following very satisfactory letter from
Mr.. Anneke Of the company, the same

Mr.. P. W Sture, Ely, Mimi.
Dear Sir-Replying to your favor Of
the 18th in regard to the hotel will
say that we have been very much pro-
yoked ourselves because Mr. Hunt has
been delaying matters and has not
yet got the plauS all flushed. We
were in hopes long ago 10 start in on
the foundation, and we can assure you
and the people OF Ely that just as
soon as the plans are finished we will
not delay matters one moment but
will get the figures OF tie contractors
as quickly as possible and will not
delay letting the contract.
Yours Truly.

NATURALIZATION PAPERS
Harder to Get After the New Law
Takes Effect After Sept. go.

This probably will be the last trip
of the District Court to the ranges
before the new law regarding the Sc
curing Of second papers takes effect.
The court will be here next Monday
evening and will convene at the city
hall for the purpose OF issuing final
papers to all deserving applicants.
That an alien must live at least five
years in the United States and file his
declaration OF intention at least two
years prior to getting his certificate
are the main features of the new law,
approved June 20 and which will be
operative Sept. 20. The new law is
different in almost every respect from
the old one and in general way is
said TO be much more strict.
The courts having exclusive iurIs-
diction to naturalize aliens are the
United States circuit and district
courts, the supreme court for the dis
trict of Columbia and the United
States courts for the Indian Territory
also all courts of record having IL seal
d clerk and Jurisdiction in actions in
which the amount in controversy is
unlimited.
The alien must declare his intention
at least two years prior to his admis-
sion and tile description of his person
and data Of his past life are much
more minute than was formerly re-
quired. The question of whether he
is disbeliever in or an opponent of
organized goyei nment or a member Of
any such organization. is specifically
mentioned and the applicant must
not be polygamist or believer in
polygamy.
The petition shall be verified by at
least two credible witnesses, who are
citizens Of the United States, who
shall be prepared to swear that they
have known the applicant to be resi-
dent of the United States for period
Of at least five years continuously and
Of the state, territory or district in
which the application is made for at
least one year preceding the time of
the application. He shall also file
with the clerk of the courts copy of
the certificate from the department
of commerce and labor stating the

are often more pleased at hearing other
people cry and stamp their feet in rage
and in seeing their eyes flash and their
fists clinched than in seeing them smile
and be happy. Beware, o man. how you
make the angry passions of some one else
to leap and blaze. Remember that you
cannot be true TO your loved ones if you
suffer their baser passions to assume the
sway.
In closing l would again read to you
my text: He that is slow to anger is
better than the mighty and he that ruleth
his spirit than he that taketh city,"
You sec. it is written in the present tense.

temper now Perhaps by laxity of past
training you have been guilty of this
sinful habit. viii YOU not now begin
Systematically to curb your evil temper
as a general lays out a campaign to cap
ture a city? You say you are not able to
do it in your own strength. THIS is true
but by the help of Jesus Christ you can
conquer. And let me encourage you by
reminding you that this temper is proof
of stored up energy, which. if by the help
or God you can bring under control will
fit you for useful service in his cause.
Are you not ready to say, o Master, take
my temper and rule 1t henceforth by thine
own loving power?

RELAsco's WONDERFUL MEMORY
How He Proved the Correctness of a
Disputed Quotation.

In a New York second hand book shop
last Monday afternoon two men who had
been looking over an odd volume of old
plays got into warm argument as to
the relative merits of old and new
dramas. One championed Congreve. Addi-
son. Sheridan, Goldsmith and Moliere
and the other pinned his faith to David
Belasco, A. w. Pinero, Maeterlink and
Henry Arthur Jones'
The argument went on until it became
furious. At last the man who held that
the old dranatists were the better, quot
ed something from John Addison which
the other ridiculed, insisting that the quo
tation was not correct.
How are you going to prove it?' asked
the man who had quoted the lines. The
bookseller says he has not at hand copy
of Addison's plays, or at least, that he
cannot find one

looking man, with iron-gray hair and
clean-cut features. attired with almost
clerical severity. 81 think | can give you
that quotation. 1t is in the first scene
of the first act of Cato and runs thus:

