silver Service for Launching Nay be
Furnished by Business Hen.

The State Business Mems associa-
ton is considering the advisability or
forming plan to raise funds to pur-
chase a silver service for the launch
ing of the new battleship. the Connec-
ticut, which will soon take place. 1t
IL known that this matter has been
discussed at length by prominent
memba1, of the different associations
in several cities and all appear to be
enthusiastic over the plan. They
think that the people OF Connecticut
should show in an unmtstakable man
ner that they are much interested In
the new ship which bears the name Of
their state. that they have certain
pride in it and want to see the ship
launched in proper style. A. ]. Muz-
w, president of the state association.
has written to President Nye of the
local association in regard to the
matter and how the Waterbury men,
bers consider the project. The reply
was favorable.
r. william Hampson, one Of the
leading local members, said to-day
that no effort had been made as yet
to collect funds, but the local mem
beers would do whatever the state
board Of directors should decide upon.
President A. J. Muzzy said: I'm
Outstanding that the state mas Ho
money appropriated for the purpose,
have suggested to the BUSINESS
Mems associations in the different
cities and towns that they act as a
medium through which the business
men of the state, irrespective OF as
Sociations or societies, should con-
tribute towards a fund for the pur-
chase of silver service for the new

American navy VIVA Lead.

LONDON, Aug, 9.--Captain Thomas
Allnutt Brassey, editor of the Naval
Annual, speaking at Garfield, said he
was convinced that within ten years
the command of the seas would have
passed from Great Britain to the Unit
ed States. The latter country, he de
clared, is now building more battle
ships than England is, and It's re.
sources are greater than are those of
Great Britain, whose only hope of
maintaining her supremacy on the sea
was federation through which the
colonies would aid in the building up
and maintenance Of the navy Of the
mother country.

Some time afterward the young ora

In which ladies largely pTedominated.
The room was warm and stuffy. In
the front rank sat the aged professor
with scholastic mien, his eye fixed ex-
pectantly upon his protege, his glance
seeming to reiterate that oft repeated
maxim, Speak what is uppermost."
The address was begun with fine eff
feet In the young mans best style and
most meIodious voice, but soon an air
Of nervousness and uneasiness began to
appear, and the orator grew warm and
hurried. There came a moment when
the flow Of fervid oratory instantly

SCARE
POLICE
Portland Doctor Makes Dis
cOvery That May Get
Him Famous

Three captains of police, as many
sergeants, several dozen of patrolmen
and the hundreds of prisoners who
annually find their way to the city
Jail, stand today in danger of losing
their lives, says the Oregonian. The
special instrument of death may be
tuberculosis, smallpox, leprosy, yellow
fever or the bubonic plague-and dis
ease presided over and controlled by
the amalgamated combine of microbes.
One of these days some man will shut.
fe of the mortal coil, there will be an
investigation, and the police commit
tee of the executive board will be liza.
bic to face a charge of manslaughter.
The horrible discovery was made
yesterday by "A physician who happen
ed to visit the police station in the in.
%terests of a man who was seeing
things. While the physician was there
it happened that a prisoner was re-
leased, and the man of medicine
watched the red tape process that is
gone through every time a man is
given his liberty after being incarcer.
ated in the city bastile. The physician
observed that the captain on duty re-
moved from "a certain drawer a can.
vass sack, that he took therefrom
divers and sundry papers, coins, to
bacco and all that had been in tho
prisoners pockets when he was arrest
ed. The physician stepped nearer to
examine the anvas bag. Then he
raised his hands in horror.
These canvas bags have been in use
for nearly a year. When a prisoner is
searched his effects are put in a bag,
and there they stay until he is again
at liberty. When the bags are thus
emptied they are, perhaps in the same
day, reflled with the property of an.
other prisoner. AS all classes Of PEG.
pie find their way into the city jail,
kinds Of property finds its way
the canvas bags. What yesterday
held the effects of a filthy, besotted,
diseased wretch, may today hold the
property of a man Of cleanliness an.
rested on suspicion, and when his
property is returned there are returned
with il microbes galore, who have
been nesting in the canvas saek since
the advent Of the effects Of the drunk.
The bags are dirty and everything
but pleasant TO handle.
"Those canvas bags are infested
millions and millions Of
microbes, said the physician. cit is
wonder that every man who handles
is not dead. One Of those bags
could spread disease throughout the
sity and create an epidemic that
would isolate Portland from the rest
II the world. One man carries away
The vernin on his personal papers and
his purse. He distributes coins
