THREATEN TO FIRE ON
CLVDEJJNER.
American Ship Sails for Closed Ports
and, Consul Says, if She At
tempts To Run Blockade,
She Will Be Sent to
Botrn-n.
New York, November 16.—The agents
here of the Clyde line steamer Cherokee,
which had trouble with the Dominican
government authorities on her last trip
to that island, declared today that tne
Cherokee will sail torgiy on her regular
schedule and will pursue her regular
itinerary, stopping at. Samana Bay, Monte
Cristl, Sanchez, Puerto Plata and Ma
coris.
Manuel de Galvin, consul general from
San Domingo to New York, said that the
Cherokee will surely be sunk if she at
tempts to enter the five harbors named.
He says the entire San Dominican navy,
the gunboats El Presidente and Indepen
dencia, are on guard to maintain the
blockade of those ports, now in the hands
of th'* rebels under Jimine®.
Consul Cal van continued:
••Acting on orders from my govern
ment I have notified Collector st £*JJ**‘*“
that the ports of Samaryt Bay s j\"^, z ’
Puerto Plata, Moafl.e Cristl and Macoris

one port of cal! open it must continue
its services. It is even bound by its con
tract to carry our troops from port to

Stales government is in sympathy with

not countenance the carrying on of any
attempt to enter the ports which we have
declared closed.”
No Ships Will Be Sunk.
Washington, November 16.—The state
department today received a notice from
the Dominican government through the
consul general In New York that it had
closed by. decree, to commerce for the
duration of the Insurrection, the ports of
Monte Cristo, Puerto Plata, Sanchez, Ma
coris ami Samana. It Is stated here that
this notice is given to prevent a recur
rence of the mistake made by the Do
minican government in attempting to
blockade Puerto Plata recently without
giving the requisite notice. As to wheth
er or not the new decree Is respected, the
officials say nothing can be told at pres
ent. It will remain for Captain Briggs, of
the Baltimore, and Minister Powell to
determine whether or not the blockade
proposed is really effective and under no
circumstances will tiie state department
respect a paper blockacre.
The Dominican government or the in
surgents, whoever attempts to establish
a blockade, must have the ships present
to make ft effective. The officials have
not the slightest fear that the Domini
can government will try to sink any reg
ular Unied States liner so long as the
Baltimore is in Dominican waters.
City Shelled by Bebels.
San Domingo, November 17.—The polit
ical situation here is serious. The in
surgents are bombarding the city. Gen
erals Wenceslao Figuero and Juan Frisco
Sanchez are refugees in the foreign lega
tion.
The city is completely invested by 4.000
men under Pichardo and four other gen
erals.
A general attack is expected within a
few days, General Wos y Gil refuses to
capitulate and it Is bedeved the lighting
will be severe.
The situation is desperate and fighting
in the streeis is likely to occur at any
moment.
The United States cruiser Baltimore
has been compelled to leave to recoal.
United States Minister Powell is en
deavoring to protect American interests
with the limited means at his disposal.
A Gorman naval vessel Is ready to land
troops nt a moment's notice.
The Insurgents endeavored to have
Minister Powell recognize them, but this
the minister refused to do.
The revolutionists fired on the Clyde
line steamer New York as she was en
tering the port of Samana, but the ves
sel was uninjured.
The Dominican government has ap
pointed Minister of Foreign Relations
Galvan and Jutfgre George Gray, of Dela
ware, as commissioners to arbitrate the
Santo Domingo improvement matter, as
the resTTM fl? Minister Powell’s effort to
compel the carrying out of the-terms of
the protocol. Commissioner Galvan
will leave for the TTnited States tomor
row. Tt Ts possible that, the insurgents
mav endeavor to capture him.

