waters about New York is absolutely
dead this season, and the owners ad-
NIT that the Slocum disaster did it.
Not since the General Slocum burn
ed and sank in the East River on June
Is, 1904, with a loss of 1881 lives,
have the churches and Sunday schools
of Greater New York organized their
many cases were repeated three and
four times each season.
In addition to this the stricter in
spect!on of the vessels carrying ex-
cursion crowds has caused the en-
forced retirement of no less than 10
notorious huIks from the service.
They could not even be rebuilt to con-
form with the new federal regula-
tons
One of the condemned vessels, the
Grand Republic, which was a sister
boat to the Slocum, has been sold at
auction for $4,000 and will be taken

in the future may be returned to this
port, when the public has forgotten
its identity.
In addition to laying up 10 of the
old excursion vessels to make them
comply with regulations this year in
spite CT this the business is at a stand
still, and some companies have been
forced to go out of business
Steamboat men say it will be four
or five years before the effect of the
Slocum disaster has worn away. Yet
more than a year after the disaster,
no one has been punished for the
criminal neglect which made it pos
sible.

With Lewis and Clark.

Captains Lewis and Clark made
record in their official journals as fol-
lows, for July IL, 1905, or 100 years
ago today: In the morning one of the
canoes Joined Captain Clark; the
other three having on board more
valuable articles, which would have
been injured by the water, went on
more cautiously. and did not reach the
camp until evening. Captain Clark
then had the canoes unloaded and
sent back but the high wind prevent
ed their floating down nearer than
about eight miles above us. His party
were busily engaged with the canoes,
and their hunters supplied them with
three fat deer and a buffalo, in ad-
dition to two deer and an antelope
killed yesterday. The FIVE men who
were with Captain Lewis were occu-
pied in hunting, but with not much
success, having killed only one buf-
falo. They heard about sunset two
discharges of the tremendous noun
tain artillery; they also saw several
very large gray eagles, much larger
than those of the United States, and
most probably a distinct species,
though the bald eagle of this country
is not quite so large as that of the
United States. The men have been
much afflicted with painful withlows.

TAFT'S MISSION.
Threatened Crisis In tho Islands Cause
OF Visit

A threatened crisis in the govern
ment affairs of the Philippine islands;
the partial failure of the administra-
ton of Governor General Luke
Wright, says the San Francisco Ex-
aminer.
These are the two things which
make It imperative for Secretary of
War Taft to go to the Philippines
These are the things which the presi-
dent mad in mind when he told Sec
retary Taft that the things he had in
trusted to him in connection with his
tour of the distant Orient wee too
important for him to turn back on the
occasion of the death Of John Hay.
one of the serious things which has
given cause for alarm to the govern
ment here is the almost open resist
ance On the part of the natives to the
levying of internal and land taxes.
The defect in the Wright admins
tration was explained today by an OF
fetal. who said:
Wright believes a thing is right
and tells the natives so. and orders
that il be done. He expects inmedi-
ate compliance 1t is enough for him
to know that the policy decided upon
is the right one Taft Insisted upon
having his way lust as strongly bu'
he made the native think he was hav-
ing his own way He brought the ma
tive around to believe that what Nas
required Of him should be compiled
| with on selfish and ambitious grounds
Taft used diplomacy; Wright used
bludgeon. Wright also has tlund''reo
in the Friar lands matter. Matters

Noted Brigand Killed.

Rome, July 11.-FranceSco Demi-
chelis, the notorious brigand, who was
called the Varsalona of Northern Italy,
has been killed in a fight with car
biniers. The brigand was hero at
a ball at wayside inn. There were
40 couples and he paid for all the
wine drunk. The carhiners heard of
his whereabouts and fastened to the
ball. But the brigand and his COM
panion succeeded in escaping to the
forest When they were pursued
Demichelis fired his revolver four
times at carbinier named Soverini,
wounding him seriously. But the car
binier had sufficient strength to fire
his revolver at the brigand, and shot
him dead. The Duke of Aosta, when
ne heard of the brigand's end, sent
his congratulations to the wounded
carbinier.

A Bit Of Sicily.

