HENDERSON IS OUT.' f Declines 10th Renomination to Congress from Iowa, Feels He Does Not Agree With His People on the Tariff. Cannot Side With Them in Belie* on Free Trade. Dubuque, Iowa, Sept. 16.—Speaker Henderson, finding that his views in to the treatment of trusts by reducing the tariff in whole or in part, are not in accordance with the views of many of his party in Iowa, has this day declined to accept the nomination for Congress and has withdrawn from the race. The following letter was addressed to C. E. Albrook, chairman of the no ti,-cation committee, KIdora. Iowa, by Mr. Henderscn: "My Dear Sir:—l have never an s'vered the kind notice communicated if by you and your associates advising e of my nomination for the 11th lime by acclamation as the Republi an candidate for Congress for the 3d Congressional district of Iowa. Re ported conditions in the public ntind n nr.y district upon public policies in duced me to make this delay. Since my return to the district I have made a careful study as to the j ntiment in the district and state and j I believe that there is no little sen ment an I a growing sentiment among Republicans that I do not truly rep lesent their views on the tariff ques tion. Relieving this condition to ex ist and knowing that I do nut agree with many of my peoole that trusts to which I am and have been opposed, can be cured, or the people benefit ted iiy tree trade, in whole or in part, I -a .,oi line to accept the nomination g-neruusly and enthusiastically jji title. "I have devoted of the best years of my life to the service of my people and my country and I have fought for vthat I believed to be best for the (aimer, the laborer and the business interests of this district and state. "I am grateful for the devotion that has ever been accorded me and to the hour of my death I will hold in a grateful heart the memory of devo tion. “I will give later on, in some detail, mv views and convictions on our con ditions and on public questions an I will state my reason why the Repub lican party and its policies should continue in the confidence of th« voters of the United States and why the doctrines of the Democracy should mi no lodgement in the teachings of 'he Republican party. “Very truly yours. “D. B. Henderson.” Speaker 1Ir. an of my district I concluded that my views on the tariff question wore at variance with those of many of my party, and I did not desire to ap pear In a false position." t- Henderson gave out an ad dress which states his vi« v. s oil i tariff and trust questions and be* au there views, in bis opinion, are not in ricoril with the state platform and with the opinions of prominent mem bers of his party, he declines to ac ept the nomination. The address is to ,*tho Republicans of the third Iowa district.” He says, boinp a Republican, he Is a prote Sept. 16.—The follow ing memorial vvu.i adopted, Momlay after noon, by the Gen *ial Assembly: "Sunday, the ilth day of September. 1902. was the first anniversary of th» death of our late, loved President.

Women who arc troubled with painful or irregular menstruation, back ache, bloating (or flatulence), leueorrhca, falling, inflammation or ulceration of the uterus, ovarian troubles, that bearing-down fjrling. dizziness, faint ness, indigestion, nervous prostration or the blues, should take immediate action to ward off the serious consequences, and be restored to perfect health and strength by taking Lydia K.

He Shakes Hands With Some 6000 or 7000 of Them.

