Cooper & Co. spend $500, 900 a yeaI
or nearly 81, 600 day for this pur.

failure if they had to spend So pei

wonder that the mail order bushes;
is hurting the country merchant:

Not a bit, when besides refusing
to advertise in their home paper
they send away for their job print
ing because they save a few centS

liable for the merchant to send
away from home it certainly must
be to his customer What is GOOD

To Test Water.

All drinking water should be test
ed in town or country frequently.
Every cistern Of water is liable to be
a source of blood poisoning Mice,
rats, and many other pests must
have water, and many case of ty-
phoid is set up by such as these fall
ing into the cistern and remalng
there for months in a decomposed
state.
To detect this impure condition
is very simple and unfailng, Draw
tumbler Of water from the tap at
night, put a piece of white sugar
into it, and place it on the kitchen
mantle, shelf or anywhere that the
temperature will not be5pnder sixty
degrees Fahrenheit.
In the morning the water, if pure
will be perfectly clear, if contami-
mated by sewage or other impuri-
ties, it will be milky.
This is a simple and safe test, well
known in chemistry. Exchange

WANTS NAVAL STATION.
Why Britain Is So Anxious to Obtain
Control of a Harbor on the =
Northern Pacific Coast. s-/~

Congressman James Hamilton Lewis,
of the state of Washington, who was
in London during the consideration of
the Alaskan boundary question, rep
resenting the owners of property in the
disputed territory, has, arrived in New
York. 81 was informed by no less a
person than Sir Louis Davies" said Mr..
Lewis, that he had assured Mr.. Choate
that Canada would cede Skaguay and
Taiya absolutely without any claim, al
though they are within the disputed
territory, in return for Pyramid har-
Dor, the remainder of the dispute to
be decided upon the basis of the Ven
ezuelan arbitration
: ''This proposition was pending when
the temporary modus was agreed upon
at Washington.
"What Canada really wants is not a
commercial depot, but a naval station
like Esquimalt.
Great Britain foresees possible trou-
BILE with Russia over the division of
China and knows that she will have
to fight it out in the northern Pacific.
She realizes that trouble may arise
over the Canada. boundary at any time
that she might have a misunderstood
ing with us. She wants. a mastering
station on the Alaskan coast. Were she
to have war with us, now that we have
islands in the Pacific, she could come
out and attack us. That, I believe, is
the reason Canada would give up so
much to obtain a port there

: New York, Nov. rs. "A special to the
World from Washington says: Any
subscriber to the Dewey home fund
who wishes it may have his or her mon
ey back.
John L. Mclean, speaking for his
sister, Mrs. Dewey, said:
Mrs Dewey and the admiral have been
overwhelmed with not hundreds, but thou
sands of kilograms of sympathy for the
aft1iction which has befallen them in this
furious and thoughtless attack made upon
their domestic life Admiral Dewey's state
ment has had great effect to accomplish
this revulsion of sentiment.
Among the kilograms received was one
from Emerson Mcmillan, of New York, to
the effect that if any persons desired the
return of their subscriptions to the home
fund, IT the admiral would forward the
list of contributors to him, together with
any letters or dispatches requesting a re-
funding of the money, he, Mr.. Mcmillan,
would Immediately reimburse all appli-
cants in full. am authorized to say most
positively that all such requests will re-
ceive the promptest attention.

While telling his Companions Of the
money he expected in few DAYS
from one Of his Inventions, John
Rourke died the other night in his
chair in the Model lod dying house, Chi
cago.
For the last week Rourke, who was
go years old, had been without money,
and while allowed to sleep in the lodg-
ing house he had been unable to pur-
chase sufficient food, and had grown
weak and emaciated as result.
For years he had been at work on q
gas engine which he had invented, and
a patent had been applied for. He was
without means to perfect his models,
but recently through friends in On
tario he had succeeded in interesting
Frank P. McGrath, retired wealthy
manufacturer in Grand Rapids, Mich,
in his scheme, and from letters found
in his possession it was learned that
McGrath had agreed to advance all
the money necessary to perfect the
machine and place it on the market.
Sitting in the office of the lodging
house the old man was telling his
companions, less fortunate than HIM
self, of the turn the tide was about to
take in his favor, and how, in a few
days after he had received his first
installment, he would treat them all to
a good dinner, when his hands sudden
~ dropped to his sides, his head fell
forward on his breast and he was
dead.
Little is known of the old man by
any of his companions in the lodging
house. He had spend nearly all his
time working on drawings for his in
vention. -s..
He was Canadian and had confded
to Clerk Seymour, of the lodging
house, that he formerly had held e0-
cellent positions in the dominion, but
as to the reason for his leaving there
Or concerning. his life in Chicago he
had little to say. -. =
His body was removed to Rolston's
undertaking rooms, % Adams street,
where an inquest was held.
