| Davidson, deserves an especial place in
river history as being the first boat to
carry an electric light on its waters.
Electricity has been an important fac
| tor in lessening the rate of river
freightage by doing away with the
necessity of tying up at night. This is
especially true of towboats.
Some Famous Pilots of the Past.
OF the famous pilots of the old days
volumes might be written. They were
distinct class, of marked individuali-
ty, with the common characteristics
| of great courage, decision and sense
of locality. Their handling of boats
| and knowledge of the river were so
marvellous as to seem intuitive, almost
supernatural, to the lay mind. 1t is
| a mistake, however, to suppose that
in the essentials of their craft they
were superior to pilots of the present
day. This common supposition no
doubt arises from the fact that the old
veterans were in the lime light of pub.
lefty, and that their successors are
comparatively unobserved. Now the
pilots of the rafting boats receive the
highest wages, their maximum of COM
pensation being in the neighborhood
of $3.50 month.
When, however, the river was in its
full glory, the "crack" pilots who
ranked with Scribe Harris, Smith Har-
ris, Grin Smith. the brothers Ludwig,
Ed. West, and my own boyhood hero,
Dan Wright, received from $500 to
$500 a month, and lived the lives of
nabobs. Many of them We'd with the
owners and masters of the boats, and
some of them were graduated from
the wheelhouse into the captains
cabin. In the main, however, pilot
lived exclusively in the atmosphere OF
his craft; he thought plotting, talked
plotting, breathed plotting and knew
no other element of existence.
OF the terrible disasters which at
tended river navigation on the Mis-
sissippi history has made abundant
record. Certainly one of the most dra-
matte incidents which took place on
the river was the picturesque rout
of the Indians by Capt. Throckmorton,
in the Black Hawk war.
After the engagement of Battle-Ax,
when the warriors were swarming on
the river between the shore and Battle
Island, a little below La Crosse, this
captain drove his steamboat into their
fleet of canoes, the huge paddles of his
wheel crushing their frail craft and
creating greater havoc among them
than the guns of the enemy.
The fierce engagements of the civil
war which took place on the river and
along it's shores may be left to his
tory, with the observation that the
outcome of that long and bitter strug-
gle might have been far different had
it not been for this great waterway
and the facilities which it afforded to
the army and navy Of the north.
The first steamboat to thread the
Mississippi to- its upper waters was
the famous old Virginia. which accom-
plished this significant feat in 1923, or
16 years after Fulton had astonished
the world with his invention.

SAILORS SAW KING OSCAR.
The Experience of Senator Perkins
with Royalty When He Was
Youth.

In these Prince Henry days every
one who has ever met a royal person
age is talking about it. Even those
whose friends have been introduced
to kings or princes are doing some
talking on their own account. That
is how the story of the way in which
Senator Perkins met King Oscar of
Norway and Sweden comes out at
this time.
Senator Perkins has been almost
everything in his day, says the New
York Tribune. In his own words, he
is sailor by profession. a merchant
by necessity, and politician by ac-
cident. 1t was while he was sailor
that his Swedish experience came to
him. His ship had just brought
cargo of cotton to Stockholm, and
young Perkins in company with an
English sailor named Branscom
decided to visit the royal palace.
They crawled into the grounds from
drain pipe and were promptly arrest
ed by the gendarmes. The boys knew
no Swedish, their captors no English.
and it was beginning to look dark for
them when party of distinguished
people came along and took an inter-
est in their plight.
"What are you doing in the kings
park?" asked one of them.
eve wanted to see the king and
how he lived" answered young Per-
kins, frankly.
''But don't you know" said the
man, "you might be put into prison
for trespass?"
eve don't want to hurt the king"
said the affrighted youth. "Only want
to see him.
IT am King Oscar!" said the man,
and the boys looked their fill. Then
the king ordered soldier to show
them through the palace.
In course of time Senator Perkins
became rich man. Thirty years
later he was governor of California.
On boarding yacht for cruise one
day he came across Harry Brans-
combe, the English sailor who had
shared his Swedish experience. The
man was still common sailor. but
Senator Perkins found a better berth
for him on one of his own ships.

