Admiral Markham was on board the

Admiral Markham was on board the
Camperdown and in charge of the maneu-
vers at the time that vessel sank the Vic
toria. He therefore is held responsible
for the disaster, and it has been decided to
try him by court-martial.
The cruiser Barham. with Rear-Admiral
Markham's official report of the loss of the
Victoria, is expected to arrive at Port
Said tonight. The report will be sent by
cable to the admiralty Office here.
All the survivors of the disaster sailed
from Tripoli to-day, presumably for Malta.
on the cruisers Edgar and Phaeton.
One newspaper has started a theory that
the Victoria disaster was due to attraction
by the electricity used on both vessels for
lighting purposes, but discreetly refrains
from further explanation respecting this
unique suggestion.
A dramatic incident occurred at Malta
yesterday. The warshp Colossus. which
parted from the fleet just before the dis
aster. was entering the harbor with the
crew in the best of spirits ana singing to
the band. which was playing Home,
Sweet Home" When the officers were
advised of the disaster the band abruptly
stopped playing, the flags were lowered at
halt-mast, and gloom fell upon all on
hoard, many of whom had belonged to the
Victoria and had been transferred to
the Colossus, thus losing many personal
chums.
a number of questions were asked by
members Of the Commons to-day regard
ing the laundering of the Victoria. Re-
plying to those questions. Right Hon. u.

WASHINGTON. June 26-Admiral Cher
ardi attributes the loss Of the Victoria to
the failure of the steam stearing-gear of
the Camperdown. He says that twice
during his voyage from the Pacific 20
Hampton Roads, where his vessels were to
take part in the naval review. his flagship
was signaled, once by the Charleston and
once by the San Francisco. with the infor-
nation that the steam steering apparatus
had given out, but, owing to the fact that
the vessels were not in close quarters, no
damage whatever resulted.
VICTORIA. June 26.-Among the officers
and men of the ships at Esquimalt the loss
of the Victoria is still the talk. Several
who went down were known. having been
mere with II. NJ. S. Triumph. These are
Chaplain Morris, Fleet Surgeon Bole and
Gunnery Instructor Keats. Messrs. Hull
ton and Lamb bert had also friends here,
the former being relative of Captain
Hutton of the Amphion.

DE BOIS DIED HARD.
The Man With the Bullet in His
Brain Finally Succumbs.
But 1t Took the Slug Four Months to
Accomplish Its Work-Result
of the Autopsy.
Special to THE MORNING CALL

SoNOMA. June 26.-Alfred de Bos, the
young man with bullet in his brain, is
dead. On February IA last, near this
place, while handling pistol. the weapon
was accidentally discharged and the bullet
penetrated the right temple and lodged in
his brain. This case has excited much in
terest, it being a strange thing for the man
to live so long and for the most part COM
fortably, with large bullet in his brain.
An autopsy was conducted at the County
Hospital yesterday at Santa Rosa. where
De Bois died, by DR.. Charles Smith, the
hospital physician, and DR.. w. K. Vance of
Sonoma. the latter having had charge of
the patient for the first few weeks after the
accident.
The bullet was found embedded in the
right frontal or the anterior lobe of the
brain proper to the extent of half an inch
This part of the brain is understood to be
cOncerne ed only with the intellectual func-
tions.
The bullet had not travelled more than
an inch from its entrance and took an
oblique course. The skullcap through
which the bullet made its way was very
thick, accounting for the com pressed con-
dition Of the bullet, which was found al
most as fiat on one side as a nickel.
The brain was generally healthy and
presented normal appearance in the
immediate nelghbOrhood of where the bull
let was found. The victim might have
lived on had not the lining or membrane
Of the brain at the site of the injury be-
come infamed. 1t was this Inflammation
of the brain membrane that laid the pa
tient low.
1t is a notable point that De Bois at no
time suffered severe pain at the seat of the
injury. All the pain was located behind
the left ear and at the top of the skull.

