PRESERVING FOODS.
Seat Methods Of Keeping Them Frem
Decay.

Beat Methods of Keeping Them From
Decay.
Juicy foods. such as vegetables.
fruits and meats. spoil very quickly
when left In the open air, especially
In summer time. The decay of such
foods is the result of the action OF
micro-organisms which are always
present in the air and hence infect
any food material which is open TO It,
These heterogeneous. commonly
known as bacteria" germs" or mi
erobes," are all alike In that In or
der TO grow and so produce the de-
cay OF the food with which they may
be in contact they must have mois-
ture. the proper temperature and plenty
OF air and must not be in contact with
certain chemicals which hinder their
growth and are known as antiseptics
or preservatives.
Drying is the easiest and most eff
Gent method Of preserving food from
decay. but the necessary heat TO dry
the material rapidly usually partially
cooks the food and SO changes its
tiavor. But thoroughly dried foods viii
keep indefinitely II kept from getting
damp
The next most efficient means of
preservation is to exclude the air In
canning fruits and vegetables. Heat
Ing the material before it is sealed up
does two thing-Ql kills most Of the
bacteria which are In the food and
ca drives out the air from it. so that
when the can is sealed up air tight
any bacteria which may not be killed
by the heat cannot grow because they
have no air.
The use OF chemical preservatives,
except such harmless ones as salt. sug
ar or the products in wood smoke, b
because any chemical 1
which win prevent fermentation win
almost certainly hinder digestion
Moreover. foods which have been prop l
erly heated and then carefully sealed 4
do not need added preservatives to !
keep them from spoiling-R. w.

Seth M. Kelley, farmer residing
three miles east of Greer. attempted
suicide at about midnight Sunday
night by shooting himself with a
small calliber rife. The bullet en-
tered just above the right nipple and
passed to the outside of the heart
and came out on the back. The at
tending physicians think Kelley will
recover unless complications set in.
Kelley has a family and has been ia
Ill health for some time. It had
been noticeable for several days prior
to the rash deed that he seemed de-
spondent.

WEST CORNWALL

The concert last week given by the Hartford Seminary Quartette was cer- tainly a treat. There were two things which marred perfect success. The rain made it impossible for good many to enjoy the generosity of the Scoville Memorial Association although there was fairly good audience considering the weather. The other trouble was piano so out of tune that it obliged the quartette to re-arrange their pro- gram and give only such music as they could sing without accompaniment. The recitations were fine: two of the selection being poems by Alfred Moves.

Fighting About Ceased

GALVESTON, May 13.-Advices from Vera Cruz tonight state the fighting has about ceased at Tam pico and the federals are evacuating the city by way of the railroad line. There was said to be heavy firing near the close of the battle. off cials here believe the escape of the federal army from Tampico is i'm probable The railroad between Tam pico and San Luis Potosi is in the hands of the constitutionalists.
 Gen Guiteras, with a strong consti tutionalist force is in the neighbor- hood of Cardenas and would intercept the fleeing federals if they sought to reach San Luis Potosi. With General Gonzales pursuing them from Tampico. they would be caught between two fires. Should they leave the line of the railroad to the north there country there is held by rebels and no succors or safety could be expected The country along the coast line from Tam pico toward Vera Cruz is practically impossible for men on foot and the on ly practicable route seems to be to march overland from some point on the railroad toward Mexico City

TRINIDAD, May 13.-Fire arms were outlawed tonight in Las Animas and Huerfano counties. At five o'clock the time limit set by the authorities for the peaceful surrender of guns, expired. With the expiration of the time limit an order of Col Lockett to confiscate all weapons in sight went into effect.
 Throughout the day at the various military camps scattered throughout the two counties, guns of every de- scription were surrendered to the army officers. At the military headquarters it was stated that different command CTS would not make reports until to- morrow and that no announcement of the exact number of arms in possession of the federal troops could be made to- night. It is considered certain that during the day several hundred weap- ons were added to the total of 5000 an nounced by Col Lockett early in the daV

Constitutionalists First At tackled the Coast City Last December and Fighting Has Been Virtually Con tinuOuS Since
NEW SITUATION
 CAUSES DISCUSSION
Possible Relations Between Vera Cruz and Tampico and Americans and the Rebels Gives Grave Con cern to Officials
TAssocIArED pREss DIspArcul

VERA CRUZ, May 13.-The fall of Tampico and what it may mean is the subject of general speculation here It was learned the constitu- tionalists had determined on an at tack on the port beginning at four o'clock this morning. The federal advance posts were driven in and un- til noon desperate fighting continued. Few. if any of the foreigners remain at Tampico, according to the latest reports
 A general exodus began when the news spread that the rebels were preparing for a final assault.
 With the fall of Tampico hostilities on the gulf coast of Mexico will come to an end at least for a time. The federals are maintaining an armistice so far as Americans are concerned according to a note from General Navarrete, published here. Nowhere along the coast line, ex- cept at Tampico are there more than scattered posts of federals, and con stitutionalsts, and the logical move ment Tor the NlctOrS from TamplcO will be to join their forces with those besieging San Luis Potosi
 The constitutionalists first at tackled Tampico last December and fighting has been virtually continu- ous since They twice drove the federal garrison into town and seem- ed on the verge of victory, only to be shelled by gunboats and forced to retire. There was much discus sion as to the possible relations be- tween this port under American con trol and Tampico under the consti tutionalists. Vera Cruz depends largely on the Tampico region for fruit and other food supplies, and merchants for see brisk business if the constitutionalists open the port to trade

No Redress Expected

WASHINGTON, May 13.-Sir Cecil Spring Rice. the British ambassador. said today in regard to the two Brit ish subjects killed at Guadalaiara. that the latest advice indicates that these men met death at the hands of bandits. and therefore it is impossible to secure any sort of redress as neither the fed erals nor the constitutionalists can be held responsible.
 Admiral Howard, reporting to the navy department from the west coast of Mexico today says that skirmishing continues near Mazatlan. and that fed eral forces have occupied the city of Topic. He adds that trains are run ming from Guadalajara to Mexico City. He has ordered the Cheyenne to San Quentin for refugees, and expects the Newport with refugees to leave Ma zanillo shortly.
 News reached Washington through official sources that General Garcia Pena, one of the highest ranking off cers of the federal army has taken command of the forces outside Vera Cruz, superseding Maas. The news caused all manner of speculation around the state war and navy depart- ments. Some officials are inclined to attach special significance to the move. seeing evidence of Huertas intention to strengthen the position around the great port occupied by the Americans and possibly to assume an offensive at titude
