Tlio naval court of Inquiry appointed to investigate tlio Maine disaster will begin its work at Havana Tills news came to the navy department yesterday afternoon from Admiral Slcard,' at Key West. He simply telegraphed as followb. a "The court of inquiry ball for 50th by lighthouse steamer Mangrove. Marix arrived Tliis prompt action is undoubtedly duo to the express direction from Secretary Long, sent Saturday, to have tho investigation begun at tho earliest possible moment. Tho telegram was dated Saturdny, so tho board should havo arrived there before nightfall and of be ready to begin its work this morning. Uy an error incident to the hasto with which tho orders wcro gotten out, tho first accounts placed Lieutenant-CommandSen ton Schrocder on tho board as the third member, while as a matter of fact, Lieutenant-CommandePotter, tho executive officer of tho Jlug-shl- p New York, holds that place.

Orcat difficulty is expected in reh covering tho big turret guns, each worth 810,000, owing not only to their ownwcight,50 tons apicco, without carriages, but to tho enormous turrets inclosing them with 100 tons of steel. It is doubtful if tho tops ot these turrets can be removed, as was at first supposed, by cutting oil tho bolt heads that fix them to the sides as these large bolts aro probably countersunk and tli3 heads below tho surface of tho metal, while tho confined spaco within tho turrets would make it very difficult to operate thcro on tho inside ends under watcK It is hoped that it may be feasible, to raise tho turrets cntiro with tho guns, if lifting apparatus of sufficient power can bo applied, Tho newspaper reproductions of photographs taken of tho wreck wcro studied with much interest by tho naval officers hero yesterday. Orcat surprise was expressed at tho extent of the wreck, and tho vast mass of steel and iron heaped in the forward part oi tho ship was u particular object who Tho experts, of attention. had first ventured the theory of a bursting boiler as tho cause of the destruction, claim to find strong reinforcement in tho pictures for that belief. Tho great mass of metal appears to bo thrown up over tho boiler space and not over tho forward magazine, while tho forcing apart, forward, of tho hull, they say, might havo been accomplished by tho enormous cxpnn-slvpower of tlio high pressure steam carried in these boilers with their shells more than an inch thick. As to what might havo caused a boiler to explode, whether a disguised bomb in tho coal, low water or faulty construction, they do not undertake to say. Secretary Long said yesterday afternoon, after looking uver his telegraphic and mall correspondence, that it contained nothing of importance beyond the dispatches abovo given. The secretary referred with satlsfac tion to tho dlspaloh stating that the court of inquiry would assemble nt a The plan had been for the court to meet first at Key West, and nftcr doing such work as was possible there, to proceed to Havana, Hut Mr. Long thought it was desirable to have tho court proceed at onco to Havana, where tho inquiry could begin on the actual scene of disaster, and whero personal inspections would aid in an intelligent judgment.

Puro Representative Lewis, of Washington, who has just returned from Ottawa, where ho went to appeal to tho Canadian government for some modification of the Canadian regulations requiring American miners bound for tho Klondike to procuro their licenses at Vancouver, Victoria or Dawson City, says he found a feeling of intense hostility toward tho United States, especially on account of tho passage of tho Payne-Fry- e bill, which is designed to prevent British vessels from sharing In the Alaska carrying traio. Thero wus no disposition to concede anything to tho United States in the controversy, and Mr. Lewis returned convinced that no concessions would be obtained unless wo made counter concessions. The Canadian regulation requiring the Issue of licenses only 'at the points mentioned has aroused tho Pacific coast states, whero tho belief prevails that it will divert much, if not practically all of tho outfitting and supply trado with the Klondike to Victoria nnd Vancouver. Mr. Lewis went to Canada armed with letters of introduction from Assistant Secretary Day and other officials, including a letter from Sir Julian Paunccfotc, the Britisli ambassador here. Though ho was shown every rourtesy, Mr. Lewis said feeling against, the United States was rampant. While ho was at Ottawa Sir Charles Tupper made a speech condemning the United States for its tariff policy nnd charging that Minister Sefton and Mr. Lauricr had come to the United States and not only truckled to us, but had surrendered Canadian rights. The delegations from tho Pacific coast all protested against any modification of tlio license regulation. Mr. Lewis sought to havo tho regulation modified so that a license could bo issued by British consuls or at American ports, nnd this being rejected, he then sought to havo the Canadian police, especially at Lako authorized to Issue licenses to ingoing miners. Both requests were refused. Minister Sefton, however, finally proposed a counter proposition as a basis of adjustment, namely, to permit Canadian goods to go through 'Wrangel at the head of White Pass in bond. As Mr. Lewis was without any actual authority to negotiate on any basis Involving a modification ot our laws or regulations, he suggested that Minister 3cfton submit his proposition in writ-n- g to Secretary of tho Treasury Gage, ind it is understood this will be done 22. vice-consu- ls Ta-gis- dr. :rTOEiraAiiivs IMPROVED Washington, Feb. ovi amm) fOWDES CO., hCW VOBK.

