THE "KNOCKER" AT WORK.

1t is easy to point out the '~knocker,'
when lie willfully stays away from a
mass meeting OF oar citizens who want
Legitimate manufacturing enterprises
and are willing to consider legitimate
offers which other cities will jump at.
The ''knocker," without knowing what
he is talking about, prefers to call the
benefactor IAN old buzzard," and pro-
ceeds to ridicule his fair offer which can
be proven to be Legitimate by actual es-
Inmates. The secret of this ''knocking'
is that the ''~knocker" gets a graft of
S!5 a month out of the city electric light
plant for doing nothing but looking
wise, and sees in this proposition tina, if
our people get the gigantic improvement
his little graft will be cut off right at the
butt. The time has come to sit down on
the "knocker," and do it so hard that
he will not be in position to disgrace the
city on every occasion when good
things are at hand to be considered
and he hobs up to knock" and ridicule
in payment for the graft he is receiving.
Will our citizens wake up to the fact that
this disglaceful yapping will set this city
back and drive business away, rather
than encourage our development?

CLEVELAND IN PUBLIC
PRESIDES At CHARITIES

Philadelphia. May 12.--With former
President Grover Cleveland as the
presiding officer. the opening meeting
of the thirty-third national conference
of charities and corrections was held
in the Academy of Music. The large
auditorium was filled with representa-
tives of organizations engaged in
charitable and correctional work not
only in this country but in Canada
and Europe and the ex-President was
given an enthusiastic welcome as he
appeared on the platform. Among the
many distinguished persons present
was Mrs. Cleveland, who occupied a
proscenium box Mr.. Cleveland made
the first address of the meeting and
said in part:
"This national conference of chart
ties and corrections, in view of the OBJ
ject it seeks to accomplish, may well
be described as a general clearing
house of charitable and benevolent
work. Through its constituent agen-
cies 1t touches the individual and
through the betterment of the indi-
yidual 1t serves the nation. My
thoughts dwell upon the duty of indi-
vidual charities. In sense, all that
is done in discharge of this duty,
whether done by individuals or gov
ernmental agencies representing us,
all may be said to rest in personal re-
sponsibility and may be traced to one
source-a recognition of the fact that
in the field of charity we are our
brothers keepers. The field Is so
large and the labor is so delicate that
none of us can secure acquittance
without personal service.
ut is this element of personal SER
vice represented in this national con-
ference that give the occasion its
greatest Importance and significance.
II have sometimes wondered II
those active In charitable work fully
appreciated how extensively, under
the guise of charity, schemes are put
on foot that are either so illegitimate-
ly related to it, or SO unimportant and
impracticable as to abundantly ex.
cuse a denial of their appeal for aid;
and | often fear 1t is not realized as
It should be in charitable circles that
these schemes are presented so con-
stantly and with such Importantly
and SO often prove to be unworthy,
or faddish, as to per-
plex and discourage those willing to
give to sensible and properly organ
lied charity. It is thus that, quite
all charitable movements
are discredited or prejudiced."

FIRST APOSTLE HAS BUT
SHORT TIME TO LIVE.

Chicago, May 14.-The condition Of
John Alexander Dowie is said to be
nearing a critical stage. The vener-
able FIRST apostle" has taken to his
bed and his strength is failing. The
swelling cf the extremities which is
a noticeable characteristic Of his af-
Fiction, Is said to have extended up
ward until within a few inches Of the
heart. DR.. Blanks, who has been in
constant attendance upon Dowie
since his return from Mexico, said
that he might, by reason of his great
vitality, live week or ten days, but
that a fatal termination of the dis
ease within two or three days would
not be surprising.

SULTAN SCARED INTO sURREN-
DER BY BATTLEsHiPs.
FEARED THE DEVELOPMENTS.
Il Is Quite Unlikely That Great
Britain viii Accept Mixed or Inter-
national Commission to Examine
Into Frontier Question.

