By 4 o'clock in the morning the whole city was agog. People were making hurried flight! down the hull and along the levels of the city, hunting the open restaurant lor the earlier breakfatt than they usually knew; and that dispensed, hurrying till again to the waterfront to board the steamer and launches on which they had secured their passage to the, various coast points of vantage. And it was a jolly host wilhal, with jest nd joke rampant everywhere and pleasant expectations ahead for all hands. The Callender pier was the center of departure, so to speak, there being even of the bay steamers and launches for excursion purposes berthed there. By S o'clock, the ap pointed and tidal hour of departure, the steamers Melville. Wenona, Jor dan, Julia H., and the launches Hulda I., and Queen, were soon peopled with their respective quotas and swung away down the bay, instantly followed by the Electro, the Pilot No. 2, the Patrol, and numerous other wift craft, until shortly a line of a dozen or more was headed for the sheltered waters of llwaco Bay, and 65 minutes later each and all were cnugly docked in the beautiful bight that lies under the frowning heights of Canby, and a thousand excursion ists, men, women and children, were soon swarming over the headlands, the ubiquitous lunch basket being the sign and substance everywhere. Later in the morning the A. C. special trains to the coast resorts left the city loaded with hundreds of eager passengers bound for all the places Nietween the jetty and Tillamook Head; and the ocean-going craft of the hour pulled out for the" deeper waters with still other hundreds, all equipped and anxious for the best possible view and contact with the great white fleet that was due to pass the Columbia bar at high noon. It was a holiday in Astoria after 10 o'clock in the morning. Practically very business house, bank and public and private office was closed, and the people that remained in the city, sought the lofty points of view at tnc propitious hour for catching the farther sight of the passing squad; rons; nor will it be denied in any quarter that the day was one of real enjoyment to all hands, THE Length i Horse- Speed in r,.

