Secretary Garfield Says Ne braskan Cannot Carry His Own State. CANDIDATE ADVISED TO REDUCE WEIGHT Chicago Man Tells Him to Masti cate Slowly, and He Will Lose Much Flesh. By TAMES HAY, TR. HOT SPRINGS, Va., Aug. 19.—Bryan cannot carry his own State, was the message broughi to Willlam Howard Taft today by James R. Garfield, Sec retary of the Interior, who has just finished an extensive trip through the Far and Middle West. Mr. Taft is extreme'y gratified by the news, as he regards Garfield as one of the most as tute prophets in the country.

The Secretary of tne Interior is pe culiarly fitted to size up sentiment in the West, as his department's work throws him into constant contset snd communication with that section. i

“The West looks very favorable, in deed,” said Mr. Garfield.

LTT AS oR

“I traveled extensively, visiting Cal ffornia, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Colo rado, Nebraska, and Kansas, and every where found the sentiment of the peo ple friendly to Taft. The crops are good throughout the West, and the people are prosperous. Therefore, Mr. Bryan is not gaining many converts. i

“He certainly will lose his own State, in spite of the fact that he is making an effort to gain votes by pleading for the support ¢f his home people. The local issue plea does not appeal to the people of Nebraska at all. On my way back East there wa =z poll taken of the train, and the result showed forty seven for Taft and seventeen for Bryan,

“The poli was taken at Kansas Clty, and many of the men in the train were friends of the men whe had just lost out in the bitter factional fight in Kan sis. But they said that would not make any difference to them; that they were going to stand by the ticket just the same. i

Mr. Taft devoted part of the morn ing to golf and spent most of the day putting the finishing touches to his speech.

i ai a——— The speech to be delivered here on Friday by Taft is designed to appeal especially to the independent Demo cratic voters of the South. According to a statement by A. I. Vorys, it will in volve a general discussion of the part taken by the two great parties In meeting the abuses of trusts and monop olies, with reference to The duty of Southern Republicans to make every effort to increase the Republican vote in the South by accessions from the ranks of the independent Democrats

The speech will point out the issues upon which appeal is based, and which will arouse the sympathy of such Déem ocrats with the epublican position and achievements already recorded.

For Flesh Reduction. Mastication as a fleeh reducer has been recommended to Mr. Taft. Today the candidate received a cheering let. ter on the subject. A Chicago man, “prompted by an earnest desire for you: election, and that you may have the strength for the hard work which will follow it,” proffers sympathetic advice

Being himself six feet in height, with a& chest measure of 49 inches and a weight of 2i8 pounds, he recognizss the handicaps of avoirdupois. One day he read a newspaper article on the subject of proper mastication, and, being will ing to try anything once, he resorted tc said proper mastication. Now he feels better, his waist measure has been re duced by five inches, he's fifteen pounds shy In weight and experienges a cor respondingly increasing lightness of movement.

i

“i am writing you on a personal mat ter,” says the Chicago heavyweight “frcm an entirely impersonal stand point. Since taking up the study of mastication, I have eaten whatever J craved and have had no other exercise than golf. While I enjoy my food as much or more than before, I can eat no more than haif as much. With the alinost excessive mastication, satiety comes with g small quantity of food.” 3 Je 1