Not a Bit Tired and Thoroughly En joys the Day. —w O.vster liny. X. V.. Sept. It:.—Presi- j •lent Roosevelt, Monday, received his friends and neighbors of Nassau conn- ty and between 600© and 7000 peopl shook his hand. The reception was held at his country home on Sagamore Hill and from 3 until 0 o’clock, he was busy shaking han.ds and renewing old acquaintances. He met people. Monday, whom he had not seen for 30 years, and shook hands with men who had known him when he ws a child. The Presi dent thoroughly enjoyed the affair and was as fresh when it was over as when he began. He expressed his feelings to a woman in the crowd who asked him if he was getting tired. "Not a hit," he replied. "It takes more than a trolley car to knock me out or a crowd to tire me.” The weather could not have been more delightful. When the sun rose Monday morning it shown upon a vil lage resplendent with color. The crowds began to arrive early from points on Long Island and by noon the village streets were crowded. At l o’clock, the members of the committee, headed by a h ind, started for Sagamore Hill and they wore followed by vehicles of all descriptions filled with Long Islanders. The precautions to guard the Presi dent against any possible harm were of the most extensive character. in addition to Sheriff Johnson's 300 speoTiI deputies, who had been sworn in for duty, today, a large number of secret service men and policemen from New York were on the porch and about the grounds. It was 2.43 when the reception began. The President stood on his porch and shook hands with all. Among those on the porch with the President was Com mandant Synmun, late of the Boer army. All sorts of people in all conditions of life filed by the President. None of the visitors were introduced to the President, hut when he recognized an old acquaintance, Mr. Roosevelt gen erally called him by name and ad dressed him with a pleasant remark. "Theodore, how air yer?" said an old salt, dressed in the uniform of an Amoiieun jaekie, as he shook the Pres ent's hand. The line was halted for a few mo ments to allow a delegation from Olen wood. L. 1., to present the President with a handsome Hungarian water bottie. The President spoke a few words'of thanks. A pleasing incident occurred toward the close of the reception. The New York policemen wanted their picture taken with the President in their midst. When the request was made of the President, he complied at once. Before the reception closed the bauds filed past the President. He shook each man by the hand and thanked him .for the music he had made. The hand from Oyster Bay at the head of the men who had acted as deputy sheriffs, brought the affair to a dose. They marched up to the porch and af ter the President had shaken hands with them ho was given three hearty cheers. THREATS AC A! NOT PRESIDENT. Man held at Cincinnati Pending an In vestigation. Cincinnati, Sept. Hi.—The police arc holding Joseph Hi hniitz. aged 40. on a charge of loitering, until they can in vestignte a statement that hi* hud threatened to lake the life of t’resiilUit Roosevelt. The police are now lock ing for the persons to whom he is sat i to have made the threat against the President. MISS STONE S LIFE Was Saved by Pt-es. Roosevelt's Fire Stand in Matter. Ringhaniton, X, y„ Sept. 16.—Hon. (Hirtfles M. Dickson, consul general to Turkey, at a dinner here, Monday, made the first public statement that he has made since his return from Con stantinople in regard to the responsi bility of the capture of Miss Helen Stone. He said: "l believe that President Roosevelt saved Miss Stone's life. When T*resi dent Roosevelt telegraphed me to say to the Rulgarian government that i.' any harm came to Miss Stone, the United States would he satisfied with nothing except a full placing of the re sponsibility for her capture and injury, the responsibility was lixed. That telegram undoubtedly saved Miss Stone's life.” A 13-year-old girl attempted suicide at Kali River, Mass., because of disap pointment in love. Monday, and the police soon after took in charge perfd ing an impiiry, the young man whom th” girl i filmed had been her sweet heart.

The South Carolina primaries have settled it that Ac successor of Senator MeLaurln will f>e CTf Lat^rm-r who has been member of the House for several ter^is. Latimer is an un derstudy of Tiltman and falls far short of what the South would have thought senatorial timber in the old days. The President began both his New England and his southern tours on Friday and now he will start for the ■West on that proverbially unlucky day. He is a man of too much sense to let superstition bother him, but his utter disregard of such things keeps lots of good people nervous. If the duty on soft coal doesn't act as an Indirect protection to hard coal, wh it is it on the tariff schedule for?— Winthrop Budget. To protect soft coal, of course. The duty on soft coal no more affects the present high price of hard coal than the duty on sugar affects the price of tea and coffee, which are free. What is the matter with the officers of the Olympia, the flagship of Dewey at Manila? Since that famous fight three of them have committed suicide, two of them within the past week. The latest to end his young life is Lieutenant Morris, well remembered in Maine where he was on recruiting service, last year, for several weeks. ‘'Boss" Shepherd who has just died In Mexico was commissioner of the District of Columbia under Grant, and there is no doubt that he well earned his title of “Boss.” His rec ord was undoubtedly an unsavory one, but it will be remembered to his credit that he found Washington an overgrown and shabby Virginian vil lage and that he left it well along the road to become the most beautiful capital of the world. The dressmakers say that the stomach must go and that settles it. The decree went forth from the an nual convention of the National Dress