All. yes. The world keeps going on.
And people plan aud children play.
But some ones dearest hopes are gone,
And some ones heart is torn to-day!
A heavy silence fingers where
Gay laughter used to ring, AMI there
Are useless toys to put away.

Whose sinless heart shall know no

But all my grieycus tears shall be
For them. alone. that have to see

Besley's Waukegan Brewing Com pany.
1t Is with pleasure that we call the
attention Of the trade, and private fam
lilies, to the fact that owing to the in
creasing demand for bottled ale and
porter Of undoubted purity and Of ttJ
finest quality, we are now bottling Il Z
same under our own supervision.
The frequent use Of adulterants and
substitutes for malt and hops In the
manufacture Of malt liquors has re-
suited In IN inquiry for an article OF
domestic manufacture, wholly free
from anything Of a harmful or dcleteri-
Gus nature, and Mt o price that would
commend its use to all. The failure.
hitherto to obtain such an article has
led consumers to purchase imported
goods ut high price.
Therefore we IRE prepared to place
on the market bottled ole and porter
unexcelled In quality, equal in every
respect to the imported, Mt a much
lower price.
Our goods being manufactured from
the choicest barley malt and the best
hops in the market, no substitutes
whatever being used, and, being bottled
Ivy ourselves at Waukegan, enables us
to offer to our customers an absolute
guaranty Of their purity and quality.
Families can obtain these goods Of
all the leading fancy grocers, the prin-
cipal hotels, restaurants and druggists.

According to the Plans of the Naval Board It
Will Cost Over sig, 900. 900.


Washington, Nov. 5.-The major
ity report of the naval board, headed
by Rear Admiral Taylor, which has
prepared plans for the proposed new
naval station at Olonagpo, P. l.,
shows that the station will cost this
government $19, 359, 500, exclusive
of defensive works, signal station,
water supply, coal station, magazines
hospital, eneampment grounds and
native village under the control of
the naval authorities, which it is
proposed to provide for the workmen
who will be employed regularly at .he
Olongapo dockyard. The board re-
commends that in addition to the
four prominent points selected for
the defensive works by Admiral
Remey's board = SiIanguin Island,
at the entrance of Port Silanguin !;
the point on the west side of the
entrance to Subig bay; Grandee
Island, at the mid entrance, and Port
Ilian, on the east side of Subig bay
entrance-another fort be located to
protect the landing in Calaguaquin
bay on the west coast of Zambees
province, and that the mountain
passes leading to the naval res
ervation on the north and east be
fortified. The boards estimate for
equipping the station for efficient
work of repair and outfit of vessels,

ABUSED LATE PRESIDENT.
Naval Electrician Sentenced to One Years I'm.
prisonment.

Washington, Nov. 6.-''To be con-
fined one year in such place as the
secretary of war may direct, to do ex-
ira police duty during that time, to
lose all pay except 81 per month for
prison expenses, and the further sum
of 500 to be paid to him at the expir-
alton of this confinement and to be
dishonorably discharged from the SER
vice of the United States, is the sem
tence imposed by court martial upon
John s. Stoll, third class electrician
of the receiving ship Columbia, lying
at the New York navy yard, for foul
abuse of the late President Mckinley.
On the day of the late presidents
death, Stoll, in the company of a
number of sailors, is charged with
having declared, with an obscene
oath, that the president should have
been shot long ago and have added
other foul and profane expressions of
same tenor. He was arrested
promptly and tried by court martial,
with the result above announced, on
two charges-frst, conduct to the pre-
judice of good order and discipline j;
second, scandalous conduct, tending
to the destruction of good morals.
Stoll made vehement plea of inno-
cence, declaring that his language re-
ferred to the presidents assassin, but
the evidence of the bystanders and the
language itself was regarded by the
court as completely establishing his
guilt. He will be confined in the
prison ship at Norfolk.

WARMING TO ENGLAND.
South African War May Necessitate Higher
Rate of Taxation.

London, Nov. 6.-What is regarded
as an important announcement pre-
pairing the people of Great Britain for
new taxes and fresh loans was made
tonight by the chancellor of the ex-
chequer, Sir Michael Hicks Beach, in
a speech at Bristol. After alluding
to the enormous increase in the ordi-
nary expenditures of the government,
he reviewed the war taxes, and said
that the ever increasing demand of
the national exchequer gave reasons
for careful thought, and even anxiety,
for the future. 1.-THE cost of the war
in South Africa is enormous, said
Sir Michael. ssIt still drags. It
may be when next year comes, that I
may have to ask the people of this
country to bear even greater burdens,
and to make even greater sacrifices. !"
Sir Michael Hicks-Heach an

communicating with the authorities
in South Africa with view to a
change in the situation of the con-
centration camps and to an ameliora-
tion of their conditions.

PRESIDENTS PROCLAMATION.
Sets Apart Thursday, November 2S, as Day

7 > =
of National Thanksgiving.
Washington, Nov. q President
Roosevelt today issued his proclama-
tion fixing Thursday, November %,
as day of national thanksgiving. 1t
reads:
"A Proclamation. The season is
nigh when, according to the time
hallowed custom of our people. the
president appoints day as the espe-
cial occasion for praise and thanks
giving to God.
This Thanksgiving finds the peo-
pie still bowed with sorrow for the
death of great and good president.
We mourn for President Mckinley
because we loved and honored him,
and the manner of his death should
awaken in the breasts of our people
keen anxiety and resolute purpose
not to be driven by any calamity
from the path of strong, orderly, pop
ular liberty, which, as nation, we
have thus far safely trod.
"Yet, in spite of this great disaster,
it is nevertheless true that no people
on earth have such abundant cause
for thanksgiving as we have. The
past year, in particular, has been one
OF peace and plenty. We have pros
pered in things material, and have
been able to work for our own uplift-
ing in things intellectual and spirit
ual. Let us remember that, as much
las been given us, much will be ex-
pected from us; and that true honl-
age comes from the heart as we'll as
from the lips and shows itself in
deeds. We can best prove our thank
fulness to the Almighty, by the way
in which, on this earth, and at this
time, each of us does his duty to his
fellow men.
"Now, therefore, /, Theodore
Roosevelt, president of the United
States, do hereby designate as day
of general thanksgiving, Thursday,
the 28th of this present November,
and do recommend that throughout
