ADHERENCE TO THE MONROE DOC
TRINE.

Our attitude should be that of un-
f1inching and unfaltering devotion to the
principles and practices of this govern
ment hitherto, and III SO doing we shall
not bring war upon the United States;
but we shall protect ourselves against
war by securing respectful recognition
of our national purpose by all the ma
tions of the world.
The attitude of the United States to-
ward the Venezuelan question should be
that of determined opposition to any
movement of England, the result of
which would~impair or weaken our anc-
lent declaration of support of the Mon
roe doctrine. Our construction of the
scope of that doctrine should be pro-
claimed and adhered to. once pro-
claimed, a faithful adherence to and
recognition of our construction by the
nations of the earth should be the con-
ditions upon which alone friendly re-
lations with us can be maintained

Crisis" by Representative Sharles H.
Grosvenor of Ohio, in North American

MR.. VAN KEUREN'S Def.
| He VIII Die Rather Than Have Six
Poles EsefOre His HOUSE.

Ehe Consolidated Traction Company this
morning attempted to erect pole in front
of house owned by Mr.. Benjamin Van
Keuren, at Grand and Prior Streets but was
prevented by number of Mr.. Van Keu
ren's workmen, who drove the Traction
men away and filled up the holes.
Mr.. Van Keuren then drove to the Fourth
Precinct Police strtion and asked for an Of
ficer to prevent the Traction people from
erecting the pole.
Acting Captain Finley telephoned to Po-
lice Headquarters and was instructed to as
certain if the Traction Company had per-
nit to erect the pole and if they did not to
prevent them.
Mr. Van keuren then started to see Chief
Murphy. He said that there were already
five poles in front of the house, and he
would make strenuous effort to prevent
any more being erected. To Jersey City
News reporter, he said that the Traction
Company wanted the earth, and he ex-
pected that they would get it sooner OF
later, but there was one thing certain, they
would never put up another pole in front of
that house unless it was over his dead body.
I he pole has not yet been erected.

the nine appointecs, saying thas the use
of her name by the trustees had been
unauthorized by her; that she had not
known of its use until seeing the account
published in 1.-THE News: that upon
since receiving her appointment from
Secretary John H. Carnes she had de-
cl.ned it, and that she wished Mrs. Grew
cling to express to the ladies her SYM
pathy with and good feeling for them
in their consequent action.
MRS. WINCHESTER ANSWERED.
The ladies expressed great Indignation at
the published statement made by Mrs.
Sarah Winchester, matron of the Home,
in regard to the supplies. They said the
receipted bills for clothing, groceries, bed
ding and other supplies in possession of
Messrs. Cowles and George w. Conk-
lin, showing the purchases for the Home
to date would prove the falsity of her
statement The ladies of the board have
been in the habit of paying s12 dues
each per year and a fine of twenty-five
cents for each absence from a meeting,
besides raising money in various other
ways for the Home.
Deep regret was expressed by the MEM
bers of the Board at giving up service
for the Home after terms ranging in
length from one to twenty years, and at
parting with one another. 1t was even
said that the latter difficulty must be OBJ
waited by social reunion of the mem
bers of the old Board during the win
ter. During the many years since its
organization the ladies have never had
a disagreement of any kind among them
selves; there has always been the ut
most good feeling among them.
Mrs Creveling served refreshments to
her guests and an attempted social chat
followed, but it was largely interspersed
with the rumors of various kinds as to
the action different people concerned in
the affair would take. The ladies were
unanimous in deciding that the full ac-
count of the meeting should be published
so that the world should know that Mrs
Palmer, Mrs. White and Mrs. Quimby
were vindicated at least by their fellow
workers, the Board of Domestic Con-
troll

She Has Use for ai.,lets.

An ingenious woman has found new
uses for that common little boring tool
called gimlet. One night while stop
ping at a hotel her room was entered
and robbed. Being travelling wom-
an and realizing that the same thing
was again likely to happen,she hitupon
the gimlet as protective measure.
Every night thereafter, when fate de-
creed that she must put up at a hotel.
she produced her gimlets and made
windows, doors and transom secure by
boring the gimlet ''clean through"
One night when she had gimleted her
room so that she was absolutely safe
from midnight marauders tho cry Of
'Fire!" was heard. She was up in an
instant. She saw through the tran
so4n the reflection of flames in the hall
way. Escape was cut off from that
quarter She hastily unscrewed the
gimlets from the window, and, looking
out, saw a roof thirty feet below. So
practical woman must certainly have
a clothesline handy, and such was a
fact. In a jiffy she had screwed two
of her mucn beloved gimlets into the
wooden sill, fastened an end of the
rope to them, and climbed down in
safety to the roof. The gimlets were
burned up in the fire, but the ingenious
woman laid in another stock, and from
that day to this you cnn always count
on finding from hatf a dozen to dozen
of the gimlets in her satchel.