makers' Protective Association at New York, last week, and those ladies who have carelessly been allowing nature to take its course in the matter of em bonpoint will be distressed accordingly. “Straight fronts or nothing!" is fash ion’s order and it "goes,” just as the edict of a relentless barbarian mon arch among his cowering slaves. It is welcome news that Peary is safe, and the whole country is grateful for the brief message that comes from the far North where the intrepid ex plorer has been for over four long years. His return will be eagerly I awaited and there is intense interest to know what he has learned and done I in the region of the pole. And did he reach the pole? That nothing was j siiid of this in the dispatch will be generally taken as meaning that another failure has been recorded. The papers of the South will not fail to improve the opportunity offered by the exclusion of .colored girls from Northwestern University, Chicago. It will give them a fine opportunity to as sert that the North refuses to practice what it preaches on the negro prob lem. This Chicago institution, by the way. is always winning notoriety in one way or another. It is there that the co-educatlonal problem has been taken by the horns and possibly in the attempt to cut down the number of female students the colored girls are selected as an easy class to exclude. The ice trust has melted: the bicycle trust is punctured; the asphalt trust has found life a hard road to travel, and the alkali trust and the salt trust have also been w ritten up in the obituary columns. Times of great prosperity are good for conservatively organized, legitimately planned and honestly conducted concerns, but for others there must be an early day of reckoning. No small portion of the trust problem is thus taking care of itself. Water and wind are all right and quite necessary in their places, but they are poor material to make en during corporations of. The annual report of its leading rail road system well reflects the prosper ity which Maine lias been enjoying. The Increased pass^jpc^jl frafliM ijy. in larges measure the grow ing popular Ity of our State as a summer resort, and the increased volume of freight business means that agriculture and manufactures have been booming. There is the greatest interpendence of interest between the railroad and the communities it serves, and we may all rejoice at the prosperous condition of the company as indicated by the Hist annual report of the Maine Cen tral. The report points out the inter esting fact that within the past five years the taxes annually assessed upon the company have been almost doubledt Talleyrand a Native of Maine? The name of Talleyrand is not com monly included in the long list of fa mous men who were born in Maine. In the histories of France and wher ever facts are recorded about the world's greatest men one may read that he was born in Paris. Feb. 13, 1 54. This however is now contradicted with much emphasis, and in the current Bookman Jane Marsh Parker, the well known New York writer on historical subjects introduces some most inter esting testimony to show that the great French statesman and diplomat first saw the light on Mt. Desert Island. Miss Parker gets her points mainly from what the Maine historian, Joseph Wllliamson.of Belfast, publish ed in the Bangor Historical Magazine of July, 1887, but her article in the Bookman will call more general atten tion to the subject than it has ever received before. Mr. Williamson in turn had based his article upon state I ments he had received from the Hon. Edward Robbins of Boston, who was speaker of the Massachusetts House of Representatives when Talleyrand came to this country, in 1733, and who be came intimately acquainted with the Frenchman. It was during that visit of 1795 that Talleyrand, an exile, visit ed Augusta and was entertained here by Col. North whose home was where the Granite National bank stands. He was accompanied by a young French man whom tradition, never fully sub stantiated perhaps, has said to be Louis Philippe, later King of the French. This arrival in this country was at Wiseasset and after visiting this city they went to Boston, and New York and Philadelphia, the latter city being then the seat of government. Not long after Talleyrand had left Boston Mr. Robbins unexpectedly ran across him near Hull's Cove, Mt. Desert, the home of Mme, La ValV colony of French immigrants. Talley rand did his best to avoid meeting the Bostonian, who, on his part, had no scruples about proclaiming the identity of the hobbling visitor. Then it was that some of the fisher-folk declared that they had seen in the crippled gait of the stranger what reminded them of "the lame French boy" who had been taken atvay from the island just before the war. Before Robbins left the island he verified the report that "the lame French boy" referred to was the illegitimate son of a French officer whose ship had touched at the island in 1753 or 1754 for repairs. When the boy was about two years old his mother overturned a kettle of hot water on his foot, crippling him for life. She died about the time the French war was over, and soon after ward a French gentleman came for the buy. saving that bis father was dead, and that a rich uncle, a fine gentleman in Franc e, had promised the fatln r that he would adopt the child and bring him up his own son. The boy was then about eight yeais old, the same age as the little boy of the memoirs. In his memoirs Talleyrand makes no mention of the names of his parents. Others filled the spaces with the names of Charles Daniel de Talleyrand-Peri gord and Alexdrincde Dumas. He re lates. however, that he was cruelly neglected. Why did he direct that the memoirs should not be published until 3(1 years after his death, and not even then if they would "inconvenience" anyone? The writer in the Bookman says that that was "the surest way to prevent