STATE DEPARTMENT DIsPLEAsED
Russian Delay In Acting Upon This
Government's Representations.

The State Department has just been In
formed officially that the Vladivostok prize
court has condemned the steamer Calchas
cargo Of American goods. made up OF ma
cfsinery, cotton. -four and miscellaneous
Goods The vessel belonged to the Alfred
Holt Company Of England. but was under
stood to be chartered by the Northern "a
cific Railroad and Steamship Company
She sailed from Tacoma. Washington, July
last for Liverpool by way Of Suez, but
was to touch at oriental ports to discharge
cargo en- route. She was captured by mo
vladivostok squadron.
The State Department Is growing fmpa-
tent over the inexplicabie delay at 81.
Petersburg in acting upon Its representa-
tons relative to Russian captures OF Amer
lean goods The Calcha's case has now
been added to the growing list, and the
officials here feel that American commerce
in the Pacific is greatly threatened and I'M
warrantably so. Consequently there is
disposition to press for definite statement
of Russian pretensions as to this class OF
trade, and unless something 10 soon heard
from the commission at st. petersburg
which is reported to be dealing with this
question, 1t is probable that some strong
will be made through Am
bassador Mccormick.

IN MEMORY OF MCKINLEY.
Third Anniversary at Canton Today
Floral Tributes.

CANTON. Ohio. September 14.-Today. the
third anniversary of the death of President
Mckinley, was noted with deep sorrow in
his home city. A wreath of flowers came
from Secretary Of Agriculture Wilson early
In the day and taken to the tomb and
laid on the casket. Other floral tributes
arrived on later trains.
Mrs Mckinley visited the tomb during
the morning to place fresh flowers on the
casket. Her condition shows little change
except that physically she is stronger. The
improved physical condition, which began
with recovery from the acute attack sus-
tanned in California and Interrupted by the
Buffalo tragedy has continued since re-
covery from the first shock and she is
now better than she had been for some
years before the Presidents death. While
she takes a deeper interest In personal and
general affairs, she seldom leaves her home
except for the drives taken almost daily.
Many old friends visit her from time to
time and she appears to find great pleasure
In their company.

AT OYSTER BAY TODAY.
Case of the Lena-Bellamy Storer to
Call Tonight.

OYSTER BAY, L. l. September 14.-There
have been no new developments in the case
of the Russian auxiliary cruiser at San
Francisco, so far can be ascertained
here today. 1t seems reasonably certain
that the vessel will be dismantled and or
dered to remain where she is now until the
conclusion OF the Russo-Japanese war, but
Anal decision on that point may not be
reached for a day two. A possibility
exists that she may be ordered ito depart
after making urgent repairs, but 1t Is only
a possibility.
As the weather was too disagreeable for
out-of-door pleasures President Roosevelt
passed the greater part of today in his IL
brary. He spent several hours with Secre-
tary Loeb attending to government business
and personal correspondence
Bethany Storer. American ambassador to
Austria Hungary, who is in this country on
leave, will be a guest of the President to-
night.

TRANSPORTATION By TUBE.
Proposed Scheme to Transport Packages
and Mail Matter.

CHICAGO, September IA pneumatic
tube eighteen inches in diameter between
Chicago and Milwaukee, that will trans
port packages ana mail between the two
cities In forty minutes-at the rate OF
more than two miles a minute-and give
a lightning express service to all the
towns along the route, Is proposed by
concern which has installed pneumatic
tube systems in some OF the largest Chi
cago business houses.
The cost Of the line is placed at $780,
900. AS the distance Is about $40 miles,
this is at the rate of $685. a mile. Elk
penses of maintenance and operation will
be SO small. it is asserted, that the COM
pany can afford to carry freight at less
than the price now charged by any COM
mon carrier.
By the vacuum system used by the COM
pany the air in the tubes Is partially ex-
hausted in front of the carrier instead of
being forced at high pressure back of
the carriers. as in other pneumatic sys-
TENS. An arrangement of pumps, valves
and levers makes it possible to divide the
line into short sections. each operated
independently, so that distance, accord
Ing to the company, practically cuts no
figure as regards practicability of opera
ton.

Her sister cities look on her with sym pathy and sorrow; They feel-oh, God in heaven, yes!-the weight of woe she bears. Too soon 1t is to speak about the bright ness of the morrow! The night is dark; the clouds are black; ones heart, appalled,, despairs. One cannot tell the sympathy that through
 ones being surges: Deep grief must lack expression, for no human tongue can tell The story of heart beat, though it ever. ever urges
 Since our hearts are feeling pity let our pockets feel as well.', Of sympathy that's tender 'tis a crude but strcng expression: The only way that some of us can show tho thought that starts Tis the instinct to assist the nan that's down.

VALUE .oF LEMONS.

How TIsis Fruit May Be Used For
 Beauty and Health.
 1t is now timely to administer to all women little sermon on the value of lemons on the dressing table, says the Chicago Inter Ocean. If you appre- ciated its many uses you would have a lemon always at hand. In the morn ing, before you are out of bed, its use- fitness begins not merely as beauti- fer, but as a medicine, for. the juice of half a lemon squeezed into tumbler of water (no sugar. is a most excellent cure for bilious complaints.
 The fingers or finger nails may have stains that refuse to yield to soap and water, in which case a little lemon juice will usually prove successful. Be fore manicuring the nails you should always soak them for at least five min utes in basin of water in which are few drops of lemon juice. The skin which grows so extensively around the nails is pushed back by orange wood sticks first dipped in lemon juice. And as for the teeth, no more effective cleanser or purer mouth wash can be found than half dozen drops of lemon juice in wineglass of water.
 After washing the hands lemon juice and water make splendid bleach, but it is fact that lemon juice pure darkens the skin, so do not make the mistake of rubbing in plain lemon juice instead of diluting it with water. Lemon juice and glycerin are good for chapped hands.
 If you have a hoarse voice in the morning lemon juice squeezed into soft sugar till 1t is like sirup and few drops of glycerin added relieves the hoarseness at once, while cold on the chest or consumption itself finds a formidable enemy in the following pre- scription: Squeeze the juice of three lemons over three whole eggs, shell and all Tn two or three days time the shell will have softened because of the ef- feet of the lemons acid on the lime composition of the she'll Then add a pint of rum and pound of pulverized brown sugar candy. You can bottle this and take a spoonful every morning upon rising. It is simply wonderful as a tonic
