and then we suffer from grip, catarrh, con-

DR.. X. v. Pierce, chief consulting physi-
clan to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical
Institute, at Buffalo N. ", says: "There
would be no grip epidemics, the germs of
consumption, or malaria would find no
place in the human economy, If the blood
were pure, if the lungs, heart and other
organs were fed on geod blood. Poisons
should not be allowed to accumulate in the

Chairman shonts Guest of Honor.

Theodore Shonts, chairman of the Panama
canal commission, was the guest of honor
at the annual meeting of the Pennsylvania
Society at New York last night. Mr. Shonts
was born in Pennsylvania. Mr. Shonts, in
an address, said:
Il believe that the task. which the United
States has undertaken in constructing the
Panama canal is the greatest individual
task in the way of construction in the his
tory of the United States, If not in the
world If we can faithfully and intelli-
gently spend the money which the people
Of the United States have contributed in
the construction Of a canal which will be
satisfactory to all I believe that the people
of this country won't mind just what the
cost of it may be or what time may be re-
qured in its construction.
1T will take some time before we arrive
at a conclusion as to what type of canal
will be constructed. This matter will be
decided in the course of time. What the
people of this country want is an honest
return for the money which is to be ex-
pended, and that Is what we propose to
give them

THE EQUITABLE LIFE.
Agents Endorsed Alexander and De-
mand a Legislative INQUIRY.

After session at the Hotel SAVOY in
New York yesterday, lasting nearly
six hours, aside from short recesses the
200 odd managing agents of the Equitable
Life Assurance Society from all over the
United States, adopted resolutions late this
afternoon, asking the New York state legis-
lature to exercise its plenary power by en-
acting an amendment to the society's char
ter" this amendment to give the policy
holders admission to the directorate OF the
society.
The resolutions also provided that com
mittee. consisting of one manager for every
together with all the managers in New
Higgins and Superintendent of Insurance
Hendricks. and secure their assistance in
getting the legislature to act in the matter
This committee, representing the whole
country, will be designated before the
agents finally adjourn.
Yesterdays sessions were replete with de-
velopments. Several sets of resolutions were
adopted. President Alexander made a brief
speech Vice President Hyde followed him.
and in the course of his remarks referred to
the sale by Second Vice President Tarbell
of the latter's interests in the renewal ac-
count to the company, which brought forth
a sharp retort from Mr. Tarbell. Then all
three officers left the meeting, and the
agents devoted their time to discussion be-
hind closed doors. The agents adjourned to
meet again today.

Will Not Risk All in One Big Battle.

Vfscount Hayashi, Japanese minister to
Great Britain, expressed the opinion in
London yesterday that Admiral Togo would
not give battle to Admiral Rojestvensky
with his entire squadron, but would con-
tinue the cautious tactics which charac-
terized his attacks on the Port Arthur
SQUADRON, not because he feared defeat but
owing to his desire to inf1ict the greatest
amount of damage on the Russians with
the least loss to himself
While confident of Admiral Togo's ability
to accomplish the total destruction of the
Russian squadron in a big battle. there is
the danger of Togo losing one or two of
his big ships. Therefore, Viscount Haya-
shi believes Togo will employ his torpedo
boats and torpedo-boat destroyers, which
number more than a hundred and are vast
ly superior to the Russian torpedo-boat flo
tilla, in harassng the Russians while grad
ually picking off the Russian warships. He
said the coasts of Japan, Korea and For
mosa lend themselves to night work with
torpedo boats, while the narrow channels
will make maneuvering of large warshfps
difficult and dangerous.

Togo to Wait Off Nagasaki.

Russia's naval attache at Paris, Captain
yenantchine, in an interview there, de-
clares his belief that the strategic situation
will lead Admiral Togo to await Admiral
Roiestvensky off Nagasaki, Japan. where
Togo will have base to repair his damaged
Ships This, Captain Yepantchine added, is
important, owing to the japanese not hav-
Ing reserve vessels.
The captain further said that Togo's
strength represents seven battleships
against Rojestvenskys FIVE. The gun
power of the squadrons, he asserted, is
practically the same. Togo's heavy guns
dismounted for use at the siege of Port
Arthur have been replaced by new guns
of English and American make.
Captain Yepantchine also declared that
Rojestvensky's long voyage and daring en-
trance into the waters of the Japanese con-
stitute an achievement without historical
precedent.

