TIE GOVERNMENT SHOULD OWN THE
SHIP CANALS.

To the Editor Of THE ADVOCATE:
Allow me to urge you to exert your
vast influence in opposition to the Mica
ragua canal thieving scheme. If the
people do not give Congress to understand
that they will not logger submit TO being
robbed by such villsinUus schemes, am
very much afraid the bill will pass in
some shape. Why not urge our 29d of
February conference to declare In favor
Of national system Of ship canals for
our own country? Such system as We
might readily lnaugurate-H our 30
called statesmen were not too much oC-
cupied in devisiDg ways Of enriching the
few at the expense Of the many-would
be of untold value to our country at this
time, bringing sunshine and gladnesS into
homes now darkened by the gaunt
shadows of poverty.
To give you an idea of what I propose,
let us imagine q system of ship canals
traverslng the United States. Let one
starting from Lake Michigan or Lake
Superior penetrate the country
to the westward as Far north as
might be found practicable. After cross
ing the Missouri river bending south
ward 1t would carry life and hoEe to the
dwellers In the great American desert.
II might extend down into Texas,
and perhaps In time tunnel the Rockies
and reach California. Another main
canal connect Lake Erie with the Ohio
river. The Ohio and Potomac Gas Wash
ington hoped to do). So che Tennessee
and Cumberland rivers might be con-
nected with the rivers Of Georgia, Ala
bsma and Mississippi. So with main
branches leaving the "Father Of Waters"
might penetrate southeastward and
southwestward, and while serving as
canals for the transport Of vessels, would
serve to carry eff the surplus water in
times Of foods, and thus prevent over
flows. These canals would serve the
the people in many different ways.
Flrst-As public highways for the
transport of products, etc.
SecOnd-As irrlgating canals and feed
ers to navigable rivers in low water.
Third-As overflow channels through
which the surplus water of the several
river valleys might be diverted into other
rivers, thus preventinting disastrous
floods. For instance, should the Mlssis-
sippi river reach the danger line, the
surplus water might be drawn through
the main canals southwestward into the
Arkansas, Red or Colorado dvers, or In
cases of extreme need into the Rio
Grande. So with the other rivers. II
the Ohio should again threaten death
and destruction as it so often does, let
the flood gates open and the surplus
water pass harmlessly down the Potomac,
or IL necessary down the James, or still
farther south, as experience may prove
expedient.
In connection with the canals there
should also be national system Of reser-
voirs for the storage of water.
have no doubt but that the time will
come when our blessed America will be
fed by system as here outlined, render
Ing them vsvigable at all times, and q
blessing. to our people In countless ways.
As to the cost Let Congress provide
for the employment Of every idle man
who wants work on these public works

AN EMPRESS ROBBERY.

Ro',:pors Sacsirel the Money
Guthrie, Oklahoma, June "Details of the
robbery last night of the Wclls-Fargo express
ear Of the Sante Fe passenger train make
story of uneXampled outlawry on the part Of
bandits and brave resistance the part of
the custodians of the express company's prop
erty.
The robbers were at work the best part of
an hour attempting to ntlmidate the express
messengers into submission and during all
that time the messengers were risking their
lives In defense of the oOmpany's property.
The robbery was an unique one in the history
of Indian Territory outlawry. In the first
place the robbers got everything In sght.
Again, during the battle between the mes
seIS1rs and bandits in which nearly 200 shots
Vssc fired, not Il man wounded. Then
again, the robbers were of Gentlemanly APP
pearance and department in their relations
with the tranmen, who not pressed
into their service, and with the passengers
several of whom cOnverscd with the robbers
leader. Finally the robbery was doubtless
committed by the notorious Dalton gang, for
whom large rewards are still standing and
who were even then being tracked by a detec-
tive and his posse, who were behind them
more than a days journey on horseback.
Messenger Nhttlessey had hidden his money
and watch and the robbers got nothing from
him. The robbers are described by several
of the passengers who talked with them,
Icing we'll dressed and of gentlemanly APP
pearanCe and bearing. This is especially true
of the leader who apolog2cd to the engineer
for rough remark made by one of his crowd
and promised him that 1t should not occur
again The leader, in conversation with
passenger asked for some smoking tobacco
Tie passenger reached into his coat tail
pocket for it when the robber told him if it
was in his hip pocket he had better not at
tempt to get 1t.
The amount secured by the robbers is I'M
known. as the express company has made no
statement. After the robbery the men
mounted their horses and rode Off to the
southwest. The Daltons are charged with
the crime. Judging from the description
given of the robbers by those who
0uainted with the Datons, it was undoubt-
edly the notorious gang. A detective and
posse had been on the latters track for some
time only a day ago, on" Of the gang
bought thirteen cartridges at oklahoma, and
afterwards escaped the vigilence of his pur-
suers. strong posse was organized here
late last night and went up to the scene of
the robbery on q freight train. 1t is thought
the robbers can be easily tracked on account
of the wet ground.

