Think ST. Louis is Afoat.

New York, Jan. 16.-Clement A. Girls
com, of the American line, said today:
1T has been said that the st. Louis
has leaky boilers. | do not know that
she has. There are thousands of small
tubes on which the flames play to heat
the water, If, as some times hap
pens, some of these tubes leak enough
to damp the fire, it is necessary to plug
them up. This does not mean that
there is serious damage, but it does
near that you have less surface to
heat the water and so less steam. |

but that she is not making very fast

vantage, stepped from the flyer at the
Santa Fe station this morning and
looked about him with an air Of supe-

thirst covered his countenance. His
face lit up with a smile as If he had been
struck by a happy thought. His gaze
wandered to a window in front of
which he had been standing, and the
smile expanded. No wonder, because
a beautiful. charming young lady sat
with her sweet face pressed against
the strong window pane, and it was
like a dream of roses. Reassured by
those tantalizing eyes he made rapid
strides, which soon led him to the AL
varado cafe. In this elegantly equip
ped palace of flowing sweets our
groom soon forgot his bride, who still
remained seated in the same position
looking longingly in the direction of
her stately new husband. The water
of eXhilarating inyigoration prolonged
his visit longer than he intended.

The flyer had departed and was

such veterans as are unable to pay their

We want to raise seventy five or one

Jackson, May 7.-Since the with
drawal of Hon. A. S. Kyle of Pamela
from the race for Mississipi's "hoo-
doc" office, otherwise known as the
state traesurership, the campaign has
been given a renewed interest, and
promises to be one of the most spirited
of the state campaign. Two able men
are in the field and are conducting a
most energetic canvass. Gen. Jacob
Sharp, one of the surviving general
officers of the confederate army, a
hero of a half hundred battles, and
a legislator of lifelong experience,
seems to have renewed his youth, and
is visiting every part of the state, en-
during all the hardships of travel
with as much fortitude as any of the
younger men in the field, and a
strong support is being rallied to his
side. He is opposed by Hon. W. j.
Miller, young man of splendid
character and ability, and the fight is
being conducted on high and gen.
tlemanly plane, somewhat in contrast
to several of the fights now being
waged.

fore August legislature is likely to

TIMELY RESCUE.
Twenty-Three Persons Saved From

New York, May 6.-Twenty-three
survivors of the crew of twenty-six of
the French fishing brig lille de Terre
Neuve of st. Servean, France, arrived
hear today on the German American
Petroleum Company's steamer Phoe-
bus from Hamburg. The lille de
Terra Neuve was swept by hurrican

washed overheard. OF these four were
rescued and three drowned. On the

bus and the survivors were taken on
board the steamer with much diff
Guilty and the brig was set on fire.
Capt. Schierhorst of the Phoebus
says that at O'Clock on the morning
of April 20 fair of light was sighted
dead ahead, evidently a signal of
distress. The Phoebus bore down and
found small dismasted sailing vessel,
which proved to be the lille de Terre
Neuve, listed heavily to port rolling
frightfully with the seas washing over
her. The condition. of her crew
appeared very dangerous and they
were seen grouped on the after part
of the vessel. A lifeboat was sent to
the vessel, to which line was passed.
Some of the crew jumped into the sea
and were hauled one after another to
the boat and brought to the steamer.
When the second trip was made day
light broke and the work proceeded
more rapidly. Four trips were made,
the Captain being the last to leave.
He maintained strict discipline

Hymelia crevasse, thirty five miles

until the river is again within its
banks. Over $3.50, 600 has been expend-

While the effort has not succeeded the
proportions of the break have been so
much reduced as to materially curtail
the damage done.

sions embodied in the new primary
election law to prevent political man.
ipulstion and swapping Of prestige is
we'll illustrated in the letter of Hon.
s. M. Roane endorsing the guberna-
torial candidacy of Maj J. K. Varda-
man after the retirement of his law
partner, Hon. A. T. Fox, from the
race.
The evident attempt to throw a
part of the Fox following into the
Vardaman column has resulted in an
ignominious failure. The prediction
was almost unanimously ventured at
the time that Mr.. Fox retired that
the bulk Of his strength would remain
in the conservative column, and this
hsa proven to be the case, despite the
letter of Judge Roane. The candidate
who was profted most largely by the
Fox retirement is Judge Critz, and
Senator Noel has also gained some
foothold on account of the new status
of affairs.
The present phase of matters again
illustrates that the real fight is be-
tween the conservative and radical
elements of the state, the former rep
resented by Judge Critz and Senator
Noel, and the latter by Major Varda-
man, and the battle will be continued
quite merrily on his plane until the

ON ACCOUNT OF HIS TEMPER,
Senator Moneys Friends are Urging
Him Not to Accept Longino's
Challenge.
Special to the Daily Progress.

Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, May 7.-Senator Money
is being urged by some of his friends
and supporters to accept Governor
Longino's challege for a joint debate
during the senatorial campaign, while
other friensd are advising him not to
do so, believing that it would be det-
rimental to his interests to engage in
speech making tour of the state
with his opponent.
Senator Money well-known dispo-
sition to lose his temper, which has
been exhibited several times during
the present campaign, is one of the
reasons offered why he should not fare
we'll in joint debate. With advanc-
ing years Senator Moneys temper has
not improved, and there have been
several parallel cases in Mississippi
politics where candidates for high
office were defeated on account of toe
much temper and violent utterances
concerning their opponents, notable
case in mind being that of Private
John Allen in the campaign with
| Senator McLaurin. Governor Lon.
gino is also somewhat high spirited
and he possesses the faculty of main
tanning an unruffled front, which
will aid him greatly in the battle
with his frey tempered opponent;.
