Forty thousand graves, dot ting the hills and vales of a dozen ceme teries, felt the caress of loving hands and forty thousand heroes sleep this afternoon beneath the benediction of another Memorial! Day.

rr Never before has the day been sO reverently observed in Washington. Never before has the thinning ranks of the veterans spoken so eloquently of the days “that tried men's sous” and of the fact that one by one the survivors are answering the last roll call. So, appreciating this, the thcu sands who lined the path of march to day gazed with misty eyes upon the handful that remained awhile from the ranks, broken though they were and falteringly formed, welled answering tears as memory traveled backward over the vears to the days when the step was lighter and the ranks were full. It is little wonder then that the younger gencration wished to show by bared heads and quickening hearts fits veneration for the silver-haired vet erans who still feebly march within the ranks, as well as those whose graves, some unmarked, but none for Ee gotten, are the spots to which all Washington turned its face today. Washington’s Own Day. Decoration Day is an occasion pe cultarly Wasnington's own. It was here that the saviours ¢f the nation planned and prayed for its salvaiion; it was here that the eaemy’s goal lay; it vvas here that the martyred Lincoln fell and where afterward Grant lived to moul! anew a nation, which In the words of the martyred Fresiden,, “shall not perish from the earth.” Therefore, ir was fitting that the fac tory should be still, that the shop shculd be closed, that the workman and the capitalist might be idle, and that those who have learned either through ex perience or tradition of the travail through which their ancestors passed in the sixties, might again immortal ize the custom of keeping green the graves of sleeping patriots. In every cemetery there were gathered appreciative, earnest throngs. Almost every hand bore a wreath and over every marble slab at some time during the day bent a form perhaps, that of a fellow comrade, uverhaps that of a littie child, which left on the grave of some hero a simple but eloguent tri bute that he had not died in vain. Visit All Cemetries. To Arlington, Congressional, Soldiers’ Home, Oak Hill, i.ake Forest, Holy Rood, Mt. Olivet, Battle Ground, StL Mary's Glenwood, St. Elizabeth, Pros pect Hill, Rock Creek, and Harmony cemeteries the adoring pilgrims came, and from the most elaborate ceremoniex #t Arlington to the more simple ones that marked the observance of the day, where fewer of the nation’s dead are buried, the day was one never to be forgotten.

At 10 o'clock this morning the Grand Army of the Republic, the United Spanish War Veterans, and the Army and Navy Union Veterans formed at Pennsylvania avenue and Fourteenth street and headed by the Marine Band, the National Guard Band, and detach ments from the District Naticnal Guard, began to parade through the city.

A large number of distinguished guests, including the President of the United States, were present when the exercises at the amphitheater were formally opened at 12 o'clock by the na tional salute, fired by the United States Field Artillery. Representative John J. Esch of Wisconsin delivered the me morial address, his oration being de voted mainly to impressing upon the younger generation the proper rever ence for Deacoration Day, and the suf ferings undergone by the veterans as sembled about him. In part he said: “In these changeful and material istic days we are prone to forget the valorous deeds of our fathers and the principles for which they gladly suffered sickness, wounds, and death. If absence of public dangers has begotten apathy and want of patriotism let this day's teachings reinvigorate our minds and hearts with the knowledge of the couir ageous deeds done by veterans living

and dead. Let the story of a single battle, imperfectly narrated though it be, kindle in us a feeling of admiration for the Am-<rican soldier and of grati tude that in his bravery and devotion the Repuhlic has its chief bulwark. Tolay and Tomorrow. “The children of today will become leaders of Lomorrow. Wise leaders are always mindful of the past and try to guide the people by the light which the past furnishes in the way of expe rience and inspiration. This memorial celebration should teach us what loyal ty and patriotism mean and its signifi cance will be lost unless we understand that the essence of patriotism and loy aly is sacrifice. It was the great sacri fice of health and life that s.ould make us feel graceful for being permitted to live in a co.ntry where tnousands free ly sacrificed all that it might be united and free.” In paying tribute to Lincoln, Repre sentative Esch concluded: “For four awful years he played the title role in the greatest daraina of his tory. His very first utterances were eageriy heard. As the days, months, and years rolled on the great inasses of people perceived that a master mind ‘was running the Government. With what skill and pathos he touched a re sponsive cherd in the hearts of the people let his words bear witness. In Closing his first inaugural! address he seid: I am loath to close. We are not enemies but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained. t must not break ou: bonds of affection. The mystic chords of mem-~ ory stretching from every battlefield ana patrict's grave 0 every living heart anc hearghstone all over this broad lana will swell the chorus of the Union when again touched, as surely they will be by tue bette: angels of our nature.’ “The life of Lincoln has lessons for us as individuals. He was helpful, always willing to lend a hand. He was gener ous, always willing 19 Sve more than he took. He was unselfish, yielding that which was right by his own. He was not jealous, giving prefermefit to his rivals, He was simple and true, hating all shams, He was ambitious, but pride was not in hin. Above all he was hon esl, and “Honest Old Abe’ was a title more highly esteemed by him than all the titles of royalty. “Truly, irraspective of party or of sec tion, we may say in the words of Stan ton uttered at the martyr's bedside: Now he belongs to the ages.” Program at Cemetery.

Thousands to Lose Their Jobs If Filibuster lasts Over Today —Representative Tawnev Minnesota Congressman Pictures Dire Results to Pen sioners From “Senseless” Maneuvering of Mi nority in the Senate. Thousands of men and women em ployed in the Government Printing Of fice will be deprived of work and salary if the filibuster in the Senate does not end today. Moreover an indefinite postponement in the June payment of certain pensions will result from the filibuster if it con tinue3 longer than ioday, These are the startling facts set forth by Chairman Tawney, of the Com mittee on Appropriations of the House. In explaining the situation Mr. Tawney said: “While the patriotic people of cur country are decorating the graves of the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the Union, Senator La Follette and a few Democrats are indulging in a fili buster in the Senate which, if persisted in beyond today, will cause an indefi nite postponement in the June payments of the pensions due the widows of those thus mourned and.of the pensions of the veterans who survived that awful struggle. **pheir folly will also suspend after ‘today the execution of printing work for the Government at the printing office and will throw out of employment in that institution thousands of working "men and women who toil therein for daily wages. “Never in the history of Congress has a minority party pursued the policy of 4libustering with less cause or with ;aore serious consequences to the Gov ernment than th one prosecuted in the House during the last two months, and the one now in progress in the Senate. m—— “The generzl deficiency appropriation RUSSIA PREPARES TO ENFORCE DEMANDS Revolt Reaches Stage Beyond the Power of Persian Shah to Handle. ST. PETERSBURG, May 30.—~Though both the Russian foreign office and the Turkish legation here continue to give reports that the internal disorders in Fersia will be settled by June 10, the time limit set by Russia, it was evident today that Russia Is preparing to send soldiers to the Shah's land to enforce her demands. The most pitiable figure in the whole affair is the Shah. The situation has got beyond him, and the revolt seems to be under capable leadership. Russia has demanded the subjugation of the frontier tribesmen, under penalty of in vasion by Russian soldiers. The anti Russian feeling, as evidenced ii the outbreaks at Teheran, is such that for the Shah to attempt to carry out the Czar's demand would be to precipitat. an open rebellion.

SENATE USES CLUB AGAINST DEMOCRATS Stone Relieves La Follette After Record Talk, and Will Continue as Strength Lasts. FILIBUSTER RECORDS fe Senator La Follette, in opposi tion to Aldrich-Vreeland currency bill, spoke continuously eighteen hours and 20 minutes. Senator William Vincent Allen of Nebraska, in October, 1893, de feated the repeal of the silver purchase clause of the Sherman law by talking fourteen consecu tive hours, Senator Thomas H. Carter of Montana, in March, 1900, killed ‘the river and harbor bill by a filibuster of several hours on the ‘last day of the session. Senator Carmack of Tennes see, with the aid of Senate Demo ‘crats, in March, 1907, killed the ship subsidy bill by a successful filibuster. Senator Gorman of Maryland, in 1893, led Senate Democrats in a filibuster that killed the force bill. After having been in session continu ously since 11 o'clock Friday morning, throughout which time the filibuster against the Aldrich-Vreeland currency bill has been in progress, the Senate at 1.235 o'clock this afternoon took a recess for thirty minutes. This action was taken on motion of Senator Aldrich of Rhode Isjand. In moving a recess he pointed out that the session had lasted more than twenty four hours, and it was desirable for the comfort and convenience of Senators that a brief respite be taken. But he served notice on those conducting ths filibuster that for himself he was will. ing to remain here for weeks longer. Just preceding the motion to take a recess Senator Foraker of Ohio raised a point of order against Senator Stone of Missouri, who spoke continuously from 7 o'clock in the morning until 1:25 in the afternoon. Senator Foraker's point was that without leave of the Senate the Senator from Missouri had no right to continua to read as he has heen doing under the guise of engaging in debate. Senator Foraker withheld his point of order temporarily in the expectation that it would be passed on by the chair following the recess. Reads Senate Rule, It support of his point of order Senator Foraker read from the standing rules of the Senate and from Jefferson's manual, the only rules by which the Senate is guided to show that urder rone of the rules did a Senator have the authority to read in the place any matter without the consent of the Sen ate. ‘““Fhe privilege of the Senatcr.” sald Senator Foraker, “is to speak. It is his privilege to address the Senate by speaking and not by reading from works of fiction and other volumes as the Sen ator fr in Wisconsin did here yesterday. It isn't the privilege of the Senator from Missouri te hold us here for six hours reading from various documents instead of speaking and then to start in on a volume of 5% or 6X pages, as he is doing, with a view evidently of in flicting that upon us.” Needs Unanimous Consent. Senator Foraker argued that because this rule was seldom inforced that a Senator had to have unanimous consent before reading any matter was no indi caticn that the rule did not exist. In case Senators engaged in a fili buster are prevented from reading with ou' unanimous consent, it is apparent that the difficulty of protracting tie discussion of the currency bill will be greatly Increased. Senator Foraker's point of order, if upheld, will go far to shorten the filibuster. Find a New Club, The most sensational feature of the attempt of the Republican leaders to tire out Senator La Follette and make kim conduct his filibuster alone, and thereby exhaust himself, was disclosed today, when it became Known that the public buildings bill is being held as a club over the heads of Sena. tors who have shown a disposition to aid the Wisconsin Senator,

This became known today, shortly af ter Senator La Follette surrendered the floor at 7 o'clock to Senator Stone of Missouri, who promised to carry on the filibuster as long tse his voice and strength held out.

CE Gore Threatened. When the leadegs got together early this morning, after Senator Stone took the floor, it was decided that Senator Gore would be informed that if he per sisted in his determination to help Mr. 7,a Follette by making a speech the ap propriation gwould be stricken from the public buildings bill, which is now in conference. Other Senators who have spent con sider ible time during the session to get ‘a slice of the pork barrel for their con stituents have refrained from openly assisting Mr. La Follette, because of tls attitude on the part of the Repub lives: leaders, Proselyting went on in the Senate all night, many Democrats being 1aken into 1 Ticpublican cloak room where the

g'tuisiior was made perfectly plain. §.ato: Aldrich did not hesitate to g© oi>r to the Democratic side of the chamber, engage in conversation and then leed a Senator into the midst of the Republicans.

