Special Dispatch to the Standard.

Tacoma, WASH. Nov 22.-E Fl.
Harding of Glendive, Mont, asked the
police of Tacoma and Seattle last night
to assist him to find his missing wife.
who he believes eloped with Lou Chaps
pelle, rich I<tcndiker. and is now on
the City OF Topeka on her way to
Skaguay. Mrs. Harding is alleged to
have taken 500 and a gold watch and
chain from her husbands apartments
at town hotel. Acting Chief OF
Police Willard wired to Victoria last
night asking the police to intercept
the couple. but this morning received
telegram stating that the Topeka
does not stop at Victoria.
Harding is 25 years older than HIS
wife and has been in ill health for the
past two years. He came to the sound
two months ago in the hope of findinE
the climate more favorable to his ail-i
ments.
Mrs. Harding left behind her g.
year-old son. who spent the greater
part of last night crying for his mann
ma.
The Hardings had been at the hoteI
but two weeks when Chappelle put int
an appearance. He is said to have
captivated Mrs. Harding almost at
first sight He is 4l years old and iH
said to have once kept a saloon ah
Pennington. this state. After Chap-
pelle had been here a few weeks ha
went to Portland, where, it is claim
ed. he has wife. and family. Returns
ing last week. he again sought the
company of pretty Mrs. Harding.
When Mrs Harding left the hotel
in the morning she told her husband
that she was going to the dentists.
That Individual, when questioned, told
Mr.. Harding that his wife had not
been there. The dentist further stated
that some days ago Mrs. Harding had
told him she intended going to Alaska y
This was news to Mr.. Harding. Sud-
denly it flashed across his mind that
his wife had been very friendly with
Chappelle, who was going away that
day. He went down to the Pacific
Coast Steamship conlpany's Office and
there ascertained that Chappelle had
gone and that in his company was al
woman whose description corresponds
ed to. that of Mrs Harding. Satisfied
that something was wrong, Mr. Hard
ing Went back TO his room and made
a search for his cash and valua bles.
He claims he discovered that $10o and
his watch and chain were gone.
What lends an extraordinary favor
of romance TO the story is the rumor
that Mrs. Harding is the daughter OF
an old friend Of her husbands. It is
claimed that this friend, at his death,
left his daughter in Harding's care.
The latter is said to have directed her
education and then married her.

raw material. 1t also does away with
the system of imprisonment under tha
present law to one Of fines, making tha
corporation and not the individual res
sponsibie and liable to prosecution.

The Ideal Physician.
N the Philadelphia Medical, Journal.


The attitude of the tr,4e physician has
been most admirably deiineated by the
master hand of that ifinetr exemplar Of his
profession, DR.. Osler.qfn an address deliv-
cred short while ago to the students of
Albany Medical College. i"Be careful" he
said, when you get into practice to culti
vate equally well your hearts and your
heads. There is strong feeling abroad
that we doctors are, given nowadays
to science. that we care much more for the
for the Individual T. don't believe it. but,
at any rate whether therelis that tendency
tice in the future fb care more par
ticularly for the Individual patient than for
the special features Of the disease.
Il am sure all of you must feel even
those Of you who have only been a single
term In the professional work, that you
have entered upon profession that APP
peals both to the heart and to the head.
Dealing as We do with poor. suffering hui
to all the frailties and weaknesses, and you
have got to keep your heart pretty soft and
pretty tender not to get too great con-
tempt for your fellow creatures. The best
way to do that Is to keep a looking glass
In your own hearts, and the more carefully
you scan your own frailties the more ten
der you are for the frai1ties Of your fellow
creatures"
The beauty and the fragrance of the SEN
tfments thus enunciated reside not alone
In their mode of expression, but in far
greater degree in their sincerity and in
their reality; for we suspect that they I'M
consciously reflect looking glass picture
OF the character Of the man that gave
them utterance.

any opinion of this kind. On the contrary,

s1on by decree of the court, of the offend

You may possibly have reference to a
letter or mine to a private citizen, published
several months ago in the newspapers
wherein l called attention to the fact that
the only jurisdiction that Congress has
over combinations or contracts in restraint
of trade was in relation to those which
directly affected Interstate commerce. That
this Is true, and that this is the full extent
OF the sherman trust act you Will aScer-
tam by reading the decision of the United

You are doubtless aware that it is not
the right or function of the federal govern
ment to interfere with business transact

except upon some ground expressly author
lied by the Constitution. Congress can
regulate directly that which We under
stand by interstate commerCe.' but it has
no power to regulate or control business
or commerce carried on wholly within the
limits of state
Il have called your attention to these
matters not because I assume that you are
ignorant of them, for you doubtless under
stand them we'll, but only in order to ex-
plain to you that I have not given, and
could not possibly have given, any opinion
of the purport expressed in your letter"
