BIG STEAMER ASHORE
THE P. J. THIsTLEwOOD BLOWN ON
 THE BEACH.
Tugs Leave Pensacola to Assist the Vesscl-One of New Line Between New Orleans
 and TemUa.

Pensacola, Fla, Jan. 3.-(Special)- The big coast steamer P. J. Thistle wood for Tampa from New Orleans, is on the Gulf beach twenty miles east of Pensacola bar, where she was blown this morning by the gale.
 The vessel Is reported in dangerous condition. But little information could be obtained tonight regarding her.
 Tugs left here at once to go to her assistance. stopping at the life-saving station to take on board the life-sav- ing crews there in order that the crew might be rescued with less danger.
 The report reached here by parties who said the vessel went ashore during a gale blowing fifty miles an hour. and who reported the matter at the quar- antine station, the report being for- warded later to Pensacola with a re- quest that tugs be sent to the point It Is not expected that much work can be done on the vessel tonight even though she Is not too badly injured to be floated, and all that is expected is that the life-saving crew may get the crew from the steamer
 The Thistlewood Is one of the ves- sells of the new line of steamers run ming between New Orleans and Tampa. and Is supposed to have on board a cargo of oranges and other fruit She was to put into Pensacola for coal be- fore proceeding to New Orleans. The reports are that the weather is very rough on the Gulf tonight and has been all day.

GOLD AND SILVER OUTPUT.
Gain in Former Almost Entirely Due to the
 KIOndyke.

Washington. Jan. 2.-The preliminary esti- mate of the director of the mint upon the production of gold and silver m th' United States in the calendar year 1905. shows gain of approximately $6.000. 900 in gold and one million ounces of silver, ovsr the product of 1904.
 The gain in gold is almost entirely rep resented by the increased output of Alaska. the product of which is placed at $1t65o,- 100 against s9.t60.590 in 1904. Tie Alaska gain Is nearly all in the Tanana or Fairbanks district the returns for which are sb,l07, 900. California shows a loss of about sI,50o,0oo. due. 1t is said. to severe drought which not only brought hydraulic operaticne to standstill, but interfered with the quartz mills to some extent Nevada shows a gains of about s4o0.00 and Utah as much; Colorado gains about s1.000.090; South Da- kota, Montana, Idaho. Oregon, and Arizo- na are estimated at about the same as in the previosu year.
 The klondike continues to fall off and Is about S2,000. 900 below 1904.

JUDGE LONGNECKER TALKS.
He Says Young Man Arrested here Is .
 "RIack Shecp,o

Chicago, Jan. 3.-(Special. )-"Why, no, that fellow Is not my son. He Is no relation of mine said Judge Long, necker over the telephone tonight when the telegram from The Advertiser was read to him. But he goes around ev- anywhere representing himself as my son. Not long ago he told a St. Louis banker he was my son and on the strength of that he tried to get money. The banker telephoned the First Ma tional Bank here and the bank in turn telephoned me and I had to deny the authorship of this human enigma.
 "A short time thereafter a friend of mine in Memphis, Tenn, stepped into my office and after chatting for awhile he remarked incidentally that he met my son in Memphis and my son was temporarily stranded and he gladly gave him financial assistance. It was this same Richard c. Longnecker.
 T hate to tell my story over again for the fifteenth time in as many months, for this young fellow gets into trouble all over the country and always represents himself as my son. Then, too I have a son whose initials are R. R. and those of the Longnecker black sheep are R. c. The similarity of initials cause much annoyance to time this fellow bobs up with a new scrape. Sometimes I have to laugh at my sons discomflture.
 Richard c. Longnecker, the one un- der arrest in Alabama, was a member of Roosevelts Rough Riders. He trav- els for the firm of Longnecker, Evans & Co.,, dealers in linens, 246 Market Street, and lives at 7100 Yale Street. His father Is secretary of the firm.

A WELL SPREAD TABLE. And the Man "FeII Out" With It.

A manufacturer in Mo. says he start ca out as young man with almost perfect health, but that. by the time l was 24 my digestive apparatus was so completely wrecked as to make my life positive burden.
 T was neither a hard thinker nor an inveterate user of tobacco-my con dition could not be charged up to these things
 T had simply ruined my digestion by a course of living common among those who indulged in unwisely select ed food and deny their appetites noth- ing: And so years passed, during which every sort of food seemed to do just the opposite of what 1t should table was offensive to me. The sight of smell of food, made me deathly sick In brief, I had dyspepsia, in its worst form. and spent many hard earned dollar for remedies which did me no good whatever.
 This was my condition when a friend insisted that should try Grape Nuts food, and to please, him I con benefit or pleasure from 1t than I had from other prepared foods that I had tried. But I was most happily dis appointed
 "Tor more than a year ate positively nothing but Grape -Nuts-it was my soup course, my meat and my dessert never tired of 1t, and grew steadily fatter and more hearty. till I put 40 pounds of good solid flesh that had never been there before, on my bones. My dyspepsia is gone-the memory of a terrible nightmare.

