a log of the trip but just before the
party reached their destination the boat
upset for the fourth time and the party
escaped with nothing but their lives and
the wet clothes that they had on. They
had much trouble with the farmers
through whose farms they were COM
PEELED to pass and the barbed wire that
was stretched across the stream for the
purpose of keeping cattle within bounds
had the effect of preventing TIE boat
from passing and this considerably i'm
peded their progress but aside from this
they made the fifty or more miles of
waterway without incident, and have
passed the remainder of the week with
relatives in this city. They are tanned

"PORTO R|CANS LOVE
AMERICANS AND
LIBERTY"
Secretary HartzeIl Tells
OF Our New Pos
sessions.
PRODUCTS OF THE ISLAND

The secretary of state for Porto Ri
co, Hon. Chas. Hartzell, who is Wis
iting his parents in Canton, recently
expressed himself to a representative
of this paper, as highly gratified with
the results the American government
is producing upon the inhabitants Of
that island both in industry and edu-
cation. Their exports" he said, "are
increasing at an almost incredible
rate. The sugar export alone will
amount to upwards of s12,OOO,OOO this
year while the tobaccos and coffee
raised on the islahd this season are
worth nearly $1O,0O0,0OO, most of it
coming to American ports" He said
further that although the American
population number but $500, they
control almost all Of the manufactures
and much land.
Concerning the natives, he added
that even though the people are most
ly Spanish and engaged in agriculture
they are not of a low class. They
love music, art and poetry. Among
their calender of holidays are many
musical festivals at which the natives
show remarkable talent for music.
Their best trait is their love for
learning. Already 1900 primary
schools have been established with a
total enrolment of $4,000. They learn
languages very readily and have taken
strong liking for English. To sat-
isfy this desire the government has
established a college on the island
| three departments of which will be
opened this fall Among the teachers
will be several natives now being edu
Gated in American colleges.
The association of the inhabitant.
Of Porto Rico with Americans, Mr.
HartZell says, Is becoming more fire.
quent and he predicts that the mag
nificent gardens of the island will b'
great summer resort for Americans
within few years. According to th'
secretary's judgment the best drilled
regiment in our regular army is th'
one composed Of 1000 native Porto Ri
cans, differed by Americans.
In conclusion he said: 81 have tn,
greatest hopes for a brilliant future o
the island, because they love Americ,
and the Americans, and adore our ide;
of liberty."*+

Pittsburg, Pa, Nov. Ga party of
Chesapeake and Ohio railroad officials
today inspected the Monongahala river
brancn of the Pittsburg and Lake Erie
railroad.
This has been extended to Fayette
City, Pa, near the West Virginia line
President Geo. w. Stevens, of the
Chesapeake and Ohio said:
'The road | represent will eventu-
ally be built to Pittsburg. Our prop
osition is to connect the Green Briar
branch at Durbin with the Mononga-
hala branch at Redstone. Such a route
would open the whole south to Pitts
burg. The line will eventually be

NEW REPUBLIC SENDS
FIRST MINISTER
TO THE u. S.
Panama Takes Advan-
tage Of Recognition
NAVAL CONTEST COMING

Panama, ..ov. 6.--The men in
lie of Panama lost no time in taking
advantage of the recognition of the
he Facto government by the United
States. Immediately upon receipt of
the news that the United States had
acted, Felipe Bunnean Valilla was Sc
lected as minister to the United
States. He qualified at once and will
sail for Washington on the first
steamer.
The news that President Roosevelt
had recognized the new government
was not unexpected but it aroused
much enthusiasm when 1t was made
public here. There was a feeling of
confidence that this action means that
the permancy of the new republic Is
assured and that If help is needed to
maintain Its independence it will be
quickly forthcoming.
All is quiet on the isthmus tonight
and the streets of both Colon and Pan
anna are practically deserted. Moth
ing has been heard from the Colon
bian gunboat Bogota since she left
buena Ventura last night, but she Il
not believed to have gone far as she
was supplied with but very little fuel
for her boilers. The Padilla, which
constituted the entire navy of the Pan,
ANA republic is preparing to sail In
search of her and sink or capture her
1t is recognized that it would be Q
stroke of enterprise to add the Bogota
to the new navy and it will not be sur
prising if an attempt of this character
| Is made.

MAMA NECKLACE
Curious Present Received by Canton
Woman From Friend In
the Orient.

Mrs. Eleanor M. Lawrence, former
ly Of this city, and who is now voy-
aging in the Pacific, sent an interest
ing gift In the form of necklace
composed of seeds from the Eanger
tree, to her niece. Mrs. Evanston
Barrie. These seeds are fiat and rath-
er irregular in shape although pre-
senting uniform appearance, and are
very dark brown verging into black.
The tree on which they grow in Hon
olulu is sometimes called the opium
tree and is considered by the natives
to be the Mamma of Bible note. The
seed is originally enveloped by a
white pasty substance which the ma
tives relish immensely. The neck
lace, while not pretty, is greatly priced
by the owner on account of its asso-
citation with Honolulu and the super
stitions held in regard to 1t by the ma
tives thereof.*"
