Nothing in It
Periodically a wail from some cheap white man who seeks notoriety by opposing the Negro comes forth; this time from some obscure would-be statesman in Oregon who is going to introduce a bill to prohibit Negroes from wearing the insignia of the fraternity to which they belong, viz: The I. B. O. of E. of The World. It would be just as reasonable a proposition to say we are going to legislate so that the Negroes cannot have the name of the Deity written upon their literature emanating from the various branches of the Church of God. This matter has gone the bounds of the Courts of New York, the decision of the New York Supreme Court being a signal victory for the Colored Elks. They are infringing in no way on the rights and precepts of the B.P. O. of E., they are the I. B. P.O. of the W., different in name most assuredly. As to the ritual and how they came into possession of it, we are not prepared to say, but we are reliably informed that they came by it legitimately, and are entirely within their rights.
When it comes to fraternal organizations there is where the colored brother shines, he wants the best of everything, and in this respect has always been known to get it. And if the Elks is an organization having for its object the spreading abroad of brotherly love, charity, and also, occasionally with pomp and splendor come out in public. There is no way to keep the Colored brother from butting in. It is so all along the line. Prince Hall brought Masonry from England and initiated the dusky brother into the mysteries thereof. The only legally constituted Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows in this Country, we are informed, is the G.U.O. of O.F., a colored organization, and the Knights of Pythias come regularly constituted, including North America, South America and Asia as well; so after all there is nothing in the spasmodic efforts of those who seek notoriety in opposing his fraternal ambition. We apprehend that the coming assembly will enact no black laws on the the statute books at the behest of the followers of Tillman, Vardaman, Jeff Davis and, on the contrary, will applaud all those who will emulate the principles of so grand and lofty an organization as the Elks.
Pence and Foraker to the Front
Not since the days of Ingalls
have we had in the U. S. Senate
a member that might be called a
trunch friend of a struggling race.
and we often have wished for an Ingalls who would hang Ben Tillman's hide on the fence, as was the tall sycamore from the Wabash Vorhees, but now comes a gleam of hope in the persons of Senator Penrose and J. B. Foraker, who, on the very first day of the session have attempted to see that justice is done the innocent members of the three discharged companies of the 25th Infantry. We shall watch with much interest the outcome of this matter in Congress, having an abiding faith that right will yet prevail.
The discredited and defeated County Attorney of Silver Bow County attended to the duties of his office with the same spirit that his hatred and antipathy prompted him in declaring his intention to prosecute the Colored Elks for so vile a crime as wearing the insignia of their fraternity. He perhaps would not have been repudiated by the people at the polls.
SOVE TEXAN HELLHOLES
Neither the Country nor President Roosevelt has heard the last of the discharge of the colored troops. The negroes' side of the case is being prepared with great care and will be presented to the President in due form. The Democratic leaders in Congress will certainly take the matter up and make the most of it. It is estimated that, if the President had issued his famous order twenty-four hours earlier—that is to say, one day before election—at least twenty-two of the successful Republican candidates for Congress would have been defeated. In Representative Longworth's district, for instance, there are 3,000 negro voters, and Longworth's majority was only 3,200.
Assuredly there are to sides to the story. One man who has been on the spot, investigating the case at first hand avers that there was undoubtedly a conspiracy in Brownsville to get rid of the colored troops somehow,—anyhow. Old army officers who have been in command in that part of Texas characterize Brownsville and other "River" towns as little hellholes, full of dangerous criminals of almost every sort. The Brownsville shooting has had many precedents. Other presidents have had parallel incidents brought to their attention, and have given small heed to them. What especially roiled Brownsville this time was that, reversing the usual order of things in such cases, the "nigger" proved the better man of the two, and potted the Texan.
In a letter to the New York Evening Post an old officer tells of a personal experience in one of these Texan hellholes. In 1877, he says, Fort Duncan, Tex., situated at Eagle Pass, was garrisoned by a troop of the Eighth Cavalry and two companies of the Twenty-fourth Infantry (black), and was commanded by the late General Shafter, then Lieut.-Colonel of the Twenty-fourth. Eagle Pass was a tough, frontier town, and a headquarters for cattle thieves, smugglers, gamblers, desperadoes, and the riffraff of the Mexican border. A popular pastime of its vivacious burghers was the insulting and assaulting of soldiers from the garrison. One day a trooper was openly and coarsely insulted by a deputy sheriff, and a gang of disreputable followers. The trooper knocked the deputy sheriff down, and would have been murdered for it had not some armed soldiers come along and protected him. The deputy sheriff threatened to shoot the trooper at sight. The trooper, with more spunk than prudence, ran to the Fort, got a carbine and a belt full of ammunition, and returned. He was fired upon from a dark corner

