is that each branch
Of industry must seek constantly to in
crease its profits by providing diligent-
ly for the utilization Of. its products
and trying to find new means for ex-
tending sales. No one probably
thought, when the cultivation of sugar
beets was begun, that this industry
ever could influence and contract other
branches Of agriculture, as has been
the case. This has been possible only
by a scientific and intelligent policy,
and by subordinating through united
action, temporary individual interests
to a determination to consider always
and only the general welfare and de-
velopment of the industry. Instead Of
prostituting a valuable industry for
the aggrandizement Of a few individu-
ais, the German idea has been to do
everything possible to establish it on
a firm basis. and thus provide a secure
means of existence in Germany for
hundreds Of thousands Of persons who
might otherwise be forced into emf
grafton by their necessities.
DR.. Paul Degener has reported to the
German Agricultural Society that in
1897 England imported 6.656,000 bush
els Of fresh fruit. OF this amount,

had entered West Point together, one
of them from North Carolina and the
other from Missouri. They were room
mates at the Point, and remained such
through the course of the Military
academy, entertaining for each other a
friendship more devoted than that of
most brothers. Being graduated to-
gether each returned to his own home
and married. Both entered the same
regiment, renewing their intimacy.
They went together into the battle at
San Juan on July l., 1898,and both were
shot and killed in the same hour, fall
ing within a few yards Of each other.
When the list of killed was printed in
the newspapers their names were con-
secutive. Each left a widow and three
children.
To my notion the hero of the civil
war on the Confederate side was Sam
Davis, the scout. He was caught in
Tennessee with papers Of Importance
on his person and arrested. A young
and of fine appearance, his case
excited sympathy on the part Of the
Federal authorities, and he was in
formed that II he would tell who gave
him the papers they would give him q
fine horse, with equipments, and a pis-
toll, and send him under safe escort to
the lines. He refused and was SEN
fenced to death as a spy. Up to the
very scaffold they begged him to yield,
urging that a mere boy like he ought
not to sacrifice his life for such q tride,
but he shook his head and was hanged.
Gen. Dodge, who was in; command Of
the Federals, was so struck with adj
miration at such noble itortitude that
he sent his own check for $25 as q COM
tribution to q fund for q monument 70
the scout, with words Of praise for his
character.

SAN DIEGO COAL STATION.

Washington, June l6.-The Navy De-
partment has decided to establish a
coaling station of the secOnd class at
San Diego, Cal. This decision has been
reached upon report from Captain
Field of the Ranger, announcing the
result of a survey of the narbor at the
place recently made by him. The re-
port states that the minimum depth
of water over the bar at low tide IL
twenty-one feet and the tidal Use
amounts to about five feet, 81 here is
sufficient water for naval vessels of the
smaller type. Further the report states
that 1t is entirely possible to coal the
largest naval ships in the bay to the
east of the harbor entrance, the water
there being sheltered from the prevail
ing winds by the big kelo bed, so that
lighters could safely lay alongside the
warships.
The War Department, which owns
the large tract of land to the westward
of the harbor entrance, also agreed to
give the Navy Department sufficient
ground for the station Just above Bal
last Point and as soon as Captain Field
has definitely located the tract desired,
the reservation will be announced.

AMERICANS WE'RE NOT THERE.

of a dispatch from Admiral KcmpT

warded by Commander Tdusslg of the

THE Department mas received q ca
blegram from Admiral Hemph. dated
June Goth. He says The raku rrrts were
captured by the other ior";g1 forces:
that heavy firing was heard at Ticn
Tsin on the evening of the 18th inst.
He is making common cause with the
foreign powers for general protection.
There are 500 Americans ashore. on
May 3lst the number Of oreign troops
at Picking was 1870. Th4re are 5000 men
ashore now at Cheioo. and about 5000
troops-Russian German and English
have just arrived
Naval officers generally bitterly re-
greet that Admiral Kempff was not in
the fighting at TaHu, Up to the re-
ceipt of his dispatch this afternoon,
they had continued TO hope, even in
face of the foreign reports to the con-
trary, that the American naval forces
had taken some part in repelling the
attack of the Chinese forts. But the
Admiral's statement hat the forts were
captured by the other foreign forces
dismissed that hope.

