PLEA FOR MERCY.

We're a nice oil corporation
Who would register a roar
Because the entire nation
Against US seems quite sore.
It's really very pitiful
And little short Of crime
That city after cityful
Jumps on us all the while.
So please don't be too cruel
Please let the subject drop;
Dear, good, kind Uncle Samuel
Please make the papers stop.
We only earned six billions
Within week or two.
We're losing tens of millions
Cause they're bothering US so.
The foreign corporations
From India's coral strand
To Greenland's icy mountains
Take very selfish stand.
they knock US and they knock
us;
We are menaced by them quite.
If the papers would let up a
bit
We'd get a deal more white.
It's surely hard upon US;
The fact all must admit.
If you'd quit on the indict-
ments
The paper, too, would quit.
We think the public's tired
Of hearing about US.
Why, why is this ALFRED,
This awful foolish fuss?
Bout thirteen-inch thick
documents
Nobody cares a pup
And so, dear Mr.. Editor,
Won't you please let up?

NIC0LA| De RAGLAN
WAS A WOMAN

WASHINGTON, Dec 2S = Positive
proof that Nicolai de Raglan, the man
woman" formerly connected with the
Russian consulate in Chicago, who died
at Phoenix. Ariz-, recently, was a
woman, was placed in the hands of the
Russian embassy here today in a
packet of letters received from the au-
thorities at Phoenix by Baron Schlip-
penbach, Russian Consul at Chicago
These letters reveal a pathetic death
bed scene, in which De Raglan begged
for her wife to attend her after
death. Baron Schlippenbach said to-
day, after reading the letters, that he
was satisfied personally that the De
Raglan of Chicago and the De Raglan
who is buried in Phoenix were one and
the same person.
According to medical testimony re-
ceived today, De Raglan carried the de-
ception of her dual personality to the
grave Even the examinations of the
physicians to ascertain the extent of
the disease which ravaged her lungs
failed to reveal her sex. The bones of
the upper body. which are usually fat
in the case of a man and round in
women, were found upon closer exami-
nation after death not to have been
pronounced either way

match, instead OF referring Taylor
10 me2
so far as this match is concerned, It
IS not only the best that we could 90
but / consider $4,000 enough for any
iuo men that ever entered the ring.

tame. Why, Corbett and sullivan
fought for the championship OF the
world for a purse of $4,000. and Jem
hace and Tom Allen fought at New
orleans with bare knuckles for the
worlds championship for $1,000 side.
~Another thing that Influenced me TO

Shipping News and Gossip
of the Water Front
Head Winds Encountered After Leaving
Honolulu Make Liner Doric Late

The Occidental and Oriental Steam
ship Company's liner Doric, Captain
Gaukroger, which was due on Thursday
from the Orient, arrived yesterday
morning, having been delayed after
leaving Honolulu by unusually heavy
head winds accompanied by high sea.
This opposition from the elements con-
tinued for four days and prevented the
liners making her usual good time.
The pilot took on board the news of
Captain Seabury's DEATH and out of
respect to the memory of the Pacific
Nails commodore Captain Gaukroger
ordered all the Dorics flags at half
mast.
The Doric brought 1928 tons of cargo,
which included 330 bales of raw silk,
1878 chests of tea, 5000 bales of hemp
and 1859 rolls of mating. She brought
twenty-three cabin passengers, eight in
the steerage and $50 Asiatics. Among
the latter were twenty-six Sikhs from
India, unskilled laborers who have
come to this country seeking work.
Among the Doric's passengers was
DR.. f. Bodzenhardt, who occupies the
chair of medicine at the University of
Budapest. He is on his way to Phila-
delphia to attend the medical cony A.
tion.
Another passenger was l.. D. Cum
mings who has been in the customs
service in the Philippines and is going
to Havana looking for similar posi-
tion in the event of the American an
,neXation of Cuba. Cummings has a
Japanese wife, whom he married four
years ago in Manila. Chief Paymaster
o. Roddart of the German navy was
another passenger. He is on his way
home after tour of duty on the
Asiatic station.
The Doric's passengers included:
A. H Silverstone. Chief Paymaster o. Rod
