GULF STREAM RUNS
AT USUAL SPEED.

Capt. stasse, of the "zeeburg," Fails
TO Note Reported swiftness.
Reports OF greatly increased swift
ness of the Gulf Stream find no con-
firmation at this port. North-bound
ooastwise steamers do not come with

some times on the west edge, near
Cape Hatteras.
There was in port yesterday the
steamer zeeburg, running between Rot
terdam and Savannah. Capt. stasse
commanding. During the last ten
weeks this steamer has crossed the
Gulf Stream twice, but nothing unusual
was noticed. In speaking of the re-
Stream is now running like a mill
race" Capt. Stasse said yesterday:
within the last two months / have
crossed the Gulf Stream twice, my
course taking me perhaps $50 miles
each time through the stream. ] sail

through we take the temperature OF
the water, and / think l had an OPP
portunity TO observe II fairly well. In
stead of running like a mill race, I
have noticed nothing unusual, the
speed, think, being about one mile
per hour, running east by north. We
made the usual allowance for detection
and reached the other side about where
we expected. There has been no
change within the last two years that
have observed"

The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union early saw that the best way to
change a nations habits was to change
its way of thinking. The Union knew
this could best be done by planting
scientific truths in the minds of the
children before they were poisoned by
error.
The drinking habits Of people are
largely due to wrong conception OF
the nature of the drink. m 1882, Yer
mont passed the first law requiring this
instruction in public schools.
State after state fell into line and ia
1902 Georgia, the last one passed q law
modelled after the bill passed by Con-
gress, covering territories. and all gov.

Ladies' Auxiliary for Coming Con-
vention to BE Named This Morning.
Whatever may be the final action of
the Elks, for the present they will
await the decision of the Supreme
Court in the controversy between the
Tomochichi Club and the Guards
over the suitcase made by the In
dams.
A prominent member of the Elks
stated yesterday that they are taking
only a mild interest in the matter,
though, of course, they would like to
secure the quarters as at first de-
cided on. Until the controversy over
the point is settled the Elks will re-
main in their present quarters. In
case the final decision is against the
club, it is reasonably sure that the
Elks will take steps for the erection of
a building of their own.
The failure to secure the rooms will
not make any difference with the ar
engagements for the State Convention
next month. The De Soto will be the
headquarters and place of meeting,
while guests will be entertained at
the present headquarters on Broughton
street where "open house" will be kept
This morning a meeting will be held
at the De Soto for the purpose of Sc
lecting a Ladies Auxiliary Committee
and a Reception Committee. 1t is in
tended to make the entertainment of
the ladies who accompany the dele
gates a special feature, and this will
be in the hands of the Ladies Auxil-
larry to be chosen this morning. 1t is
expected that quite number of ladies
win be here.

something of interest will be on tap

WALKED 5000 MILES.
Mythical Prize of SIS, 900 Lured Man to
Contest


St. oLuis. July 27.-WOrld's Fair
Grounds.-Foot sore, travel stained
and weary, Renalod Walco.. a British
subject from San Jose, Costa Rica, has
reached the Worlds Fair after a walk
Of 1000 miles only to find that he had
been deluded by a mythical prize OF
$4,000 which he had heard had been
offered by the exposition company to
the person who walked the longest
distance to attend the fair.
Almost at the same moment that
Walco arrived. another long-distance
pedestrian arrived at the Worlds Fair
grounds in the person Of Mauricius
Richter, Of Bucharest, Roumania, who
had also attempted a long distance
walk and who had met with defeat
Richter started to walk to st Louis
from Bucharest. He undertook to
reach here by July Z. He arrived
many days late and then only after
giving his journey afoot in Washington
and taking a train. The prize he was
after was one of 10000 francs, offered
by the ROumania Touring club of
which Crown Prince Ferdinand is pres.
ident.
Walco had much the longer jour.
ney, as there were no oceans in his
path, and every foot of the way h
walked. He left the little town OF
Esparta in Costa Rica on Dec. 81. In
January he was in Nicaragua, in Feb.
ruary he passed through San Saliva.
dor and April % he reached the city
OF Mexico.
