WASHINGTON, June 6.-Gomez
has informed the United States thru
American Minister Beaupre that he
is forming volunteer guard to pro-
tect foreign property, and asks that
his recent order for krag-Jorgenson
rifles be increased from 5000 to TO-
600, and that 1000, 900 cartridges ae-
company them.
WASHINGTON, June 6.-With four
American batteships steaming to-
ward Guantinamo, the force of ma
rines Immediately available for pro-
lection Of foreign rife and property
in Cuba is increased to more than
1900.
Altogether the battleships Mime.
sofa, Missouri, Mississippi and Ohio,
the fourth division Of the Atlantic
fleet, which put out from Key West
late yesterday under command Of
RearAdmiraI Usher, have on board
nearly 300 marines. These ships
should arrive at Guantanamo some
time tomorrow.
Crusier Prairie. which already has
landed $50 under command Of Colonel
Yucas, has about $50 on board. The
four battIeships Of the third division
Of the Atlantic fleet are still at Key
West with Rear Admiral Osterhaus
on the flagship Washington, have
nearly 1000 more marines, which
could be moved to Cuba in little
more than a day If the situation
should demand.
Roughly. this places the number OF
marines, Immediately available, at
about 1900, and the reserve force at
Key West at 1000. The combined
forces Of the blue jackets on all ships
which, however, would only be landed
in the most pressing emergency, cas-
lily would swell the total American
force available to more than $500
men. It is estimated 1000 marines
are fully equivalent to five times that
number Of regular Cuban soldiers.

 At this meeting the call for the state convention will be issued and date set for the holding of the republican prima- ries. Under the rule adopted by the last republican convention all of the republican primaries might be held on the same day.

A KITCHEN TIN SHOWER
Novel entertainment to Sur prise a Popular Young
 Couple.

A shower that was not forecasted nor bureau, Uncle Horace Johnson, nor any goosebone weather prophet, occurred last Friday afternoon. It was a strictly local shower, restricted in area, but it did lot of good and was mighty re- freshing on that hot day. It>was a "kitchen shower" and surprise party designed to still further impress Sam. G. Camp and his bride with sense of the high regard their friends have for them, and it was we'll conceived and carried out by it's projectors.
 A whist party was planned, to be held at the residence of Dr. and Mrs. Camp, parents of the groom, with whom the bridal couple are staying until their own home on Peirce avenue is ready for function the "shower' was arranged fer, unbeknowh to the benefciaries. The party assembled-a jolly and congenial company of young folks-and the whist game proceeded in the orthodox way until the award of prizes was in order ; then somebody brought in an immense wash basket full of things, ,and the bride, Mrs. May Camp, was delegated to un- load it. It was then that she had her first intimation of the real purpose of the whist" party. The basket con- talned an assortment of tinware and kitchen and table equipment that would fit out dealers showroom-and it was not all tin, by a jugful. The bride, though taken by surprise, was not non- plussed, and after she had reached the bottom of the basket and had the con- tents spread out Tn promiscuous array, she remarked. jocularly, that she was surprised, in the second place, that the guests had not brought their offerings to the house where they were to be used, The guests saw the point at once, and after refreshments each picked up the article she had contributed and started out and down the street to the future home oE Peirce Avenue, making @ fes- tive procession that might have been mistaken for a ladies' seminary moving out-orin in. And every contribution was on display in that parade some held up sugar spoons. others swung dishpans, coal scuttles and every other thing that will come in handy about the house, and the parade attracted not little aGmir- ing attention passing a given point.
 The affair was in every way gratify- ing success as well as a novel social function.

BIG DEMAND FOR LUMBER
Roberts Lumber Yard will be Stocked with Over 6OO,-
 900 Feet,

Charles F. Roberts new lumber yard, opposite the depot is gradually stocking up and assuming imposing proportions. Carloads of lumber are coming lu, as rapidly as they can be freighted through, from the North and West. and It is the intention of MT. Roberts to carry in stock we'll toward three, quarters of a million feet of various forms of building lumber, heavy timber and boards, mostly in the rough but including an ample stock of finished lumber, shingles, etc.
 More sheds will be built on the grounds for the housing the better grades of lumber, and MT. Roberts will soon establish an office in the village, He spends most of his time at present travelling and selling lumber, and reports an active market, though prices are at top notch. One reason why lumber is high at the present time, MT. Roberts says, is that the producers and big dealers thought there would be very limited building operations this season, and failed to cut and provide an ad- equate amount of stock, but building has been unusually active, making an unexpected demaud for lumber and naturally showing the price upward
 Here in town there has been no build ing to speak of, and none is in immedi- ate prospect. but in Falls Village, Twin Lakes and other neighboring places, building has been comparatively good.
 Mir. Roberts handles not only the Northern and Western lumbers, but practically all produced in this section. The work of cutting off and saving the wood on Church Hill has been suspend ed, at least for this season. The lumber cut from that spot totalled about 368, ,O00 feet, all of which found waiting mar ket. It is likely that the work of lumber. ing on Church Hill will be resumed next winter.

SIMPSON KIDS BUSY DAY Kept His Folks in the Anxious Seat at Ives Twin Lakes
 Cottage.

MT. and Mrs. George Simpson and two children, of New York, spent the Fourth with MT. and Mrs. H. B. Ives at their Twin Lakes cottage. It was great day for the Simpson especially the elder, boy SIX years old, who let himself loose for a memorable celebra- tion of the great and glorious day. He started the day by 'shooting his head off," according to MT. Ives version, with big f1recracker. Papa Simpson, how ever. mildly maintained that it was not quite so bad as that, but that the young ster shot nothing but hand off. The alleged victim, himself, jeopardized the yeracity of both by stoutly declaring, and sticking to it, that "it never hurt me bit," and it must be confessed that the weight of evidence seemed to be with the boy, for he distinguished him self later in the day by venturing out to the end of the Ives dock and falling headlong into the lake, to be fshed out by a hastily improvised rescue party consisting of the heads of the Ives and Simpson families, who maintained their temporary organization as life-saving corps during the rest of the day, and patrolled the beach in relays all the time the youngster was out-of-d doors.

Our Statesmen Ag'in' it.

Representative Ebenezer Hill of Con- necticut, 8 republican member of the House ways and means committee, made the following comment on the national progressive platform Monday.
 "The Ten Commandments as a whole would make mighty good platform for any party, but Dixon ought not to stop with one of them. In view of the pro gressive platform being given out Sun day, wonld suggest that they at least add Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy and also for the benefit of the prospective candidates, Thou shalt not covet anything that is thy nelghbor's and finally, for the benefit of Dixon him. self, he should add, Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. '
 Senator BrandeRee said: "The third party movement is unnecessary, uncalled for and unfortunate, for both the party and for Colonel Roosevelt, for whom the party has done so much.'
 Representative Tilson said: "There is no place for a third party, no demand for it. There is nothing that it proposes that cannot better be done by either one or the other of the present old parties. "
