MAY BE FORCED TO REMAIN.
Lena Likely to Be Rlockaded at San
Francisco by Japanese.

washington, Sept 16.--The develop
meat OF the day, SO far as it related to
the Russian cruiser Lena at San Fran
cisco. was the clearing UP of the official
muddle arising out of the doubt as to
which of the five departments of gov
eminent should deal with 1t. 1t was
finally decided by the president that the
stnte and navy departments should
treat the case, acting jointly, q decision
calculated greatly to simplify it's han
ding.
Agreeable to the presidents instruc-
ttons, Acting Secretary Adee. of the
state department., and Admiral Pills.
bury, of the navy department, had two
conferences during the day, and the
result was the preparation of instruc-s
tong to Admiral Goodrich which, 1t Is
understood were first wired to- the
president for his approval. There is
good ground to believe that these in-;s
structions contemplate the allowance
Of sufficient time to the Lena to make
temporary repairs. However. there Isl
u growing belief here that the vessel
will be obliged to inferno In the end.
for IT is altogether likely that by the
time she could be made ready to goi
to sea one or more Japanese cruisers
would be off the Golden Gate ready to
sink or capture her. Foreseetng such
an event as request for the right to-
inferno, the officials have been con-
sidering what shall be done with the
crew--whether they may be allowed to-
return to Russia on parole, or must be
interned on their ship In San Francisco
harbor. On this point no decision has
been reached

Injured in Auto Accident.

st. Paul, Mimi, Sept. 13.-Four men were
injured, one probably fatally, in a pecu-.
liar auto accident in Minneapolis. George
Miller was the man who was most seri-
ously injured. His scalp was torn Off and.
he was hurt about the back. The physi-3
clan who attended him at the time of the
accident said he probably would not SUR.
yive his injuries.
John Boutell and a young man named
Kelly were also injured. Boutell was hurt
in the left leg and two or three of Kelly'st
ribs We're broken and his collar bone frac-5;
tured. According to the story told by.
Bouteli and Kelly, they do not know who;
the ma ndriying the machine was, nor
who his companion was. S53 @g
The big machine was practically demoI.j
ished and left standing beside the road.
The number had been removed and it was
impossible to identity the owners who
went away soon after the accident.

Vigilance is being exercised that no

is being exercised to see that she herself

she is entitled-cnough to carry her to the

MARKS OF ILLNESS ON NAILS.
How Accident and Great Mental An.
ruish Are Also Indicated.

st. Louis Globe Democrat: One
who makes a close study of finger nails
will find many curious things about
them to excite his wonder and inter-
expert on such matters, but none more
so than the stories of physical condi :.
tons told in their growth.
you know the nail of person in
good health, grows at the rate of about
one sixteenth of an inch each week
slightly more than many authorities
believe-but dun. ing illness or after an
accident or during times of mental de-
preston this growth is not only af-
fected and retarded, 30 far as length
is concerned, but also as regards it's
thickness. The very slightest illness
will thus leave an indellible mark on
the nails which may readily be detec-
ted as the nails grow out. II one has
a sudden attack, such as acute rheu-
matism, which sends the temperature
bounding upward to 104 or los within
the space of two or three hours, it will
be found on the nails, Indicating the
difference in thickness of growth be-
joyed and the thin growth of the i'll
period.
IF the illness is one that comes
gradually. like typhoid fever, for ex-
ample, instead of ridge, a gentle in
cline appear on the nails. Should one
have an arm broken, the thick ridge
can be seen only on the fingers of the
one hand, but in all cases of general
sickness the ridge or slope appears on
the fingers of both hands. When one
has passed through q period of ex-
IRENE excitement or mental depression,
the fact will be imprinted on the nails
either with an abrupt ridge or n gem
tie slope, according to the acuteness OF
the mental influence.
In no instance can the marks OF III
ness, accident or mental condition be
clearly seen on the nail until the
growth has carried the line beyond the
white or half-moon portion Of it, but
week or two subsequent TO any of
these things the ridge or slope may be
found on the nails usually readily visi-
BILE to the eyes. but if not. the mark
may be found by running the tip Of the
finger down any of the nails"

Ants Can stand Extreme Cole.

New Orleans Times Democrat:
There is very popular belief that the
small ant cannot stand much cold"
said man who lives uptown. but the
idea is entirely wrong. There may have
been a time when the ant could not
endure low temperatures. but that time
has passed, If 1T ever existed
The fact is that the ant seems to
rather like the cold. IL may judge
from experience at my own home.
They have for some time been In the
habit Of making the icebox .heir head
quarters. They simply live there. It
is the one favorite spot with them.
Nor are they the least bit inclined to
shun the Ice. Up to very recently I
had thought that the ant was IN the
habit Of burrowing deep into the
ground in order to escape the rigors
of the winter. But there Is nothing in
this old idea. 1t may be due to the ext
gencies OF the struggle for existence,
one Of the things necessary in the
ceaseless fight for life. But whatever
the cause of 1t, you can put the ant
down as being able to stand more cold
than the average human being"

differences Of opinion among themselves
and their readiness to abandon principles
upon which they have insisted puzzle us
as to whether they mean to carry out this
promise. In their platform they declare
for Independence. approximation their
language is obscure-without qualification
as to time and indeed qualification
as to time is an absurdity. for we have
neither right nor power to bind our sue

Independence for few years as to deny
1t for an ), indefinite period. But in later

substituted for "independence;'' and the
words described precisely the policy now
