wYLE's ISLAND STATUE.
Antique Specimen of Sculpture in
Wiltshire, Eng, That Has
Hazy History.

English people cling to their tradi-
lions and antiquities long after they
have ceased TO possess any definite in
terest. One of the curios OF Wiltshire
Is a statue in the middle OF a river at
WYE, says the New York Herald. Upon
a pedestal zeal a bridge is a statue of
the conductor of a coach blowing upon
his horn. The statue bears every mark
of antiquity; indeed, 1t is so old that
no one knows just exactly what 1t is
intended TO commemorate, although
there is an unverified legend that it is
intended to keep in mind the memory
of some accident occurring at that point.
According to some. the bridge was
wrecked and many were saved through
the brave efforts of the conductor, while
according to other accounts the bridge
went down in a flood and all were lost in
the angry waters. No matter what the
original intention was, it possesses a
modern interest as being the only
statue erected in the middle of a river,
and as such is regarded with more than
local interest. Several times it has
been found necessary to make repairs
to the pedestal, and the money has been
ch%eerfully provided, the town realizing
the value of this relic of the past.

MEN USE UMBRELLAS
The once Popular Rain Chute Is Be-
coming as Obsolete as the
Rubber Overshoe.

81 believe the use of umbrellas by
men is largely being discontinued, =
said the dealer, according to the Mil
waukee Sentinel. There was a time
when every man had an umbrella, and
was absolutely dependent upon 1t in
the event of a storm, but from obser-
vations | have been making for my
own satisfaction, | am convinced that
in a few years the mai with an UNI
brella will be the exception, and not
the rule.
THE umbrella will become rs obso-
lete as the rubber overshoe is to-day.
Not many years ago shoes with soles
as heavy as those on the finest foot
wear of the present period would have
been thought fit only for an outdoor
laborer. Men wore dainty shoes then,
and used rubbers when it rained. Now
they wear the heavy shoes. finding
them comfortable in fair weather. nee
essary in wet.
1.-The %cravanette raincoat will as
surely put the umbrella ON the shelf.
1t is light and comfortable. stylish in
appearance, and can be carried with
as little inconvenience as an umbrella
or cane Then there is no trouble
about managing it in a wind storm.
But when "a man has struggled
through a small-sized hurricane with
an umbrella. he is about ready to
throw it away and take his chances
with the elements"

A patient at a metropolitan hospital

given something to drink out Of a bot
tie. The drinking, according to an

three times a day, and the Ger emony
must have some reference to meals.
The draught, to be efficient, n.ust be
colored. 1t must have a marked odor.
SO that he may invite his friends to
smell it. 1t should be loathsome to the

WHAT JAPAN
WILL DEMAND
Baron KOmura Visits Roosevelt
at Oyster Bay-Peace Con-
ference August 5.
WILL HAVE NO DELAY.

BAY, n. L., July IL
Whether there is to be peace in thr
far east or a continuance of the wal
will be practically decided ut the first
business meeting of the Washington
conference, which will convene at the
navy yard, Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. ..
Baron Komura will on that occasion
communicate to M. White the essen
tials of Japan's peace terms for fur
Their negotiations.
This, it is declared, will not be done
In a spirit of defiance. Indeed, there
are many evidences in the possession
of the neutral governments that Japan
is coming to the Washington confer
ence not imbued with a desire to hui
initiate Russia. but only to a terms
which will insure a lasting peace in
the far east, and which will in a meas
ure compensate Japan for the financial
losses in the present conflict.
Throughout the preliminary ncgotia-
tions, however, Japan has made it
clear al Washington that she wished
to avoid unnecessary tedious negotia-
tons. I'VE are not going to the con-
ference to write into the law of ma
lions a new chapter said a high Japa-
nese official recently.
For this reason the japanese pleni-
~potentiaries will adopt the programme
Of at once laying on the conference
table those terms. the acceptance OF
which withouts modification they are
Instructed to insist upon as a basis for
further negotiations.
1t is known that Japan will demand
an indemnity that will approximately
cover the cost of the war to date. This
was communicated to Russia early in
the preliminary Negotiations. The
amount is still d secret, but is based
upon the most careful estimates of the
cost of the war and will be accompa-
MED by a more or less detailed state
ment showing the method by which
the final figures We're computed. 1t
will not fall far short Of a billion dol
lars. Besides the Indemnity, Japan's
other essentials to- the continuance of
the negotiations are the cession TO
Japan of Sakhalin, of the L~iautong
peninsula and of the railway as far
as Hardin. the recognition of Janan's
predominating influence in Korea and
the return of Manchuria to China.
Europe believes Japan will demand
the naturalization Of yladivostok. The
Washington government does not
share in this belief. Indeed. in official
circles the statement is made without
hesitation that such a demand would
not be moderate or reasonable
and it is known that Russia will not
permit the subject of V~ladivostok to
come before the conference.
Baron Komura and Minister Taxa.
hira. the Japanese plenipotentiaries
made an informal visit to President
Roosevelt today. Mr.. Takahlra visited
the president yesterday at Oyster Bay
to officially notify him of the arriva
of his colleague in the negotiations
with Russia for peace and was invited
to return with him today. Only the
two principals of the delegation were
present at the interview, the Other
members of the suit remaining in New
