The Launch "Stella."

This is the name of a new electric
launch just received by Mr.. Coe D.
Smith, and which he has placed on
lake Stella, after which the pretty
little boat is named.
The boat arrived Saturday night
and on Monday was brought across
town and launched in the little lake.
1t is Is feet in length, and has an en-
CINE calculated to drive it ahead at
al Smile clip. Mr.. Smith will get
considerable pleasure from the little
craft, but all who know him and his
manner of doing things are betting
that the winter visitors and towns
people will get the greater amount
of pleasure, for Mr.. Smith, as all
know from past experience, is gen.
erous in his Invitations to the peo-
pie to enjoy his possessions with him.
He had a launch here in the winter
of 1900 and 1901.
The new boat was made by Palmer
Bros, CoScos, Conn, and is of beauti-
full model and calculated to carry a
party of eight or ten persons com
fortably. 1t will prove leading at
traction of the place.

has been leased for the winter by
Geo. A. Boyden, of Baltimore, coun-
sci for the Westinghouse Air Brake
Co., who is expected to arrive this
week with his mother and Mr.. and
Mrs. Gipson, also of Baltimore. Mr..
Boyden, besides being eminent as u
patent attorney, is also an inventor,
and the Westinghouse Air Brake is
one of the results of his inventive
genius. He was also interested with
Mr. Frank Brown, u former Crescent
City boy, now also passing the win
ter here, in the invention of the new
type casting machine, and, with Mr..
Brown, is a director of that company.
Mr.. Boyden will not stay in the city
longer than to see that his mother
is comfortably settled.

With an Exception.
Mr.. Holley looked at his grandson
with a mixture Of amusement and re-
prOach on his shrewd old face. 1t was
dusk in the barn, time for conf
dences. 81 dunno where in all the
earth you got such notions, sonny" the
old man said. Not from your mas
folks or your pas either. There never
was any talk Of belief in signs and SUI
perstitions in either the Holley or the
Fawcett stock, that's sure 1t must
have come from that foreign lady they
had to teach you, expect"
"And you don't believe there's any
harm in birds flying into the house
or breaking a mirror or seeing Il black
cat, grandpa?" asked the little boy
earnestly. "And don't you care wheth-
er a pin sticks straight up in the floor
or which shoulder you see the moon
over or whether you get anything on
you wrong side out? Not any Of those
things"
"All foolishness," said the old man,
with reassuring pat Of the hot little
hand "I'm glad you've talked it out
with me- sonny. Now, you just put 1t
out of your head, and I'll tell you what
I'll do. When we go up to the house.
I'll give you a little, old penny I've been
saving for you for lucky piece. You
just carry it in your pocket all the
time, change it from one suit Of clothes
to another, and see what it IL bring
you"
do they really bring luck, grand
pa?" asked the little boy.
Course they do" said Mr.. Holley
firmly. when we get another spare
time, I'll relate to you few cases that's
come under my own eye Of lives saved
by 'cm. and so forth. Course they do"

Frank Brown Here.

Frank Brown of Baltimore, accom-
panied by his physician, DR.. Nc
Donald, and his friend, Geo. r.
Crew, also of Baltimore, arrived in
the city last week. DR.. Mcdonald
and Mr.. Grew returned north by Sat
urday's train. Mr.. Brown will spend
the winter here as the guest of Mrs.
J. M. Maull. Most of the older citi-
Gems of Crescent City will remember
Frank Brown. He lived here with
his parents as a boy and grew to
manhood in our midst. In he early
sos, he, with Allen b. Maui. - lrted
the first paper here, a little affair, to
be sure, but it was q newspaper and
a good one. 1t gave Mr.. Brown the
incentive and the idea for his life
work. He later became first class
printer and was foreman of u large
plant in Palatka. Then he drifted to
Baltimore, and IA couple of years ago,
in that city, he invented a machine
for casting type that is not only 60
ing to revolutioniZe the type making
business, but is making his fortune.
Brown has some Of the biggest CAPT
trliSts of Baltimore back of him, and
his machine is pronounced sue
Cess But he got ill-hard, over
work did it-and has come back to
the scenes of his boyhood days to
recuperate. The News and all the
people of Crescent City welcome him,
and trust he will get well speedily
and live long to enjoy the fortune
which is so rapidly coming his way.

WITH MEMBERS or CONGRESS-
President Discusses Affairs on the
lSthmus

Washington. Nov. 16.-President
Roosevelt embraced the opportunity
afforded by calls upon him of a large
representation of both the senate and
the house of representatives to dis
euss with members both of the ma
lorlty and the minority the situation
which has arisen out of the establish
nent OF the republic of Panama. The
nature OF the action. if any. to be
taken by congress during the ap-
proaching session on the Panama
canal question has not been deter
mined definitely; but it is known that
IL IS constantly the subject of con-
ferences between the president and
members of congress.
A difference of opinion has devel.
oped regarding the authority con-
TERED by the Spooner act upon the
president. 1t is known that the ad-
holds that the Spooner
act furnishes ample warrant for the
president to negotiate a treaty with
Panama and to pay the money made
available for canal purposes by the
law to Panama instead of to Colombia.
