After the first news of the des truction of the Spanish squadron nt Manila, this Country waited in sus pense for the details of tho hnttlo. The material effect of that wholly successful engagement was to wipe out tho Spanish floot at Manila, and place the Phillipine islands nnder our control. The moral effect was to make the Spanish ministry more determined in tho fneo of the disas ter to carry on tho war, whilo it gave great confldonoo to oar pooplo in the ability of our vessols to suc cessfully cope with tho enemy. Not that a reverse would have de terred us fora moment, hut it would have prolonged tho mnttor by ren dering our fleets more cautious, and would have doprivod us of at least a part of our confidence in our prow ess. We are now, thanks to Ad miral Dowoy and his brave assistants masters of the Spanish in the East, and have established ourselves as a first class naval power. What we will do with the islands is a question but one whioh need cause no diffi culty. The revenue from them is un der BpaniBta rule, about fourteen mil. lion dollars, whioh a proper adminis tration of affairs might easily in crease to twenty five million- a year. We are a great nation. Aside from the merely money consider ations, we have duties toward hu manity and responsibilities in the way of Civilizing and Christianizing the world. We are sending out missionaries to preach tho gospol and their teachings are nullified by semi-barbarian rulo. Why should we not establish humane govern ment, and bo fertilize the soil in which we plant the gospel seods? In doing this America would be por- lorming a part of tho great destiny whioh under God she was establish ed to fuffill. Tne victory won by our ships nt Manila is a rovelation to the nations. The Powers of Europe have waited to see what we could do with those complicated machines the modorn warships, and now that one Bhort action, in which we,jdid not lose a man, or receive injury to a vossol, while destroying the Hpanish fleet and a strong defense, demonstrates our ability to handle tho ships, and use with doadly effect, their heavy guns, thoy are compelled to re ad Just thoirJ ideas, of our skill, and place thomsolves in a position to deal with a now factor in the worlds history. . , Wo havo not develod, but in one short week wo havo leaped with a bound fiom being an almost un considered naval trifle into a poten tiality which requiros a now adjust ment of ldoas among the nations of the earth. Hereafter they nood to rockon with us in. their schemes of partitioning, and territorial acquis! tion. There is no reason why, having the Philippines we should not keep them. There is of course grave responsibility attaching to their control and government, but what nation is bettor fitted for the task of rehabilitating them under a stable and patriotic rovernmont ! This Country has a mission and it may be through the downfall of the ignorant and superstitious Spaniards that our star of Empire may take its way eastward and illume the dark spots of earth where misrule and op pression have heretofore hold dead ly sway. The Powers would doubtless look with far more oomplacouoy on our re -tontionof those Islands, than they if should fall into the hands of any other nation. Manifest destiny has placed them under the stars and stripes and why should not our ban ner ooutiuuo to wave over them? Something new, a spring tooth harrow with wheels.

OMMUDOKK IlKWKt ARRIVED OFF MANILLA BAV S A Tl R I) A V NIOIIT, ANO lll:( llKI TO KNTKIl AT ONCE. WITH ALL THE LIGHTS OUT THE RUlIAimoW NTKAMKII THHOl'OH WITH TIIK t'KHWfl AT THE OU.NS. THE FIHHT SPANISH PHOT FIRKD. Not. until the flagship was n mllo Ve- yond Uorregtdor wan a gnu fired. Then one heavy phot went screaming over the Ru'elgh nnd the Olympla, followed by a si-cond, which fell further nstern. The Raleigh, the Concord nnd tho Hus ton replied, tho Concord's shells explod ing apparently exactly Inutile tho shoie buttery, which Bred no more. Our squadron slowed down to barely storage wny nnd our men were allowed to sleep almg-iide their guns. Commodore Dewey had timed our ar- rival so that we were within five miles of the city of Manila nt daybreak. Wo then sighted the Spanish squadron, Hear Admiral Muntojo commanding, off C'nvlte pronounced Knhvootay, with ac cent on the "vee." Hero the Spaniards had n well equipped navy ynrd called Cavitc Arsenal. Admiral Montojo's flag wns flying on tho B,5"0 tun protected cruiser, Relnn Orlsllna. The protected cruiser Crlstilla of 3,2UO tons, was moored ahead, nnd astern to tho port battery nnd to tho seaward were tho cruisers I)on Junn de Austria, Don Antonio do Ulloa, Isln do Cuba, Isln de Luzon, Qulros, Marquis del Onero, nnd General Lcr.ox. Tho ships nnd the flagship remained under wny during most of the action. OUR SHIPS DEGIN THE ATTACK. With the United States flag flying nt ill