SESCAPADE
HE IS TO BE COURT MARTIALED
He TelegrRphed His Resignation, but
II Was Not Accepted-An Actress
i'm the Casc-She Was offered
$1,000 Week Salary.

San Francisco, July 15.-Captain Put
nam Bradlee Strong, who expected to
sail for Manila on the transport Grant,
has had his transportation revoked,
and though he has telegraphed his
resignation from the regular army 1t
has not yet been accepted by Secretary
Root, who has requested him to send
his resignation in the usual way by
mail, giving specific reasons for his
desire to quit the service which he
showed so much eagerness to join.
Strong gives as reason for his resigna-
tion the necessity of looking after the
estate left by his father, but this is
regarded here as subterfuge.
Military men who have followed the
case carefully say his resignation by
wire came after he had vainly tried to
get the government to give him trans
portation on the steamer Nippon Maru,
which carries Lady Francis Hope to
Hong Kong. They say he telegraphed
his resignation through fear that he
would be courtmartialed for his open
and notorious relations with the wo
man, who is better known as May
Yohe, the actress.
This theory gets strong corrobora
ton from the fact that Major General
Young who recently succeeded Major
General Shafter in charge of this de
partment. is angry over Strong's esca
pade, which has brought The army Off
GER into offensive notoriety, and he has
declared that Strong should be arrest
ed and tried for conduct unbecomine
an officer and a gentleman.
Lady Hope received local theatrical
manager and discussed contract fol
two years at 81, 900 per week He wants
her to open here, but she prefers Hong
Kong.

Soft Coal Trust.

Cleveland, Ohio, July l5.-The Leader
says:
Owing to certain expansions of the origi-
nal plan having been agreed on, formation
of the soft coal trust may be delayed to
give time for the working out Of larger
plans.
The plan as now outlined by those who
are on the inside provides a close har-
mony between transportation and trading
companies. In the former are to be in
cluded both lake, rail and ocean facilities
of the largest proportions. 1t now comes
out that the purchase of the Ohio river
mines reached by the Baltimore & Ohio
was part of this big scheme and per-
fected in way the control of the soft
coal carrying facilities for certain parts Of
Ohio, West Virginia and the Pittsburg dis
tricts.

FORTUNES PHASES.
THE UPS AND DOWNS IN THE
LIFE OF A CLERK.
A Tale of Misfortune and Misery With .
Happy Ending-The World Seemed
All Very Dark for While.


A clerks life, ordinarily, is a 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 a
reporter of what he went through he
said:
II 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
did not sit down l would fall. That
sensation usually lasted for about an
hour and when noon came / had no
appetite for lunch.
IL saw DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People advertised in the daily
papers about year ago and decided
to try them. l felt relief from the
first box and after I had taken six
boxes my disease was cured. / do not
take them now but always keep them
in the house. / have told my friends
what these pills have done for me and
should know OF any ones being sick
as l was / should recommend DIR.
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 H,
burlington, 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 OIL
female, DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People are sold by all deal
ers, or will be sent postpaid on receipt
of price, fifty cents box, or six boxes
for two dollars and fifty cents (they
are never sold in bulk or by the hun
dred) by addressing DR.. Williams