Culberson Given Welcome. When, finally, Senator Culberson of Texas, the Democratic leader, nofichal antly strolled over and joinad some of his associates he was greeted with loud shouts of welcome. He did not remain long, however, after Senator La Fol Jette had protested against the disturb ance in the Republican cloak room. When Senator La Follette ceased gpeaking this morning he had estab lished a new record for continuous speaking in the United States Benate, he having consumed eighteen heurs and twenty minutes. Senator Aldrich announced that he desired a vote on the pending legisla tion, but Senator Stone, who had agreed ‘to relieve the Wisconsin Senator, in sisted that he wished to d.scuss the re port ané that he could not be derted. Senator Aldrich then remarked: *1 yield the flocr to the Senator from Missouri.” Bryan in the Fray. Once more the possibility of William Jennings Bryan becoming the determin ling influence in the filibuster developed is forenoon. It was learned that Mr. Bryan, who ‘4s now somewhere in southwest Ne

i braska campaigning, has sent urgent telegrams to number of Democratiz ‘Senators, asking them to get into the filibuster. When Senatcr Stone of Mis sougi took the floor this morning he ‘had such a telegram in his pocket. At 'Jeast a half dozen other Democrats have them.

At noon today a rellable minority aus thority said:

«y¢ the fight goes on till midnight I believe you will see the Democrats

ractically lined up with the Repub me in support of the filibuster. More than that, there will then be sorue ac cessions of insurgent Republican Sen ators, who have only wanted to be reasonably assured that therc was a chance #0 win, in order to get them into the game.

Mr. Bryan's influence is credited with part of the change in the Demo cratic attitude, but by no means all of it. The Republican leaders are charged with putting the screws on la Follette, ip .e application of the rules, with such unpiecedented rigor that the Democrats feel that all the presumed rigs of a minority in the upper cham ber are menaced. For them quietly 10 sit by and acquiesce in making a series of such precedents would be to submit to tieing their own hands in all the future whenever their party shail be the minority. They are gettirg hourly more restive under this menace.” Stoume Starts at 7 0’Clocke Senatcr Stone, beginning at 7 o'clock proceeded to a discussion of the cur rency question. He spoke in a lcw tons and took the situation with a placidiy and calmpess that was exasperating tc Senators who were compelled to listen He put a number of queries to Sen ator Aldrich, which that gentleman an swered with a completeness he had not been willing to show when he was questicned by Senator La Follette.

Once Senator Scott protested ihat he could not hear the Senator from Mis souri. Wkercupon Senator Stone replied that if Senators had any difficulty in hearing his remarks and found them entertaining they could move closer. Teller Impatient. Senator Teller of Colorado also showed impatience because Senator Store spoke in such a low tone. He threatened to make a rule compelling the Misouri Sen ator to speak louder. “I don't know of any rule,” said Sen ator Stone in his drawling tome, ‘‘that can make a Senator raise his voice, 1 don’t think you can compel a Senator to raise his voice when he's speaking &s loud as he can.” Whereupon, Senator Teller relapsed in to silence.

Soon after Senator Stone got tne floor, Senator Gore raised the point of no quorum. Senator Sutherland was in the chair. Once more the ‘‘gag’ was ap plied vigorously. He ruled that Senator Gore was not in order.

I appeal from the decision of the chair.” “That also 1s not in order,” said the presiding officer,

Gore Protests. Senator Gore protested vainly against such tactics. He said the Senate rules aid not contemplate rulings of this sort. Bur his protests were not effec tive. From time to time Senator Stone read newspaper clippings relati to the currency bill and AERA to the Aldrich-Vreeland proposition. The morning dragged along wearily. Ten 10 a dozen Senators sat about yawning, while others slept in the cloakrooms or went to their committee rooms, where they rested in readiness for any emer gency. Senator Aldrich stuck to his closely and was seldom lon from fre chamber. g Absent ortly after Stone began his speech, Aldrich interrupted to inquira ein or not it was true that Stone had come back to Washington “in the interests of a certain Presidential candidate,” re iferring to Bryan. He called attention 10 the newspaper reports that it was at {Bryan's request that Stone had come Lc the assistance of La Follette, The Missouri Senator denied that he tad been commissioned by Bryan. Plans were laid early today to break the filibuster and predictions were free ly made in Republican quarters about the Capitol that a vote would be had on the conference report some time to night or as soon as Senator La Fol lette sought to get the floor again" in Jig own right. read and spoke and then had a mixture the despair of the official stenographers, It is expected an effort will be made to prevent him from speaking again on the ground that he has already spoken twice.

the night, and he declared that he felt almost as fresh as when he began his filibuster yesterday. “1 don’t feel the least bit sleepy,” said the Senator, ‘and my voice has held out well. 1 oniy fee! the effects of the long seige on my feet.” After bathing his face in cold water the Senator went to the Senate barber shop, where he was shaved. He then got on a street car and. went to his home, having refused to take a cab which friends had provided. Two Speech Rule. Senator Aldrich and the committee on rules have dug up another gag rule in the archives which provides that a Senator who speaks on the same sub ject twice during one legislative day may not again resums the floor to re sume his discussion cf the same subject. This plan was imparted to Senator La Follette by a friend. “I have not had the floor on two dais tinct occasions,” sald the Senator, “‘un Jess they try to rule that when Senator Foraker made the Joiat that 1 was out of order, I] made one speech, and that when I continued may remarks I made another, If such a construction is put on the objection which was made to my remarks I give fair warning that the ruling will be carrie¢ home to the Sen ators suporting it in &n unpleasant man ner. By means of that rule Senators who objected to continuous remarks by a colleague could rule him off the floor temporarily, even though they were not justified in doing so." Night Not Tedious. Because of the wonderful familiarity of the Senator with a great range of subjects, his readiness to send home biting sarcasm, his evident joy in hold ing up to ridicule the Republican lead ers who did everything in their power to check the former governor of Wis consin, prevented the night from becom ing tedious and unbearable. Although he read three books and dbalf a dcren pamphlets his voice never became monotonous, and he frequently cast aside his reading matter and strode up and down between the desks on the Democratic side of the chamber &8 he commented vigorously on some passage which met with his approval. it was at these times that the Senator was at his best. From the low but not expression less tones which marked his reading he slowly raised his voice until it rever brated out into the corridors, and oc casionally he struck a peculiar note which sounded like the sob of an un strung man, who had been injured. The Senator's confidence never de serted him. This was well illustrated early in the evening when, having in cidentally touched upon his pet hobby— the valuation of railways—he remarked smilingly: “If I knew how great my strength was I would have begun three or four days ago to have the Committee on In terstate Commerce discharged frem con sideration of my resolution providing for a valuation of the railroads.” “I don't know but what I'll do that when 1 get through with currency,” he added as an after thought.” Violation of Rules. Aside from the deep earnestness dis played when he was speaking extem poraneously the Senator was at his best when he directed the attention of every one in the chamber to violations of the rules by Senators Aldrich and Hale, two of his most bitter opponents. He had been rebuked so often for leaving his desk in the heat of argument that he decided to turn the tables. It fre quently occurred that when he was bel lowing out his sentences so loudly that no other sound could be heard, Mr. La Follette would discover the objects of his attack in conversation, and neces sarily speaking loudly in order to make themselves heard. Then he would stop in the middle of a sentence, or even in the middle ~f a and the silence which followed he sudden interruption of yhis ready

Both Senators immediately Lecame the cyno sure of all eves, whereupon they sheep isilly returned 1o their respective seats, There were so many roll calls that they could not well leave the chamber, and as it became necessary to frame up methods for the suppression of the ob structionist, these conferences were, therefore, held in the chamber, and every time a conversation was well started tne Senator ceased his speech, and grinned his pleasure as the gal leries laughed at the discomfiture of the offending statesmen. Senator Beveridgs semed to be the only one on the floor who really appreciated the humor of the situation. On several occasions when the speaker was at the height of a flow of oratory, Mr. Beveridge manip ulated his fingers and indulged In some supposed deaf and dumb conversation with a nearby colleague, Keeps Tab on Quorum. Senator Gore, the blind Senator from Oklahoma, also indulged his sense of humor. He would occasionally rise to his feet and remark: “1 see, Mr. President, that a quorum is not present, and I therefore maks a point of order.” The Senator kept a page at his sida who kept count of departing Zenators, Senator Carter of Montana, himself a veteran in long-distance talking coa tests, was engaged during the early part of the night, preventing the Wis consin Senator froma getting too many resting periods. He kept a tally sheet in hand and as soon as he observed that a point of “no quorum’ was imminent he ordered the Republican Senators in the cloakroom to suspend story telling, cast away their cigars, and return to the Hour after hour Senator La Foll:tte From time to time his secretary car ried a glass of egg and milk to his desk, and with the exception of two chicken sandwiches this was the cnly nourish ment he had from the time he began his record-breaking sneech until he fin ished.

dertaking such a nerve-racking task. He had but recently left his sick-bed, and when he entered the Senate yesterday he was still suffering from the trouble which confined him to his home. He was provided with a small vial of pills which he used during the night. Up to mianight Mr. La Follette en joved a five-minute respite very fre quently by remarking, with mock 8or TOW: “I am very rorroy, Mr. President, but 1 feel that I must cali attention to the fact that there is no quorum present.’ The Speaker had made a similar re mark thirty-two times, and, as a re sult, obtained a flve-minute rest on each occasion, when the patience of Senator Aldrich was exhausted.

From that hour on the proceedings became zomewhat dull.

Warren Reads Novel. iba (obs Senator Warren of Wyoming was ab sorbed throughout the night in a novel.

He was apparently disturbed during the quiet which prevailed when Mr. la Follette indulged in an aside with Senator Paynter. a a— “We cannot hear the Senator on thig side of tha chamber,” protested Mr. Warren witn well-assumed interest, He then resumed the perusal of his novel

“Oh, 1 amn so sorry,” rejoined Sena tor La Follette with fine sarcasm, “but as 1 desire to save my voice I would suggest to the Senator that since he hes evidenced such intense interest in my remas¥s he come over and take a clair near me.”

Mr. Warren ignored the replv and when, a short time later he finished the novel, he went to sleep on a couch.

Although he found it impossible to speak extemporaneously throughout the night Senator LaFeollette varied his reading and speaking so that it did not become monotonous. The galleries were crowded until 11 o'clock, and earlier in the evening there were long lines of men and women standing in the corri 40rs walting to gain admittance. In the Senators’ gallery was Miss Fola La Follette, a daughter of the Senator, who appeared recently in “Bluffs.” Miss La Folletts remained throughout the night ard was so absorbed in her fath er's remarks that it was with difficulty that her friends prevailed on her to go to the Senate restaurant at midnight and take supper. The daughter's in terest in the speech was, apparently, nol much more than that evidenced by the men who occupied the public gal lery, which was well filled until day Higat streamed in through the glass ceiling and softened the glow of the hidden electric bulbs. Starting off at noon with a discussion of the matter directly before the Senate Mr. La Fol lette took up nearly every bit of legis lation of any importance at this ses sion of Congress. History, finance, tariff, conservation of the natural re sources of the country, ¥he Constitution, campaign ublicity, the Government employes’ lability blll, Government re ports, newspaper editorials, and an edi torial in Puck were a few of the sub jects he took up nnd he devoted to each of nem tha same characteristic energy. j= i

Strong After Speech.

