10 FOUR HUNDRED BANQUETERS
Diplomacy His Subject-Says v. S. io
Very Frank in Her Diplomatic Re-
iations-Other. Powers Show Same
Spirit Toward Us.

New York, Nov. 20.--Before the
large concourse gathered at the cham
Der of commerce annual dinner, held
here last night, Secretary Hay spoke
at some length relative to American
diplomacy. which is given in part in
the following:
Il am asked to say something about
our diplomacy. l can say without hes
itation that We have generally told
squarely what we wanted, announced
early in negotiation what we were
willing to give, and allowed the other
side to accept or reject our terms.
During the time in which | have been
prominently concerned in our foreign
relations, | can also say that we have
been met by the representatives Of
other powers in the same spirit Of
frankness and sincerity.
LAS to the measure of success which
our recent diplomacy has met with, it
is difficult, If not impossible, for me to
speak.
I'VE have kept always in view the
fact that We are pre-eminently a
peace-loying people; that our normal
activities are in the direction of trade
and commerce; that the vast develop
ment Of our industries imperatively
demands that we shall not only retain
and confirm our hold on our present
markets, but seek constantly, by all
honorable means, to extend our COM
mercial interests in every practicable
direction. 1t is for this reason we
have negotiated the treaties of reci-
procity which now await action of the
senate; all of them conceived in the
traditional American spirit of protec-
ton to our own industries, and yet mu-
tually advantageous to ourselves and
our neighbors.
"We consider our interests in the
Pacific ocean as great now as those
of any other power and destined to in.
definite development. Next in order
will come a Pacific cable and an 18TH
milan canal for the use of all well-dis-
posed peoples, but under exclusive
American ownership and American
control
1--WE frankly confess we seek the
friendship of all the powers; we want
to trade with all peoples; we are con-
scious of resources that viii make our
commerce a source of advantage to
them and of profit to ourselves. But
no wantonness of strength will ever
induce us to drive hard bargain with
another nation because it is weak. nor
will any fear of ignoble criticism
tempt us to insult or defy a great pow
er because it is strong, or even be-
cause it is friendly"

VINCENT Is WARDEN
Alonzo Vincent, of st. Joseph, the
Lucky Candidate. -.
TWENTY DELEGATES HELPED
Northrup and Hatch, the Defeated Can
didates, Were Well Supported, But
the Governors Ballots Went For
Vincent.

Lansing, Mich, Nov. 20-Alonzo
Vincent of st. Joseph will succeed the
late William Chamberlain as warden
of Jackson prison. This result was
reached late yesterday afternoon after
the full prison board, including Gov
ernor Bliss, had considered the mat
ter in executive session for nearly
two hours.
For an hour or more preceding this
executive session the several candi-
dates and their friends were given
hearings. The Vincent men led off
with a delegation of nearly 20 in
charge Of Victor M. Gore OF Benton
Harbor. Brief speeches in behalf of
Congressman Hamilton, l.. c.. Fyfe
and Judge Thomas O'Hara of ST.
Joseph and ex-senator w. W. Potter

Deputy Warden Northrup followed,
with ex-senator John S.. Sharp as his
chief sponsor, and ex-Warden Hatch
closed the engagement, having Assist

Demay and Joseph Wenhold Of Jack
son as his hackers.
1t is understood that on the first bal
lot Gov. Bliss voted for Vincent, Mr..
Quinn for Hatch, and Messrs Bills and
Holmes for Northrup. Very soon
thereafter, Mr.. Quinn joined Gov. Bliss
in his support of Vincent, and the mat
ter stood in that shape until after a
short recess Messrs. Bills and Holmes
made the selection of Vincent unani-

Ants as Mushroom Growers.

The growing of mushrooms" fol-
food by species of ants is interest
ingly deserted in the American Natur-
-.alist by Prof. w. NJ. Wheeler. The
ants first cut leaves into small pieces
and carry them into their under
ground chambers, where they are re-
duced to a pulp and deposited in a
heap. In this heap the mycelium of a
species of fungus finds lodging, and
the subterranean conditions favoring
such a result minute swellings are
produced on the vegetable mass.
constitute almost the sole food Of the
colony of ants that cultivates them.

