A sensational libel in admiralty has
been filed in the United States District
Court against the British bark Ivan
hoe whereof George w. Grant is, or
lately was, master, her tackle, apparel,
furniture boats and appurtenances,
and against all persons lawfully inter-
libellants are w. B. Dyer, A. Anderson,
J. H. Bayer and V. A. Bitner, who de-
clare that each of them is a citizen of
the United States and a mariner by oc-
cupation. Attorneys A. S. Humphreys,
A. H. Crook and ]. j. Dunno are proc
tors for libellants.
of the Ivanhoe is London, England,
and that during all the times mention
ed in the libel George w. Grant was
master of the bark. About June rs,
1903, the Ivanhoe was lying in the port
of Port Townsend, State of Washing
ton, destined for voyage therefrom
to the port of Iquique, Chilli, or any
port or ports in Australia, New Zea-
land, India, China, or any port or ports
in the Pacific Ocean, and return to
final port of discharge in the United
States (Hawaiian Islands excepted) or
British Columbia, the voyage not to
exceed two years.
Dyer and Anderson were shipped as
able seamen at $40 a month, and Bayer
and Bitnar as ordinary seamen at
$3.50 a month, until the termination
of voyage. They allege that during
the whole of the voyage each of them
did well and truly perform his duty,
and was obedient to all the lawful
commands of the master as well as or
the chief mate and second mate of the
vessel. They go on to say:
THAT the aforesaid contract of
hiring and employment above referred
to is now wholly terminated by rea-
son of the constant, repeated and gem
eral cruelty. inhumanity and ill-usage
exercised and exerted by the officers
of said bark, upon and toward these
libellants, and each of them. And in
this behalf, these libellants show that
ever since said bark departed from
said port of Port Townsend, at fire.

Luxurles for Pets.

The glittering cages and cage comforts
that are provided for pet birds today
seem to quite reconcile the little song
sters to captivity.
The prettiest of the new style cages
for small birds is an affair of brass. with
broad band of brass wire netting
around the lower portion. These are
supplied with dainty drinking cups aud
platters and bath tubs, in which the bird
may take his morning plunge Canaries
are satisfied with one swinging and one
stationary perch, but hooking birds re-
quire five or six -perches and quite a
large cage.
Stands for parrots vary in elaborate
ness from plain zinc tray. with its
complement of cups and perches. to a
gorgeous tray of brass or lacquered
ware. standing midway on a brass. rod.
that IS topped by brass perches and
richly ornamented drinking cups. A
fancy chain is there to hold polly to her
rod, and big brass cage can be fitted
on top of the whole The stand resen-
ble4 one belonging to piano hanp, and
the same stands, with curved tops and
hooks, are made to hang small bird
cages from. Some cages have glass

SIT is common but silly opin-
ion prevailing among a GER
tain class of people that the
worse remedy tastes, smells or
hurts, the more efficacious it is"
So says a well-known English
physician. He further adds
For example, let us consider
cod liver oil. AS it is extracted
from the fish this oil is so often
sive to the taste and smell that
many cannot use it at all, no
matter how badly they need it.
Yet cod liver oil is one of the
most valuable drugs in the world
and it is the greatest pity that
we have not thus far been able
to free it from those peculiari-
ties which so seriously interfere
with its usefulness. This was
written years ago; the work of
civilizing and redeeming it has
since been triumphantly accom-
plished; and as leading in
gredient in the remedy called
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
the oil retains all it's wonderful
curative properties with no bad
smell or taste whatever. 1t is
palatable as honey and contains
all the nutritive and curative
properties of Pure Cod Liver
Oil, extracted by US from fresh
cod livers, combined with the
Compound Syrup Of Hypophos-
phites and Extracts of Malt and
Wild Cherry; creating a medi-
cine of unequaled power for the
diseases most prevalent and IA
tai among men, women and chill
dren. There is no other remedy
to compare with it. It increa-
ses the digestive power of the
stomach and in Blood Impuri-
ties, Throat and Lung Troubles,
Nervous Dyspepsia and Scrofu-
lous Affections, it gives quick
and certain relief and cure. DR..
q. G. Shannon, of Canada, says:
81 shall continue its use with,
[ am sure, great advantage to
my patients and satisfaction to
myself" Has all the virtues of
cod liver oil; none Of its faults.
You may trust it fully; it cannot
disappoint you. At all chemists.

eeorae VIII Boss Things.

