August Belmont Declines Position.
 German May Serve.
 NEW YORK, July 22.-August Bel mont has settled all talk about himself in connection with the national chair manship by telling his friends that he would not be considered for the place. It is understood that MT. Belmont ia vors Thomas Taggart for chairman.
 Unless Taggart should voluntarily withdraw it Is not believed that Sena- tor German would allow his name to be used, and perhaps not even in that contingency. At the same time some of the eastern men still think that the Maryland senator is a possibility and do not relinquish the hope that lie will manage the campaign.
 With German absolutely out, atten- ton will be turned to William K. Shee- han, who it is believed would be Judge Parker's personal choice on account of their long friendship. But unless some direct word comes from Judge Parker to the effect that he wants German or Sheehan, Taggart's friends will keep him in the field and insist upon elect ing him.

New at the Home of Her Mother.
 Baroness dc Roques.
 ROUEN, France, July 22. Mrs Flor ence Maybrick has arrived here from London. The greatest precautions had been taken to keep her movements se- cret. She. did not travel by way of New Haven, as do the majority of passengers, but instead crossed from Southampton, arriving at Havre, where she took an express train for Rouen
 Mrs. Maybrick was awaited at the station by her mother, the Baroness de Roques, with whom she drove in a closed carriage to the house of the baroness, who has been living for some time at Rouen under the name of Mime de Moremont. The house is situated on the Rue de Tannery and is surround cd by high walls, completely shutting off the neighboring residences.
 Visitors to the house were refused admittance, being informed by an old family servant that the baroness had left Rouen some time ago and would return within week. Neither Mrs. Maybrick nor the baroness goes outside the grounds ce the residence.

FIFTY CENTS ON A DOLLAR.

"No comedian can be funnfer than an African citizen when he tries to be serious on a large scale, said M. k. Anderson, formerly of Kansas, yes terday. Negroes are not as good im- ifators as the Chinese and their at tempts at Caucasian dignity are some times the perfection of burlesqne.
 Down in Oklahoma few years ago q colored citizen opened a bank. He did not have much capital, but he succeeded in doing considerable busl- ness among the colored brethren. FI- nally he went broke, and one morning his customers found a notice on the door announcing his suspension. In tho course of the day a white man went to the bank to get pair of new boots which he had left inside the door the day before, while in there to cash a check which some colored man had given him. He had hard work in arousfng the proprietor. who was known to be inside, but kept up such q din that the general manager of the defunct financial institution finally opened a small crack in the door and explained:
 i've am suspended! Yo' kin see de notice dar on de door
 "I don't want to do any business with the bank. only want a pair of boots I left in there yesterday, and Pm going to have them.'
 "sWait minute said the bankrupt financfer. closing the door. Ill a few seconds he opened it again just few inches and threw out one boot say ing:

TOURIST TRAINS IN U. $.

Goodbye, my dear" .Send me a souvenir from Paris Don't miss Bayreuth." Goodbye, goodbye" And much more to the same purport. The chorus that arose from group of neat and trim (not to say prim) women standing on the pier, as they waved farewell to fellow schoolmarm start ing for Europe to spend her yacauon.
 No, I'm not going abroad this year" said Miss Philosophy as they turned landward when the gang plank had been pulled i'll and the big sliding door had been closed, shutting off further view of the girl on the steamships deck. You know, went over last summer, and had splendid time, too; but can't go every year-in fact l think shouldn't care to go every year if could Miss Methods and Miss Natural Science went with me, you know. and we travelled second class all over Europe-from Rome to Paris, and London to Edinboro,' that is, you know. Since 1 came back I've often won dered why we have no second-class cars on our railroads here at home. There are lots of interesting places I'd just love to see in my native land. But goodness! the distances are so enorm- Ous and the railroad fares are so high just can't do it. If you want to travel comfortably on the income of a New York school teacher. you have to go to Europe. It really is too bad there's no second class travel in this country"
 "Oh, but there is,' piped up a de mure looking little woman. You must never have been out west. There's plenty of second class travel out there in what they call tourist cars They're really Pullmans, only instead of having plush uphoIstering, the seats are of cane or wicker and they are much more comfortable and much cleaner, in hot weather especially, than the hot, dust-catching plush.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-07-22
"on savoro1 of +ha roods ubioh U, ;

"On several of the roads which run these tourist cars the cost of berth in one of them from Chicago to San Francisco is only $7, which is just half the regular Pullman car rate. There is usually a small difference of a fifth or a sixth in the railroad fare, too, so that travelling in tourist cars is de- cidedly cheaper than going first class. especially if you go any great distance.
 Nice people, too, for the most part, travel that way; and they have a jolly good time. Many people take provis ions with them and make a picnic Of it. Some get one meal day at the stations The cars are not on tlyW linn ited trains, you see, and stops are made for meals at stations where the com pany runs restaurants. Some eat all their meals on the train; some eat three times day at the stations. Tn cold weather you can cook things Tn the car In summer tea and coffee can be prepared on alcohol stoves.
 The passengers in one of these cars soon become friendly, and in few days two Or three small parties will combine and, have a general picnic. It kills time agreeably while travelling, and when stop of twenty or thirty minutes is made at an eating station the picnickers, instead of rushing through a 75 cent meal, have time to get out and take look at the town.
 Such a car is always provided with q special tourist conductor, who intro duces passengers, points out places of interest, is bureau of information, tells one where to buy and how much to pay for curios, etc, and often sees women to their hotel or street cars at their destination.
 ''Trayeling i'll these tourist cars in the west is so interesting and jolly that often people who have berths in the regular Pullman cars spend most of their time when awake in the tourist car.
 'I travelled 5000 miles that way one summer, and never had better time in my life.''

DEEP SEA WATER AS ANTI FAT.
New Cure for Corpulence the Fad of
 Theatrical Circles.

New Cure for Corpulence the Fad of
 Theatrical Circles.
 A new fad for reducing fat is caus- ing good deal of talk in theatrical cir scles. There is no business in which rat is so much handicap as on the stage. Some came forward few 1 months ago with a suggestion that deep sea water was a sure remedy, Now there are a half hundred fat actors and actresses trying it.
 Among themselves the players read | fly give the names of the deep sea water drinkers One of the heaviest drinkers is a young man swho starred in Broadway theater this season in q play, that required him to wear a khaki suit. All his friends noticed that the uniform fitted him too tightly and did not hesitate to tell him so. He has taken off sixteen pounds. =
 Dressmakers and taiIors with an idea of getting new orders for goods are suggesting deep sea water to fat customers.
 The dose is a WineglaSsful of deep sea water mixed with full glass Of ordinary water. Either not or cold. Even then the dose is so strong that for persons not abnormally stout it's use is recommended only three or four times a week.
 Buenos Ayres in South America is the accredited birthplace of the new anti-fat fad A New York actress who was there last December came home and told of. it. She has persuaded a popular Weberfieldian who was sent to New Jersey month ago to take off flesh to give up boating and country walks and return to the Great White Way for a course of deep sea water. Another burlesque actress who sailed OH the Eruria, took six bottles to Lon don with her. She wanted to be the first to tell about it there.
 The water the New Workers are drinking is said to be taken six miles off Sandy Hook. Only the deep sea water is efficacious. The stuff cannot cost much and the supply is not likely to run short as long as the good old Atlantic ocean stays i'll business York Press.