There Is no Italian town more pic
turesque than the Sicilian capital, Pa
lermo," writes a traveller. 'In its port
lie crowded the queerest coasting craft
l have ever set eyes on. Sailing ships
OF all rigs, their hulls painted all the
colors of the rainbow, nose up against
the quay, where mule carts, whose
drivers are shouting at the top Of their
voices, wait to take away the mer-
chandise. The narrow street where the
custom house officers examine the
goods brought ashore is place Of ter
rife noise. When driver, two clerks
and two custom house officers are dis
cussing the contents Of bale or cask
It seems as though murder must be
committed within the next few sec
onds. But somebody signs something,
the cart moves on, and everybody
laughs"

DREADFUL POlSONS.

Produce Incuruble IdiOcy.
The more dreadful poisons," said a
chemist, ARE only known to few
men. Mercury methide, for instance,
the inhalation Of whose fumes pro
duces incurable idiocy, can be manu-
factured by two Italians and by no
one else in the world.
"Dhatoora is a poison used In India.
It, too, produces incurable idiocy. A
British army officer told me Of a sad
Casa case Of two rival tailors, one
Of whom gave the other small dose
Of dhatoora. The victim Of the drug
remained an idiot all the rest Of his
life. He sat and moved his empty
hands as though he were sewing. he
was a formidable rival no longer.
"Mercaptan produces a melancholy
80 great as to terminate nearly always
In suicide. No government would per
NIT the manufacture and sale Of this
poison.
"Dhatoora, mercury methide, mer'
captain and some twenty other poisons
are neither made nor sold in any pub
lie way. They are only experimental
with. Such poisons would be formid
able weapons in unscrupulous hands
Driving their victims to suicide or tC
insanity, they leave behind them moth
ing suspicious or untoward. The givel
of these poisons is secure from any
fear of punishment
Hence It is no wonder, is 1t, thai
the learned men who know such pol
sons keep their knowledge to them
selves.-C Chicago Chronicle.

CAREFUL OF THE FIRE.
The stinGy Hotel Keepers of Spain
and Southern Italy.

ana oOotneEn
In the smaller hotels Of southern
Italy and Of Spain. writes Mr.. Hart
IN Two ArROnauts In Spain" the un-
fortunate tourists slowly freeze. The
landlords display a touching solicit
ude about the stove. On days when
fre is really needed to keep the guests
warm they sometimes spend half their
time trying to keep the servants from
putting too much fuel on the fire.
To prevent Americans and other
pyromaniacs from meddling with the
fuel they often keep the coal bin lock
cd. II Is a touching spectacle to see q
group Of Americans shivering round q
little stove: to see the servant enter,
take out key. unlock the coal bin,
put two or three spoonfuls Of coal in
the stove and then lock the bin again;
to see the gimlet eye Of Granada
landlord fastened on him from the Of
fee; then to see the hApless Americans
sink back into their overcoat collars
and wish they were back home.
As an instance OF the desperation to
which these cold hotels drive people ]
once in 4 Levantine hotel saw an
elderly spinster seat herself in front
Of the stove in the mems smoking
room. with her hair down, while an
elderly female friend gave her q dry
shampoo.
To the suggestion Of the scandaliEed
servants that she should finish thiI
intimate toilet operation in her OWL
room she replied briefly that she had
found the only warm place in the no
tel and proposed to finish the shampoo
there, which she did.

ROOT WILL MANAGE CANAL.
New Secretary of State VIII Have
Full Charge.

II is not unlikely that the admins
tration of affairs connected with the
construction of the Panama canal
may be transferred from the war to
the state department, says a Wash
ington dispatch. Since Mr.. Root in
dicated his acceptance of the presi-
dents tender of the secretaryship Of
state, the president has had the mat
ter of the transfer under considera-
ton.
1t is known that Secretary Taft
would be quite willing to be relieved
of the responsibility attendant upon
the Panama canal affair. The ap-
pointment of Judge Magoon to be
minister of the United States to PAN
anna in connection with his office as
government of the American zone On
the isthmus naturally suggests the de-
STABILITY of placing both offices un'
der the direction of the secretary OF
state. Mr.. Root is deeply interested
in the canal work and already has de-
voted much thought to it.

Value of Decayed Forests.

The decayed vegetation Of forests
has furnished to the fields their present
fertility. upon which man depends for
food. In the tree growth OF virgin
woods and in the floor of rotted foliage
beneath are stored the accumulations
Of centuries. Nature does not care
whether this growth is useful to the
human race or not 1t is left for us to
encourage the growth of such trees as
we find valuable to the exclusion Of
others. Thus an economical use is made
OF the resources at hand, and a new
conception Of the forest arises. The
forest prlmeval becomes woodlands" 4"
while the new forest" includes only
cultivated woods.
