Three ways are used by farmers
for curing and preparing their to-
bacco for the market; namely sun
cured, air cured and fue cured.
The old and cheap way is called air
cured; the later discovery and i'm
proved way is called fue cured.
In hue curing the tobacco is taken
from the fields and racked in barns
especially built to retain heat and
there subjected to a continuous high
temperature, produced by the direct
heat of flame heated flues, which
brings out in the tobacco that

to- both tobacco and coffee the cheer

black dot had suddenly popped into view out of some friendly, winding
 watercourse, four miles still away, at
 least count, and far to the right and front of Blake's easternmost trooper.
 Every glass was instantly brought to bear upon the swiftly coming ri- der, Sandy's shrill young voice ring ing out from the upper window. Tt isn't one of papa's men. His horse is gray!" Who then could it be? and what could it mean, this coming of strange courier from a direction so far to the east of the travelled road? Another moment and up rose another shout. ~Lookl"- There they are!" Sioux for certain!" And from be- hind little knob or knoll on the meridian ridge three other black dots had swept into view and were shoot ing eastward down the gradual slope. Another moment and they were swal- lowed up behind still another low divide, but in that moment they had seen and been seen by the western most of Blake's men, and now, one after another, as the signals swept from the left, the seven swerved. Their line of direction had been west of north. Now, riding like mad, they veered to the northeast, and 8 grand race was on between the hidden three and the would-be rescuers-all head ing for the low-rolling prairie where the lone courier might next be ex- pected to come into view-friends and foes alike, unconscious of the fact that, following one of those crooked arroyos with it's stiff and precipitous banks, he had been turned from his true course full three-quarters of a mile, and now, with longer run, but a clear field ahead, was steering straight for Frayne.

Ray. Even his befud- dled senses could fathom that! And while the guards and nurses bore the patient, shrieking and struggling, back to the hospital, Kennedy soused his hot head in the cooling waters of their frontier lavatory and was off like shot to the stables.
 It was long before he found his horse, for the guard had taken Kill maine to 'F' troops stables, and Kennedy had been housed by "K." Itwas longer still before he could per- suade the guard that he "had right" as he put 1t, to ride after the major. Not until Capt. Dade had been con suited would they let him go. Not, indeed, until in person Kennedy had pleaded his cause with that cool-head- ed commander.

The public is not interested in Mr.

more than it would be interested in
Mr.. Bryan's views concerning MI
Sullivan were Mr.. Bryan to deal with
Mr.. SuIlivan's personality. Mr.. Sulli-

Office by virtue of unfair methods.
This matter was presented to the st.

would have convinced the convention

presidential candidate whom they
were pledged to support Mr..
Sullivan disputes the assertion that
a considerable majority of the dele
gates to the Springfield convention
were opposed to him. he can fight the
question out with the Majority Lea
que of Illinois, which will doubtless
accommodate him.
AS Mr.. Bryan has not asked for a
nomination and has not announced
that he will be a candidate, he will
not submit the question whether he
should be candidate to Mr.. Sullivan
or to any body of persons less nu-
merous than the members of the
Democratic party of the United

whether Mr.. Sullivan should be re-

Milwaukee, Sept. 13.-One half of
the plant of the Cudahy Bros. Pack
ing Co. of Cudahy, Wis, was des-
troyed tonight. Five million pounds
of lard were rendered unfit for mar
keting; $500 hides and 1000 sheep
pelts were burned and 100 head of
cattle were lost in fire starting
from an explosion at 6 O'Clock to-
night At 1890 Patrick Cudahy,
President of the company estimated
that the loss would be 100000, fully
covered by insurance.
The valient efforts on the part of
the Milwaukee fire department which
was hurried to the scene stayed the
progress of the flames, and prevented
the destruction of the entire plant.
The building destroyed contained
the most important part of the plant
and nearly 1000 men will be thrown
out of employment, until the building
can be rebuilt, the work of which

with President Roosevelt over what
part this country is TO play in the Gu

cannot proceed with too great caution
in the present circumstances.
Although warships have been de-
spatched to Cuba they have been
sent merely to safeguard American
interests. The president wants to
be perfectly convinced of the status
of the insurgents, and of the exact sit
uation which exists in the island be-
fore committing the United States to
a program from which it would after
wards be impossible to retreat.

Havana. SEPT l2.-Insurgents in
overwhelming numbers are adTanc-
ing on the capital from the south and
west, and it is expected an attack viii
be made. That President Palma S
government is doomed is the general
opinion. The arrival Of the United
States cruiser Denver in the harbor
has FASTENED the crisis. Instead of as
sisting Palma it is believed it viii be
his undoing. The cruiser may be able
TO offer Palma q place of refuge, how
ever, and it is believed this was one
Of the purposes in dispatching it here.
Intervention by the United States is
now regarded as the only logical out
come of the struggle. The insurgents
must capture this city before the
United States government acts. That
is why the insurgent armies are rush
ing toward the capital. Sixteen miles
to the south General Castillo and Col
onel Castillo and Colonel Asbert are
encamped with 5000 insurgents. In
the west General Pine Guerra, By bril-
liant tactics, has left Colonel Avalos
commanding the only government
force of lighting strength, stranded
near Consolation Del Sur, and is
marching on the capital.
The railroad has been blown up be-
tween Consolation and this city. The
bridges have also been destroyed.
Avalos can not get back to the capital,
while miles to the eastward Guerra,
with his entire army, is hurrying to-
ward this city to make junction
with Asbert and Castillo. With Cas-
tillo's army is Alfredo Zayas, leader
of the Liberal party.
It is the plan of the insurgents on
capturing the capital to set up pro-
visional government with Zayas as
president They will then demand
that if the United States intervenes
it shall deal with Zayas rather than
the deposed Palma.
Cienfuegos is threatened with cap
ture by the insurgents. Orestes Fer
rera has sent word to the city to re-
move the Jomen and children, as he
intends to attack the place. Cienfue-
Cos is the port to which the Marietta
has been ordered When the warship
steams into the harbor the insurgents
wish to be in control of the city. They
believe this will help their cause ma
terially.