By 10 o'clock the crowd began to be augmented by the swarms of sight seers from the interior and scores of teams .and wagon laden with all manner of good-natured folk and the ever-abounding lunch-basket and the hilts and hollows and roads Were soon black with visitors. It is estimated that not less than 4000 people con gregated -on the.up-lands from the Canby light to that on North Head. At 10:30 the smoke of the fleet was picked by the hundreds of glasses that were brought down by the visi tors and from that moment the in terest in the. quest of the day quick ened and developed with every mile of nearness of the beautiful ships. The day offered but one draw-back, and one only; the sun did not come out and stay out; it was clear thethe sea was quiet beyond the great barrier of the Columbia and the reefs that flank it on the north and south; but it was murky and dark, and the sunlight was sorely needed to brighten the details of the spectacle in all its stages, from the time the smoke-clouds were noted to the south of Tillamook Head, un til the last of the splendid ships swung away into the dim north. By 11:30 the ships were in plain view, and their progress was marked by the interested thousands all along the coast line. They were seen to veer into the great bight beneath .the giant headland of Tillamook,' and their passage in there niade every soul of the north shore wish he or she had gone to Seaside or Cearhart or Clat sop Beach, or the Jetty, because it was evident they were closer inshore there than they could be on the reaches above the Columbia, and the reports from the Oregon side of the Colum bia, 4ater in the day, proved this to be the case, for the ships were within a mile of the great host of watchers in the bight and offered a magnificent view almost in detail. As they passed out of the bight they strung out in single file and made for the lightship, and then moved in FLEET THAT PASSED aiO i 'P ASTORIA, OREGON, Washingtonians again toward the Washington shore passing on the landward side of the lightship and about four miles at sea. The spectacle was splendid and in spiring even at that distance, and the long line was reviewed with profound delight and interest as it drew away into the. north, and the people linger ingly withdrew from the headlands and made their way back to the waiting home fleet assembled in the quieter waters of the Columbia. The line of ships was divided into four squadrons, as follows: First The Connecticut, Kansas, Minnesota and Vermont. Second Georgia, Nebraska, New Jersey and Rhode Island. Third Louisiana, Virginia, Ohio and Missouri. Fourth Wisconsin, Illinois, Kcar sarge and Kentucky; with the hospital ship Relief in attendance upon the fleet The Roanoke excursion was the most notable of the special ventures of the day. She left port with 515 passengers on board and made splen did connections with the fleet, circl ing in and out and around the 17 fine fighters in such fashion as gave her people all possible opportunity for close and critical view of each and every vessel. She sighted the fleet at 12:30 just outside the bar and bore down on it at once and got into wire less communication with the flagship Connecticut as she approached the line. Unforhmately the weather was too rough to permit Admiral Sperry to make good on the proposition that he take lunch on board the big liner, a matter that was seriously regretted by all her passengers, for it had been one of tNic especial attractions of the deep water, excursion that the com mander-in-chief would board the Roanoke. There was considerable seasickness on board, and the sickest of the Roanoke's crowd rallied long enough to declare his disappointment in the non-appearance of the admiral. The trip was barren of all accidents, save the loss of a hat overboard and even that was not remarked by its sick loser until he got inside the bar again. The crowd was full of fun and the trip was eminently successfully in all ways. A fine moving picture film was captured by Messrs. Fritz, Sutton (Continued on page 4) THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1908 PS s era rflno rn ENTER STRAITS JUAN DE FUCA PORTLAND, May 21.The United Wireless Telegraph has received a message from the Atlantic squadron reporting that the battleships entered the Straits Juan Dc Fuca at 12:30 thin mornincr. with the sea calm and a four-mile wind blowing from the south and raining. UNINSTRUCTED DELEGATES. HARRISBURG, May 20.-Aftcr one of the hardest fights within the party for several years the demo cratic state convention nerc today de cided not to instruct its delegates at large to the Denver convention for Bryan. It was clean cut victory for the democratic machine headed by Colonel J. M. Guffey, of Pennsylvania, a member ot the national committee. The Bryanites under the leadership of the executive committee of the Bryan democratic league had a large follow ing and they fought to the bitter end. The 64 district delegates who were elected in April and the convention had nothing to do with them in the matter of issuing instructions. RAYNERS ENTREATY Declares His Belief That the Commit tee on Military Affairs Would Not Report His Resolution During the Present Session of Congress. WASHINGTON, May 20.