SPOILED BEEF AKD SPOIL
ED LAKGITAfaE.
The late war with Spain develop
ed two things outside of defeat of
the Spaniards, namely, spoiled
beef and spoiled language. A
great deal of the dressed beef sent
to the army spoiled, and how could
it be otherwise. A summer sun in
the tropics is sufficient to quickly
spoil fresh meet of any kind, and
particularly when handled as the
beef in the army was handled
ell the fresh beef spoiled, it did
not matter how it was prepared,
and .then the coinmis-sary depart
ment was blamed. General Miles,
commanding the armies of the
United States, on the witness
stand before an investigating com
mittee charged "that the canned
ami refrigerated meats sent to the
army in Cuba and Porto Eico were
unfit lor use ; that they were pre
served by the use of chemicals, and
that they had been bought and
sent to the army under pretense of
au experiment." . That startling
declaration has been hotly denied
by Brigadier General t'has.
luigaii of the Commissary Depart
ment
The testimony of the commander
of the armies of the United States
spoiled Kagan's language worse
than the Cuban sun spoiled the
lccf, and caused Eagan to let him
sel loose on General Miles, in the
following curb stone language
'1 answer that it was not fur
nished under the pretence of ex
periment, nor even as an experi
incut, and when General Miles
charges that it was furnished as
'preleuse of experiment' he lies in
his throat, he lies in his heart, he
lies in every hair of his head and
every pore of his body; he lies
wilfully, deliberately, intentionally
and maliciously. If his statement
is true that this was' furnished un
der 'pretense of an experiment,
then I should lie drummed out of
the army and incarcerated in State's
prison.
"it ms stwmacrrrc a
assert it to be, then he shonld be
drummed out of the service and
incarcerated in prison with other
lileller.s. His statement is a scan
anions lilel reflecting upon the
honor of every officer in the de
partmom who has contracted for
or purchased this meat, and espe
cially and particularly on the com
missary general - myself.
"in denouncing General Miles
as a liar when he makes this state
ment I wish io make it as emphatic
and as coarse as the statement it
self. 1 wish to force the lie baci
iuioms inroat covered with the
contents of camp. latrine. I wish
io oranu it as a falsehood of the
wnoie cloth without a particle of
truth to sustain it, and unless he
can prove his statement he should
be denounced by every honest man,
barred from the clubs, liarred from
the society of decent people and so
os.raoised that the street bootblack
ooiim uoi couuescend to speak to
him, for he has fouled his own
nest , he has aspersed the honor of
a brother officer without a particle
oi evidence of fact to sustain in
any degree his scandalous, libelous,
malicious falsehood, viz.: That
this beef or anything whatever was
furnished the army under 'pretense
of experiment.'

SPOILED RECF-82'OILEO
ECiAlff.
Last summer when northern re
frigerator meat reached Porto
Kico, how could it help spoiling !
A whole cargo was lost but it was
not worse tainted than General
Eagan tainted himself when he
vilely abused General Miles. The
latter named General is command
er of the armies of the United
States and if his army were com
posed of such insubordi nates as
General Egan, the army would be
only a mob. A few specimen
o.licers like Eagan, will turn the
people of the United States against
its own army and cause them to
fleet a Congress, and a president
who will re-oflicer the army with a
more respectable set of men than
Eagan. Eagan is a blackguard
and should be dismissed the ser
vice, lie is not a fit man for a
responsible position. What would
become of the private soldier who
villiiieation read in another col-i
nnin. As far as can be learned !
Eagan's resentment dates from the
time of last summer when General
Miles was at Porto Kico. When
three hundred thousand pounds of
fresh meat spoiled on board a ship
off the island of Porto Eico. That
cargo of spoiled meat was a fat
thing for a Xew York soap manu
facturer, who bought the stuff, but
the government lost $27,000 by
the transaction. General Eagan,
is the head of the Commissary De
partment, and he does not want to
shoulder the loss of the meat, and
he raved because the testimony of
General Miles stated that chemi
cally prepared meat was sent as au
experiment to the army. After
General Miles had despatched to
the department not to send more
meat to Porto "Rico, the cargo of
kneat above mentioned comes in
with its loss of twenty-seven thou
sand dollars. That cargo of ment
was being loaded when General
Miles' telegraph waa received. Re
gardless of the order of the com
manding General, Eagan let the
meat go. hen the meat came to
Porto Eico, General Miles refused
to receive it.- Instead of explain
ing why Eagan shipped the meat
in disregard of the order of the
Commanding General, he plays the
blackguard, and abuses Miles.

Governor Stone was inaugurated
yesterday at Iiarnsburg. The day
was fine. The crowd was as larjre

Justice Williams of the Supreme
Court administered the oath of
office, in the presence of the mem.
bers of both houses of the Legisla

the commonwealth.
His address was listened to with
marked attention and highly ap
proved.
He expressed a sense of the pres
sure of the responsibility of the
position ot governor of this great
commonwealth. His purpose he
said, is to discharge honestly and
fearlessly his. whole duty to the
people of Pennsylvania, but he
feels that he can do nothing with

State is more in need of a business
administration than a political oue.
lie disapproves of the appropria

is the reason the State is now in

counties and normal schools over

Tho chameleon is a little lizard who
possesses the wonderful power of chang
ing bis color to suit his own conven
ience. Florida prodnces several ppocies
of theso lizards iu abnudance. This is
the process by which tho littlo lizard
effects his changes :
Certain colors through the medium of
the optic nerve produce a contraction or
expansion cf the pigment cr color cells.
The result is a protective tint or ono
which resembles that upon which the
animal is resting. Tbo eyo receives the
stimulus cr impression, which passea
from the optic nerve to the sympathetic
nerve, so reaching the various series of
tho lizard a little color cells under the
skin.
The pigment cells tiro distributed all
over the body with more cr less regular

pansion depends the prevailing color of
the animal.