KEEP AT CONGRESS TILL DISABILITIES ARE REMOVED
Let us hammer at the doors of Congress with that same relentless persistency with which the friend of the Southern generals who had fought to destroy their country hammered at Congress until their disabilities had been removed. And in the end we shall win and restore these soldiers, at least those who have not been guilty of an offense, which even at the worst, had extinguating circumstances connected with it, to their full rights and stature as American citizens.—W. M. Trotter.
and wounded, but he crawled into a ditch and literally lay low for the deputy sheriff, finally putting him out of action with a wound in the thigh. One other man he shot in the leg. No one else cared to enter the dispute, and the trooper started for the hospital, bleeding profusely. He met his comrades streaming into town, armed and angry, and the blood on his trousers maddened them. They wrecked the saloon where the trouble started; beat the proprietor into a jelly; put a number of bad men on the sick list; started a score for Mexico with balls at their heels and gave the sheriff the worst hour of his life.
When the town had been tamed General Shafter appeared on the scene, calm but profane, and rounded the soldiers up and into the garrison. The wires to Washington were hot next day, but the administration refused to get excited, and ordered the phlegmatic Shafter to investigate and report. He began by examining the wounded trooper, whom he reprimanded for bad shooting—for wounding, not killing, his man—and ended by declaring that Eagle Pass, not Fort Duncan, was to blame. The incident closed when Captain McNally and his rangers role into Eagle Pass and removed a nice bunch of scoundrels to San Antonio for such justice as Texas usually dispenses to bandits and murderers. A new sheriff came

"Dad" Bennett No More
One of the characters in and around Helena has succumbed to the Grim Reaper who in his rounds excuses no man, on Saturday, after a short illness of about two hours. To the casual observer it could be seen that for some time "Dad," as he was familiarly called by his friends and acquaintances, had been in failing health, and that, coupled with his old age, was responsible for his death.
He was well and favorably known during a residence of many years in his city, being a man who attended strcttly to his own affairs; hale and well met, he was particularly liked by the young element; always ready to pass a joke, and entered into their sports and pastimes as if he were one of them. He was best known as an uncompromising Democrat, and at no time used any hesitancy in declaring his fealty to those principles. A product of antebellum days, he had no advantages to secure even the rudiments of an education, although he could read. Years back he was a member of the Helena Police Force. At the time of his death he was a member of the R. J. Fletcher Lodge, A. F. and A M., and was buried Tues-
---
day by that Order, with Masonic honors. Peace be to his ashes.
1 h 3 President's Message
The message of President Roosevelt to Congress last Tuesday of course attracts the usual interest that all utterances of our strenuous Chief Executive usually do, along with the other questions discussed he exhaustively sets forth the evils of lynch laws and mobs, and while he at length discusses this phase, he fails to in any way suggest to Congress a remedy; it is more of a lay sermon as to the attitude that our section should be to the other; using extreme precaution so as to not offend either.

