CHAPTER OF ACCIDENTS
IN NEW YORK HARBOR.
FerEyboat Sank, But Its $50 Passen-
gers We're Rescued.

New York. Nov. 4.-The ferryboat
Columbia of the Wall Street Line was
run into to-day by the Norwich liner
City of Lowell. There was no loss of
life. There was a heavy fog on the
river at the time of the collision.
There were about $50 passengers and
seventeen teams on board the Colum-
bia at the time of the accident. All
the passengers were taken off in safe
ty, but eight or ten horses were
drowned.
The City Of Lowell was coming down
the river and in the dense, fog struck
the Columbia anidships, just clear of
the paddle wheels. The Columbia
fioated around for a while and began
to settle. A hawser was thrown from
the City of Lowell to the Columbia
and made fast and the passengers
were taken on board the steamboat.
Later the hawser in some unaccount-
able manner parted and the Columbia
finally sank
The Garden City, a ferryboat plying
between Long Island City and New
York, had many narrow escapes from
serious damage during one of her
trips through the dense fog. Seven
times she collided with various craft
before she reached her slip in this city.
The only serious damage sustained by
the Garden City was when she bump
ed into the big Sound steamer Maine.
A hole was stove in the ferryboat's
side and a portion of her guard rail
was carried away. The hole was far
above the water line, however, and
the ferryboat did not sink. The Gar
den City had 100 passengers.
The ferryboat Somerset was one of
the boats in collision with the Gar
den City. She was not seriously dam
aged.
The new steamer General johnson
of the federal quartermaster's depart
ment went ashore on Governors Is
land during the fog.
In the city the elevated and surface
cars suffered serious delay, and
schedules were practically abandoned
On the elevated the dense fog made
it impossible for the engineers to dis
tinguish signals at any distance. and
as a consequence trains which usually
make fast time during the rush hours
were driven very slowly and thousands
of persons we're late in reaching the
downtown districts.

ROOT SAYS ALSO THAT
C0RTELY0U Is NOT GUILTY.
Former War Secretary Does a Bit OF
ExpIainfnE.

New York, Nov. 4.-The last large
Republican meeting of the present
campaign in this city was held to-
night at Durland's Riding Academy.
The fact that Elihu Root was to be
the principal speaker filed the hall,
and hundreds were unable to gain en-
trance.
Mr.. Roots speech was a reply to
various features of Judge Parker's
recent address, especially the charge
that Chairman Cortelyou had obtain
ed campaign funds by blackmailing
corporations. Mr.. Root declared this
charge absolutely false. saying neith-
er the President nor Mr.. Cortelyou
trust that any one else had not. Mr..
Root said
MIR. Cortelyou's chief duty is not
to collect funds for the purpose of se-
curing the election of the President,
and he has not performed any such
duty. The money to pay expenses of
the campaign has been raised by COM
mittees appointed in each of the prin-
cipal cities of the Union under the di-
rection of Cornelius N. Bliss. The
fact is that that fund has come from
more than 1000 separate contributions,
given freely and gladly, without de-
mand or importantly or pressure from
a committee or any one. 1t is the
smallest fund we have had for twelve
years-about one-half of the Republi-
can fund when Mckinley was elected
i'm 1896, and about one-half the Demo-
cratic fund when Cleveland was elect
ed in 1892"

New York. Nov. 4.-Gov. Odell took
up the matter of Judge Parker and the
shipbuilding combine in his speech at
the Murray Hill Lyceum tonight. He
said:
For the first time in my recollec-
ton a Democrat has seen fit to at
tack a President. 1 have stood the
abuse heaped on my head but when 1
find men parading as trust busters
when the contrary is the truth, I feel
that it is not honest and is only be-
ing done to get your votes.
II said Judge Parker had been con-
nected with trusts. l know it. l know
that Judge Parker had $4,000 of ship
building stock, and the reason 1 know
1t is because he came to me and asked
me to let him have it. l know it be-

to him, and he paid for it.
Il can produce the documentary
proof in a few hours by going to New
burgh, where it is.
81 know he had stock in the Steel
trust and I will furnish the proof and
do it in fifteen minutes after 1 get to
Newburgh. A man who is attacking
the trusts ought to come into court
with clean hands. Roosevelt, on the
contrary, has been pulling down trusts

welt has 100 per cent of honesty in his

FORGIVE AND FORGET.

Forgive and forget-it is better
To fling all ill-feeling aside
Than allow the deep cankering letter
OF revenge in your breast to abide;
For your step DER life's path will be
lighter
When the load from your bosom is
cast,
And the glorious sky will seem brighter
When the cloud of displeasure has
passed.
Though your spirit swell high with
emotion
To give back injustice again,
Sink the thought i'll oblivion's ocean,
For remembrance increases the pain.
Oh, why should We linger in sorrow
When its shadow is passing away
Or seek to encounter, tomorrow,
The blast that o'erswept us to-day?
Our life's stream is varying river,
And though it may placidly glide
When the sunbeams of Joy DER it quiver,
1t must foam when the storm meets
its tide.
Then stir not its current to madness,
For its wrath thou wilt ever regret;
Though the morning beams break on
thy sadness,
Ere the sunset forgive and forget.

