IT IS now definitely known that
Eugene V. Debbs, former social demo-
cratic candidate for president and origin
ator OF the strike against the Pullman
Company, is organizing the Industrial
Union in opposition to the American
Federation of Labor. The socialists have
largely abandoned the idea oil May Day
Parades, preferring the more effective
work of mass-meetings and phsmphlets.
Butitis proposed TO hold May Day demon
STATIONS in connection with meetings at
Carnegie Hall and Cooper Union, New
York, today. The principal speaker will
be Benjamin Hanford, socialistic candid
ate for vicepresident on the ticket with
Eugene Debts. The socialists have for
long time been watching for an oppor-
tunlty 10 spouse labor issues.

MONDAY EVENING, MAY 1. 1905.

The LARGE gathering OF Alexandra
ans At the Washington.Sonthern Rail
way depot in this city this afternoon
when the remains of the late General
Fltzhugh Lee passed through, together
with the tolling of the bells, was fitting
tribute to a noble Virginian. About
seven years ago a crowd equally as large
assembled at the same place to tender
him an ovation when he, as Consul
General to Havana, was on his way to
Washington few weeks before the out
break of the Spanish war At that time
the eyes of the civilized world were
turned upon General Lee from the fact
that he occupied a position OF RESPONSE
bility fraught with mOmentous results.
Today the gathering gszed upon his
funeral train, the locomotive clad in the
habiliments of mourning and the bell
unified. In the forward car q cata-
faloue upon which rested the remains OF
the late General was all that was to be
seen to remind his friends of the genial
soul who had previously stood in the
rear car Of the train bowling to his many
acquaintance. The battles of life, now
over, he sleeps well, but his star is not
destined to set with his death. He may
not be the alpha of the constellation Vir-
ginia. but he will nevertheless remain a
fixed orb of no small magnitude.

Rest Cough Medicine for Children.

When you buy cough medicine for
small children you want one in which
you can place implicit confidence. You
want one that not only relieves but cures.
You want one that is unquestiOnably
harmless. You want one that is pleas
ant to take. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy meets all OF these conditions.
There is nothing so good for the coughs
and colds incident to childhood 1t is
also certain preventive and cure for

MINISTER BOWEN ms Doeu suhniOhV"
from Venezuela to Washington by cable
I, explain his chargesagainst Francis q.
Loomis, acting Secretary of State, and
to defend himself against charges pre-
ferred by LOOMS, of having caused the
publication of the story that LOOMS,
when at Caracas, had accepted $40, 900
from the asphalt trust. The develop
ments in the situation have reached the
stage where Bowen must either prove
his assertions against the Assistant Secre-
tary of State or leave the diplomatic ser
vice. LOOMS has demanded that he be
confronted with Bowen, and it is in re-
Spouse to this that the latter has been re-
called. He is not to return to Venezue-
1t, for, whatever may be the outcome OF
the investigation, it is realized that his
DAYS of usefulness there are over. In
the cable message sent to Bowen Satur-
day Secretary Taft informed him of the
reasons why his presence is demanded in
Washington. He has been informed
that the first reason is his filing OF
charges against Assistant Secretary
LOOMS then there is the charge by Mr.
Loomis that Bowen caused the publica-
ton of these charges, to which are added
Mr.. LOOMS emphatic and sweeping de-
NAL and his demand that he be confront
cd with his accuser. In making known
the contents of this cablegram Secretary
TAFT Saturday, for the first time, made
official announcement of the fact that
Bowen had filed charges against Mr..
LOOMS. 1t was at first supposed that
the accusations came from President
Castro, inasmuch as Castro's representa-
tive, when IN Washington, declared that
Loomis had been in the pay of the as
phalt trust. As result of the charges
and counter-charges, which have caused
the greatest diplomatic scandal that has
ever involved the State Department,
there is to be a thorough examination
of the asphalt trusts connection with
diplomatic affairs in Venezuela. Ample
ground has existed for suspicion that
the United States has been acting az q
ca's-paw for the trust in all recent ne
gOtiations with the Venezuelan govern.
ment, and that the friction between the
two countries has been due to the activ-
ity of trust agents. While Mr.. Loomis
may not have been in the pay of the
trust, the State Departments activity
in behalf of that organization has been
peculiar, to say the least, and threaten
ed, for a time, to involve the country in
war. Knowledge of the trusts methods
in this country cOnvinces every one in
terested in the matter that, il the I'M
scrupulOussuse of money would avail to
strengthen the cause of the trust in any
quarter, the money would Immediately
be forthcoming. 1t is regarded as strange,
therefore, while Loomis and Bowen are
now engaged in piling up charges
against each other, they should both
have been so active in behalf of trust
interests as to cause general public won
der and to force Secretary Taft to inter-
vene in order to prevent the severance of
diplomatic relations between this coun-
try and Venezuela.

