And this too a business mans rec
ord. Isn't it a peach? What care
you how many miles a machine
can go without wrench through
sand and rivers to some objective
point in North Georgia?
What you want is machine
here to save your time, and
that's money. Any live bust
ness man can double his
capacity by using an OldWbhobile.
We stand ready to demonstrate
that it is pre- eminently the bust
ness mans machine. Its simplicity,
ease of operation, small cost for
running, and the low price make it
absolutely the best auto. in the
market.
Any business man using a
horse and buggy can afford to
throw it away, and then save big
money by buying an Oldsnobile.
Take your horses time, cut in
quarters and then you'll have the
slow limit of the Oldsmobile.
We appeal to business men to
consider this as a money making
proposition. There is no risk Now

automobile business has changed
its nature. It's a part of BUSI-

Atlanta, Aug. At is probable the
Prison Commission will recommend in
its forthcoming report to the Legisla-
ture the adjustment of all misdemean-
or convict camps wherein the convicts
are worked by or for private parties,
and urge that in future misdemeanor
ccnvicts be worked only by the coun-
ties themselves and on the public
works The commission has had good
deal of trouble with these private mis-
demeanor convict camps and is anx-
ious that all of them should be done
away with.
They have been productive of a good
many abuses, and several investfga-
lions have been held as result. There
are about $500 misdemeanor convicts
in the state and the commission thinks
they should all be put to work on the
roads.

Greenport, L. l., Aug. President

BONDS PAYABLE IN GOLD
CUBA WILL NEGOTIATE LOAN IN
THE UNITED STATES.
Proposition Can Be Brought Within
the Limits Of the Provisions Of
RI Plat Amendment. m.

New York, Aug. 7.-Regarding the
status of the proposed Cuban bond
issue, a dispatch from Havana to- the
Herald says:
The Platt amendment and the Gu
ban constitution can be complied with,
high officials here say.
The congress Of the United States,
not having approved reciprocity, can
not prevent Cubans seeking money to
face the existing crisis and pay recog-
nized and valid debts.
1t IS the intention to negotiate a
proper loan in the United States.
The bonds will be payable in Amer
lean gold and the value will be ad-
vertised in New York. There is no
intention to contract debts with Eu-
rope which might cause difficulties
for Cuba or the United States.
1t is believed the loan proposition
can be brought within the provisions
of the Platt amendment and that it
will not be necessary fer President
Palma to veto the bill.

Many CLAIM REWARD.
Courts May Be Called on to Divide
Tracy Money.

- .. "a NH.H"F LLLI-
Portland, Ore, Aug. lit is prob
able that the $4,100 reward for Out
law Tracy's body will not be paid for
some time, on account OF the number
of claimants. The body will be taken
to Salem at the conclusion Of the in
quest at Davenport, Wash, and Cow
ernor Geer has already stated that
he is willing for the state to pay the
reward as Don as proper identified
ton shall be made. The bandits body
will probably be shipped to Salem to-
morrow, but the reward will not be
paid unless the claimants reach an
agreement. 1t 10Y seems likely that
the aid of the courts will be invoked.
1t is now said that Governor Geer
will also favor the payment Of the
$1,000 to Mrs. Waggoner for Merrill's
body at the same time that the re
ward for Tracy's body is paid.
Governor Mcbride Of Washington
has announced that he will act in ac-
%cordance with the decision of the
Salem authorities in the matter Of
paying the reward.

Stickney, CT Albany county; state
auditor, w. D. Horn, of Big Horn
county; superintendent of public in
.struction, Mrs. De Larry, of Sheridan

ed States senators by direct vote Of
the people; compulsory arbitration Of
labor disputes; the enforcement OF
state institutions from partisan con-
troll; municipal ownership of public

railroad commission and the abolition
of passes and free transportation to
public officers; favors tax reform and
condemns the present land board for
favoritism; favors the preservation Of
forests, but denounces the present
law as oppressive and corruptly car
ried out; urges the opening of the
Shoshone Indian reservation and adj
vocates the establishment of the init
alive and referendum.

MISSING in THE MOUNTAINS.
WILDER Force Ogden Disappears From
His Home in New jersey.

