WILL CELEBRATE
KEEL OF BATTLESHlP NEBRASKA
TO Bt: LAID JULY 4
At the Shipyards Of Moran Bros. Seattle.
Event to Be Made the Occasion of a
Big Observation-Disclosures Of Commerce
Takes NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Savage Of Ne
beaska and Staff Will Be Guests of Homo

Seattle, April PA big celebration is
to be held in Seattle July Fourth, when
the keel of the United States battleship
Nebraska, now being built by Moran
Brothers, is to be laid. Action to that
effect has been taken by the chamber of
commerce.
A committee of three was appointed
by President elise to confer with the
city council as to plans for the celebra.
ton and to report back to the chamber
at the meeting to be held next Wednes-
day.
The chamber of commerce committee,
as named by President elise, is j. F..
Trowbridge, chairman of the committee
on celebrations; Jacob Furth, chairman
of the committee on naval affairs, and
Josiah Collins, chairman of the commit
tee on entertainments, and G. r. Collins.
The question of celebration on the
date the keel of the battleship is to be
laid was brought up by A. j. Bethen,
Jr., just before the adjournment of the
chamber. Mr.. Blethen stated that it
had been publicly announced that
Morans would be ready by July to lay
the keel of the battleship, and that they
had made arrangements that the laying
should be done on that date. Acting on
the strength of the information, MIR.
Blethen stated that the Times had tele-
graphed to Governor Savage of Nebraska,
asking il the governor could be present.
A reply was received from the governor 8
private secretary stating that Governor
Savage would be in position to attend a
celebration on that date, and that, if an
Invitation war extended, he would en-.
deavor to have his entire staff appear.
The Times Immediately conferred
with Robert Moran, telling him the
contents of the message from the
governor of Nebraska. Mr.. Moran
assured The Times that his company
would be ready by July to lay the keel
and that he favored big celebration of
some kind. He thought, however, that
the celebration should not have the air
of private affair, but should be taken
up by the city council or the chamber of
commerce and that celebration in keep
ing with the important event be ar
ranged. MIR. Blethen suggested that the
chamber take some action, and thoreupon
the action above indicated was taken.

THE POWER OF WILL.
1t Was Well Illustrated in the Case of
Gladstone.

Once in his later life. says a writer
referring to Gladstone. when question
of great delicacy and difficulty was
coming on in the House of Commons,
and everybody expected to see him
watchful and alert and perhaps fidgety
over it, he deliberately composed him
self to sleep on the treasury bench and
enjoyed refreshing nap till the time
came for him to speak, when with no
apparent effort he awoke, delivered
speech in which he said exactly Tnar
was needed and not word more, and
sat down, leaving his opponents SO
puzzled by the safe and guarded gen
eralities in which he had half expressed
and half reserved his views that ne
subject dropped in a short time. be-
cause no one could find in his words
anything to lay hold of. 1t was often
remarked that the greater the emer-
gency, the most composed and the
more completely equal to it did he
seem.
This was result of the amazing
strength of his will. which enabled him
to hold his emotions in check and sum-
mon all his intellectual resources into
the field whenever he desired to do so.
People who noted this strength of will,
and saw how much he lowered over his
colleagues, assumed that he must be
selfwilled in the ordinary sense of the
word, that is to say, obstinate and
overbearing. This was by no means the
case He was very patient in listening
to arguments from those who differed,
and not more difficult to persuade than
many people of far less powerful volt
ton.

MONEY ADVANCED
TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR
PRELIMINARY WORK
To the End That Washington May Be Repre-.
scented At the St. Louis Fair-Representa.
tives Of Commercial Bodies Meet at OIym.
pia and Agree to Assess Cities and COun.
ties the Sum Named.

Olympia, April 26.-The state OF
Washington, through delegates repre-
senting the commercial bodies of it's
principal cities, in convention assent led
at Olympia, pledged the sum of 5000
for the preliminary organization of Il
suitable exhibit to represent the state
at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition,
to be held in st. Louis in 1903. The
money was secured by apportioning to
each county of the state the responsible
ity of raising certain amount based on
an approximate estimate OF the value OF
property OF the several counties. The
preliminary fund is to be returned to the
various subscribers out of the appropria-
ton that will be voted the exhibit by
the next legislature. To facilitate the
work of organization, Mayor G. j. Lord
and Gwin Hicks. state printer, both of
Olympia, have deposited the whole of
$40, 600 to the credit of the committee
appointed to take charge of same until
the governor appoints an executive COM
mittee, when the funds are to be turned
over to that body.
Under the resolutions adopted, the
governor is to appoint a commission of
from five to seven members, selected from
CIlo DuSluosS uleH Oh Cilo StdCe, anu ne Is
also to appoint an executive commission
err, with power to remove him, or MEM
bers of the commission. This will give
the governor control of the commission,
and the con- mission control of the exhi-
bit, and will obviate repetition OF dis
ruption and scandal such as marked the
aftermath of the Pan-American EXPOSE
ton.
The question of state appropriation
was not discussed at the convention, the
delegates being unanimously of the opin-
ion that this feature of the exhibit was
immaterial at this time. Not discord-
ant note was struck, everybody being
anxious to conserve the best interests of
the state by providing an exhibit that
will be at once representative and rank
favorably with all others.
Olympia, April 26.-Governor Mcbride
at midnight announced the names of the
st. Louis fair commissioners, as follows !:
G. j. Lord, Olympia; George B. Kan.

Story of Livingstone.