-Senator Raynor again today made an appeal to the" Senate for a vote on his resolu tion "Authorizing and requesting" the president to appoint a court in inquiry to investigate the charges against Col. W. F. Stewart, of the coast artillery, stationed at Fort Grant, Arizona. Raynor declared his belief that the committee on military affairs would not report his resolution during the present session of Congress and asked that a modified resolution which he had prepared be acted upon by the Senate without the intervention of the committee, Objection being made to a further consideration of the reso lution it was postponed. LI HIE CRITICIZED Connecticut Joined in Voting Against the Resolution by Which the House 'Adopted the Conclusions of the Committee as Its Own. WASHINGTON, May 20. -The mittee which have been investigating the charges of Representative LHley that the members of the house have been improperly influ enced in connection with the torpedo boat legislation; that Lilley had vio lated his obligations as a member and had acted in bad faith with the com mittee and was in contempt of the house, was sustained by the house by a vote of 157 to 82. Five hours of the session were devoted to his case, four of which were consumed in reading the report. Connecticut joined in vot ing against the resolution by which the house adopted the conclusions of the committee as its own. Williams of Mississippi denounced Lilley as being guilty of treason for which he said he should be expelled. It was a noticeable fact that five mem bers of the special committee Bou tell, Olmstead, Stevens, Broussard and Howard sat together throughout the proceedings and none of them submitted any remarks in connected with the report. A partial conference report on the sundry civil bill occa sioned a lively debate. It was adopted and the conferees will continue their efforts to arrive at complete, agree ments. 20VERSTHE MORNING FIELD ON mm. wish HEARTLESS MURDER DONE ON DEEP IH YESTERDAY John McClellan of Nasel By Michael Campbell FIVE BULLETS ENTERED THE VICTOR BACK Bad Blood Said to Have Existed Between the Men Murderer Did Not Even Change Color During the Killing and Coolly Walked to His Nearby Home SHERIFF AND CORONER OF MURDERED MAN PROMINENT AND RESPECTED CITIZEN OF LOWER COLUMBIA COUN TRY-LEAVES WIFE AND SEV ERAL CHILDREN FEELIN G IN THE DEEP RIVER VALLEY VERY PRONOUNCED ON C HARACTER OF RASH DEED. Yesterday afternoon at 2:25 o'clock, John M. McClellan, of Nasel, a man of 55 years, and one of the best known and most highly respected citizens of the lower Columbia territory, was de liberately shot to death by Michael Campbell, on the deck of the power launch Lexington, as that vessel ap proached Wilhelm's Landing on Deep River. The story, as given by an eye witness of the tragedy, and a man of unimpeachable character for probity and disinterestedness, is, that Mr. McClellan was standing on the deck of the power launch as it swung into the landing, and noting Michael Campbell on shore, nearby, and ap proaching the river bank, called out to him a reproachful message about his, Campbell's, having once "lied about me," the exact wording of the call having not been heard clearly by anyone present. To this taunt Camp bell and began talking to two friends who stood on either side and very close to him. Without a word of warning Camp bell drew his six-shooter and taking deliberate aim at McClellan's back, fired three shots into him, and his victim fell across the housing of the launch, dying and gasping, sent two more bullets into his body; then cooly replaced his revolver in his pocket, picked up an empty cream can, and leisurely strolled back to his home. When he fired the shots he was not more than eight feet from his victim, one of the friends of the murdered man being powder-burned from the latter shots. The 'whole affair did not occupy more than a single minute of time, and was a simple case of sheer and heartless murderaccording to the SOUTHERN PACIFIC EXPRESS NO. 16 WRECKED AT PINOLE DISASTER MAY HAVE BEEN CA ENGINE, EXPRESS, AND BAG AND TURNED OVER THRE OAKLAND, Cal., May 20. The second section of the Southern Pa cific train 16, known as the Oregon express, which left Oakland mole at 8:50 tonight was wrecked at Pinole at 9:40 p. m. One man was killed and four injured. Express Messenger Cummings, dead. Injured Fireman Cody; will die. R.' J. Ward, engineer; will die. THE LOWER COLUMBIA PRICE FIVE CENTS 1 Deliberately Shot to Death at Wilhelm's Landing WAHKIAKUM COUNTY NOTIFIED estimate of everyone who saw it. It is said that Campbell did not speak a single word nor change color during the dastardly transaction. It is said that there has been more or less bad blood between the two men for sometime past; that Camp bell once suffered defeat in a law case on the testimony supplied by the dead man, and that on this score Campbell had once, not long ago, had an encounter with McClellan at Nasel, in which he beat the latter pretty badly with his fists; and that this was the ground-work of the desperate tragedy of yesterday. Word was instantly sent to the authorities at Cathlamet and the sheriff was notified of the murder and left at once for the scene of the crime and no doubt has the murderer, in custody at this writing. The body of Mr. McClellan was brought on to this city and delivered into the official care of Coroner W. C. A. Pohl, who will hold it subject to the orders of the authorities of Wahkiakum county, Captain J .W. Babbidge, of the Lex ington deeming this to be the most practical way of disposing of a very startling and dubious problem thus thrust upon him, and it is approved on all sides as the only proper thing I to have done in the premise. The feeling up and down the river in Washington is very intense and the murder is condemned in unmitigated terms everywhere. Mr. McClellan leaves a wife and three children upon whom the fear ful burden of death falls with crush ing force and these bereaved ones have the deepest sympathy of the whole citizenry of that country, be: sides that of many devoted friends on 1 this side of the Columbia. USED BY BROKEN RAIL THE GAGE CAR JUMPED THE TRACK E COACHES LEFT THE RAILS. Express Messenger Birmingham was badly crushed about the waist; may recover. W. W. Rodehorer, helper on ex press car; fractured ankle. The wreck is said to have been caused by a broken rail. The engine, express and baggage car jumped the track and turned over.' Three pas senger coaches left the rails, but re mained upright. No passengers were injured. WAR!