number of deaths from consumption.
The country is thoroughly aroused to the
need of doing something to stop the
ravages Of the deadly germ of this dis
ease. Several states have made liberal
appropriations for sanitariums in favor
able climates. The medical skill of the
world is enlisted to fight consumption.
Yet in spite of all that is done, the dis
ease seems to gain ground instead of
losing it.
THE FORCE or HABIT
is strong with us. We are so accustomed
TO the world wide prevalence of con-
sumption that we accept 1t practically as
a necessary evil. If some strange dis
ease were e break out, and destroy
human life to the same extent as does
consumption, such disease would be
looked upon as an appalling plague.
Quarantine would be established against
It, and days Of fasting and prayer ap-
pointed by the churches for the initiga-
ton of the disease. But we accept con-
sumption as inevitable because of its
familiarity.
How true this is may be judged from a
recent report of Sanitary Officer Gorgas,
of Havana, Cuba. 1t has been cabled to
the United States that yellow fever was
epidemic in Havana. DIR. Gorgas an
swered that there is no epidemic. He
says: vIn the past month there were
~ deaths from consumption and So from
yellow fever. Yellow fever therefore
should not be considered epidemic more
than consumption
What light that throws on our accept
ance of consumption A scare cry. is
raised that yellow fever is epidemic be-
cause of 81 deaths in one month. Not a
word was said as to consumption which
in the same month claimed u victims, or
over ASH more than died of yellow fever.
The great question is: Why is con-

A BOLD DEED.

st. Joseph. Mich, Nov. 19.-Deputy
State Game Warden Brewster made a
raid on fishing tugs off Michigan City
yesterday afternoon, which resulted in
the ramming of several fish tugs by
the big tug Dornbos, which Brewster
had hired for the occasion. He chased
the tugs for fishing out OF season, as
the legal time for fishing does not
open until Dec. Is.
Six tugs were overhauled near
Michigan City. Three of them COM
prised Booths Michigan City fleet.
wards, Sir Arthur and Ferry of this
port. When they sighted the game
warden's boat they Immediately
dropped their nets, cut the lines and
started for shelter.
When the game warden's big tug
overlook the Frank Edwards, she was
under a full head of steam and
rammed the smaller tug violently in
the stern, smashing several stanch-
ions and guard rail. The little boat
put on a full head Of steam and at
tempted to escape. The Dornbos again
took up the pursuit and succeeded in
heading the smaller craft off. Again
she rammed the Edwards, tn.s time in
the bow, and the smaller craft ca
reenea violently and was in danger OF
capsiZing.
Game Warden BREWSTER appeared
on the deck and commanded the sur
render of the boat. He wore a belt
containing several reyolvers and car
ried Ratchet in his brace. Captain
Mollhagcn surrendered the Frank Ed
wards, and she was boarded and
searched. Sixteen nets and 1000
pounds of lake herring were removed.
The tug was then ordered to proceed
to ST. Joseph.
In the meantime the Sir Arthur es-
capped, but the Bertha Cookie of the
Booth Packing Co. was overtaken and
sent to St. Joseph. The Ferry of this
place In turn surrendered. The two
other Booth tugs escaped.
The Michigan state law provides a
closed season on all fishing from Nov.
Is to Dec. Is, and for the past five
seasons the ST. Joseph fishing tugs
have journeyed to Michigan City and
fished in Indiana waters. Indiana has
no such fish law, and has frontage of
eight miles on Lake Michigan. 1t has
been known fact for many years that
tugs have broken this rule and have
returned to their own fishing grounds,
several miles south of this port. 1t
was learned last night from Captain
Verdien of the tug Dornbos that, ac-
cording TO charts in his possession,
the tugs were fishing Is miles this side
of the Indiana line in Michigan wa.

In DEADLY PERIL.
The Narrow Path of Safety.

The Alpine tourist who finds himself
suddenly clinging with feet and fingers
to shelf of slippery rock overhanging a
dizzy precipice, understands in very
literal sense the full meaning of the
words, uThere is but step between me
and DEATH" His peril is so tragic in all
its circumstances, so wild in its mountain
setting, that the heart almost stands still
at the thought of it.
But as a matter of fact every man
walks the world with his life in his
hands, and the path of safety is narrow
for his feet

which we live is found in the alarming

The Ideal Motor Vehicle.

Everybody recognizes that the desi-
deratum in motor vehicle is that it
shall combine simplicity and dura bility
with cheapness. Public favor is not
won by complicated, heavy and cum
bersome machinery that is liable at
any moment to get out of order. On
the contrary it is demand of Amer
leans that an acceptable automobile
shall be reasonably light and durable.
They want a machine that will last,
and one that will be cheap enough to
allow of its purchase by the class of
people who to-day content themselves
with horse and buggy.

sumption so widespread1 The answer Is
found in the general neglect of diseases
which if neglected or unskilfully treated
find fatal termination in consumption.
THE GERM OF CONSUMPTION IS EN-
TIRELY HARMLESS
when the lungs are healthy. In con-
dition of health these germs are received
with impunity. 1t is only when the lungs
are vweak" that the germ is dangerous.
For this reason the real danger to be
guarded against is the incipient weak
ness of the lungs, the severe cold, the
deep cough, and other affections of the
organs of respiration. These diseases
can be cured perfectly and permanently
by the use of DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery.
