Chinese Burial.

Yesterday Chinese funeral was an
attraction, as it has been some time
since this city was enlivened by q
real Celestial funeral. The dead party
was the late Mrs Quong, the mother
OF the boys that attended the public

ranked high in the josh the funeral
had all the trimmings that go along

Several times the ou~tbuildingS IN the
Frazier farm were on fire, but were ex-
tinguished by the fighters. The farm
house and buildings on the Moore
farm were destroyed. The fire next
entered the Post and Water Power

down toward Nays Landing on both
sides of the Weymouth road. The
flames would shoot fully sixty feet
above the trees and catch a hundred
yards ahead, which could be heard
roaring a half-mile away. Another
branch of the fire rushed madly toward

CUBAN DELEGATES REPORT
Urged the Constitutional Convention
to Adopt the Plat Amendment
OUR POLICY OF INTERVENTION

The Report Stated That the United States
Would Not Intervene Unless Cuba We're
Attacked By a Foreign Power-Presl-
dents Plan For Fixing Commercial Re
lations-Report Made Good Impression.
Havana, Cuba.-The Special Com
mission of the Cuban Constitutional
| Convention, which visited Washington,
presented to the convention an extern
sive report of its conferences with
President Mckinley and Secretary
Root, and a glowing account of the
banQuets and receptions rendered to It,.
Senior Giberga objected to incorporat-
ing an account of the social pro-
gramme ia the report, but the commits
sion insisted upon this point.
In reference to the third clause of
the Plat amendment, the report stated
that the United States would not in
tervene unless Cuba were attacked by
a foreign power, or unless there *
listed in Cuba a condition of affairs
| similar to that which existed under
| Spain at the time of American inter-
vention.
Regarding coaling stations, the re
port set forth that the places so de-
sired by the United States were Capes
Maisi and San Antonio and another
point commanding the entrance to the
Gulf of Mexico; that these would be
definitely determined upon when draw
ing up the treaty, and that the object
80 4I,,a, Etoyinne would no tb, p,Di,
tenance of the independence of Cuba
as well as the protection Of the United
States.
The report also said that the United
States would in no way interfere in
the local government, and that Presi-
dent Mckinley had promised to APP
point a commission to meet a Cuban
commission to discuss the economic
question and to draw up a commercial
treaty as soon as the republic was es-
tablished. Mr.. Mckinley advised the
Cubans in the meantime to study the
situation in this respect. The report
announced that Secretary Root said
there was nothing in the Plat amend
ment to prevent Cuba having diplo-
matte representatives ia foreign u
tries.
The report has evidently made a
good impression, ard only a few Radi-
Gals will continue to oppose the &C
ceptance of the Plat amendment.
Senior N%illuenda, in an open letter
declaring his intention to accept the
amendment, says he first thought that,
If the convention rejected the amend
ment, Washington might change its
policy, as he then believed the amend
ment was the work Of a party.
Il now believe says Senior Villuen-
da, that the amendment is the work
Of the Nation. There is no use in OBJ
jecting to the inevitable. 1t is either
annexation or a republic with the
amendment. and l prefer the latter.
The United States Government, by in
sisting upon the amendment, shows
that the Americans have changed from
their policy before the war, and that
they no longer rely upon the Monroe
doctrine to protect the interests of
American republics

farmer m in a little later with a
pail of skinned milk, straddles the
calf's neck, inserts his finger in it's
mouth and tries to convince 1t that
drinking is the proper method of feed

would the farmer be If he did not
have to waste his time In teaching
the calf to drink. The calf seems to
get along fairly well until the farmer
undertakes TO withdraw his finger and
make the calf go it alone, but then
rebellion rises and an upset pail is
the result in some cases. Once intro
duce the calf to this device and he
may bunt to his hearts content with
out upsetting the milk. The arrange
ment consists of a reservoir, suspend.
ed from the wall, with a tube leading
to a block underneath. on which is
mounted a rubber nipple. AS the
nipple is screwed on the block it may
be removed as soon as the feeding is
finished, or the entire feeder can be
taken down If desired. Henry B.

Hundreds of owners of cows Judge
of the merits of the animals by the
quantity of milk given. While guam
tity is not to be objected to, yet the
value of a dairy COW depends upon
quality as well as quantity. The low
per cent. of solids and butter fat
should condemn milk that, although
pure, does not come up to the standard
required. There are, however, cows
that give large quantities of rich milk,
but begin to fall off in a few months
after coming in. The cows that have
long periods of milking, and which
prove themselves meritorious, should
be kept to produce future mixers, the

Steel bridge building has become a
colossal industry in the United States.
The country now contains 10000
miles of railway, and it is estimated
that there is an average of n span
of metallic bridge to every three miles
of track, or 63,000 bridges on existing
lines. An increase of weight in ears
and locomotives during recent times
has made it necessary to renew all of
the old bridges with stronger and
heavier ones. Thus independent of
new bridges to be constructed for new
railroads 63,000 new bridges must be
made as substitutes for those which
were originally erected.

City people of a wakeful turn who

that comes from Indianapolis; "A
dairyman went to the Hoosier capital
for treatment, and while there, lying
in bed, was greatly annoyed by being
awakened each morning by the Aaan
delivering milk. AS soon as he got well
he had the milkmen shod with rubber
heeled and rubber soled shoes, n
rubber tires put on all his wagons. He
presented each customer with a rubber
mat upon which to set the milk can by
the door, had his horses shod with
rubber shoes and then began to ex-
plot his noiseless milk, HiS business
has quadrupled," Hooray for Noise

daughter stood behind the mother AMI
she, too, saw the death. Bird was

Old age had made him so deaf that
even the roar of an express train was
silence to him. He lived for years
with his wife and his youngest daugh-
ter in a cottage near the tracks which
bisect the village of Clayton. He
started for the village, choosing the
short way of the railroad ties. His
wife and daughter Went to the door,

just then the train came around a

in alarm. But he heard neither the
cries nor the roar and walked on Sc
renely until the train cut him down.

DON'T Gross Pure-Bred Fowls.

One of the gravest mistakes made by
those who keep pure-bred fowls is the
crossing of the breed. 1t seems to be
q general. desire on the part Of many
to cross the breeds because Of the sup
position that the good qualities of two
breeds may be combined in one. The
fact is that the qualities of both breeds
are thus destroyed. Nothing is gained
when Leghorns and Brahmas are
| crossed, as the hardness of the Brah-
ma is sacrificed, as well as its size,
while the prOlificacy and non-setting
instinct of the Leghorn are obliterated.
All breeds are the results of judicious
crossing in the first place, and years
are required to improve them. Those
who cross their breeds soon find their
yards containing only scrubs.

Wolves are increasing rapidly in the
forest lands of Northern Canada. This
is said to be due to the large increase
in the herds of deer throughout the
country. AS these have grown in
number, so have the wolves that live
upon them. Fleeing from the ravages
of the wolves, the deer have made
their way toward the settled parts of
the country, until in many places they
have become a nuisance to farmers, in
whose fields of oats and other grain
they often do considerable damage.
