English Bard Was Right.

Dramatic critics and commentators
have long been puzzled to account for
the fact that Shakespeare placed the
scene Of Hamlet" at Esinore, in the
Island of Zealand, whereas the Dan
ish prince lived and died in Jutland.
But just recently the municipal au-
thorities at Elsinore, or HelsingOr,
have discovered in their archives that
an English company was acting in
their town in 1857 or 1888, and among
the names of the actors are several OF
those who were acting with Shake
speare in London in 1889.
Obviously, these actors must have
talked about their adventures in Den
mark, and so Shakespeare became well
acquainted with Elsinore, and, when
he wrote Hamlet" naturally placed
the scene in place which he knew
by description rather than in an island
OF which he knew nothing. The poet
was no great stickler for accuracy in
geographical matters and this visit OF
the English actors plausibly explains
the reason why the tragedy of Ham
let" was placed in Zealand and not In
Jutland.

Parker Notified.

Esopus, N. Y, Aug. 1t.-Judge A.
B. Par er has received formal notifica-
ton of his nomination for sthe presi-
dency as the candidate of the demo-
cratic party, and in accepting gave
public expression for the first time of
his views on the issues of the cam
paign.
The notification was brought to him
by Representative Champ Clark of
Missouri, as chairman of ssthe conven-
ton, representing every state and terri
tory. Mr.. Clark, in brief speech, in
formed the candidate of his nomina ton
and presented to him a formal COM
munication signed by the committee.
Standing bareheaded, during brief
lull in the rainstorm, which had lasted
since soon after day break, Judge Par
ker accepted the nomination and set
forth his views in a speech that evoked
frequent and hearty applause. He
spoke for little more than half an hour.
The ceremony was held on the lawn
at ROsemount, under the trees at the
north of the house and was attended
by upwards of 600 people, the larger
number of whom came by the commit
tee steamer Sycamore. They included
many democrats of national promi-
nence, also large and representative
delegation from Tammany hall.

TO SAVE CHILDREN.
Physical Culture as Means to Ward
Off Tuberculosis.

An athletic club, which fixes its dues
at the extortiOnate figure of one cent a
week, suggests an unusual departure
In the world of clubs Moreover, for
many other reasons, the Children's
Athletic Club of Philadelphia, com
posed entirely of the children of the
poor, organized to fight by physical
training the ravages of tuberculosis,
marks an important innovation in the
charitable work of that city. Mrs.
Florence L. Williams, the founder of
the club, has certain definite objects
to accomplish with the sixty little pu-
pits under her charge. That she is
able not merely to bring muscle and
health in place Of weakness and even
disease through a careful system Of
physical culture, but also to develop a
trick team capable of performing aero
batic feats of no little difficulty, proves
the efficacy of her methods.
For her clientele Mrs. Williams de-
Ponds entirely upon the children of the
crowded quarters of the city, where
poor food and unhealthy surroundings

BILE From the children of these quar-
tiers of the city Mrs. Williams has or
ganized her classes, the membership
of which has grown from three to six
ty. But even here the selection of
members Is made from the weaker and
the more anaemic; from the children
who already show signs OF the inva-
sion of the great white plague"
whose tiny arms and hollow chests in
dictate lack of vitality.
With such subjects 1t Is natural that
at the outset the exercises of the class
es should be of the mildest sort-hve
minute drills with the lghtest of
dumbells, interspersed with frequent
rests. Special breathing exercises are
prescribed for the new members, and

BOMB IN NEW YORK CROWD.
Score of People injured by the Ex-
ploson.