Helen Ke1ler's Tribute to Her Mother.
How shall I write of my mother?
She is so near to me that it almost
seems indicate to speak of her. We
never dream of comparing our mother
to another; it is enough that she is
our mother-the being in whose be-
neficent tenderness is security and joy.
To describe her would be like attempts
ing to put into words the fragrance
of flower or the smile on a beloved
face.-Ladies' Home Journal.

RUSSIA WAS A PARTY
ANGLO-JAPANESE TREATY wNG
DRAWN WITH ITS CON-
SENT
NO ANXIETY IN czAR,s LAND
Japanese Representative Kept For-
eign Office Fully Advised of the
Progress of Events-Last-
ing Peace Looked For.

ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 14-The few
morning newspapers which comment upon
the Anglo-Japanese treaty intimate that
Russia was a party to both the prelim-
mary negotiations and the treaty itself.
The st. Petersburg Zeitung welcomes
the general intent of the agreement to
preserve the integrity of China and
Korea, which Russia has so frequently,
fully and entirely expressed itself in favor
of, The aims of the two island powers
therefore, nowise clash with Russia's in
tentions. So the agreement raises no
anxiety whatever
The Herold declares the alliance was by
no means unexpected, ''as the Japanese
representative kept the Russian foreign
office fully and Loyalty informed of the
progress of events. At the time of the
Chinese troubles, Russia laid down it's
programme for the integrity of China,
so it can have no objection to Great
Britain and Japan formally adhering to
the same policy. We hope that we now
have before us a period of five years OF
undisturbed peace in the far East, which
we shall not fail to utilize in consolidating
relations with our Asiatic neighbors.
The Herold concludes with hailing with
the highest satisfaction the recognition of
the integrity and independence of Korea.
"as fears of Japan's designs against
Korea had heretofore caused anxiety in
Russia

Consensus Of Opinion Is That Rus
sia Gets Worst Of 1t.
PARIS, Feb. 1.-THE Anglo-Japanese
alliance continues to pc the topic for con-
siderable discussion in the French press
The consensus of opinion is that it is
directed against Russia and that there
fore it may lead to tension in the far
East.
The Temps this evening says: 'lt ac-
centuates the antagonism between Russia
and England, and almost converts it into
a latent conflict. All those who had con-
ceived seductive idea of a closer under
standing between Russia and Great Brit
ain and the formation of triple Anglo
Franco Russian alliance deplore this re-
suit and ask if Japans friendship was
worth such a sacrifice of diplomatic sys-
tenn as was evoked by the Anglo-Jap-
anese alliance. 1t calls for a complement
and that is the entry of the United
States into the alliance If the sym
pathies Of the official world alone are
necessary this will be quickly done"
The Journal des Debats says: Lord
Cranbornes and Lord Lansdownes state
ments of yesterday that Manchuria is in
cluded in the scope of the alliance are
very important, because they give the
alliance the appearance of a weapon di-
policy, just now, is very active in Man
churia, we may soon be aple to calculate
on the efficacy or inefficacy of this
weapon, we shall be surprised if Russia
renounces her privileged position.

CHECK ON CONCRESSMEN
POSTMASTERS ARE NOT TO BE RE-
MOVED WITHOUT CAUSE,
Administration Will Not Allow Of
fees to Be Used as Political
Checkers-POIicy De-
fined by Payne.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14-An official
statement of the new policy that here
after will govern appointments of fourth
class postmasters was made today by
Postmaster General Payne, who said:
The policy of the administration is
not to make removals of fourth class
postmasters without cause The removal
of an officer is a proposition entirely
different from the naming Of a successor
at the expiration of a postmaster's com
mission. 1t is therefore desired that re-
movals be not made except for some
good reason which affects the service,
or at the request of a senator or rep
resentative indorsing the petition for
such change made by patrons of the
office in question. In some sections Of
the country, notably in the South not
represented by Republican representa-
tives in congress, these demands for
changes in fourth class postoffices are
made not for the good of the service or
for any proper purpose, but to subserve
the interests of rival factions
The administration does not believe
that the offices of the government should
be used to subserve the interests of any
petty faction in states where there is
hardly a semblance Of organization in the
party. To prevent this abuse it is neces-
sary to discourage these arbitrary re-
movals. No order on this subject, how
ever, has been issued.