this city, and although not attended by fatal results it is deplorable. Last Friday at their residence out on Hoback St., Mr. and Mrs. Ingram became involved in an altercation in which, Mrs. Ingram claims her husband used her violently and struck her, which, as we understand, she intended to resent with a gun, the parties going to close quarters, and when the smoke of battle had cleared away James Ingram came out of it with a gunshot wound in the hand. Mrs. Ingram made it for the Police Station to have him arrested for assault, and he applied for a warrant for her for the shooting. She was arrested and released on bond to the amount of $750, W. R. Dorsey and B. F. Hooper as her bondsmen.
Mrs. Ingram is one of the leading lights of the local four hundred and the affair has created a great deal of comment.
Her friends, however, claim that she was entirely justified in the premises that her husband had outraged her, and in many ways, by his treatment of her.
The concensus of opinion is that the whole affair was based on a fit of probably unfounded jealousy on the part of Ingram.
EXCUSE FOR THE PRESIDENT, AND FLIMSY ONE
EXCUSE FOR THE PRESIDENT, AND FLIMSY ONE
So Says the Anaconda Standard In all probability the public will not regard the remarks of Secretary Taft, quoted this morning, as convincing, in their application to the Brownsville affair. Mr. Taft draws distinction between a dishonorable discharge and discharge without honor. That is technical. However there is much in the military service that is technical, so that the public will accept the distinction pointed out by Secretary Taft, to the effect that a dishonorable discharge andk d'sharge without honor are two separate and distinct things.
That, however, will not make the critics of the President's course a whit the more willing to accept the sophistry to which, later on in his comment, Secretary Taft plainly commits himself. He says that the discharge in the pending case, without honor, is "merely the ending of a contract and seperation from the service under the right reserved in the statute for the protection of the government," and that it cannot be asserted that the soldiers in the Twenty-fifth were discharged in dishonor, the list including men who, Secretary Taft himself clearly admits, may be innocent and, as well, ignorant as to who the guilty ones are.
Now, if these soldiers in the Twenty-fifth deserved discharge at all surely they deserved dishonorably discharge. Else, why were they discharged at all? The Brownsville affair involved riot and murder. Why should the Secretary of War, in an apologetic way, feel compelled to admit that the participants in it were discharged without honor, but not dishonorably? If the Secretary proves anything he proves too much; he admits that, whereas the offenders were dismissed, they were not dismissed in dishonor from the Army of the United States. The Secretary reasons in a circle. The guilty ought to have been dishonorably dismissed, if at all.
The truth seems to be that the government, with all its police and detective paraphernalia, was not able, at the drop of the hat, to find the guilty. Instead of waiting, so that a clear inquiry could be patiently pursued, the President impulsively put the whole lot out of the service, and now, by the logic of his Secretary of War, or the lack of it, the conclusion must be that the President discharged the guilty, not, technically, with dishonor, yet he discharged in dishonor, by every practical test, a number of wholly innocent men, their innocence, or at any rate, their probable innocence, being openly admitted by the President and by the Secretary of War. If, as the Secretary says, the guilty

could not be dishonorably dishonorably discharged without a trial, then, surely, there ought to have been a trial. Secretary Taft quibbles. His sophistry, issued officially, does no credit to his name and fame as a jurist. The truth seems to be that he, himself, wanted the discharge proceedings halted, that he was summarily overruled by the President, that he has since been inventing an excuse for the Executive's action, and that he has evolved a mighty lame one.
The Plaindealer Would Like to Know the Reason Why
That annually a tragedy follows a ball?
There is no scarcity of patriots to serve their Commonwealth at the coming Assembly?
There were so many inquires as to the last week's issue of this paper?
Some of the Helena merchants who receive a fair portion of the colored trade are too narrow to advertise in this medium?
Box Party No. 2 never came off, as the one last Sunday evening week?
The Autumn Leaf Club is three members shy?
A former Helenite, but who now resides in Butte is so sore at Helena?
Billy Gancy the Butte midget did not make good?
"Short" Fenter says he would like to make Helena, but he has got on too much speed?
After election polititians bob up for recognition when they were never known to turn a hand for the party's success?
Some of our readers claim they do not receive their paper, when they do?