a Hall Says He Tlrashed Old Man for Attentions to Wife. THREAT TO LYNCH FOLLOWED ATTACK Glendale Citizens Angered by Sen sational Affray—Victim Taken to Hospital. “Yes, I beat him. I don’t deny it. After I had finished with my fists, 1 took my wagon whip to him, as I claim I had a right to do. I had warned him to cease attentions to my wife.” In these words, Richard B. Hall, a young husband of thirty years, describ ed the manner in which he met Thomas Kalbfus, aged sixty-eight, in a ‘onely spot near Glendale, a Washington sub urb, and horsewhipped him so severely that the older man has been in Serious condition at Garfield Hospital until to day. Developments in the sensational af fair revolving around the older man’s alleged attentions to Hall's young wife have just become public. That a num ber of enraged citizens of Glendale talked freely of lynching the husband after his arrest last Wednesday night, also became known, and the story is not denied either by Hall himself or reputable citizens of this community. Feeling Against Hall Nearly half a hundred friends of the aged and beaten man were gathered about the depot when Deputy Sheriff Nicholson left with his prisoner for the county seat. Since Hall's return home, following his giving bonds Saturday last, he has not been seen about the village, and seems cognizant of the fact that there is considerable feeling there against him. Kalbfus, who is a retired army officer and nsioner, is the father of Samuel Kalbfus, one of the assistant Districg assessors, and Charles H. Kalbfus, a clerk in the Postoffice Department. The aged man had so far recovered today as to warrant his removal from the hos pital to the home of one of his sons, hear Halpine, Montgomery country, The stories of the sensational affair, which has been the talk of Glendale for a week, are as contradictory as is possible for them to be. Accordi to combined current reports, Hall was Insanely jealous of the older man. That this jealously was without foundation, is the belief of many of the citizens of the community. Mrs, Hall herself today said that her hus band's actions were entirely unwar ranted, and that she did not justify them. Boarded With Halls. Last summer Kalbfus boarded with the Hall family, while the latier was occupying the home of the old man's son for the summer. It was then that the acquaintance began.

On the day »f the assault Kalbfus was in a store at Glendale, when Hall came in. A few moments later the oid man left in the direction of his home, and Hall was seen to follow. It is said that Hall overtook Kalbfus in a lonely ravine about a mile from town, and, without a word, began to vent his anger upon the old man. It is related that he beat the ex-soldler un mercifully about the face, kicked him, and horsewhipped him. Kalbfus is said to have made no effort to retaliate, be {snd vainly endeavoring to escape from is assailant. All the while the two young children of Hall were screaming from his nearby wagon: “Don’t beat dpa,” calling Kalbfus by the familiar pet name by which he was generaily known. After he had completed his work of vengeance Hall drove homeward, and, meeting a colored laborer, said: “You had better go down the road and see about old man Kalbfus. I do not think he can get home.” The negro, however, paid nc atteution to the matter, but later Kalbfus, his face bruised and bleeding, wes brought to the yitiage by Arthur Snowden, a passerby, who found him along the roadside. The aged man was immediately rushed to Garfield Hospital. The arrest of Hall and the near-lynching followed in the afternoon. Nothing to Conceal. “I have nothing to conceal,” said Hall today. ‘This man had been warned re peatedly that I did not relish his atten tions to my wife. When I came upon him Wednesday last he looked back as 1 appreached, as though he expected something. He got it. He knew thet it was coming to him, because I told him so. “Tried to fight! No, he didn’t try tc fight. All he did was to cling to a tree and endeavor tc run. When ar raigned I refused to plead gullty to a charge of assault with intent to kill, because I intend to show that I was justified. I don’t deny beating hi oth with my fists and mv whip, but he was not so badly hurt that he could not walk.” “My husband came home¢ that day,” said Mrs. Hall, “and said he supposec 1 would be satisfied now. He told me that I should stick to him through this and that everything would be all right I cannot afford to do so, as it would lock as though I were guilty of some of the insinuations he has made.” —eeeoooooooooe Friend of Family. “1 have always regarded Mr. Kalufus more as a grandfather than anything else, He is a purfect gentleman, anc has been a friend of our family. Mj; husband has no reason for this insant jealousy. He forbade me even speaking to the old man, and has insulted hin every time when I did do so. I shal help to defend myself when the matte comes to trial, because I am innocen! of no wrong and shouid I countenanc the unmerciful beating given to Mr Kalbfus it would hag to throw ns icion upon me. vé no sym: with my husband's action.”

