Az AdmIral VINO Is seasIek.


THE belief that naval men and
sailors generally are never seasick, :"
said an officer on one of the big war
ships anchored off Stapleton, lis a
mistake. There are men holding
high rank in our navy today, one of
whom, by the way, is an admiral,
who are invariably seasick ON their
first cruise after shore duty. One
such officer IS always laid up for two
or three days on his first cruise, and
he is too Ill to attend to his duties.
Every one in the navy knows
this weakness of the officer to whom
I refer. He has tried various pre-
ventives of seasickness, and exDe-
rience has taught him that they do
him no good. He gave them up long
ago, and in recent years he has be-
gun his cruises with the certainty
that for two or three days he would
be deathly sick, and in no case has
he been disappointed. / have seen
old sailors so seasick that they
couldn t work, and / have come to
the conclusion that there are many
men who never can conquer their
weakness in this direction, no matter
how much time they pass aboard
ship. New York Sun.

To comprehend fully what the
control of a vast waterway thread
ing the richest part of Guiana would
mean to America and American in
terests one must study carefully the
map of South America. Geographers
divide the southern continent into
three great basins, those of the Anna
zon, the Orinoco and the Plata. To
dominate the mouth of any one Of
these great arteries of commerce
would be to become the master Of
one-third of South America. The
Orinoco is navigable for vessels of
the deepest draft to Ciudad Bolivar,
Venezuela's eastern metropolis.
Within this distance of 400 miles 20
other navigable rivers swell the
mighty current of the Orinoco, while
still farther into the interior the
eastern bank receives the waters of
81 large rivers, and the west those
of 80. Two of the former are navi-
gable to the affiuents of the ANA
zon, and many of the latter to the
remote interior of the neighboring
republics of Venezuela and Colom-
bia.
If she were to gain control of the
Orinoco, England would possess the
key to the entire eastern part of
South America. This view has been
advanced by ex-President Guzman
Blanco in a recent publication. He
attaches to the possession of Punta
Barima the ability to dominate the
Orinoco and the entire water system
which empties into it. Punta Bari
ma is on the southeastern bank of
the Orinoco, at its junction with the
sea, and is described as high bluff
which, when properly fortified,
would control this entrance, the
most navigable of all the mouths of
the Orinoco.
It would not be under water dur
ing the period of inundation, and,
with a dockyard and three or four
river gunboats. its master might lock
up the Orinoco and all that vast
tributary country. On the other
hand, the counter view is advanced,
and should be stated, that the posi-
tion of Punta Barima would enable
the English to dominate only one
pass by means of guns placed on
fortifications on shore, since at least
two of the other mouths of the OH
I ho r~e.ls.-..1s
the sea.
The best line of communica, ION
) today between Trinidad and Ciu6ad
Bolivar Is by "a sidewheel steamer,
built in the United States, which
passes through a mouth of the Ori-
noco far to the west of Punta Bari
ma, on the bar of which there is at
least eight feet of water. 1t there.
fore may be argued that fortifica-
! tions at Punta Barima could not
close the Orinoco, the control OF
which would depend upon vessels OF
war. England : strength as u sea
power, with Trinidad as q base,
gives her all necessary control OF
the river today. If British Guiana
should develop into a great nation.
claiming and owning one bank OF
the Orinoco, Punta Barima would
become point of great Importance,
but this is a contingency hardly tc
be dreaded by Venezuela, since, with
her superb natural advantages, she
must inevitably keep the lead.-W

K1owA COUNTY CASE.
Railroad Operated at Loss Wants to
Take Up It's Rails.

The people of KiOwa county are at
present greatly interested in the suit
now pending between that county and
the Wichita & Western railway The
question is now in the hands of w c.
Perry, special master in chancery, and
it is probable that a decision will be
reached soon.
The controversy is over the portion
of the Wichita & Western road from
Pratt to the terminus at MuIlinville
The railroad alleges that that part of
the line is operated at a loss, and asks
that they be allowed not only to cease
the running of trains west of Pratt
but also to take up the rails and sell
them. The county in turn asks that
the railroad be forced to continue the
operation of trains on that portion of
the road as per the contract made in
1888.
The parties interested in the suit
made a trip over the portion of the
road in question last week, and after
ward took evidence in the matter.

THE GROCERS' FLOAT.
It Will be Handsome and Represent a
a Model Grocery Store.

The Topeka Retail Grocers' associa-
ton intends to do all in it's power to
make the big Fail Festival parade a
success.
At a meeting of the association held
last night the report of the committee
appointed to report on plan for a. dis
play was received. The committee is
composed of Thomas Hanley, Vim.
Green, w. S Kale, Hugh LAWYER, Frank
NewIand and William Dransfield.
The committee had agreed that an
appropriate thing for the association to
do would be to build a float in the form
of a model grocery store, with busy
cashiers. The store will be made as
complete and the decorations as elab-
crate as possible
The wholesale houses will be asked to
contribute a large line of samples, which
will be distributed as the float passes
up the street.
The report of the committee was ap-
proved and the committee was author
lied to carry out the plans and build
the float in accordance with the plans
submitted. The committee will COM
mence work at once.
Another important move of the aSso-
citation was the appointment of the fol-
lowing committee on entertainment and
organization: R. I. Jones, Samuel Lux,
A. F. Weber William DranSfeld.
This committee will not only provide
for the entertainment of the grOcers
from different parts of the state who
attend the Fall Festival, but will make
arrangements for the organization Of
state associat ton some time during Fes-
tival week.
1t is. the intention to form as large a
state association as possible. Many of
the larger cities already have organ
iZatiOns, but in the smaller towns little
has been done toward an organization
and it is the intention to unite these in
a. state association. Invitations Will
be sent out to all the grocerS IN the
state to be present and assist in the
fnrnaine. of the state organization.

the corn belt tonight. May opened I'M
changed at 245sc and advanced to
24%c.
OATS-Quiet and a. shade higher.
May opened at 1881 0187sc and steadied