EXCITING TIME ON CHICAGO &
ALTON IN MISSOURI.
He Was Arrested Before He Could
Leave the Train—Was Seen at Work
by Station Agent—Officers Boarded
Train and Captured Him Without
Much Resistance.
Kansas City, Nov. 27.—A lone rob-
ber, masked and armed, robbed 15 pas-
sengers on eastbound Chicago & Alton
passenger train No. 24, near Glasgow,
Mo., Monday morning about 1 o'clock.
He was arrested before he could leave
the train and was taken to Glasgow
and placed in jail
ine robbed train is kmown as the
Early Bird. It left Kansas City ot 9
o'clock Sunday and was due at Slater
at 12:27 Monday morning. At Slater
the robver, wearing a mask over his
eyes, boarded the rear car as the
train was pulling out. After tue train
had increased speed the man, revolver
in hand, entered the car and began
a systematic robbery of the passen-
gers. Fifteen of them were made to
disgorge.
Dispatcher Sees Him at Work.
‘As the train passed arough Glas-
sow, at which point it does not stop,
he man was seen at work by the sta-
Hon agent, who wired the chief dis-
pateher of the fact.
Amstrong, the next station east of
Glasgow, was notified and officers
were at the station there to meet the
train when it pulled in. No stop is
made ordinarily at Armstrong, and
the robber, evidently satisfied in the
belief that he was secure for this rea-
son, suspected no harm when that
point was reached. When the train
stopped at Armstrong on orders and
the officers boarded it, they caught the
robber.
He was taken without serious dif-
fulty, and under instructions of the
Kansas City office was taken back to
Glasgow and placed in jail there.
‘The robber is five feet five inches In
height, weighs 135 pounds and wore a
corduroy cap. He wore a mask that
covered his eyes. The robbed train
was in charge of Conductor Haywood
and is one of the fastest on the Chi-
cago & Alton. It runs through St.
Louis and Chicago.
Second Robbery of Kind.
This robbery {is an almost ex:
act duplication of that committed on
the same line on November 8, when a
lone robber, heavily masked, boarded
the rear sleeper of the eastbound Chi.
cago, Rock Islana & Pacific overland
train, which runs on the Alton traeks
and, at the point of two revolvers,
forced the Pullman conductor, @ negro
porter and a brakeman to proceed
ahead of him and awaken the passen-
gers while he robbed them.
On that occasion the robber passed
the women by, and succeeded in get-
ting but $68, which he took from the
male passengers. ‘This robber es-
caped and no definite clew was ever
learned of him, except that he was de-
scribed as young and as a man who
was “next” to his job.
Between Kansas City and Chicago
the Rock Island overland train uses
the Alton tracks. ‘ie officers believe
that the man who committed the rob-
bery last night is the same who went
through the Rock Island train.
One of the passengers robbed was

