SELECT PAUL MORTON.
Equitable Directors Put Him at Head
OF Society.

New York, June 12.-Paul Morton,
who retires from the secretaryship OF
the navy on July 1, was elected chair
man of the Equitable Life Assurance
Society. His election marks the first
and most important step in the reor-
ganization of the society and was fol-
lowed by the tender of the resigna-
ton of President James W. Alexand'
err, Vice President James H. Hyde.
Second Vice President ]. G. Tarbelli
Third Vive President George T. Will
son and Fourth Vice President Will
liam H. Mcintyre.
1t is known that Brayton Ives and
Charles Stewart Smith, who were
from the outset of the controversy
on the side of the conservative ele'
ment, protested against some of the
proceedings of the meeting, and are
believed to have voted against Mr..
Morton's election.
The new chairman, to quote Sena-
tor Depew, did not consent to take
office until he had received positive
assurances that he would have free
hand as to measures and men,"
Mr. Hyde "divested" himself of the
majority control but as made clear in
his letter to the board, retains a sub
stantial interest in the society.

sian and Japanese plenipotentiaries
or delegates, without any intermedi-
airy, in order to see II it is not possible
for these representatives OF the two
powers to agree to terms OF peace.
The president earnestly asks that the
Russian and Japanese governments
do now agree to such meeting, and
is asking these governments to agree
likewise. While the president does
not feel that any intermediary should
be called with respect to the peace
negotiations themselves, he is entire
ly willing to do what he properly can
if the powers concerned feel that his
services will be of effect in arranging
the preliminaries as to the time and
place of meeting. But If even these
preliminaries can be arranged direct
ly between the two powers, or In any
other way, the president will be glad,
as his sole purpose is to bring about
meeting which the whole civilized
world will pray may result in peace"

Market for Tree stumps.

A new industry in the region at the
head of the lakes is the gathering OF
the tree stumps for use in the Maine
shipyards. A large number of wooden
ships are built every year, and 1t has
been found that the most efficient cor
ner braces are those made from these
stumps and hundreds are shipped east
every day. The roots of the trees and
a short section of the stump are used
in making the braces, and stumps
from trees about foot in diameter
are found to be the best. The stump
is taken from the ground and roughly
hewn into shape before being shipped.
After it's receipt at the shipyards 1t
is made into a perfect brace. The
cost of carload of the stumps is
close to $500. and the freight charges
run over 500 car.-Milwaukee Sen

GAS AND WAFER
Is ONE AS NECESSARY AZ THE
OTHER?
Citizens Of Large Cities Say II is.

New York, June 13.-In the recent
agitation here about the price Of gas,
the demand for lower rates was sup
ported by the argument that every
resident is as dependent upon sup
ply of gas as upon supply Of good
water.
1t has come to pass that the day
1aborer uses gas as his only fuel Tor
cooking, because of economy, and the
rich man uses gas on account OF Its
convenience. Gas for lighting, with
modern improvements In burners, is
cheaper, better and more satisfactory
than any other kind Of light Gas
sells at S1.00 per thousand cubic feet
in large cities and from that to as
high as $500 in smaller towns.
The consumer of gas in the country
uses Acetylene pronounced a-set-a-
lene), and each user makes his own
gas and is independent of Gas and
Electric Companies. Acetylene is
more perfect illuminant than the gas
sold by the big gas companies in the
cities, and the cost to the smallest
user is about the equivalent Of city
gas at IS cents per thousand.
Acetylene is the modern artificial
light, the latest addition to the many
inventions that have become daily
necessities.
The light from an acetylene flame
is soft, steady and brilliant, and in
quality is only rivaled by the suns
rays. If water and a solid material
known as Calcium Carbide are
brought into contact, the immediate
: result is the making Of this wonder
full gas. The generation of acetylene
is so simple that experience or even
apparatus is not necessary to make
1t. If it is desired to make it for prac-
tical lighting, and to keep it for i'm
mediate use, then small machine
called an "Acetylene Generator" Is
employed. There are many RESPONSE
BILE concerns making acetylene gener-
ators. In practice, this gas is dis
tributed in small pipes throughout
buildings, grounds, or entire cities
and towns, in the same manner as
ordinary city gas. Acetylene is the
only satisfactory means of lighting
isolated buildings located in the coun-
try or suburbs at distance from city
gas or electric plants.

REASON FOR WANTING RAIN.

Rev. Mr.. Livingston Of Georgia,
told this story:
"a friend of mine down in one oil

proteges among the people in the
mountain country near. Several years
ago there was long dry spell In
Georgia. At about the beginning Of
it the wife of one of the mountaineers
died. The disconsolate husband fol
lowed her to the grave and was the
last to leave the burying ground. His
footprints remained, large and dis
tinct, in the clay beside the grave. Six
weeks afterward my friend drove out
to see how the widower was doing. He
was sitting in the door of his cabin
staring hopelessly at the cloudless
sky.

FEED YOUNG GIRLS.
Must Have Right Food While Grow

Great care should be taken at the
critical period when the young girl
is just merging into womanhood that
the diet shall contain all that is up
building and nothing harmful.
At that age the structure is being
formed and if formed of healthy,
sturdy character, health and happi-
ness will follow; on the other hand
unhealthy cells may be built in and
sick condition slowly supervene
which, if not checked, may ripen into
a chronic disease and cause lifelong
suffering.
A young lady says:
Coffee began to have such an effect
on my stomach few years ago, that

found its effects even worse than
those I suffered from coffee. Then
for a long time drank milk alone at
my meals. but 1t never helped me

NAMES BEST DOCTOR
MIR. BAYsSON PUBLISHES RESULTS
OF VALUABLE EXPERIENCE.
A. Former Pronounced Dyspeptic He Now
Rejoices in Perfect Freedom from
Miseries of Indigestion.

