of promise, her suit being unsuccess-
full.
The life OF Mrs. Raymond was one Of
many adventures, each of which, it
seemed. resulted disastrously. Through
her whole career ran vein of romance
and. though her affairs Of love were
few. she was disappointed in each and
the last determined her to seek release
from earthly care in the seclusion and
peace of the grave.

speaking of the battleship, 1 trust
that the citizens of the state will not
give II n silver service, that is, if they
follow the custom of the other states
for which naval vessels are named,
and give something. My objection to
silver service is that it is so valuable
that 1t must be kept either under lock
and key, hidden from the view of all ex-
cept chosen few, or else kept in a
show case down below where only a
few privileged can see it and where
the men on board can never see it.
Il am in favor of Il statue like that
on the Massachusetts. That, being on
the turret, in n prominent position, can
be seen by every man connected with
the ship and by all visitors. 1t stands
there an inspiration to the men as y
loving gift from the people of the great
state whose name the battleship bears.
1t is n constant remembrance TO the
men from the people of the state
massachusetts gave figure of lib
erty. and, while, of course, would not
suggest, it seems to me that 1t would
be pleasing if the people of Colorado
gave to the battleship heroic figure
of n miner, typifying the state. Min
Ing is the great industry of Colorado;
with the pick the hardy pioneers
opened the great wealth Of the state.
The miner stand for Colorado, brave,
adventurous, hardy, Industrious. Such
figure upon the battleship could not
but serve as an inspiration to the men.
1t would stand for the giant strength
of the state"
Secretary Long does not expect to
return to Colorado for some time, as
his daughter is much improved in
health and he has pressing business in
Washington.

GOMEZ REFUSES
 VICE PRESIDENCY
Writes Letter Saying He Can- not Accept Nomination of
 National Party

Havana, August t2.--General Maximo Gomez has addressed a letter to the local committee of the National party4 Ha- vana, who had chosen him as a candidate for the vice presidency The communica- tion run in part as follows:
 ''on hearing what the committee have done. hasten to say that must refuse to undertake such high office under tba republic. So far as candidates are con- cerned, I look upon Senor Estrada Palma and Senor Mayo as the best selections that could be made for the Presidency and Vice Presidency. Let all Cubans agree upon this important matter, and Cuba will have strong and stable government. entirely fitted to deal with the external relations in which Cuba will have to ex- ist as a republic
 A movement backed by number of the revolutionary generals was started some time ago to endeavor to make Senor Pal ma the unanimous choice of the people for the Presidency. Simultaneously over lures were made to Senor Mazo. with A view of persuading him to accept the Vice Presidency. It Is asserted. however, that thus far Senor Mazo has declined to fall in with this plan. as he relies upon the negro vote to elect him President

MI, Russell VIII Act in Case the Minister is Withdrawn

NO NEW DEVELOPMENTS
Navy Department Has Now Definitely Determined to Make Use of the Eattleshlp Iowa Instead of
 the Wisconsin.

Washington, August 12.-The state de- partment has authorized .he American charge d'affaires at Caracas, Venezuela, to use his good offices for Colombia in case the Colombian minister at the Ven ezuelan capital leaves that country.
 MT. Russell telegraphed last week seek ing information as to his course of &C., tion in case of the withdrawal of the Co., lombian minister. which apparently was in contemplation at that time. He did not, however, indicate that this with drawal was preliminary to any rupture between the two republics, but simply asked If he would be authorized to act temporarily in looking after colombia's interests in case of the withdrawal Of the minister
 The State Department has no informa~ tion as to whether the Colombian minister has withdrawn from Venezuela or wheth- CT MT. Russell is filling this temporary duty.
 There have been no additional develop ments in the situation in Panama, where the trouble Is far removed from that along the Venezuelan border
 Consul General Gudger's course in look ing after the interests of Colombia along the isthmus Is not in pursuance of any specific instructions from Washington. bur follows a procedure established some twelve years ago In connection with points at which the Chinese were entirely without official representation