Bell viii Head castro's Army.

A dispatch from Denver says that Sher-
man NJ. Bell, former adjutant general of
Colorado, is seriously considering an offer
to be commander-in-chief of the entire
army of Venezuela. A large salary and al
most arbitrary power goes with the job,
and Bell says he is very much tempted to
take the offer and make men of those
greasers." He adds:
"If I go down there half measures in any
thing will not go with me- will fix that
little army up SO that it cannot only take
care of its own country, but also do a little
business in trouble outside. l could get a
hundred of the best men in this country to
go down with me, and there would be more
in it than mere commander Of the army in
a short time
welt, but believes If he goes to Venezuela he
will have to go against q United States
army before long.

dispatch from Seattle says Capt. A. H.
Latin, said to be the Oldest sailing officer
in the national quartermaster service. has
been reinstated to his old position. that of
commander of the cable ship Burnside, by
President Rockwell. The order was the
result of thorough examination by the

duty last Jan,Sery. This suspension was due
to a serious accident that befell the Burn

which time she ran on rock. necessitating
So, 600 worth of repair. Capt Latin was

The early mornings and afternoons. after
the sun has sunk behind the mountains,
have been cold. Storms have been numer-
Gus in the vicinity of the camp and farther
up the mountains it has showed heavily.
The thought of starting home apparently
has not entered the Presidents head. He
says he intends to enjoy himself as much

panionS believe he is doing it,
If he has thoughts of affairs at Washing

Washington, are not new at the sport and
are ready for any work the President cuts
out for them. The courier says that DR..

Rides a Strong, Safe Horse.

The big white horse which the President
rode out of New Castle on Saturday is his
favorite of the three that were taken along
for his personal use. 1t is not fast but it
is strong, and the trail is never so stony
but the President and his steed cover it, If
any horse can get through.
Jake Borah, known as the most intrepid
hunter i'll the Rockies and the man who
will take the most desperate ride after the
dogs, admits that even a mountain guide
of many years experience has many things
to learn about riding. He says he can
teach the President nothing.
A huge pair of leather breeches has been
added to the Presidents hunting costume.
When he left New Castle on Saturday he
wore heavy canvas trousers without leg
gings. The flap was taken out of the baggy
pants by binding them about his ankles
with coarse Irvine. Now he has adopted the
leather breeches, as he has found that they
better turn the wind while on hard drive.

COLORED HIGH SCHOOLS
COMPLIMENT PAID BY NOTED
FRENCH WRITER.
Local Institutions Highly Praised by
Able Felix Klein-Translated
From French.

Some observations of the local colored
high schools, translated from the French
book, Land of the Strenuous by Able
Felix Klein, which are quite complimentary,
we're recently submitted to The Star by
Prof. Kelly Miller of Howard University.
The translation follows:
MIR. Harris did not allow me to take
leave of him and the bureau of education
until lie had provided me with an official
letter, which would have the effect of per-
mitting me to visit and inspect, at leasure,
all institutions Of public instruction. The
first use I made of this letter was that of
gaining an entrance to a certain public
high school right in Washington.
In this city there are four of these, not
counting commercial school known as the
Business High School. OF the four it
seemed to me that the most interesting one
of them all. for my purpose would be the NJ
Street High School, which is attended by
none but blacks.
1.-The regulation of this school and its
curriculum are exactly the same as those
of the other high schools, and the pupils
are of special interest.
Il arrived one morning al about 10 O'Clock.
at the 'Colored High School, / rang the
door bell several times There was no re-
Spouse. Nothing was left to me but to try
opening the door; and found that here, as
usual in America, everything was open.
But, while all was open, in such wise that
through doors and windows one could see
full classes at their work, there seemed to
be no one free, to whom 1 might speak. /
returned to the entrance and again pressed
the button, but in vain. Fortunately now
discovered before stairway this sign:
office of the Principal on the second
floor
4 went up, and seeing a negresse,' still
young and of an intelligent face, seated al
large writing desk | addressed
myself to her and explained the object of
my visit, showing her the letter from Mr..
Harris and asked if 1 might the princi-
pal. am the principal she said; and she
showed me schedule of studies, answered
all my questions and very graciously placed
herself at my service in respect to anything
and everything relating to the school in
which L might feel interest.
THE school contains $50 pupils, from
fourteen to eighteen years of age, of whom
1870 are boys and 400 girls.