HARVARD DOWNED BY FINAL
SCORE OF 6T0 0.
it Was a Desperate Battle From Start
to Finish—Has Had Few Equals
Since Two Universities Have Met—
Yale Champions of the Country—
Other Important College Games.
New Haven, Nov. 25.—Yale’s bright
blue banners wave triumphantly over
the city, the signal of another victory
over Harvard, the final score being
6 to0. ‘The crimson went down to de-
feat in a desperate battle, which in
football strategy and spectacular plays
has had few equals since the two uni
versities have met.
To Yale passed the almost undis-
puted title of the college championship
of the country, clouded only by the
drawn no score contest with Princeton
4 week ago. A victory for the crimson
would have meant first honors beyond
juestion, for she had beaten the Carl-
isle Indians, who last week won from
Minnesota, and who also had defeated
the University of Pennsylvania, the
onquerors of the wuiversity of ee
an.
Sror this reason, if for no other, the
same on Yale field was of unprece-
jented importance and to Yale once
mere has come a victory which will
live forever in her athletic history.
It was a vicory won through football
<nowseage, superior play, almost un-
rring accuracy in developing the pos-
sibilities of the new rules and the
magnificent work of her players. The
seore of a single touchdown and goal
repeats that of last year on Soldiers’
field, and it adds to Yale's string of
victories, only twice broken since
1897.
Warvard proved a worthy foeman
Her men repeatedly shone conspicu-
ously and there were flashes of bril-
‘ancy as time and again her backs
broke through the line and her stal-
wart guard, wurr, sent the ball twist-
ing through the air on long punts.
Harvard was a true slow In execu-
ting her plays, which, as last year,
seemed to hinge on her great strength
on defense.
Yale's success lay in playing of-
tensively at the opening, driving her
plays hard and taking advantage of
every opening when her opponents
had the ball. Interference, forward
passes and on side kicks were well
developed. Not once did a Yale man
have to run down the field without aid.
As the game was nearing the close
Yale played faster and rolled the crim-
son line Into a heap time and again.
{t was only Harvard's stubborn con-
test of every inch that kept the score
at the single figures.
The teuchdown followed a sensation-
al play. Yale had the ball on Har-
vard’s 25 yard line. Jones called for
a kicking formation. Veeder dropped
back to the 34 yard line with his
hands outspread. A perfect pass from
Hookenburger sent the ball into his
hands, and Veeder like a flash started
at right angles and hurled the ball
over the heads of the Harvard men for
2 20 yard pass, to where several Yale
men, as though drawn by a magnet,
had jumped into one little knot. Up
from their midst leaped Forbes, whe
caught the ball and in an instant
placed it down on the four yard line.
Up rose the Yale hosts with cries for
a touchdown, while the crimson side
was hushed. Roome, who had replaced
Knox, was sent to smash the crimson
line. His first try gave two yards, and
next time he was shot over, with the
whole team dragging and pushing him.
That four yards showed what Yale
could do when she was hungry for the
score which was so close at hand. The
‘eking of a goal was an easy thing
tor Veeder.
‘The gridiron was framed with a
mass of humanity, in which three sides
were blue and the other crimson. The
cheering and singing, while good, fell
far short of that of previous years,
explainable only by the fact that tue
spectators did not have much time to
pay attention to the cheer leaders. Not
‘seat was vacant, and at the gate the
sale of tickets brought phenomenal
prices, one pair changing hands at
$50. The game opened under gray
skies, but was concluded in radiant
sunshine and under a canopy of blue.
‘The Harvard stands at the opening
cheered Yale and Captain Morse, and
he opposite side returned this complt-
ment. At the close of the game the
jubilant Yale host stood bareheaded
for 15 minutes in front of the Harvard

crimson, the latter responding. Yale
‘yas always cheered Harvard, but nev-

REV. DR. CRAPSEY’S BELIEF.
Refuses to Believe a Flesh and Blood
Savior Ascended Into Heaven.
Rochester, N. Y., Nov. 26.—Bowing
to the will of the church, but refusing
to make a “cowardly retraction” of
the belief which induced the church to
terminate his ministry, the Rev. Al-
gernon S. Crapsey, rector of St. An-
drew’s church of Rochester, N. Y.
Sunday renounced his ministry in the
Protestant Episcopal church, in a let-
ter to Bishop William David Walker,
of the western diocese of New York.
In this letter, the Rev. Mr. Crapsey
reaffirmed his belief that the “notion
that the origin of Jesus, the son of
man, was born without a human
father,” is without foundation in his:
tory. He also asserted that “when
I say of Jesus that he ascended into
heaven, I do not mean and can not
mean that with his physical body of
flesh, blood and bone, he floated into
space and has for 2000 years been
existing somewhere in the sky, in
that very physical body of flesh, blood
and bone. Such an existence would
seem to me not glorious, but horrible.”
Declaring that he is about to carry
the case to the free intelligence and
enlightened conscience of he world
he counsels the “hundreds of clergy:
men and thousands of laymen”in the
Protestant Episcopal church who have
reached the same conclusion as he, to
be not dismissed and stay where they
ere.

