THE Review of Reviews is almost in
dispensable to the general reader who
wishes to keep abreast of the rapidly
developing international questions of
the day. In the April number there is
a full and able editorial discussion of
the complicated African situation,
which is described as "the drama of
Europe IN Africa The mixed in
terests and motives of England, Russia,
Italy and France in the Dark Continent
are clearly set forth. Russia's general
attitude toward the European powers
is also discussed, and the editor com
ments briefly on Americas relations
with Spain, our interest in the Cuban
revolution, and the present status of
the Venezuelan boundary dispute. In

Chairman Republican State Com

During the winter Of 1898, f. M.
Martin, of Long Reach, West Va, con-
tracted a severe cold which left him
with a cough. In speaking of how he
cured it he says: II used several kinds
of cough syrup but found no relief I'M
til I bought a bottle OF Chamberlain
Cough Remedy, which relieved me al
most instantly, and in a short time
brought about a complete cure"
When troubled with a cough or cold
use this remedy and you will not find
it necessary to try several kinds before
you get relief It has been in the
market for over twenty years and con-
stantly grown in favor and popularity.

The Trinity Church Property.

In 1888 Everardus Bogardus, the
second minister of the early Dutch
Reformed Church to come to this con-
tinent, married Annette Cor Anneke)
Jams, the widow of one Roelof Jams.
The lady had inherited from her first
husband farm of sixty-two acres,
situated in what is now the center of
the business part of New York City.
This piece of land was known for many
years as, "Dominie's Bowery." In
1647 Dominic Bogardus, who had be-
come involved in dispute with the
officers of his church, set sail for Hol-
land to refer matters to his ecclesiastic-
al superiors there. The ship was
wrecked, however, in the British Chan
mel, and Bogardus was among the
passengers that were lost. Whether
it was because his heirs did not pay
due attention to attesting their claims
to the "BOwery," or whether they
we're in some way bought off, is not
now known, but shortly after the TAX
ing of the New Netherlands by the
British, in 1864, we find this land in
possession of the government and
known as the Kings Farm" In
I7O5 this tract was granted by the
crown to Trinity Church corporation,
and became the foundation OF it's great
wealth. The descendants of Anneke
Jams Bogardus have made many at
tempts to have their claim to this
property recognized by the courts, but
without success. AS the church's title
to the property from the crown is
complete it is extremely improbable
that the Jans-Bogardus heirs will ever
get any part Of it.

TACOMA, WD. March 81, 1896.
The republican state convention is
called to meet at the city of Everett
May IA, 1886, at 10 O'Clock Il. H., for
the purpose of selecting eight delegates
and eight alternates to the republican
convention to be held at st Louis on
June Is. 1896, to select candidates for
the office of president and vice presl-
dent OF the United States. The basis
of representation to the convention
will be one delegate at large from eacl,
county, and one for each one hundred
votes, and one for each fractional vote
over fifty, as calculated from the high
est vote received by the candidate On
the congressional ticket in 1894, in
the respective counties, the apportion-
ment of Mason county being 8 dele
gates.
It. is recommended that the county
convention in electing delegates to the
state convention also elect alternates.
In the judgment of the executive
committee it is not necessary for the
different county conventions and
primaries to be held under the primary
law Of 1895. However, each county
ommittee may determine for itself
whether or not it will proceed under
this law, or in the usual manner.

Puget Sound Vessels.

Hall Bros, he pintr,r ship hulldef-
at Port Blakeley, have no d"rht h"il
more vessels than any ship-hnldlng
firm on the coast which have been good
sailers and carriers, as wei! as acknowl-
edged beautiful models. Hall Bros.
have built or rather will bave built
eighty-four vessels in all when the two
large vessels that are now under way
are completed, thirty one OF which were
built at Port Ludlow and fifty-three at
Port Blakeley. The first vessel that
was built by Hall on this coast was the
schooner Il. B. Haywood, which was
built by Mr.. Isaac Hall, now deceased
since 1879, and attracted considerable
attention for her graceful lines. After
that, early in 1874, a partnership was
formed by Isaac Hall and his two
brothers, w. T. and Henry, and has
since been known as Hall Bros. The
first vessel built by Hall Bros. was the
schooner Annie Gee in April, 1874, and
since then Hall Bros. have been the
leading wooden ship builders Of the
coast. Mr.. w. T. Hall is the designer
and resides in San Francisco, from
where he sends the lines of the vessels
to Port Blakeley, where the construc-
ton is attended to by Mr.. Henry Hall
and his son James, who has been
brought up thorough shipbuildel.
Hall Bros. employ about from 80 to
100 men, many of whom have been in
the employ of Mr.. Hall since the firm
started, and all others have profound
respect for their employer. While the
ship carpenters are not so fortunate III
securing steady employment on ac-
count of the wet season necessitating
stoppage in work, they earn good pay
while they do work The firm is now
building a large steamer and five
masted schooner. The steamer, which
is designated as number SO until she is
christened, is for the Inter Island steam
ship company of Honolulu and is the
eighth steamer built for that company
by Hall BrOs.-Seattle Times.