When, st 7 o'clock, Senator La Fol lette suspended ‘for the time being.” as he raid, hls vdice was as strong as when he began. Until the present performance by Sen ator La Follette the best speaking rec ord In the Senate was held by Senator Allen of Nebraska, who, in 1833, held the floor for fourteen hours and ten min utes in v pposition to the repeal of the tilver purchasing clause of the Sher man act. He lost the fight, but won a record for having talked longer than any Senator had ever been known to talk in the past. His record pales intc significance, however, when compared with that of Senator La Follette be cause bv unanimous consent he was

rmitied to have long articles read y the clerk, and this time was included in his fourteen-hour record. Senator Carter held the floor for a week about ten years ago, when he talk ed the rivers and harbors bill to death Mr, Carter did not talk continuously, however, for he had plenty of suprort. ers who relleved him and gave him op portunity to eat and sleep. of reading and interjections which wers who had hoped that they might borrow and pamphlets from the Sen A fillbucter begun by Senator Car mack of Tennessee just prior to his retirement from the Senate in the Fifty ninth Congress, was not the longest on record. but it is regarded as the most brilliant in the history of the Sen &te.

The frequency with which residents of the District, especial} y children, are be ing bitten by dogs, is being brought sharply to the attention of the physi clans and District authorities. Another case came to notice todays when Margaret wallace, a five-year-old girl, of 1621 ‘Thirteenth street northwest, was bitten on the hand this morning by a stray dog supposed to be mad. The child was taken to the office of I'r. Mc Gee, 1355 Corcoran street, whore the wound was cauterized and every known precaution taken to prevent hydro phobia. Sentiment seems tc be growing among residents of the District that steps should be taken at once to effectively abolish danger of the spread of the disease. This has caused the Commis sioners to consider the matter seriously. in addition to the resolutions passed by the Veterinary Association of the District, declaring that the authorities should order all dogs muzzled, many let ters are being received by the Commis sioners urging them to take action at once. In view of the increase in the number of cases of persons being bitten by dogs, they have been urged, not only to order all dogs muzzled, but to direct that dogs be kept on the owner's prems Ises unless restrained by a leash on the street. Dr. A. D. Melvin, chief of the Bu reau of Animal Industry, of the De partment of Agriculture, has stated that rabies could bg eliminated from the country entirely, if all dogs could be muzzled. This, he says, should ap ply to all dogs, domestic pets, such as terriers and poodles, as well as tramp mongrels, The latter, he advises, should be put out of harm's way. DENSE FOG BANK TIES UP TRAFFIC Liners Drop Anchor and Excur sions Out of New York Are Abandoned NEW YORK, May 30.—Held by dense banks of fog, tarough which lookouts could not see fifty feet, five large steam ships and a fleet of coastwise vessels are outside Sandy Hook, and harbor and river traffic is at a standstill. Only by the merest chance were a number of accidents avoided by the river craft. The incessant din of fog horns, sig nal bells, and sirens can be heard ior miles, and little hope is heid by the steamship officials of the fog lifting be fore late in the afternoon. For more than twelve hours the French line steamship Provence has been at anchor a mile outside the Sandy ‘Hook light, while nearby are the Celtic, cf the White Star line; the Campania, of the Cunard lire; the Bermudian, of the Quebec Steamship Company, and the ‘biggest of the Ward Line coastwise flee*, the Mexico. Including the crews on these vessels, there are more than 500 persons held up on the boats by the fog.

One of the narrowest escapes reported so far was that of the Governor's is land ferryboat, Generali Hancock. The captain of the Bronx, one of the muni cipal Staten Island ferryboats, which was just about to enter its slip at the Battery, keard the Hancock's warning whistle, and even after the engine of the larger boat had been reversed ii was not until the Bronx's bow had grazed the little boat's stern that tha ferry came to a stop. Had the boat been a second late in stopping the Han cock would have been crushed. Another escape was that of the New York, New Haven, and Hartford raii road transfer boat, Express, and Penn sylvania annex ferryboat, No. 4, off the barge office. No attempt was made at maintaining a regular schedule on any of the ferry lines. At a snail's pace the boats went to and fro, blowing signals constantly, All excursions planned by steamboat companies for today were either aban doned or.delay2d so long that there was little use of the boats being started.

The bravery which sailors of the President's yacht Mayflower displayed, when fire broke out in the magazine vn the water front of the United States Navy Yard, threatening the destruc tion of the boat and endangering the lives of many persons who were in the immediate vieinity, is the one topic of conversation at the navy yard today. Shortly after 7 o'clock last evening smoke was discovered issuing from un der the eaves of the magazine, which is a one-story brick building, about fif teen by twenty feet in dimension, lo cated a few feet from the water's edge, near the western boundary of the yard. Tied to a wharf not 200 feet east of the magazine, lay the Mayflower. Separat ing the vessel and the magazine is a sixty-foot slip. Something more than two tons of pow der was stored in the little brick build ing. As the smoke wafted up from the roof it could be seen from many parts of the yard. Cries of “Fire!” came from every direction. An alarm of five was sent in, the navy yard department being the first to arrive. Under eom mand of Chief Belt, severel companies of the District Fire Department re sponded. As soon as the blaze was discovered the greatest excitement prevailed.

The members of the Ninth Street Christian Churcli have organized a “Three Hundred Club,” to raise funds for the purpose of paying off the in debtedness on the bullding. The required membership already has been secured, and the church is now paying JI its building debt at the rat® of $800 month, each member of the club contributing $1 a month for this purpose. The success of the movement is at tributed to the active work of the Rev. George A. Miller, who took charge of the pastorate about a year ago. It is hoped to pay the entire church debt of $14,000 within the next three years. While Mr, Miller has been in charge of the church the building has been put in thorough repair, recarpeted, and repainted. H=2 also has bwit up a men’s class, with an average attendance of about sixty. It is said that the clab, while pri marily designed as a “Three Hundred Club,” will not be confined to this num ber, but that the lists are still open for the addition of members, who may he either members of the church or nut, it being exnrected that the citizens of the Northeast generally will assist in the movement.

TROOPERS ENGAMP IN FREDERICK, ND Will Have Hardest Part of March Tomorrow, Across Mountains. FREDBRICK, M4. May 30.—Company G clattered into Frederick last night at 7 o'clock, with the command still intact after a hard day's ride. Covered with dust and nearly fagged out, the iong column of troopers moved through the historic town with the wagon train rumbling close in the rear, much the same as Andrew Jackson's command hgd done about half a century before. Thirty-three miles had been covered since the troops left Camp Smiley, in Rockville, at 8 o'clock in the morning. The first halt was Gaithersburg, which was reached at 9:45, and after a short rest the column pushed on and passed through Nelivilie an hour later. A mile to the east of Clarksburg the men aalted for lunch. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon the march was resumed, and at Clarksburg the troop was joined by Private Carlin, who had just came up from Washing ton. Hyattstown was reached about 3, and a halt made to rest. Approach Frederick. “Forward” was then sounded and the command passing through Urbana at last sighted Frederick. The advance of the column was much retarded by the wagon train, which was unable to keep up on fccount of the heavy loads. If it had not been for this fact the troops would have broken their last year's record by half an hour. Although they neared Frederick at 6 o'clock a long halt was necessary to allow the wagons to catch up. The camp was named “Camp New myer” in appreciation of the efforts of Maj. E. H. Newmyer, commissary gen eral of the National Guard, in behalf of G Company. He not only materially aided in procuring the equipment for this trip, but always has been a stanch friend and loyal supporter of the com pany, All Are Tired. Most of the boys spent the evening in Frederick, after they were relieved from duty, but some retired early to make up for the two-hour sleep of the night be fore. So far there has not been a sin gle mishap of any note, and the com mand is in exactly the same state as It was when it left Washington Thursday evening. The chef “Davy Jones,” has gained the reputation of being peerless in his profession. The command is spending today at Camp Newmyer, and enjoying all that the town affords. This afternoon a party of friends is expected from Wash ington, and will be entertalned at the camp. Tomorrow's march from here ‘to Charleston will probably be the hard est of the whole trip, as the road crosses two ranges of mountains, the Catoctin and Blue Ridge, and is thirty miles long. However, the boys are in good trim, and expect to accomplish it without any trouble WILLARD REED MISSING. The police have been asked to locate Willard C. Reed, twenty-f~ur years of age, who has been missing from his home, 718 Virginia avenue southeast, since May 26. Reed left the house about 7 o'clock in the merning, saying he was going to work.

AUTOIST KILLED UN PINLICO TRACK hd Speeding Machine Wrecked, Breaking Neck of Cham pion Cedrino.

BALTIMORE, May 30.—~Emanuel Ced #no, the noted Italian automobile driv or, was killed on the Pimlico race track Yesterday afternoon, With his brother, who was his mechanician, he was rounding a curve to the west of the grandstand when the Fiat car he was driving skidded and turned over. Cedrino was thrown against the track fence and his neck broken. His brother escaped unhurt.

j

Rip a Cedrino came here to take part in the races today and took his car out on the track to get it in good running order. The grandstand was almost filled with onlookers, and as the Italian sent the heavy machine a mile in fifty-one sec onds in his first attempt, only one second more than the track record, there was a prolonged cheer. Cedrino left the track for a few minutes and then returned Jor another trial. i

EH tx SE REE rm The powerful car snorted and hissed as he turned on the power the second time and then shot ahead at lightning speed. I. was apparent that he meant to break the record if he could. As the machine rounded the first turn his brother, on the seat beside him, leaned far out and the car riegotiated the curve nicely. Then it straightened out and sped for the second turn. As this was reached the same tactics were pursued, but, coming about directly in front of the Pimlico Hotel, the car started to skid and the front wheel collapsed.

re we IRI IR in A“ i Throng Horrified.

There was a cry of horror from the throng present as the car tipped, dug into the track, and then shot into the air and overturned.

It all happened in an instant. Cedrino was hurled against the feuce and his neck struck a post like the snapper on a whip. His brother shat headlong up the track, and his escape from injury was nothing short of wonderful. The machine was reduced to a tangled mass of steel and kindling wood. J 3

“Oe

The horrified onlookers hurried to the spot and ithe first men who reached it quickly covered Cedrino’'s body with a blanket. Then a hurry cail was sent for the coroner and a physician.

1 J It was Cedrino’s ambition te break all of his former récords at the races nere. His car was entered in the 1% mile contest tomorrow, and he also in tended irying to lower the world's mark tor twenty-five miles. 0 Ry, ar 3 Daring Autoist. S450 Cedrino bore a world-wide reputation as one of the most daring men that ever held the wheel of an automobile. He repeatedly chalienged death, and scveral times narrowly escaped from its grasp. It was frequently said of him that he was as reckless as Barney Oldfield, yet as confident as his ccun tryman, the famous Lancia. A tragic end has been predicted for each and every automobile driver of wide reputa tion, and Cedrino was no exception. Household $7.50 $s ..$11.50 rvrwr veren i It was in the fall of 1934 that Cedrino made his debut in this couniry. He then had won a name fer himself in Europe, and for some time was chauf feur to Queen Helena of Italy. Shortly after ncon it was announced that the body would be taken to New York on the Pennsylvania train leav ing Baltimore at 6:35.

oi SP body will be held there awaiting the orders of Mrs. Cedrino as to wheth er it will be buried on Long Island or taken to Italv. i i

Lamson {s a man who, in his more dignified hours, instructs the young mird in zoology, or biology or some kird of ology. His batting form looked like an ology or an ism, it was so beszutifully theoretical. Three times he struck out. Each time he turned sadly back toward the bat ters’ bench and murmured: “Now, that's funny. I certainly ought to have hit that ball” Three times his theory failed. Then came the triumph.