New York, Aug. 10.-A bomb thrown
into a crowd of Italians in One Hun
dred and Fifteenth street injured a
score or more and led to the arrest Of
VincenzO Donetto. Donetto, the po-
lice believe, is member of the "Black
Hand" society, which for some time
has terrorized residents of the Italian
district here, extorting money from
them by threats and acts of violence.
Donetto was himself more severely
injured by the bomb than any of the
others, one leg being badly torn. Two
rival saloonkeepers on opposite street
corners were giving away beer, in an
effort to Guido each other, and a crowd
surrounded each place.
Peter Dimero, who was acting as
dOorkeeper at one of the saloons, says
that Donetto approached him and de-
manded money, which was refused.
He Immediately stepped back, took a
bomb from his pocket, lighted it's fuse
and threw it. An explosion followed,
and men, women and children ran
screaming from the place. Donetto was
knocked down, but soon recovered
sufficiently to be able to get away.

Lockjaw, or tetanus, Is caused by
the development in the body of the
tetanus bacillus, a germ living in the
soil in many places, especially in city
streets, round barns and stables and
In pastures. This bacillus does not
grow readily when exposed to the air.
so there is usually little danger of
lockjaw following large wounds. The
danger lies in the punctured wounds,
the ragged wounds, and often also the
seemingly trivial wounds which heal
rapidly, and so seal up the tetanus
germ away from the air; there it finds
the conditions most favorable to its
development and the manufacture OF
the nerve poison which causes the
symptoms Of this terrible disease.
Such being the case, the treatment of
little wounds from pistols, torpedoes
and crackers is to make them bigger.
This requires some courage on the
part of the doctor and the more cour.

insignificant is the wound, and par.

pleading against the necessity of cut
ting deeply into the wound, opening IL
widely and washing it out thoroughly
with antiseptic solutions 1t is only in
this way that the danger of lockjaw
can be reduced to a minimum. and
even this in exceptional cases does not
prevent the disease.
The modern treatment for this dis
ease is the injection Of tetanus anti
toxin. Even this may fail If injected
simply under the skin or into the mus
cles, and the antitoxin has occasion

ering the spinal cord. or even beneath
the membranes of the brain, so that IL
may the more directly reach the nerve
centers chiefly affected by the poison.

To prevent train derailments Ger
man railroad official, Herr Gehricke,
has invented an adjustable rail, to be
attached to the trucks of cars parallel
with the axles, and carried about an
inch above the track rails. If the
wheels jump the track the cross rails
just described will Immediately rest
upon the track rails and prevent the
wheels from touching .Ae ground, and
the car will slide along, borne by the
cross rails. To diminish the jar the
cross rails are supplied with springs,
and projections beneath them are cal
culated to prevent the deralled car
from swinging aside from the track.
Not all fishes are dumb, but many
species emit sounds and few give re-
markable concerts. Instances of the
latter have been collected by Henri
Coupin, French author On the
western coast of Borneo, Prayer one
night heard musical sounds varying
from the resonance of an organ to the
soft tones of an Aeolian harp; and in
the China Sea, a United States naval
officer was struck by an extraordinary
blending of the low notes of an organ,
the noise Of bells and the sounds of a
great harp, the intensity causing the
vessel to CULVER. The pogonias or
tambours of the tropical western coast
of the Atlantic sometimes congregate
about vessels, producing a maddening
chorus.
The destructive power of naval
guns becomes every year more terrible.
The latest type Of gun introduced in

The barrel is made up Of an inner

steel wire. This gun is reckoned equal
in destructive power to the 131a-inch
bore guns that preceded 1t, which

muzzle velocity of the projectile is 2,

JAPs PRAISE kuRoPATklN.
Ability to Withdraw From Old POSI-
ton Causes Admiration.

General Kuropatkn's success in ex-
Treating his army from the Liaotung
peninsula without disaster has elected
much praise from ,Ae Japanese. The
concentration of his army at Kaichou
at one time seemed TO involve it in
disaster. 1t was popularity believed
that a general and decisive battle
would De fought e4.Aer at Tatchekiao
or at IIaicheng.
1t is considered here that Kuropat-
kin sacrificed his prestige by abandon
ing an immense territory Without a
battle. He was forced to abandon or
destroy valuable stores and munitions
of war when transportation was the
most serious problem to the Russians.
He also impaired the morale of his
army, but he preserved his men and
guns. 1t is evident that he had hoped
and planned to check the Japanese at
Tatchekiao. Then, after holding the
enemy in check, it is believed to have
been his purpose to concentrate his re-
naming force at Liaoyang and to
strike kuroki.