W. Affleck's It is related by people of the com munity that so jealous was Ha! o the old man that he siahhed his fac at a recent church festival. This wa said to have been on account of Mrs Hall s ng to Kalbfus as he en tered the room. After this indignit Kalbfus wrote Mrs. Hall a letter ii which he said that he would fee {obliged to prosecute her husband, al though he was loath to bring he name into the matter. This, sai the this morning, accentuated his ange {toward the man, and perhaps figure Total ...occociivnnnnnnnnnn ll, 955 his “RTE TERRE TTR TE, ToT vad Taw bo a a CHANCE: FOR BRYAN IN MANY COMBINES Various Tables of Electoral Votes Give Nebraskan the Majority. INCLUDE NEW YORK IN CALCULATIONS Many Still Believe in the Old Sign, That the Efection Will Go With the Empire State. If William Jennings Bryan has luck— hard 'uck—he will get only 102 votes in the electoral college out of a total of 452. 1f Mr. Taft has equally bad luck he will be able to count only 118 votes in the college. The result will be something between 381 for Taft to 102 for Bryan, and 36 for Bryan to 118 for Taft. This is based on the calculations of the tipsters. Between the antipodal conciusions of opposing enthusiasts, there is a marvelous range of possi bilities comcerning the outcome. The Bouth—once always referred to as the solid South—means 169 electoral votes, if you include Maryland, Mis sour, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Ne vada, but leave out West Virginia. But this year Maryland, with eight votes, is commonly regarded as quite as sure for Taft as Missouri is for Bryan. So the South may be set down as repre senting 161 votes. It takes 242 to elect. Mr. Bryan must hold the South aud gain eighty-one somewhere else to win. The man who hangs up on his wall a map of the Union, with the number of electoral votes written in each State, will presently discover that there is an infinite variety of calculations. If he is a Democrat and sets out to figure ways to elact Bryan, he must decide [first whether he will get his votes East or Er TT If he concludes to get them East, he will list New York, Coanecticut, New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland for his man, along with the 161 of the South, and will still be short; but he caa inake up the shortage by putting in Indiana with filieen votes, and making a total of 245, which is three more than enough. “XI we decides to draw his vores from the West, he may drop the East out of the calueulation, and, listing the South at 166, add to it enough Western States to produce the result, thus: The South EE 63 WitGORE IN o. cos sstrsrcinnssstvinernscarnine. 13 3 Montana Indiana tah ...eue California Illinois covessrsessrncnsuns ELE LE EE TE LARA EEE EEE EE EE EEE EE EE EE EE EE 14 If he will take that tabulation and go out looking for arguments, he will find plenty of mocrate ready to take cheer from it, and to assure him that it proves that Bryan can win, Reasons Given, Fie will be assured that ‘“‘the South is ali right;” that “Wisconsin has learn ed radicalism and independence from La Follette;” that “Montana is sure Eryan country this year;” that “Indiana is nailed down;"” that Colorado, Utah and California ‘are full of Rogseveltism, and the only man representing Roose veltismm now is Bryan; and that Iili nois “is disgusted with Hopkins and Canncn, and full of unemployed.” But if be will ask the next man-—a Republican—he will be told that Tart will carry everything Roosevelt carried in 104, and in addition will get Ken tucky, Tennessee and Georgla; leaving Bryan only a paltry 102 electoral votes. And for this he will get some equally ef fective arguments. He will learn that it is “time for the South to break up, and the South knows it;” ihat “two Republican tickets in Tennessee will bring out all the votes, and Taft will get the benefit from both crowds;” that “Kentucky is really Re publican now, anyhow.” Nevada will be set down as a sure Repubncan State because of its recent influx of popula tion largely from the North and West.