DECISION NEARLY READY
PRESIDENT WILL SOON DISPOSE OF
SCHLEY'S APPEAL.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-One of the
principal subjects discussed at the cabi-
ret meeting today was the reply which
the president will make to the appeal Of
Admiral Schley. The president has given
a good deal of attention to the matter,
and it is understood that in the course
of few days, probably by the middle
Of next week, he will be ready to an
hounce his conclusions
The president outlined his views on the
Schley case by reading the first draft
of his decision. Some notifications
were made in it today, and in view of
the fact that it -is subject TO further and
possibly important changes in text, mem
bers Of the cabinet back. their indisposi-
ton to discuss it by the assertion that it
is unsafe at this time to predict what
its exact effect will be. It is a long
document, and one of its features is the
clear and concise presentation of the
facts regarding the Santiago fight as
given the president by the captains en-
gagged in that battle, who recently were
summoned to the White house TO confer
with him. The decision is couched in
the presidents characteristic vigorous
tone.

FAvORS The PANAMA
ENGINEER NOBLE SAYS 1T is THE
BETTER OFF THE CANAL
PLANS
ANSWERS SENATOR'S QUERIES
Hanna and Morgan Greatly Inter
ested in Experts StOry-$iO,-
100000 Considered Fair
Price for Panama.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14-Alfred Noble;
civil engineer, and a member of the
isthmian canal commission, was before
the senate committee on interoceanic
canals today. Mr.. Noble said that it
would be necessary to have absolute con-
troll of the cities of Panama and Colon in
order to control sanitation. He thought
the conditions were favorable for yellow
fever during most of the year on the
isthmus, though he was not a sanitary
engineer. There was no yellow fever in
Nicaragua SO far as he knew.
Mr. Noble was questioned regarding the
cuts to be made on both routes and said
that at Panama the work would be con-
centrated, while at Nicaragua it would
be more scattered.
Replying to Senator Hanna, Mr.. Noble
said this whole matter had been taken
into consideration when the report was
made.
In reply to Senator Kittredge Mr. Noble
said he considered the price Of $4O,CO1,OJ0
asked by the Panama company for its
property as fair and. reasonable. Mr..
Noble, in reply to question from SEN
ator Hanna, said that the expense of
operation Of the two lines proposed would
be practically in proportion to the length
of the canals, and in response to inquiry
from Mr.. HARRIS said S&at accidents on
the two lines would depend somewhat
on the magnitude of the aruucial works
connected with each.
Taking the whole propos4.lon, do you
consider the Panama proposition be,,er
than the Nicar9gu proposition?" asked
Mr. Hanna
Il think it is,' promptly responded the
witness.
This question and the reply to it caused
Senator Morgan to enter on a course Of
inquiry calculated to bring out the fact
that the coastwise trade would be better
served through the Nicaragua route than
through the Panama route Mr.. Morgan
stated that 81 per cent of this coastwise
trade is conducted by sailing vessels, and
the witness said in reply to the inquiry
that sailing vessels would be better ac-
commodated in the Nicaragua canal than
in the Panama canal.
Senator Hanna met these points with
the statement that comparatively little Of
the cOastwise trade would cross the
isthmus through either canal.

BISMARCK, N. D., Feb. 14-Mrs. Nav
Hibbs was on the stand all day today at
the preliminary examination Of the May

The principal feature Of today's case
was the introduction Of the cap of the
murdered man, Harry Hibbs, in evidence
The state desires to show by that what
permitted Hibbs skull to be broken with
out an abrasion Of skin. Defense re-
sisted introduction of the cap on the
ground that it could not be shown that
the cap was in the same condition as it
was when picked up near the well on
the morning of the accident Cor0ner
White will be called to the witness stand
tomorrow, and tell of the facts described
by him in connection with the case.

about the well into which Hibbs is claim
to have fallen. Preliminary examination
will probably be concluded tomorrow.

RIPON, Wis, Feb. 1.-THE Pickets es-

lege to keep away gentlemen callers have

1t seems that they acted under a mis-

plain talk given by President Hughes
to the student body after the chapel ex-
ercises today he cleared up the misunder-
standing as to the honor system estab-

reference to gentlemen callers. 1t de-
velops that the president had simply ad-
monshed one or two young women
against having the same caller every
evening in the week AS this advice

until it was reported that the honor sys-
tenn had been withdrawn altogether