W. ‘THE WASHINGTON TIMES, SATURDAY, MAY 30, 1908. 3 At this Season FOR YOUR APPETITE WARRIOR COCKATOO DEAD IN LONDON With Colonel Hay, Bird Passed Through Every Engagement of the Indian Mutiny LONDON, May 30.—There recently died at Leith Hall, the family seat of ‘the Leith-Hays, of Rannes and Leith ‘Hall, Aberdeenshire, a survivor of the Indian mutiny; ne’. a soldier nor a pen sioner of the civil service, but a bird— a cockatoo, to be exact—whose career was out of the ordinary run of cock atocs. Its nistory is vouched for, not by a “nature faker,” but by a cor respondent of the Scotsman, a dignified newspaper. As to what the bird's age was, {it can he only hazarded. At the beginning of the Indian mutiny, when the Ninety-third Highlanders, then commanded hy the jate Colonel Leith-Hay, of Rannes and Leith Hall, formed a part of the attacking force on one of the rebel strongholds and carried it by assault, a large white suiphur crested Australian cockatoo, holding forth in Hindustani, was cap tured by a soldier of the regiment after the battle was over. Purchased by the colonel, provided with a cage and special bearer, the bird was present and under fire in every engagement during the Indian mutiny in which the Ninety-third was engaged. It passed through the whole campaign unscathed. Its narrowest escape was when a round shot took its bearer's head off. Brought home by its owner at the close of the mutiny campaign, for nearly half a century the cockatoo who, because of a gentle, affectionate disposition, was the pet of everybody, passed a tranquil life after the stormy scenes of the mutiny. MAROONED IN TREE; FAMILY IS RESCUED GALVESTON, Tex, May 320.—Allen Franklin, wife and two boys, aged four teen and six years, have been rescued from a tree where they had been marooned since Monday night. The water was ten feet deep around the large oak. Franklin was a well-to-do farmer in Washington county and lost his home, cattle and crops in the Brazos flood.

When their home was wrecked the family climbed into the big oak near the house, and when rescu were in a pitiable condition, but will all recover. On the roof of the house with the family was their bloodhound. When the home was wrecked the six-year-old boy fell into the torrent and the dog caught him as he was being swept away and swam with the child to the tree. The following day the dog swam out to floating wreckage and was carried away in the flood.

HOLMES” OLD BOND ALONE SUFFICIENT m——

i Former Statistician Need Not Furnish More Security for New Indictment.

Edwin S. Holmes, the former statis tician of the Bureau of Statistics of the Department of Agriculture, who was re indicted yesterday by the grand jury in connection with the “cotton leaks” ‘of 194, will not be required to furnish additional bonds, it Is understood. Holmes is now under $10,000 bonds pend ing a new trial, the first trial resulting in a disagreement of the jury.

As the result of an understanding be i tween the district attorney, of New York, and District Attorney Baker, in dictments against Theodore H. Price, the cotton broker, who figured in the Holmes trial; Frederick A. Peckham and Moses Haas, of New York, were returned Dy the grand jury in New York Simultaneously with the grand jury here, Peckham and Haas successfully fought €Xtradition three years ago, and could not be placed on urial witn Holmes, but the simultaneous indicuments in both cities will preclude any possibility of es cape from trial now, it is said. In the new indictments Price, Peckham, and Haas are charged with conspiriag to bribe Holmes, an official of the United States Government, to shape reports in reference 10 cotton to suit their pur poses, h

gefused to accept the post, Nowhere was the day more fittingly and reverently observed than at the National Cemetery, United Statas Sol diers’ Home. The face of every veteran kindled anew with the memories of the ration-saving conflicts of other days and every patriotic sentiment and song had its echo in a responsive aeart. The Rev. Abram Simon, D. D., was the crator of the day, and delivered an ad dress that thrilled every veteran and visitor present. A patrictic musical program was rendered by the Soldiers’ Home Band, which led the parade, which was composed of committees and officers of the Soldiers’ Home, orator, charlain, poet, and reader, the Gaelic chorus; Henry Wilson Post, No. 17, G. A. R.; J. J. Astor Command, Spanish War Veterans; Veterans of the home, invited guests, and visitors. i

The assembly was sounded at 9:45, when the parade formed at the Sen:ii building and marched to the speakers’ stand. The Rev. H. Allen Griffith, chaplair, offered the invocation: Dr. Thomas Calver recited an o rosm; Mrs. Nelile B. Kelser sang a soprano solo and afterward led a song by the Gaelic Chorus, and Miss Mary Ford was heard in “Columbia's Me morial Day.” The Rev. Edward Southgate offered the closing Foyer, and following the conclusion of the exercises at 11:50, the procession marched back to the 3cott building, where the ceremony of rals ing and saluting the flag took place. Representative Graff Speaks at Glenwood In an address In which he urged his hearers of the younger generation to study the privations undergone by the heroes whose graves were decorated to day, Representative Joseph V. Graff of Illinois made cqnspicuous the exercises held at Glenwood Cemetery this morn ing. The assembly at Glenwood at 9:30 o'clock followed the ceremony of strew ing flowers upon the graves of the ‘honored dead in Mt. Olivet Cemetery earlier in the morning. In addition to Representative Graff, others who par ticipated In the exercises at Glenwood were Miss Jda O'Neal, soloist; Comrade George A. Fleming, who read an origi nal poem; Chaplain William H. Honn, Master Wilbur Kellogg, bugler; Edward Webster, commander; H. H. House, adjutant, and Edward Keeler, who.read Lincoln's Gettysburg address. The ex ercises were under the direction of Ed ward Webster, commander, with George H. Thomas Post, No. 15, as sisted by Cushing Camp, Sons of Vet erans, and Richard J. Harden Camp, Spanish War Veterans.

Representative Graff, who paid a toyching tribute to the wearers of the blue, spoke, in part, as follows: “Without the aid of Government au thority, without statutory enactment or executive order forty years ago, on the 5th of May, a citizen of Illinois, the greatest volunteer soidier ever given to a nation, John A. Logan, issued an order addressed (2 his comrades of the recently formed organization of the Union soldiers of the disbanded Federal Army, designating the 13th day of May, ‘for the purpose of strewing with flow ers, or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of thelr country during the rebellion,’ and to which he adds both a hope and an ad monition: ‘Let no vandalisin of avarice or neglect, no ravages of time testify to the present or to the coming genera tions that we have forgotten as a pec ple the cost of a free and undivided re public. If other eves grow dull, other hands slack, and other hearts cold in the solemn trust, ours shall keep it well as long as the light and w th of life remain to us.’ “He created forty years ago a na tional mourning day tc do honor to the dead, to call the annual roll marking those that were mustered vut from year to year, to perpetuate the memory of the dead, and the high for fhe jead, Sad foo ugh, uipeses for Le RR HOMAGE PAID TODAY TO NATION'S DEAD i i 1 {Continued from First Pare.) being played while the tomb was decorated by a special committee from the auxiliary socleties.

Veterans Enjoy Program At National Cemetery the fires of patriotism while a trembling hand still remain to attend patriotic shrine, We forget that the war was fought by the young men of the coun try, the period of hope, confidence, faith, courage, activity, and zeal. All these are the necessary attributes of a soldier. “We are about to conclude a session of Congress with aipropristions ap proximating $1,008,000,000, a sum exceed Ing the aggregate expenses for all pur poses of war and peace for any Vvear of the period of the civil war. We have appropriated at the present session of Congress three times as large a sum as was sufficient for an entire four-year Adminisiration prior to 1861, and no por ular complaint seems to arise at these expenditures and the response from the people seems to only voice a regret that we could not expend larger sums for Governmental activity. “We are assembled at the most ap propriate spot in our land for these ceremonies. Here in the city of Wash ington was the central directing force of the great war. Here, at every point, greeting the eye, are visible reminders of its history, legislative, executive mil itary, and naval. Associated with this city most intimately were nearly every one of {ts great heroes. The actual op erations of the enemy approached its very gates. The White House, the Cap itol, Pennsylvania avenue, the Potomac —all are eloquent of those heroic days. “You men who still survive to celebrate this sacred day are indeed fortunate to witness the grand fruition of the great work wf which vou were a part. For tunate, indeed, is the man who can he Very sure, as are you, that a portion of his lifs has heen spent for an enduring cause, whose Llessings shall only in crease as generations pass ‘away and remain after the individual actors in the first great cause have long since gone and en forgotten.

“Wealth could not have purchased vou this priviledge and time cannot rob you of it. lL.et us hope that thé same hardy patriotic spirit will triumphant ly meet any future great crisis of our nation.” Hundreds Pay Tributes At Congressional Graves At Congressional Cemetery, where lie the remains of many an unforgotten soldier, hundreds gathgred at 10 o'clock to participate in the exercises, which in some respects were as comprehensive as those at the National Cemetery. A feature of the exercises here were the ceremonies held at the Pennsylvania ave rue bridge, following the regular pro gram, in honor of the sailor dead. These ceremonies were under the auspices of the Farragut Woman's Relief Corps, Edward P. Leeds, of Iowa, delivered an eloquent address upon the signi ficance of the day, and what it meant to the National! Capital. Col. John A. Joyce delivered an original poem and Col. George C. Ross réad Lincoln's fa mous Gettysburg address. The United States Engineer Band and the Met repolitan Baptist Church choir alter nated in appropriate musical selections. Mrs. Artaur G. Dunn sang two patriotic selections. The Rev. J. L. Brenizer de livered the invocation and benediction.

Jesse E. Wilson Speaks At St. Elizabeth Service _ Addresses by Assistant Secretary of ‘the Interior Jesse E. Wilson and Su perintendent Willlam A. White, of the hospital, marked the exercises at St. Elizabeth's Cemetery. Selections by the Children’s Chorus, composed of the pu pils of the Van Buren, Ketcham, and Congress Heights Schools; the Hospital Band and the Woodcraft Drum Corps, added materially to one of the most successful programs carried out at St. Elizabeth's in years. The decoration fea ture of the day, under the floral com mittee, in charge of Mrs. Emily A. Frisbie, was notably appropriate. The exercises began at 10:30 o'clock under the auspices of the John A. Logan Post, assisted by the Lincoln Camp, Sons of Veterans, the Junior Order of Rechabites, and the boys of Woodcraft. Short addresses were made by A. B. Frisbie, D. C. Fountain, B. J. Northcott, and the Rev. N. H. Miller, Eddie Mec Key played a cornet solo. The speeches of Dr. White and As sistant Secretary Wilson were listened to with rapt attention by the gathered hundreds, who were glad of another op portunity to pay tribute to the honored dead. Mr. Wilson sald in part: “When I think of what their services meant to the country, of what their de votion to duty meant, not only to the country then, but to the rising genera tion, and, although many of them have been unable to procure but little of the comforts of this life the lessons they have taught are of greater value to the young generation than the amassing of a large fortune, and when 1 look with a proper mark of respect at these pa triots and remember those who have gone before, I cannot help but think that I would rather leave my children the legacy they left theirs, or that they may leave theirs, in this regard, than the largest fortune ever made. “When we look around us and study the conditions of the present day we notice and find that selfish motives have sprung up in our commonwealth, with the spirit of entire disregard of the com mon good or of the law or of the or derly conduct of business. We are THE WASHIN TON TIMES, SATURDAY, MAY 30, 1905. 1 —From the Philadelphia Inquirer. ‘amazed to think that all those lessons ‘that have been taught by the sacrifices made, by the hardships and privations endured by the soldier in his support in upholding the law and constituted authority have been swept aside and forgotten, or if remembered at all wholly ignored. “1 firmly believe and hold that were it not for the unselfish and patriotic teachings and devotion to principle and of meetings of this character that more disorder, more disregard for the law, more disloyalty, more disrespect for the commonwealth, and for the common welfare of our country would exist today. These memorial exercises are conducted largely by the organization known as the Grand Army of the Re public. The survivors of our different Wars are passing away at the rate of more than 40,000 a year.” Mr. Wilson evoked the cheers of his hearers, when after reviewing the many reasons why he and other Americans loved the soldiers, made the following prediction concerning any nation who did not respect a soldier's uniform: “I love them for the uniform they wear, and I want to say now and for ail time and to impress fit upon the minds of those before me that misfor tune will certainly fall upon the nation and its people where the wealth of those who have obtained it by question able methods with disregard to the duty they owe to their country, or in disre gard of its laws, or the wealth of the greedy gambler in stocks, stands in pub lic estimation above the uniform of the brave men who sacrificed their lives, health, or fortune in the defense of their country, or those who stand ready to do so.” Grand Army Camps Assist In Holy Rood Ceremonies The exercises at the Holy Rood Ceme tery, held at 9:30, were participated in by Post 13, G.