Luther Johnson, the second colored person within a period of six months to have his heart ripped with a knife and live to tell the story after having the ragged tear sewed up by a physi cian at the Emergency Hospital, was reported as much improved this morn ing. The delicate operation was per formed by Dr. Charles W. White, who assisted Dr. Vaug in a similar opera tion several months ago. Not only has Johnson's condition greatly improved, but the men in at tendance upon him announced today that there is absclutely no fear of the man's death, and that he will be dis charged as recovered within a few weeks provided no unforeseen ~.mpli cations set in. This is the second remarkable opera tion to have been performed &t ths Emergency in a period of ten days. Shortly after Johnson's case was dis posed of John Alvin Dent, a twelve vear-old colored boy, apparently suc cumbed to an administration of chloro form during an operation for blood poisoning. The boy's heart stopped beat ing for eighteen minutes, and although pronounced dead by two attending phy sicions, Dr. White made an incision and by massaging the heart brought back circulation and life to the body. This part of the operation, which has been successfully accomplished but three times in the history of the pro fession, was successful, but the boy afterward died from the bloed-poisoning which had been allowed to go too long before receiving attention, HUNGRY CHINAMEN START A MUTINY Crew on Fruit Steamer Try to Kill Steward Because of Food.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Aug. 18.-With the riot situation completely in the hands of the city authorities and outlaw spirits thoroughly quieted, the First and Fourth Regiments today departed for their respective stations. It is expected that orders will be given today for the Second and Seventh Regi ments to leave tomorrow. The Fifth Infantry, made up from: towns near Spring:ieid, and the First Cavalry will be the last to go. There has been no sign of an out break since early yesterday morning, when the last firing occurred between the soldiers and some scattered negroes. Troops, however, will continue to patrol the streets and guard the negro quar ters. The grand jury, which was sworn in yesterday afternoon, closed the day by finding an indictment against George Richardscn, alleged assallant of Mrs. Earl Hallam. The jury then adjourned until this morning, when it began an investigation of the riots. As fast as true bills are voted and the indictments can be drawn, they will be returned to the court, and the men, if not under ar rest, placed in jail The jury has a great mass of evidence to work on. There are 100 under ar rest, charged with participation or lead ership in the disorder. The funeral of Willlam H.

Not raore than a dozen per sons attended the service, as all of the victim's family are in Chicago, where they fled the night of the lynching. The negro members of the Springfield fire department have bean discharged by Mayor Reece, “for the good of the service.” There has heen severe fric tion in the fire stations ever since the riot of Friday night, and the mayor thought it best to rid the department of negroes, and avoid all chances of trou ‘ble among the firemen.

That the failure of Congress to make provision for the increase in popula tion and the number of criminal cases handled annually by the courts is re sponsible for the crowded conditions at the United States jail in east Washing ton, is the statement made this morn ing by Judges Kimball and Mullowny, who sit in the United States and Dis trict branches of the Police Court. Both judges are emphatic in their de mand for better jail accommodations; both insist that better provision should be made, and both declsre the present conditions should not be permitted to exist. No two men in Washington are better qualified to discuss the subject.

NEW YORK, Aug I3.—Virtually every officer in the United States Army was rallied to the defense eof Capt. Peter C. Hains, jr., the siayer of Wil liam E. Annis, today, by ae publication of a story to the effect that Mrs. Hains, in counter-charge to her hus band's divorce proceedings, had depicted conditions in American army circles which, i! proved to exist, would result fn a scandal second cnly to the state of affairs among the “Knights of the Round Table,” the German army's in famous coterie.

Indignant denlals were forthcoming on every side, but there seems Du Way of heading off an inevitable sensation. Army Men to Defend Charge. Army officers declare that even though the charges in the newspaper stories are ignored by the Government, which is not considered likely, they themselves will demand an investigation to purge the atmosphere of army life from the taint spread through it by Mrs. Hains’ clleged charge. The exact text of the army captain's wife's allegations has not yet become public, the only information regarding it being contained in an interview with her father in which he is guoted as stating that probably the most startling s’ate ments are those in which Captain Hains is accused of misconduct while on his wedding tour and again at Fort Monros. Papers Served cn Hains. Service of the papers in which Mrs. Hains made her sensational charges was made on Captain Hains a week ago last Monday. Both Mrs. Hains and her rather, after Hains had accused his wire of miscon decided that tae wife would take Stas 9.34 la] 1 Jublic of o Captain Hains and od’ et 5 depravities in ammy eircies at Fort Hamilton and Fort Mouroe. That these matters will ali coma out in the trial of ise Haias brothers now seems certain. Mrs. Hains is determined to tell her story, whether it occasions a scandal In the army or not. Extra Guards for Jail Rumors that the Hains brothers had repented their attitude of desiring vin dication and were meditating an escape from the flimsy Long Island City jail in which they sre confined, has led to day to the placing of extra guards over them. Both General Hains and a brother of the prisoners, Major John Powell Hains, of Chicago, are here today, as is also R. P. Hains, of Boston, an uncle of the slayers. All are men of means, and are standing solidly behind the men who killed Annis. There will be no lack of funds for the defense, as, besides the fortunes of their relatives, Capt. Peter C. Hains nimself has an income of about $16,600 a year, and his brother, T. Jenkins, is considered wedlthy from the royalties of his writings. fle father, brother, and uncle of the Hains brothers are here fighiing their battle ont at Sandy Hook, at Fort Hancock the aged mether of the slayer and his children are under guard tO prevent the intrusion of unwelcoms visitors upon the grief of the aged woman.

