JAPAN'S GREAT FLEET.
Emperor Reviews Over Three Hun
dred Warships.

Tokio.-The naval review on Monday
passed off without the slightest hitch.
1t was a most impressive sight, not,
however, on account of the size and
number of the ships, but as conglom-
Grafton OF fighting craft fresh from the
war and crowned with victories of un-
precedented magnitude.
Three hundred and eight warships,
including the former Russian battle
ships Peresviet (re-named by the Jap
anese the SaCami), Poltava (Tango),
Nicola l. QlID, the ironclads General
Admiral Apraxine (Okinoshima) and
Admiral Seniavian (Minoshima) /,
twelve auxiliary cruisers, including
three chartered vessels, twenty-eight
torpedo boat destroyers, including the
captured Bedovi and Ryeschitelni, sew
enty-seven torpedo boats and five sub
marine boats, were drawn up in six
lines.
The Emperor, on board the cruiser
Asama, led by the protected cruiser
Yaeyama and escorted by the gunboats
Tatsuta. Chihaya and Manshu, passed
along the front of the first line, which
was headed by the battleship Shiki-
shima, Admiral Togo's flagship. When
the Nicolai l., which was at the end
of the line, was reached, the cruiser
Asama headed due north and then in
a westerly direction, entering between
the second and third lines and after
ward resumed her original position.
During this maneuver Admiral Togo
was at the Emperor's side.
The Emperor then received in audi
ence on board the Asamaya Admiral
Noel and the captains of the British
and American warships present 1.-THE
battleship Wisconsin and the cruiser
CincinnatD.

RUBBER WEED AT DURANGO.
Big Prospects of Southwestern Colo
RADIO City.

Denver.-Out of the formerly useless
and unsightly rabbit weed, or brush,
which has been used for years as
chewing gum by plainsmen and In
dians, the city of Durango has pro-
duced an excellent quality of rubber.
In the manufacture of rubber it is be-
lieved that the district about Durango
has discovered a new industry which
will result in wealth for all concerned.
w. X. Armstrong, the energetic sec
retary Of the Durango Board of Trade,
is in Denver to attend the meeting OF
the Colorado State Commercial Asso-
citation, says the Republican. He tells
prosperity stories about the Durango
country which put a crimp in any that
have been heard for some time. Fur
thermore, 10 add to the realistic nature
of his stories, he produces the goods.
He displays rubber products second to
none, which have been manufactured
there, and brought with him alfalfa
measuring seven feet three inches
raised by the dry farming process.
Durango took first prize on wheat,
rye, oats, barley and sugar beets at the
st. Louis Exposition he said. Il
brought with me the smallest and larS-
est potatoes / could find in fifteen
acre lot The smallest weighs three
pounds one ounce and the largest eight
pounds and fraction of an ounce, also
samples of oats seven feet tall, which
run 115 bushels to the acre
Not COntented with bringing news
of these record breaking products and
then bringing the products themselves,
Mr. Armstrong has the temerity to say
that within five years Durango will be
| the third largest city in the state. He
says its street car system is.better than
| Denvers and that the building boom
| there is enormous.
Michigan capitalists are back of the
rubber factory at Durango. which is
Eow being completed. Some thirty ma
| chimes are being installed. These will
use twentysiX tons of rabbit brush per
| day. 1t will pay the farmers 81 400 to
| 81 GOO per day for their product and it
| is said that the supply will never come
up with the demand. L. c. Dunbar of
| Detroit and Stuart Baker of Grand
kapids are in charge of the new fac
tory, aIi they are backed by seven or
eight Mic higan capitalists.
Tho rubber weed is to be culti-
waited, seid Mr. Armstrong, "and gov
ernment experts are interested in a
| G40-acre experimental tract near Du'
range. The use of the weed was first
discovered by Myron G. Brownell OF
Denver, whose attention was called to
1t by Mexican who wanted to manu-
facture chewing gum from ii. The rub
ber attributes were discovered by
analysis and experimental work has
increased the per cent of rubber in it. y

MAY LET CONTRACTS.
Government viii Consider PROPOSE.
tons for Canal Work.