AMERICAN HARDWOODS. ,The rapid consumption of American hardwoods is causing the timber deal ers of the United States to turn their attention to the supplies of adjoining countries. The mesquite of Texas is beginning to find favor, several car loads having recently been shipped from the State to Michigan, where the wood is manufactured into furniture. Mexico has a pretty fair supply of this class of timber and Our manufac turers would like to break in upon it, but there is a stiff export duty impos ed by Mexico on unmanufactured timber which stands in the way of their desires, and is not likely to be removed, for the Mexicans in impos ing it were inspired by the double purpose of conserving their timber supply and of encouraging domestic manufactures. No obstacles are plan ned in the way of its use by manuac turers in Mexico, but mesquite is not likely to go out of the republic in its raw state. while the Mexicans are in their present frame of mind S.

Czar Nicholas of all the Russias 40 years old today. We naturally think of him as an older man than that; he has lived many years more than 40, though that is all the calendar gives him credit for. But they hav been long years; they have been years filled with trouble, years haunted with fear and years teeming with terror. The throne of Russia is not a com fortable seat; its present occupant is credited by the world with a desire to improve the condition of his people but his wish is not destined to be realized to any great extent until the people are changed; they are incapa ble of national improvement in their present condition. Nicholas II was born May 18, 1868, and is the eighth ruler to represent the house of Romanoff-Holstein on the throne of Russia. He ascended on the throne November 1, 1894, upon the death of his father, Emperor Alexan der III. A few weeks later he was married to Princess Alexandria Alix, daughter of Grand Duke Ludwig IV of Hesse. They have five children, four of them daughters, the youngest a son, who will be four years old next August. i PATERNAL INTEREST. The most notable feature of the budget which Premier Asquith has presented to the British house of com mons is the provision for allowances from the national treasury of a dollar and a quarter a week to persons more than 70 years old and possessing an income, less than $130 a year. This pension is not available for those who are already public dependencies and it is the estimate of the government that the pensioners will not exceed half-mil lion in number. The pensions become effective the' first of ijext year and will, according to the estimates, cost the government thirty millions a year. Premier Asquith explained to the house that the pensions would have imposed conditions for forfeiture and suspension and added that if the measure appeared to smack of social ism, it is a kind of socialism that both parties accept. The result of the operation of the measure will be watched with keen interest in all countries. Missoulian. A South Carolina paper declares that "Today the twice-defeated Bryan presents the astonishing spectacle of being unquestionably the greatest private citizen of the world." What a comfort the imagination is to the twice-defeated lining up for a third battle' under more unfavorable cir cumstances than ever. Mosquitoes have been subjugated in the Panama zone, and war will now be made by the health authorities there on rates and mice.

A former French chief Justice In Chandernagore, Jacolllot, gives an ac count of several curious performances that were displayed for his benefit by a yogi named Gcvlnda-Swami on the terrace of his own house. Being by no means credulous, Jacolllot took every precaution to prevent deception. FIdp sand was strewn on the ground In or der to make as even a surface as pos sible. Jacolliot was asked to seat him self at a table upon which were a pen cil aud paper. The fakir carefully laid a piece of wood upon the sand and announced that whatever figures Jacol liot might draw on the paper the piece of wood would transcribe nrecisolv upon the sand. The yogi stretched out his hand, and the wooden piece Imme diately copied upon the sand the most complicated and twisted figures that Jacolliot drew. When the Frenchman stopped writing the piece of wood also came to a standstill. The fakir stood at a distance against a wall, while Jacolliot held the paper and pencil In such a way that the Indian could not possibly see what he was inscribing. tiarper's v, eekly. -v Well Turned.

There was scarcely a perceptible hesitation on his part, however, for in stantly he began to whistle softly the opeuiiig bars of Bishop's glee, "When the Wind Blows."

NEW YORK, May 20.-Dr. Chas. Steinmetz, consulting engineer of the General Electric Company at Schenectady and professor of electri- al engineering at Union College, painted a doleful picture yesterday of what life' will be in the world when J the coal supply has been exhausted, and when the natural fertility of the soil has been used up and when the population has largely increased. lie thought that ultimately the people of the earth would have to look to elec tricity for heat would have to depend on it to re-fcrtilize the earth for food and clothing to keep people alive. Dr. Steinmetz spoke in the hall of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers to students and friend of the New York Electrical Trade School. His subject was "The Future of Electricity." "You who sit in this room," he said, "will see the time when there will be no more hard coal. You may see the time too when supplies of soft coal are so far removed that they wont be worth while bringing to the people; it can't last very long. And there is a possibility that some day people will wake up to the fact that some coal poisons the atmosphere. Then they may prohibit it. But it can't be a very great- while before we must seek for means other than coal for keeping warm. Wood has long since been dis carded as coal must be. What next? "It seems to me that our best hope is electricity. But we must have power for that. With coal out of the question where is the power to come from? The solution of the problem seems to be our natural water power, of which we use so very little now." Try JELL-O, the dainty, appetli ing economical dessert.

Mr. Donnerberg came to Astoria and opened a small place at 110 Eleventh street, confining himself largely .to repairing watches, and carrying a small stock of jewelry and watches.

The following messages passed by wireless between Mayor Herman Wise and Admiral Sperry during the trip: i "Mayor Herman Wise Will pass light vessel at 12:30 "SPERRY." "Admiral Sperry Will it be prac ticable for yourself and staff to board the Roanoke. Several hundred good Americans would be delighted to meet you. WISE." "Mayor Wise Many thanks for re quests. Impracticable to board the Roanoke today. SPERRY." "Admiral Sperry This is a glor ious spectacle. God bless the United States Navy. Good-bye. WISE." "Mayor Wise Many thanks for kind message, which is highly appre ciated. SPERRY." The transmission of these courte- j sies ended the contact of the visiting liner with the fleet and she detached herself for the home run which she made to the Callender dock by 3 o'clock, and then went on to the me tropolis on her usual course of busi ness. But it may be said in passing that the excursion of the Roanoke was a complete and appreciated success.