Uses for Salt.

Salt is most excellent for cleaning
the teeth. It hardens the gums and
sweetens the breath. II used persist.
emily enough, salt will cure nasal Ca
tsrrh. A weak brine should be made
and snuffed up the nose, allowing it to
run down the throat. There is moth
ing better for the relief OF tired or
weak eyes than to bathe them with q
strong solution Of salt and water ap-
piled as hot as il can be borne. Salt
rubbed on the black spots on dishes
will remove them, and salt placed over
fresh claret stain on the table linen
will assist it to disappear when washed.
One of the most effective remedies
known for q sick headache is to place
q pinch OF salt on the tongue and allow
it to dissolve slowly. In about ten
minutes it may be followed by a drink
of water. The colored Japanese straw
mattings which are so generally used
as floor coverings are best kept sweet
and clean by washing them with a So
luton OF salt and water after the week
ly sweeping. A fresh ink stain on a
carpet may be removed by Immediately
applying layer OF salt. The ink will
be absorbed, and when the salt is
black it should be removed and an.
other layer applied, repeating the op-
Grafton until all the ink is removed
and the carpet returned to its former
appearance.

A VERY POOR LAW:

The Division Of Counties Into Road Districts.
ED. STANDARD:
believe in watching the effect Of
laws that are passed, and if not satis-
factory in their working, or promise
ON their face of becoming such, to
work for their repeal. What advan.
tages do we gain over the old system
OF road districts? I can see none,
not one redeeming feature in the new
law. Each of the four new Supervis-
ors will draw four dollars per day; no
time limit as to number of days view
ing the roads. Their combined pull
on the road fund, be it 1000 or $2,-
500, will be as good as thrown away.
Then, again, the Surveyor must have
pull at the pile at the tune of IS per
day. The cost of the above officials
will diminish that much the available
funds for improving the roads. Here,
on South Bay, are three adjoining dis
tricts that have for some years been
voting from 2 to 10 mills tax for road
purposes-the Supervisors of said dis
tricts working themselves, working
like Trojans, not allowing any shirk-
ing, and it is we'll known fact that
the South Bay roads are among the
best in the county. We had begun to
think that in few years the roads
would need only patching, and light
tax would be all sufficient to keep
them good, but now We are held up to
help other districts, that would not
help themselves, by levying sufficient
tax for the purpose OF making good
roads. 1t looks like political sinch.
In the appointment of Supervisors the
most experienced men ought to be ap-
pointed to do the work. In one case,
. man was given an expensive job,
without experience, who was better
judge of firstclass pan-roast than
the work in question. Under the old
system the Supervisor of his district
knew every inch of the road and what
treatment to apply. And then again
the taxpayer could work out his tax;
under the new law, it will be hard
ship to many to pay cash, that are just
making start in the woods.
Most of the taxpayers whom l have
conversed with do not like the new
deal. They feel very much like the
man would have felt had he taken the
old darkey's bark remedy. The old
darkey said to scrape the bark upward
would act like an emetic; to scrape
the bark downward it is a cathartic.
When questioned as to its effects,
when scraped both ways, he scratched
his head for while and then said
that it mout cause powerful reck-
shun in his innards. That is about
the way the people feel about the road
law. Tho big sum that will be ab.
sorbed by travelling Supervisors would
show better results in grading and
graveling.
The new system would also make
more work for the County Commits.
sioners and Auditor; therefore more
expense. 1t is centralizing too much
power into the hands of the Commits.
sioners. The people ought to have
something to say about the spending
of their own money; therefore hope
that in the coming campaign the peo-
pie will support only candidates for
the Legislature who will work for the
repeal of this obnoxious law and to
curtail the work of the Surveyor SIM
ply to surveying.

The Way to Cook Steak.

Some people can tell you how to fry
steak, but the best cooks are OF the
opinion that fried steak is spoiled
steak. A good porterhouse or q ten
derloin, cut rather thick and broiled
over clear Goals, in the gas oven or
over the blue flame OF . gasoline stove
is much healthier and more sppetiz-
ing. To accomplish this purchase a
wire bread toaster that lie not wider
than the lid TO one OF the stove holes.
Place the meat between the wire sides;
have the obnoxious gases burned out
OF the fuel 80 the Goals are good and
clean; remove the stove lid, and place
the wire broiler next to the Goals.
Turn the broiler over often, and as
soon as it is cooked to your taste re.
move it from broiler to hot frying
pan, where you can season it with salt
and pepper, and as much granulated
sugar as you do salt. Then a piece of
good butter the size Of an egg should
be placed on top OF the smoking, saw
ory broil, and the whole placed upon o
hot platter with parsley for . garnish,
and served at once. Never cook the
steak until the last thing, and then
make it smell of the fire. Meat
cooked rare after this fashion will fur
nish material for the laboring man or
the brain worker to meet his foes and
conquer.