While the jurors had agreed among themselves that the proceedirgs in the Jury room should be kept secret, it de veloped later that the final vote stood: For acquittal, nine; for murder second degree, two; for murder first degree, one. Bo soon as the jurors were dis charged they went to their homes. It his hardly likely that the second trial can be reached until the December term, and, in the meanwhile, Whitmore will be detained in the local jail. He ‘went from the court room lcoking much ‘better than when he entered, as he has feared ever since last night that con viction was sure, the report about the court room being that the question of degree was the only one that ws in dispute. When he reached the jail he turned to the court officer accompanying him and said: “We'll have better luck next time, I am sure.” DANE KILLS CAT IN FIERCE FIGHT ALTOONA, Pa., May 380.—A ferocious battle between a Great Dane dog and a full-grown wildcat took place in the mountains north of the city today.

Wealthy Contractor Aided in Flight by Two Con federates. NEW YORK, May 20.—In daring and spectacular fashicn, haries B. Sulke, an inmate of the Morris ’lains Insane Asylum, escaped last night ander th eves of two attendants. He was whisk ed away by two men who came in an automobile ‘cg visit him. TS

Dr. Britton D. Evans, the famous alienist, who has charge of the asylum, notified the Newark and Jersey City police to look out for the trio, but at midnight the men had not been found. Sulke is a wealthy plumbing contrac tor of Jersey City, and was placed in the asylum <n complaint of his wife. She declared that he drank lLeavily, and had lately threatened to kill her. She has placed him In the institution sev eral times tofore, and a couple of weeks zo had him arrested. This case is still before the Jersey City court. The men in the motor car, whose iden tity is unknown, went to the asylum about 8 p. m. and asked to be allowed to talk with S8ulke on business matters. They declined to go inside the buliding. Attendants were allowed to take Sulke out to talk to nie visitors. After a few minutes’ whispered conversation, one of the men cranked the machine and seat ed himself at the whel while the other remained with Sulke. The door of the tonneau was swinging ope. Suddenly Sulke and the second man leaped from the steps and bolted into the tonneau. The driver threw his cluteh lever forward and the machine darted off. The two attendants were so surprised they were unable to move for a second. When they started to pursue the car it was a quarter of a mile away.

No mean list of candidates will be pre sented when it comes to the nomina tions for President; and the men whose names are set before the delegates as fitting citizens to be honored for first place on the Republican ticket will be men to make excellent subjects for ora tory. One may be sure that oratory of a high order will be heard on this occa~ sion. i 1 Secretary Taft's nomination will eall forth many strong speeches, Represent. ative Theodore Burton, who will place Mr. Taft in nomination, has forced him gelf to the front as one of the ablest and most intellectual men in Congress, He has long been conspicuous for his thorough understanding of the rivers and harbors problems of the country, gained as chairman of the Rivers and Harbors Committee, He has shown himself in the course of this session of Congress a student of finance of a high order. He is capable of eloquence, and he hag a way of carrying conviction, and what he has to say in the nomina tion of the Secretary of War will be well worth attention by students of the art of oratory. Dolliver Will Speak. Representative Burton will be backed by number of able speakers. From the standpoint of pure oratory, there is no abler epeaker in Congress than Sen ator Dolliver of Iow# who will make one of the geconding speeches. Dolli ver's father was a efreuit-riding Metho dist minister of the old school, who con verted thousands by his eloquence in forty years of preaching In the moun tains 0; West Virginia and elsewhere, and the son has been educated to the ways of oratory since he was in knee breeches. National Committeeman George Aa Knlght, of California, who wiil also second the nomination of Taft, is another able speaker, with a power ful voice, which will, no doubt, easily fill the convention ha'l. And there will be a number of others who will speak for Tart Vice President Fairbanks will be nominated by Governor J. Frank Hanly, of Indiana. Governor Hanly is a power ful orator, and he will niake ag speech of no ordinary quality. The Fairbanks mer say there will be no better nom inating speech made than the one Hanly. Various seconding speeches will be made, as in the case of other can didates, “Uncle Joe” Canron is a candidate whose qualities lend themselves well to oratory. Representative Boutell of Ii iinois will nominate him. Senator Knox will be nominated by Lieut. Gov. Robert Murphy, of Johns town, Murphy, who is known as “Bob” to his friends, is a son of Francis Mur Organizer of Woman's Club—‘‘Anty, we want you to join our ciub for the study of sociology, economics and the general uplifting of womankind.”’ Any Drudge— "All right, my dear. We'll begin by tell ing all women about the new way of washing clothes with Fels-Naptha in cold or lukewarm water. It does away with boiling and hard-rubbing, saves work, time, worry and money, and does more to help women than all the sociology and economics in creation.” When women first began to wash clothes, they soaked them in a stream and beat them with a paddle. A hard job it was then to get rid of dirt. Then someone found that fag and lye made a substance which, mixed with hot water and rubbed hard, cleaned things pretty well. This was soap. Finally, came Fels-Naptha. Fels-Naptha isn’t simply good soap; it’s different altogether from soap as you know it. Fels-Naptha marks as big an advance over soap in its usual meaning, as ordinary soap itself did over the paddle. Ordinary soap calls for much hard rubbing and plenty of boiling water to take away dirt. Some kinds of stains, greases and blood it simply won't remove. But Fels-Naptha cleans without hard rubbing and you don’t use hot water at all. With Fels-Naptha all you need is cool or lukewarm water. Think how this cuts all the terror out of washday.

Anty Drudge’s Idea of Clubs. phy, the famous temperance lecturer and orator. The son inherits much of his father's eloquence. Hughes Supporters. General Woodford Is expected to nom inate Governor Hughes, and Senator La Follette and Senator Foraker will no doubt get the tribute of eloquent nomi nating speeches. While there seems now little prospect for the renomination of President Roosevelt, it is undoubtedly a fact that various able orators will. gg¢ to the convention with third-term ad dresses in readiness, to be used if cppor tunity arises. Senator Beveridge of In diana has one prepared, and there will be a number of others. A wealth of history surrounds nomina ting speeches. Some of them have been of the very highest type of oratory. William McKinley's speech nominating Harrison, at Minneapolis, nearly stam pedeé the convention for the orator. The Garfield speech for Sherman, in i880, is historic. If went far to bring about the nomination of Garficla him self. Conkling's great speech for Grant is frequently referred to. Lincoln's re nomination in 1884 called forth a series of powerfui addresses. Those were times calculated to move men's souls profoundly, and it is not strange that the subject should have led to great speeches. The speech of Frank B. Black nominating President Roosevelt in 1904 was an able one. So, also, were the two speeches made by Senator For aker, when he put MeKinley in nomina tion. Speaking of Foraker and Black brings up the fact that Foraker sec onded the nomination of Roosevelt in 194, while Black made the principal speech. Now, times have changed, and men have changed with them. Foraker is now foremost in the Senate antiad ministration fight, while Black's “m on the barrel’ speech, in which he scathea the President, will not be for £otten soon.

SATURDAY, MAY 30, 1808. The Stage of Confidence. At this spring stage of the po litical campaign everybody feels confident. Confidence is in charge of the rival headquarters. Confi dence strides through the lobbies of the hotels where statesmen gather. Confidence is writing the daily bulletins which the candidates and their press agents supply to the papers. Confidence is omnipresent. William Jennings Bryan is confi dent. He is trying to induce Wil liam H. Taft to compel Congress to pass a law requiring publicity of campaign contributions. William H. Taft is confident. He has as sured Mr. Bryan that he was on record long ago. William R. Hearst is confident. Somewhere, somehow, a candidate will be found who will lead the Independence League to a moral, if not an electoral, victory. John Johnson, of Minnesota, is con fident. He believes that Bryan will lose the nomination. As for Presi dent Roosevelt, he is confidence per sonified.

Later in the year confidence will be less conspicuous. Uncertainty will precede the collector of cam paign funds. Still later the carpen ters who nail campaign lies will have the center of the stage. Then, of course, the battle will be really ull You bet it’s hot! But that’s only another reason why we should all keep as cool as we can. We know the elementals, of course—io avoid alcohol as we would a furnace; to move slowly; to keep serene; to eschew meats, and the greater number of starch vegetables. If we would practice them we would all be better off. But we don’t. We sit around, or hurry along the street, and stew generally, until if the thermometer stood at 78 instead of 128, we would be half cooked.

Try going slowly for once. Try it in earnest. If you can’t make the street car without running, let it go past. Don’t bolt your food. Think by choice of pleasant things, and when you must think of un pleasant ones, do it as easily as you can. Keep in the shade. Above everything else, be as calm mentally as a peppery temper will permit you to be.

Then, don’t make so much effort to get to a cool place. Very often a darkened room at home is ae tually cooler than the piazza of the most expensive hotel. It's certainly cooler than the shade of a tree in the middle of a field baked hot all around. If it happens the house isn't cool and you want to go to the country, take the trip as mildly as you are trying to take everything else. The most comforting woods in the world won’t help you much if you swoop down on them all in a steam and work up a profuse sweat chasing a car on the way home.

It’s hot, you bet. But it needn’t be Now It's Farm Life. "Tis the life agricultural that the President is now pushing to the front. He has asked Secretary Wil son to start a farm boom. He has begun to give farm talks at the White House. It is more than likely, we are told, that “befora he leaves office” the President will make a series of speeches in which he will set forth his ideas on the subject, which he regards, it seeras, “as a movement akin to that for the preservation of the natural re sources of the country, and one of equal importance.”

Abandoned farms are but one phase of the subject. Even more serious than the question of restoring the lost fertility of the old lands of the East is the question of providing the rich and extensive farms of the West with a sufficiency of hands when they are needed. Kansas has just sent out a call for 21,500 men and about 1,200 teams to help gather the wheat harvest of the Hawkeye State. Harvest time will begin about the middle of next month. If the far ers can’t get all the help they want, their crops may suffer. Kansas is not the only State call ing for help. Enormous crops are 5

Iry Going Slow! almost ready for harvesting in the Dakotas, in Nebraska, and in Min nesota, every one of which produced a wheat crop of move than 50,000,000 bushels in 1906. The wheat crop that year had a market value ex ceeding $40,000,000.

These columns have previously expressed the conviction that not lectures, or health, or money even, can persuade the live American boy to choose the farm. Hes must elect to spend his days there, if at all, because he finds the life more at tractive than that of the city. From behind the plow a desk occupation looks mightily like ease. From an empty farm porch, with no varia tion of the monotony save the dron ing of beetles, the crowded city street looks mightily like paradise. If the farm is to have its workmen these illusions must be overcome.

Experience is sending a small number back to the country. The farm-bred boy occasionally, but not often, abandons the clockwork rigidity of urban occupation for the greater elasticity of the farm. But the trolley, the rural free delivery, the newspaper, the magazine, better wages and shorter hours, will do more to keep him at home than ex perience will do to send him back. The truth aoout the city is reaching him, and more and more he is com ing to choose according to the in terest, the variety, the wholesome ness of the life that opens hefore him.