stili Hopeful, However, of Overthrow
 Ing the Government iv Future.
 St. Petersburg. Jan. 4.--(4 a. m.)-- The general meeting of the workmen's s council and of repre- esentatives of the proletariat organizations which was held across the Finnish border lasted for thirty-six hours. adjourning only an hour ago.
 The practical result of the meeting was confession that the government had proved to be too strong in It's fight against the strikers and the pro- letariat organizations and that 1t would be necessary to organize on a new basis the armed revolution to which the delegates at the meeting were committed.
 It was admitted that the attempt to give battle to the government without having made due preparation was a mistake and complete change in the tactics was decided upo.i. A new coun- cil Of workmen consisting of 150 nicm- bers was elected. Similar councils will be organized everywhere following which a general congress will be cali- ed and an elaborate plan of battle against the government formulated.
 In the meantime the propogapda of the agitators will be kept up. especial ly in the army in order to show that the proletarist organizations are firmly re- solved not to compromise with the gov ernment. 1t was also decided not to take part in the elections for the Douma.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful it is in
 PreservinG HeaIth md Reaufr

Nearly everybody knows that char. coal is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier in nature, but few realize it's value when taken into the human system for the same cIeana- Ing purpose.
 Charcoal Is remedy that the mora you take of 1t the better; 1t is not a drug at all but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and care
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions or other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and tn- proves the complexion 1t whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; 1t dlsinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another. but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money 10 in Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges: they are composed of the finest powdered Wil- low charcoal, and other harmless anti. septics in tablet form or rather in the form of large. pleasant tasting log enges the charcoal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use of these lozenses wilI soon tell in a much improved condition of the general health, better complex ion, sWeeter breath and purer blood and the beauty of 1t is, that no possible harm can result from their continued use, put on the contrary, great benefit
 A Buffalo physician in speaking of the benefits of charcoal says: T ad- wise Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels. and to clear the complex ion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; also believe the liver is great ly benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but twenty-five cents a box at drug stores. and although In some sense patent preparation, yet believe l get more and better charcoal in Stu. of the ordinary charcoal tabletA"

CHORUS ON A STRIKE.
Faust Is Sang Without n Chorus in
 


 New York. Jan. 3.--Gounaud's Faust was sung at the Metropolitan Opera House tonight without a chorus, the re- suit of strike by the recently organiz- ed chorus union. The chorus on Mon- day demanded that the salary be raised nearly fifty per cent. Director Hein- rich Conreid met the representatives of the union and told them that if the members of the chorus would come to him as individuals. he would use his best efforts to better their condition, but would refuse to treat with them as members of a labor union.
 Tonight when the usdaI hour or re- porting came. none of the chorus put in an appearance. The opening of the opera was delayed until s:25 o'clock when the members of the, ballot were grouped on the stage to make the scenes as effective as possible under the cir cumstances. MT. Conreid appeared and addressed the audience, telling briefly of his dealing with the chorus unions representatives and stating that new chorus would be organized as speedily as possible, no performance being omit ted in the meantime.
 Mir Conreid told the members of the chorus that no one who went on strike in violation of an individual contract would be re-engaged for a Metropolitan chorus. The chorus numbered about 1S0 persons.

ROUGH RIDER | MADE CHECKS R. (. Longnecker Fined by Recorder Baber. SPENT TIME IN PRISON He Claimed to Be Son of a
 Chicago Judge. Young Man of Good Address Made Friends in Montgomery and
 Bought Clothes with Spu-
 rious Paper.

R. c. Longnecker, a young man who was arrested by Patrolmen Russell and Mitchell on a charge of false pretenses, was yesterday fined $25 and costs by Recorder Baber after a heearing of the evidence. Longnecker remained in the city prison until S:30 o'clock last night when he paid his fine and was released :.
 The young man claims to be a son of Judge Longnecker of Chicago and says he was an officer in Roosevelt's s Rough Riders.
 In a warrant sworn out by W. K. Warren, a clerk of the Capitol Cloth ing Store, it is alleged that Longnecker. on or about December 12, purchased s7 worth of goods from the clothing store and represented to the clerk that he had money in the bank. Longnecker made out a check for the amount on the Merchants and Planters Farley Ma tional Bank and when the paper was presented to the bank the next day it was found that the check was worth less. Longnecker, 1t is alleged. was given a chance to make good the check but again deferred the payment and said he would have the funds in the bank on subsequent day. On the ap- pointed day the bank declined to honor the check and Mir. Warren, as last resort swore out the warrant of ar- rest.
 Since Longnecker has been arrested and convicted It is said that the check to the Capitol Clothing Store was not the first paper of this kind that he has given to merchants and business men of Montgomery.
 Longnecker came to Montgomery about a month ago from Atlanta He introduced himself at the Elks Home on Bibb Street, as a member of Sioux City, la, lodge, and being of polished address and of good breeding he made a number of friends in the city. He claimed to represent a Philadelphia publishing house and seemed to be pro- vided with funds.
 For some time Longnecker stayed at the Melrose Hotel on Church Street, and about two weeks ago his personal effects were attached by the proprietor of that hotel for board bill. He then went to reside at hotel.
 Montgomery men who have become attached to Longnecker express conf dence in him saying he Is simply the victim of a chain of unfortunate cir cumstances.