Washington.-The government OF the
United States is willing to enter into
contracts with corporations or indi-
viduals for the construction of any por-
ton of the Panama canal.
This statement was made by Secre-
tary Taft while discussing the condi-
tions upon the isthmus and the policy
of the government. There is some
doubt in his mind whether any concern
would be willing to undertake the ex-
cavation Of the Culebra cut.
1t Is not the excavation that will be
SO difficult, SO much as the disposition
of the earth taken from the cut. But
as to the other work, the government
will be ready to enter into contracts
for its completion as soon as it is de-
termined what type of canal will be
constructed.
1t is stated that contracts could not
be made during the preliminary stages
of the work because the government
had to prosecute the construction until
its officers knew what was to be done
and had a sufficient knowledge of the
conditions to pass upon bids and make
judictous contracts.

DUAL CONSCIOUSNESS.
Marvellous Story of Man Who Lost His
Identity.

Colorado Springs-Back of suit
which his attorneys announce Frank
Hughes of this city will file against
the Colorado Midland Company for
S2O,e00 damages is a remarkable story
of how n Colorado Springs mining man
has regained consciousness of his own
personal identity after having served
eighteen months in the Pueblo insane
asylum and subsequently serving a
sentence in the penitentiary for a
crime committed while the man had
no idea who he was, or of his past life.
Hughes was injured in II Colorado
Midland wreck near Cascade on June
%, 1902, and from the moment he
experienced the shock of the concus-
sion he did not have the remotest idea
of who he was and where he was or
what he was doing until an abscess on
the brain broke last Christmas and he
found himself in the Colorado state
penitentiary. He was kept in ignor-
ance by the physicians for one month
of his being felon and was led to
think he was in Colorado Springs
hospital.
Hughes has just returned to this city
in an effort to find his wife and
daughter. He thinks that they have
left the country, believing that he will
fully deserted them over two years
ago At the time of the railroad acci-
dent Hughes owned extensive Cripple
Creek mining property worth 100000,
and he has just discovered that while
he was incarcerated the properties
have been disposed of by unknown par.

ALICE ROOSEVELT
ARRIVES IN SAN FRANCISCO FROM
YOKOHAMA, JAPAN.
TRIP BROKE ALL RECORDS
Sensational Stories Denied-Received
No Very Expensive Presents
To Make Rapid Trip
East

San Francisco.-The liner Siberia,
afternoon, established a new record
between this city and the Japanese
port, having made the trip in ten days,
ten hours and twenty-eight minutes.
The best previous time between this
port and Yokohama was made by the
Korea, u sister ship of the Siberia, in
ten days, eleven hours and five min
utes. Miss Roosevelt and the Harri-
man party were hurried across the bay
and left at once for the East by special
train. Miss Roosevelt denied that she
Ihad received expensive presents while
in the Orient and said that she had
done none of the remarkable things
credited to her by yellow journals.
The Siberia's time is sixteen hours
and twenty-eight minutes longer than
the transpacific record held by the Ca
madam Pacific's liner Empress of
China, plying between Yokohama and
Vancouver, B. c., but the Siberia cov-
( cred greater distance.
= There were many distinguished pas
sengers on the Siberia, among them
being Miss Alice Roosevelt, Senator
Warren of Wyoming, Representative
Longworth of Ohio, Brig. Gen. H. T..
Allen. chief of the Philippine constab-
ulary, Z. H. Hartman, president of the
Southern Pacific company; r. P.
Schwerin, vice president and general
manager of the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company; Miss Mabel Boardman and
Miss Amy Mcmillan of Washington, d.
n ha l,Y tynu in q n.
ions of Miss Roosevelt. M. Shoraishi.
vice president of the Toyo-kisen-kai-
sha Japanese steamship line, also came
over from the Orient.
Although it was expected that Miss
Roosevelt would spend a few days In
and around San Francisco, all the pre-
vious plans were changed during the
voyage and neither her party nor that
of Mr.. Hartman landed in this city at
all.
Instead they were transferred from
the Siberia to the tug Arab and taken
direct to the Oakland side of the bay.
They left there at $3.50 o'clock in the
afternoon for the East over the Central
route of the Southern Pacific, connect
ing with the Union Pacific and Chi
cago G Northwestern lines, via Chi
Ago, for their various homes. An at
1tempt is being made to beat all prev
ious records between Yokohama and
the big cities of the East.
"All the presents that / received
were merely inexpensive mementoes
of the trip, such as any girl travelling
in strange countries would receive
said the Presidents daughter. There
really was nothing so remarkable
. about my trip, and l cannot understand
Khy so much fuss was made about it.
Ihad an exceptionally fine time and en-
joyed every moment that l was away.
The only thing that l regret is that so
many nonsensical stories were circu-
lated regarding me-"
