The storms Of the past week have
wrought considerable havoc with the
shipping due In at this port. The trans
port Thyra that arrived in yesterday
morning reported sighting, on Sunday
morning, full-rigged British ship un-
der bare poles with one Of her sails
split into ribbons. The vessel was
loaded, but they could not make out her
letters. When sighted the vessel was
in 45.43 north 1922 west. On Monday
the Thyra sighted four-masted Ger
man bark In ballast, about twenty-five
miles west OF North Head at / O'Clock
D. m. Her signals displayed the let
ters "R. Y. w. w." and she is thought
to be the new German ship Otto cid
melster. She also seemed to be some-
what damaged by the storm.

simpson And Atwood Meeting


Jerry Simpson and John II. Atwood
held monster meeting at the auditor
ium on Wednesday night Of last week,
just too late 10 be reported In last
weefs paper. Jerry lead of with one
OF bis characteristic and catchy
speeches, In which he assalled the re-
cord of Congressman Long during the
last two years aud exhibited as much
interest In pancturlng hla boom as II
he himself had been his opponent In
this present campaign.
Atwood followed with what has been
characterized as a heart wringinR''
speech, In which he ASA led the re-
publican policy Of conquest aud "be'
nevolent assimilation" upon the high
moral ground that whatever the law or
the constitution Oh the subject, 1t Is
not right.
The crowd was large, all the avail
able seats being liIled, By using stand
log room more people could have heard
but not without. So it Is safe to say
that the auditorium was full, In fact
1t was as large a meeting as Stanley
had q few nights later and The republi,
cans had flooded the town with very
handsome invitations nicely printed,
Besides this they had the band ana
made a big display which the fusion
people were unable to do because of
the lack of funds.

RoRardue Gone,

/ B,Iardus, the rifle shot who was
here the entire week ending Saturday
was about the best campaign roueer
that has been in the county this
year, The crowds he attracted and
held were amazing, The night Stan
ley spoke he waited till the republicans
had got their crowd and gone before
he opened up and then he had as many
or more people to hear him than went
to hear the governor. His speeche s
were all good Bryan speeches and pc
culiarly adapted to the street crowds.
He told stories, and kept the crowds in
good humor, and at the same time
treated the republicans with respect.
In fact his statements of facts were SO
conservative that they could not &C
cuse him of lying or misrepresenting.
The farmers came in from the country
long distances the weather being good
the street meetings were successful be-
You'd expectation. He was making his
way by selling bis receipt books and was
no way connected with the populist or
democratic committees. He simply
made his speeches along the line of
Organism because he believed that
way.
His shooting was something that was
worth witnessing. His usual way Of
shooting was at glass ball thrown in
the air, but as with that kind Of shoot
ing the balls would fly in various di-
rections, and might do damage he did
not give any exhibition in that way,
but shot at potatoes and cans tied to u
plank, His shooting was by the light
of the gasoline burners which Of course
was poor lie first shot the potatoes
to pieces and then cut the strings by
which they we're hung; then he shot in
to a tin can. After the first shot he
announced that he would enlarge the
hole made by the bullet by shooting
into the edge Of the hole, This he did

the alarm but as it was about 9sByifn
O'Clock and dark they could not be
followed. However 1t was concluded
that they had gone south and most of
the searching party went in that direc-
tion. One went direct to Elmer think
ing they would try to board the train
at that place. AS he got off he saw
some Of them make break for the
train. He secured the assistance of
four young men Of the neighborhood
and searched along the track with the
result that one, oe Boke, was caught.
The others Harry Gray, Jackey, Brad

Jackey was almost ready forparole but

Enormous CITY Registration

The registration is now closed and
1t shows a surprising increase over all
preceding years, In 1896 the total reg
istration was 1926 This year the
books show 2,S42. This is a remark
able increase, However it is believed
to be- accounted for in part by the fact
that many voters who have moved from
one ward into another during the year
are registered twice. When Mr. Tn
derwood was clerk he had been in the
office so long that he usually inquired
whether the applicant had registered
in any other ward from which he
might have moved. But as we under

that remark he would have passed him

Broken Brio a E8raCS.

Mr.. Major the famous cement man of
New York, explains some very interest
ing facts about Majors Cement.
The multitudes whe use this standard
article know that it is many hundred per
cent better than other cements for which
similar claims are made, but a great
many do not know why. The simple
reason is that Mr., Major uses the best
materials ever discovered and other
manufacturers do not use them, because
they are too expensive and do not allow
large profits. Mr.. Major tells us that
one of the elements of his cement costs
1915 pound, and another costs $265 a
gallon, while large share OF the SO call
ed cements and liquid glue upon the
market are nothing more than sixteen
cent glue, dissolved IN water or citric
acid, and, in some cases. altered slightly
in color and odor by the addition of
cheap and useless materials.
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents
and twenty-five cents bottle, and when
a dealer tries to sell substitute you can
depend upon it that his only object is to
make larger profits.
The profit on Majors cement is as
much as any dealer ought to make on
any cement. And this is doubly true in
view of the fact that each dealer gets his
share of the benefit of Mr. Majors adj
vertising. which now amounts to over
$4,000 month throughout the country
Established in 1876.
Insist on having Majors. Do not &C
cept any off hand advice from druggist.
Ii you are at ali handy (and you will
be likely to find that you are good deal
more so than yon imagine) you can re-
pair your rubber boots and family shoes
and any other rubber and leather arti-
5es, with Majors Rubber Cement and
Majors Leather Cement.
And you will be surprised at how
many dollars year you will thus save.
If your druggist can't supply you, it
will be forwarded by mail; either kind.