If the President strikes charac teristically to the heart of this problem, he will address some of his talks to the farmer parent and employer. For, according as they are moved to make farm life as at tractive as they can, in just that proportion and no other will they be able to find and keep workmen.

Dr. Russell Cool, of California, happeped to suppress an epidemic of measles while on a vacation trip to Tahiti—according to Harper's Weekly—and thereby earned for himself the deep gratitude of Chief Oreaori. The South Sea potentate had the physician to dine with him in state. Afterward they sat to gether and talked.

Robert Louis Stevenson was the subject of a thousand questions. Then came a long silence, as the two puffed their cigars “and luxuriantly regarded the radiant tropic moon light glowing upon the rustling palm fronds and the silvery ocean.” Oreaori evidently had something on his mind. He turned suddenly on the doctor.

“Now,” he exclaimed, ‘now, tell me something about John L. Sulli van.”

The incident is recounted as a joke. It has fun in it. John L. and R. L. 8S. are not exactly of a pat tern. But, maybe, there's a thought in it, too. i i Out at the Zoo the buffalo choose for their chief the best fighter. In true savagery, the heathen in his blindness does very much the same thing. As his civilization advances, his standards lift up—from muscu lar strength to personal force, to heredity, to personal enterprise, to mental force, to trustworthiness, sometimes to character, in varying succession and to varying results, But the savage regard for the physi cal fighter survives in him to the last—and in us.

It is good that is so. The only full development of mind and spirit for a people depends upon a full development of their bodies. The occasional individual exception does not shake the general proposition. The highest ideals of America do not relieve the American of a need as great as that of the South Sea islander to keep his body supple, strong, and as young as may be. In our regard for other things we are inclined to forget how they are bound up in bodily strength. We need not worship a John L. Sulli van, as the Tahitian chief seems to. have done. But we can never afford to disdain the strength upon which the prowess of the Sullivans de pends,

It isn’t that the old liners have beaten the Administration in the selection ot Senators Burrows and Hopkins for con spieuous positions at the Republican convention. It is only that these gentle men are at last settling into their right position among the reformers, If the ball team will take our advice, it will come home without waiting to spoil it, When your automobile just escapes running down a little child, don't swear.

We understand there are 7,500 reasons why no member of Congress is willing to admit that this session has been en tirely a failure. Mr. Hearst may yet have the satis. faction of being called “Mayor” all his life.

He falls in love with it head over heels, and he falls downstairs In about the same way, he is in such hurry to se the singer. But by the time he reaches the street, io! she has vanished. =ad cnly a policeman remains. Later on, this young, adventurous Mr. Hillard aan meets the young, adven turous sirg<r under most mystifying eireumstnnesa. They dine together, but she comes in mask, What the voice has begun, ihe mask put the finishing touches to. From then on Hillard is full forty fathoms dezp in love and curiosity. i It is interesting to note that Mae Grath made his writing start as a ncws paper man. After learning the ropes on the Syracuse Herald he went to Chicago to work as a paragrapher on the Evening Mail with Frank Pixley, George Ade, Bugene Field, George Hor ton, and Kirkz La Shelle. From Chi cago, to Albany, thence back to Syra cuse, he went and now he has settled down to the pleasant business of writ ing entertaining fiction. In ten years he has produced six nov els—" Army and the Woman,” “The Pup pet Crown.” “The Grey Cloak.” “The Man on the Box” and "Half a Rogue’ besides this latest. Not in them all. by any means, has he had the co-operation of illustrators like Harrison Fisher and Kar! Anderson, the two who help make “rhe Lure of the Mask” so attractive. i An Exacring Sweetheart. Frederic 8. Isktam, author of ‘The Lady of the Mount,” etc, wrote a good ly portion of that romance in various cafes in different parts of France At Tours, where the writer called for pa per and ink one day, the waiter, an in quisitive mortal noticed that Mr. Isham numbered his page of note-paper, 104. “Phat 's a long letter, Monsieur,” this provincial garcon permitted himself to murmur. “Monsieur must have a very exacting sweetheart?" “She is,” answered the writer, “the most exacting, and, one might add, capricious.” The waiter looked sympathetic: “Ah, mon Dieu! Did he not know? Could he not commiserate? Did he not hawt his own capricious Marie? But what—mon Dieu'—was Monsieur's sweetheart call ed?" “Madame Public.” said the writer, and the garcon, who did not see the point, again murmured sympathetically.

Jefferson Davis’ Name. An oppertunity for a controversy over the life and public services of Jefferson Davis was afforded by a resolution ir iroduced in the IJouse of Representa tives recently by Mr. Carlin of Vir ginia. The resolution directed the Sec retary of War, if not incompatible with the public interests, to inform the House by what authority the name of Jeffer son Davis was erased from the stons tablet orn Cabin John Bridge; also that the House be informed as to what steps, if any, have been taken toward restor ing to ihe stone the name of Davis as

Secretary of War. The Cabin John Bridge is said to be the largest single span masonry bridge in the world. It was built during Jef ferson Davis’ administration as cre tary of War. His name was removed from the bridge soon after the opening of hostilities between the North and the South. Prof. W. E. Dodd considers tka incident of sufficient importance to discuss in his life of Davis, recently issued in the ‘American Crisis Series

The Language of the Far East. “The basis of public instruction in the Philippines is the English lan guage,” writes Dr. David P. Barrows in his “History of the Philippines.” “This was early decided upon in view of the great number of Filipino dia lects, the absence of a common native language of literature, and the very moderate acquaintance with Spanish by any except the educated class. “It is fortunate for the Filipino peo le that English has been introduced here and that its knowledge is rapidly spreading. Knowledge of language Is power, and the more widely spoken the tongue, the greater the possession of the individual who acquires it. Of ali the languages of the world, English is today the most widely spoken and is most rapidly spreading.

“Moreover, Faglish is pre-cminently the language of the Far East. From Yokohama to Australia, and from Ma nila to the Isthmus of Suez, English is the common medium «f communication. It is the language alike of business and of diplomacy. The Filipino peopie, so eager to participate in all the busy life of eastern Asla, so ambitious te make their influence felt and their counsels regarded, will be debarred from all this unless they master this mighty English tongue.”

Swinburne and Prose Criticism.

Mr. Swinburne since finishing “The ‘Duke of Gandia” has heen busy with the final revision of what is to be his greatest work in prose, “The Age of Shakespeare.” There are many book men who contend that, significant as the Swinburnian nius has been in the world of poetry, it will have a prepon derating influence in the annals of crit feism. Meanwhile the poet, although seventy-one years old, enjoys excellent health and spirits, and works with un abated vigor. in t

The Case Against Socialism.

Probably the strongest argument that has been put forth against socialism is contained in the book entitled “The Case Against Boclalism,” which is further de scribed as “A Handbook for Speakers and Candidates.” The book has been prepared by the London Municipal Society, and is a ver itable arsenal of arguments against so cialism. Tre matter is presented in such form that it is easy to get at the facts and arguments on any given point, ard a very full index makes it possible for the anti-socialist to answer from this single volume almost any argu ment that may be brought against his position.

Weighty indorsement is Siren the sub stance by Arthur James Balfour.

A Soldier of German George.

Max Pemberton's new novel, “Sir Richard Escombe,” is to appear under the Harper imprint early in June. The author himself describes its romantic setting in the stately English of that ptriod:

“Some pages from the life story of Sir Richard Escombe, Bart, particular ly concerning his relations with the notorious Soclety of St. Francis, as founded at Medmenham Abbey, on the River Thames, by Sir Francis Dashwood and John Wilkes; of the manner in which he brought that society to an end; also of his relations with Kitty Dulecimore, of Sherbourne, in the county of Warwickshire; of the misfortune which befell him when he drew her name in the lottery; of his subsequent service at Windsor Castle. The whole giving a true account of certain social practices in the reign of George 1I and of a club but {ll-remembered in the present day, though entitied to per petual obloquy.”

i Literary Notes. Thomas Hardy’s ‘“The Return of the Native,” has been reprinted, the third reprint of this novel within six months.

According to 'he publishers, the sec ond edition of “Mr. Crewe’'s Career,” the new Winston Churchill novel, is already practically exhuusted, and a third edi tion is under wav. “Trilby” defies the death tradition of the too-too popular novel. The Haszp ers have sent this memorable heroine to press for the unknown-th time, and there is no predicting when she will consider herself amone those past.

The East and the West are terms very loosely used in fiction as else where, much to the disgust of the far Westerners. Mary Austin’s idea in “Santa Lucia has phrased the Cali fornian’s idea of the matter In a smart speech: “The East on the coast is the place vou come from.”

Frank Danby’s novel, “The Heart of a Child,” is evidently destined for as brilliant a career as that of its heroine. the now famous Sally Snape. The third and fourth editions were sold as they could be printed, and the fifth edition has just been rushed out to meet the demand

TIMELY RECIPES FOR COOKING NEW SPRING VEGETABLES “Ring out the old, ring in the new,” is the slogan of housewives at this season of the year, when winter meats and vegetables have palled upon the appetites of her brood, and it is ds clared that as one man they are so run down they must go to Atlantic City or die Instanter. The feminine head of the house who is wise, immediately she hears this pa thetic remark, will set to forming a menu composed largely of green things to act as a rejuvensator. If she is very far-seeing, she will make rhubarb a part of it. This is a vegetable often spoiled in the cooking, so 1 give here some formulas which will be found good: Stewed Rhubarb—Carefully scrape (do not peel) the stalks, cut into half-inch iengths and lay them in cold water for half an hour. Weigh the rhubarb, and to each pound of the fruit allow a half pound of granulated sugar. Put the rhubarb, still wet, into an agate-lined saucepan, mix the sugar with it and set it at one side of the range until the sugar melts. Bring slowly to a boil, and stew until the rhubarb is very tender. If this is sealed up while hot in glass Jars, wrapped In paper to exclude the light, it may be kept all the year round.

i

Rhubarb Fritters—Scrape the stalks of ‘the rhubarb, cut into quarter-inch lengihs, stew in sugar and water for ten minutes, drain and set aside to get cold. Make a batter of half pint of milk, three eggs beaten light, and a cupful of prepared flour. Beat hard, and stir into this batter a cupful of the rhubarb. Drop by the spoonful into deep, boiling lard and fry to a bright brown. Serve with lemon sauce Rhubarb Trifle—Cook =ofi two cup fuls of rhubarb, scraped and cut into inch lengths, using barely enough water to keep it from scorching. Soak a half ounce of gelatine, and when ready for use strain into it the rhubarb rubbed through a sieve; add six or eight ounces of sugar and a cupful of cream; stir over the fire until well heated through, but do not let it boli. and pour into a wet mold. Set on Ice. Serve with whipped cream. Rhubarb Pudding —Grease a pudding dish and put inte it a layer of bread crumbs that have been soaked in a piat of water to which have been added the Juice of a lemon and a hs!f cupful of sugar. 8prinkle these crumbs with bits of butter, and put over them a thick layer of steward rhubarb, well sweet ened. Now add more crumbs and more rhubarb, and proceed In this manner until the dish is full. Sprinkle the top of the puddi with dry bread crumbs dotted with bits of butter. Bake, cov ered, for half an hour; uncover and bake for ten minutes longer... Eat with hard sauce flavored with powdered nut meg.

