LITTLE SLOOP'S VOYAGE.
Craft SAILED b. Capt. sicsun Covers
$1,000 Miles In Three Years
and Two MOntiis.

The sloop Spray, In which the owner
and captain, Joshua Slocnn, has sailed
TO almost every part OF the world, has
arrived at New York. -
e In, the winter of 1892 an old vessel
was given Capt. Slocum, and he built
the Spray from material taken from
the vessel. He sailed April "a, 1898,
from Boston for a voyage around the
world. He was not accompanied by
even a cat or dog. He encountered
high seas, head winds and gales, but
finally arrived at the Azores, IS days
from Cape Sable. He set sail from
Horta July "A and from Gibraltar Au-
gust rs. He touched at the Canary is
lands, the Cape Verde islands aud inal-
ly reached Pernambuco. The Spray
went ashore on the coast of Uruguay,
but was gotten off with little injury.
He was caught In gale rounding Cape
Horn, sighted the Marquesas, and was
without a port for ~ days.
At the islands OF Samoa he was re-
ceived by King Malietoa and afterward
went to Australia and Trinidad. He
sailed for home and arrived at Newport
on June 81, 1898, after a cruise of more
than $4,000 miles. He was absent three
years and two months.

AUTOMOBILE STAGE COACHES.
Hors~Iess Carriages TO Carry Mail
and Passengers Over Mountain
Roads of idaho,

An automobile stage line will soon
be in operation in Idaho, and II 1t
stands. the test of time at least one
other will be started. says the Chicago
Tribune.
E. A. Readicker, who operates .
stage line between Challis and Salmon
City and another between Dubois and
Ellis, recently purchased an automo-
bile in New York and has been ex-
perimenting with it. He has en-
ployed it already in carrying mail
and intends to buy others to carry
both mail apd passengers II the first
doesgnot break down every now and
then in some lonely spot miles from
where it can be repaired.
The. trial runs have been made be-
tween Dubois and Ellis. a distance
of $50 miles. The road runs through
sand and dust, over hills and through
the heart of the Salmon River noun
tain. The automobile plowed through
the sand, climbed the hills, and sped
over the level places without mis-
hap at an average of ten miles an
hour.
The vehicle used for the expert
ments is single-seated and IL fitted
below with frame for carrying
mail. Gasoline furnishes the driving
power.
There are many difficulties to over
come before automobiles can be en-
tirely successful on the mountain
roads. Sharp rocks are apt to pune
ture the pneumatic tires, and 1t takes
a tremendous driving power to get
over some of the roads. Moreover,
there are portions of Idaho in the
mountains which are many miles
from a habitation. If the power
should give out in one of these spots
the pilgrimage of rs miles or so to
a house and the wait Of day or days
for relief would be far from cheer
full to the passengers.

THERE MAY BE NEW CAPITAL.
Psstns. II Ii Thought. Can Nsvss
Again Be Residence of rorsixa
AmbaAsadors.

The prediction il already made In
certain highly influential quarters
that none OF the civilized powers OF
the world will ever again send am
oassaoors to Picking. The situation
Is nov far enough advanced to make
1t plain that if the Chinese empire Is
to maintain it's integrity it must be
at the cost of such concessions to
other nations as shall form absolute
guarantees against outrageous and
sudden treachery on the part of the
Chinese government. There are very
few guarantees that China can give
which the rest of the world would
accept as worth anything, but first
among these is the removal Of the
capital to point where the powers
holding diplomatic relations with
China can reach and protect their
representatives readily and effective
~. They cannot take the chances
again of siege of the legations in the
interior of China
The essential condition is that the
capital of China shall be within reach
OF the naval forces Of other nations.
This would be hard and intolerabls
condition to exact of power holding
equality in the international family.
But China is not such a power and
cannot be treated as such. She will
have to accept the position in which
her late eccentricity has placed her
and yield to the demands for security
exacted by those with which she as
sociates.
There ought to be no difficulty In
arranging this transfer of the seat
of government. Marking the ancient
capital OF the Middle Kingdom" or
China proper, would be entirely salts
factory. But Picking. which only by
good fortune has been taken by the
allies after long and arduous milf
tary expedition, and which might not
have been taken at all II the Chinese
had been prompt in flooding the sur
rounding country, can never again
be the residence and trap of foreign
ambassadors.

