Captains Vito Died Near Islands.

Captain Grant, master of the bark
Ivanhoe, was very sad man when he
entered this port yesterday afternoon
after long voyage of siXty-five days
from Chill with a cargo of nitrates.
For ten days he had been in sight of
the Islands but contrary winds and
Gains prevented him from making port.
Five days ago his wife died from heart
trouble. Her body was not consigned
to a grave at sea as Captain Grant eX-
pected to make port at any time. The
body was embalmed, sailor fashion,
and put in n caulked coffin. With this
sad freight the vessel arrived. An eff
fort will be made today to get permis-
sion to have the body cremated. Cap
tain Grant is well and favorably known
in this port and the masters of vessels
here will probably meet this morning
and assist in making arrangements for
the funeral of Mrs. Grant.

Private Postal Carde,

The postmaster has received the fol-
lowing from Washington, d. c.:
The law officer of this department
advises that cards issued by private
persons bearing on the address side the
words United States of America" are

unavailable. (Sec. 1891. Postal Laws and
Regulations.)
However, in order to give owners of
such cards reasonable time to dispose
of those on hand, postmasters will ac-
cept them for mailing until July l,

proper rate. on and after July !, 1904,
such cards will be treated as unmail-
able at any rate of postage.
Postmasters are directed to give this

No claim Upon Treasury.

The Independent of Friday charged
the Attorney General with having had a
voucher approved by Auditor Fisher for
the dinner to Secretary Shaw's son,
after having taken the credit to himself
of being the host OF the entertainment.
Nothing is known at the Audit Office
OF such voucher.
Il wish there were such thing
Attorney General Andrews laughingly
said when spoken to on the subject.
AS matter OF fact Mr. Andrews
never claimed the credit of having in
dividualy been the entertainer of Mr..
Shaw, He gave the news to an Adver-
tiser reporter on the day of the dinner,
stating explicitly that it was joint al
fair of the heads OF departments then in
town.

ROOSEVELT'S CHANCES ARE
IMPROVING DAY BY DAY

ticeable here this winter. 1t alone
would be sufficient argument against
him entering a vigorous presidential
canvass. He has not been in the Sem
ate half of the time since Congress
convened. His attack of the grip in
New York city has been followed by
a recurrent attack and he is now in
bed at the Arlington. One hears nova
days, however. an occasional sugges-
ton that he may be forced upon the
tail of the Roosevelt ticket. President
Roosevelt is capable of that sort of a
political coup, should he find the dele
gates at the Chicago convention in a
mood to yield to that sort of request
from him.
Thus far there has been no very seri-
Gus discussing of vice presidential cam
didates for either party and no decided
sentiment for any particular men. Ohio,
Indiana, or Illinois will in all probabili-
ty furnish the Republican candidate.
There are three possibilities from
Ohio-Judge Taft, soon to become Sec
rotary of War; Senator Hanna, and
Gov Herrick; two from Indiana-Sen-
ator Fairbanks, or Gov. Durbin; and
one from Illinois-"Uncle Joe" Cannon,
Speaker of the House. Gov. Durbin
and Gov. Herrick are the two strongest
possibilities. Gov. Herrick was the
friend of Mckinley. Men of the busi-
ness world have great confidence in
him. Some think he will prove the
nominee.
Staggered by the blow of Bryan's
Lincoln speech, in which he declared
for the reaffirmaton of the Kansas City
platform and likewise by the refusal
of Tammany to accede to the Parker
boom, which seemed to be we'll under
way, Democrats here are trying to re-
cover their senses. Democratic politi-
cal gossip has for several days been
at a standstill. The subcommittee, in
charge of arrangements for the st.
Louis convention, are having the same
troubles with hotels that the Republic
can subcommittee has been having with
Chicago. The hotel keepers are plan
ming to take all the money the dele
gates and visitors have in their
clothes. Strenuous efforts are being
made to check that plan of financial
campaign and the Democratic COM
mittee is threatening to take the con-
vention away from st. Louis, just as
Senator Hanna threatened to do to
Chicago. Undoubtedly there will be a
compromise and an amicable adjust
ment, wien the Democratic committee
gets to st. Louis early in February to
look the ground over.
The slow progress Congress is max
ing with it's legislative business makes
it more than possible that the session
will extend right up to the time that
the conventions are assembling. Demo-
Gratis may try to force session be-
yund the time of the convention in or
Ger to make political capital for the
campaign after the issues have been
outlined in the conventions. Republic
cans, however, will likely be able to
check that. June Is, one week before
the Republican convention, is regarded
now as the probable date when Con-
gres- will get away

BREAKS THE RECORD
A TWENTIETH CENTURY FLYER
IN THE MEDICAL FIELD.
Rheumatism Rapidly and Rad
ically Cured-Quick Work of
Famous Fami y.

