NICARAGUA CANAL.
Disagreement in Conference Commit
tee Upon the Measure.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-Twice
today have conferees on the rivers and
harbors bill got together, and yet
they are as far apart as to the Nicara-
qua canal as the two houses have been
since the beginning. The Senate fav-
ors the canal; the House opposes it.
The friends of the canal say if there is
no canal there will be no river and
harbor bill.
The outlook. according to views ex-
pressed tonight. is there will be a
compromise, as pressure for the re-
porting of the bill is very strong.

MORE OF THEM USED.

There are probably more Singer sew
ing machines used in the United States
than OF any other one make. This is a
very excellent guarantee that they are
one OF the very best machines. The
points OF merit are strength, durabil-
ity, easy running and simple construc-
ton. Very little mechanism to get out
of oyCer makes repair bills small.
When in need of a new sewing ma
chine examine the Singer before pur-
chasing airy other make. B. Berger

lutely clear sky, smooth sea- and
breeze from the southwest blowing
about eight knots an hour, with pros
poets of more to follow before the day
was over were the early conditions for
the second race off here between the
Columbia and Defender. The air had
snap and life In IL that was exhilarat-
ing. besides being so clear that Block
Island southeast light twenty miles
dead to windward could be plainly
seen through n good glass. Point Ju-
dith is.rther TO the westward. but near

while the bathers at Narragansett Pier,
just across the bay. about four miles
could almost be distinguished. The sea
was remarkably smooth for the Bren-
toms Reef lightship scarcely moved or
rocked, while scattered over the ocean
were two or three dozen fishermen in
cs-' boats plying their daily trade.
Quite a number of coasters were also
visible hung along the ocean highway
between Point Judith and Gay Head
far to the eastward. AS the morning
passed some dull low clouds appeared
in the west, which gave indications oi
more breeze, much TO the delight of the
yachtsmen.
The regatta Committee of the New
port Yacht Racing Association, under
whose auspices the races are sailed,
planned out four courses all triangular
for the various wind conditions.

STORIES TOLD OF MRS. SHAKESPEARE

Philadelphia, Aug. 2.-James II.
Shakespeare, once a brilliant and sue
cessful criminal lawyer. is dying OK
paresis in the Friends asylum, at
Frankford.
Shakespeare studied law with James
II. Heverin, a leader of the Philadel-
phia criminal bar, and became his part
ner. A singular fatality has pursued
the two men. Heverin was eloquent,
quickwitted. aggressive. indefatigable.
of splendid mental and bodily strength.
One day he was found in his office
stabbed In the eye. 1t was never known
how the wound was inflicted. Rumor
had it that an infuriated woman. per-
haps a client, perhaps someone with
whom Mr.. Hever'- was involved. had
seized pen from the lawyers desk
and thrust IL in his eye. After 1t his
mental powers and health rapidly
failed, he became an invalid, died.
Shakespeare had married Heverin's
daughter. After his father-in-law's
death he conducted, with eminent abil-
ity the large practice TO which he had
fallen heir. His wife died i'm 1885. He
tried To forget his grief in double en-
efgy in his profession.
Early in 1892 a beautiful woman went
to Mr.. Shakespeare as client. She was
an ABYSS. she said, Mrs. Nellie White
lock, a widow, born Nellie Rhineheart.
| in Richmond Va. Shakespeare fell in
| love with her To the surprise OF his
| friends he married again i'm April. 1892.
Mrs. Shakespeare is now in New
| York. She wishes that her place OF
| residence be not revealed for the time
| The widest stories have been told con-
| cerning her, even by her husband $
| closest friends; that she ruined his life
| that she blgamously married Sir
| Henry Onequi, a palmist. now in jail in
| England. that her husband, even then
| loving her, took her back 10 him. Mrs.
Shakespeare Indignantly denies these
| stories.