USES SHEER NERVE 10 FIGHT DEATH 2

Rattlesnake’s Victim Battling to Overcome Effect of Venom. “I'LL WIN,” SAYS ROSE, WHILE BEARING PAIN Employe of Zoo, Into Whose Hand Reptiie Sank Fangs, Suffers, But May Recover. “Every hour that Rose lives incr~ases his chances of recovery, and as he nas by sheer force of wil' fought off the poisonous virus for forty-eight hours, when the ordinary man would have succumbed from exhaustion and pain and given up the fight, I have strong hopes for his ultimate recovery." Dr. William Carr, of the Emergency Hospital, who is waging a battle of science against the venom of the dia mond rattlesnake, which sank its fangs into Rodney Rose, keeper at the Zoo, Monday morning, thus expressed his confidence that the victim of the snake’ bite will yet triumph over the poison that is coursing through his veins. “He is one of the most gritty patients I ever attended” sald the physician this morning. “For forty-eight hours he has suffered intense agony with remarkable stoicism. Every hour my hope for re covery increases, and so long as he holds his own ani does not lose ground I am satisfied. An improvement, but a very slight one, is noticeable, and the discoloration of his upper arm is giving away gradually to its normal color. That is a very encouraging sign. Has a Fighting Chance. “Rose has a fighting chance. But Rose is chock fuli of nerve, and if ever ‘a man won on a fighting chance, he will. All the medicine and antitoxin ia the world isn't very effective if a pa tient makes up his mind that he's a ‘goner.’ If I toid him he was not going to recover, 1 believe he would dispute me.”

In his room at the Emergency Hos pital, Rodney Rose, the man of nerve, is fighting for his life. He is perfectly aware of the slenderness of the thread by which his life is hanging. No one knows better than he that his recovery depends upon himself more than upon anything the physicians can do for him, and as he lies on his couch with his left arm bare and outstretched, he turns his head every few minutes and gazes on the discolored limb,

i “I'll win yet,” he murmurs repeatedly, between his closed teeth. And all the time, the shooting pains are darting up his arm and through his body tearing at his nervous system, and making him suffer as few mortals have to suffer. Oace in a while, says Dr. Carr, a moan ¢scapes his white lips as a paroxysm of pain of unusual intensity sets his nerves quivering. But the teeth regmain clinch ed and he is as determin as ever. i

Sees Only Nurse and Doctor. No one sees him but Dr. Carr and the nurse, and often he talks to them between his teeth and asks them if they don’t think the time has come when they can give him a little sedative without danger. But every time, the physician and nurse tell him it might mean death, and Rose sets his jaws firmly and answers, ‘Oh, well, the pain can't last much longer, anyhow.” Any attempt to relieve the intense pain might result in the patient sinking into a state of coma from which he would never awake, says Dr. Carr. It is a case where the suifering must be endured. In fact, he says, many em fnent authorities hold that the agony of pain is part of the cure, as its in tensity keeps the man from lapsing into a fatal unconsciousness. Only one injection of the powerful snake antitoxin has been made. More might mean death from its own poison ous influence. That injection was made in the side near the heart, so that the insidious poison of the reptile mignt be kept from the heart as much as pos sible. Frequent hypodermic doses of strychnine are administered, however, in the effort to keep him from falling into a coma. A thirtieth of a grain is administered every three hours.