HISTORY OF SPERRY IN BRIEF spare, and his walk, when he later went on deck with us, possessed the springy alertness of one who had spent his life on the ladders of battle ships. "The other time when I was otf duty," continued the Admiral, "was on the China station some years ago, when I was commander of the New Orleans. One day I contracted a se vere cold and, having a spry young executive officer, I took to my bed for two days and downed the cold. With those two' exceptions 1 have never missed a day's duty in my life." He then became reminiscent and gave a glimpse of what a vigorous, successful naval officers must do for half a century if he wishes to attain supreme command. "I have been forty-six years in the service," said he. "Man and boy. That takes in the time from when I entered the naval academy to now. In that forty-six years, including a month's vacation each of my four years in the academy, I have had leave amounting to one year and ten months; the remaining forty-four years and two months I have been every day on duty. Since 1871 I have had six weeks' leave, which was spent with my wife on our honeymoon in Savannah. "So 1 think you arc safe in denying absolutely that rumor about my ser ious illness." "When were you in Australia last?" "In '69 on the old Kearsarge, the original Kearsarge, the one that fin ished the Alabama, original of the ship I am now on. I was an ensign then; the captain was Jim Thornton, who had been the executive officer on the day they whipped Semnies and the celebrated Confederate cruiser. It was Thornton's idea of lowering the anchor chains over the side and cov ering them with canvas painted to look like the hull that saved the Kcar- sarge's boilers. That was a bully cruise. We youngsters loved that life, roaming through the South Seas, and it will be a great delight for me to go over it again with so magnificent a fleet as this." What Australian ports will you take in?" "Of course, I can't say what Ihe navv department will order, but it will likely be Sydney first, and then Melbourne. Though, if we want to go from Honolulu without stopping to coal in either the Samoan group or the Fijis we had better go to Auck land, a run that could be made direct from Honolulu without a stop." "Will you go inside the Barrier Reefs?" "It is hardly likely. We would have to take pilots then, and you know the navy is not partial to pilots. We like to do our own navigating.

"Now that it has cen announced that the fleet will go to Japan I think I would unhesitatingly answer, 'The Inland Sea.' That is, to my mind, the most difficult well-worn waterway in the world; certainly far more difficult than the Straits of Magellan. Aside from that, our course from San Fran cisco to -New York is comparatively easy. 1 "How will you feel in going to Japan?"' "Greatly delighted, in many ways.

Motor Fails Them u. Yesterday morning a party of yOtirtg gentlemen of this city undertook to io a pleasant bit of excursioning on their own nook, and left for the bar and the open ca in a handsome motor boat belonging to one of the quin tette that manner her, with the idea of meeting the American battleships and seeing them from their own especial 1 vantage. When the boat reached the crest of the bar the gas engine subsided with its usual sud denness and utter inappropriatencss, and left the plucky group not exactly "high and dry" but in plain peril of becoming low and voct. A couple of fishing boats nearby went to their as sistance and tried to tow them back into safe waters, and did all tbey could to accomplish the service; but it took the prompt and powerful aid of theCape Disappointment life savers to remedy the situation, and the dar ing voyage were hauled in under the lea of Fort Canby, where they repair ed the engine.

NEW YORK, May 20.-A new financing of the Chicago Subway Co. has been made public here in a circu lar proposing a 20-year issue of 5 per cent first lien bonds to be dated June 1, 1908, redeemable at 103". Provision is made for subsequent issues bearing a lower rate of interest and maturing later than June 1, 1908. The Chicago Subway Co. in which E. H. Harriman and the Armor are largely interested in, comprises the Illinois Terminal Co. and the Chi cago Warehouse Terminal Co. It i proposed to exchange the new bonds for the bonds of the Illinois Tunnel Co., which were issued De cember 1, 1903, bond for bond, and the coupon on this issue due June I will be purchased at par for cash. A release from the lien of the Tun nel Company mortgage is provided for as i also the sale, lease or other disposition. The circular states that the controlling interest plans to ex tend the loan already made and to advance $1,000,000 more for construc tion and equipment. In Chicago, the Central Trust Company and the Har ris Trust Savings Bank have been appointed registrar of stock and hold ers of tunnel bonds in New York are invited to deposit them with the United States Mortgage Trust Company on or before July 1.

He has risen slowly, care fully, through neither the heights of fame nor the depressions of obscurity, through every grade of the service, until he is inclined to leave details to others and to permit the tide of cir cumstance and power to lead him on its mellow way, exemplar of the fin ished and subtle efficiency of a later day.