Washington. November 17. The revolu
tions's of San Domingo today applied to
the state department for recognition by
the United States. The application was
presented to the department by J. M.
Giordan, who represented hints. If as the
provisional agent of the revolutionary
government, of which General Jiminez
is the head.
The state department has declined the
recogniton. informing Mr. Giordan that it
had been the unbroken policy of the state
department to recognize only de facto
governments and if Minister Powell, who
is on the spot finds that the revolution
ists have actually established a capital
and opened ports and is able to protect
life and pro’-.-rtv, he will recognize it.
It is believed that Mr. Powell has not
looked with favor upon the recognition
desired by the revolutionists, who have
threatened to invalidate and repudiate
any arrangements which the United
States minister may have made with the
tottering government of President Wos y
Gil.
Blockade Not Recognized.
New York, November 17—The United
States government has refused to recog
nize the blockade of San Dominican ports
made two days ago, and has protested
against it. This was confirmed by Col
lector Stranahan, of the port of New
York, today. The collector received tele
graphic advices from the treasury de
partment advising him that the state de
partment does not consider the blockade
effective, and has entered a vigorous
protest against it The collector, in con
formity with his Instructions and the.
protest, has notified masters of vessels
sailing to San Dominican ports that clear
ance papers will be issued for any ports
in San Domingo, thus officially refuting
the effectiveness of the blockade. At the
offices of the Clyde line it was said that
the Cherokee would clear tomorrow for
her usual trip, calling at the ports which
the local Dominican consul says are
•‘Beyond the Hills.”
'T can hear the drums as the army
comes
From beyond the hills.” he said.
And h<- leaned and smiled like a happy
child
As he shook his snowy head.
And he clutched his cane while the far
refrain
Came in murmurs to his ears,
But they whispered low: "He has
dreamed it so.
And it Is no drum he hears.’’
"I can hear :he fife ns it lea,ps with life,
And the drums roll madly, too.”
Was the old man’s sigh as with kindling
eye
He would hum the warsongs through.
"1! Is Jimmy Shea—that is how he’d play
When the road wns hard and long:
And it’s Billy’s drum that is calling,
‘Cornel’
As it keeps time with the song.”
And bls fingers slim beat a tattoo grim
On Hie stout arm of the chair,
WTiile his lips grew stern and his eyes
would burn
With the fire that onco was there.
"O. the bugle call, and the drums and
all!”
He would say, "Their music fills
ATT the night and day; I can hear them
play
In the march beyond the bills.”
"I can hear the drums, .and the army
comes
From beyond the hills.” ho said.
With his eyes aglow he saluted slow
And he touched his snowy head.
Then his eyes were closed as if he but
dozed.
And his day of days had dawned,
For the low drum beat had allured his
• feet
To the hills—and far beyond.

I Indianapolis, Ind., November 22 —(Spe
! cial.) - Dr. Benjamin F. Bye, of this city,
I has perfected a wonderful cure of cancer
• in the ease of Mr. Jefferson Coker, who
1 was afflicted with cancer almost covering
i the entire face. One large malignant
i growth on the jaw under the eye was as
■ large as a turkey egg. The patient has
been cxe- ecjingly ill for weeks, probably
the results of a burning treatment ho had
been .subjected to before coming to Dr.
' Bye. Those that, have witnessed the cure
pronounce It. most marvelous, as Mr. Co
‘ ker was so weak h< rould scarcely walk.
The most extraordinary’ feature of the
cure 1- that there is no pain. The I'oe
tor's method of treatment, which was dis
covered bv him a few years ago. Is an oil
which will absorb the indurated parts of
can, , r and Iv’cl the ulceration.

Magnetic Storms and Sun Spots.
(Fr m The New York Tribune.)
The paralysis of and interference with
telegraphic service in America and Eu
rope Saturday for a period of several
j hours w not without precedent. That
kind of phenomenon Is of comparatively
infrequent occut'ence, but has been ob
served many times before. Tt is attrib-
■ uted by experts to a disturbance of the
earth’s magnetism, and occasionally there
• have b< i n manifestations in the southern
hemisphere at the same time as in the
northern.
I/ko certain auroral displays in low
latitudes, these outbreaks appear to be
associated In some mysterious way with
the appearance of spots on the sun.
I Hence there was a little reason for ex
i peeling that latest one. An area of solar
surface of considerable extent was seen
I to be marked with spots early in Octo-
■ her. By the rotation of the sun this re
i gion di.-'.ipp-ared a fortnight ago. but is
’ now coming Into view again. The exact
situation there cannot be discerned by
astronomer,; until the axial movement
has continued for a day >r two more, but
it is not unlikely that the loca'ity is still
to seine of ptreepllble activity. Just
what is the mechanism by which the ob
served effect is produced js yet uncertain.
I'crhaps It would be more intelligible if
tin- source >f the earth's magnetism it
self had been determined beyond dis
pute. The coincidence between magnetic
■ disturbances and sun spots Is more eon-
Spicious, apparently, than that between
other terrestrial phenomena, such as at
mospheric convulsions and solar out
breaks.

Washington, November 21 .—Secretary
Wilson today approved and proclaimed
the official food standards which have
just been formulated by the United btateg
food standard commission and the ex
ecutive committee of the National As
sociation of Pure Food Commission.
The committee of the national associa
tion, which met today, has recommend
ed to the different state food depart
ments that the standards be adopted for
use In the several states. The committee
in its recommendation says the general
adoption of the standards will unify the
food control work of the states. The com
mittee authorized 1; secretary, R. M.
Allen, officially to call an Intenrantlonal
pure food congress at the St. Louis ex
position and to visit tt once the govern
ments of Europe and invite them to hike I
part.
Secretary Allen also was instructed to |
take immediate ste;> toward organizing i
an exhibit of the w ck of the state food |
departments at the world’s fair.

