It's Abuse and Its Re-

How many unfortunate men have vio-
lated the.laws of nature and are now pay
ing the penalty?
Some have been addicted to foolish
habits in their youth; some have oyer
indulged later in life; while others have
wearied themselves into unmanly weak
ness over bad crops, business reverses or
financial failure. In one way or another
they have overdrawn on their stock of
vitality, which is getting dangerously low.
As consequence they have lost their
grip on life. Every little annoyance
seems a mountain of despair. Every
speck in the heavens looks like an over
whelming shadow. Every cherished am
bition is dead, and the poor, suffering
victim almost wishes he were dead too.

after sumptuous feast presented Captain

In response, Captain Whitman SAID that
this was one of the occasions when his
heart was too full for utterance, but he
hoped he woil never do anything to
bring disgrace upon the emblem.
Supervisor Dimond arose and compli-
mented the captain on his gift, saying he
hoped it would be changed only in case of

Judge Coffey yesterday removed John

stock, and died October %, $685. leaving
no Will.
On February II. 1894, John T. More was
appointed administrator of his estate, part
of which consisted of 1900 head of cattle
and 10000 sheep at pasture on Santa Rosa
Island.
John +. More continued in complete
charge of the affairs of the immense prop
erty until few months ago, when Mrs.
Eliza Miller, one of the heirs at law OF the
| deceased, became convinced that all was
not as it should be, and made application
to have More ousted. He was temporarily
suspended by Judge Coffey and Mrs
Miller granted special letters of admins
tration,

followed, Judge Coffey made the order
filed yesterday. Ais Honor says in part:

Judge Coffey further recites how Mr..

The Association of Retail Dealers Dis
cuss Plans for the Coming

The political situation formed the SUBJ

meeting of the Retail Grocers' Association
last night.
Mr.. Nobmann explained that, pursuant
to an invitation issued by the directors of
the Retail Grocers' Association, commit.
tees from various organizations of liquor
dealers met and decided to leave all action
to meeting of the directors of all the in
terested associations.
This meeting was called and it was de-
cided to form club to be com posed of

this club, which was named the Whole.
sale and Retail Liquor Dealers League.
Mr.. Nobmann said he had been made vice
chairman. He then outlined their plans
so far as they were perfected.
A list was to be made of the 10. 900 men
interested in the liquor business. To each
OF these, day or so before election, a
ticket would be mailed bearing the names
OF those candidates who were friendly TO
the interests Of the liquor-dealers. These
men the liQuor-dealerS would be expected
to vote for. Mr.. Nobmann also explained
that precautions were being taken to pre-
vent any imitation of the ticket used by
the league.
Numerous speeches followed. Thev

Colonel de Wogack, Military Agent
Of Russia In China and Japan.
[Sketched from life By a "CaA" artfst.l

Port Arthur, seeing the great contest
there, and so continued until the close OF
the war.
The difference between Japan and
CHINA IN this war was, that Japan had
trained soldiers. OF course she had good
Warships and they were we'll manned, ana
the arms on sea and on shore were all that
coulQ be desired. China had good arms
too, but her soldiers were not trained; the
di1lerence was in the training.
90 Tar as the story of the press dis
patches is concerned, that the purpose of
the visit OF Ii hung Chang to the different
countrles OF the world was preparatory to
opening the ports of China, l believe the
ports are all pretty well opened now. Lii
Hung Chang has stood his trip well, not
withstanding the fact that he is "a
years old. L got a letter from some of
his friends since my arrival here, and they
tell me that he got through in excellent
condition.
NOW as 10 the story that Russia is
about to take possession of Korea, it seems
to me that Russia does not intend to do
this or 1t would have been done long ago.
She could have taken possession of the
country at any tlmesshe desired. but Rus
sia did not do so, and, as l understand it.
she only wants that Korea shall remain an
independent country. You know the
Government there has not been very sta HE
for good while.
"As for Japan losing Formosa. as has
also been reported, l see no reason whv it
should lose that country. There is nobody
there except some Chinese and some ma
tives that it can easily keep in subiection.
and there is no cause whatever that can
see why Japan should lose Formosa.' -
Colonel de Wogack will be here only a
short time. He will sail for Japan in the
Doric on her next trip.