THE MORNING ASTORIAN, ASTORIA, OREGON. TIIfTHSDAY, MAY 21,1008 11 1 I Fruit and Flowers I PEACH GROWING. 6oms Points on Spraying, Trimming and Grubbing For Borers. Before the peach buds start In the spring a spraying with the bordeaux r copper sulphate mixture for fungi must be given; then Immediately aft r the petals fall the bordeadx-parls green mixture Is used as an Insecticide. Additional benefit Is derived from suc cessive applications of the same at in tervals of ten days or two weeks. Peach trees must be grubbed for bor ers In the spring and again in the fall. Trimming is never to be omitted. It Involves the shearing out of a multi tude of last year's shoots and the cut ting back oue-thlrd or more of all the remaining growth, aiming ever at a low, open, symmetrical head. After the trees have arrived at bearing age the trimming should be done late in May or early June to facilitate the formation of fruit buds due at this time. Clean cultivation, followed by the cover crop, as employed the first season, Is practiced ever afterward. Crops In ths Orchard. While for the first year or two hoed I crops may be raised in the peach or chard, they are no advantage to the trees. Thinning is in order before the pit develops. Fruits should be left aot closer than eight to ten inches apart High, dry ground Is selected for a peach orchard. A southern exposure Is liable to hasten the swelling of buds in the warm days of early spring, only to be blighted by following low temperature. Consequently a north ern slope, on which growth Is retard ed, less frequently proves disappoint ing. Trees attacked by incurable dis eases like yellows or little peach must promptly be dug up and burned, root and branch, to prevent further infec tion. In our section of Michigan the fol lowing varieties In the order of ma turing their fruit constitute the cream of the multitudinous list offered by the various nurserymen: Davidson or early Michigan, Triumph or Wark, En gel's Mammoth, Kalamazoo, Elberta, Crosby, New Prolific, Engel's Improv ed Chile, Markham Chile, Banner, Gold Drop and Salway.

Plie Ruin of a Burne-Jnes and the Mending of a 'Turner. A very curious history Is that of Burne-Jones favorite picture, "Love Among the IUiIus," writes. M. II. Spiel mann in the London Graphic. The orig inal picture was In water color and was sent to Paris by a firm of art pub lishers for reproduction and iu that city forwarded -to their photographic studios in the suburbs. The picture unhappily preceded the letter of In struetions regarding It warning the (luotographer of the medium In which it was painted, so that Immediately on its arrival it was brushed over with white of egg to bring out the colors for photographlng-an excellent proce dure in the case of oil pictures, harm less and very efficacious. But as to ttio Burne-Jones picture, Love was very soon among his own ruins, for every swish of the brush brought off the final touches and left a mere smeared ground. Sir Edward Burne-Jones was heartbroken at the loss of a work on which his reputation, he considered, would In great measure rest and on which be had spent many months of patient toil and the very perfection of his execution la the realization of one of the most poetic conceptions that had sprung from his fanciful Imagination. "Love Among the Ruins" was paint ed during the years 1870-3. In October, 1893, it was destroyed, and by the fol lowing year the oil version was finish ed, but was scarcely a consolation to the artist for the loss of his first and more spontaneous work. Incidents of this sort are happily not of frequent occurrence, but one case has come within my knowledge which has never, I believe, been recorded. A wealthy connoisseur,- with a roomful of beautiful Turner drawings, was in the habit of Instructing a firm well known as honorable picture dealers to overhaul his drawings, but his Turners had not for some time been touched, and the glasses had become much dark ened with dust. On his leaving town the senior member of the firm went to his bouse and brought away the pre cious drawings and, carrying them Into the room behind the shop, took the first drawing out of its frame and mount preparatory to dusting it and laid it on the table. Being suddenly called into the shop by a customer, he covered it with a sheet of Whatman paper and left It His brother entered from the street and passed into the pri vate room. A moment later the other followed and found him, knife in band, cutting a mount on the top of the Tur ner. With a cry, he rushed to the paper and lifted it, and there the horrified brothers found 'Uie 2,000 guinea draw tag cut into two pieces. What was to be done? To a-ike a clean breast of It was apparently out of the question, so it was determi-ied to call in the clever artist and repairer attached to the firm, and he Joined the pieces and remounted the drawing, nnd down where the ver tical cut was he boldly painted in a tree! The picture was in due course taken back avd rehung In time for the owner's retufa. A couple of days later came an urgei.t letter calling the dealer to the house. "Look at this drawing," said the collector. "What does it mean? There's a tree here. 1 never saw that tree before!" "No more did I," quietly replied the dealer. "I told you that you would hardlt recognize the drawings when the gl.:-ses had been cleaned in side and out. Why, you could hardly see them!" The owner, though still astonished, excepted the explanation and to this Jay has probably never guessed the 4 ruth. The dealer told the story himself shortly before his death.