BAD BLOOD THE SOURCE OF ALL DISEASE
Every part of the body is dependent on the blood for nourishment and strength. When this life stream is flowing through the system in a state of purity and richness we are assured of perfect and uninterrupted health; because pure blood is nature's safe-guard against disease. When, however, the body is fed on low, impure or polluted blood, the system is deprived of its strength, disease germs collect, and the trouble is manifested in various ways. Pustular eruptions, pimples, rashes and the different skin affections show that the blood is in a feverish and diseased condition as a result of too much acid or the presence of some irritating humor. Sores and Ulcers are the result of morbid, unhealthy matter in the blood, and Rheumatism, Catarrh, Scrofula, Contagious Blood Poison, etc., are all deep-seated blood disorders that will continue to grow worse as long as the poison remains. These impurities and poisons find their way into the blood in various ways. Often a sluggish, inactive condition of the system, and torpid state of the avenues of bodily waste, leaves the refuse and waste matters to sour and form uric and other acids, which are taken up by the blood and distributed throughout the circulation. Coming in contact with contagious diseases is another cause for the poisoning of the blood; we also breathe the germs and microbes of Malaria into our lungs, and when these get into the blood in sufficient quantity it becomes a carrier of disease instead of health. Some are so unfortunate as to inherit bad blood, perhaps the dregs of some old constitutional disease of ancestors is handed down to them and they are constantly annoyed and troubled with it. Bad blood is the source of all disease, and until this vital fluid is cleansed and purified the body is sure to suffer in some way. For blood troubles of any character S. S.

Kansas City, Nov. 27.—In an attempt to hold up and rob J. Frank Emery, proprietor of the Kentucky hotel in Kansas City, Kan., Emery was shot and killed and Lee Simons, a negro porter, was shot in the shoulder and slightly wounded. Charles Rumble, aged 32, an iron molder from Independence, Mo., one of the would-be robbers, was shot in the cheek by officers, who pursued him and Sam Hutton, a negro, down Minnesota avenue, the principal street in the city. Rumble's wound is not serious. Both Rumble and Hutton were arrested Hutton's home is in Kansas City, Kan
Rumble and Hutton were intoxicated. They entered the Kentucky house and walking over to the desk told Emery to hand over his money No guests were in the lobby at the time. Emery told them to get out that he had no money. The men staggered from the desk apparently to make their departure. When they reached the door, however, Rumble braced himself against the negro and with a shaky hand fired two shots at the hotel proprietor. Guests rushed into the lebby and found Emery dead lying across the hotel register, which was spread open on the clerk's desk One bullet from Rumble's revolver went wild. The second had pierced Emery's chest, just below the heart causing almost instant death.
A guest poked his head out of the door of his room, 20 feet down the corridor from the office. Quick as a flash Rumble fired two shots in his direction. The guest retreated to his room and Hutton fled.