Convenience, comfort, safety, speed
are demanded by the travelling public
in Our rapid century and the keenest
intellects constantly at work on these
problems are making wonderful pro-
gress in the construction of the steam
ship and the locomotive Like results
are sought in medicines and DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People are
astonishing the world by the triumphs
they are winning in the rapid cure OF
obstinate maladies, such as rheumatism.
With speed they combine convenience,
perfect safety and cheapness.
Here is fresh proof OF their concen-
trated virtues: Mrs. Margaret Gantz,
OF No. 1927 Bodeman street, Burling-
woman, who about two and hall
years ago found herself in danger OF
losing her power to work altogether
She says: Il got rheumatism which
made my knees and elbows very stiff
and painful. | had difficulty in raising
my arms and | could hardly lift my
feet over my doorstep. l ought to
have gone to bed, but l couldn't al
ford to do that, so | forced myself to
work in spite OF the pain and stiffness.
After suffering for about six months, l
was told about DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People by a friend, who said
she had been cured by them. On her
advice, | bought one box and in two
weeks after | began to use them | was
well and l have had no need to use
them now for nearly two years. DR..
Williams Pink Pills are good med
icine and il | ever have rheumatism
again l will get box right away. l
have told many friends what they did
for me and l am glad to have every
body know"
This is valuable news to all who suf-
fer from rheumatism. These pills have
also cured stubborn cases OF locomotor
ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus'
dance, sciatica, neuralgia, nervous head.

forms of weakness in male or female.

Charges Against Gcodnow.

Mr.. John Goodnow, Of Minneapolis
consul-general of Shanghai, China, has
| recently returned to the United States
| to defend himself against various char
ges that have been preferred against
him, involving the abuse of consular
prerogatives. The President and the
| Secretary of State have determined to
make thorough investigation into the
conduct, not only of Mr.. Goodnow, but
also of a number of other representa-
| tives Of the diplomatic corps in the Far
East, with the purpose Of ascertaining
| the truth Of the reports. Among the
others who have been accused are
Robert M. McWade, of Philadelphia,
consul-general at Canton; and Carl
johnson Of Colorado, vice-consul at
Annoy. The charges preferred against
| these officials are OF as serious a ma
| ture as those recently preferred against
| the employees Of the Postoffice Depart
ment, and the investigation promises
to be as interesting. Vice-consul John
| son Is accused of having issued false
| certificates to the Chinese who have
| been entering the Philippines. Similar
| charges, coming from the Philippine
Civil Government, also implicate Mr..
| Wade. A Shanghai lawyer has made
affidavits that Mr.. Goodnow charged
5000 for recording the sale of a ship,
and got his fee. Passports for several
| Russian subjects are said to have been
! secured from Consul Goodnow, only on
| the payment of eXtortionate sums of
money. This news will come as a
| shock to the American people who have
always believed from what they have
heard of Mr.. Goodnow's conduct dur
ing the Boxer outrages, in the manly
character of Consul Goodnow. 1t is
unfortunate that such publicity should
be given to a case of this kind, as it Is
| beginning to look as though there was
no honor left in public office. The re-
cent scandals in the postal service, in
the Indian land agency, and in the case
Of General Wood give the impression
that the great majority of public office
holders, especially those holding high
positions, have been making use of
their responsible commissions only to
, further private ends. Perhaps how
I ever, it is better to have done with
the unpleasantness at once, that the
investigation be a lesson to all office
holders who are contemplating imita-
ting the example of their superiors.-

A SMALL BOY
AND HIS MOTHER

One would take him to be about
twelve years old as he sauntered
around the jail yard The jailor said
that the youngster had been a very
bad boy. He had been committed to
the Reform School for theft.
40, / guess he enjoys his stay here"
remarked the turnkey, but we will
ship him down to the country pretty
soon. The only objection 1 have to
him Is that he spends his time in the
cell at night talking. He keeps all
the other prisoners awake. Hist, here's
his mother
An elderly lady entered the jail yard.
She had two small urchins with her.
She went to her boy and held out
large pail to him. The young rascal
had the cover of this off in an instant.
He was soon hard at work devouring
pies. hard boiled eggs, and sundry
dainties which are not on the Jaifs
bill of fare. In the meanwhile the
mother was giving him homely moth
erly lecture. She told him what she
wished him to do. She cried over him.
Two younger brothers looked on with
wonderment plainly indicated in their
eyes. But the young Reform School
scamp put in all his time on the feed
By and by the mother thought it
time to go. She continued to cry and
stopping over the urchin gave him an
affectionate kiss. A second later and
the boy was laughingly jamming more
pie into his mouth.
The poor woman walked sadly out Of
the Jail. The boy turned around and
deliberately winked at a hardened
drunk who seemed to laugh out to him.
You're all right sonny, you are close
on my tracks" Then he put his thumb
to his nose and wiggled his fingers at
the retreating form.

