at ~ cents per pound were not ap-
gearing before the committee to give
information about the theapness Of
manufacturing beet sugar. He said
that % per cent Of the sugar beets
produced in this country is raised by
Asiatic labor. That the American Su.
gar Refining Company, or his own
company. needs no tariff protection,
was asserted by Spreckels. He ad
mitted that he had bought sugar lands
in Cuba as speculation, hoping that
the island would some time become
annexed to the United States and that
as result the value of those lands
would be doubled.

LANCASTER INVADED
AND CHARMED.

Last week Lancaster county was in
vaded, made captive and carried off in
chains by the most pleasant invasion it
has had for some time. Coming from
that old city by the sea-gates- Ports
mouth, quintette of sweet singers
made their appearance in Irvington on
Thursday last, were towed over to Kill
marnock by sundry teams, accompanied
by an escort of Irvington braves and
ladies', and sang as only Portsmouth
ladies can sing, all for the benefit of
Lancaster's Confederate Choir and peo-
pie. Mrs. j. Griff Edwards was the
leading lady," to use that theatrical
phrase, and as to her singing, the
CITIZEN has no tune-words to tell of it.
Everybody capable of judging said it
was charming. betwitching, ensnaring,
and, in short, captivating. The chief
regret felt seemed to be that she could
not be persuaded to stay here and sing
always. There were others who sang,
sang well and beautifully, besides Mrs.
Edwards and the Lancaster choir, and
they were Mrs. S. w. Harris, Misses
Jane Nicely, Louise Wilson and Matte
Hunter, all of Portsmouth, and Mrs.
Stehman Forney of Irvington. The
crowded houses both at Kilmarnock and
Irvington were kept in state of delight
bordering on ecstacy during the entire
performances. They also sang at the
fair Friday. Mrs. Edwards in her
speciality of Dixie" Mrs. Harris in
new coon songs, Miss Nicely as an old
maid, Miss Wilson in ''Smarty Cat, I"
Mrs. Forney in ''Ben Bolt" and Miss
Hunter at the piano made telling hits,
and were generously encored.
Areporter who accompanied the party
back to their homes in Portsmouth
states that the ladies of the visiting
party seemed as greatly charmed with
1rvington and its vicinage as were "our
folks" with them, and indeed it is
rumored that some of the single ladies'
of the party slyly limited that they
wouldn't object to coming back early
and often. The following programme
was rendered by the concerning party:

STEAMER GOULDMAN BURNED.

Steamer Mabel w. Gouldman, be-
longing to the Wheaton Packing Co.,
of Whealton, Va, was burned on Satur
day night about nine O'Clock. Fire
originated in the engine room and
gained such rapid Roadway that it was
impossible to save anything. She was
pulled from Wheaton wharf, where she
was moored at the time, and after burn
ing TO the waters edge, went down in
deep water. The Gouldman was charter
ed by the Business Mems Association of
Fredericksburg, to which city she made
two trips a week from Wheaton, and
had just completed nice saloon and
other comforts for the passengers.
There was small insurance on the boat.
1t is thought another boat will be put
on the route as soon as arrangements
can be made.
