Wearers Of spectacles are frequently
annoyed by the glasses becoming dim
from deposit of moisture upon them.
An easy way to prevent this is to wash
the glasses every morning with soft
potash soap. The glasses should then
be polished. but an invisible film will

What the Death Mask Shows.

The value of a plaster cast as a por-
trait Of the dead or living face cannot
for a moment be questioned. 1t must
of necessity be absolutely true to ma
ture. 1t cannot fatter: it cannot carl
cature. 1t shows the subject as he was
or is. not only as others saw him in the
actual flesh, but as he saw himself.
And in the case of the death mask par
ticularIy it shows the subject often as
he permitted no one but himself to- see
himself. He does not pose; he does not
"try to look pleasant" In his mask he
is seen, as it were. with his mask off.

NUMBER 80

Among the mechanical appliances that
have helped the evening paper attain SUI
premacy in the newspaper field, by saving
time, one of the most notable Is the type
setting machine. From the Invention of
movable types In 1888 until almost the
beginning of the present century, all type
was set by hand. 1t was slow and la
borous process and the average speed Of
a compostor was 1000 ems an hour. The
type setting machine has revoIutionIzed
the daily newspaper composing room and
now, instead Of SO to so men Iaboring at
their cases, stick in hand, battery of ten
or dozen machines, each operated by one
man, turns out the type each day With re-
markabIe speed. SkilfuI operators have
set as much as 10000 ems In an hour by
machine, but one machine Is usually con-
sidered equal to four or five rapid hand
settlers. T h e ourn ! has 10 type
setting machines. If long piece of i'm
Is an easy matter to get 1t into type quick
Iy by dividing 1t into "takes' between the
machines. The type setting machine Is
a wonderful mechanism, made up of 5000
different parts. 1t Is operated much like
typewriter. Whenever a key Is
touched by the operator, corresponding
nnatrix of that letter Is released. When
enough matrices have slid down to fill
out line, the operator, by moving a
lever, causes the line to push into small
casting box. Melted metal Is autornatI-
caIIy run into the line, which Is then
sawed and trimmed and appears in a very
few seconds In the form of solid line Of
type, ready for use. Meanwhile, the
operator has been at work on his next
line, which follows the same process. An
arm comes down, after the casting, picks
up the matrices and automatically dis
tributes them to their proper channels;
ready for use again. The metal In the
line Is melted up and used over and over.

REPUBLICANS
The Connecticut Convention Puts
Up a State Ticket 81, ~
To-day. 49,.

Hartford, Conn.,, Sept. 1.-THE republic
can state convention, which organized
temporarily last night. reassembled to-
day to nominate candidates for state Of
fees and for congressman at-large, to
lions to revise the system Of representa-
ton in the state convention.
Senator o. N. Plat was made perma-
nent chairman and the nomination of q
state ticket was at once entered upon.
For governor the names Of Abram Cham
Cleaveland Of New Haven, were pre-
scented.
After eulogizing the state administra-
ton, Senator Plat said:
Let US then turn our attention to the
wider field. Shall we endorse or condemn
the republican administration so glorious
ly begun by William Mckinley, so grandly
continued by Theodore Roosevelt? The
United States has enjoyed six years of
unexampled prosperity That prosperity
has been coincident with republican adj
ministration. During that period our ca
reer has been one of uninterrupted devel-
opment; in international influence we lead
the world to-day. What other issue does
the republican party. need to present ?
How can 1t better commend itself to the
support Of the people of the United States
|. than by patient continuance in this well
doing? Nor is our national prosperity
and glory accidental. Our country has
always prospered under republican rule
it has always languished when so unfor-
tunate as to come under the sway of the
democratic party. The one overwhelming
issue Of this campaign is the Endorsement
Of the republican administration Of Will
liam Mckinley and Theodore Roosevelt.
Recognizing the force of this our oppo-
nents are indulging in a most frantic hunt
for some other issue on which to go be-
fore the people. There is a fascination in
hunting when there is game to be found
and secured, but it Is dull and tiresome
sport where, there is no game to be either
found or secured; and this hunt of the
democratic party for a new issue must be
both dull and tiresome. When we re-
stored the gold standard and: re-estab-
lished the credit of the nation on a solid

