Prick TO ENTER POLITICS.
rus Friends Also Say lie Declined to De
Secretary OF the Treasury.

PI1TsBURo, April o.-The announcement
was made here to-day by those close to
h. C. Prick that he has decided 10 enter
national politics not later than 1908 and that
he will enter the field from New York in
stead OF from Pennsylvania, where he made
his many millions.
MIR. Tricks friends say that he refused
the position Of Secretary Of the Treasury
rendered him by Mr.. Roosevelt after the
last election. The Ph,s uro Leader, which
Is closer to Mr.. Prick than any other Pitts
burg pape-, to-day runs an article which
might have been inspired. After announc-
ing that Mr.. Frck is booked to enter national
politics from New York the Leader says;
-Whilo II Is known to only few Of his
intimate friends yet II is fact that Mr.
Fnok had strong pressure brought to bear
on him TO take the portfolio Of the Treas
ury in the Cabinet Of President Roosevelt,
and among those who were most insistent
that he should accept was the President
himself. Roosevelt and Friok have long
been close personal friends and Mr.. Prick
was one Of the most effective supporters
Mr.. Roosevelt had in the last campaign.
Knox, the friend Of Prick, left the Cabl-
net to go to the Senate and Prick got a
pressing invitation to enter II as Secretary
Of the Treasury at the beginning Of the
Presidents new term. He declined, and
even after his declination he was urged to
take the place, but the time had not come
for him to go openly into national politics
or statecraft. But now that he intends
to spend a good deal Of his time in New
York he will probably play a larger part
in the affairs Of the nation

TIE VERY OLDEST VESSEL.
Built in Philadelphia in 1764 and
Probably Still in Service
in England.

Speaking of the life of ships the
other day, George F. Sproule, secretary
Of the board Of port wardens. said
about the oldest vessel he knows of is
the True Love, which if she is afloat
today is 149 years old, says the Phil
adelphia Record.
The True Love was built in this CITY
In 1854, and though she was only SO
feet and eight inches long, and of rs
feet beam, she was the largest ship
that had been in these waters up to
that time. She sailed from this port
In 1765, and did not return until 1878,
when she was 100 years old. She came
In with load Of cryolite from Ivigtut,
Greenland. Then she sailed again and
was no longer heard of until discovered
In 1899 in the Thames river, England,
where shorn of her glory, she was and
possibly still is doing service as a coal
barge.
There was proposal among ship
ping men here to purchase her and
bring her over as a relic of bygone
days and honest workmanship, but it
never came to anything.

kings woods where the game did
most abound" as fraebooters and

Albert Rankin Clark, in Recreation,
archery has never flourished in mod

played when the bow held the SUI
premacy among weapons Of warfare,
but it has yet, and always will have.
