Rouse, my lad the sun IS shining
On your curtained window there
Rouse, my lad no more lie puing
For a tickle maiden fair.
See how Love has decked in beauty
Nature swecter than a bride
Shun your dreams and haste TO duty
Happy even that you tried.
Smile, my girl your tears are falling
Where bright dewy blossoms spring
Smile, my girl the birds are calling
Heart notes tender Listen Sing
Though one mans false treth was plgbted.
Honest loving still has birth
Wrongs TO Trust and Truth arc righted
Fasehoods perish from the earth.
Joy, my friend cast of your sadness
Rest your weary, mourning eyes.
Joy, my friend for Spring pure gladness,
For Gods blissful, vernal skies.

YOUNG PERELES
WAS DROWNED

Milwaukee, Nov. 1.-THE body OF
Nathan J. Pereles, son of Mrs. B. +.
Pereles, who disappeared from his
home under mysterious circumstances,
was found yesterday shortly before
noon floating in Lake Michigan
quarter of a mile south OF the pier.
Owing to the badly decompOsed condl-
ton of the body it's identity was not es-
tablished until the pockets OF the I'M
fortunate man were searched at the
morgue and it was found to be young
Pereles.
No marks of violence could be seen
upon the body which would in meas
ure tend to strengthen the theory OF
suicide, but as far as is known by the
friends and relatives Of the young
man, he had no reason in the world,
however, for wishing to end his life.
He was always of a happy disposition
and it was not known that he had any
trouble of any kind upon his mind.
Many Of his friends hold to the theory
of suicide.

Transport Sumner Has a
Stormy Voyage-~En-
counters Typhoon
General Says Civilization
in Island is Doing
Wonders

San Francisco, Nov. 1.-The trans
port Sumner with General Chattee on
board arrived yesterday afternoon
from the Philippines after a stormy
VOYAGE. Shortly after leaving Yoko-
hama the vessel encountered ty-
phoon. Boats were smashed, portions
of the rigging carried away and dur
ing the heiguL of the storm launch
was torn from it's fastenings and
struck Mrs. Chaffea's stateroom with
terrific force, the shock prostratlng
that lady, who was i'll when she board
ed the vessel. In an interview last
night General Chaffee said that when
he left Manila everything was pro-
crossing in most satisfactory man
ner and that he could not be more
pleased with the situation.
Civilization has accomplished Won
ders,' he said, "and the natives are
fast recognizing the institutions OF
this government and meeting them
with a friendly spirit.
He said also that while some prov
inces are unsettled and further trou-
BILE may be expected, the outlook is
most cheerful, and he looks for no
great difficulties or disturbances re-
curing unusual force to subdue. Many
natives now advise their former bel
Igerent fellows to lay down their
arms. The general said the greatest
difficulty experienced was in oyercom-
ing the legends and superstitions OF
the people. To this feature was large
" due the spread of cholera and other
diseases. Natives will not submit to
quarantine peacefully and frequently
escape from their homes, spreading
the disease. Chaffee expected much
suffering in the districts where the
people are unable to raise crops on
account of the loss Of farm animals,
but the government has taken steps to
relieve their distress. Inc province
of Samar, once the most unruly and
belligerent, is now quiet and peaceful
and prosperous.
Chaffee and his party were waited
upon last evening by William H. Har-
ner, representing the Union League
club of Chicago, and formally invited
by that gentleman to be the guest OF
he club and of he Grand Army Hall
and Memorial association. Of Illinois
The general accepted, as did also Vice
Governor Wright, who came over
with Chaffee.
During his stay here, General Chat
fee will be banqueted by the Mer-
chants association and the Loyal
Legion.

ART OF "JERKINe" VENIsoN.

Not many men who go into the
woods after big game know anything
about preparing the meat for eating.
This is usually left for the guides to
do. and the sportsman thinks that it
can simply be cut from the animal
and cooked at once Some men know
that it is not safe to eat venison
within "a hours after it has been
killed, especially if the deer has been
running just before it was killed and
the meat heated. Others think that
no game is fit to eat until the whole
neighborhood knows that it is present.
Few sportsmen know how to Clerk"
venison after the old Indian method,
and so keep it for an indefinite time.