AN ORDINARY MURDER.
But 1t Resembled Somewhat the
Work of the RipDer.

LONDON, June 26.-The foul crimes of
Jack the Ripper were again called to mind
last night by the murder that was COM
mitted in Rotherhithe, suburb short
distance to the southeast of London. The
body of woman belonging to the un-
fortunate class was found with throat cut,
as was the case in all the murders COM
mltted by the Ripper in the Whitechapel
district of London. The murderer eff
fected his escape. The dead woman was
not mutilated. The police think it was
but an ordinary murder.

s1r. Lowall,s ouestion.

A few wears before the death of James
Russell Lowell he wrote a poem which
he was to read upon a certain public oc-
casion. Naturally the newspapers de-
sired to secure the copy. Mr.. H., who
was then and is yet engaged upon Bos
ton daily newspaper, was detailed by his
managing editor to call upon Mr.. Low
ell and secure, if possible, the much de-
sired poem. After great deal of i'm
portunity from the newspaper man Mr..
Lowell said:
'Let me ask you question frankly,
man to man, and if then you decide that
ought to give you the poem / promise
you I will. If you knew needed 5000,
you would not ask me to give it to you.
know that perfectly well. But that is
just what you are asking me. I have a
market for my poem in The Atlantic
Monthly provided they have the oppor-
tunity of first publishing it. IF it sirst
printed in the daily newspapers of this
country, Of course it is no use for a mag
azine. Now, then, / tell you frankly,
/ do need the 5000, and ask you the
question, Shall 1 give you the poem on
your request. or shall I keep it for the
magazineT

whore the Telegraph Is Least Used.

The four countries in the world which
possess the smallest telegraph facilities
are Peru, Paraguay, Uruguay and Per-
sia. In the first named there are only 36
telegraph offices in the whole country
and but 1000 miles of wire. In the ter
ritory of Paraguay there are only $40
miles of wire in operation, and the entire
telegraphic service of that country re-
quires the services of but 28 persons.
One line of 800 miles, owned and oper-
ated by the government, runs from As
uncion to Paso de Patria, the limit of
Paraguayan territory, and the other 100
miles by the railroad from Asuncion to
Pirapo.
Owing to high water and forest fires
in that country the line is often inter-
rupted for days at a time. At Paso de
Patria the line breaks, there being no
cable over the Alto Parana river, which
is three miles wide. Communication is
therefore by canoe, which takes mes
sages over in the morning to the Argen-
tine side and returns to the Paraguayan
side atnight. An important telegram is
often delayed 10 or 15 hours. Hartford

Where Victims ms Of Morphine and Liquor
Go to Be Cured

The Tyson Liquor Cure has now been on trial
six months in stockton, and its complete sue
cess has been most conclusiyely demonstrated.
In order to prove the merits of the Cure, its pro-
moters at the outset treated free of charge sew
eral cases of the most confirmed inebriates and
morphine users that could be found How
these men were restored to health, cured of the
habit and restored to manhood are matters Of
local history well known to ALL In every in
stance the thirst for hquor was effectualiy
killed, and of the numerous cases there has not
been one relapse. This leaves no question of
doubt of the efficacy of the treatment, for II q
man can go six months without taking opiates
or without having the slightest desire TO drink,
II shows that the habit has been oyerthrown.
The Tyson Cure is matter that temperance
reformers and philanthropists should take up.
1t has been proven time and again that the will
power is not sufficient to overcome the vice Of
drunkenness in fact, physicians now agree that
alcoholism is a disease. Here. then, is offered q
practical solution OF the whole matter.
The Tyson Cure association was organized in
Stockton city six months ago, and its directors
are among the most prominent citizens of
stockton. The Offices are located In the Odd
Fellows building, at the corner of Main and
Hunter streets.

To be able to compliment without

probably no race of men are endowed
with that gift more extensively than the
French.
An example of the Frenchman's rare

that sweet little story of q man who had
ventured to compliment a whiteshaired
old lady upon her beauty.