Rejoices in Perfect Freedom from
Miseries of Indigestion.
Thousands Of sufferers know that the
reason why they are irritable and de-
pressed and nervous and sleepless is be.
cause their food does not digest, but how
to get rid of the difficulty is the pnzzling
question.
Good digestion calls for strong diges-
tive organs, and strength comes from
supply of good rich blood. For this
reason Mr.. Baysson took DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for the cure of indigestion.
"They have been my best doctor" he
says. 81 was suffering from dyspepsia.
The pains i'll my stomach after meals
were almost unbearable. My sleep was
very irregular and my complexion was
sallow. AS the result of using eight
boxes of DIR. Williams Pink Pills, about
the merits of which l learned from
friends in France, have escaped all
these troubles, and am able again to take
pleasure in eating"
A very simple story, but if it had not
been for DIR. Williams Pink Pills it
might have been tragic one. When dis
comfort begins with eating, fills mp the
intervals between meals with pain. and
prevents sleep at night, there certainly
cannot be much pleasure in living. A
final general breaking down must be
merely question Of time.
Mr.. Joseph Baysson is a native OF
Aix-les- Bains, France, but now resides
Mt No. 2439 Larlin street, San Francisco,
Cal. He is one of great number who
can testify to the remarkable efficacy of
DR.. Williams Pink Pills in the treatment
of obstinate disorders of thestomach.
If you would getrid of nausea, pain or
burning in the stomach, vertigo, ner-
vousness, insomnia, or any of the other
miseries of q dyspeptic, get rid Of the
weakness Of the digestive organs by the
use of DIR. Williams Pink Pills. They
are sold by druggists everywhere.
Proper diet is, of course, a great aid in
forwarding recovery once begun. and a
little book, "What to Eat and How to
Eat" may be obtained by any one who
makes a request for it by writing to the
DR.. williams Medical Co., Schenectady,
NY. This valuable diet book contains
an important. chapter on the simplest
means for the cure Of oonstination.

On His Departure For a Brief Outing
President Is Assured.
MAY Be NO MORE BLooDSHEO.
The BelIgerents Are Urged to Deal
With Each Other.-it Is Believed
That the Last Blow Has Been
Struck.

Washington, June ~. = The White
House gave out a statement contain
ing a dispatch sent by the president
to the Japanese and Russian govern
ments, urging them, not only for their
own sakes, but in the interest of the
whole civilized world, to open negotia-
lions for peace with each other. The
president suggests that these nego-
tiations be conducted directly and ex-
clusively between the belligerents.
While the president does not feel that
any Intermediary should be called in
in respect to these negotiations, he is
willing to do what he can properly in
arranging the preliminaries for the
time and place of meeting.
When President Roosevelt left
Washington on a two days trip to
Virginia he was confident that the re-
suits of the international negotiations
for peace in the Far East had been
successful and that the final blow in
the Russo-Japanese war had been
struck. So deeply interested is he in
bringing the two belligerent nations
to common understanding that he
would not have left the White House
at the time when the situation was so
delicate until he had obtained assur-
ances that his efforts to bring Russia
and Japan into contact in an amicable
spirit had successfully been conclud-
ed
An identical note, the text of which,
by authority of the president, was
made public late at the White House
by Secretary Loeb, has been forward
ed to the governments of Russia and
Japan by President Roosevelt. In
the interest of humanity the president
urges the warning nations to conclude
peace. 1t is suggested by the presi-
dent that the negotiations for peace
be conducted directly and exclusive
ly between the belligerent nations"
The note indicates the presidents be-
| lief that an Intermediary may not be
necessary to effect conclusive nego-
tiations, but likewise expresses the
presidents willingness to do all that
he properly may do to promote the
preliminary arrangements for time
and place for a meeting of represen-
tatives of the Russian and Japanese
governments. The following is the
text, as given out
| On June the following dispatch
was sent by the president through
diplomatic channels to the Japanese
and Russian governments:
1.-THE president feels that the time
has come when in the interest of all
mankind he must endeavor to see if it
is not possible to bring to an end the
terrible and lamentable conflict now
being waged. With both Russia and
Japan the United States has inherited
ties of friendship and good will. 1t
hopes for the prosperity and welfare
of each and it feels that the progress
between these two great nations. The
president accordingly urges the Rus
sian and Japanese governments, not
only for their own sakes, but in the
interest of the whole civilized world,
to open direct negotiations for peace
with one another. The president sug-
gests that these peace negotiations be
conducted directly and exclusively be-
tween the belligerents; in other words
that there may be a meeting of Rus

Pa, were quietly passing the fortieth
anniversary of their wedding a few
days ago when without any warning
their thirteen married sons and
daughters, twenty-five grandchildren,
eleven great-grandchildren and lot
of nelghbors drove up and took pos
session of the place. The old folks
had been feeling rather hurt that no
notice seemed to be taken OF the day.
The visitors brought materials for a
bountiful dinner, at the conclusion OF
which A. J. Shaw, a granddaughter,
drove up with Miss Sarah Buskiner
and a clergyman and was married.
Altogether it was the most notable
celebration seen in that section for
many day.
