City Marshal VIM. H. Sanhorn says he
will resign his position at the next meeting
of the City Council. While his health is
gradually improving, his deafness prevents
him from attending to the duties OF the
office. A petition was circulated Tuesday
and received many signatures, asking the
City Council toappoint Dr.. l.. w. IIammons
City Marshal:
The odd Fellows and RebekahS gave a
reception to Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. r. Iarri-
son and daughter Margaret in ODD Fellows
hall on the evening" prior to their departure
for Texas. Mrs. Harrison was presented
with a Past Grand's regalia, beautifully
embroidered, and Miss Harrison was given
a token of remembrance. The Harrison
family has been active and efficient in odd
Fellow work and they will be greatly
missed. They left by boat last Thursday.
The San Francisco Chronicle of Oct 9
contained the following item concerning a
former resident of Rockland, well known in
this section.
Capt A. f. PillSbury of the Pacific Mail
Company, and one of the best-known mar
iners in this port, has been appointed ma
rine surveyor for the National U Underwriters
Association, recently organized, and COM
posed of the large companies doing busi
ness here. Many applications for the posi-
tion of marine surveyor were received by
the association, but the executive commit

Pillsbury was adopted at meeting held
Tuesday. He is now en- route to Japan on
the steamer Doric to take charge of the dis
abled Mail steamer Peking and bring her
home. Upon arrival he will tender his res.
gnation to the Pacific Mail Company, in

Love's Final AGE.

dorothy Dix, in Ainslee's.1
s"The last age of love in a mans life
is the dotage. This is peculiar to
wealthy old men, and its most pro-
nounced symptoms is asmania for pre-
senting diamonds, and opening bottles
for chorus girls who call him Papa. At
other times in a mans life he has some
slight misgivings about love being al
ways conducted on a reciprocal basis;
but when he reaches this age he throws
fears to the winds. He knows he is
loved for himself alone. The man at
twenty-five doubts his power to win a
woman's heart. The man of seventy
five is cock-sure that he is charmer
nothing feminine can resist. He knows
the ratio Of his fascinations has in
creased with his advancing years. and
he quarrels with his family, who are
cruel enough to suggest that the de-
butante he leads to the altar may have
weather-eye on his WILL
"1'he last age of love is the most dan
gerous Of them all, and is generally fa-
tai. In fact, love is like the measles
1t lis safest and goes easiest with man
when he has 1t early in life"

What Secretary Wilson Is Doing.

IJoe Mitchell Chapple IN DecemDef Ma
tional.l
During my trip abroad last summer
I encountered many evidences of in
terest in our agricultural department
OF course whenkI arrived home had to
go and tell Secretary Wilson all about
it. He already knew it, perhaps, but
there was a twinkle of appreciation In
bis eye as he looked UP over his glasses
while signing papers.
More money is spent for scientific re-
search by Secretary Wilson than by
Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Chicago, and
Leland Stanford combined. Six mil
lion dollars expended yearly and two
thousand trained scientists employed;
it certainly is calculated to make ouI
European neighbors open their eyes In
wonderihent at the conquest of knowl-
edge this department achieves. Over
700 separate publications and 100000
documents are distributed every year
and nowhere are they read more keenly
than in foreign lands A prominent
official in France said to me that he
could not understand what advantage
all this accrued knowledge was to us, II
we persisted in giving 1t away so gen.
erously. I asked Secretary Wilson con-
cerning this, and he replied:
1T is by giving we receive. While
foreign countries shut official doors
against us, ours are wide open and we
are always the gamers. OF the $2,700,-
O00,000 OF trade in our favor during the
five years of McKinley's administra-
ton, S2,400.O00,000 was from farm pro-
ducts, leaving only $300,000,o00 from all
other sources. We buy from foreign
markets almost half as much as we sell
In 1900 we sold $S44,000,00O worth and
purchased $420,0OO,000 worth.
"The farmer is gorging western banks
with his money, and no longer needs
to borrow to move crops; that explains
the land boonl-a place for investment
and they have even invaded the Brit
ish possessions to invest"

THE MERGER HEARING.
1t Was Developed That Hartmann
Testimony Had Been Taken Pri'

testimony Had Been AIKEN Pri-
vately.
New York, Dec. 1.-THE hearing in
the federal suit against the Northern
Securities Company, as an alleged
holder of controlling interest in the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
railroads was resumed in this city to-
day. 1t was developed at the hearing
that the testimony of E. H. Hartman
in the case of Minnesota against the
Northern Securities Company had been
taken in private last week and eX-
Judge Day, special assistant attorney
general for the United States, said that
Hartman could not give any details OF
the organization or object of the North
ern Securities Company. Hartman
had no information of any value to
Minnesota There was nothing of inn
portance to schedule and the hearing
consisted in giving counsel on both
sides chance to agree on certain doc
umentary evidence and upon date
when the matter may be presented to
the trial judge in the United States cir
cult court of Minnesota. 1t was agreed
to admit to record in the federal case
the evidence given by Colonel Clough
and by Mr. Hartman in the state case.

of Nov. IA and Is. 1901, of the direc-
tors of the Northern Securities COM

DR.. Thomas Herran, present secretary
of legation. has been clothed by his gov.
ernment with full authority to prose-
cute the negotiations looking to a canal
treaty. Minister Concha having stood
fast against several strong representa-

Republican Senators are Some
what Divided on the Omni-
bus Statehood Bill
HOLD CONFERENCE
Allison, AIdrich, Hanna and Others
Want Only Oklahoma Admitted at
the Present Session = Appropriation
Bill to Pay the Strike Commission
Introduced.

