the effect that the Kiowa-Camonche

the time expected by all and that the
communication act under the homestead
laws will be in full force and allow
q prospective purchaser the right to
prove up on the land after fourteen
months settlement by paying the de-
ferred payments. The plans OF auc-

REST THAT RESTS.

Rest means rest.
"Cut out" worrying.
Rest with capital r.
Few persons know how to rest.
Rushing for trains and boats isn't
resting.
Being elbowed by vulgar mob isn't
resting.
Neither is staying home and being
annoyed by endless details.
Overdressing, overeatlng and too
much excitement are not restful.
Over Sunday rest is best accom-
plished by trip to some restful place.
The idea is to discover what best
agrees with one and then to follow Il
as well as possible.

Chicago, Aug. 6.-For the first time
in the history Of Illinois all the prl-
maries of all the parties were held On
the same day and The voters were
given an opportunity to express their
preferences through their ballots for
candidates from United States senator
down to sheriff. The new primary
law passed by special session of the
Legislature last spring was given its
first trial and gave general satisfac-
ton. In the tempestuous districts OF
Chicago the vote was large, but in the
districts where there were made no
local contests apathy was manifested
by the voters and in these sections
the vote was so light that 1t pulled
down the total for the city to slight
ly over 100000 out Of a total registra-
ton of $4,000.

Cartagena, Spain, Aug. IA terri
BILE marine disaster occurred Saturday
evening off Cape Palos. The Italian
steamship Sirio, from Genoa for Bar
celona, Gadiz, Montevideo and Beu-
nos Ayres, with about 800 persons on
board, was wrecked of Hormigas Is
land.
Three hundred emigrants, most of
them Italians and Spaniards, were
drowned
The captain Of the steamer commit.
ted suicide.
The bishop of San Pedro, Brazil, also
was lest and it is reported that another
bishop is among the missing.
The remainder of the passengers and
the officers and crew got away in the
ships boats and were rescued by
means of boats sent to them from the
shore.
A number of fishermen who made
attempts at rescue were drowned,
Those rescued from the vessel were
Sunday night at Cape Palos in a pit
liable condition, being without food
or clothing.
The Sirio struck rocky reef, known
as Bajos Hormigas and sank soon after
stern first. Hormigas Island lies about
two and a half miles to the eastward
of Cape Palos.
Before he committed suicide the
captain declared the steamer had 645
passengers on board and that her
crew numbered 127 men. The Sirio
had 50 passengers when leaving &C.
noa, but additional Spanish passen-
gers were taken on board at BARGE
Iona, where the vessel touched few
hours before the disaster.
The disaster occurred at 5 o'clock
Saturday afternoon. The steamer
was threading difficult passage
through the Hormigas group, where
the Baios Hormigas reef is n cnntin-
ual menace to navigation. The YES
sci began to settle Immediately after
she had struck, and a terrible scene
of confusion and panic ensued on
board The fishermen along the coast
sought to render every assistance in
their power and sent out boats
which brought many survivors
ashore. Most of the officers and crew
of the Sirio are among the saved.
The survivors have gone into camp
on the main square of the town at
Cape Pales. Here narrowing scenes
are enacted as the stricken families
anxiously seek beloved members
among the rescued.
The condition Of the survivors is
most deplorable. They have lost ev-
erything and are without money,
food or clothing. The maritime au-
thorities of Cartagena have dis
patched a tug to the scene carrying
relief supplies. The buildings Of a
circus and the poor house are being
used as temporary quarters for the
survivors.

he WILL KEEP HIS WORD.
President Roosevelt Will Under No
circumstances Accept Third Trim.
Charles Emory Smith So States Al
ter Visit to Sycamore Hill,
where Conference Was Held.

Washington, Aug. 3.-"President
Roosevelt will not run again. He has
passed his word to his countrymen
and will keep 1t. He Is opposed on
principle to a third term, and he con-
ceives that for him to be candidate
would violate that principle The abb
solute exclusion of President Roose-
welt by his own unalterable decision
will make the utmost care in tho
selection Of our candidate necessary"
This assertion, made deliberately
by Charles Emory Smith, the we'll
known Philadelphia editor, following
an all-day luncheon and conference
with President Roosevelt at Oyster
Bay, is the most significant thing that
has emanated from the presidents
summer home since there has been
talk Of a third term for President
Roosevelt. Mr.. Smith was long a
member Of the cabinet of President
Mckinley. He has been the close per.
sonal friend and adviser of President
Roosevelt. He went to Oyster Bay to
talk over political conditions in his
state and in the nation with the pres.
dent, at the presidents invitation
Following SO close upon the state
mont from Peoria, ILL.,, that the pres
idcnt had written q personal Letter to
o friend there, announcing his deter.
mination not to permit the use of his
name before the next national repub-
lican convention, it looks very much
as though there could be no longer
any question as to the eventual atti-
tude Of the president.