Japanese 4n not nn easy language even for the native born subject of th mikado, but It Is very ditflcult of ac quirement by tho westerner. Give Hol land In his book, "Old aud New Ja pan," d-s not give foreigners any encourngi'.nent that they will ever be able really to icani tho language. It takes n .litpnncso child seven years, It Is said, to learn the essential parts of the Japaueso ulphabet. To use a Japa nese dictionary, Mr. Holland says, one must he familiar with uo fewer than 214 signs, which may bo said to serve the same purporo as initial letters lu American dictionaries. Then after one has tracked dowu In ono of these 211 signs some part of the character for which he la about to undertake au ex ploration he still has a veritable north pole hunt ahead of him. The pompous first pcrsoual pronoun is avoided whenever It Is possible In speaking Japanese. If It must be used It Is introduced 'casually, but generally the abstract mum "selfishness" serves In Its stead. 1'or example, a Japanese would not say "I don't drink wine," but "Wine Con't drink," or. If this Is not clear enough, "Selfishness wine don't drink." Reference to one's own possessions must be depreciatory. Thus If a man wishes to point out his own residence he says, "Thnt miserable house," which, of course, could refer to no other than bis own. On the oth er hand, "That beautiful house" would easily Identify the house as belonging to some oue else. Moreover, nny one who wishes to learn Japanese must be prepared to learn two languages, the written and the spoken. The one differs so ma terially from the other that if a Japa nese Is reading a book or newspaper and wishes to do so aloud It becomes necessary Tor him to translate the written words Into the colloquial. To be able to read auy of the higher class Japanese newspapers, Mr. Holland says, It Is necessary to master at least from 2.5PO to ".000 Ideographs. He Held on to His Knife. On the a'fternoou of June 1, 1S72. an old painter named William McCul lough while painting the bridge above the falls between the first and second Sister islands fell into the rapids. In stantly be was swept furiously toward the cataract, but whirled Into lesser waves, so that be struck against and seized a rock not far above the brink. Hundreds quickly gathered on the shore and watched, air eager to help, but Ignorant what to do. Among them was Thomas Conroy, who secured a coll of rope, fastened one end to a tree on shore and with the other end In his hand waded out as far as be could and occasionally swam, the wa ter being from eighteen inches to six feet deep. He aimed far up stream to allow for the power of the current and at last with great difficulty reached tho unfortunate painter and bound him to himself with the rope. They were swept off their feet several tunes on the way back to shore, but the rope had been firmly fastened, and they finally landed safely. When they reached shore It was found that Mc- Cullough still clutched his putty knife firmly in his hand, having held It dnr rag the three hours he had been on the brink of the fails. Dublin Bootblacks, 1780. Among the populace of Dublin In 17S0 tho shoeblacks were a numerous and formidable body. The polish they used was lampblack and eggs, for which they purchased all that were rot ten in the markets. Their implements consisted of a three legged stool, a bas ket containing a blunt knife called a spud, a painter's brush and an old wig. A gentleman usually went out In the morning with dirty boots or shoes, sure to find a shoeblack sitting on bis stool at the corner of the street The gentleman put his foot in the lap of the shoeblack without ceremony, and the artist scraped It with his spud, wiped it with his wig and then laid on his composition as thick as black paint with his painter's brush. The stuff dried with a rich polish, requiring no friction and little inferior to the elab orated modern fluids, save only the In tolerable odors exhaled from eggs in a high state of putridity, which filled any house which was entered before the composition was quite dry and sometimes even tainted tho air of fash ionable drawing rooms. Polishing shoes, we should mention, was at this time a refinement almost confined to cities, people In the country using grease.

Stimpson, of Willamantic, Conn., who, after almost losing hope of re covery, on account of the failure of so many remedies, finally tried Foley's Kidney Coure, which he says was just the thing" for him, as four bottles cured him completely.