Is to establish staci' iqs corresponding |

Sirup Is Defined.
Sirup is defined as the product obtained
by purifying and evaporating the juice or
tiie sugar producing plant without re
moving any of the sugar. Refinery
sirup as ordinarily made are classed by
these standards under the name of mo
lasses, which dffferes from sirup by tne
removal of sugar during manufacture.
Standard molasses contains not over 23
per -ent of water and not over 5 per cent
of ash. Standard sirup contains not over
30 per cent of water, nor 2‘ ? per cent of
rush. A limit is placed on the quantities of
water and ash used :n the glucose prod
ucts and this definition is made:
"Glucose sirup or corn sirup is glucose
unmixed or mixed with s up or mo
lasses.”
Standard glucose sirup contains a max
imum of 25 per cent of water and 3 of
ash. Candy is given the same definition
as in state food laws.
Tn the spices pepper is defined as to in
clude from the standard product pepper
hulls, pepper dust or other pepper by
products. The ash standard of black pep
per is made a maximum of 7 per cent,
and for white pepper a minimum of 4 per
cent, of which not over Ji per cent shall
be sand. Macassar and Bombay maces
are not considered as standard mace.
Standard mustard is given a maximum of.
2',i per cent of starch derived from mus

In the cocoa schedule standard choco

grinding kernels of the cocoa bean with

substances, the fat standard being a min

sugar in sweet chocolate is not limit' il
bv the standards. Cocoa is prescribed
as the kernel deprived ot ] art ot its lot ,

The Grippe Germs Hunting Ground.
(From The Philadelphia Rcc " rd ;.\ n „_
•■Pneumonia blouses and lace stockings
are the happy hunting grounds of the
grip germs.” remarked the pnvsician as
u girl passed holding her dress just big i
enough to display a bit of openwork
stocking. ’’Just now, of course, It may
not be particularly dangerous; but ever
so many maidens will dress the same
when cold winds whistle. Indeed, last
winter you could see the same Hung
when the snow flew. Fancy the feelings
of a girl tv ho had no hosiery, yet from
the health standpoint she'd be very little
worse off. As for the pneumonia blouses,
they're in the same class. The more
cobwebs in the shape of lace that are
set into them the more successful they
are supposed to be, and shouldeis must
show through these laces. It seems such
a foolish bld for attention. I suppose,
however, that the average man does like
to think women utterly different from
men in tlielr requirement:’, indeed. I've
heard them talk about it and wonder
how their sisters could possibly he com- ,
sortable in next to no clothes at all when ’
they required all-wool underwear. Os i
course, It wouldn’t occur to the victims
of this particular sort of vanity to save
time, health and money by dressing suit
ably. There’s no reason, though, why 1
personally should object.”
While one-room tenements In London
have decreased from 172.502 to 1+9.534,

spectively.
CURIOUS LORE.
Natural History Contained in a Very
Rare Book.
(From The London Express.)
Tt is interesting to know that among
some country folk the curious idea still
prevails that with the master die the
bees. Somebody tells me that instances
of this have been noticed of late. At a
sale of the humble effects of a villager
lately dead two or three hives of bees
in old straw keeps were to be disposed of,
but when they came to be examined it
was found that all the bees were dead.
A coincidence of this kind will probably
keen alive the superstition in that vil
lage for generations to come.
Some curious specimens of folk lore and
natural history are contained in a rare
book, called "The Sportsman’s Diction
ary,” to which C. M. Woolsey has drawn
my attention. Tills was published one
hundred and sixty years ago. The au
thor was evidently a Philistine among
Philistines in his attitude toward nature.
Os the master musician, the blackbird,
he says:
"This bird is known by all persons, and
is better to be eaten than kept, being
much sweeter to the palate when dead
and well roasted than to the ear while
living. Sings about times months in the
year, or four at most, though his song
is worth nothing; but if he be taught to
whistle he is of some value, it being very
loud, though coarse.” What an ear and
mind.'
And here Is a story of the squirrel with
the ring in it ot the seventeenth ev..n
more than the eighteenth century, it r
minds one of tiie harts of Izaak Walton,
that changed their sexes once a year.
"If what is reported of them be true,
the admirable cunning of the squirrel ap
pears in her (where we commonly u->
'lds' when the sex need not be specifi'A
Ot:r ancestors often used 'her') swimming
or passing over a river, tor when she 's
constrained by hunger «o to do she s ■ l<
out some rind or small bark ot a tree,
which she sets upon the wat-r, and then
goes into it, and, holding up her tr.il like
a. sail, lets the wind drive her to the
other side, and carries meat in her mouth
to prevent being famished by the length
of the voyage.”
Os the wild boar we have this: “And
wli.it place so ever he biles, whether ne:
or dog. the heat of his teeth causes an
inflammation in tiie wound. If. therefore,
he does but Couch the hair of a dog lie
burns off; nay. huntsmen have tried ihc
heat of his teeth by laying hairs on them
as soon as he was dead, anj they have
shriveled up as if touched with a hot
iron.''