The Kentucky will be launched March :5th, and Miss Christine Bradley, the Governor's very sensible daughter, will substitute a new and better way for the old, and christen the big battle-shiwith pure water. p Compared with February receipts in former years under the Wilson law the Treasury receipts thus far during this month under the Dingley law make a most favorable showing, and everything points to a total revenue for this February sufficient to meet all necessary Government expenses. With this point reached another foothold for the calamity howler slips away. fbr good, honest work on our public roads, that will make them at least passable. There are some encouraging features in the road question in Hopkins county. Our roads are of dirt with some sections of coal slack here and there, and quite a number of miles of machine graded roads have been built, both by private parties and by ihe county. Several iron bridges have replaced the old and worn wooden structures. Wha the future may bring forth is a matter of speculation, but we hope for the best. County Judge John Hall retains his seat but the fiscal court is differently constituted. Formerly the Fiscal court was composed of three Republican and three Democratic magistrates. Now there are seven magistrates, all Democrats. The demand for better roads is growing everywhere and they must come sooner or later. Let it be sooner! If our State laws arc not sufficient to give us good roads, let us make better laws and keep up with the procession of States in this effort to better the condition of the farmer and all other frequenters of the public road, materially, socially and every way.

Ir!" minister who was once "driven over a road which was so bad that he declared that if he ever went to hell he wanted to be driven over that road, because he would be glad when he got there." While every one is convinced that good roads are a blessing, little has been done in Western Kentucky toward getting good roads. Our works have not kept pace with our faith. The people in general do not seem to realize the absolute necessity of good roads nor of the important effect they have toward stimulating and therefore vitally effecting our progress and our prosperity. A writer who is vitally interested in the question of "good roads" ex claims, "Mud is only fit for poliTHE NEW WARSHIPS, ticians to throw at each other. It makes bad roads."

At this important tlmo Jesus said to His apostles, "Yo shall rcccivo power nftcr tbnt tho Holy Ghost is como upon yon, nnd yo 6hall bo witnesses nnto Ho both in Jerusalem and iu all Jwtoa and in Samaria and unto the uttermost part of tho earth." Thoro is hero not only a prophecy of what would talco place, but n divino commission to tho apostlca to bo worldwido missionaries. It was n broad, worldwido commission. It embraced homo missions "in Jerusalem and in all Judtca. " It included also foreign missions "and in Samaria and nnto tho uttermost part of tho earth." This implied command has undoubt edly n universal application. It includes all Christians. It was given first necessarily to tho apostles, becauso they were nearest to Christ, but it applies to ev ery disciplo of Christ Every Christian should bo n missionary. 1. Why should ovcry Christian bo a missionary? (a) Becauso tho command includes all. "Go yo into all tho world " and preach tho gospol to every is n command that comes to ovcry Christian with ns much forco ns to tho first ones to whom it was 6pokeu. No Christian can refuso to bo n missionary without refusing to obey Christ (h) Every Christian has recoived his Christianity as a result of mission work. Not ono of ns would ever havo known Jesus Christ as a Saviour had it not been for tho missionary work of others. Wo aro indebted to missions ourselves for Christ Freely wo havo received Him from others, freely wo should givo Him toothers, (o) Every Christian should bo interested iu saving immortal souls. If wo know tho joy of salvation ourselves, wo cannot but want others to know it nlso. Ono of tho proofs of our own salvation is an earnest desiro to havo all others saved, (d) Every Christian is needed as n missionary. Tho work is tremendous. Tho efforts of all nro need ed, no matter whether wo can do great or small thinga S. How may overy Christian bo a missionary? Thojo who can should themselves to tho nctivo work at homo or nbroad. Thoso who cannot go to tho mission field can find nbundanco to do at homo. Every Christian can koop himself informed upon tho subject of missions, overy ono can bo interested and try to interest others, overy ono can givo and pray and talk missions. If overy Christian wcro a real, consecrated missionary, tho question of sending tho goflpol to tho uttermost part of tho earth would Eoon bo solved. Biblo Readings.

It is interesting to observe that in nearly ever case farm products advanced immediately following the election of President McKinley.and have continued to advance since that time. The following table quotes prices on the date of the nomination of Mr. Brjan and the adoption of the Democratic declaration that prices could not advance except through the free coinage of silver, and compares with them those of April 1, 1897, the nearest obtainable date to the inauguration ol President McKinley; also those ol February It will be observed that 1, 1898. in nearly every case there has been a steady increase despite the fact that the voters of the country rejected the silver proposition. In another table is given the prices of articles which the farmer must buy, similarly arranged as to dates. In these articles it will be noticed that prices have fallen.