President Castro Of Venezuela: hes re-

Of the reVolutionists. = =:
The Venezuelan government situation Is
critical. II -.'' T,''<-- -
Recent advices received from Venezuela
confirm the dispatches of the Associated
Press from Wille1nstad Of Friday, Sept. IL.
The battle which, as then announced, be-
gal Sept. II, in the vicinity Of Tinau-
quil1o, Venezuela, between about 1000
revolutionists under the command OF Cen
erals Mendoza, Batalla and Riera, and
government forces of about the same
strength led by the Venezuelan minister
Of war, General Garrido,' resulted in the
defeat Of the government forces, and not
in a victory for the latter, as announced
in a dispatch from Torres Cardenas, sec
rotary Of President Castro, which set forth
that General Mendoza's army had been
arlnihiIated Sept. near Tinaquillo. -. .
The engagement Of that date, as cabled
from here Sept. IL, was only an advance
guard fight of no Importance. The real
battle began Sept. II, and lasted four
days, after which General Garrido re-
treated on Valencia and eventually en-
tered that city Sept. IA, with about 2, 100
men, leaving the road free for the further
advance on Caracas for the revolutionary
army under Generals Mendoza, Riera and
Battala. H.
The only other government army In the
field is the one which Is under the per-
sonal command of President Castro. A
few days ago it was at Ocamure,, about
forty-f1vee miles south OF Caracas, and
was sending, out scouts looking for the
advance guard of the army Of General
Matos,, the revolutionary leader. The
president later abandoned his position
precipitately before. the advance Of the
revolutionists who occupied Ocumare.
The president ~retreated from Ocumare
to Carayaya and then to Guyaba, about
four hours march from Caracas.
. According to a report the president In
tends, to move his army to point near
Valencia, join forces with the troops un-
der General Garrido and attack the revo-
lutionary, army commanded by General
Mendoza: ........- .., .. e.. ..
From all points are reported assertions

in Venezuela is that the last important
incident of the revolution Is approaching.

foundation its free silver issue disap-
peared with the clouds. When we gave
Porto Rico popular and representative gov
eminent, when we put down rebellion in
the Philippines, established civil govern
1nent there, clothed its Inhabitants with
all the rights guaranteed to our own citi-
zens by the constitution, and started it on
the road to popular and representative
government, its paramount issue of i'm
perialism became but dissipated fog"
: Upon the. subject of trusts, Senator
Plat said:
!; 1.-THE difference between the republican
and democratic parties in the matter Of
trusts may be stated thus: The demo-
cratic party proposes to destroy trusts and
the business conducted by them: the re-
publican party proposes to regulate trusts
and the business conducted by them. so
that no unfair advantage shall be taken
Of the people of the United States; and to
the full limit of it's constitutional power
it will carry out this policy. The repub-
lican party does. not, set Itself against
business or the capital needed to develop
business; it does set itself against cap
italistic monopoly or extortion. The DEM
ocratic party, true to its traditional pol
Icy of destruction, has apparently but one.
and only one remedy for evils arising
from the improper management Of: bust
ness carried on by the great corpora
TONS and that is to put all articles manu-
featured by corporations which have the
supposed ability to control prices on the
free list, thus destroying at one blow
protection to our industries and the busi-
ness pursued by the trusts. No more fat
uous policy could be conceived. We deny
that the tariff is the mother Of trusts, we
affirm that. the tariff is the parent OF
prosperity"
Hand in hand with the policy of pro-
lection, he said, was the policy Of reci-
procity reciprocity which shall extend
our trade and give us wider markets with
out seriously Gripping our own: hen
ever and wherever such reciprocal trade
ARRANGEMENTS can be made the republican
party is bound by the expressed views OF
its late president in what may be termed
his farewell address to the American peo-
ple as well as in the explicit declarations
of President Roosevelt to sanction and
ratify such arrangements.
< The senator advocated reciprocity with
Cuba along lines that would be mutually
advantageous to each.

Proposition. 49, r..- -. '.-.>. +
The twin city retail, merchants will
probably not secure the SPECIAL excursion
rates, authority for which was recently
asked of the Western Passenger assocja-
ton. These round trip rates were ito" be
one and one-fifth Of the one-wat9 rate and
were to be open to the public throughout
a territory within 200 miles of Minneapolis
and st. Paul. The object would be- to
bring residents of small towns into the
twin cities to do their shopping.
The proposed excursions were therefore
opposed by the country merchants. The
railways made the additional objection
that if such excursions were granted, SIM
liar excursions would be demanded by all
the important towns IN the northwest;
After the Western Passenger; Associa-
ton had ruled adversely upon the petition
