Larcer Rooms.

New houses show tendency to-
ward larger rooms and fewer of
them. The bathroom, which in
many Of the older houses is small
room with just enough space to turn
round in, is now built larger, since
it is to be used by all the members
of the family, who often keep in it
their toilet articles. Downstairs ar
chitects plan to have at least one
large living room. The large cen
tral hall, which can be used as a re-
ception and sitting room, is growing
in favor. Large chimneypieces,
which are not only decorative, but
useful, are a favorite feature Of
these hospitable and cordial looking
halls.

Climbing Mountains

Is a fascinating and invigorating past
time. 1t develops not the body only,
but the mind. The Alpine Peaks OF
Switzerland have their counterpart in
our own country, in the Sierras, the
Cascades, and parts of the Rockies.
The greatest glacial peak of the
United States is Mt. Rainer, in Wash
ington, more than 14,5OO feet high.
This magnificent mountain has Is or
more giant glaciers creeping down it's
sides and discharging their glacial
detritus into the Columbia river or
Puget sound.
A climb to the summit of this peak
is a mountaineering feat worthy OF
any mountaineer. For rs cents A. M.

business appears to be done. Along
towards the end of the term, the pol
icy which the administration has pur-
sued is used by the opposition to
unite in order to create an issue for
the oncoming election. The effect OF
all this is that business becomes more
or less gambling against the chances
OF the presidential succession.
more and more the welfare OF the
people is becoming and is understood
to be wrapped up in and dependent
upon business prosperity. To make
it manifest, therefore, that the bust.
ness men OF the country believe and
demand a presidential term OF six
years and no denomination will be to
assure the adoption of the amend
ment. The arousal OF the business in
terests OF the country, it will be seen,
is the real, actual labor that is before
the business league.
Better for All.
"A long term for the president
would not only create a longer period
OF business security, but it would give
ample time for a president to formu-
late and carry out his policy.
Very often presidential administra-
tive plans cannot be put into opera
ton and the benefits OF them realized
by the general public before the time
for another campaign approaches. In
other words the presidential term OF
four years is too brief for a president
to inaugurate and carry out a policy.
A six-year term would give ampler
time"

RAISED FOR JUSTICE FOR HIS

WHAT DEM0CRACYHAS DONE
Strong Appeal BY the Reverend c. H.
Brown in Behalf Of Oppressed
and Downtrodden.

Among the earnest workers in the
city in the cause of Christianity, NOR
ality, law, order and justice to all
peoples is the Reverend G. H. Brown,
pastor of the A. M. E. church. Mr..
Brown has lived in different sections
of the country and from his W ex-
perience and observation has learned
to know in what regard the people OF
his race are held by the democrats.
He knows how they are treated in
the states where democracy holds the
reins and knows what they may ex-
pect if that party in those states is
given the added power OF having in
charge of national affairs an admin
~istration in sympathy and accord
with it.
His Patriotic Appeal.
The reverend gentleman makes the
following appeal to all who believe in
the maintenance OF constitutional
rights and the preservation of the lib.
critics guaranteed under it:
1.-THE Importance of the impending
presidential election appeals to every
legal American to manifest personal
interest and strenuous effort in main
tanning the stability, prestige ana
prosperity of the American republic.
ITO secure a continuance of the
conditions now existing, it is neces-
sary that every legal man and woman
should engage with zeal and enthusi.
asm in awakening public sentiment
to the support OF the present admins
traton and it's peerless leader, the
president, Theodore Roosevelt, one
who represents the highest type OF
American character in that he stands
for constitutional justice, equity and
protection to all citizens without re.

RoJEsTvENsky HEARD FROM
Russian AdmiraI's Statement Regard
ing the North Sea
Blunder.

Vigo, Spain, Oct. 26.-The Associat-
ed Press has succeeded in obtaining
an interview with Admiral Rojest-
vensky, who expressed great regret
over the North sea incident. The adj
miral stated that the unfortunate oc-
currence was purely accidental. The
weather on the night in question was
rather hazy.
About 1 a. m. two torpedo bots,
which the Russians supposed were
Japanese craft, suddenly appeared be-
tween the two divisions Of the squad
ron and seemed to discharge torpe-
does. The Russians Immediately
opened fire.
Not Aware Of Damage Done.
They saw no fishermen and were
not aware that any damage had been
done. Evidently, the admiral said,
the fishermen had shown no lights.
The admiral repeated that he greatly
regretted that an injury had been
done fishermen and added that he had
no doubt the Russian government
would make ample compensation.

London, Oct. Plat : o'clock this
morning there is no sign as to when
Admiral Rojestvensky's report will be
made public, but if unofficial reports
should turn out to reflect the admiraI's
official report, it is evident the Rus
sian officers made an extraordinary
blunder in mistaking trawlers for tor
pedo boats and fired on their phantom
foes. This astonishing explanation is
regarded here as not fitting ill with
the state of panic suggested as hav-
ing prevailed with the officers of the
Baltic fleet; and in that case it is sug-
gested the Russian government should
find no difficulty in removing or other.

dorff, the Russian ambassador, re-
turned to London tonight from cele'
brating his silver wedding with his
wife's relatives in Silesia, and barely
escaped assault from a crowd at the
Victoria station, which followed him
almost to the embassy.
Count Benckendorff has always
been regarded in official circles here
as a friend of peace, and he was as
much opposed as. was Count Lams-
dorff to the Russo-Japanese war. In
deed, he is almost an Anglophile in
sentiment. After escaping from the
hostile crowd that met him at the
station, he drove at a gallop to the
embassy. Half a dozen rowdies fol-
lowed, but the ambassador arrived un-
harmed. His noisy pursuers encoun-
tered a Gordon of police that had been
hurrieily dispatched to guard the en-
bassy. With such vigilance did they
carry out their task that when Prince
Sviatopolk-Mirsky, a cousin of the
new Russian minister of the interior
and second secretary of the embassy,
arrived, he had hard work getting in.
In reply to a request for some state
ment to the Associated Press, the am.
bassador sent word that he could say
nothing, but it was gathered that he

Punishment Of BIunderers.

FuniSnFnent OF BlundSrerS.
Information has reached the Asso.
ciated Press from an authoritative
source that puts a brighter light upon
the situation. 1t is understood that
practically everything has been decided
to the satisfaction of Count .Lams-
dorf, the Russian foreign minister,
except the question Of the punishment
Of the offending officers of the Baltic
squadron.
It is. further understood that Great
Britain is not demanding final and
formal written undertakings before
announcing that she is satisfied, but
that an undertaking in general terms
on the part of Russia will be accepted
as sufficient guarantee for an official
announcement that the crisis has
passed.