The Maine Sportsman tells of the
way to jerk the meat, and this way
is the best. The venison is cut in
slices about two inches thick, seas
oned and allowed to drain all it will
as it stands, then laid on a rack made
of branches and twigs, which will
permit further draining, and yet not
permit the meat to slip through the
openings. During the first day light
smudge is maintained to keep insects
away, but if exposed to the strong
sun it will not need the smudge after
the first day, as it will be dry on the
outside and the flies will not then
touch it. In the evening before sun
set and before any dew falls, it must
be removed to a dry place and kept
covered until the next day, to prevent
any moisture getting to it. Two or
three days of this treatment "cures"
it, but it is "done" when thoroughly
dry, and may be kept any length of
time, if kept dry.

COOK COUNTY REPUBLICANS
TO CONTEST ELECTION

Chicago, Nov. 8.-The Record-Her-
aid today will say:
Daniel D. Healy, republican candi-
date for sheriff at the recent election,
claims he has been elected sheriff and
that the count which showed the cleo
ton of Barrett, democrat, by nearly
1000 plurality, is false. 1t is claimed
the total vote for sheriff was in ex-
cess to the extent of over 10000 votes
of the number of ballots issued in the
county for the election. According to
the report from the board of election
commissioners between 284 900 and
5000 ballots were issued at the
polls, including a number destroyed
and those wrongly stamped. The fig
ures give the total on the vote for
sheriff at 294,9 Where the differ
ence comes in has given rise to a cry
of fraud in the interest of some candi-
date for sheriff on the ticket"

ISLE OF PINES IN BAD STATE.

United States Minister Keenan, Makes
Report to the President.
Washington, Nov. 1L.-Pres1dent
Roosevelt has asked the secretary of
war for a report on the situation re-
garding the Isle of Pines as it was at
the time of the withdrawal of the
United States from Cuba and also on
the government of the island during
the time the United States was in con-
troll in Cuba.
In an interview on the conditions or
affairs on the island, T. J. keenan,,
who is president of the American Res
idents and Property Owners assocl-
alton on the island, said the condition
of affairs was so bad hat United
States Minister Squires had virtually
advised the delegation Of American
Pine islanders, who recently called on
him in Havana, to take matters into
their own hands and establish a pro-
yisional government. Continuing,
keenan, said:
t"The Isle Of Pines is on the verge
of anarchy, having no governor, no
courts or magistrates, no schools and
no revenue. All taxes and customs
dues which are paid by the islanders
go into the Cuban treasury and not q
cent is expended for their benefit. All

New York, Nov. 1.-THE fate or
Roland B. Molineux will be deter
mined today. When court adjourned
last evening Justice Lambert an
nounced that he would allow Assist
ant District Attorney Osborne but two
hours and a half more to finish sum-
ming up, which means the court will
deliver it's charge and the case will go
to the jury during the afternoon.
The courtroom was crowded to sui
location when at the opening of yes
terday's session Ex-Governor Black
rose to sum up for the defense. After
a general defense of Molineux, whom,
he declared, the prosecution had ut
terly failed to connect in any way
with the death of Mrs. Adams, Black
passed a scathing denunciation of
Harry Cornish, to whose guilt, and not
that of Molineux. he declared, every
circumstance in the case directly
pointed. More than half of Blacks
address, which occupied nearly four
hours, was devoted to an analysis of
Cornish's conduct and testimony, and
of the testimony Of other witnesses
in manner to support his contention
that Cornish's actions were not con-
sistent with his innocence of the
crime of which Mo1ineux stands &C
cused.
Osborne based his argument for the
prosecution yesterday largely on the
testimony of handwriting experts
which, he Said conclusively showed
Molineux to have been the writer of
the poison package address and of the
disputed exhibits.