(Mail Special to AdvertiSer.)
WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. "a
National politics of the past week here
at the Capitol have figured chiefly on
the Republican side. Democratic trou-
bles have been forgotten for a little,
following the Lincoln dollar dinner
speech by Mr.. Bryan, which Democrats
of the conservative type regarded as
quite as unfortunate for the Democra-
tic party as was the Olney speech at
the Mcclellan dinner in New York.
There has been a good deal of fiddling
about instructing delegates to the Chi
cago convention but President Roose-
velt's friends have given the campaign
for instructions a good start and made
the Presidents nomination surer than
ever.
Senator Quay, WHO has just departed
for the sunny skies of Florida, gave the
Presidents cause a boom by announc-
ing Just before he departed that he
intended going on the floor of the Har-
risburg Convention, April next, and
moving that the delegates be instructed
for Roosevelt. Mr.. Quay has been a
tower of strength for the President, but
probably it has not been wholly be-
cause he loves the President more but
Senator Hanna less. 1t is pretty gen.
orally known that the Pennsylvania
Senator bears the Ohio Senator an an
cient grudge. He never let's an oppor-
tunity go by to repay II and add a
little interest. Senator Hanna refused
to vote for Mr.. Quay's admission to
his seat in the Senate a few years ago
when there was terrible scrimmage
in Pennsylvania and Mr.. Quay had to
resort to an appointment by the Cover
nor, after the legislature had failed to
elect.
Senator Platt, coming back from the
sunshine of South Carolina, also gave
an impetus to the campaign of the
Presidents friends for the instruction
of delegates by asserting that the dele
gates from New York would be in
structed for Roosevelt if necessary.
There are lots of other indications, that
make a part of the political history of
the last few days and which indicate
| more strongly than ever how impossi-
BILE it is for opposition Republicans TO
down Mr.. Roosevelt. 1t is believed
that in the course of two or three weeks
| enough instructions will be assumed to
give the President a clear majority of
| instructed delegates. When that point
is reached the carping critics in the
| Republican camp will be sienced Rep
| resentatiVe Lorimer, of Chicago, a
skill full politician, pointed out today
| that as soon as the nomination is made
in the convention, there will be a clos
| ing up of the ranks. In fact Mr.. Lori
| mer remarked that it was no wonder
there had been opposition to the nom
| nation of Mr.. Roosevelt, when one
looks back over the history of past
| Presidential campaigns. It will be re-
called that there was criticism against
Mr.. Mckinley at times and that there
was an outburst of 1t along in the pre-
| liminary period of the campaign of
1900, before the delegates had been
chosen to the Philadelphia convention.
Senator Hanna's frail health is no.

Gill Lecturing on Hawaii.
The Seattle Daily Times Of Jan.

Inc Seattle DAILY Times or Jan. 70,
says:
Assembly 174 United Artisans, offer
ed special attraction for the members
and friends of the order at Carpenters
Hall last night in the way of an illus
trated lecture on the Hawaiian Is
lands. The lecture was delivered by
Edwin s. Gill, who before coming to
this city last spring had been resi-
dent Of the Islands for several years,
serving a term there as United States
commissioner.
Mr.. Gill illustrated his lecture with a
number of very fine stereopticon views
showing the rich tropical scenery of
the Islands, the sugar plantations and
methods of cultivation, driveways and
street scenes in the principal towns;
the flag raising in August, 1898, when
Uncle Sam took possession, and many
other interesting sights, giving one an
excellent idea of the beauty of the Is
lands.
Probably the most interesting feat
ure of the lecture was the description
of the volcano of Kilauea, the largest
active volcano in the woINd, but vol
cano which the visitor can view at
close range, going to the very edge of
the inner pit in perfect safety The
views of the volcano gave a good idea
of it and one view of the eruption on
Mauna Lea on Jul" 4, 1899, was partic-
ularly attractive. Such lectures as
that of Mr.. Gill render a good service
in disseminating accurate information
of the insular possessions.

me to serve shall not decline. When

went to Mr.. Damon and asked him to
take the place. He declined and said
he couldn't give the time to 1t, and
Arthur Wilder declined for the same
reason. Mr.. Wilder suggested that I
ought to take the place myself, but I
told him that I didn't want 1t as l was
