Man an Accident.

The great majority Of men are acct
dents. 1 mean that they are creatures
Of circumstances and victims Of en-
vironment. How small indeed must be
the number who set out in life at an
early age to become this, that or.
t'other and are not switched of tie
track by just little incident. Some Of
us Gre switched of early and some
late; nay, some too late. I do not be-
lieye it advisable for a man to change
his occupation after he is forty FIVE.
Yet many men do make change, and
for the better, even after fifty or fifty
five. a man should be settled down at
about thirty three. At that age he is
old enough to have some sense, and
should know pretty well his bent and
capabilities. Most Of us, however, are
the straws Of every wind that blows.

that her death knell had sounded.
Our hospitals are full of women

1t is quite true that these troubles

The Habits of tho Physician That caus.

The Habits of the Physician That Cause
His Eventual Ending.
The diseases which claim the most
victims among physicians relatively to
all males are govt and diabetes. and
there is a high relative mortality from
diseases Of the nervous system aud
kidneys.
From the nature of his habits the
physician is not subject to accidents,
and. though he is brought into contact
with infection to greater extent
than other men, his preventive means
are successful and his mortality from
infection is very low. Freedom from
prolonged muscular strains and high
blood tension apparently saves him
from arteriosclerosis, but suicide claims
many, and SO do the drug habits ac-
1uired by the nervously exhausted. 1t
has been said that Three fourths of
French morphine users are physicians.
The cause Of the physicians early
death is evidently the excessive ner-
yous expenditure, insufficient rest and
defective nutlstt.61, insepafable from
his calling, with its broken and re-
stricted sleep, irregular hours of work.
rest and meals, the worry when lives
depend upon his judgment and the lack
Of a day Of complete relaxation iii
each week. The physician who sees
his patients every day in the week,
month after months, and cannot learn
to forget them when he goes home,
merely burns the candle at both ends.
He violates the law obeyed by every
other animal, that there should be
short periods of moderate exertion in
terrupted by longer periods of rest
when repairs are made. 1t is not too
much work as rule. but scattered
work, which prevents rest. -American

S Many great people have their names

Russia's greatest statesman in the first
part Of the nineteenth century and was
rs we'll known to the world then as
White is now. He lived in stirring
times and was a power in Europe.
When he concluded the Peace of Paris
in 1856 he imagined-and had a right
to-that he would never be forgotten.
And he is not, for French cook on

e01 ILBERT CURTIS had run
< ~ up to Deephayen to put in
- pa few days there with a
friend. The reports Of the
4ae quaint old town by the sea
fascinated him.
His friend Alden had gone to Deep.
haven early in the summer, and had
written as laudatory letters as possible.
Then he began to speak of another
charm Deephaven afforded. ~ can't
help plying her a little, though it's
absurd to say that about Mrs. WORTH
tngton. But she's SO young. and has
such q bright, unaffected vivacity, and
her eyes~are very. round, and sller eye
brows SO arched, and on her temples
there Is the dimmest little touch of q
wandering blue vein. such as shows
sometimes through a baby's skin. You
can analyze, Curtis, and I can only
sympathize. She has been married
once, and lost her husband. That was
over two years ago."
Each subsequent letter had some al
fusion to Mrs. Worthington. Then
there was no letter at all for a week.
Then short letter without any allu-
sion to her. But Alden urged, almost
plafntively, that Curtis would come to
Deephaven for while.
The day Curtis arrived the two men
got boat and drifted around in the
little bay. They passed small prom
ontory jutting picturesquely out into
the ripping water. Alden looked glow
ering at the top of it.

he asked, indicating by his glance the
charming promontory. ''Ten days ago

BOSTON, September 15-Attorney Cen
eral William H. Moody, who was in the
city today, said, with reference to the Gu
ban situation:
Il hope sincerely that they will bring or
der without having the United States in
tervene."
When it was suggested that this was
what considerable number in both camps
OF the Cubans seemed to want the At
torney General remarked: "Yes, that seems
to be true
And, of course" the Attorney General
added, "if we went there second time we
would not be apt to be able to get away
In a hurry"
Mr.. Moody was asked whether he could
imagine situation two years hence in
which President Roosevelt would be COM
PEELED to run again.
No-yes,' he answered. Il can imagine
such situation, but 1 should hope most
1t would be very painful to the President
I have absolute confidence in his sincerity
that he does not, under any circumstances
want to take another nomination."
Mr.. Moody spent some time today at re-
publican state headquarters in connection
with his work as chairman of the commit
tee on resolutions, of the Massachusetts re-
publican convention, which will be held
October 8. - In reply to question Mr..
Moody said: mo, / have not yet written

PICKED UP BY CoLUMBINE.
oregon's Passengers and Seamen Are
Now Safe.

VALDES. Alaska, September 15.-Passen-
gers and seamen of the steamer Oregon,
which ran on the rocks at Hinchinbrook
Island Thursday night took to lifeboats
the morning after the steamship struck,
and were picked up several hours later
by the lighthouse tender Columbine, which
was surveying those waters for the light
house on Hinchinbrook. The Columbine
arrived at Valdes with the passengers and
mail this morning. The revenue cutters
sent to the wreck have not returned. The
Oregon was three miles off her course east
of Hinchinbrook and struck the rock fifty
yards from shore where the bank is per-
pendicular.
There was chance to land She slid
off until she listed in few feet of water,
with several fathoms under the stern. She
is hard and fast aground, filed with water
to the second deck, and will probably go
to pieces in the first swell from the ocean.
. The captain maintained good discipline,
and threatened to shoot men who were at
tempting to get off in a lifeboat, after which
his orders were obeyed without question,
and all got off without accident If the
weather remains calm there is a possible
chance of lightering some of the Oregon's
cargo, but as the boat is on the ocean
side of. the island, exposed to the swell,
such salvage is doubtful.

ARln HEADguARTEgC HANHNA,
LEFT FOR FEz.
Minister Gummere is the Head of the
Embassy.

TANGIER, Morocco, September 15.-The
American mission left here today for Fez
Minister Gummere is the head of the en-
bassy and he is accompanied by Command
er j. c. Fremont, American naval attache
at Paris. and Capt. William s. Guignard
the military attache. The embassy was ac-
companied for short distance out of Tan
gier by Mohammed Ell Torres, Moroccan
minister of foreign affairs, and several of
the foreign representatives.
Mr.. Gummere is the first American min
lister to visit the count at FeZ 1t is a sig
nificant fact that Raisuli, the bandit chief
sent presents to the first camping place
where the embassy will spend the night.
Minister Gummere, although he has been
minister to Morocco for nearly a year, has
never presented his credentials to the sui
tan of that country. The presentation of
these credentials involves considerable cere-
mony. and for that reason military attaches
of this government accredited to other
countries have been employed to accom-
pany the minister. 1t is stated at the De-
partment of State that no other significance
Is attached to the mission of Mr.. Gummere
and suite than one of formal ceremony.
The equipment which the minister takes
with him Is required to accommodate the
party as the road to Fee does not afford
accommoda tions for travellers of the char
acter of the American mission. 1t is un-
derstood that the German minister. will
make similar pilgrimage to Fee very
soon,