When David Livingston was a boy he
showed that the words fail and diScour

books. At the age Of 10 years he was
put to work in factory. Long hours
and hard labor did not move him from

birthday. He felt that it was his duty

In the early days of his African work

HANDS NOT CLEAN
BRITISH GOVERNMENT SEVERED
CRITICISED
IN Course Of Debate in the House Of Commons.
for Its Abuse Of Power in Connection With
the Detention Of Albert Cartwrisht-Msny
Conservatives Join Opposition and Vote
Of Censure Is Barely Escaped.

London, April 25.-The forcible deten.
ton in South Africa of Albert Cartwright,
who, while editor of the South African
News, charged Lord Kitchener, prior to
the engagement with Gen. De Wet, with
ordering his officers to shoot all prison.
ers, formed the subject of a heated de.
bate in the house of commons.
John Morley, Liberal, moved the adj
journment of the house. The success of
the proposition would practically amount
to a vote of censure on the government
in general, and on Lord Kitchener and
Lord Miner in particular. Mr.. Morley
pointed out that Mr.. Cartwright, who
had served years imprisonment for
libel, now desired to come to England
and that his detention was illegal, un.
constitutional and tyrannical. He added
that the explanation OF Lord Stanley, the
financial secretary of the war office, who
served in the South African war as chief
press censor, that the government did
not think it desirable to increase the
number of anti British propagandists in
this country, was the most outrageous
heard in the house since Simon De Mont
fort established parliament.
The secretary of state for war, Mr..
Brodrick, in the course of reply, raised
a storm by saying that although Mr..
Cartwright had served mis- legal sentence
the question of his liberation was still
"sub judice."
Sir William Vernon Harcourt, Liberal,
and Winston Spencer Churchill, Con-
servative, both protested against such a
course.
Mr.. Balfour, the government leader,
commended that the government was JUS
tilted in OBTAINING even British subject
if it thought his wandcrings were calcu-
lated to injure the interests of South
ment would be condemning Lord kitch-
ener and Lord Miner, in whose keeping,
at this moment, rested the hopes for
peace.
James Bryce, Liberal, and Sir Robert
Reid, Liberal, twitted the ministers for
again interposing Lord Kitchener as a
buffer between the government and the
house.
The spirit of revolt spread to the
government benches Ian Malcolm,
Conservative, who is said to have been
heretofore an answering supporter of
the government, warmly repudiated Mr..
Balfour's argument that those voting for
the adjournment would be showing them
selves careless OF British honor. After
such an incident he no longer felt sure
that the members of the government
could say they had clean hands in this
regard.
Other supporters of the government
followed in the same strain.
The house then divided and the mo-
ton for adjournment was defeated by
l59 to 1872.

QUEEN DOES NOT SLEEP.
WilheImina's Condition Is Admitted Not to Be
Satisfactory.

Amsterdam, April 25.-In official cir
Giles it is admitted there is no ameliora-
ton OF Queen Wilhelmina's condition,
and her doctors admission that she is
not sleeping we'll is taken as a bad sign.
1t is alleged that the dispatches from the
royal family concerning the queens con-
dition differ substantially from the med
ical bulletins on the subject.
1t is reported that the queen is FESTIVE
under the liquid diet treatment and has
insisted that her nurses give her solid
food. In this respect, however, her doc
tors are inexorable. The queens mother
has great difficulty in pacifying the pa
tient. 1t is ascertained that the doctors
have advised the queens mother, for the
sake of her own health, to relax her
vigilance and take daily walk or drive.
These outings, therefore. are no indica-
ton that her majesty is progressing ia
vorably.

Chestnutting in Thessa1y.


1t Is said that the chestnut was dis
called Castanea, in Thessaly. They
called it the Castanea nut. whence
comes our name of chestnut. Strange
to say, they held it in light esteem, and
the patrcians would not eat it, leaving
it to the common people. And the COM
and nutritious it was. and it became
regular article of food with them.
In Italy to-day the nutting time is
one of the important seasons of the
year. for many Of the people almost
depend on the chestnuts for their food.
SO important is it that the schools are
required by law to have vacation at
that time, so that the children may go
out and help the older people gather
the nuts. 1t Is by no means a pleasure
excursion, but regular industry.
Whole families go out into the hills
and camp there for month. During
this time they scour the woods every
day--mon, women and children-each
person having canvas bag suspended
from the waist into which are put the
nuts as they are picked up from the
ground They do not throw sticks and
stones into the trees to knock the nuts
down, as the boys in this country do.
but gather only those that have fallen
out of the burrs. The nuts ripen under
the combined action Of the sun and the
frost, and the burrs then open and the
nuts drop to the ground. The crop is so
abundant that the gatherers always
find enough to keep them busy.
Some of the nuts are saved to be
eaten as nuts, but most Of them are
dried and ground into -four, from which
kind of porridge called polenta is
made. Little cakes, called necci, are
also made out of it.
The drying is done in huts built out
on the hills specially for that purpose.
The nuts are spread out on the floor.
and low fire is kept in the hut to give
certain degree of heat, which soon
dries them. The drying is merely the
evaporation of some of the water from
the nut by means of the warmth.

SALE OF WEST INDIES.
Majority Report On Treaty Adopted. "a to 80
Sensational Session of Landthne,

Copenhagen, April 24.-The Land
thing, by 81 to 80 votes, adopted the
majority report on the treaty providing
back to the Folkething.
The session OF the Landthing was one
of the most sensational on record. The
lie was passed twice, and charges and
countercharges were hurled back and
forth, while The opponents of the sale of
the islands went so far as to impugn the
accuracy of the United States govern
ment's official records. The president
of the house twice called former minis
ter OF justice to order and he also left the
chair and spoke impassionately against
the ratification of the treaty.