Gets Half-Hour Naps. Every few hours Rose is allowed to take a short nap, never lasting more than half an hour. Then he is roused by the nurse, who almost constantly is by his side, and aithough his eyelids feel as if they were leaden, he shakes his head from side to side and routs the sleep that creeps over his tired brain and seeks to wrap him in its mantle of death. i 1 When he finds himself succumbing to its influence he makes desperate ef forts to retain his consciousness. This morning, when tired with the work of fighting off the peacefulness of slee which is to him like food just out o reach of a starving man, he turned to the nurse and asked that she stick a pin in him to keep him awake.

“Keep up the good fight,” Dr. Carr keeps saying to him. “¥ou bet I will,” responds Rose, and he clinches his teeth an fichting against the orim d keeps on nov s al BX ici ALTON B. PARKER MAKES PREDICTION PORTLAND, Ore. Aug. 19.—Alton B. Parker, who with De Lancey Nicoll, of New York, has arrived here to open the Democratic campaign’ in Oregon today, is on record as prophesying a campaign of surprises. Mr. Parker said: “Theres will be many strange develop ments in the campaign before the fall. I do not wish to comment on them or to say what they will be.

DOG AS A DETECTIVE RANKS WITH VIDOCQ Parisian Police Fail to Find Dum my, But Clever Beast Keeps the Trail. PARIS, Aug. 18.—Vidocqg, most famous of French detectives, will go down In history alongside a Belgian sheepdog, Jules. This wonderful animal, which has made the cleverest of the Parisian police seem amateurs in comparison, has just been awarded first prize in a competi tion between human sleuths and dogs.

When a dummy criminal was rigged up and placed in hiding by the conductors of the contest the best trained detec tives of France lest the scent and con fessed their inability to find their quarry. But the old dog, taking the smell from the outset, leaped palisades and followed the route of escape through streams, over roofs, and underground and was chewing tha dummy to pieces in his lair before eveh the conductors reached the spot.

The dog's owner has refused $1,000 for the animal. Paris is raving over him. AUTOIST PAYS FINE; BANK HOLDS CHECK Speeding Driver Stops Collection After Settling With Justice of the Peace.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 19.—-On June 28 Justice Carver, of Elwood, Atlantic county, imposed a fine of $10 and costs on Dr. Julius Shenklin, of Philadelphia, for speeding his automobile on the White Horse pike.

At the time the physician did not have the cash with him, and, at his so leitation, Squire Carver accepted a check for $13.50. This was subsequently turned over to State Commissioner of Vehicles Smith, to whom the check was made out. It was deposited in a Tren ton bank, but later it was returned with the information that payment had been stopped.

i Yesterday Inspector Charles Pedigree visited Dr. Shenklin and asked for an explanation. He was told by the physi cian that payment on thé check had been stopped. When asked for the rea son, Dr. Shenklin said because he was not guilty of speeding his machine. It has been said by a physician that most diseases are the result of indiges tion.

There's undoubtedly much truth in the statement, even to the cause of many unsightly eruptions, which many sup pose can be removed by applying some remedy on the outside.

By changing her food a Kan. girl was relieved of an eczema which was a great annoyance to her. She writes: “For five months I was suffering with an eruption on my face and hands which our doctor called eczema and which cavsed me a great deal of inconveni ence. The suffering was almost unbear able.

“The medicine I took only gave me temporary relief. One day I happened 0 read somewhere that eczema wae caused by indigestion. Then I read that many persons had been relieved of in digestion by eating Grape-Nuts, “I decided to try it. I liked the taste of the food and was particularly pleased to notice that my digestion was improv ing and that the eruption was disap jearing as if by magic. I had at last ound, in this great food, something thag reached my trouble, “When I find a victim of this affliction I remember my own former suffer and advise a trial of Grape-Nuts food instead of medicines.” “There's a Rea~ Name given by Pestum Co.

