Russian Boat to Cross Atlantic In
Two Days.
London, June 1.-THE st. Peters
burg correspondent Of The Daily Mail
In a dispatch printed by that paper
again alludes to the Russian subma-
rine boat of which he telegraphed
some time ago, saying that 1t is being
constructed in the most secret man
ner at a French port, and that it will
be ready for trial in August. It is
claimed that the boat will be able to
cross the Atlantic in two days and a
half. The secret of its speed lies in
the peculiar construction Of its screw.

A decision to issue such statement
was reached Monday night when the
president read to the members Of the
cabinet his proposed statement. at
the same time personally pledging
each to secrecy until public announce
ment was made. The cabinet, on hear
ing the reasons the president ad-
vanced, which are substantially set
forth In the public announcement, that
talk of third term would react on
the national policies the administra-
tion is endeavoring to promote, coin
cided with the view of their chief that
the present was an opportune time for
Its PRONUNCIATION. The phraseology Of
the announcement was considered
further by the cabinet and after q
change or two from the original draft
Secretary Cortelyou was directed to
make It public. The presidents inti-
mate personal and political friends
later expressed themselves as
Not Surprised at the Decision
announced, but quite generally con.
ceded that they had not expected such
an announcement at this time, think.
ing that the president would not so
quickly take heed of the third term
gossip. They, said, however. that they
believed that the president had shown
his quick and excellent political judg.
ment by crushing the third term move
ment In its-very birth.
The text of the statement is as fol-
lows:
81 regret that the suggestion Of a
third term has been made. l doubt
whether i am called upon to give 1t
notice. But there are now questions
Of the gravest Importance before the
administration and the country and
their just consideration should not be
prejudiced in the public mind by even
the suspicion of thought of third
term. In view. therefore, Of the reit-
Grafton of the suggestion of it, will
say now, once and for all, expressing
4 long-settled conviction, that not
only am not and will not be candi-
date for third term, but would not
accept a nomination for it, II 1t were
rendered me.
my only ambition is to serve
through my second term to the ac-
ceptance Of my countrymen, whose
generous confidence SO deeply appre.
ciate, and then with them to do my

Army HCrses' Confectionery.

Hay lozenges are the popular confec-
tionery among army horses in the
Philippines and South Africa, says the
Youth Companion. The food, or rath-
err the form of it, is a Yankee inven-
ton. called into existence by the cir
cumstance of war in a country lacking
good roads. Hay put up in the ordi-
nary bale cannot be transported on
horse back, because of its weight and
bulk. 1t is therefore compressed by
powerful machinery into disks a foot
or eighteen inches in diameter and
two inches thick. The disks are pack
ed into rolls, like the loZenges the
train boys sell, and hung in sings from
the horses back. one on each side. A
single lozenge, when broken up and
opened out, makes a meal for a horse
or mule. and will cure him of that hun
CRY feeling as quickly as a mangerful
of fresh hay. The compactness of the
new bale also means a great saving in
freight.

HUSBAND RETURNED.
A Drama From Real Life Is
Enacted at Grand Rapids,
Michigan.

| A special to the Detroit Free Press
from Grand Rapids says:
1t has been generally accepted for
the past quarter OF century that Mrs.
Limbert, the aged mother of Charles
,, Limbert was a widow. Recently the
aged lady was stricken with paralysis,
and about two weeks ago, while very
Mw, she began to call for her husband,
asking to see him, but for a few min
utes.
One week ago an aged stranger drove
up to the house and asked Miss Clara
Limbert, who is the constant compar-
ion of her invalid mother, if be might
see Mrs. Limbert. Miss Limbert re-
fused on account of her mothers i'll
ness.
"Are you Clara ?" asked the old
gentleman.
"Yes." was the answer.
II am your father" he said, with a
sob, and he was ushered in when Miss
Limbert had recovered from the first
shock. The old man WAS greatly ag-
itated and sank in faint into chair
but revived, and after consultations
with the physicians was permitted to
see his wife. The recognition was in
Simultaneous, and as the two embraced
the household withdrew. The door
was shortly showed open and, ashy
white, the father staggered into the
hall and sought the arms of the nurses
as props.
Friday he died and Saturday with
the greatest secrecy he was buried in
country cemetery nearly ten miles out
of town. There was no coffin used, but
the children insisted on reviving an
old Indian idea of wrapping the body
in rich linen and rolling it in beauti
full shawl and then resting it upon a
frame with handles.
Before he died pthe venerable
man said he was ranch owner with
property in Colorado. and on his per-
son was found large amount of cur
rency and some valuable papers. The
funeral was conducted so quietly that
the mother still believes the father
lives, and is in the room opposite her
own i'll.

his sides bulged. 1t was an ominous

While the fight was on, the other two

With Washington, Arrested.

After haying seen the beginning and
end of four wars Annie Strawberry,
l05 years old. was arrested last week
in Philadelphia, charged with va
grancy. The old woman is bent with
age and has full grown beard and
moustache, was found by the police
man seated on doorstep at Eleventh
and cambridge streets smoking a
pipe.
The old woman was too feeble to
walk and the patrol was summoned to
take her to the station house. Here
she told the house sergeant that she
had lived with her son, until about a
month ago when he died add since that
time she has been wandering around
and sleeping in doorways.
She told the police of her memories
of the war of 1912 and the Mexican
war. At the outbreak of hostilities
with the south she escaped from
Charleston, S. c., where she was held
as slave. She came north with her
son and never learned what became of
her husband.
She says she has shaken hands with
Washington. Although too Young to
it, she says her father once
worked for him and visited him just
before his death in 1899.
