attempt in three different charges upon Berke-

against j. q. Gardner, manager of the Electric
Lighting Company for statements Whiting
claimed were llbelOus of his character. Another
complaint sought to throw suspicious of dis

lighting the town. third complaint charged
an exoffcial OF The town with bribery. None
of these complaints were thought worthy OF

Like all familiar customs whose origin Is lost
in antiquity, the wearing of orange blossoms at
a wedding is accounted for in various ways.
Among other stories is the following pretty
legend from Spain:
An African Prince presented Spanish King
with magnificent orange tree whose creamy
waXy blossoms and wonderful fragrance
excited the admiration OF the whole
Court. Many begged IN vain for branch of
the plant. but foreign ambassador was tor

curiosity to bis native and. He had used every

FIRST NEWS OF THE PATROL

The United States cruiser Concord has
made her first capture. Her crew are
proud of the achievement, though it was
bloodless victory and consisted of the
overhaullng of the Victoria sealing
schooner Wanderer.
The Concord'S initiation into active SER
vice with the Bering Sea patrol raised the
fond hope in the breasts of her officers
and seamen that an Illegal hunter of seals
would give them a chance to test the little
cruisers speed in chase.
The awe-insDiring presence of such ves-
sells as the Rush, the Corwin and the
Adams, which generally nose about in the
Arctic icehOes and afford gread amuse-
ment for the swift-winged feet that shoots
seals against the law. has imbued the seal
poacher of the north with the idea that
the United States guards the Bering Sea

answer to the populist contention that
the tariff is but a sham issue put up by
the money power to keep the real issue
obscdred. Almost every populist speak
er who has ever been here before has
asserted this, and the pool deluded re-
publicans and democrats have been
pitied for being 80 gullible as to discuss
the tariff question. One OF the speakers
in the grove a few months ago proved to
the satisfaction Of his sympathetic hear
ers that the difference between a demo-
cratic and a republican tariff was just
three cents per capita for the year.
But ii he and the other popullst speak
ers were right then, Kyle's whole speech
was the biggest sham hattie ever at
tempted, for out of his hour and three
quarter speech he devoted one hour and
a quarter to lighting this "sham" tariff