34t.- eAEH.f 49, aH5AEtrA SEA&4f
New York, Aug. 7.-Wilber Force
Ogden, q years old, son OF William
Ogden, a prominent New York BUSH
ness man, has been missing from his
home in Chatham, N. j., since Mon
day.
Night and day parties Of friends
have searched the country for him,
watching every road, dragging the
Passaic river, and nearby ponds. and
even fighting their way through the
wilderness of the great swamp near
Chatham.
Several months ago Ogden returned
from a Vermont theological seminary
where he was studying for the minis
try, broken in health. Brooding over
his failure to finish the course of study
developed m%elancholia. His condition
improved, however, and Saturday
night the Nurse ventured to leave him
alone. Next morning he was not to
be found. During the night he par
TALLY dressed himself, emptied all his
bottles of medicine and left the house.
From that time nothing was heard Of
him until a tramp brought the news
that he had e the boy asleep under
a tree neal Alton, six miles away. on
Monday night.
A milkmen saw him in the Orange
mountains, where he disappeared in
the underbrush.

Will MEET IN WASHINGTON
THIRTY-SEVENTH ANNUAL MA,
TioNAL ENcAMPMENT.
A. r. Commander-in.Chief and
Quartermaster General Now in
the National Capital.

Washington, Aug. 7.-Word has
been received at Grand Army encamp-
ment headquarters that General Tor
rance, commander-in-chief, and Quar-
termaster General Burrows would ar
rive in Washington this week for the
purpose of consulting the local COM
mittee and %perfecting the detailed ar
rangements for the thirty-seventh an
nual national encampment of the or
der.
The complete official program will
then be determined upon, the line of
the parade announced, and various
other features pertaining to the gath
ering disposed of.
Unusual plans r being made to
provide accommodations to those vet
Grams who are financially unable to
put up at hotels or boarding houses.
In addition to the accommodations
for 1900 veterans in the government
printing office, hundreds of. tents will
be erected.
The medical arrangements for the
gathering are also well advanced. The
war department has offered to furnish
a model army hospital on the White
lot, where old soldiers attending the
reunion will be cared for, and those
casualties that may occur in the vi
cinity of the fireworks may receive
prompt attention. !
An extensive ambulance service is
also contemplated, placing those vehi-
cles within easy calling distance of
all points where the crowds are likely
to congregate.

FLIES TRANSMIT CHOLERA.
Report From Board of Health in the
Philippines Makes the Statement.

Washing .on, Aug. THE bureau Of
insular affairs of the war department
has received a report from the board
of health of the Philippine Islands and
City of Manila, dated May 16, 1902.
It's principal interest lies in the re-
port of cholera from the date of it's
first appearance in Manila, March 20,
1902, to the date of the report, which
shows that at that time 1,OO5 cases of
Asiatic cholera had been reported in
Manila, 800 of whom had since died
and 205 recovered. There is no doubt,
the report says, that the ordinary
house fly can transmit the cholera
spiritum to food as is the case with
typhoid fever. The board of health
has begun a crusade against flies by
means of fly poison.

New York, Aug. Mrs. Elizabeth
B. Young, aged 80, and the oldest
actress in America, is lying at the
Actors Fund home in West Brighton.
She has been ill for ten days and
hopes had been entertained of her
recovery. A, fall which fractured her

of nearly 20 years. She came to Amer

COMPANY ISSUE ARMS.
Shot Guns and Winchester rifles
Furnished to Horr Coke PuiIers.

FuFnlSneu TO 7orF IOke FuilcrS.
Livingston, Aug. THE first sem
blance of trouble between the locked
out coke pullers at Horn and the nom
union men employed by the Montana
Coal and Coke company, occurred yes
terday. The company has employed at
the ovens quite a force of non-union
men, who are loading coke from stock
on hand into cars for shipment to- the
smelters at Butte. Yesterday morning
a force of Italian union men appeared
at the yard and demanded of the non
union men that they desist work. The
ncn-unionists refused to leave the yard
and sent word to Mr.. Merry, mana
ger for the company. 4
Mr.. Merry adopted stringent meas
ures at n He sent up to the men
riot rifles and ammunition and shot
guns, loaded with buckshot, and is
sued orders for the men TO continue at
work regardless of what demands
were made upon them by the union
lists. The work continued, but the
union men did not make any hostile
demonstrations.
The union people deny that they
had any intention of violence and say
they were simply using persuasion to
induce the non-unionists to quit work.
1t is not thought that any conflict
will occur.
Sheriff Beley went up to Horr yes
terday and informed the superintend-
ent that he would send an officer up
there to preserve quiet.

makes a gratifying report. In the Bay
of Apia, Samoa, 453 distinct varieties of
fish have been found, many of them pre-
%viously unknown to scientists. This is
the first time that the fish life of a coral
reef has been thoroughly explored, and
DIR. Jordan feels much elated over Tissue
cess. The waters about the Island OF
Tutuila will be next explored.

