OF COURSE IT is HASKINs.

While Haskins and Read were both in
the field the danger for both was that
a divided support IN their own county
would be made the excuse for passing both
by. But now Col Haskins can depend on
a solid delegation from Windham county
back Of him. Windsor and Orange and
Essex counties ought naturally, with the
help he will have from legislative friends,
to be good ground for his cause. In fact
the way is remarkably clear tor him, while
both his oppon ent, have some serious ob>ta-
Giles at home. Plumley in Washington
county has to face the fact that ex Gov.
Dillingham; is at er Morrill's seat in the
senate and that both the places wont be
allowed to 60 to that county. Stafford OF
St. Johnsbury meets Gen. CIRCUITS candi-
dacy in the same way, and perhaps that OF
Prouty, in nearby territory, and also that
of Bates for the governorship and perhaps
that OF Judge Ross for a continuance IN
his present berth. Besides, the fact that
he has not always been " straight repub-
lican" will count against him in conven-
ton struggle.
The only apparent factor against Has
kins is that it would be natural tor Grout
to like to put a candidate for the house
into Washington county and for Dilling-
ham likewise to put one into CIRCUITS terri
tory. But complications of this kind are
likely to offset each other largely, and
work to the net advantage of Haskins and
leave the outcome Dillingham; for the SEN
ate and Haskins for the house. This is
not only the most probable but the best
outcome.
Altogether, the prospect is coed that

CHICAGO, Aug. 13-One hundred thou
sand German-American citizens partici-
pated to-day in the celebration incident to
the opening of the fourteenth annual con-
vention OF the Kriegerbund and the twen-
ty-fith annual reunion in America of the
Deutscher Kriegerverein. The former in
cludes veterans of the German army and
the latter veterans of the Franco-Prussian
war. The day signaiZed the opening of the
conventions and the paying of tributes by
possible the present greatness of the Ger
man empire.
The pageant was large and imposing The
cordial relations between the German
Americans and their fellow-countrymen
was made manifest in the enthusiastic
cheering that greeted on every hand the
two young women who represented Column
bia and Germania. and in the singing by
a multitude at Sharpshooters Park of Ger
man and American national anthems. The
day began with the arrival of trains bear
ing delegations from all parts of the coun-
try. As each train slowed up al the depots
committees stepped forward TO welcome the
visitors. IL was not formal reception OF
strangers but a reunion OF old friends
Many of the arrivals were recognized by
members Of the committees as former mess
mates on the battlefield and the welcome
extended was hearty one.
Among the visitors were vereins from st

$500 people filled the grand stand and
bleachers to witness the final game with
the league leaders on the home grounds.
"Rube" Waddell performed on the slab for
the home team and there was not a mo-
ment in the game that the Indians had any
show to win. He not only had them UP in
the air at bat, but fielded his position in
fast style, making two plays of sensa-
tional order. One of these came in the
fourth. when Mcfarland sent a slow one to
Bierbauer and beat 1t out to first. In his
hurry Bierbauer threw wild to Tebeau. but
Waddell exhibited remarkable nimbleness in
backing up first. He stopped the ball with
his foot and with a lightning throw cut off
Mcfarland at second. In the fifth. when
Kellum bunted one close to the right foul
line, good for safe hit nine times out of
ten, Waddell's agility came in play and his
throw nearly set Tebeau off his feet. Kel-
lum proved a comparatively easy mark for
the Prodigals, who punched hits on him in
the first and fifth. Both twirlers received
excellent support, Genins, Bierbauer and

which, with sacrifice and a wild throw by
Kellum to second base, allowed the locals
five runs. A hit by pitcher. a sacrifice and
a single permitted Pickering to score in the
second. In the fifth three.clean singles and
Buelow's three-bagger netted three runs.