London, May Is. - In manner
characteristic of Turkish diplomacy,
the porte has made an eleventh-hour
surrender to the British demand con-
corning the Tabah boundary. 1t had
been believed in many quarters that
the sultan would not yield until actual
force was displayed, but this decision
probably was fastened by the knowl-
edge that none of the powers support
ed his attitude and the combined fact
that British naval preparations had
kept pace with her diplomatic de-
mands.
Sir Nicholas R. O'Connor, the Brit
ish ambassador at Constantinople, in
his earlier dispatches had prepared
the British government for Turkeys
compliance with Its demand, and lit
tie attention need be paid to the re-
ports Of conditional surrender. that
phrase probably being intended to
satisfy the Turkish people,
At the foreign office the Associated
Press learned that 1t was quite I'M
likely that Great Britain would &C.
cept anything in the nature of a mix
ed or international commission to ex-
anime into the frontier question, and
the foreign Office declined to believe
that Ambassador O'Connor had &C.
cepted any conditional surrender.
It Is understood the British feet
will be kept at Phalerum Bay, pend
ing final settlement of the question
and the delimitation Of the frontier.
Vice-Admiral Lord Charles Beres-
ford, commanding the feet, with his
officers, was able to attend banquet
at the British legation in Athens, at
which King George and the Royal
Family, the Greek premier and the
American and French ministers were
guests.
When the delimitation Of the boun-
Diary is settled 1t is expected that the
British government will take meas
ures to render Egypt strategically Sc
cure against any similar aggression
by establishing a strong Egyptian gar
rison and fortifying Ell Arish, and, If
the water difficulty In the desert re-
gion can be solved, by placing

along which an invading army might

STRENUOUS IN HIS WALKS.
The President Gives an Englishman
and a German Some vio-
lent Exercise.

President Roosevelt gave to two dis
tinguished foreigners one day lately a
slight touch Of the strenuous life. He
had as his guests at luncheon a stag
party that included a number of men
who have hunted big game in various
parts Of the world. Among them were
Capt. G. q. Radcliffe, of England, late
Of the First life guards, and Paul Me.
deck. of Germany. Both visited
Alaska two years ago, and they are on
their way to the territory again for
the purpose Of hunting big game.
The president asked them to go out
for walk with him later In the
afternoon. Capt. Dadcliffe and Mr..
Niedieck accordingly returned to the
White House at four o'clock, and en-
tering a carriage with the president,
they were driven out into the country,
northwest of the city, distance Of
about seven miles. Mr.. Roosevelt in
vited his guests to alight, suggesting
that they walk back to town with him.
Under the presidents leadership they
Immediately left the highway and
soon crossed a small stream, the ex-
ecutive clearing 1t with jump.
Nov we will 90 right up here"
said the president, pointing to a high
bluff thickly covered with rocks, small
trees and underground. Capt. Rad
cliffe, who Is strong, we'll built man,
about 40 years old, and has had long
experience on the widest mountain
trails, thought his host was joking,
for he laughed and said THAT is
a rather hard route, don't you know,
Mr. President"
"Oh, no." exclaimed the president
This is all right" and he went up the
bluff on the run, catching at the brush
and small trees to support himself.
The Englishman and the German fol-
lowed, resolved not to show the white
feather, for the walk had just begun.
They had been advised by the presi-
dent to wear their worst clothes, and
the president himself was dressed in
coat and knee breeches which
showed much wear The president
walked few PAGES ahead and Sc
lected the route. It was "cross coun-
try" all the way, and there was no
turning out for hills, fences or streams.
Capt. Radcliffe and Mr.. Niedeck re-
turned to their hotel just after dark.
The Englishman said he had had an
unusual experience, and the German
was played out

TO GUARD WASHINGTON.
Island May Be Built at Entrance OF
Chesapeake Bay for Needed
Fort.

The creation of an artificial island
In the middle Of the entrance to
Chesapeake bay is proposed by the
joint board on coast defense as an
absolute essential to the defense OF
the national capital and the cities Of
Baltimore, Norfolk, Newport News and
even Richmond. The daring exploits
Of the Japanese naval captains during
the recent war have convinced the
army engineers that 1t is no longer
safe to rely upon the defenses at
Fortress Monroe to control the en-
trance to the Chesapeake.
1t was held by the old school Of en-
gineers that any warship approaching
the bay with hostile intent would be
obliged to enter through the main ship
channel, which would bring them
within range of the guns of the fort
and the ripraps. But that channel is
five miles wide, and naval officers on
the board have also declared that
venturesome commander In time of
war would not hesitate to run YES
sci Of medium draft through the north
channel beyond the sweep of the ex-
isting forts on the south shore of the
bay.
In consequence the board has con-
cluded that fortress should be erect
ed to command the north side of the
present main channel as we'll as the
north channel and the only proper
site for this fortress would be on what
are known as the middle grounds.
The water is shallow, but there is mo-
land above tide and therefore the gov
eminent must dump stone into the
bottom of the bay, as 1t did when 1t
built the ripraps fort at the entrance
of Hampton Roads, until founda-
ton is secured for the defenses.
The cost of the work will be heavy,
but its advocates contend that 1t iy
after all only a bagatelle as compared
with the insurance afforded to untold
millions Of dollars worth of national
and private property on the shores OF
the bay or Its tributaries.
Congress has already officially been
made aware of the want, but so far
no provision has been made in any
Of the pending appropriation bills for
the work and the members of the
board fear that they will not be au-
thorized to enter upon 1t during the
present year.