Crisis Near.

The unexpected loss of the Russian
left at Tatchekiao and the appearance
of the Japanese Takushan army on the
flank forced the abandonment and sur
render, without a fight, of Kinkow,
HaIcneng and 4>ewchwang. 1t is gener-
ally Yoneved that the crisis will come
shortly at Liaoyang and that Kuropat-
kin Will be forced to give battle, what
ever his present purpose may be. Gen
eral Oku's and the Takushan armies
are pressing northward, and General
Kuroki is close at hand, ready to take
any part necessary in the general Jap
anese play.
The possession of Yinkow has enor-
mously simpllfied the transportation
problem for the Japanese. 1t gives
their two armies a freedom of move
ment wnlul. they have heretofore not
possessed. The Japanese are speedily
repairing the railroad which the kus-
slams failed to seriously damage in
their hasty retreat.

Ballet DispOses of His Inter
eStS in Baker County

Baker City, April 27.-Two impor-
tant documents were fled in the re.
corder's Office at the court house
yesterday.
One is a deed and the other a bill
of sale, and what the real meaning
Of the papers is, is a matter of con
lecture. c. H.. Stuller, now general
manager of the White Swan mines,
limited, is the party who made the
filings.
The first paper is a deed from Let
som Ballet, of San Francisco, to the
White Swan Mines company, and
gears the date Of June 10, 1901.
For the sum and consideration of
$40, he conveys to the above named
company the White Swan No. 1, Red
Ledge, Rather and Black Bear quartz
mining claims, located in Baker coun.
ty, Oregon, stating in the conveyance
that he transfers all that he owns in
said property individually and as trus.
tee for said company.
The next document is one that is
liable to set people guessing on &C.
count Of several transactions which
have taken place recently.
This paper IS a bill of sale and is
dated March 20, 1904, and is ac.
knowledged before Geo. f. Knox, a
notary public of San Francisco.

Democrats against Moore sees only
blackness ahead, and would like to

Republicans will place the manage
ment of their campaign in the hands
of an executive committee of 10 mem
bers. The personnel of the committee
will be announced in a few days. w.
L. Boise, chairman of the county com
mittee, will be ex-oficio chairman. OF
the IA other members, ten will each
represent one of the ten wards in the
city and four will represent the coun-
try.
Mr.. Boise and five members of
the county committee delegated for
the duty will select IA men. Eligibles
are now under consideration.
After the appointment of the exec
utive committee, Republicans will
open the campaign with a flourish and
will continue the fight with vigor un-
til the election. Each ward member
of the executive committee will com
mand the Republican forces of his
ward and will direct a system that
will reach every voter in his pre-
cincts.
I'VE will make things lively for
the Democrats" said Mr.. Boise. with
in a week we shall have our organ
ization ready and then we shall sail
into the Democrats at once. 1t will
be a straight contest between Re.
publicans and Democrats this year,
and we shall conduct the fight on par
ty issues. Lines between the two par.
ties will be clearly defined, and Re-
publican victory will be the more de-
cisive on that account. We desire
to run up a large Republican majority
in this county, so as to demonstrate
in the strongest possible manner
Roosevelt's popularity.
I'm about a week we shall open the
campaign with a big mass meeting of
the entire city. Then we shall hold
frequent rallies in the several wards.
Brass bands will stir up the enthus-
iasm, and good speakers will employ
Republican doctrine to rally voters
under the Republican aud Roosevelt
banner"
Mr.. Boise doesn't believe that Demo.