THE WASHINGTON TIMES, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 19, 1908. 46 cnet RETURN OLD RECORDS OF NEW YORK CITY Valuable Portion of Early Dutch Records Reverts to the City Librarv. NEW YORK, Aug. 19.—A valuable perilon of the early Dutch records of the city of New York, then Mew .Am stoerdam, was returned a few days ago to Philip Baer, librarian of the city library, by the Rev. Henry S., Burrage, State historian of Maine. Lr, Burrage, who was once chaplain of the National Sodiers’ Home at Togus, came in close personal contact with Lieut, B. Fornow, an inmate of the home, who dled there a few mouths 2go. Mr. Fernow's brother, dean of the forestry department ¢f the I'ni varsity of Toronto, Canada, attended the settlement of his brother's estate, and ih so doing gave to Dr. Burrage some books and papers, among which was found a manuscript in the Dutch lan fFuage treating of the “Nisuw Amster dam” from 1661 to 1664 Dr. Burrage wrote to the Yirarian of the city of New Yori, ana Mr. Baer replied with a request te see the manu script. The library clerk of the Holland Society, Bingham Versteeg, was réguest ed tc read the manuscript. It was with the keenest satisfaetion that he found it to be the missing records of the mee’ ings of the Burgomasters, that is to say a continuation of the “Administrative Minutes of New Amsterdam,” from Feb Tuary 11, 1661, to May 20, 1664.

LIMA, Peru, Aug. 15.—Miss Annie 8. Peck, the noted mountain climber, is still fast in the bleak passer of Mt Huascaran, whether dead or alive it is not yet known. Searching parties were organized yesterday, and went in pur suit of the American climber. The search 18 not only a hazardous one, but Miss Peck's achievement of mounting to 250 feet is one which never before had been accomplished by a man or woman, A signal from Miss Peck last Friday brought news of her feat, but that is the last word receivea trom her or from the two guides who accompaniéd her.

Great confidence is felt in Mice Peck’s ability to withstand the weather and overcome the great difficulties that con front a climber on the perilous moun tain peak, but at the some time it is realized that even an experienced climber is in great danger, Miss Peck made an attempt to climb Mt. Huascaran in the summer of 195. At that time she reached an altitude of 20,000 feet, which was the record at that time. She was compelled to turn buck to the village, however, through rebel lion on the part of her guldes, one of whom was “a harmless lunatic” whom the natives referred to as the “loco,” and three Indians. The “loco” was harmiess so far as actual violence was concerned, but he had a habit er wan dering off. Once he lost himsalf und the parometer. The “loco” was found, but the barcmeter was lost forever. Finally Miss Peck was compelled to turn back without having conquered the mountain.

Last year Miss Peck visited Washing ton and several other large cities to get funds for her expedition. When her sii nal came last Friday that she had reached 25,000 feet everybody here was astonished and her return from Lhe mountain was pagerly awalted. Miss Peck’s home is in Providence, R. IL.

GOT TOO FAMILIAR WITH POLICE JUDGE John Kane Addressed Judge as “Old Pal” and gets $5 Fine. John Kane, arrested by Policeman Beckett for begging, made a big mis take in court this morning when he started to get familiar with Judge Mul lowney. There are some things a pris oner can say to a police court judge and get away with them, but wien you hand out a line of talk and use the expression “You it was this way, old pal,” then cones the curtain and slow music. Kane told his little hard-luck story, and was making a hit with it. He mitted being up all nigh tand finding himself in the early morning with a antic thirst and no money, Judge Mullowney sympathized with the prison er, and a benevolent look in his eye indicated that Kane might be allowed to go free, until the fatal words, “You see it is this way, old pal,” were ut tered. “Take him away and let him pay a 30 fine,” said the judge. INDICTED BY JURY; PARTRIDGE GONE John W.