PHONES-711 AND 3871 BRANCH PHONE-713 I MCK TO THE LAND James J. Hill Draws a Lesson From Governor's Convention THE IDEA 18 A GOOD THING Neither the First Meeting Nor the Second, Third and Fourth Will Show Results Which the Public Mind Will be Able to Grasp. NEW YORK, May 20.-That the recent conference of governdrs was a good thing and should be made an annual event is the opinion of James J. Hill, prsident of the board of direc tors of the Great Northern Railroad "who was one of the special guests in Tited by President Roosevelt to ad dress the meeting at Washington. The idea behind that conference," Ur. Hill said, "is a big thing. There are persons no doubt who feel and treat it cynically but they are wrong. Everything has to have a beginning, and it is easy enough to be cynical. In an annual convention of the gov ernors of states of this land I see an institution which can be nurtured and built into one of the great forces of the nation. "Neither the first meeting nor the second, nor the third, nor the fourth, will show results which the public mind will be able to grasp but I should say that after the expiration of the formative period big things will be realized. If, as it is generally sairf, this nation has reached a pass should occasion the gravest apprehension, it is about time that we began to put our louse in order. I do not know of a betted way to go about it than through the permanent establishment of an annual gubernatorial conference or convention. "But I want to say right here that I lelieve Washington should never be selected as the place for another meet ing of the kind. "The atmosphere of the capital is essentially political. You must keep politics out of this institution. I think a city like Springfield, 111., would be an ideal place. Then thercj are the large university and college towns. The place chosen should be where big agriculture experiments ar being car ried on. There you have object les ions to hand lessons which are es sentialfor our redemption is to come from the soil and in no other way. "It is all very well to hold conven tions and prepare papers and talk, tut we might as well stay at home if cut papers, our talk and our purposes mean nothing. At the recent confer ence talkers were limited to twenty minutes, and to illustrate what I have just said, I want to mention the case of a man from Chicago who got up and used 13 minutes of his time telling as that if the world kept going around as it has been doing for so long, that at the entl of ten thousand years it -rill have sprung a foot through ero sion. ''What I hope to see is the people looking ahead and planning for a couple of generations. That will be far enough to get them into the habit f thinking and those who come after will inherit the ideas and purposes of conservation and carry them along ior their allotted time. We must go lack to the land. There is no other tray for us." DENVER CONVENTION When tTje doctor Is called he asks: "Hop are the bowek?" They are gen rHy wrong.

Finishing Touches Being Put On the Auditorium ALL HEADQUARTERS SECURED Those in Charge of the Convention Say the Requests For Seats Are Twice as Many as For Any Previous Convention. DENVER, May 20. Preparations for the national democratic conven tion have been practically completed. Work on the new. Auditorium has been hurried until nothing remains to be done but to place the seats in position. As an indication of what the attendance will be the unusual de mand for seats at the convention is significant. Those in charge, of the convention for the national commit tee say that the requests for seats are easily twice as numerous as at any convention the democratic party has ever held. At the headquarters of the sub committee of the National Demo cratic committee which is in charge of Former Governor Osborne, of Wyoming, the hardest work of the convention preparations has been dis posed of. All the delegations so far selected by the various states have been provided with headquarters, and the printing of tickets and badges has been attended to. A special souvenir badge has been prepared for the members of the national committee, and there will also be a special badge for delegates. The arrangements for doorkeepers and guests in the auditorium have not been fully made. This work will be more comprehensive than usual this year. Admission tickets to the general public will provide for seats in cer tain specified sections to which the ticket holders will be directed by ushers. In this manner the confu sion and noise occasioned by a large crwod pressing toward the most de sirable seats will be eliminated. It is estimated that each session of" the convention 1400 people will be pro vided with seats. The members of the national committee will hold a meet ing in Denver in the latter part of June and decide upon the temporary chairman. The decorations for the national convention will be the most elaborate that have ever been attempt ed in Denver. Electrical effects will be conspicuous in the decorations and flags and bunting will be used in a lavish manner.

Justice O'Gorman Announced That the Trial Must be Concluded at To morrow's Session no Matter How Late the' Sitting of the Court NEW YORK, May 20. rhysicnlly so weak he practically had to be car ried in and out of the court room, United States Senator Piatt was at times a spirited witness today when he appeared, to testify in his own be half in Mac C. Wood's suit for an ab solute divorce from him. His denial of all the charges brought by Miss. Wood was emphatic, and when prod ded too hard by the plaintiff's coun sel, the aged senator proved himself capable of a vigbrous defense. While the defendant in the action was in the court-room much of the day, Miss Wood, the plaintiff, did not attend the trial. The prosecution of the case for the defense aside from Piatt's own testimony, was marked by a sharp attack on the authenticity of the marriage certificate which Miss Wood offered in evidence to sup port her conversion of her matrimon ial contract with the Senator. This was followed by an effort to show that the letter in which Senator Piatt is said to have admitted his marriage to Miss Wood was written over his signature on a blank sheet of paper to which he had previously affixed his autograph on the request of two women applicants for it while he wa staying at the Hotel Arlington in this city in 1906. Plat himself in his tes timony categorically denied that he ever married or promised to marry the plaintiff ,and repudiated the sig nature purporting to be his on the marriage certificate and the genuine ness of several letters which Miss Wood testified came to her from him. At the conclusion of the afternoon session Justice O'Gorman announced that the trial must conclude at tomor row's session no matter how late the sitting of the court that might involve.