TERROR IN A FLORIDA VILLAGE.
Three or Four Hundred Armed Negroes
Mako Threats.

Jacksonville, Fla, May s1.--Deputy
Sheriff Williams and posse of ten went
out to Greenland last night to suppress a
negro uprising there Early last week
Section Boss Henderson, of Greenland, a
small station on the St. Augustine road,
shot and killed a negro workman under him,
it is claimed, i'll self defense, as there We're
three of them fighting him at the same
time. Henderson, who is white man,
fled. Since then the negroes have been
searching for him and under the preteXt
that they believed he was concealed III his
own house they sat an armed guard about
it and refused to let Mrs. Henderson and
her two children go out There are only
few white neighbors, while the negroes
number two or three hundred. For four
days the Henderson family has been liv-
ing in constant terror, and it was only to-
day that word was sent here for help.
Williams and his posse found nearly three
hundred armed negroes riding and walking
about the village and threatening violence
to the Hendersons or to hold them as a
ransom until the death Of their negro com
rade had been avenged. The posse soon
scattered them and made. some arrests.
Williams has the names of the ring lead
ers and they will probably be indicted.
Henderson's family was removed by the
deputy to the house of relations in South
Jacksonville.

And When His Creditors Made a Run He

Raleigh, N. c., May 91.-(SpeciaL)-
There is a sensation at the mountain town
of Marion, with very sad ending. Ihe
last legislature chartered the Marion Bank
ing and Industrial Company. One W. I'll.
Roberts. of New York, came along and
took charge. The home people who had
lent their names saw the fraud and dropped
out. Roberts used stationery already
printed and victimized many persons in va
rious parts of the country. He was
searched for, but is in New York: A
few days afterwards his wife, who had for
time lived in handsome style at Marion,
returned there, John j. Stems, who was
ostensibIy the secretary of the so-called
banking company, being with her. She is
q lady of refinement and education and of
a wealthy family and married Roberts
eighteen months ago. For several months
he has been in New York, ostensibly en-
gagged as banker, while she remained with
her parents in Savannah, Ga. She knew
nothing of the troubles at Marion when
she arrived and has no knowledge of her
husbands business. She had had her rooms
there furnished in costly style. The cred
tors made a run, attachments were served
against the furniture and when she called
for the articles given her by her mother
and found that she could not move them,
her grief was distressing. She has now en-
tirey lost her mind, is restless and mag
ines she is going to be arrested and tried.
The sad news was telegraphed her parents
and they have arrived. Stevens was ar
rested, but made his escape from the Off
GERS and attempted to get to South Caro-
lima. He was caught Il few miles from Ma
rion. The charge against him was en-
bezzlement but he proved he had sent the
money he collected to Roberts at New
York. He is Roberts's cats paw and dupe.
As soon as released, Stevens again fled
and when there were some later develop
ments and fresh warrants were issued he
could not be found