JOINT WAR ~MANEUvERs.
smokeless Powder Will Render Them
Less Spectacular.

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE joint war
maneuvers off the eastern end of Long
Island will be robbed of their spectac-
ular features, SO far as the navy is
concerned, by the decision which has
been reached to use sub-calibre tubes
in the large guns. These tubes are
only an inch in diameter. 1t also has
been decided to use smokeless pow
der. The firing of smokeless powder
creates practically no report, and, of
course, is not appreciate to the sight.
Some question has arisen as to the
ability of the umpires ashore to de-
termine the points of the war game
if they are unable to see the smoke
from the guns or to hear the sound of
their explosion. The army, on the
other hand will employ the old-fash-
toned black powder from the fortifica-
tons and there will be plenty of din
and smoke when they go into action.

STONED H TROOPS.
Command Under Captain Carver At
tacked-oHenders Escape.

Shenandoah, Pa, Aug. Throwing
of stones at the troops was reported
early this morning. This time the at
tack was made against the provost
guards stationed at the Pennsylvania
station near one of the foreign colon
les in the southern part of the town.
Company A, Eighth regiment, under
Captain Carver, was on duty all night
and early this morning the captain
said he was greeted by a shower of
stones that came from the top of a
hill overlooking the railroad station.
The captain rushed a detail to houses
from which the stones were thrown,
but before the soldiers reached the
top of the hill, the offenders had es-
capped.

ity," would, in the opinion Of the re-
publicans here, be an excellent slogan
during the national campaign two
years hence. This idea is suggested
by the speech of Professor Schurman.
who was one of the Philippine com
m~issioners, when he said:
II believe the people want TO in
dorse the three 'R's'-.namely:
Roosevelt, the nations leader; Reel
procity with Cuba, the nations duty
Revision of the tariff, the nations in
terest." ."
There is no reasonable doubt con-
corning the first proposition, as state
convention after state convention has
heartily Endorsed President Roose-
welt as the republican standard bear
er. Leading politicians, including
Senator Platt of New York, have un-
qualifiedly Endorsed President Roose-
welt, and in the judgment of the party
nothing that can be %foreseen can pre-
vent the nomination of Roosevelt.
Revision of the tariff is another
feature which will be attractive, es-
pecially in the west, where the senti-
ment for a modification of the tariff
is growing so strong that it will be
impossible to keep this question in
the background much longer, and un-
less congress takes some action in
this direction before the next national
campaign the tariff will be the lead
ing question.
Iowa has declared itself, and while
other states Of the west have not placed
themselves on record, it is true that a
large majority of the western repre-
sentatives who represent the views
of their constituents, are strongly in
favor of revision. ..
Reciprocity with Cuba will be the
extremely popular slogan, as the peo-
pie consider it the duty of this great
republic to make tariff concessions
to the infant republic of Cuba. There
is great disappointment in this coun-
try and dire distress in Cuba because
of the failure of congress to act.

STARVED LABoRERs STRIKE.
Miserable Conditions of Agricultural
Labcrers in Eastern GaIicia.

Vienna, Aug. AFTER a special in
vestigation among the agricultural la
borers in Eastern .Galicia, the Neue
Freie Presse draws a. gloomy picture
of the miserable conditions which led
to the existing strike. The average
mortality from famine for several
years past, according to that paper,
aggregated $4,000. Laborers' wages
range from eight to 16 cents a day and
women earn from four to eight cents
a day. The peasants rarely taste
bread and exist chiefly or a soup, the
principal ingredients of which are
water and herbs.
A Vienna dispatch on June 80 said
that a great strike of agricultural La
borers was in progress in Galicia, the
labOrers demanding an increase in
the wages of six cents a day for men
and three cents a day for women to
double that amount. A Vienna dis
patch on August 5 reported many
CONNECTS between strikers and the mil
itary. A dispatch also to the London
Daily Express on August 6 said that
in an encounter between strikers and
the military 13 persons were killed
and 189 wounded and that in another
fight 200 persons were killed and
wounded.
Advices from Lemburg. Galicia, last
night were to the effect that the strike
showed signs of coming to an end.
