WHEN COL. TOM FITCH
CALLED ON Roosevelt
Saw Him in Company With Joaquin Miller, the
Poet---Marcus Island and Other Matters
of interest to Local People.

An interview for the Advertiser? ]

those who travel upon the surface.
even when they travel in the swift
! sailing Korea.
While absent 1 passed two weeks in
Washington and New York My visit
was on professional business, and 1
did not attempt to do politics. I had
an interview with the President and
found him we'll informed concerning
men and measures here.
While absent I passed two weeks in
ing my turn for the appointed inter-
view, my old friend, Joaquin Miller,
ed "reminiscences.
By and by President Roosevelt came
into the room, and he walked by Sem
ators and Representatives to take Joa-
quin by both hands. He said to him:
Mr.. Miller, your poetry descriptive of
the far West is, in my opinion, the best
ever written upon that subject. have
quoted some lines from it in an article
I have written" Then he quoted from
memory a dozen lines, and the old fell
low, blushed like girl, and saying Mr..
President, that is all 1 can stand now"
broke for the door. Lovely, was it not?

THE COINAGE BILL.
The Hawaiian coinage bill, which
opinion, the only measure affecting Ha-
wall that will be considered during the
present session of Congress- I think
that Notwithstanding the recommends
tions of the Senatorial Commission, the
land laws of the United States will not
be extended to these Islands at present,
and that the National leper asylum bill
will be killed in committee
CHINESE EXCLUSION.
I am not hopeful of any modification
of the Chinese exclusion law so as to !
admit Chinese laborers to Hawaii, I'M
less China shall refuse to renew the |
present treaty and demand to be placed |
on an equal footing with Japan, and |
shall threaten, if the present exclusion |
laws shall be perpetuated without |
treaty, that she will exclude American |
American ships, and Amer
lean goods from her ports. The injus-
tice and inpolicy of admitting Japanese !
and excluding Chinese is being extern
siVely discussed in California.
RECIPROCITY WITH CUBA.
1t seems to be conceded that there
will be reciprocity with Cuba, but it is
not believed that the price of raw sugar
will be materially affected thereby. The
sugar trust wants reciprocity, and my
is that whatever the sugar
trust wants from Congress the sugar
rust will be apt to obtain.

SANTIAGO, SPANISH STYLE.
The Great sea BATTLE Faithfully De-
Ecribed by "A Historian of the
HidnIgOs.

An American who was touring Eu-
rope last summer came across new
version of the naval battle of Santiago
when he reached Madrid. It was writ
ten by a Spanish historian, who said;
"When our feet steamed out, the
enemy at once sought to run away, as
a matter of course, but our ships
dashed among them firing right and
left.
"Some 20 of the Yankee vessels had
been sent to the bottom, and the rest
of the feet were flying in terror from
the awful missiles flung from our guns
when Providence willed it that every
Spanish officer and man should he
overcome with exhaustion
''ln this awful emergency there was
nothing left for our brave admiral but
to signal to each of his ships to run
ashore. They accordingly sought the
beach, and being very sleepy and dis
couraged our gallant men waded
ashore and concluded to stay there
spanish honor was saved again, and
the queen regent ordered the bells
rung in every town in Spain for three
successive days. 1t is rumored that
three of Senor SIMPSONS ships got
away but this cannot be verified"

AN UNKNOWN cENTENAR1AN.
New Grenada semi-spandard who
Claimed TO Have Lived 1s4
Years In 1878.

The interest in centenarians is al
ways great, and, indeed, to some peo-
pie fascinating As recently as 1878
a certain Michael Soils, of semi-Span-
ish origin, resided in Bogoto Colom-
bia, and was alleged to be 1s4 years
old. La Epoca new Granada jour
nal, wrote at the time of one Miguel
Lollo, whom we take to be identical
with Michael Soils: 'The signature
of this venerable aneiano (ancient) is
affixed to a deed relating to the
foundation of a convent, and is dated
1712. DR.. Hernandez, who had heard
about this Miguel Lollo, was desir-
Gus of making his acquaintance, and
found him busy gardening. His skin
is like parchment and his hair as
white as snow" 1t initiates against
the genuineness Of Michael Soils that
during the last GO years or so pre-
vious to what we may describe as his
discovery no one had ever seen or
heard of him, says the London Lam
Get. He is apparently unknown to
such well-known writers on centenar-
ians as Easton, of Salisbury, and
sharon Turner.

PASSION AND THE HEALTH.
Some Emotions TEND to Prolons Life
While others Have the
Opposite Eject.