WHO rs LITTLE?

The question is asked by ponder
Gus contemporary in connection with
Gilbert +. Little of Hilo whom the
President of the United States honored
with an appointment to the circuit
bench of the Territory of Hawaii. 1t is
perhaps most timely question in view
zens and those scheduled among promi
nent citizens appear, even at the pres
ent time, to fall short of a full realiza-
ton of who Little is.
Gilbert +. Little is patriotic Ameri-
can, he Is a loyal Republican. These
qualifications to favorable considera-
tion may not be held in high esteem by
the more prominent factors among his
critics for reasons best known to them
selves. Invested with this authority
and a knowledge of Hawaiian condi-
lions as gained by several years active
life in the Islands, Little went to
Washington early in the session of the
Fifty-sixth Congress. He represented
to certain extent private INTEREST,"
He gave his time and energy to the dis
cussion OF important measures touch
ing the general welfare of every pros
pective American citizen in the Terri
tory.
That Little should presume to advo-
cate the establishment of the Hawaiian
Territory on broad American lines,
with the end in view that no member of
the Observation-Disclosures body polite
should be excluded from the right of
franchise, called down upon his head
all the wrath and bitterness Of person
al attack that could be mustered In the
ranks of locally assumed official i'm
portance. The delegate of the Cocoanut
Club turned upon Little his squirt gun
of utilization, almanac stories and
vulgar buffoonery. Not this alone. An
effort was made 10 refuse Little hear
ing before Congressional committees,
His record was assailed, his personal
and political standing was thoroughly
searched for vulnerable points. Strange
indeed 1t seemed to his enemies, that
Little stood his ground, accepted the
attacks from whence they came and
showed up smiling before the commit
tees backed by some of the strongest
men of the nation. In word, Little
proved himself a worthy American CT
high standing in the party.
Little is the man who proposed that
Honolulu be the temporary capital OF
the Territory, and while his enemies
We're arguing the question, took advan-
tage of the time thus gained to get in
his work for a liberal franchise, The
result was that by the time his enemies
had walked up, Little had won out

BRl .jN'S SERIOUS TASK

LONDON. June 2O.--It is dawning ON
Great Britain that unless the political
crisis at the Cape is actfully and sue
cessfdlly handled the paciication Of
South Africa may be indefinitely de-
layed. The putting down of possible
anti-Britlsh agitation in a British col
ony. similar to that which has existed
for a century in Ireland, but without
the physical force element, is recog-
nized as being a far more serious task
than outiianking and disarming the
Beers.
A prominent Free Slater, with Brit
ish sympathies. but with many rela-
tives on the Boer and bond side, said
to-day that he believed the bond party
would break ont into armed revolt were
rifles so easily obtained as they were
before the commencement of the war.
He has only Just come to England from
the Cape. and though opposed to the
bondites. is respected and trusted by
them.
The gravity of the issues depending
on a solution of the situation caused by
Mr.. Schreiners resignation of the Pre-
miership of Cape Colony can be better
gagged by this Free Stater's candid
opinion than by any censored state
ment from Cape Town.
The English papers devote many edi-
torials to the question. Those which
| are inspired show no desire to have Sir
John Gordon Sprigg in sole power, and
Mr.. Schreiner in the opposition ranks,
for. apart from the fact that 1t is doubt
full II he can maintain his majority, the
opinion prevails at the Colonial Office
and is expressed by almost everybody
coming from the Cape, regardless 1f
political faith, that Sprigg is utterly
untitled in point of ability to steer the
| colony out of the present crisis.