a thorough investigation of the subject and its settlement, when wit nesses might be living whose testimony could not be gainsaid. The unpleasant story would be forgotten in thirty years, or it would have become a tra dition too vague for credence.” Helping the Filipino. Spoaking of our largely increased trade with the Philippines, a Demo cratic exchange says: “This may be a good thing from our greedy, com mercial point of view, but what about the Filipino? What is this country really doing to better his condition or help his country?” This is not ex tremely difficult to answer. One answer is given in the work of sanitation be ing accomplished in Manila whereby this government is ruthlessly depriv ing the Filipino of his ancient preroga tive to live in filth and die of the cholera. We have injected ideas as welt as material forces into the Philip pines, and both to the great benefit of the Filipino. AVe deepen Manila har bor. and bring the people of the island nearer to the great world by cheapen ing their freights; we build roads in the islands, and start the wheels of trade, agriculture and manufacture. Hut that is the smaller of the two great items in the account. AA'e train the people in self-government, and we f-scnd their children to school. AVe free their minds from their native feti chistic superstitions, and turn them to thoughts of liberty and order. And there Is another thing which must not be forgotten. AVe are endowing the natives with many wants, clothing, shoes, new foods, tools, etc., etc., and such wants will make him work and lie useful where he was before plasty and worthless and up to mischief. AA'e are doing many things in the Philip pines. and ail must help the Filipinos, the “antis" to the contrary notwith standing. It is a rare day when the “chug.

The days are getting glum. The trees are bare. Old Boreas has come To chill he air. The katydids now toot In raucous tones and flat: “Oh, shoot, brothers, shoot That white draw hat.” The chestnut's getting ripe. We start to sneeze. Beside the flat's steam pipe The pup’s at ease. The days now quickly scoot. The turkey's getting fat. So. shoot, brothers, shoot That white straw hat. Oh. baseball's on the droop. The overcoat is brushed. Too cold to spark on stoop. The ice man's hushed. The Coney barker's mute. Sleepy is the cat. So. shoot, brothers, shoot That white straw hat. We hear the oal man's boom. And dread his bills. The golden rod's in bloom On hazy hih3. The cricket's squeaky lute Means simply that You must shoot, shoot, shoot That white straw hat. —New York Sun. it is now open time on straw hats. The unhappy days are here for woodcock and partridge. There is a gorgeous full moon sailing the heavens, these nights. It must be gratifying to all con cerned that the famous "sawdust case” is Anally closed. While waiting for the open time on deer, they are hunting burglars up in Aroostook. Dowdoin and Colby do not open till next week, but the football men are getting back. Biddeford Journal: The suggestion tiiarwe burn wood as Tong as coal is high is like advising people to eat cake when they cannot get bread. The Bath young men have organized ‘a Bachelors’ Club, but we will wager that it will not survive one real earn est onslaught by the Bath buds. There is no resisting them. Sheriff-elect Cummings of Andros coggin laughed loud and long at the story In a Portland paper that he was coming to Cumberland county to get liquor deputies to help him. "Honest Sam” Lord of Saco, com plains that the Maine Register allows him less votes by 1000 in ISOS than he actually received. The details are ali right, but an incorrect addition was made. There never was a time when men who believe themselves endowed with the eagle eye and massive brain of a sleuth had so many avenues of useful ness open before them as at present. A dozen or more mysteries are await ing soiution in the State of Maine. There may not be much money in it for the amateur Sherlock Holmes, but there are wide and thick slices of honor and fame for the man who picks up any one of the blind trails and fol lows the criminal to his lair. A Lewiston Journal correspondent urges that the Maine State Agricul tural Society ought to be reorganized. He judges that the assets of the so ciety are worth about $20,000 and he thicks they would sell for that to an association formed of the best farmers and stock growers and other industrial representatives of the whole State. He urges that the handicap of the life member ticket, not to mention the dead head system, which to be sure has al ready been cut off. will prevent the so ciety ever being able to square up. He predicts that it will be found that the debts of the corporation will exceed $35,000. The society lost $.".(*00 at the recent fair on account of having a rain storm on what would have been the best day of the show, and there is the $2".00 verdict against it. now in the law courts. If the society be reorgan ized. it would be enabled to pay an ex cellent percentage on its liabilities, dispose of the life memberships and win out. Its property is the most cen trally located for a Stale exhibition of any property in Maine, and it is splendidly equipped. With good busi nes“ management and enterprise, such as was shown hv the Brockton fair, the Maine State Society will average $10, 000 a year profit. Dr. G. Langley Crockett modestly al lows that somebody else should have an opportunity to carry on the great work he has been doing in Knox county and so has resigned as chair man of the executive committee of the Jackson Club and from the town com mittee of Thomaston. He will still keep his place as the Knox repre sentative on the State committee and confidently expects to do for the whole State in 1900 what he has been doing for his own county. The whole number of new voters registered in Portland for the State election this year was 571, says the Maine Coast Cottage.