Washington, Dec. 1.-The contest
over the omnibus statehood bill began
upon the meeting of congress. As soon
as the senate adjourned there was a
conference between Senators Allison,
Aldrich, Platt, of Connecticut, Cullom,
Lodge, Hanna and Beveridge. These
gentlemen represented republicans who
are opposed to the omnibus bill admit
ting Oklahoma, New Mexico and Ari-
zona, and it is understood, favor the Dill
admitting Oklahoma only. Friends OF
the omnibus bill are also active and
claim to have the names of fifteen re-
publican senators pledged to support
the omnibus bill, which, with the DEM
ocrats. will insure it's passage. 1t is
probable republican caucus upon the
subject will be held.

A SETTLEMENT MADE
Venezuela Has Agreed to Settle the
Claims Of Germany and Great Britain
and Force Will Be Unnecessary.

Berlin, Dec. President Castro. of
Venezuela, has handed to the German
minister at Caracas a written accep-
tanoe of part Of tho Germans claims
which is sufficiently comprehensive TO
delay the presentation of joint ulti-
matum by Germany and Great Britain,
if not rendering 1t altogether unneces-
sary. 1t is understood that Great Brit
aims demands will be satisfied
Foreign Secretary Won Richthofen
and British Foreign Secretary Lord
Iansdowne are now in correspondence
over Venezuela's change of front. This
government considers a peaceful settle
ment of the questions in dispute quite
probable and attributes President Cas-
rto's yielding to the fact that he has
become aware the United States would
not interprose any obstacle to forcible
collection of the claims of Germany and
Great Britain.

BANK CLERK SHOT
Wesley Reynolds Dies in Successful
Fight to Save WestviIle Banks
Funds.


Iaporte. Ind, Dec. WESLEY Rey-
nolds. a youth of 16, displayed rare her.
oism in a single handed fight with four
bank robbers at Westville Sunday
morning, and lost his life in desperate
= .,rs,e witch he kent up after hav-
ing been twice wounded with bullets.
The robbers forced an entrance to the
building for the purpose of looting the
safe. but were baffled by the determln-
ed resistance of Reynolds and fled.
The thieves began operations by
hurling a beer keg thru a window in the
rear of the bank but few feet from
where Reynolds slept, with three re-
volyers within reach. The men hao
M sooner set foot within the building
than the boy opened fire, Whlch was
quickly returned
One of the robbers crept to the Wes'
side of the bank just opposite the place
where REYNOLDS, with smoking revolver
was firing leaden missiles at anotnei
robber. who was crouchlng behlnu q
co,,nter and who would have faced him
had he stood erect. While Reynolds
was fighting to kill the man who was
within close range the other robbel
from a vantage point was doing MUIR
derous work, reloading at least two re-
volyers before the plucky boy was van
quished.
One bullet struck Reynolds just above
tha chin. lodging at the base of the
brain. Another entered at the base OF
the neck and came out between the
shoulder blades. He stood his ground
however, and continued to fire until he
received his death wound, bullet
piercing his heart. He had emptied all
of the chambers of one revolver when
he fell.
Leaving behind them the fallen body
Of REYNOLDS the robbers made haste to
flee. They broke open the barn OF
Charles Herrold, and. taking a horse
therefrom, hitched it to a surrey. which
was run out of the barn. instead OF
buggy, which was within the most con-
yenient reach, drove at break neck
speed in a southerly direction. aban-
doning the rig at a point about six miles
south of Westville, near a coaling sta
ton on the Pennsylvania railroad,
where the men are believed to have
boarded a train.
The tragedy was not revealed until
several hours later, when man pass
ing in the rear of the bank building dis
covered the shattered and open window.
He called to Reynolds, but received no
reply. He fastened to notify r.. 5,
Smith, the proprietor of the bank. who
entered the building to find his faithful
clerk dead.
The town was quickly aroused, and
officers were summoded, but the rob
bers had start of fully four hours and
there is little chance of their capture.
Within a few hours after the finding
of the body the residents of Westville
pledged themselves to pay a reward of
$1,000 for the apprehension of the mur-
derers The sentiment expressed today
was that the men would not be permit
ted to live fifteen minutes If captured.
Reynolds was the most popular young
man in town.

ANONYMOUS LETTER
Fort Dodge Conductor Receives Letter
Demanding Sum of $1,000 and Max
ing Threatening Accusations.

Special to Times Republican.
Fort Dodge, Dec. 1.-An anonymous
letter from Fort Dodge has been re-
ceived by Mike Carrigg. formerly a well
known Illinois Central conductor, and
at present yard master for the same
road at Waterloo. The letter intimates
that Carrigg once wronged girl in
Fort Dodge, and demands the sum of
$4,000, more or less Carrig denies all
the charges preferred in the letter and
has published statement asking the
unknown correspondent to make him
self or herself known. Carrigg's wife
left him year ago. without giving a
reason Carrigg is of the opinion that
some of the anonymous letters fell into
her hands. He is hopeful that discov-
cry of the anonymous letter may lead
to restoration of a happy home life. The
letter has been placed in the hands of
the police.

Vermont's License Plans.

Vermont goes ahead carefully in the
matter of granting licenses to sell
LIQUOR. It can only be done after the
people have voted on the subject. A
bill has already passed the legislature
which will be submitted to a popular
vote during the winter. The bin pro-
vides for an annual referendum on the
licensing of saloons, sets a minimum
fee of $500 for q general license and a
maximum fee of $1,000 and provides for
a $3.50 license to sell fermented liquors.
There Is an anti treating clause. If the
bill is approved by the people its opera
ton will be watched with great In
terest, as some of it's features have not
worked well elsewhere. particularly the
clause providing for two classes Of Ii
censes.
