BLOWN ACROSS THE PACIFIC
Captain stephens cf the British Ship
Welttlebourn Tells His Story.


welttlebourn Tells His Story.
Tacoma, Wash, Dec. 15.-Captain
Stephens OF the British ship Whittle-
burn, which arrived al Port Townsend
today, says:
Three times the Whittleburn was
blown out Of the straits before she sue
ceeded in entering. The vessel has been
pursued by storms all the way across
from Shang Hal, but she was lightly
laden with ballast and rode through the
storm practically unharmed.
q never saw such storms in all the
time nave been going TO sea. The gale
struck us off the coast of Japan and
followed US all the way across. We left
Shang Hal on October 26, and never
sighted vessel until about forty miles
outward bound.
During the past month / nave not
had more than Hfree hour. sleep during
the twenty-four. / have lain down only
to be called back on deck again. We
were ten days off the straits and three
times attempted to enter, but the gale
blew us out to sea again each time.
Twice We were inside of F1attery, but
the gale again drove Us out. Monday
the heavy southesster struck us and We
were driven within two miles Of Van
couver shore before it suddenly chang
ed. We had ell given up all hope Of
ever putting foot on land again. l tell
you, 1 thanked God when we reached
Port Townsend"
Captain Stephen. believes that the
Cleveland was caught in just such
gale and that the force Of the wind was
such that IL was impossible to fight
against it.
THE Pelican is probably lost" said
Captain Stephens. 81 don't believe that
she could live through the storm that
has been raging on the Pacific for the
last month. There is another tramp
somewhere outside, and j would not be
surprised to learn that she had gone
down"

SENATE rs COMING AROUND.
Prospects OF Hawaiian Annexation
Were Never Better.

Prospects OF Hawaiian Annexation
Were Never Better.
Chicago, Dec. ia special to the
Record from Washington says:
There has been a decided change in
the situation of the Hawaiian treaty
within the last few days and the mem
bers of the committee on foreign rela-
tons are now quite confident of its rati-
fication Senator Hoar says ne is not
opposed to the American annexation OF
the Hawaiian Island as territory, pro-
vided the rights Of natives are thorough
Iy protected. He is, however, opposed
ID Hawaii as state and will resist any
attempt to deprive the natives OF fair
snare in the responsibilities and the
privileges of government. He also says
that under no circumstances will he an
tagonize the policy of the president, and
expects to have a consultation with him
in a very few days to ascertain MS
wishes concerning annexation and oth-
er subjects. Nor does Mr.. Hoar think
there is any intention on the Repu5li-
can side to interfere with the policy of
the administration in foreign affairs.
He considers it the duty OF every loyal
Republican to stand with the admins
tration. Senator Morrill, OF Vermont
has also been skeptic on the Hawaiian
question and was counted against rati-
fication but like Mr.. HOar ne is coming
around all right. Mr.. Hale, VINO was
also counted with the opposition, it
quite indignant. because he mas never
wavered. This leaves Mr.. Pettigrew as
the only Republican senator opposed to
annexation. Senators German, Morgan
and Money have commenced active op-
erations on the Democratic side and are
making a thorough canvass in behalf of
ratification. The action of the Demo
cratic members of the house in caucus
in leaving the Hawaiian question for
each man to vote according TO mis- own
judgment, takes it out OF the test OF
political issues and make. it easier for
Mr.. German to secure votes. Although
the fate of the treaty has seemed doubt
full ever since the assembling OF congress
the prospect is now more hopeful than
* ever has been

to go further without being forced to.
Warmers makeup as farm hand Is an
excellent one. He is dressed in a suit OF
jeans, with a yellow canvas jumper and
a thick woolen cap. His face is covered
with a thick growth OF red beard. In
spite of his disguise. however. certain
lines OF refinement in his face betrayed
him as man OF education and led to
his arrest
When. questioned by a reporter after
his arrival in Kansas City, Warner said:

per fellows, so I've made up my mind not
10 talk
Later Warner told briefly how he had
escaped from the east and eluded the Of
ficers so long. He had been in hiding in
Jersey City for some time, he said. and
becoming tired OF his oonceaiment decid-
ed to give himself up. On his way 10 the
station, however, the sight OF bicycle
on curbing opened up an avenue of es-
cape. He stole the wheel and rode 20
Philadelphia. After short time in that
city ne started west, making his way to
Kansas on his wheel by easy stages. He
claims to have been at Riley for seven
weeks. At Riley he passed as George

THE GREAT HUXLEY.
What huxley, the Great English Scien-
tist, Considered the Best
S..r, ar

The great English scientist, Huxley
said the best start in life is a sound
stomach. Weak stomachs fail to diges;
food properly because they lack the
proper quantity of digestive acids Qsc-
tic and hydrochloric) and peptogenic
products; the most sensible remedy in
all cases of Indigestion, is to take after
each meal one or two OF Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets because they supply in
a pleasant, harmless form all the ele-
ments that weak stomachs lack.
The regular use OF Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will cure every form of stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach.
They increase flesh, insure pure
blood, strong nerves, a bright eye and
clear complexion, because all these re-
suit only from wholesome food well di-
gested.
Nearly all druggists sell Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets at 80 cents full sized

Yesterday the brick block on West
Douglas avenue in which the harness
store of Henry Scnad IS located was sold
10 DR.. Dorsey. The trade was made on
day before yeste rday and money ad-
vanced Oh the dead with The understand
ing that an abstl act should be exsmin-
ed. The abstTac was turned over to
Or. Dorsey We: terday morning and
after an examiI ,ation ne accepted the
title and became: the owner OF the prop
erty. The sale was accomplished by D.
F. Fuller and the consideration was
tairty-fve hundred dollars. Dr.. Dorsey
will fit out the second story for an office
and t;1e lower floor win be for rent.
The transfer was made from the
names of J. P. Allen, Stewart and
Burns and appetizer party, who nave
been owners of the property for some
time. It will be noted in this conRec-
lion that the push is extending. The
fist sale in the recent run was on the
the corner Of Douglas and Main, East
Douglas. Other sales have followed,
llo+T1 e9st sn9 west on Douglas and
north on Main. The sale Of the Schad
rropersv on West Douglas is another of
li1e important purchases made by
Wichita men. II is illustrative OF the
sentiment at the bottom OF the recent
in,netUs. The business of the city nav
ing reached the substantial ard COM
prehensive basis that warrants the
owners in buying better blocks Of the
town, the future OF Wichita as COM
mercial center becomes assured Wioh-
ita people are buying Wichita property,
and the investment is good.