thfir innsthends, our ships moved to tho nttnek In line ahead, with n speed of Ifht knots, first passing In front of Ma nila, where the action wns begun by three batteries mounting guns powerful enough to send a shell over us n distance of live miles . Thi Concord's guns boomed out a reply to these with two shots. No more were fired, because Commodore Dewey coulii not engage with these batteries without sending death and destruction Into the crowded city. SPANIARDS EXPLODE TWO MINKS. As wo nenred Cavlto two very powerful submarine mines were exploded ahe:id ci, the flagship. ThU was at six minute past Ave o'clock . The Spaniards evidently had misjudge:: our position. Immense volumes of watei wore thrown high In tho uir by these de stroyers, but no harm was dono to our ships. Oomniodoro Dewoy had fought with Kn.rrn.gut nt New Orleans nnd Mol'lle Buy, where he had his first experience wltn lorpedooB. Not knowing how many more mines there might be ahead, he still kept ou without faltering. No other mines exploded, however, and It Is believed that tho Spaniards hud only those two In place. Only a few minutes later the shore bat tory nt Cuvlto Point sent over the flagship n shot that nenrly hit the battery In Mik nlln, but soon the guns got n bettor range, and tho shells began to strike near us or burst close aboard from both the batteries and the Spanish vessels. ' Tho heat wns Intense. Men stripped off all clothing except their trousers. As tho Olympla drew near all was ns silent ou bonrd tho ship ns If It ' had been empty, except for tho whirr of blowers nnd tho throb of tho engines. Suddenly a shell burst directly ovor us. From the .boatswain's mate at the after 5-inch gun came a hoarse cry. "REMEMBER THE MAINE I" cnino from the throats of five hundred men at the guns. This watchword was caught up In turrets and llrerooms, wherever sea man or fireman stood nt his post. "Remember tho Maine!" hod rung out for defiance and revenge. Its utterance seemed unpremeditated, but was evident ly lu every man's mind, and now that the moment had oome to make adequate reply to tho murder of tho Maine's crew, every inuu shouted what was lu his heart. THE OLYMPIA READY AT LAST. The Olympla wns now ready to begin the fight. Commodore Dowoy, his ohlef of Staff, Commander Lniubortou, uud aid and my self, with Executive OlUuer Lieutenant liens and Navigutor Lieutenant Cawklns, who conned ship admirably, were ou the forward bridge. Cnptaiu Urlilley wits lu the oonuiug tower, aud nt nineteen min utes of six o'clock, nt a distance of 5,5(10 yards, the starboard S-tnob gun In tho for ward turret roared forth aoompllmeut to the Spanish forts. Presently similar guns from tho Balti more aud the Boston seut 230 pound shells hurtling toward tho Costilla aud the iioiua Crlstiua for accuracy. SPANISH GUNS' HOT WORIC. Tho Spaniards seemed eucournged to Are faster, kuowiug exactly our distance, while wo hod to guess theirs. Their ship aud shore guns were milking things hut for us. The piercing seruniu of shot wus varied oftou by the bursting of time fuse shelU, fragments of which would lush tho water like sharpuel, or out our bull and rigging. One largo sholl that was coining straight at tho Olympiu's forward bridge fortunate ly fell williiu leds thau 1U0 tout away. Ouo frngmcut cut the rigging exactly over lh. heads of Lumbertou, Hcos and myself Another struck tho bridge gratiugs lu Hue with it. A third pusod just under Commodore Dewey and gouged a hole In tho deck. Inelduuts like these were plen tiful. Our men naturally chafed nt being ex posed without exchanging lire front all our guns, but laughed ut dauger aud chatted good humorcdiy. A f-jw nervous fellows could not help dodging mechanic ally when khells would burst right, over th-mi orcluao ubourd, or would strike tho water and paused overho-td, with tho pe culiar sputtering roar nimlo by a tum bling rilled projectile THE CLYMPI A UNDER HEAVY FIRE Still the flagship suvred for tho centre of tho Spaninh liuu, und, as our other ships were astern, tho Olyuipia received moat of the Spaniards' attention. Owing to our deep draught, Commodore Duwey (elt voustralueU to chuugo his rourse nt n distance of four thousand yards and run parallel to the Sprmi.di col umn. "Open with all gum," he said, and the ship brought her pert broaiHlde bearing. The roar of all the fbtgshlp'sS Inch rapid flrers was followed by a de-p diapason of her turret H-lnehers. Soon our other vessels were equally hard nt work, nnd we could seo that, our shells were making Cavlto harbor hotter for- the Spaniards than they hud made the up preach for us. Protected by shoro batteries and made safe from close attack by shallow water, tho Spaniards were In n strong position. They put up n gallant fight. The Spanish ships wero Railing back nnd forth behind the Cnstilla, nnd their Are, too, was hot EX WiOSION ON