Twenty-four new members were admitted

The feature of the forenoon session,
however, was the grand address, on Emo

Bleckley.
Mr. Bleckley then took up the subject,
"Emotional Justice 1t was a fine paper,
the strictest attention Of the association
and visitors during the reading.
Mr.. Bleckley declared that, unless the
people trusted to the preestablished laws
of the country to govern, our government
would fall.
1.-The existence of mobs is q reflection on
our courts, and is no more right than would
q legislative mob be were it to undertake
the enactment of laws. If lawyers were
less emotional in their appeals to juries,
there would be less of the mob spirit. Mobs
are not the people, and are not the voice of
the people. If the same parties that COM
pose mobs were to lend their assistance to
the courts in the collection of evidence and
the prosecution OF CRIMINALS that they dls-
play on these violent occasions our courts
would be more able, and would more often
convict criminals. 1t is wrong, and
threatens society"
1t was great argument against mob law,
and showed the remedies, if applied, to
place the courts in position TO execute
justice.

Tuscaloosa Ala, June 3-(Special. Last
night about 10 o'clock Tuscaloosa was star
tied by an explosion that caused windows to
culver and buildings to shatter.
The closing exercises of the Central Fe-
male college were being held in the concert
hall of the college building. A very large
crowd was III attendance. The exercises
were approaching the end. All was silence
in the hail. when the persons seated nearest
the windows saw flame shooting upward,
and Immediately following there WAS ter
rife shock. The building shook to its very
foundation. The rattle of the glass fall
ing added to the horror of the situation.
Women and children tainted, men trembled
and for a time it seemed there would be o
panic. Cool-headed men Gained the crowd,
and after the reaction quiet was restored,
and the exercises were continued.
The explosion was caused by the firing
of dynamite cartridge about fifty yards
from the college Two young men were
the guilty parties. Today they were
arrested and gave bond for their
appearance at court. They discaim any in
tention of malice, but say they intended it
as farewell shot in honor of the closing
of the school. 1t came very near resulting

WARM WEATHER HAS COME At LAST.
The Best Season Of tho Year TO Treat
Chronic Catarrh.

Understanding that q great number Of
people have been cured of chronic catarrh
by taking Peru-na during the past cold sea-
son, yet it cannot be denied that the cold,
wet, backward spring has retarded many
cures, and in some cases actually prevented
a cure. But, after unusual delay, summer
has come at last, and now is the time for
all catarrh sufferers to begin systematic
course of treatment for this disease. The
greatest difficulty in the way of treating
chronic catarrh is that the patient is SO La
BILE to catch cold during the treatment and
thus delay a cure. This liability at this
season of the year is in great measure re-
moved and no one should neglect the oppor-
tunity to be given treatment.
The proper way to begin treatment for
chronic caarrh is to take tablespoonful of
Pe-ru-na before each meal and at bedtime.
This dose should be Increased so that in
one month the patient will be taking two
tablespoonful at each dose; at which time
a report of the case by letter should be made
to DR.. Hartman, Columbus, O., and hewill
advise further.
Every patient should have copy Of The
Family Physician No g. which Is a thirty
two page pamphlet giving a complete de-
scription of the cause, symptoms and cure
Of catarrh. Sent free to any address.
Care for Children.
Myron W. Reed.
A few days ago, up in Wyoming, was hanged
boy, aged seventeen. He was fifteen when
he did murder. What was he the product OIL
Well, 1 should say neglect. He was father
less, motherless and the only attention ha
had was when he was arrested, convicted and
hanged. 1t cost the state more to try him and
kill him than Ii would have cost to take care
of him and send him to school.
A boy can't live on dime novels and no an
tidote Of human care and kindness. The
savage in him had been fed and had grown.
The soul in him had been starved. We do
much with dogs. We must try our genius on
forsaken children. This boy had had no fair
chance.
A board Of childrens guardians is doing ex-
cellent work in Indiana. When father and
mother forsake child, the great kind state
takes him up and not to the gallows Human
care and invention very low when the
only thing you do with boy is to kill
him. A good is a product, result.
Sudden goodness is hardly to be hoped for.
The little gamin, Gavroche, the sparrow Of
Paris streets, showed himself n hero ab the
barricade He dies, shot singing his little
broken song Of liberty. But inquire Into the
history of the waif, and he has been hero
ill along-an unobserved hero, sharing bis
crust and his shelter.
