PRESIDENT OF THE
GENERAL FEDERATION
OF W0MEN'S CLUBS

The election of Mrs. Sarah Platt Decker
to the presidency of the General Fedora
ton of Women's Clubs was not unexpect-
ed. From the first her influence and abili
ty were felt by the convention. Three
times has Mrs. Decker been importuned
to become a candidate. In 1898 the bien
NAL was held in Denver, where her ability
was recognized by the women Of the con
vention. She wears diamond monogram

the women of her state in appreciation OF
her efforts to better the condition of the
women of Colorado Mrs. Decker is a
widow and has few family duties to pre-
vent her from devoting her energies to club
work She is an ardent suffragist, which
is regretted by the most conservative
clubs and which was the one point against
her election.

LOST STEAMER
UMBRIA RETURNS

VICTORIA, B. c., May 3O.-The steam
or Umbria, which had been given up for
lost, returned Saturday night from Boring
sea in badly damaged condition, after a
most exciting sealing cruise. In gale on
March 10 her headgear was carried away,
with the jibboom, davits, topsail, seven
canoes, one boat and part of her rigging.
The hull sprang aleak and the ship lay
at one time on her beamends. The men
worked waist-deep in water to save her,
and this was finally accomplished by shift
ing the ballast.

This the Message Judge
Brown of Alaska Re-
Ceives from Roosevelt
(By tee Assoc!ated Press }

Washington, Nov 1c.-President
Roosevelt has removed from office
Frank FL. Richards, United States
marshal for the Nome district in Alas
ka, and has requested the resignation
of Judge Melville c. Brown, Of the
juneau district. This acton is the re-
suit of the investigation of the Alaska
judiciary made recently by Assistant
Attorney General Day. The case of
Judge Alfred S. Moore is held in abey-
ancc.
The nature of the charges made
against the officials was not made
public in detail, it being deemed ad-
Visable not to publish at this time the
report made by Judge Day. IT is
known, however, that the charges in
volved selfish, if not corrupt, prac-
tees before the Alaskan courts in
Mining claim cases.
Charges from time to time have
been made aaginst nearly all the Fed
eral officials of Alaska Governor
Brady not being exempt. but it is said
that the action of the President to-
day finally closes the matter of these
charges, officials of the administra-
ton being satisfied that Governor
Brady, Judge James Wyckersham, OF
the Yukon district, and other officials
involved in them, have acted in the
best interests of the territory. Judge
Wyckersham was re-appointed today.

that the Rastoronny carried sealed or

"a highly favorable opportunity TO es-

Sufticient powder for this purpose

Port Arthur.
Small charges or ordinary powder
placed in each of the five water tight
compartments. were exploded.
Customs Officer Koenig was on
board the destroyer and the Russian
experienced considerable difficulty In
getting him off without arousing his
susnicions. The destrover's cutter.
manned by two men. was lying near
and the official was persuaded to take
a ride around the Rastoropnv in or
der that he might see the INJURIES she
was alleged to have received. No
sooner had the customs officer stepped
into the cutter than a petty officer
drew his watch and urged the rowers
to make all speed away. When the
destroyer had gone down the official
was taken on shore.

FLUNG UNDER CAR
Boys Arm Lost by Brutal
Act of Negro. Cap
ture of Negro.

Especial to N - and Observer
New Bern, X. c., Nov. 16.-While
waiting for the Coast Line train to
pass a street crossing tonight Frank
Abbott, white boy, sixteen years old,
was riding slowly along on his wheel.
Just then, the boy being but a few
feet from the moving cars, q negro
ran up and gave him a push. This
necessitated his throwing his left arm
out to prevent him from being thrown
under the cars. He missed the car
however, and fell under the wheels
passing over his arm right ct the
shoulder blade and almost seevring it
from his body. only small piece of
skin connected the member TO his
shoulder. The arm was removed at
the physicians office.
Abbott says he does not know who
the negro was and that when he
came up to him he cursed him just
as he pushed.
All efforts are being made to locate
the brute, and should he be found
no doubt he will get the full penalty
Of the law.
Later.-The negro was captured by
Officers Lupton and Bryan at Five
Points and carried before Mayor Ellis,
who committed him to Jail. His name
is John Gillie. He virtually admitted
pushing Frank under the train, while
he attempted to board the moving
cars. Sentiment is very high against
the negro.