EE i Recipe for Pie. Rhubarb and Raisin Pie—Peael the rhubarb and eut into inch pleces: pour boiling water over it and iet stand for ten minutes. Drain; line the pie-plate with plain paste. Fill the pie with rhubarb, and strew over it one cupful of sugar, and one half cupful of raisins. Add small pleces of butter. Cover with a crust and bake. Asparagus is a spring vegetable great ly esteemed by the epicure, though very frequently he does not find it particu larly well cooked. Appetizing methods of serving are as follows: Baked Asparagus~Cut the tender halves of the asparagus stalks into inch lengths. Cook for fifteen minutes in salted boiling water, then drain. Grease a pudding dish and put in the bottom a layer of asparagus. Sprinkle this with fine bread crumbs, bits of butter, pep r and salt and small pleces of ard-boiled egg. Now put in another layer of asparagus, more crumbs, ete. and go on until the dish is full. The last layer must be sprinkled with crumbs and bits of butter. Bake for half an hour, and serve in the dish in which it is cocked.

Creamed Asparagus—Reject the lower halves of your stalks and boil the upper halves until they are very tender. Then drain and chop. Cook together a tablespoonful of butter and two of flour until they bubble. Pour on them a pint of milk with a bit of soda dissolved In it. Stir until smooth and of the consistency of cream.

The second of the series of directoire gowns which were furnished to The Times by Reutlingsr, of Paris, is quite as stunning as the earlier model and offers all sorts of allurements to the tali girl. Its long, sweeping, graceful lines prove the theory that lines of the French models demand the latest corset modeis and the absence of voluminous undersgkirts.

New cabbage is delightful served with cheese, as follows: Cut a cabbage into shreds and boll in ealted water until tender. Drain and stand in a heated colander at the side of the stove. Cook together two teaspoonfuls of butter and two of flour and pour upon them a pint of hot milk. Season with salt and pep per, and stir in three heaping table spoonfuls of grated cheese. Cook, stir ring constantly, for just a minute. Turn the cabbage into a deep vegetable dish and pour tne cheese sauce over it. The cucumbers which appear on the table of many households are not fit to eat. Indeed, this vegetable demands more careful preparation than most cooks are disposed to give it. In the first place, the vegetables should be placed in cold water for several hours before they are peeled. When they have been peeled they should be placed in ice water, salted and set in a cool place. Still later they should be sliced very, very thin, and placed in ice-cold water for a half hour, and later drained and served with a dressing made of olive oil, pepper, salt and vinegar. Thick slices of cucumber which have been badly prepared are a menace to health and an Insult to the appetite. Young onions form a dish much prized in the spring. One way of cooking these is as follows: Cut off the stalks, re mave the skins and lay the onions in cold water for half an hour. Put them over the fire In hot salted water and cook for twenty minutes. Drain off the water and return the onions to the fire with a cupful of hot milk, in which has been dissolved a bit of soda the size of a pea. Add a tablespoonful of flour and stew siowly until the sauce is like thick cream. These are paly a few of the dishes with which the housemother may pique the appetites of her brood when the warm days of spring come—if they ever do. Others will be given in this column from time to time, and any unusual way of cooking ve, les sent to me for publication will be gratefully received.

CHILDREN BUILD HOUSES FOR BIRDS [SWISS MUSLIN WITH LACE] Feathered Tribe Enjoy Life in Vicinity of Chevy Chase. A pretty little diversion of the pupils of the Chevy Chase public school has had its Sijune many a little boy and girl know re about bird life than all that books could teach them. Some time ago Miss Ella Given, prin cipal of the school, suggested to the children that they build little bird houses about the place, so that whesn the birds began coming up from the South they wou!d not have to fly past Chevy Chase in search of a summer home. Miss Given is an active meni ber of the Audubon Society of the Dis trict, and during recreation hours fro quently tells the children much about bird life, They have had many little things explained to (len about the customs of birds, and so when it was suggested that the time wae almost here for the return of the birds, the children set about building the houses. Kach vied with the other in an effort to put up the most attractive house, and as each day went by more progress was made on the little houses until at last they wers finished. Then began the watch for the birds. It was not long before they came, and with the instinct true of their kind juey gpied the little houses and st once too possession. If the children had wished for recompense for thelr work they were doubly repaid in watching the biuebirds and wrens fly out of the lit tie houses, and get straws ard twigs, and carry them into furnish their new homes. The chiliren were delighted with the ready way in which the birds took possessiopr and feel more than jus uufied for thelr interest. TINTED STATICNERY NOW THE FASHION Scented Hairpins the Latest Nov elty in Headdress—New Hat i Fasteners. Nowadays milady has taken a fancy to the new French stationery, which is delicately tinted, and which has the envelopes lined with tissue paper of the same elusive shade. In the flap of the envelope, where the seal should be, the paper is cut out to form milady’s initial. Nothing could be daintier, while it has the additional advantage of being fair ly inexpensive. This season you should fasten your hat with a fastener which has two points designed to be pinned under neath to the bandeau, and tw<s prongs to be thrust through the topknot., Two of these will gerve to hold your hat securely in plac: no matter how enor mous it may ba. The latest way of preventing elbow sleeves and long gloves from parting company is to use a pair of tiny silver clasps. The top of the glove is fast ened to the bottom of the sleeve, thus doing away with the ugly gap so fre quently seen. Sometimes milady is forced to do a little cleaning and fixing up, and so for her convenience some accommo dating man has invented a dust-pan designed to save her from being obliged to fat down upca her hands and knees. It has a metal arrangement just large enough to admit the toe of milady’s shoe, and a triangular plecé underneata which raises the back at an angle gufficient to insure the front being a&x actly level with the carpet. In thia way the dirt is gathered up with very little inconvenience. Scented ins are the latest nov elty. The knob at the top of the hair pin is fitted with a spring, which, at the slightest touch, releases the minia ture spray of perfume. The idea is al ways to Insure absolutely fresh per fume, for, however fine a scent may be, it {8 apt to become stale after be ing exposed to the air for several hours. It is quite easy for a woman to pat her hair or to replace a hairpin, and this is all that is necessary to re lease the perfume. Hairpins are made in gold for blondes, tortoise shell for brown hair, dark amkter for auburn haired women, and silver for gray locks. AN EFFECTIVE BIRD SCARER. In cherry time cut newspapers into long strips. Tie these in the middle with a string and hang to the cherry tree branches.

VINEGAR IS USED AS HOME MEDICINE Makes Good Gargle, Cooling Drink, and Bath for Feverish Pationte The old-fashioned home remedy should never be (depended upon in cases of illness, when a good physiclan can be called. For trifling aflfments, how ever, some of “grandmother's remedies may be depended upon. Pure cider vinegar, for instance, used to figure largely among household rem edles, and may safely be used now when other remedies are not at hand. As a refres:‘ng and cooling drink for feverishness and as a sedative, try fif teen drops of vinegar in a glass oi sugar water. A tablespoonful of vinegar In a glass of water, to which have been added a teaspoonful of salt and a big pinch of cayenne pepper, makes an excellent gar gle for sore throat and inclination to cough caused by falling of the palate. For the bathing of fever patients it is an excellent oe bstitute for alcohol. A vinegar compress will stop almost any headache, and it Is a good preven tive of discoloration when immediately applied to bumps an4 bruises. Bathing the forahcad and wrists with vinegar will bring one out of a fainting fit. Vinegar sprinkled on a hot shovel sweetens the sick room air and proves an excellent disinfectant. As an antidote for poisoning by alka loids and lye, and all narcotics it is highly recommended. In the kitchen vinegar has several uses which cre often overlooked by the cook whe knows {ts use only in salad dressing or plckiing. A little vinegar added to the water in which fish is boiled will remove the strong, oily taste. When ded to the water in which strong fowl! is bolled vinegar tends to make the flesh mor: tender.

“Leonora,” the fairy operetta given several weeks ago by the dancing pu pills of Miss Cora B. Shreve, was suc cessfully repeated yesterday afternoon in the Nationa! Theater. The perform ance was the annual May festival of Miss Shreve's class, and, at its close, medals for good work during the year were awarded. Among those who received these prizes were Liadolin Smithson, Helen Berens, Edna Wilcox, Olle Meyers, Mary Smith, Leona Callan, Margaret Poole, Estelle Murray, Alma Nelson, Bennet Gittings, Edith Shreve, Baby Smith, Warren Stoll, and Ruby Raymond. The operetta was followed with as much interest as upon its first perform ance, More attractive scenery had been furnished and additional electrical effects materially heightened the picturesque ness of many of the scenes The little dancers were received with high favor, and if the program had permitted there would have been a series of recalls throughout the afternoon. Many of the children, particularly the principals in the cast, demonstrated un usual vocal and dramatic ability. This was particularly true of Miss Ruby Raymond, a8 the gypsy queen; Miss Adrienne Bhreve, and Irving Cosgrove. “All's Wrong” Fv S&S hts when the stomach is out of order.

SCULPTOR IN A COURT. i

At a recent reception in New York, QGutzon Borglum, the sculptor, was pre sented to well-known society woman, S———— ER of the 1 4 The latter looked at him hesitatingly for a minute, then said:

“Yes, I am certain. I am very glad to see you again, Mr. Borglum.”

“1 haven't the great pleasure of re membering,”” replied the scuiptor.

i

“Yes, it was in Los Angeles,” said the woman, “and you were the defend ant in a police court case.” Borglum was flabbergasted but man aged to stammer out that he was never in a police court in his life. Then the woman explained. It seems that Mr. Borglum, when in Southern California, owned a magnificent English mastiff. The dog was amiable, but the children of a neighbor were’ fright encod by its great size, and so, one morning the dog's owner was arrested on the charge of allowing a viclous ani mal to run at large. rhe judge or dered the animal to be brought in, and the great beast gravely marched down aisle to the bench, and, putting a ge paw on the judge's knee, looked nly into his face. The case was once non-sulted.—Exchange. Nationals Set New Season Mark By Winning Five Straight; Youngsters Show Class. 5 Cates’ Twisters and Team's Superb Fielding Tell the Tale of Curtain Raiser—Ganley and McBride Star in Second.

After taking three straight from Cleveland on the local American League grounds, Washington made it five in a row by capturing a dcuble-header in masterly style yesterday afternoon from Boston by 6 to 1 and 7 to 5. In the opener Cantillon thought Cates looked fit, and that young man proved deserving of the honor, for he let down the tail-enders with but three hits, one of these being a home run by Cravath, which is all that saved the Beaneaters from a shut-out. Cates issued no passes, and fanned one man. The second game was a typical thriller. Both teams used practically every one in a sult, and hits were frequent on both sides. The cutcome remained in doubt until the eighth and last inning, wher Washington braced nobly and tallied the two winning runs. The two victories place Washington safe in seventh place—for a time, at least—and but three and one-half games behind New York, which leads the league. BOSTON, May 30.—Superb pitching by cne young man named Cates and su perior fielding with never an error by the men behind him gave Washington the opening game of the double-header here yesterday before one of the largest crowds of the season. Until the eighth inning the game was closely contested, both teams fighting gamely with Washington having slight ly the better of the argument. Wash ington started the ball rolling In the fourth. Bob Ganley’s triple to right developed into the first run of the game when it was closely followed by Plek ering’s sizzling single to the same gar den. This with two men down. Pick ering then tried to steal second and was caught a mile,

Boston evened up in its half when Cravath caught a straight one square ly on the nose and poked the ball far out to the center field fence for the circuit. When Gessler followed with a hit, the Boston fans were set off and right here Cates showed his true metal. Instead of becoming nervous, the jibes from the bleachers seem ed to steady him and from that time on no Boston man reached first. Gain Lead In Sixth. There was nothing more doing until the sixth when Washington forged ahead with one run on Milan's single, Ganley's pretty sacrifice, a wild pitch, and a hit by Delehanty. Neither scored in the next, but in the eighth thle Washington batters rallied and, finding the weak spot in Morgan's delivery, and several unguarded spots in the field pushed three runs over the plate. 0 Again in the next the visitors scored. Freeman and McBride singled and ac vanced on a neat sacrifice by Cates. Milan hit to McConnell, who nailed Free man at the plate. On McConnel’'s mis erable return to Morgan McBride came liome.

