DUKE BORIS LIKED
WESTERN LADIES
PRETTIEST GIRL HE MET ON HIS
TOUR WAS IN SAN FRANCISCO
AMERICAN GIRLS GRACEFUL.

PARIS October 4.-The Russian
Grand Duke Boris, who is lingering IN
Paris and having a gay time, was call
ed on today by The Examiner" COR
respondent.
The best reply to your query how
liked America" he said, recalls the
story of De Quincy, who entered a
house to avoid a shower and remained
a year. When l reached Chicago l in
tended to stay two days, but l remain
ed ten. y three-days visit was to be
my limit at Newport, and l forget now
long 1 stayed there. The two great
unique features of American life today
are its clubs and it's women. The eX-
hibitions of athletes and boxers that
l saw at the Olympic Club in san Fran
cisco We're amazing. The terrific blows
Of the boxers reminded one of the
strength of the race of giants. But it
is no wonder that the Coast develops
such big men.
Il visited many clubs from San
Francisco to New York and the easy,
generous hospitality of the clubmen is
delightful The Chicago Club in GER
tain aspects is the best l ever visited.
The Knickerbockel Club in New York
is a fine club, also.
THE ladies get all the hGnors in AM
crican society, and the men are salts
fed to let them. The men are self
sacrificing. They work hard to obtain
money for their wives and daughters
to spend. In Europe the wife furnish
es the money, while the husband is the
spendthrift. In America society is
mostly composed of women. The men
are too busy.
American women have fine figures
and they are very chic. Mrs. John j.
Aston is an excellent representative of
New York women. Mrs. Chatlield
Taylor whom 1 met at dinner with
Prince Engalitcheffs in Chicago, is the
prettiest woman in Chicago.
Il can't speak of society in San
Francisco as l did not go out socially
there. The Coast, L think, contains
more beautiful women than any other
part of the United States. Were it a
question of awards l certainly would
give first prize to a San Francisco girl
! saw while there. This, despite the
magnificent figures of the Chicago
golfing girls. l learned to play golf
while in Chicago and practiced at
Newport. l intend to play golf the re-
mainder of my life.
Il had heard of the big feet of Chi
cago women, but those l saw were
small and shapely. New York women
are devoted to elegance of dress, Osten-
tatiOn and briluancy. In Chicago wo-
men discussed Plato. 1 don't suppose
this was for display, but it was an ex-
ample, and illustrates the Intellectual
ity of American girls.
american girls are the most grace
full dancers in the world. At Newport
l accepted invitations in the order in
which they came. L have read Henry
Watterson's criticisms on the morals
of society, and I think he is too severe
on American society women. They love
to dance and sing, but their morals
are higher than those of the women of
any European country"

THAT He
CAN RESTORE LIFE
HE DECLARES THAT THE PRIN-
C1PLEs OF LIFE, IN SUBSTANCE,
is VOLATILE MAGNETISM.

Dr. c. w. Littlefeld of Alexandria,
Va, who for fifteen years has been
pursuing his Investigations on the vital
principles by experimenting with cats
dogs, monkeys and other lower ari-
mails, has at last made known the re-
suits of his work. He makes the asser-
ton that he can restore life. He as
ser,s that the principle of life, in sub q
stance, is volatile magnetism.
in demonstrating his theory, the doc
tor employs a solution of sahn- origin,
with salt as the basis, saturated with
cleo resin and exposed for several
hours to an atmosphere of free am
monia.
The chemical thus formed he de-
clares is an exact reproduction ot con-
ditions eisting in the human body The
volatile magnetism is drawn into the
body from the atmosphere through the
lungs and finding present in the body
tissue mineral compounds, the potent
atmosphere is al once absorbed, held
in bounds and later compounded by
natural processes with the tissue and
organic formations.
In other words, by securing through
artificial mems the solution which has
proved SO effectual in his experiments,
/ the doctor asserts he is only duplicat-
Z ing on small scale what occurs in the
human body when air enters lungs and
becomes the life-giving atmosphere Of
4 normal body.
Having secured this Saline solution,
Dr. Littlefield reduces it to a powder
that he has employed throughout his
long course of experiments. For ex-
ample, having put to death a dog or
cat by drowning and allowed the
corpse to remain long enough to con-
vince anyone following his investiga-
tions that life is extinct Dr. Lttleheld
takes it and without preparation of
any kind places it upon a heated stone
or porcelain plate, brought to a tcm-
perature corresponding to that of TIE
normal body, and convers it thorough
! ly with a light layer of the powder.
Within three or four minutes from
! the time the powder has been coated
over the dead body signs of life mani
fest themselves, and within fifteen min
utes from the time the resuscitating
methods were begun, in every instance,
the subject has returned to normal life.
! Possibly one of the most peculiar
| features Of the doctors experiments is
the fact that upon regaining con-
| seriousness and life, in every instance,
the beasts have displayed intense an
ger. This after an hour or so, how
ever, wears away, and the subjects be-
come greatly attached to DR.. Little
field, refusing to be separated from
! him. Cats, the eXperimenter has dis
covered, are probably less responsive
to his methods than animals of similar
| Importance in the animal scale
| This doubtless is due to the fact that
a cat, having been killed by drowning,
suffers more than other animals and

