TO REPRODUCE SEA BATTLE.
Hobson and schIey Will Repeat Feats
at Seattle Exposition with Per-
mission of Government.

Seattle, Wash.-The government
finally has consented to reproduc-
ton of the battle of Santiago, at the
Alaska-Y ukon-Pacific exposition in
Seattle, in which Admiral Winfield
9. Sch!ey and Congressman Richard
Pearson Hobson will re-enact the parts
they took. The date has been set for
Friday, July 2, which comes in grand
military carnival week, when the
United States army will hold its mid
summer maneuvers for the division of
the army west of Denver, aided by
state troops from the northwest and
military attaches of foreign govern
ments.
The reproduction of the battle will
take place in Lake Washington, which
connects with Puget sound and affords
every natural advantage for the por-
trayal Of the famous conflict. Lake
Washington skirts the exposition
grounds, and the neck of the channel
that leads to the sound will be
blocked with wooden craft In the man
ner in which Hobson prevented the
escape Of the Spanish feet from San
tiago.
Admiral Schley will command the
improvised fleet, which will consist of
ten government gunboats that are to
be attached to the exposition through
out the summer, and personally take
charge of the maneuvers.

GYMNAsTICPlGs STAYED LEAN
Springfield (Mo.) Farmer Learns Why
His Swine Don't Fatten After
Long Feeding.

Springfield, Mo.-John Harwood, q
farmer. four miles south of here, has
been worried for long time about a
bunch of hogs he has been feeding for
the market. After feeding them on corn
for three months he could see no sign
of the porkers fattening.
HARDWOOD became alarmed lest some
disease had broken out among them.
He learned that none of his neighbors'
stock was showing signs of poor
health.
1t was only the other night that he
solved the puzzle. CHANGING to pass
the pig lot, he saw the porkers per-
forming some sort of gymnastic exer-
else. A white hog, the scrawniest in
the bunch, apparently was instructing
the rest of the swine in a rude sort of
exercise which would keep any hog
from getting fat.
Harwood watched the pigs for some
time. not realizing at first there was a
systematic effort in the evolutions.
He decided to separate the white pig
from the others in the hope that the
bunch would put on some fat from the
corn diet

A WONDERFUL BUSINESS.
Great Demand for Tornado
Insurance.

From Des Moines Daily News, May 6.
The month of April was busy month
with the Iowa Mutual Tornado Insur-
ance association of this city. They
wrote 81, 800, 900 in risks and made
gain in new business of nearly 81, 000,-
600 and now have over $l35, 900, 600 in
risks; paid nearly 1900 in losses and
have on hand April so, $l33. s75. 90 with
which to meet future losses. The storm
of April 10Th caused the association
over 300 losses, amounting to about
SIS, 900. These losses are all in pro-
gress of adjustment and viii be paid as
soon as it is possible to attend to so
many.
There was tornado during April in
sixteen counties in Iowa, and more or
less destructive wind storm in many
fore counties.
The association is doing wonderful
business. While last year was record
breaker for business, the secretary has
received about 700 more applications
than up to April Both last year. Over
200 applications were received each day
for the first five day in May. The as
sociation is becoming popular as its
cheapness, reliability and manner of
business becomes better known. This
is purely cooperative association and
no one deserves any sympathy who
meets with loss without insurance
when it can be had at so small cost as
this association. This is the associa-
ton that co-operates with the county
mutuals. This is the association of
which N. Densmore is president and j.
B. Herman is secretary.

INDOOR TARGET PRACTICE
United States Soldiers May Now Die
pense with Use Of the
Rifle Range.

MISUNDERSTANDING in marks.
manship on the part of the enlisted
men of the army is sought by the mill
tary authorities, and to this end, after
thorough test made by the board of
ordnance and fertilization of the war
department, 1t has been decided to
use the sub-target gun machine and
recording rifle rod outfits in the train
Ing of soldiers in the use of small
arms.
Maj. Gen. j. Franklin Bell, chief of
staff, has issued circular to the serv-
ice stating that the ordnance depart
ment will issue on requisition one sub
target gun machine to each squadron
of cavalry and battalion of infantry,
and not to exceed ten recording rifle
rod outfits for small arms sighting and
aiming instruction to each troop of
cavalry and to each company of infan-
try. coast artillery, engineers and sig
nal corps.
About $4,000 has been spent by the
department for this apparatus. With
the sub-target rifle machine soldiers
may practice shooting indoors with
out the rifle range and without the use
of shells. The machine may be de-
secribed as rifle with captive bull
let, the course of which from rifle to
target is visible. The objective target
is located 60 feet from the marksman.
The gun holder is SO constructed
that 1t is impossible to secure point
of rest with which to steady the gun
in aiming. The rifle is held. aimed and
discharged in the ordinary way. No
ammunition is used and all danger
from accident is eliminated. A needle
pierces a small subtarget in the exact
spot aimed at on the objective target.
