We were about 50 miles south of Cape Horn, hove-to in high, rolling, northwest sea which made the main deck uninhabitable.
 In the dog-watch the carpenter took mercy on Gantline and myself and al- lowed us to share his room in the for ward house for an after-supper smoke. We had started forward when the man on lookout hailed. Through the gloom of the flying drift and twilight a shadow bore down upon the ship. grey-white above black. Then there suddenly loomed out the shape of a great ship tearing along under t'gal- lant sails dead before the gale.
 Then in an instant she was gone. The drift had closed upon her as she swept astern before anyone could read her name. She had vanished as quick ly as she had appeared. passing on in to the dismal sea behind us like a salt-streaked mystery.
 We stood gazing at the whirling drift in the gloom astern for some minutes, and then we followed Chips into his room. Gantline could not re- call the vessel by her shape or rig and asked the carpenter about her.

FAKE FOOD FRAUDS
House Discusses Adulteration
 of What We Eat.
EVIL ON INCREASE ALL OVER LAND
"Poison Adapted to Every Age, Sex and Condition" Says Slayden. Members Rcjuvenated by
 Many Elixirs.

WASHINGTON, June 23. v In the house during the pure food bill dis cussion the package provision of the bill, so called, was debated at length by Mir. Stevens (Minn).
 He said that the peddler of rotten eggs, the gentlemen who manufactur- ed Jamaica ginger out of wood alco- hol, the men who made, adulterated pepper goods and .the gentlemen who sell short weight cans all flavor a pure food bill,'' bat they want amend ments. He said that adulteration was decreasing some, but that misbranding, cheating and swindling by means of imitation food and fraudulently pre- pared food is increasing in the United States, and that the evil needs immedi- ate legislation.
 He said the Western Gamers asso- ciation had sent out a circular that cans were prepared as one pound reg ular, one pound tall, one pound and half.
 Tt is absolutely impossible" he said, eto find can known as No. pound segular prepared for fruit and vege- Tables which will hold pound of pre- pared vegetables You take any daily paper in any state in the Union and you look at the advertisements of the grocers and you will find that ma- jority of the advertisements are of packing products described by weight and measure, and every single descrip- tion is misleading and is a swindle on the public"
 MT. Slayden (Tex) was of the opin- ion that for every case of ptomaine poisoning there have been hundred or more cases of poisoning and death from the use of hurtful drugs. He said the people will avoid unclean meat as pestilence. but once they have the habit pen will lie and steal to gratify their debased appetite for drugs.
 'There seems to be poison adapted to every age, sex and condition" said MT. Slayden.
 "Men who would scorn a toddy and cannot be persuaded by a pleasing compound of mint and other things honestly and frankly presented will surrender to 'bitters'' that are recom- mended for the stomach sSsake.@ z
 If one may believe what he sees in the portrait gallery of the newspapers those members of congress who have not been restored by somebody's celery compound have been rejuvenated by peruna. Indeed peruna seems to be the favorite congressional drink. 1 happen to know that it is also favor ite prescription in certain prohibition sections. The fact that it makes men drunk quickly. violently and some times viciously. has not hurt it's stand ing as family medieHAy s
 It was his belief that the bill would promote honesty in trade and cultivate the habit of telling the truth.

senate ana House, without DinBent,
 Agree In Conforming Massacres
 of Jews at Bialystok and Else
 where In Unhappy Country.
 WASHINGTON, June 23.-The sen- ate without dissenting vote adopted a joint resolution introduced by Sen ator McLaurin expressing sympathy with the Russian Hebrews on account of the recent massacres.
 By a unanimous vote the house pass cd the senate resolution expressing the sympathy of the people of the United States with the Hebrews on account of the massacres of their race in Russia. The senate resolution reads:
 That the people of the United States are mortified by the reports of the massacres of Hebrews in Russia on account of their race and religion and that those bereaved thereby have the hearty sympathy of the people of this country"
 It will have to be signed by the presi- dent to be complete legislative act.
 It does pot seem likely that the Unit ed States government will be able to take any steps which will afford relief to persecuted Jews in Russia.
 Since the recent massacre the ad- ministration has been considering re- quests that this government do some thing to relieve the condition of the Jews, but the president has not been able to devise any plan whereby he can render assistance, and the same is true of state department officials.
 A Berlin dispatch says that an in habitant of Bialystok, Russia, who was present during the entire massacres there and who has arrived in Berlin, has given the German Hebrews Aid society the following account of the massacre there;
 June 14 was the fortieth anniver- sary of the compulsory adhesion of many Catholics to the Orthodox church, and a celebration of the event was planned The police and military were fully armed, apparently prepar- ing for a conflict. Though there were no visible enemies the Jews became alarmed and sought hiding places.
 "On Thursday processions of Ortho- dox Russians and Catholics to the churches began and were apparently passing without incident, causing many of the Jews to reopen their shops. Later an uproar began at one part of the processlons, and the rumor spread that the Jews had thrown bomb into the crowd and were tear Ing a Russian priest to pieces.
 "The crowd shouted, Down with the Jewsr and >thereupon roughs armed with clubs entered the nearest Jewish houses and brought the inmates out, destroying whatever they found with in.
 "The military in the meanwhile be- gan firing upon the houses of prom inent Jewish townsmen, and Jews were taken from their houses beaten to death and their bodies mutllated beyond recognition"

McLaurfn Said That Bryan Would Be
 Next President.
 WASHINGTON, June 23.-The sen ate has passed the bill allowing $25,- 900 year for travelling expenses of the president by vote of AZ to 20
 During the discussion Senator Nc. Laurin took issue with those who con tend that provision should be made to permit the president to take newspa- per men with him in his travels, saying that the people generally are not con cerned about the private affairs of the president.
 He would admit that there might be some toadies who would have curiosi- ty as to what the president may eat or drink, so that he doesn't drink intoxi- eating liquors. There is, he declared, no interest in the president simply be- cause of his office, and the senator did not believe that more people would turn out to see him than would have gone out to see Mr. Gladstone or who would go to see Aguinaldo He was buIC lldt lLlC NuSt iAoJoiity VI tiiC pSO- pie regarded him as a human being and care no more for the president than for any other man of distinction.
 He announced his confidence that the present chief executive has not sought this legislation, and, knowing him well. he had confidence that if the proposi- ton should be presented to him inde- pendently he was satisfied that he would veto it. He also dissented from the view that the president should un- dertake to mold public sentiment, for if allowed to do that the country could never have but one view on any sub- ject. There was to his mind no req son why Mir. Roosevelt should have his expenses paid while travelling about the country, nor would there be any reason for such a course when Mr. Bryan, who, he announced in confi- dence would be the next president, takes the office.