Elk. Mt spok.pe.

I y s
Plans for the big street fair and jubi-
lee, which Spokane Elks are to hold in
connection with the Spokane Interstate
Fair, are rapidly being completed. The
Elks have secured the old fruit fair
site in the rear Of the'Auditorium block
and will have large tented and en-
closed space. The main tent which has
seating capacity for 10000 people will
contain the principal entertainment
feature-the Royal Italian Band. This
is the recognized Royal Marine Band OF
last year, larger and better. The Inter-
state Fair will run in the day time and
the Elks will hold forth at night. Both
commence on the same date, but the
Elks continue three days after the fair
has closed.
The street fair will differ from any
other event of the fair kind ever held
in Spokane. A speciality will be made
of industrial exhibits. In connection
will be a Midway Plaisance, similar to
those that were seen at Chicago and
Omaha and is now prominent part of
the Pan-American Exposition. In this
Midway will be German village, an
Algerian village, Streets of Cairo and
Mexican village and theater. Arabs,
Turks, Mexicans and representatives of
other countries will be seen in exhibit
| lions of their national dances, sports
| and customs. This Midway will prob
ably continue the first week of the fair
and jubilee, when it will give way to
complete change of program lasting
until the end.
After the Midway has been aban-
doned, it is proposed to hold most of
the entertainment in the large tent
This will be arranged hippodrome fash
ion with the Royal italian Band in the
center and reserved seat section on
both sides. This will leave space for a
large ring inside the quarter poles of
the tent. Inside this ring will be held
military tournaments with both infan-
try and cavalary drills, athletic sports
rock-drilling contests and many other
things. One of the main events to-
wards the close will be an amateur cir
Gus given entirely by the Elks.
A strong committee of business men
has taken hold of the matter of street
illumination and they have promised
that the city will present true carni-
val appearance SO far as electric light
ing ingenuity and the best of artists
| can make it.
Spokane Blks have just completed a
100000 temple and the dedication of
that will be one of the features of the
jubilee. Prominent members of the or
| der from the east will be on hand to
assist in the dedication. No less than
200 new members will be initiated and
there will be social sessions, parades,
banquets and a grand ball.

FORTUNE PHASES.
THE UPS AND DOWNS IN THE
LIFE OF A CLERK.
A Tale Of Misfortune and Misery with n
Happy Ending--The World Seemed
All Very Dark for While.


A clerks life, ordinarily, is very
humdrum one with but very little
variety to the daily routine. But
Mr.. Fred r. Morton of No. 80 Vesper
street, Portland Me-, had an expert
ence recently which has made his life
now very happy one. In telling u
reporter of what he went through he
said:
81 had been suffering with stomach
trouble for about two years. Every
day about ten O'Clock in the morning
and three O'Clock in the afternoon l
became faint and felt SO bad that if l
did not sit down ! would fall. That
sensation usually lasted for about an
hour and when noon came had no
appetite for lunch.
II saw DR. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People advertised in the daily
papers about year ago and decided
to try them. / felt relief from the
first box and after had taken six
boxes my disease was cured. / do not
take them now but always keep them
in the house. l have told my friends
what these pills have done for me and
should / know of any ones being sick
as l was / should recommend DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People. !"
Mr.. Morton's statement was pub
lished in the Portland Express after
he had sworn to it before Marshall III.
burlington, a notary public.
The most effective remedy in the
world in cases Of this kind is DR.. Will
liams Pink Pills for Pale People.
They act directly on the blood and
nerves. This makes them invaluable
not only for stomach trouble but also
for such diseases as locomotor ataxia,
partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance,
sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism,
nervous headache, the after effects
of the grip, palpitation of the heart,
pale and sallow compilations and all
forms of weakness either in male or