Police Sergeant Lowe and the bicycle po-

Gregg strike Oscar Sholtz and knock him

Lowe ran out and tried to catch Gregg, but
he ran. Lowe then borrowed a bicycle
from a bystander and gave chase, but Gregg
had a good start and ran down among the
railway tracks Gregg was some distance
ahead and had a good chance 10 get away
had it not been for the bicycle police, who
were also in pursuit. Patrolman Bray, who
was in the front part Of the building, start

In reply to the statement of DR.. Rilus

I wish to say that in a letter written to
DR.. Thomas by DR.. Joseph Eastman the
following Language occurs: Factions occur

running the college Not in a spirit of per-

In this paragraph of his letter DR.. East
man boasts that he has forced members of
the faculty to resign. and expresses uncer-
tainty to his future course
The student Suby has a diploma issued by
pharmaceutical college in the year 1898 If
this diploma had been issued in 1896 IL would
course in the Central College. This diploma
was presented to the college as part of his
credentials. The dates had been altered
from 1898 to 1896 to make it available.
don't know who altered this diploma but
Mr.. Suby and the Eastmans wanted the
faculty TO accept ii as part Of his creden-
IlalS.
The fostering care that DR.. Eastman has
exercised toward members of the faculty
has two sides to it., If any one deserves
credit for being founders of the Central Col
lege DR.. Raymond and DR.. Haughton de-
serve that credit. DR.. Raymond is dead and
DR.. Haughton was driven out OF the faculty
by one of the raids after microbes.
DR.. Eastman never acquired stock by pay-
ing professors assessments. In 1891 a rro-
fessor purchased 155 shares of stock of the
stock company. and, falling TO pay for IL
DR.. T. B. Eastman paid for and acquired
this stock. Altogether they have paid into
the stock company for 80 shares of stock
All Of the other stock held by the family
has been purchased of the stockholders. and
to them the money has been paid not one
dollar OF which ever went into the treasury
of the stock company.
The records of the stock company show
that all votes taken by IL are by stock. The
faculty votes by membership and is purely
advisory In all matters except In recon-
Hendfng candidates for graduation. Soon
after the defeat in the Suby affair a ma
Jority of the stock passed into the hands of
the Eastman family. The fact that they
then had control, coupled with their dispo-
sition to rule. were the cause OF the recent
designations. II. w. THOMAS NJ ID.

STARVING ON ATT0U ISLAND.


SEATTLE. Wash, Aug. IA private let
ter from Capt. Slamm. of the revenue cut
ter Grant now with the sealing patrol In
the Bering sea, relates that the inhabitants
of Attou island, numbering twenty-three
men and fifty women and children, were
found by him in pitable condition from
cold and hunger. Many of the children were
partially naked and the women were but
little better off. The only fuel on the island
is scant supply OF dry wood. The Grant
furnished the inhabitants ration5 and CLOTH
ing. They have a good supply of fish. roots
and berries.
Attou island has in time past been famous
as a source of blue fox skins and fortunes
have been made in the traffic, but the trad
ers, and not the natives, have made the
money. The foxes have been all killed and
the population is diminishing The remand
er are quite contented with their lot and
cling TO the bleak, frozen island, which
hardly affords them means of sustenance
and which is often the scene OF furious
earthquakes and landslides.
While cruising in the Bering sea the Grant
had two objects in view: A search for any
posSible survivors of the lost steamer Peli-
can and the study OF ocean currents in Ber-
ing sea and vicinity. for which purpose
bottles were thrown overheard containing
instructions TO the finders TO forward them
10 Washington.
Ten sealing vessels were on the ground
when Capt. Slamm wrote and the arrival of
about ten more was expected.

Detecttve. Arrest Irene Wilson.

About o'clock yesterday afternoon De-
tectives Gerber and Morgan took to the
police station young woman who was
dressed In the finest OF attire. She was
once an inmate of a resort at 80 South
Senate avenue, and is charged with grand
larceny and receiving stolen goods. A few
days ago Mrs. Sherman, keeper OF the re,
sort, reported to the police that she had
been robbed of S175, which had undoubtedly
been taken by some one in the house. A
day or two later Irene Wilson, one OF the
inmates, left the house and went TO small
town near here. She returned TO the city
yesterday on her way to Cincinnati and was
taken from a Big Four train by the detec-
tives. She admits being connected with the
robbery, but says a man whom she was TO
meet at Columbus. o.. to-day took the
money and gave her part OF 1t, with which
she purchased two tailor-made suits.

was held yesterday morning at 3 O'Clock
from her late home, Whittier place, irving

to be up, although Mr.. Baldwin's sight was
imperfect, from the dilation of his pupils,
while an old injury to his right leg was
aggravated by the workings of the poison.
James, the son, was still too weak to walk
much, but went to Crown Hill with the
rest Of the family and friends. The funeral
services were conducted by Rev. Lawrence
Jones, of the Irvington NJ. =. Church, who