THE BALTIMORE. One shot struck the Baltimore and pars ed clean through her. fortunately hitting no one. Another ripped up her main de k, disabled n H-lnch gun nnd exploded a box of 8-pounder nmmiinitlou, wound ing eight men. Tho Olympla was struck nbreast the gun In tho wardroom by a shell which burst outside, doing little damnpv The signal halyards wen cut from Lieutenant Hrumbys hand on the after bridge. A hell entered th.i Boston's port qunrter and buist in Ensign Dodridge's state room, starting n hot fire, nnd lire wns also caused by n Hiell which hurst in tho port hammock netting Doth these fires were quickly put out. Another shell passed through the Boston's foremast, just in front of Captain Wilde?', nn tin brldiro After hnvlng ninde four runs along tho Spanish line, finding the chart incorrect, Lieutenant Calkins, tho Olyinpla's navi gator, told tho Commodoro ho believed he could take the ship nearer the enemy with lend going to watch tho depth of water. The flagship stnrted over the course for the fifth time, running within two thousand yards of the Spanls h vessels At this range, even H-poumlers were effective, and tho storm of shells poured upon tho unfortunate Spanish begun to Bhow marked results. ' Three of tho enemy's vessels were seen burning nnd their fire slackened. JUST A STOP FOR BREAKFAST. On finishing this run Commodore Dew ey decided to give tho men breakfast, ns they had b.vu nt the guns two hours with only ono cup of c.ifTeo to sustain them. Action ceased temoortly at twenty-ilve minutes of eight o'elo.ik, the other ships p.isslng the flagship aud cheering lustily Our ships remained b.-yond rana-i of the uieiuy's guns until ten minutes of eleven o'clock, when the signal for close action igaln went. up. Tho Baltimore had the plaje of honor in tho lead, with the llag ihip following and tho other ships in bo-' fo:'0 . The Baltimore b 'gan fli itiir itt the Span ish ships and butteries at sixteen minutes past eleven o'clock, in.iUln f a series of hits its if at target practice. Tho Spaniards replied very slowly, nnd tho Commodoro signalled tho Raleigh, the Boston, tho Concord and the Petrel to o Into tho Inner harbor nn 1 destroy nil the euemy's ships. By her light draught tho lit tle P.rtxol was enabled to move within one thousand yards. Hero, Arlug swiftly but accurately, sho commanded everything still flying the Spanish Aug. Othor ships wore also doing their whole duty, nnd soon not one red nnd yellow en sign remained aloft, except on a battery up tho const. The Spauish Aaxshlp nnd tho Cnstlllu had long beon burning fiercely, and thol Inst vessel to bo abandoned wus tho Don Antonio do Ulloa, which lurchod o ver and sank. WHITE FLAG HOISTED. Then the Suanish flag on tho Arsenal stuff was hauled down, and at half -past twelve o'clock n whito flag was hoisted there. Signal was mado to tho Petrel to destroy all tho vessels In tho Inner harbor, and Lieutenant Hughes, with an armed bout's crow, set Uro to the Don Juau do Austria, Marquis Duero, tho Isla do Cuba and the Corroo. The largo transport M tnlln and many tugboats and small craft fell into our hands . ''Capture or destroy Spanish squadron," wore Dewey's orders. Never wero instruc tions more ell eotually carrletlout. Within seven hours after arriving ou tho scjno of action nothing remained to be dono Tho Best Potatoes. Aooordiug to the invoatigations of a Fronoh chemist tho potato con sists of threo layord, which may ho distinguished with tho naked eye. Thoso are of different thicktiosios, and docroaao toward tho infcori ir. Tho outermost layer contains com paratively the most starch, hut loss nitrogenous substances; ; with the innermost layer the proportion is just the reverse, and tho middlo hits a moitu composition hetwoen tho two others. An average potato contains throe quarters of its weight in water, two-tenths in starch and ouo fif tieth of nitrogenous matters. The richer tho potato in nitrogunous suhstaticos, the greater its food value, and the richer in starch, tho less. Some potatoes swell up in hot wator, cracking and even breaking open, whilo others retain their original shape even while well done. It is commonly thought that the bursting open when cooking was indicative of uu especially large per centugo of starch, the starch swell ing up and breaking the skin, hut this is now claimed to be erroneous, but tho percentage of albumen is said to be responsible. If a potato is comparatively rich in this sub stance, it will keep its shape ou boiling. A cracking or tailing apart indicates a dufioiency of albumen The potatoes Containing most al bumen btiug tho most nutritious, everybody can determine their worth by boiling. The best vari eties do not fall apart, but remain whole on cooking. Cusearets stimulate liver, kidneys and bowels Never sicken, wea'cou or gripe, XUc. Mercantile Appraisement FOR 1898.