COOIS the Blood

Hot weather takes the life out of
everybody. You become languid, de-
bilitated, nervous, depressed. You
lose your appetite and you have indi-
gestion. Your blood becomes impure,
your head aches, your nerves are weak
and you are tired all the time. You
want something to purify your blood
and make it cool and healthy.

RUBBER.

Most of the worlds rubber comes
from along the Amazon. The great de-
mand has caused new explorations,
which resulted in the discovery of new
rubber regions, where operations will
at once begin. The shipments of rubber
from Iquitos during 1900 amounted to
800 tons; this output was raised in 1901
to 1891 TONS and still larger gains are
expected this year

Hard Fight on SmOOt
Bv Salt Lake Preachers

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Nov. 25--
The Ministerial Alliance ofSalt Lake
City is preparing for vigorous fight
against the election of Mormon Apostle
Reed Smoot to the United States Sem
ate, and falling in this, to carry the
fight to the halls of Congress. A plan
for the organized effort will be taken up
at the next meeting of the Alliance.
The idea is to make a fight similar to
that waged against Brigham H. Roberts
in the House. If the fight is unsuccess-
full in the legislature an attempt will be
made to make Mr.. Smoot's election a
national Issue, and a petition will be
drafted to Congress asking that Mr..
Smoot as a high official of the Mormon
church be refused seat in the Senate.

THE HOLY CITY.

Jerusalem Stil1 Resembles n Great
Fortress of Middle Ages.
Jerusalem is literally "builded upon
Its own heap" Below the houses,
courts and paved streets Of the pres.
ent unkempt city are the distinguisha-
BILE remains Of eight older cities-those
Of Solomon, Nehemiah, Herod, Hadri
an, Constantine, Omar, Godfrey, sala
din, Sulemnn-writes Walter Williams
from the Holy City to his paper in Co
lumbia, Mo.
Jerusalem has been besieged twenty.
seven times, a record of vicissitude un,
paralleled in the history of the world g
cities. 1t has been burned, sacked,
razed to the ground, it's inhabitants of
every faith put to the sword, all the
woes uttered by its own prophets
against it have come to pass, yet Jeru-
salem still resembles a great fortress
Of the middle ages. Seen from the
Mount of Olives, its massive gray
walls, its fat rooted houses, its
mosques and churches with their con.
spicuous towers and minarets, present
a marvellous picture, beautiful, sub
Time, unfading. from the picture gal
lery Of the mind.
The city itself has narrow, dirty
streets. The water supply for it's TO-
600 people comes in four inch pipe.
The open courts are few and small,
and the houses are punched together
with no regard for room or cleanliness.
Some houses are underground and 9th.
ers on top Of the high inclosing walls.
The people are fanatical, ignorant,
selfish. There is much to detract from
the ideal city, but despite all this and
more Jerusalem from the Mount of
Olives is the same in it's essential de.
tails, the same in the framework of its
setting, the same in fascinating sug.
gestion, as the Jerusalem of which Da
yid sang and over which Jesus wept.
The Necessity of Mystery.
To be content in utter darkness and
ignorance is indeed unmanly, and
and find knowledge must be always
right. Yet (aS in all matters before
observedD wherever pride has any
share in the work even knowledge and
light may be i'll pursued. knowledge
is good and light is good, yet man
perished in seeking knowledge and
the moths perish in seeking light, and
If we who are crushed before the
moth will not accept such mystery as
is needful to us we shall perish in like
manner. None but the proud will
mourn over this, for we may always
know more If we choose by working
on, but the pleasure is, / think, to
humble people in knowing that the
journey is endless, the treasure inex,
haustible. OF Architecture" "