An UngovernabIe Temper.
The ungovernable temper is to be
dreaded and feared for second reason.
No sooner does a man lose his temper
than he drives from his side those who
would naturally come forward as his de-
tenders. He spikes the guns of those who
would be his protectors. All through the
world there is a desire to see fair play.
If when going down the street you see a
big boy whipping a small boy you natu-
rally take the small boys part And so
in this great wide world if the masses
of people see that you are being abused
they will take your side If you yourself
are willing and ready TO suffer in silence.
If you govern your tongue amid attacks
of Islander and injustice your re-enforce-
ments will come from friends in the most
unexpected places. When young Sir John
Fox Burgoyne was lieutenant colonel
of the Royal engineers fighting General
Jackson before the cotton bales of New
Orleans the English forces became de-
moralized. What were the English
troops to dor was the question The
commanding general called together a
council of war to decide whether to re-
new the attacks or to retreat to the
British gunboats Lieutenant Colonel
Burgoyne was one of the few officers who
earnestly pleaded for the renewal of the
attack. The council of war met in a
room where the supposed corpse of a
staff officer, Major Stovin by name was
lying upon a table covered over with a
sheet. The vast majority of officers
voted for retreat. Retreat it was. But
strange to say no sooner did the fleet
sail back to England than the English
papers began to attack Lieutenant Colonel
Burgoyne. They said he was the cause

But not only state that an ungovern-
able temper makes your enemies more
hateful and bitter than ever before. but
that an ugly temper reacts and strikes
hardest against those whom you ought

most despicable is for men and women

Bitter Words a Curse.

/ do not know the history of all your
homes. but | do know this: Some are
homes in which it Is absolutely impos-
sibe for peace and love to dwell Why ?
Because in some of your homes there
is Il father or mother or a sister or
brother who has never learned to CON
troll the temper No sooner does anything
so wrong in those homes than bitter
words come to the lips and sharp sayings
sting and lacerate, until life itself be-
comes a miserable burden to every one
around them God forgive you. my
brother my sister. if you have been one
of those who. on account of a vile tenn
per- become a curse to all about them.
What are the causes of an ungovern-
able temper? There are two. and both
are directly or indirectly for the most
part attributable to the parents of the
man or woman having the vile temper
Father and mother sometimes are toe
lenient with their children when they
raise them. They do. not make their
children obey. They do not teach them
that yes means yes and mo" means
mo" When their children begin to cry
or to pout or to sulk for something the
indulgent mothers and fathers say, ooh
well. go ahead and do il, if that will stop
your crying" The result is that many
children never learn to subject their wills
to higher will. Allowed to indulge in
fits of temper as babies. they are learning
how ito sulk as men. AS spoiled children
they kick and scream because they can
not have what they want, and as adults
they will lash themselves into fury when
they do not have what they want in the
home Or in the store. Solomon was right
when he said. Train up a child in the
way he should go. and when he is old
he shall not depart from it, A large per-
centage of ungoverable tempers can be
charged directly or indirectly against
wrong parental training. Teach your
children TO obey Teach them to recog-
nize other peoples rights. as other peo-
pie must respect their rights.
The next great cause of the ungoy-
ernable temper is the custom of teasing.

JOE'S LUCK
Drew a Prize in Matrimonial Lottery.

Before we were married my husband
was a coffee drinker and subject to severe
attacks of sick headache, which interfered

L had made up my mind that coffee
was at least partly to blame, and that l
could cure him after marriage by the use
of Postum Food Coffee.

it. she laughed and said, Just wait and

Joe will nave his coffee anyway
Il proceeded gradually, first eliminating
by degrees the pastry and. sweets from the
daily menu, and as his meals were always
daintily served and appetizing, he began

Meantime his headaches became less
frequent, but did not cease alt ogether.
When the time was ripe and | proposed
to use Postum Food Coffee, he consented
upon the promise that he should have the
old kind Of coffee at his Sunday breakfast.
He grew fond of the new food drink, now
ever, and noted that after drinking the old
coffee on Sundays he suffered from unsteady
nerves and a dull heavy feeling that he
never had on the days when he drank
Postum. The result was that at last he
said, L would rather have the Postum
Food Coffee Sunday morning, too, if you
don't mind, my dear. The old kind makes
me feel like a fool all day You may i'm

suggestion. The old kind of coffee Ia 3

NO CHANCE BEFORE 4 JURY.
Magistrate Believed Man With a Record
Innocent and Let Him Go.

Charles Harris, 81 years old, of II Riving-
ton street, was arraigned in the Essex
Market police our yesterday afternoon
charged with taking $27o and a diamond
pin from Charles H. Stockwell Of Troy,
n. Y, on a crowded Ninth avenue elevated
train at Cortlandt street one day several
weeks ago.
Stockwell said the theft occurred at about
10 O'Clock in the morning, and at that time
Harris said that he was with Detective
Sergeant Reilly at Sixth e and Four
tenth street, having just been released
at the jefferson Market police court, having
been locked up the night before as a sus-
pect. In this statement he was c~orroborated
by Reilly.
The complainant then said the hour
might have been later, and asked that
the prisoner be sent to trial by jury.
Magistrate Walsh refused and dismissed
the case against Harris, saying:
-This man has a criminal record, and a
man with a criminal record hasn't one
chance out of a million before a jury. I
believe HISTORY am going to discharge
him"
