usually far too faint TO be seen with the
eve, and when faintest is only visible IN
the very largest telescopes. During the
first part of July it will probably become
as bright the stars at - ana T.. hgure
1; it will remain thus bright FOR a week
OF two, and then very rapidly fade away.
What there is happening on these gredt
suns to make them blaze out with such
wonderful brightness at nearly regular IN
tervals is wholly unknoWn. re-
markable that nearly half of all the yari-
able stars OF the heavens behave nearly
as these two stars do. and the interval
with nearly all of them is not far from
one year.
There are two interesting shooting-star
showers which occur during July, be
sides many faint ones. Any one of the
dark, moonless evenings near the 18TH
of the month the careful observer will
see an occasional faint, blush meteorite
dart out from a point in the Northern
Cross near the star F. figure ], move
quickly very short distance over the
sky and then disappear. This is rant,
but a very interesting shower. very
much brighter one occurs toward the
close of the month. but this cannot be
well observed before midnight. The stars
of this shower move outward in all d.
rections from the star Delta, near the
east end of AGuarfus, and pass slowly
across the sky sometimes leaving tran
behind them. These stars are bright and
of a yellowish color.
The shooting stars of any shower are
nothing but little meteoric particles which
are streaming along in great elliptic
nath around the sun When our earth in
its motion of more than eighteen miles a
second collides with such stream each
particle is burned up by It's friction with
our air, and so appears to us as bright
swiftly moving, starlike object. The rea-
son why the stars Of the shower of July

its butter making qualities. In tho
orient. especially in Syria, goats butter
is frequently, though not extensively
used. IL Is served to American ana Eu-
ropean travellers there. and they find II
very disagreeable. The reason Tor this.
however. is largely due 10 the way in
which ii is made. As the cream rises
slowly the milk Is allowed TO stand
long time and becomes sour before the
churning, and no care is exercised In
Keeping II pure and clean When mace
under sanitary conditions Its taste Is
pleasant and il Is soft and white, but IL
is generally considered to be inferior TO
cows butter.
Goats can be raised to advantage In
practically every section OF the United
States IL Is believed. They require G.
dry soil and thrive better in a high. dry
climate but these are not essentials by,
any means. They eat almost anything
and are very inexpensive to keep on that
account. What Is more, the goat Is .
very hardy animal. although he must
have something to eat besides colored
posters and tin cans in order to keep him
from starving to death. The average
length of life of goat Is twelve years.
Mich goats are very hard to purchase
In this country, not because they ar0
high priced, but because ii Is dimcuit 10
find them. Thousands Of inquiries haver
reached the bureau of animal industry In
the last few years on this question and
no definite reply has been given In most
instances the seekers have been referred,
to the suburbs Of large cities. This Is the
reason that the government Is taking
such a lively interest I'm the question.
1t is determined that in a few years
there will be places where mich goats
may be had when they are needed or ds-a
sired.
THE American goat is the name
which has been suggested for the brand
that IL Is proposed to develop by selec-
ton from the so-called common goats OF
this country. Where these goats came
from in the first place is not known, but,
as most of them are found In the SOUTH
ern states II is supposed by some people
that they were originally brought over
by the Spanish settlers. Ii Is known
that among these common goats there
are often found some excellent mixers.
Some of these good mixers are said to
have been brought over as young kids I'm
baskets by Italian immigrants. Others
are said to have come from Bermuda
1t Is these good mixers that are be-
American breed. The best mixers of ev-
cry generation are to be bred again. in
the expectation that the milking quail
ties will'be transmitted and accentuated
until a real good thoroughbred American
mixer will have been evolved.

THE MAINE AND
THE WAR WITH SPAIN

On the supposition that the full
exposure of the wreck of the
Maine in Havannah harbor show
that it vas destroyed by an
internal explosion, a great many
newspapers are assuming that the
destruction Of the Maine caused the
declaration by our congress of
war against Spain. in retaliation
and that the proof that the
destruction Of the ship and the
lives of tire brave men that went
down to daath in her, was not the
fault of tie Spaniards at all, is
great humiliation 10 US and that it
should be a lesson to us not to be
carried away in a fit of passion
over a supposed wrong.
All of which seems quite I'M
necessary The destruction Of the
Maine may have FASTENED the
declaration though it was many
weeks after the ship was destroyed
before the declaration care, but
people forget trat even before
President Cleveland's term of
office expired he was strongly
disposed to interfere in Cuban
affairs ard declared that if the
outrages there being perpetrated,
were not soon stopped, to interpose
w0ul.' be the duty of the United
States.
The then Captain had set to
work to destroy all who where in
arms agai lst Spanish authority and
to starve % death the old men and
women; aud the children Of those
who sympathized with the insur-
rectos; that when they found tens
Of thousi nds Of thoHe starving
wretches whom they had to feed
and nurse to health. And almost
as bruta' as SPANS rule in the
Philippine. The truth is. our
governme Mt had been trying for a
year and n half To avoid a war
with Spain and had tecn urging
that cOun ry to stop The atrocities
in Cuba. But Spain was not only
indifferen: but was I'll the time
almost inpertinent. She be-
lieved thrt in case Of war her feet
could sinh ours, and that if any of
our forcfs landed ir Cuba she
could tire 1T them as she treated

The entire uDselisl.hess Of the
United s ates was made clear by
the pledge which congress made
when the declaration was ISSUED,
guarantee ing Cuba. in case of the
success Of our arms. to The Cuban
people, which promise WAS full
filled, just as soon as order could
