SAUNDERS MAY
LOSE MAACHUn|A

1t was reported along the waterfront
" lille the Manchuria was in port yes
terday that Captain Saunders was due
for trouble upon his arrival in San
Francisco because of alleged irreSu-
larity in connection with his naturaliz-
alton papers. The Federal authorities
in San Francisco have been upon a
crusade for severa! months past
against masters and officers of Amer
lean ships holding naturalization pa
pers who were alleged to have secured
them by irregular process. In order
to hold a masters papers and COM
mand an American ship, or to be first
officer upon one, the law makes Amer
lean citizenship Il requisite, and it has
been found that a number of masters
of vessels have been given naturaliza-
ito papers who have not been, in fact,
etitled to them. A number of masters
have already lost their commands be-
cause OF he discovery of Irregularities
of this kind.
Now it is said that the case Of Cap
tain Saunders is to be looked into. The
many friends here of that genial skip
per will hope to hear that he has CONS
safely through the ordeal, and that he
is to keep his command of the fine
ship under him.

[OWSE On
ADVERTISING
he Tells Thursday Club
of Tricks OF the
Trade.

| The talk at the Thursday Club last
night delivered in the Y. NJ c. A was
on advertising" by Ed. Towse The
subject was full of interest and was
entertainingly handled by the lecturer.
Towse started out by quoting several
passages of scripture in which the art
of advertising and publishing was
; mentioned. He then went on to show
the antiquity of advertising
The Greeks and Romans. he said, We're
great advertisers and from the latter
present day street advertising in all
it's forms was derived. This state
ment. remarked the lecturer, was SUBJ
Stimulated by the ruins of Pompeii,
where the empty streets, buried more
than eighteen centuries ago. speak to
inscriptions, posters and signs, writ

Numbers of bills related to games of
the arena. Sixteen hundred posters
found in Pompeii are devoted to cleo
ton purposes, at least a hundred diff
ferent candidates being mentioned
Houses to rent We're advertised and
innkeepers everywhere set uD their
signs, one of these enterprising adver-
tisements reading: "Once one of my

he tastes it, he ticks the saucepan in

Articles lost or found were adver-
tised in any convenient spot-even the
walls of tombs not being exempt.
ToWse referred to the important part
women are playing in the advertising
of today and cited instances where sue
cessful businesses were conducted by
women.
The lecturer discoursed on good, bad
and Indifferent ads. and illustrated his
points by examples cut from papers
and magazines. He said that judicious

der house s20,000.000 worth of bust
ness in one year.
The speaker concluded by stating
that the membership of the Y. NJ. c. A.
might undoubtedly be increased by some
advertising.

DARING PLOT TO LOOT
MANILA PUBLIC TREASURY

a daring plot to rob the insular
treasury has been disclosed. Access to
one of the vaults had already been
provided for. a hole large enough to
admit a mans body had been bored
in the ceiling of the vault as a part

the copper coins which were turned
into the treasury, discovered chips o.
freshly cut hard wood Uttered about
over the sealed boxes in the vault.
His suspicious were at once aroused
and glancing upward he discovered
that piece of the ceiling had been
cut out near the inner wall of the
vault.

GOOD CORN is HIS HOBBY
A Missouri Man Tells of Tits
Experience.


Speaking Of hobbies, h NJ. Rebel,of
Arbela, Mo. whose hobby is growing
good ccrn tells of his experience 10 the
Mail and Breeze as follows:
81 have made q speciality of corn,
which is one Of the most profitable
crops We can grow in the corn belt.
A good crop OF corn can be grown with
out cent of expense. No big seed bill,
no Irvine BILL no thresbing bill. All
the work of growing crop of corn can
be done by the farmer without the aid
of anyone, and then the crop can be-
marketed either through cattle, hogs
or sheep, or the grain can be sold at
good profit right on the farm.
"When first began farming for my
self | had to begin 10 brush patch. l
cut brush and cleared off the ground in
the winter; then in the spring plowed
the sod and planted corn. How it did
grow! Tho stumps were so thick had
to plow the corr with one horse and
home made double-shove pillow. 1t had
to be homemade because nothing l
could buy would stand the pressure.
But raised lots of corn. The neighbors
would come for miles to get corn, as
always managed to raise good crops ev-
en- in poor season.
AT first | raised Just corn, hut after
while found out that there was ii diff
ference in corn, and it didn't all look
alike to me. then degan to pay more
attention to my soed. [ selected the
very best could find in the field and
improved my corn u great deal. But
still had mongrel corn, so / decided
to get some pure bred corn and give it a
trial. l bought some pure bred Reds
Yellow Dent. 1t did fine for me, and
was way ahead Of the old SORT. and l
nave been growing the pufe-bred ever
since.
sat first the neighbors ioked me for
paying 50 per bushel for seed corn, but
when they saw what fine corn l raised
they wanted some of it for seed, and
now nearly all are planting it. Last year
sold all the seed l could spare before
the first of March and had to refuse
ever so many nrders simply because l
was sold ont.