George w. Vanderbilt proposes to
lake things in his own hands when
he goes back to Biltmore in the au-
.umn. He will personally look after
the management of his estate. which
consists of quarter OF million OF
acres of land and a hundred or more
different departments, including n
dairy, a truck garden, etc. When Mr..
Vanderbilt left Biltmore last spring
he was much dissatisfied with the
way things were going. He dismissed
several of the head employees who had
been coming up short in their nc
counts, and ordered that some changes
be made. Recently Col. McNamee, his
manager, went to Seattle to look after
some of the Vanderbilt affairs there
1t is understood that Mr.. McNamee
will remain in Seattle and that Mr..
Vanderbilt will look after his own af-
fairs at Biltmore. Mr.. and Mrs. Van
derbilt are expected soon for the win
ter.

Bishop p. F. Stevens of South Caro-
Tina was urging on young man the
pther day the Importance OF self-appre-
citation.

said, '.is quite as harmful as to think
too much. Modesty and humility are
all very well in their way. but there
Is a great danger by OVERRIDING them
Of creating Uriah Heep impression"
Bishop Stevens laughed quietly.

said "who was extravagantly modest
and humble.
"One Christmas Eve his congrega-
ton called at the parsonage and pre-
sented him with plush armchair.

For a minute Lieut.. Kennedy looked
at the man in surprise. then ho
reached through the window and took
the description.
Wen try and find her." he said.
The man left the station and Ken
nedy stood for moment in deep
thought. Then he laughed and said:
well. sir, the police force Is
great place for experiences. I've been
here a long. long time myself. but
this is sure a new one. In all my e1-

RAILWAY MANS VIEWS.
Country IL Prosperous, and Rooseve
VIII BE Elected.


r. II. Hartman. one of the best in
formed railway officials in the country,
says a continuation of national pros
perity is assured. Recently he said to
a New York Herald reporter:
Conditions which in other years
caused panic and national distress do
not now exist. In all localities-in Ne
braska and Kansas, in the East and the
Far Wcst-the local moncyed interests
are conservative. 1t is possible to in
vcstigate with accuracy any financial or
industrial question. The small money
centcrs as well as the large ones are
well supplied with funds, and this fact
insures careful investment and mini
mizes risk. There has been n slow,
steady enhancement OF values, and it is
still going on"
When asked for his opinion on the
proba bic outcome of the election. he said:
ut will be Roosevelt and Fairbanks.
Every one wants them. No one can af-
ford to change"

The other morning the train
whisked past the Seventy-second
street station on the down track. the
middle line being left open for the
expresses. A 6-yearold boy standing
on the platform was much interested
in the unusual sight, and, at the risk
OF falling off, craned his neck to fol-
low the course of the train.
When the regular train came along
the youngster refused to board 1t. and
in spite of all persuasion his mother
was forced to let the train go by.

THE UNDERGROUND LINE.

Virtue reigns supreme to-day about
Esopus;
1t is purged of all that jars the proper
mind.
The thing that's most cor picuous round
Esopus
Is the absence of t,, peanut eating
kind:
And in all the mir tha, circulates at Rose
mount
Not plutocratic odor can be found;
But the public still suspects there's
something doing
In the subway to Esopus, under
ground.
In the cold and shady distance they're
remaining,
Willy Dave and wicked August all
alone.
Their base presence no more casts n dark
reelection
In the lmelight that descends around
the throne;
For the candidates declared he never
knew them;
He repeats it while the white robcd are
around;
Then he coyly turns one ear to earth and
listens
To instruction from the subway under
ground.
And August smiles screnely DER at
Davy.
And Dave looks back and winks the
other eye;
And all the while they keep right on ar
ranging
The place and style OF each plum in
the pie.
YES, it is trine lonesome. this seclu-
sion"
Says August, but you bet the plan is
sound.
For Dave and l amt lonGin' to be hoo

Then they hit the trail for Rosemount

SUGGESTIONS TO DEMOCRATS
Great Thoughts of Great Democrats
Should He Widely Circulated.

The Democratic party is boasting Of
the fact that in this campaign it is
sending out great number of tons of
literature. though why literature should
be sent out by the Democratic party no
one can understand. Upon second
thought, though. it must be admitted,
as matter of fairness in speaking OF
people who vote the Democratic ticket,
that quite n number of them can read.
However. this is merely II suggestion
to the men whose business it is to handle
the Democratic campaign of education.
To be consistent they must keep up
the campaign lies. In their tons of lit
crature they must first reiternte the
falschood of Senator Bailey of Texas.
when he declared in a recent speech
that the President advocated lynchins
as punishment for stealing.
They should issue a few million
pamphlets advocating the attitude OF
Dcmocracy's great representative,
Champ Clark. in assuming that when
some one in the audience disngrccs with
the speaker on the platform it is the
nrerogative of the speaker. after his
speech is over. to cut the throat OF the
objcctor from car to ear.
There is an old saying that a lie well
stuck to is as good as the truth. 1t
is not sound proposition. but there is
in it n suggestion as to what the Demo-
Gratis might do with their money in cir
culating campaign literature.
1t is to be hoped that they will be
grateful for these suggestions, but the
chances are ten to one that they won't.