The Tucson Democrats
C0nventicn and Candidates

There was a meeting of the Demo-
cratic City Committee last night, and as
result call was issued for mass meet
ing of Democrats to be held tomorrow
night to nominate candidates for city
offices.
This action meets with the disapproval
of many Democrats, who consider the
time allowed between the call and the
meeting too limited. The Democrats of
the city complain that they had had no
opportunity to consider eligible candi-
dates. They want more time to think
about what is proper and polite for
them to do.
Many Democrats complain that the
short time allowed between the call and
the mass meeting suggests ''snap" ar
rangement, that city convention should
be called to be composed of delegates
from each of the wards. This, it is
claimed, would enable the party at large
to be fairly represented. Others favor
primary and only very few can be
found who approve the scheme of nom-
mating by mass meeting.
There is a strong sentiment in favor of
nominating General Manning for Mayor.
DR.. George Martin is also suggested and
also NJ. G. Samaniego, DR.. Olcott, E. j.
Trippell and G. NJ. Burkhalter.
Chairman c. O. Rouse, of the city
central committee, was seen by Citi-
zen reporter this afternoon with respect
to the sudden call for city convention
and he denied emphatically that there
was anything unusual about the call.
He said that the Democrats were hold
ing a mass meeting similar to that OF
the Republicans, and besides, city con-
ventions had always been conducted in
this manner. He declared that there
was no slate, no cut-and dried arrange
ment and no "snap" business about the
coming mass meeting, but admitted the
cali was somewhat brief. He seemed to
think that general apathy existed in
the party since the last campaign and
that this was the reason why tie usual
caucussing was not done. Then it looks
as if the Democratic city convention
would be free and open to all corners.
The candidates for the other offices
seem to be in the field alone, so that an
understanding is quite evident. James
Flynn has no opposition for city assessor
and tax collector and will most likely be
renominated. Frank Treat seems to
have a clear field for the recordership.
Joaquin Legarra will be renominated
for city treasurer without opposition.
Bill Taylor, the present city marshal, is
seeking denomination, but the chances
are he will have strong opposition in
John Beck, who is being urged to run
for the Office. The candidates for the
council are scarce. M. G. Samaniegc
j /, mentioned as Second ward possi-
bilitv and Dan Evans is out in the
First for councilman at large. The mass
meeting will doubtless have something
to say about the nominations.

will be seen that the steamship conf. panieS can afford to be generous. When they are making profits rang ing from 800 to 10000 per cent. upon their mail carrying business it would seem almost grasping for them to ask for the full legal rates. It would be more seemly and more in keeping with their generosity to get law passed whereby they can make 10000 per cent. on the government business and still not exact the full legal rate.
 undoubtedly the law of S9l needs re- vision, but the revision planned by Mr. Frye. whereby the existing steamship companies will be able to mulct the government still more for their meager services will not meet with an enthusiastic reception by the people.

PROFITABLE PHILANTHROPY.
Row the steamship D Companies ( Would Muict the Government Through
 the Subsidy scheme.

In his report on the ship subsidy bill. Mr. Frye lays great stress upon the gen erosity of steamship companies in con- tracing with the government for car rying the mails. He says:
 "Ir fact. wherever the act of 1891 has worked successfully, the steamship com pauies have offered ard the postmaster gem eral has obtained more favorable terms for the government than those fixed as the maximum under the law Thus on the re- newal of the five-year contract with the New York and Cuba Mail, the company of fered for the service at the one-dollar rate several steamers which comply with the requirements of the two-Gollar class The Admiral line is furnishing under its ten year contract 15-knot steel steamers at the pay fixed for 12-knot wooden steamers. The Oceanic contract is performed by steamers a knot in speed and l GOO tons in size above the requirements
 This makes the steamship companies appear as philanthropic institutions. On further examination We find that the government is paying the New York and Cuba Mail S201 .07s for carry ing L99j pounds of letters and 30. .s6i pounds of printed matter. or at an ay- craze rate of S6.12 per pound. The same service. if performed at non- contract rates by American vessels would have cost $1.GO per pound for letters and eight cents per pound for othermatter, at a total cost of Sj. .661 10. If performed by foreign vessels the rates would have been A cents for let ters and 4% cents for printed matter, making total cost of $2 ,2666s. As the steamship company is getting S19s,- Nl2.32 for performing no service at all, their offer does not appear quite so magnanimous. The Admiral line re- ceived last year $117,49o for perform ing service worth S.,9f1S3 at com petitiTe rates. The Oceanic company will get in future $2S3.2S2 for service worth Ss,432.7S.
