ERE Al UPTON.

The farm buildings of Mr.. Horatio
Chase of Upton were struck by light
ming during the heavy thunder shower of
Sunday night, the 10th, and burned to
the ground. Mr.. Chase had just finish
ed a new barn this fall, costing over
$1,000. Four cows, sheep and hens were
burned. The barn was full of hay and
grain, and nothing was saved from the
barn but three horses. The people OF
Upton were on hand to render assistance,
but nothing could be done to save the
buildings. Nearly all of the household
goods were saved by the timely help OF
neighbors. Mr.. Chase was quite badly
hurt by the explosion of dynamite whioe
was in the barn at the time of the fire
He went to bring it out of the barn, and
by some means it exploded, knocking
Mr.. Chase nearly Is feet, but it is hoped
nothing serious will result. 1t was &
total loss, there being no insurance Oh
the buildings.

REAR ADMIRAL SAMPSON died at his
home in Washington last Tuesday of
cerebral hemorrhage and softening OF
the brain, sad ending for the man
who was so conspicuous in the growth
of the modern navy and it's glorious
achievements. Sampson will be &C.
corded his place in history and he
will rank with the great. naval com
manders of our country. By his alb
sence at the naval battle of Santiago
he was robbed of a glorious opportu-
nifty of achieving fame. He had gone
on his flagship New York four miles
east of the harbor wherein was locked
Admiral Cevera, to meet Gen. Shafter,
and at that time Schley was on the
Brooklyn two miles west of the harbor
and right in line for the attack when
the Spanish feet came out. Thus it
was that the positions of these two
vessels at that time. sealed the fate of
the two admirals. For Schley it meant
glory and fame, for Sampson bitterness
and regret. Sampson was in command
of the squadron and had planned the
blockade, and technically was entitled
to the honor of the victory, but it was
luck that gave the glory to schley.
There was glory enough for all in the
great victory, but the personality Of
the two admirals had much to do in
shaping public sentiment.

IN giving his testimony before the
senate committee that is Investigating
the sugar status in Cuba, President
Havemeyer of the American Sugar
Refining Co., or what is commonly
termed the sugar trust, made the state
.ment that the sugar crop of Cuba
amounts to about 100000 tons, and of
this his company has so far purchased
$4,000 tons, or something over one-half
OF the amount the trust usually pur-
chases in Cuba. In other words Mr..
Havemeyer states that the sugar trust
consumes about one~ffth of the sugar
crop of Cuba. The purchases have been
limited because of the possible reduc-
ton in the tariff. The sugar that the
trust has so far purchased in Cuba is
only about three-fourths of month 8