DEMOCRATS ADMISSION.
Parker. Party Afraid to Stand on Its
Past Record.

John B. Stanch6eld, one of the leaders
of the New York Democracy, said in
speech at Schenectady:
"Thcy uhe Democrnts) do not stand on
their pnst but they present u live inter
probation OF live Issues"
Truly, the Democratic party does not
stand on its past. 1t dares not stand
on its past-on its advocacy of free
coinage of silver, on its demand for the
hauling down of the flag in the Philip
pines. on the business paralysis that
marked the last period during which the
Democratic party was in control of the
government; on its declaration that the
war for the preservation of the Union
was failure; on all the laundering op-
position of which its history is con-
tinuous record.
The Democratic party does not and
dares not stand upon its record. because
its record would discredit the most en-
ticins promises that it could make.

UNWORTHY OF TRUST.
Gold Dem ocrats Stunning the Hill
Shcchnn Combination.

Shechnn Combination.
The Gold Democrats of Indiana are
unwilling to trust Judge Parkcrs spon-
sors. They are willing to contribute S1O,-
900 to the campaign fund, but the money
will not be sent to the Hill-Sheehan
combination. They have asked Parker
himself to take the money. If the Demo-
Gratis are unwilling to trust their leaders,
how can the mass of the people be ex-
pected to take any stock in the profess
sions and promises of the party? IL the
Gold Democrats are correct in their esti-
mate of Parkcr's managers. the latter
are no better than Il gang of sand-bag-
gers. Sterling II. Holt, one of the lead
ing Gold Democrats of Indiana, said
few days ago: THE Gold Democrats
are not going to be coayed behind
barn and relieved of their money and
then driven to the polls and voted"
1t is gratifying to learn that such A
man as Mr.. Holt entertans the same
view of Hill and Shcehan that Repub-
licans do, but it is somewhat remarkable
that Mr.. Holt does not realize that Par
ker is merely the creature of his man
ayers, and that any money given to the
judge will find its way, through some
o lnel, to Democratic headquarters.

THOROUGHLY EXPOSED.
The weakness Of Parker and Davis
Grows Palmer Each boy.


1t appears that Judge Parker of
Esopus is going to New York City to
run his own campaign. The revelation
has come, but it has come more swiftly
than most of us expected. The revelu-
ton is simply this-that the idea Of the
country that the Democrats had nomi-
mated fine old judge whose character
led up to the standard of what a judge
should be is shivcred into splinters. Two
years ago the country knew nothing of
Judge Alton Il. Parker of New York.
and little of Henry Gassaway Davis of
West Virginia, two men picked up, for
a purpose. by the men who controlled the
Democratic national convention. How
clear to everybody now must be the sit
untion! Instead of this stately judge
who sent the stately telegram to St.
Louis, appears. and for all permanency,
merely decent creature Of the famous
New York politician, David Bennett
Hill.
1t is all qneer. 1t appears so unsub-
stantial and Indifferent that Hill could
have nominated one of his creations for
the Presidency!
As the days pass in this autumn of
1904 the eyes of the American people
are opening as to the political situation.
mere - ibiioNiHS oI'h-
ing. 1t is practically all over save the
exhibition of certain eNuberauce next
November.
1t is impossible that such a people
as are the voters of the United States
could vote generally TO place the gov
crnment in the hands of Tammany and Il
weak but crafty Democratic leader,
whose aims and objects have seemed
ever to be for himself alone one who
has never heard or thought of the cN-
preston, "the greatest good for the
greatest number" and who, above all,
seems incompetent for the best manage
ment of the United States.

pemocrnt. Admire Roosevelt.

Radical Democratic newspapers are
forced TO admit that President Roose-
velt's letter of acceptance is a strenuous
presentation of the issues from n Repub-
lean standpoint. Even the New York
World and Denver Times commend the
Presidents keynote" The fact is. there
is not Democrat in the land who does
not admire Mr. Roosevelt's direct way of
going at things, and all would vote for
him if they could at the same time re-
tain their party organization. There
will be no real regret among Democrats
when Mr.. Roosevelt is elected. lie is
ten times more popular with the mass
of Democracy than Judge Parker is.

Tn. Party for young Men.

Edward Hoch, Republican nominee for

Marion, in that State, said:
But now these vociferous gentlemen
have suddenly discovered that the gold
standard is all right. and their candi-
date for President bandly announces
that that question is 'irrevocably set
tied Young men should join II party
that espouses good principles and poll
cics at the beginning, and not a party
that opposes every good thing until it is
'irrcvocably settled against it, and then

that it had stubbornly opposed"
