It ID not necessary to tell assembly.
|goers that Mr. Robertson Is one Of the
best. In his particular line Of work,
and his il the most popular Of any
line taken up by public lecturers, he
is surpassed by none, and eQualled by
very few who are appearing upon
Chautauqua platforms. His superb
views are the very best that modern
scientific art can produce. There are
one hundred and fifty used with every
lecture, and 1t always seems to the
delighted beh0lder that the last
series Is the best. Mr.. Robertson Is
one of the few lecturers who can go
back to any platform on which he has
ever appeared and face : larger
audience at every temperance. The
people Of Canton will turn out en-
masse to greet this popular favorite
on the opening night. Since his visit
here last summer he has exploited the
Hawaiian islands and will have .
charming story to tell Of these newly
acquired American possessions. But
it matters not whether the subject
matter be new or old when Robertson
gives it no story could be more charm
ingly told.

AN ARERICANIZED FILIPINO
How Prest Gomez Has Benevolently "Asslmi
lated" U. s. Official Habits
(By the Associated Press

10y the ASSOCidtCu L ESQ.,
Manila, May 29-Following the seizure
and examination of the books Of the
Democratic Labor Union, the government
today arrested President Gomez on
charges of Incorporating funds, brig
andage, fraudulent sales of stock and or
ganizing an illegal association. Over a
hundred thousand persons were collected
in dues and contributions. The books
show deficit of 1000 pesos. 1t is believed
to be possible that a part of the, amount
was stolen before Gomez was elected pres
ident. The government charges that part
Of the fund was used to furnish arms and
food to the insurgents of Rial province.
This was Gomez's correspondence with
Guillermo and other leaders in the field
forms the basis of the brigandage charge.
The union has a membership of $1,000
is closely affiliated with the nationalist
party and is strongly in sympathy with
the insurgents
The arrest Of Gomez has excited the
natives No disorders have occurred, but
the governments action will increase the
feeling Of unrest in Manila, which has
been disturbed lately by reports of the
landing OF arms. The situation, however
is not serious.

To Complete Work.
Az the Associated Press.l

lBy the ASSOcldCeu EIesS.J
Washington, May 29.-After further CON
sideration of the question, Acting Seere-
tary Darling has decided that the work
Of completing the cruiser Galveston
shall be done at the Norfolk Navy Yard
This vessel was under construction at the
ship yard of Trigg & Company at Rich
mond, Va, and was about twothlrds
finished when the company failed.
The Navy Department considered the
expediency of rejecting the contract for
the completion of the vessel and also the
advisability of doing the work itself at
Richmond, at the expense Of the sureties
of the contractors, but finally both plans
were rejected in favor of having the work
done at the Norfolk navy yard.
Orders to that effect have now been
issued The only objection to the removal
of the vessel from Richmond was the lack
of water near the shipyard, and to obyiate
that difficulty it will be necessary by the
use of locks, etc, to create a basin at
the yard into which the warship can be
safely launched and transferred to the
channel of the river The work will be
done as soon as possible as it is desired
to complete the Galveston" without
further delay.

Narrow Escape From an Accident During

(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, May 29-Miss Alice Roose-
welt, who left today for Albany, N. Y
to become a bridemaid at the wedding
of Miss Ruth Pruyn, college friend, had
a somewhat exciting ride to the railroad
station. She occupied the seat of the
chauffeur in a new automobile of the
Red Devil" type which she had just
purchased and while proceeding down
Pennsylvania avenue she was oyertaken
by number of fire engines and hook
and ladder trucks on their way to fire.
None of them struck the new vehicle
but there were several close rubs. She
saved herself by bringing the vehicle to
halt while the fire wagons rushed on
past her.