"The passions effect on the health
is not sufficiently regarded" said a
physician, according to the Philadel.
phia Record. "The passion which is
best for the health is avarice. 1t
keeps one cool, encourages regular
and industrious habits, leads to alb.
stemiousness and makes against all
excess. And hence the avaricious
the misers, live to a great age. The
misers of history were all noted fol
their longevity. Rage is very bad for
one. This passion causes an irregu.
lar, intermittent beating of the heart
and the intermittency in time may
become chronic. Hatred creates
fever. If we hate we grow lean
This hot passion eats us like a flame
Fear is bad for the nerves. the heart
and the brain, and, therefore, we
should never permit ourselves to bC
afraid. But the strangest effects Of
all have been caused by the passion
of grief. The medical books recorC
cases where, coming suddenly, in 6
violent shock, it has caused a loss Of
blood from the lungs in one person
paralysis of the tongue in another
and failure of sight or temporary
blindness in a third"

THE DAYS OF MOTOR CARS.
How We shall Get About at That
Period OF the Worlds
Hlatory.

When the motor car shall have GUST
ed the horse vehicle. says Henry Nor
man in the Worlds Work, there will
be no need for families to herd to-
gether. To make a call 30 miles dis
tant win be nothing when everyone
has an automobile, and consequently
we shall be able to live with great ben
eft to ourselves in charming but now
hopelessly out-of-the-way country
places, and yet be in no way cut of
from the advantages of town life.
Theaters, concerts, good doctors, good
shops viii be within reach wherever
we may pitch our tents; there will be
no need 60 disfigure the landscape with
networks OF railways. Our streets
VIII be cleaner and quieter, and our
goods delivered much more expedi-
tiously. According to Mr.. Norman.
our grandchildren win wonder how
we dragged along at all in the days
when we were dependent on horses,
trains and bicycles.

FELINE FRIEND on coNvIors.
Bie Cray Cnt 10 the ret Of Prisoners
IN the Michigan city Ond)
Penitentinry.

The pet Of the prisoners at the In
diana state prison at Michigan City
is gray cat, said TO be the largest
animal of the kind in the state. 1t
weighs % pounds, is nine years old
and has been inside the big walls
since it was a kitten. All over the
big institution it is known as rige,
says q local report.
Warden Reid. who values the an
imal very highly, says that Tige has
a queer fondness for the prisoners,
one of whom claims TO be its master
and from whom it receives all kinds
of attention. The cat makes up with
very few Of the officers, allows no
familiarities on the part of strangers
or visitors, but in every case ex-
poets the caress Of the prisoner and
gets it.
In its early days it was the cats
custom to visit the cellhouse and to
make friendly calls along the ranges
rubbing its fur at each grated door
and singing its little song as if il
wished to purr out its sympathy foi
the confined. But there came a time
when its place was usurped by an
other of its kind and this resulted il
the old haunts being abandoned
This was brought about by the cell
house keeper bringing TO his abod,
a kitten and the dislike occasioneC
by the newcomer has been unrelent
ing. Tige may now be seen about
the yard, coming and going without
hindrance. Most of the time it stayi
about the pumphouse, where its mas
ter holds sway and where no othei
feline may intrude and get ava.

THE TITLFs OF MAYORS.
Proper Form OF Addressing Muni-
ciDal Heads In Leading Eng
Iish Cities.

When, asks the London correspond
ent of the Manchester Guardian, is a
mayor entitled to the prefix Fright
worshipful?" The question is not a
purely academic one. says the London
Telegraph as I have seen the fright
worshipful the mayor of St. Pancras"
in print lately The mayors Of Lon
don boroughs, following the example
Of those in the country, are generally
content to be styled ''worshipful" The
lord mayors who have arisen in the
last ten years at Manchester, Liverpool.
Leeds, Birmingham, Sheffield and Bris-
tol copy the precedents of London and
York, and are fright honorable" ="
Strictly, believe, the mayors of some
ancient cities-such as Exeter, Chester
and Norwich-are by custom styled
right worshipful." Bristol was one
of these cities till the creation of it's
lord mayoralty three years ago. These
fine distinctions recall a story of the
rural deans Of Oxford diocese in the
days of Bishop Samuel Wilberforce.
These rural deans represented to their
diocesan that they had a grievance in
the fact that. whereas archbishops
were most reverend" bishops fright
reverend and deans Every reverend. -
they had no title to distinguish them
from their fellow-clergy The bishop
suggested "rather reverend" Then
The subject dropped.