CONLEY FIGHTS 8 ROUNDS TO DRAW WITH WOLGAST, OF MILWAUKEE RACINE, Wis,, May 3.—Frank Con ley, of Kenosha, and Ad Wolgast, of Milwaukee, fought the hardest eight roands of their lives here last night and a draw was the decision. Conley weighed 117 pounds and Wolgast 123 pounds. i The Kenosha fighter made an excel lent showing against his more expe rienced opponent. He wanted close fighting, not being fast enough at long range work, and clinches were frequent with both men landing hard on the breaks. Conley received the greater unishment, but landed as frequently as Volgast. Custom Tailoring, $15 Let us make your new suit. Perfect fit and style guaranteed.

Open Saturday Evenings. NN BOSTON, May 30.—With the first game stowed safely away in Cantillon’s sur prisingly elastic win pocket it was thought that the four straights which the Nationals had annexed in as many attempts would suffice them for the re mainder of the season. Thinking thus ly, Manager John I. Taylor thought he saw censolation in taking the second game here yesterday. But J. I. Taylor reckoned without his host. He is today a sadder but wiser mun. He picked a green lemon in the garden of baseball, where he thought only peaches grew. And the worst of it was that he thought his grapefruit was a peach until the concluding inning when, after each team had braced, and braced again, and then rallied, Wash ington came home with a rush aud breezed across the wire two counts to the good. That second was a funny one. There were enough men used by both sides to lay the foundation for another league. Practically every man in a uniform was rhoved into the contest before they were through. At different times twen ty-eight men made their bows. It was largely a case of luck. The strange pan of it was that this elusive dame hov ered over the Washinston cohorts in amazingly partial manner. Washing ‘on Bats Well, The visitors batted lke fiends. Gan ley and McBride each nailed three pret ty ones, while Delehanty, Pickering, Street, and Shipke are each credited with two. And the best part of it al for the winners was that nearly every hit came at an opportune time. Their errors—each side had two—both came when the ball might have been thrown over the fence without doing harm, while both of Boston's counted. With both drawing blanks in the first Washington pushed one over in the sec ond. Washington kept this lead until the fifth when two more went over. Bo: ton duplicated, and came back with still another two which gave them a lead, with the score 4 to 3. In the next Wash ington went ahead by putting two over, but Boston came back and tied it =p. Both drew bianks in the eighth, and in ths final round Boston was unable to catch up to the two that Washington put over in that session.

It was thought by some that the Light Blue and White would force the champions into a form reversal, and turn the trick. However, the Technical leader presented his strongest line-up, with Gray on the slab. The sturdy little pitcher's eurves never broke better, and the support accorded him was deserving of victory, and the high schoo] titie, astern, on the other hand, ascended 10 a man in the initial round, Whitney's Inability to puzzle his opponents, and the booting of many chances by the men behind him, allowing ten runs to count before the dust settled. For four innings thereafter the exhibition really took on the aspect of a baseball game, although the josers failed to tally in those sessions, they managed to hald Tech to but one lone score in the third, A neat single by Acton, a semi-wild pitch by Gray, and Brewster's poor throw to catch Acton at second, per mitted the runner to gallop home with the only score for his side In the fifth round. In the first half of the sama Tech had managed by frequently lo cating Whitney's shoots to push four over the counting block.

OUTLAWS VICTORS IN CLOSE FINISH Triple and Timely Single Tally the Winning Run. The Washington Bandits nosed out a victory from the Allentown Union leaguers yesterday afternoon at Union League Park in a thrilling eighth inning rally by 3 to 2. OZ King Arthur Irwin's crew might have piiyed a better game, but for all the three errors booked against them they showed strong in the pinches, in pitch ing, fielding, and batting. Topham was pitted against McKay and honors went to the former, though the visiting twirler did good work. Topham allowed no passes and struck out three men, while McKay walked three men and had no strike-outs to his credit. Both were found for seven hits apiece. While much of the credit for the vie tory goes to Topham for his effective work at crucial moments, Charley Atherton, the old Washington player, deserves special mention. With the score 2 to 1 in favor of the visitors in the opening of the eighth Shaughnessy cracked out a three-bagger, which scored Burke who had landed on first on a choice. With two men down Atherton tapped a neot single to right which tallied Shaughnessy and the game was won. Th aa Cosas yaa Washington. AB. GRBert, €f..cesere YE Conners, Ib....... TT.

Announcement was mide tonight by De Courcey Forbes, manager of the stable of James R.

The swelling, however, began to disappear, ard enabled a more thorough examination of the champion race horse to be made. It was then dis covered that the tendons were straight, and that Colin showed no signs of lame ness.

CHICAGO, May 30.—There is not going to be any fancy work about Thursday night's battle in Milwaukee between Bill; Papke and Stanley Ketchel, a bout that really will decide the middle weight championship of America. Both men are sluggers pure and sim ple, and neither is _Joing to display much skill after the first punch is sent home. And it may be the first punch that will decide the mill. Papke al ready has worn out three training part ners and has decided to quit boxing al together now, as his hands are in per fect shape and there is no use of tak ing any chances with rather fragile knuckles. Papke broke his hand in his last fight with Hugo Kelly. Ketchel is training out on the Whiie Fish Bay road to the north of Milwau kee, and will have te work like a fiend 0 make the weight of 154 pounds at 3 o'clock. When Stanley landed in Chi cago he asked for a postponement of the bout, but the club and Papke re fused to grant it. He wei hs 174 pounds, it is claimed. Many are of the opinion that the strenuous training to get to the Agreed notch will leave the Montana man {n such shape.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, May 30 Ong world’s record was equaled ané two in tercollegiate records were broke: ia the preliminary trials of the annual inter collegiate championships which were held yesterday afternoon on Franklin Field. With the pick of the college athletes of the East participating, today’s events were of a high order, and tomorrow's finals in the blue ribbon event of the college athletic year promises record performances. So keen was the competition for quali« fication in the finals that the stars were pushed almost to their limit to keep the newer men from beating them out. Tne doubtedly the best performance of the day was the equaling of the world’s rec ords of 151-5 seconds in the 12-yard hurdle race by A. B. Shaw, of Dart mouth. His feat of duplicating the fig ures made several years ago by the marvelous Kraenzlein was received with much enthusiasm. In equaling these fig ures he broke Kraenzlein's intercol legiate record of 152-5 seconds. Semi-Finals to Be Run, With the preliminaries out of the way and the semi-finals yet to be run. experts figure that the intercollegiate championship lies between Pennsylvania and Cornell, with Yale and Michigan close up. Michigan and Yale did not come up to the expectations of those who follow the sport, some of the smaller colleges beating their entries out in several events. Pennsylvania practi cally did #4 that was expected of her men, and “ornell probably did a littie better than was anticipated.

Horstman, by steady playing, which was brilliant with good puts, led at the close of the first round with 2 up over his opponent. The winner was 1 up at the twelfth and 1 up at the seventeenth. The greens were in almost perfect con dition, and until the shower came up a large gallery followed the play.

At the seventeenth hole Charteris drove into the woods, and it was chiefly because of this that Horstman increased his lead at that point. Although beaten in the opening round, Charteris was roundly applauded for some of his shots, and some of his friends are pre dicting a victory for him in this after noon's play. i i

PHILIP TESTIMONY COMPLETE NONDAY Accused Slayer of Frank Macaboy “in Conference With Attorneys Today. i

By the close of court on Monday even ing the defense of Gaston Philip will "have concluded, and the arguments being made Tuesday morning, it is probable that Tuesda’ afternoon Judge Barnard will deliver his charge to the jury, and the fate >f the scion of an aristocratic family row on trial for the murder of Frank Macaboy, will ‘Le In their hands, The attorneys [or the defénse, Henry E. Davis and A. A. Hoehing, jr., who are making such a good fight to acquit the defendant, took advantage of the fact that there was no court today, and keld 2 conference at the latter's office. Gaston Philip and ris two brothers, Capt. Van Ness Pihalip and Hoffman Philip, secretary to the American le gation, at Tangier, Morocco, who made the long journey (o this country to be at his younger brother's side during whe ordeal, were at the conference. The defense is confident of a quick verdict of acquital, and predict that the jury will return such a verdict with in a few hours. The members of the bar, almost to a man, believe that Philip's counsel have constructed a de fense, which the Government cannot batter down. This defense, as outlined by Henry E. Davis to the jury yester day, if it can be proved, can warrant rothing ‘but an acquittal, they say. The greater part of that defense has been already brought out, and it only remains for the defense to prove thelr version of the actual struggle in the corridor of the Arlington Hotel, which resulted in the death of Macaboy. They have half a dozen witnesses to be called Monday, and it is said that by these witnesses they intend to bring out some tsetimony that will surprise the prosecution. REALTY TRANSFERS.

WARTS OF TRADE CLOSED FOR THE DAY General Opinion Favors a Two-Sided Market on Wall Street. NEW YORK, May 30.—Decoration Day was observed on Wall Street by abso lute closure of everything. A few clerks were making up statements for the first of Jyne, and a few persistent room traders gathered here and there to swip opinions, stories and reminisences. Much interest was taken in the Senate fillbuster, but the opinion was generally expressed that the end of the effort was but a few days or hours away. The belief that the currency bill can be forced through and that it will help the market because it will glve the bankers all the money they need and will keep down the rates is looked upon as a life-saver for the market during the coming political campaign. Brokers and commission houses are constantly sending out wires to their customers asking that they buy on declines and sell on reactions. This old saw Is not being seriously considered by the traders as they understand it to be a too ner .us market for anyone not watching the ticker constantly to muke the play requested. Gould Situation Interesting. The Gould situation is interesuing to everyone, and especially to the trunk and transcontinental lines. The feeling is that the Gould plans will have to be held in abeyance until such time as there shall be a readjustment of finances. First the Missouri Pacific was supposed to be in trouble, then, after the company mentioned had been success fully handled, Western Maryland feil Into trouble and then the Wabash-Pittsburg Terminal Company came into the lime light with notes and [nterest to meet and more trouble for the Gould family, and especially for George Gould. Satistaction is expresscd by Gould in terests over the formaticn of a protec tive commitgee and a plan for the re organizauon” ot the Wabash-Terminal, predictions being made that the reor ganization would be effected under Gould cortrol. Hill stocks are the prime favorites of the traders. The opinion is expressed that the roads Great Northern and Northern Pacific will be among the first to show improvement, as a result of the crops and the Fesumption of better busi ness conditions in the Northwesi. The only feature of the situation in connec tion with these stocks is the digestion of the large amount of stock disposed of in both companies by the Union Pa clfic, as a safety against issuing bonds for its own protection. But this line of stocks will soon he absorbed, It is a question if Mr. Harriman can longer be depended on to use his great power to keep the market on the up grade. He has accomplished what he wanted to do, neld the market on the Jump to higher levels while he thus was enabled te distribute his Hill holdings at a toppy price. The market will probably be irregular during the next few weeks, just as jt has been for two weeks, with more bear play and reactions and gains.