Dis rict Attorney Baker said this morning that he had reason to believe that Partridae would voluntarily give himself up and obtain his release on bond. If Holland Spanks Castro, Washington Will Be Relieved Chastisement of Venezuela One of Things United States Is Willing to Do by Proxy—Difficulties of Accomplishing It. Castro will be spanked hy pJxy. Uncle Sam has consented to ailow Hol land to serve as the proxy, if she cares to undertake the task. Castro, however, will not be permitted to firnish a proxy. The American minister to Holland, on advices from Washington, has assured the Duteh foreign office that the United States has no objection to the spanking process, provided Holland will not un dertake to infringe on Venezuelan terri tory. Just how Holland will get blood out of the Venezuelan turnip without occupying some territory is not very apparent; but the Dutch have demon strated a most canny faculty for get ting returns on their investments, and there is a calm confidence that if they send an expedition to Venezuela they will not make such a bad investment of it. i It is just possible that the Dutch would not be enthusiastic over the kindly permission Uncle S8am has given them {f they knew of some of the dis cussions that have taken place in the Foreign Affairs Committees of the two Houses of Congress in the past year. It is well known here that this problem i of what to 4% with Castro has been a good deal discussed at the State De partment, the White House, and in Congressional committees. The diffi

culties seemed so great as hardly to warrant the effort.

At War Now, in Theory. Theoretically, Castro is at war with several countries now; that is, he has severed diplomatic relations with them. If it were not for the Monroe Doctrine, there is small doubt that the Castro regime would end with foreign occupa tion and a complete change gov ernment, Germany, or Great Britain, or France, or Italy long age would have taken possession of some sort of sphere of influence, from which the govern ment of the turbulent republic could be watched and kept in bounds. But as it stands, no country can figure where there is any money to be made out of attacking Venezuela, The customs re ceipts of the country are largely sub ject to a trust or receivership, from which claims of Italy, Germany and France are being paid. There are some minor ports whose receipes Holland might attach: but as the matter is understood here, it would be a slow process of eking out satisfaction.

Campaign Is Difficult. When the castigation of Castro was talked about by members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee 1nat winter, they were given to emphasizing the difficulty of a campaign against that country. Venezuela is a big region, and it has no really vital points ex posed to attack. The country which attacks it must be prepared for a very considerable military expedition, in region whose topography {is entirqly favorable to the defending force. The effect commercially would be more serious on the attacking than on the defending force, because the paying part of Venezuelan commerce is largely in the hands of foreigners, who would be the greatest losers. At the best, 3 war with Venezuela was looked upon by members of Congress as a bootless enterpr.. 2 which might prove peculiarly undignified, #nd possibly disastrous. Once undertaken, there could be ng turning back until adequate punishment had been inflicted. Just how this punishment could be ‘m posed, short of a species of government. al trusteeship under American control similar to the stiuation in Cuba or in Santo Domingo—has never been made

POTATOES ON VINE IN GROUND AND OUT WATERBURY, Conn. Aug. 17.—Sam uel Wilson, of Wolcott, is raising po tatoes both above and below ground on the same vine as a result of two years of experimenting. A few weeks ago, on leoking over his new potato plants, he saw little bud-like protuberances growing out from the bases of the leaves. Thase buds developed into well formed und good-sized potatoes of the same kind as those growing at the roots of the plants.

Then there will be no steam to permeate the whole house every washday.” The Different Kind of Soap. That, in a nutshell, is Fels-Naptha. Different—because Fels-Naptha is more than a soap—it is a different way of washing, Different—because Fels-Naptha gets the wash ready for the line in about half the time of any other soap. Different—because Fels-Naptha itself does the work of loosening the dirt from the fabric, which every other soap leaves to you to do with the washboard. Different—because with Fels-Naptha there’s no backache: no need for long bending over the tub, as with other soaps. Different—because Fels-Naptha saves the ciothes: (1) from weakening of the £bre by heat; (2) from the wear of hard rubbing. Different—because Fels-Naptha actually does in cool or lukewarm water what the best other soaps will not do even in scalding hot water.
