FAINTS BEFORE STATUARY.
Mother Sees Group Showing Heroic
Death of Her Son at battle
of Ell Caney.

Crowds gather hourly around the
piece of statuary in front of the art
gallery at the Buffalo exposition,
which is entitled "El Caney." The
other day there was a pathetic little
scene. Mrs. Helen NJ. Packard, of
Springfield, Mass, read the inscrip-
tion and tainted. She was carried into
the Art building and revived.
1t seems that the soldiers in this
scene were her sons, who volunteered
with the Second Massachusetts, infan-
try. The statuary was modelled on
magazine description by Richard
Harding Davis, relating how he came
on a soldier Of the Second Massachu-
setts standing beside a dying com
rade who proved TO be his brother
Arthur Packard was the dead soldier,
Walter Packard the survivor.
Walter Packard suffered injury to
his health in the campaign and is
compelled to live in Oregon. His
mother is on her way TO Oregon to
take up her home with him, and,
stopping at Buffalo, came upon the
statuary.

CaterpilInrs at Warrington.

Caterpillars have attacked the elms
in the white house grounds, and
their ravages have within a few
davs extended to the shade trees in
parks and avenues in other parts of
Washington. AS in the case of tleas,
myriads of which invaded the homes
of Washington two or three weeks
ago, Prof. L. o. Howard, entomolo-
gist of the department of agriculture,
has come to the rescue with Latin
name for the caterpillar, and calls it
the product of the tussock moth
known as orgyia leucostigma.
But the caterpillars continue their
operations, and many of the most
beautiful trees in the white house
grounds and elsewhere have been al
most stripped of their foliage.
To check the ravages Supt. Lanham
of the park commission assigned a
large force Of men to-day to the work
of knocking the caterpillars from the
trees and then washing the trees by
means Of hose attached to the fire
hydrants.

MUCH BEET SUGAR.
Rapid Development Of This Indus
try in the United States.
Growing Belief That We VIII Shortly
BE Able to Produce the 100000
900 Worth of Sugar Which We
Now Import Annually. e

The growing belief that the United
States will shortly be able to produce
from beets the $100,000,000 worth Of
sugar which her people now annually
import seems to be shared by British
Consul Wyndham, who has given the
subject close attention and reported
upon it to his governme The follow
ing is an extract from his report which
has Just reached the treasury bureau
of statistics:
THE production of beet sugar in the
United States is rapidly increasing,
and in the Chicago consular districts
there are four factories in the state
of Illinois, three in Nebraska and three
in Colorado; those in Nebraska and
Colorado belong to the American Beet
Sugar company, and are at Grand juno
ton, Rocky Ford and Sugar City, and
when fully completed will employ
thousands of hands.
statistics indicate that the United
States consumes more sugar than any
other nation, or approximately one
quarter Of the whole OF the worlds
product. The conditions of soil, eli
mate and other advantages are quite
as good in the United States, and es-
pecially in Colorado, Nebraska and IL
linois, for the developm ent Of the beet
as in any Of the countries of Europe or
Asia. The worlds production and con-
sumption Of sugar is now about $780,
fUn-t birfx Of
which is produced from beet and only
one-third from cane, whilst the normal
consumption is estimated as increas-
ing at the rate of $4,000 tons yearly.
The success attending the cultiva-
ton of sugar beet in this district has
proved that it may be made profitable
and successful Investment. a large
factory has been built at Rocky Ford,
Col, which cost 100000 to build and
equip. 1t is proposed to have it ready
for the crop of the coming season. To
supply il the farmers in the vicinity
beets a year for Ave years, From tests
made they estimate their bects will
yield IS to IS per cent OF sugar. The
factory, when running at its full ca
paeity, will consume daily 1000 tons of
beets, which II will convert into about
100 tons of refined sugar OF the highest
purity The beets reach maturity with
a high percentage, and seldom 60 be-
low Is per cent; 12 per cent. is taken
as the basi, Of buying beets at the fac
tory.
"A general estimate of the cost Of
construction, cost of operation and
general results 10 be counted upon of
beet sugar factories in this district, as
taken from the Rocky Ford plant,
places the general average Of sugar in
the beets at u per cent. So far a S the
Arkansas valley in Colorado is con
cerned, this percentage is being large
ly exceeded; the minimum percentage
Of sugar being Il per cent, while the
maximum has reached % per cent,
with a coefiicient of purity ranging
from so to s5 per cent"

THE oLo SPRING.

