WANTS HER SHIP BACK.
France Requests the Release of
Olinde Rodriguez.

Washington, July 2s.-The French
embassy has called the attention of the
state department to the circumstances
connected with the seizure of the
French merchant steamship Olinde
Rodriguez and has requested the imme-
date release of that steamer. This ac-
ton was taken simultaneously with a
protest from the French Transatlantic
Steamship company against the seiz-
ure.
The state department has submitted
all the papers in the case to the depart
ment of justice with a view to getting
an opinion on the legal questions in
vOlved. The grounds Of the representa-
lions by the embassy are that the
Rodriguez was engaged in ordinary
mercantile pursuits, and also has on
board the official mail of the French
government destined to the French
minister at Port Au Prince. 1t is said
that her manifest shows she was not
intending to enter q blockaded port
The representations are those usually
made in behalf of French interests and
there is no disposition at the state de-
partment to regard them as other than
friendly inquiry.

BOOMS THE HOSPITAL.
More Salvation Army Testimony
That It is All Right.

Adjutant T. S. Mashburn and wife
who have taken charge of the Topeka
section of the Salvation Army. consist
ing of the Army hospital. Topeka corps
and Lawrence, Ottawa, EmpOria, Salina
and Abilene, are greatly interested in
the success of the work and have eS-
tabished headquarters at the Army
hospital, corner of Sixth and Buchanan
streets.
In looking over the splendid work
that is being accomplished in the hos
pital said Adjutant Mashburn, I find
1t very satisfactory indeed.
1t is generally known by the public,
and correctly so, that this is a charita-
bic institution and therefore merits q
substantial support from the people of
this city.
I find by careful Investigation, that
in order to successfully carry on this
work 1t requires an income of $50 per
week or $3,12O annually. At present
there are Is patients in the hospital.
THE public is cordially invited to
visit and inspect this institution. Visit
ing hours from p. m. to o. m. on
Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fri
days and Sundays. Limit of visit 20
minutes.
I am extremely anxious to establish
a substantial basis for the support of
this noble work. My time is so COM
pletely taken up in these, together with
other duties in connection with the
work of a sectional officer, that it is
impossible for me to personally call and
collect, from month to month, the con-
tr1butons, therefore, I shall authorize
an assistant, who will always carry his
credentials and give a receipt for all
amounts received. All DESTROYS may
send in their contribution by check
made payable to Adjutant T. S. Mash
burn. Address, corner Sixth and Blu
Chanap streets"

SHORTAGE FRUITS.
The Decrease is Chiefly in Peaches,
Pears and Apricots-

San Francisco, July 2S.-Notwith-
standing the fact that there is a short
age in the deciduOus fruit crop this year,
the shipments of green fruits so far
this season exceed those for the same
Southern Pacific company, who has
made a thorough study of the supply
of green fruit in all parts of the state,
estimates that about 1900 car loads will
be shipped this year, against $500 last
year. The shortage is chiefly in pears,
peaches and apricots. There will be an

our dead ancestry, but in all candor it
must be granted that the early white
settlers as we'll as some later ones, in
their mad and am bilious race for mater
isl advancement. cared little for these
valuable memorials or desired their
preservation.
The ancestral axman, with almost
wanton vigor, RACED to the ground the
sheltering timbers which formerly
evergreen and protected the ancient
tumuli and earthworks, thereby per-
hitting the elements to have full sway
in undermining and degrading count
less numbers of magnificent prehistoric
relics. Not here content, the enter
prising agriculturist has re1ecorated
the steep inclines with his golden
crops, and thus accelerated the erosion
and ultimate obliteration of these in

These engineering feats of our abort
gines of the east, which are so fast dis
appearing were apparently the out
growth of two utilitarian motives. One
seemed to be purely ceremonial and
