SAILORS SNUG HARBoR.
A Personal Letter from Capt. Charles M.
HaVener.


Havener.
In renewing his subscription to The
Journal Captain Charles NJ. Havener
writes from the Sailors Snug Harbor,
New Brighton, Staten Island, n. Y,
under date of Nov. 5th: 81 have just
returned from a months vacation in
the east, and l feel entirely lost with
out being in touch with the dear old
town where my childhood and part of
my earlier manhood days were spent,
and as | have no correspondent there
now l know of no better way than
through the weekly medium of the
good old journal" Things remain
about the same here, as usual. About
the same number monthly pass in the
west gate, and others pass out the south
gate, to their last resting place on the
hill, best known among us old inmates
as Monkey Hill" How the name
originated / do not know, but it was
long before became an inmate here.
II am still in my old place as hospital
storekeeper NOW IL years. and seem
to be holding the job down to the salts
faction Of the ones higher up, as | have
never as yet had word of fault found
in the shape of provisions, etc, having
to cater daily to an average of about
go people in everything but meats, fish
and vegetables.
A large amount of work is going on
at present. Our memorial church, that
was partially destroyed by fire last
Christmas, is being put in shape again
1t was in litigation with the fire insur-
ance companies all summer, but was
finally settled, as l understand, with
about s115,0 loss. 1t will take all
winter to make the repairs. The out
side is nearly completed.
The insurance companies have re
fused to place more insurance on the
buildings until a new electric system is
put III, at a cost of from 500 900 to $780,
GOO, and some 30 or 10 electricians are
now at work and Will be employed all
winter. Then they are building a new
annex to the hospital for an operating
room, etc, at cost of about S15. 900, SO
they are laying out lot of money this
year; but as | learned from good author
| ity our income is 50, 500, 000 per year, and
| last year the expenses were about 81,
500,0 900, they have quite IA surplus to
work on.

and music hall and also the marble

Neptune in the centre The church is
of marble, the front and columns of

DR.. KENNEDY'S

REMEDY
Breaks no Hearts, Excuses
no Crimes.

DR.. David Kennedy's FAVORITE REM
EDY is not disguised enemy of the human
race; where it cannot help, it does not
harm. 1t is composed of vegetable ingre-
dents and does not heat or infame the
blood but cools and purifes it. In all cases
of Kidney troubles Liver complaints, Con-
stipation of The Bowels, and the delicate
arrangements which aff1ict women, the ac-
ton of DR.. Kennedy's FAVORITE REM
EDY is beyond praise. Thousands of
grateful people voluntarily testify to this,
in letters to DR.. Kennedy; and with
warmth and fullness of words which mere
business certificates never possess. It
makes no drunkards-excusesn no crimes
breaks no hearts. In its coming there is
hope, and in its wings there is healing.

the result. Your druggist has it. ONE

November in the Country.

Almost everybody who goes into the
woods, or indeed anywhere else, in No
vember, carries a gun. cartridges are
a certainty, deer and bear are always
possible, and rumors of wildcats, loup-
cerviers, and Canada lynxes are suf-
ficiently rife to thrill the blood of chill
dren and timid persons when they pass
through a patch of woods after dark.
A foreigner might imagine that the
country was in state of instruction,
for in almost every wagon that you
meet a shotgun or a rifle is apparent.
The rural mail-carrier brings back more
cartridges than letters; the lawyer, on
his way home from court, stands up in
his buggy and shoots plump bird with
out disconcerting his well-trained steed;
two or three shotguns may often be
seen outside the door of the district
schoolhouse, resting against the. wall,
while their youthful owners are inside,
undergoing instruction in more peace

master think if his lads of twelve and
fourteen came armed to school!-H. c..

NEW YORK 100 YEARS HENCE.

A statistician who has thought long

the ratio Of increase in the last half
century. The present population Of the

gested to most uncomfortable degree
with only 100000 Of inhabitants. With
Is 900, 900 the congestion would be In.
tolerable unless there were great ex-
pansion Of the city's limits. Long be-
for the beginning of the next century
1t is probable that the massing of im-
mense numbers Of persons in cities will
be abandoned for economic and sant-
tary reasons Perhaps man will have
become wise enough by that time to
revert to the normal condition OF life
which prevailed before the rush to the
cities began in the nineteenth century.

Fred Carr OF Des Moines sent q
commission OF $40 to Frank p. Clark

bet was promptly covered, and Ida
Grove supporters are clamoring for
more.
This is one Of the things that are

that he lost or won the money of his

OUTSIDE POINT OF VIEW

The November elections OF 1905 may
well be termed renewed Declara-
ton OF Independence on the part Of
the people Of the United States.
Opinions may differ concerning the
mediate and local causes that pro-
duced such startling results, but none
can successfully dispute the PROPOSE
ton, that never before in one day have
the people asserted their independence
in casting their ballots to the extent
they did on Tuesday, Nov. 9TH, 1906.
Party lines were completely ignored
in Pennsylvania New York, Massa-
chusetts and Ohio. In these states not
only were individuals found working
hand in hand with those OF opposite
political faith, but leaders Of all the
great political parties openly advised
their followers to support and vote for
principles involved rather than for
men named Fly their particular politi-
cal party. We can well believe the
reported statement that Roosevelt and
his cabinet are pleased with the re-
suits"

Unless early and correct treatments
applied the patient seldom survives
when once the disease is fastened upon
her. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is the most efficient treat
ment for kidney troubles of women,
and is the only medicine especially
prepared for this purpose.
When a woman is troubled with pain
or weight in loins, backache, frequent,
painful or scalding urination, swelling
of limbs or feet, swelling under the
eyes, an uneasy, tired feeling in the
region of the kidneys ornotices a brick
dust sediment in the urine, she should
lose no time in commencing treatment
with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, as it may be the means OF
saving her life.
For proof, read what Lydia =. Pink

HORSE TRADING PREACHERS.

has a direct bearing on the rights and
privileges Of the clergy. Hereafter
when minister gets the best Of a
horse trade he does it at his peril. In
effect he can't preach and do we'll in a
horse dicker at the same time. The
decision practically divorces preaching
and swapping horses. It all came
about thru q horse trade conducted, it
would appear with considerable sagac-
ity. by Rev. Kesler of the Reformed
church at Hull, as party Of the first
part and parishioner who knew less
about horses. The pastoral relations
of the minister and his congregation
were dissolved by action Of the con-
gregation, but the pastor continued to
occupy the parsonage, and likewise de-
manded the pastors salary. To this
the church excepted and asked his
eviction which has been granted by
the courts.
The case marks reform. Time was