Thomas of North Vassalboro, is a farmer who does business in small fruits, though not on a small scale. This season he has marketed 10 bushels of peaches, 25 bushels of plums, 35 bushels of blackberries, 5 bushels of currants, and 5 bushels of black raspberries. Mr. Thomas' farm is largely in Winslow, being on what is known as Reynolds' hill, one of the highest points of land in that part of the county. He has large apple orchards which will be bearing in a few years. Relieving that beauty of landscape is restful to the soul and helpful to the body, and also believing that it is in harmony with the teachings of history both secular and sacred that birth places of great personages shall be fittingly marked, the National Doro thea Dix Memorial Association are se curing funds for beautifying the birth place of Dorothea Lynde Dix in Hampden. They propose to transform the worn out riverside farm of 20 acres which they now own on which Miss Dix was born, April 4, 1S02, into a beautiful park, free to all. For this purpose they will hold their annual fair at Harmony hall, Hampden Cor nor, October 15 and 16. All friends who appreciate true merit and who would honor the memory of Dorothea Lynde Dix are invited to assist by contribu tions of articles for the sale, mem bership fees of $1.00 and by sending names of children with five cents each for the Honor Roll. The officers are: President. Mrs. Helen Coffin Reedy, 208 Kssex street, Bangor; secretary, Mrs. Louise M. Reed, Hampden Cor ner; treasurer, Mrs. Jane H. Spofford, Hampden Corner. A Wesley correspondent enters a loud complaint of the depredations of the bears among the sheep and young cattle of that section. According to the present laws, however, the farmers may receive some recompense, for the State pays for all sheep and cattle killed by bears when the proper town officials are notified within -4 hours after the finding of the carcass. There must be ample proof, however, that the killing was done by Bears and moreover nothing can be collected for the sheep 'killed where the evidence is never found. While this latter pro vision is. of course, a necessary one it means that in a place like Wesley the farmers will lose many sheep for which they will never be paid, owing to the fact that the sheep will be killed in the woods where the carcass or no part of it will ever be found. When the present law was passed the old law by which the State paid a bounty of 6"i on all bears killed was repealed. The change, it was thought, would be more satisfactory to the farmers, although it encountered the opposition of hunt ers and trappers. But now the bears have commenced to increase at such a rapid rate that the farmers them selves have commenced to complain. Those who have lost their sheep and cattle at Wesley say that had the old law been continued the chances are that bruin would have been caught be fore ho could have done the damage that has now been done. Another fea ture of the law relating to those ani mals which forbids anyone hunting or trapping them on any unorganized township or plantation without first taking out a license permitting them to do so. This is another reason why these destructive animals are increas ing so fast about Wesley. The princi pal bear country is beyond the limits of the town where no one can trap them without first paying for that privilege by taking out a license. This the trappers generally have refused to do and unless this feature is removed or the bounty restored a still further increase is sure to result. The Canadian government has ap propriated $10,000 to build a barbed wire fence along the boundary be tween Montana and the Dominion, ex tending from St, Marys lake to the Sweet Orass hills. .Permanent Muscular Strength, There is this to be borne in mind in these days when so many young men are giving so much attention to physi cal development, in gymnastic and athletic exercises, that there cannot be permanent muscular strength where there is not blood strength.