A path that leads from the kitchsb door.
Through little garden plot,
Down past the cherry and apple trees
That grow In the pasture lot.
Thence on through beechen avenue
TIL you hear the waters thrill
Upon the pebbles and over the stones
BY the old spring under the hill
The old spring under the hill 10 cool,
With blotches and riffs OF sun:
Its air is grateful and fresh and sweet
AS the air OF summer dawn.
The song Of a bird in the trees above.
Below the song of rlll.
Are the only sounds that are heard around
The old spring under the hill.
How oft We have trudged In other days.
When boys and girls at our play,
To the shades and stiffness Of that old
spring,
Remote from the garish day!
How oft by Its sparkling waters clear
We have knelt and Quaffed our MI!
And never \ draught was so sweet as that
From the old spring under the hill.
The years are many. the years are long.
Between us and that fair time;
We hear no more the tinklinR song,
Nor the waters silver chime:
But oft In the mirror OF memory
We can see the image still
OF the winding pathway. the shadows deep.
And the old spring under the hill.

of the machine, together with the pat
ents on them, open good line for d
money making Investment.
The plant which is talked of for this
city will manufacture a machine in
vented by Mr.. Kent, resident of this
city. 1t has stood the test of hard us
age, having been seen upon our
streets for months in successful oper-
alton. Beside the manufacture of au-
tomobilee the plant will turn out pat
ent rims for carriage wheels, an auto
mobile burner and other parts Of the
machine which are protected by spec
ial patents and which have attracted
the attention of eastern automobile
makers 80 for that they have made
elaborate offers for the right to use
them. Beside the fact that there are
but two factories of any considerable
size in the United States, it is also
well to remember that there are no
automobile factories west of Buffalo,
and this factory starting now would
be first in the field and command all
the territory of the west. The factory
which is proposed for this place will
cost $4,000 for the building and ma
chinery. The plant proposed will be a
three story brick structure rs by $50
feet, employing from 100 to 300 men,
and furnishing a weekly pay roll of
from $1,000 to $4,000, all the men en-
ployed to come from Marietta, except
Is or 20 skilled workmen who will
have to be brought from the east. 1t
is proposed to capitalize the company
at 100000. Already favorable opin-
ions are secured from capitalists here
and elsewhere. The attorneys having
the matter in charge are Coen & Will

Twelve to Nothing.

The ball game at the Fair Ground
Tuesday afternoon was a ono sided
affair. The Syracuse boys in a nice
quiet orderly way did our fellows up
and there is no kick coming. The
cause of the disaster was as follows
Marietta Saints are too slow in the
field and not swift enough with the
bat aid were generally outplayed.
TIE result is IL TO 0. But Syracuse
can play ball and no mistake; but two
errors were made by Syracuse and
they we're small ones. The boys from
Syracuse claim the championship of
the Onio valley and they have good
prospects of maintaining their claim.
The Saints got barely three hits.
Syracuse complains that they did not
bat yesterday; it is to be hoped they
don't bat today either.
The batteries for the game yester-
day were Murphy and Buchanon for
the Saints and Reitemeire and GUM
ther for Syracuse. The batteries for
today are Mann and Williams and
Hart and Guinther.
The gamo yesterday was much en-
joyed by those who saw it, but hard
ly anybody saw it. If the sporting
public of Marietta expects to have a
first class team of ary kind it must be
supported, whether they play league
ball in the beginning or not. Then
the patrons have right to criticlse,
but to criticise when no support has
been given by you is unjust-in fact
YOU are attending to something that
you have nothing in or in other words
something that is none of your bust
ness. The crowd out at the game yes
terday was not large enough for a
corporal's guard. Under these condi-
tions the Saints do remarkably well
'rhe visiting team is composed of quiet
gentlemen, only fellows who do not
quite comprehend why spectators at a
Marietta ball game cannot keep back
from the lines where they interfere
with players.

AUTOMOBILE
Proposition Comes Before the
Board of Trade.

Marietta will be given an opportun-
ity tonight to start an industry in the
city which is rare and at the same
time abreast, the times. At the meet
ing of the Board of Trade this even
ing a proposition will be laid before
them, which il accepted, will start an
automobile factory in the city. This
is an industry that must pay, from the
simple fact that while the automobile
is of very recent date, 1t is beginning
to take the place of other carriages.
In France the government recognizes
the usefulness, practicability and pos
sibilities of this method OF travel and
is continually making tests and en-
couraging the improvement of the au-
tomobile Their practicability is
proven by the fact that regular lines
OF horseless carriages are operating
successfully in London and Paris,
France is we'll supplied with automo-
bIles. This country is just beginning
its experience with the automobile.
Already they are making their appear
ance in considerable numbers in the
eastern cities. But in this vast coun-
try there are just two factories of any
size manufacturing the automobile.
One Of these is at Buffalo and the
other in connecticut. There are other
factories, but they make perhaps one
a week.
The automobile is being developed
in this country and is coming into
every day practical use, The scarcity
