Blaze at Bettendorf Destroys Building
and contents-Loss $4,000.
Davenport, Sept. 1.-THE Meteor
Automobile Company's plant at Betten-
dorf was almost totally destroyed by
fire yesterday, entailing a loss to the
company and the owner of the building,
variously estimated at something like
$4,000 or 100000. The officers of the
company could give no accurate esti-
mate of the loss yesterday, as they are
engaged in going over the debris and
wreckage carefully to ascertain what
materials may be available.
Six big new touring cars, which were
completed and ready for delivery were
burned, all the expensive auto ma
chinery was wrecked, and the whole of
the factory building was burned, leav-

building at the front

Pineapple Poison for Krises.

w. w. Leggett of Company c, Corps
of Engineers, who is passing through
on the Logan, states that the Moros,
or more particularly the proving bands
of ladrones who make sudden night at
taeks on outposts, are poisoning their
krises with the juice of the pineapple.
They thrust the blade through pine
apple and allow the juice TO dry upon
it. The prick of the blade or slash
from it, Leggett says, produces gan
creme which is fatal in most eases. As
far as known there no remedy, except
the drastic one of excision. Mr.. Leg
gett, on hearing what pineapple coun,
try Hawaii is, suggested that due care
should be taken by householders to pre-
vent pineapple juice from drying upon

day who cheerfully volunteered their
services in the war with Spain.
AS the veterans of the Republic
pass from the field Of action, and
march on to pitch their tents by the
side of the comrades gone before,
citizens of later generation can have
no greater incentive to duty than the
inspiring story of their self-sacrificing
devotion to country, and the proud
record of their achievements. Well
may they cherish the hope that they
may in turn be permitted to transmit
to those who come after them a
country as great. as progressive, as
prosperous as the one received from
these veterans-a country whose way

whose flag will float as proudly on

The Zubelinkus.

The Journal is in receipt of the fol-
lowing communications:
Dear Mr.. Editor:
What the Dickens is Zubelinkus?
Yours,
A Constant Subscriber.
Editor Kennebec Journal;
Will you kindly inform me where l
can find a more detailed account of
the Zubelinkus and oblige,
A Lifelong Reader.
We are panied at the ignorance of
natural history exhibited by these in
quiries. That anybody. in this day
and generation should be unfamiliar
with that noble animal. the Zubelin-
kus, is indeed amazing. To be sure
he is a retiring and modest animal
albeit of an affectionate nature-and
prefers to live in the inaccessible re-
treats of the African Jungle rather
than intrude himself upon cold and
unappreciative public. There subsist-
ing for the most part upon wild yams
and yumic roots. he has long led quiet
and inoffensive life. keeping himself
in closely sympathetic touch with the
great heart of Nature. 1t is to be
doubted if the Zubelinkus ever saw the
face Of a white man, and it is to be
presumed that his OCCASIONAL glimpses
of the natives who inhabit those wilds
must be of the most feeting and tran
STORY character. Nevertheless, the
Zubeinkus is believed to he a pecul-
larry joyous and frisky animal within
the somewhat narrow confines of it's
own social circle. 1t is needless to say
that a Zubelinkus would be a great
addition to any American Geological
garden. and while as yet. so far as
we know. there has never been one in
captivity, we feel that Ex-President
Roosevelt can be depended upon to
secure one at all hazards. When he
has done so it will unquestionably be
conceded to be the browning achieve
ment of his African Expedition.

VII. More Legends; Heidelberg to stFassbura

1t seemed a pity to waste any of
the Rhine trip in eating, yet when
twelve O'Clock came we found that we
could not exist entirely on the seen
cry. But the Germans had kindly ar
ranged the dining room with SO many
windows that hardly an object escaped
us between courses.
1t was a good dinner that we had on
that steamer for the equivalent of
seventy-five cents, and If the price had
rested there all would have been sat
isfied. but just before the dessert was
brought on, the waiter came to us and
said my tip, madame" Not only that
but he specified what it should be. ask
ing One-third of what the dinner cost.
We should probably have paid it had
not some Germans who had been lis
tening to the conversation spoken to
me across the table, and told me the
customary sum. The waiter was de-
termined somehow to get that extra
money. Just at the close of the meal
he brought around some ice-cream. and
then when all the Americans had fall
len into the trap and had accepted
those few spoonfuls of yellowish stuff,