THEIR PREVENTION AND CURE
November is the month of falling temperatures. Over all the temperate regions the hot weather has passed and the first rigors of winter have appeared. As the great bulk of civilized nations is located in the temperate zones, the
effect of changing seasons is a question of the highest importance. When the weath-
The Human System Must Adjust Itself to Changing Temperatures. effect of changing seasons is a question of the highest importance. When the weather begins to change from warm to cold, when cool nights succeed hot nights, when clear, cold days follow hot, salty days, the human body must adjust itself to this changed condition or perish.
The perspiration incident to warm weather has been checked. This detains within the system poisonous materials which have heretofore found escape through the perspiration.
Most of the poisonous materials retained in the system by the checked perspiration find their way out of the body, if at all, through the kidneys. This throws upon the kidneys extra labor. They become charged and overloaded with the poisonous excretory materials. This has a tendency to inflame the kidneys, producing functional diseases of the kidneys and sometimes Bright's disease.
Peruna acts upon the skin by stimulating the emunory glands and ducts, thus preventing the detention of poisonous materials which should pass out. Peruna invigorates the kidneys and encourages them to fulfill their function in spite of the chills and dicsouragements of cold weather.
Peruna is a combination of well tried harmless remedies that have stood the
test of time. Many of these remedies have been used by doctors and by the people in Europe and America for a hundred years. Peruna has been used by Dr. Hartman in his private practice for many years with notable results. Its efficacy has been proven by decades of use by thousands of people and has been substantiated over and over by many thousands of homes.
FRENCH SHIP BURNS
TORPEDO BOAT ALGECIRAS AT TOULON DESTROYED.
There Was 500 Men Aboard When Fire Broke Out—Five Are Known to Have Perished—Garrison Is Called Out to Render Assistance and Warships Launch Many Boats.
Toulon, France, Nov. 26.—The torpedo ship Algeciras, stationed in this harbor, was totally destroyed by fire at a late hour this evening. There were 500 men on board when the fire broke out, but it is believed that most of them were saved.
The Algeciras was a ship of the line and for a number of years past she had been doing duty as a harbor vessel and employed as a torpedo training ship. She was of 5047 tons displacement and was built in 1855.
Great Alarm in the City.
The burning of the school ship created the greatest alarm throughout the city. News of the fire was first conveyed at about 11 o clock by the firing of a cannon in the harbor. The people hurriedly left the cafes and theaters and rushed to the docks, whence they could see the Algeciras, a mass of flame in the harbor. The burning vessel stood out brilliantly in the encircling darkness and the glare of the flames lighted up the other shipping and the coast and wharves.
There was terrible anxiety concerning the fate of the 500 men on board until the authorities announced that everybody had been taken off in boats and saved, with the exception of three. Those men did not answer the roll call and it is presumed they were burned to death.
Assistance in Plenty.
The entire garrison here was called out to render assistance and the crews of the warships of this division hurriedly launched their boats to go to the rescue of their comrades, who were on board the Algeciras for purposes of instruction. Tugboats and fireboats, as well as several steamers lying in port, slipped their anchors and likewise went out to help.
As soon as the men had been taken off the flaming vessel the efforts of the authorities were directed to safeguard the other ships anchored in the vicinity of the Algeciras, including the new battleship Patrie and the torpedo gunboat La Hore. These two warships were towed to places of safety.
The authorities came rapidly to the conclusion that the Algeciras was doomed, and she was left to burn herself out.
The discipline maintained on board the Algeciras was excellent. A majority of the men were cool and collected. The small boats of the Algeciras were launched, filled with men and rowed away, while those who could not leave in this manner awaited the arrival of their rescuers. A few of them, however, were forced by the flames to jump overboard and swim away. Six torpedoes on board the school ship exploded while the men were leaving the vessel. There was much fear during the

He had been in the habit of eating radishes and other truck just as it came from the garden and it is supposed one of the radishes contained the bacilli of a tapeworm, which in some manner lodged in the eye.
Remember that an easy chair is an essential part of the strenuous life.