Notwithstanding its many draw
backs there is a charm about the
Nevada desert which is almost ire
sistible. The atmosphere is clear
and pure, and although the heat and
metallic glare OF the day are at times
almost unbearable, its cool nights are
refreshing and i%nvigorating; its u
rises are gorgeous, and its sunsets
indescribable, especially in this part
of 1t. Slowly the deserts are being
reclaimed. Railroads have been
built across them and still many
Others are building. Vast areas are
coming under cultivation by means Of
irrigation, and the springing up of
prosperous mining camps will do
much to rob the desert Of its terrors,
both real and imaginary. All this
radical change is due to mining. The
possibility of finding mines at first
induces the prospector with his burro
to penetrate the vast wilderness,
The development and operation Of
the veins he finds, gives employment
to thousands Of men, and cities spring
into existence as a natural conse.
quence, as they are doing in this sec
tion of the universe.

Accidental Discoveries Of cold.

Most of the great goldfelds have
been discovered entirely through ac-
cident. The romances connected
with their discovery have been
brought to mind by the story which
comes from England, of the young
man on his way home from New Yea
land, with a fortune which came to
him by accident. He is the son Of a
~billposter who found his way to New
Zealand and worked in the mines.
One day, while standing on the edge
OF a creek, he picked up a stone to
throw at a bird, A glance at the
missile showed him that it was gold.
The stone proved to be the clew to a
rich mine, of which the young man
sold his share for 1915, 900,

the mining exhibits at the Worlds
Fair was a nugget worth SO, 200. A
woman had picked it up to throw at

weight she thought better of it and
took it home. Another romantic

Indian in pursuit Of an antelope was

Furnishing "a Home.


furnishing a home or an apart
ment is a matter for very serious
consideration for those obliged to do
40 on a limited expenditure.
The first thing is to calculate ex-
sctly what some one has to spend,
then make a list of the most neces-
sary articles required and buy the
very best of these that one can at
ford.
Don't make the mistake of being
carried away unless sure they will
quite fiji the place of things you had
planned.
Two very good axioms laid down by
4 practical writer on the subject are:
BE determined to be content with
what you a afford and equally de-
rermined to get the best and prettiest
things you can for your money,
It is far wiser for a young married
eoupIe who have only a limited sup
ply Of this worlds goods to furnish
only the rooms they actually require
for the time being. such as dining
room or sitting room, kitchen and
their W bedroom.
The owners should have in mind
some general idea of the styles with
which they wish ultimately to sur
round themselves.
Sensible people will not expect to
begin where their parents left off.
Simplicity in form is most desir-
able. The wooden chair backs that
are elaborate in design harbor dirt,
and where a chair is made of a good
quality of wood, it requires no
decoration to make it ornamental.
One feature that should not be
overlooked in buying furniture is its
durability. Spindle legged chairs are
not advisable for those who cannot
afford to replace them with ease.
The greatest ARE ought to be talk
en- to secure harmony or judiclous
contrast in the color scheme Of home
decoration.
II should be remembered that the
color scheme of an apartment Or
home may be divided into four or
five chief divisions or quantities. One
must consider the ceilings, the walls
the floor covering, the drapery, the
furniture covering, and perhaps the
wood or material of the furniture
itself. Every of these will have
some effect upon the others and
therefore should bear some relation
10 them.
The aspect of a room should also
have a great influence upon its furn-
ishing. That is to say, after personal
comfort has been provided for, in ?
room where the sun rarely shines and
there is "A cold aspect, II Is folly 70

tlnts, and equally foolish to furnish

with regard 10 such things as pie