height of the fire that a torpedo magazine on shore would be ignited, but this was prevented by deluging the magazine with heavy streams of water from powerful fireboats. It is not known whether the fire originated from an explosion of powder or broke out among the stores on board. The Algeciras has been used as a school ship since 1894.
OUR PRESIDENT HAS RETURNED
Washington, Nov. 26 — Completing a remarkable trip to Panama, during which he traveled several thousand miles by steamer, when he visted not only the istmus but Porto Rico as well, voicing his enjoyment of the entire trip, President Roosevelt returned to Washington Monday night. The trip up the Potomac on the converted yacht Mayflower, to which he and his party were transferred from the Louisiana at Piney Point in the afternoon, was made without special incident.
The president landed within 10 minutes after the arrival of the Mayflower. He stated that he had a delightful trip and was feeling fine.
Speaking of his trip the president said:
"We have had a very pleasant and very enjoyable time, and I am deeply impressed with the United States navy as well as with Panama and Porto Rico."
An unfortunate incident occurred in the lower Potomac in connection with the president's trip up the river. The yacht Oneida, in the service of the Ditsrict of Columbia, naval militia, and on which were the commanding officers and others of the militia, had dropped down the Potomac to Piney Point to welcome the president, and was returning, when a gasoline boat capsized and Melvin E. Cleveland, 19 years of age, of this city, boatswain's mate, was drowned. His body had not been recovered at last accounts.
A Well Known Remedy.
One of the oldest, safest and most favorably known remedies in the world today is Brandreth's Pills—a blood purifier and laxative. Being purely vegetable they can be used by old or young with perfect safety and while other remedies require increased doses and finally cease acting altogether, with Brandreth's Pills the same dose always has the same effect no matter how long they are taken. One or two pills taken each night for a while is the best thing known for any one troubled with constipation, indigestion, dispelsia or any trouble arising from an impure state of the blood.
Brandreth's Pills have been in use for over a century and are sold in every drug and medicine store, plain or sugar-coated.
Valuable Jewelry Is Stolen.
The police of Pittsburgh have been asked by the Philadelphia officers to look for jewelry valued at from $50,000 to $75,000, which was stolen from the residence of Henry Barnett, head of a large file works in Philadelphia. According to the reports, the robbery was highly sensational. The list of plunder includes about 40 pieces, among them a large brooch containing 25 diamonds and valued at $15,000.
"You're a peach," he cried, enthusiastically.
"H'm! Miss Chellus seems to think so, too," replied the pretty girl. "I overheard her say I looked well preserved."
"Well, well, wouldn't that jar you?" —Philadelphia Press.
To Make Harness Last Longer.
A little economy, which sometimes means a good many dollars to a man, is the proper care of harness, carriage-tops, etc. Leather in use is expedient, but leather becomes too hard, intlastic, and unable to stand strain. Then, very likely at the most unfortunate moment, a break occurs, and precious time and money are lost. This is easily preventable, though it is a part of the owner. Every one owning horses should be supplied with a good leather preservative, and a good axle oil. These two things are necessary to the largest economical use of a working outfit, or a pleasurable one.
Observation has shown that no oil penetrates leather so deeply, and resists the drying effects of sun and wind so well as Eureka Horn Oil. Neaffoot and some other inferior oils sometimes used, easily become rancid, or because of containing acid, hurt the leather. Stable men and others have tended to object to its oil. When barness is given an occasional dressing of this oil, and wagon spindles greased with Boston Oil, a very large reduction is made in the necessary repair bills. Boston Oil, by its nature, is very much superior to Castor Oil. It has splendid lasting qualities, will not gum or corrode, and is more economical in every way. People who are after economy in stable management will do well to ask for these oils.
Tobacco pipes made from calabash have come into general use in South Africa. The calabash colors like meerscham, and will take a high polish. It is said to give a special softness of flavor that pipes of no other material offer.

During a conference with the chiefs and 2000 tribesmen of Sekukuniland, Sir Godfrey Lagden, the chief native commissioner of the Transvaal, cited as evidence of the government's good intentions toward the black population the fact that whereas formerly a native paid $10 for each wife, the cost was now only $3.25. The chiefs expressed their loyalty to King Edward.

On Friday evening, Dec.31st the home of Mr. and Mrs. N. Ford was the brilliant scene of a seven-course Dinner given by Mr. R. Merrill to a party of young friends. During the Dinner small envelopes were passed around to the ladies containing cards on which were certain numbers. Mr. Merrill explaining that a favor would be given the lady holding the lucky number.
The fortunate possessor was Miss Helen Anderson, who received from the host a handsome silver belt buckle: The table was beautifully laid, the decorations consisting of pink chrysanthemums and sililax. The favors were pink chrysanthemums. All who were present no doubt heartily applauded the sentiment of the toast offered Mr. Merrill by Mrs. J.
