Charles Thesing Did Not Find
His Son at Dublin as He
Thought For.
HIS RELATIVES MISTAKEN
LAD WHO RAN AWAY is NOW
SAFELY HOME HOWEVER AND
SAYS HE LEFT TO SEE SOME
OTHER CITIES.

Harmon Thesing, the twelve year
old lad who ran away from the home
of his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Thesing, PIG North Sixteenth street,
was returned to his home last even
ing after search in which the po-
lice assisted, lasting from Tuesday
evening up to yesterday afternoon,
when he was located in Indianapolis
The chief of police in that city in
formed Chief Bailey that the boy had
been found there and was being held
until some one came to take him in
to custody. Harmon denied last even
ing that he ran away from home be-
cause he did not wish to "soea!z a
piece" at the commencement exer-
cises at st. Andrews school next
Thursday, but that he wandered Off
because he wanted to see other cities
and towns.
How Mistake Came About.
1t was stated in the Palladium yes
terday morning that young Thesing
had been caught at Dublin, and that
his father had gone there Wednesday
evening for the purpose of bringing
the boy back. This statement was
made on the authority of one of the
members of the lads family and
was thought to be authentic.
Even the boys father when he left
here Wednesday evening for Dublin
thought he was to find his son at the
intended to return with him to this
city early Thursday morning. Mrs.
Thesing was so happy over finding
her son at Dublin (a5 she thoughD
that she telephoned the information
to the Palladium.
Did Not Like Dublin.
1t developed yesterday that Har-
mon after arriving in Dublin Tuesday
afternoon and spending the night
there had left on a west bound inter-
urban car about $3.50 Wednesday af-
ternoon but returned to Dublin an
hour later. For some unknown reason
he again left that place on a west
bound car about 4:3O o'clock and
went direct to indianapolis where the
police had been notified to look for
him. Harmon rode his wheel from
Richmond to Dublin but finding this
method of transportation too weari-
some he abandoned it and started out
to conquer the world and seek new
fields of adventure with the princely
sum of $6 in his pocket.

Washington, June 21.-The Senate
this afternoon decided by a vote of
SO to 331, in favor of a lock canal
across the Isthmus of Panama. AS the
lock type has already been adopted
by the House and is strongly approx
ed by the President, the action of the
Senate settles the question
To senator who at once conveyed
the news to the White House the
President expressed the greatest
qualification over the decision of the
Senate. He said that as soon as he
has been officially notified he will di-
rect Chairman Shows, of the canal
commission ito cut loose and dig

A Startling Climax.
The day was not without another
startling climax. 1t came when dis
cussion was resumed on the provis-
ion in the sundry civil bill, appropri-
ating $25,00 annually for the Presi-
dents travelling expenses. Mr.. Nc
Laurin (Miss.) sharply criticized the
President and Mr.. Bailey (TeX.) de-
clared he had cost more and had been
worth less than any of his predeces-
sors, but it remained for Mr.. McCum-
ber (No. Dak.) a Republican, to char
acterize the provision as further at
tempt to copy foreign customs by sur
rounding the President with the gau-
dy trappings of royalty and to build
up an army of underlings. The North
Dakotan will continue his remarks
along this line tomorrow.

Shirtmaking i'm Ireland.

Shirtmaking is carried on to a large
city is the capital Of the industry and
supplies the trade Of the United King
dom, Of the continent Of Europe, Of the
English colonies, and, indeed, Of the
world, with millions of shirts, collars,
cuffs and kindred articles Of apparel.
There are as many as $4,000 persons
employed every day in the year in the
Derry shirt factories. The manufac-
turers complain that it Is difficult to
get sufficient number Of workers. One
Of the difficulties is that four-fifths of
those engaged in this industry are
women and girls. The men are for the
most part engaged in shipbuilding and
allied trades, while the women and
girls work in the linen factories and
shirt factories. To be sure, the wages
are not very high. While learning their
trade, girls receive about four shillings
a week, or a little less than 81. After
they have become educated in the in
dustry their earnings depend upon
their skill and energy, as they are paid
by the piece. After six months Of ap-
premiership, an intelligent girl may
earn II shillings a week, which is about
So. The average would be about nine
sh1llings a week, q little over So. To
earn those wages a girl must sew on
a machine about two and a half dozen
shirts per week.

A Natural Error.

A travelling man says that he once
had occasion, while in Maryland, to
make business call upon the proprie-
tor Of a general store in a town on
the eastern shore. Now this prOprie-
tor was known on all sides to be illit-
crate. Nevertheless, he would never
concede the truth of the general i'm
preston.
The travelling man says that when
he entered the store, the proprietor was
engaged in a business conversation
with a customer, who, as he turned to
go, said:
"By the way, believe 1 owe you
some money, don't II"
Just minute" answered the pro.
prietor, turning to a slate on the wall
Reversing it, he carefully scanned the
marks thereon. you owe me for @
cheese" he finally said.
"a cheeseY repeated the customer
why, haven't bought a cheese off you
for months. There must be some mis-
take"
The stOrekeeper gave a second glance
at the reverse side Of the slate.

smile, lit was a grindstone. I didn't

The artist and a friend went for a
walk along the Embankment one won
derful starry night. Whistler had been
in a very discontinued mood all day
and inclined to find fault with every
thing. Nothing pleased him; the
houses were ugly, the river not what
it might have been the lights hard and
glaring. His friend pointed out sew
eral things that appealed to him as
beautiful, but the master would not
give in.

times beautiful, only sometimes, very,
very seldom indeed, and tonight she
is, as so often, positively ugly"

perhaps, but, my dear fellow, there's

A knowledge of the Sciences OBJ
tanned There 1000 Years Ago.
Without trying to unravel the tangle
Of early Chinese history, it may be said
with a fair degree Of assurance that
forty centuries ago-nearly a thousand
years before the earliest assured event
In Greek history, the Dorian invasion,
| and a century before Abraham was
born-we find in North China. in the
modern provinces of Shan-si, Shen-si
and Ho-nan, people with institutions,
government and religion, with a fairly
well developed literature, and a knOwl-
edge OF the sciences and arts, says a
writer In the Chautauquan.
In this region it is possible for such
questions as the following to be put
to candidates for literary degrees :
Firearms began with the use Of rock

255) IN what book do we first meet

The Sung dynasty CA. D. 960-1279)

what were their advantagesW Here,
too, another important factor in mod
| ern civilization, the compass, seems
to have been first used about 100 b.
c., when magnetic needles were given
to ambassadors from q southern coun-
try to enable them to find they way
home With the perverseness which
marks many things Chinese, these
needles always point to the south and
are known as indicating south nee
dies" or "south-pointing chariots," al
lud1ng to an ancient arrangement by
which the needle was mounted on q
pair OF minute and easily moving
! wheels.
TO name a third important inven-
ton, in the ancient capital of Hsi-an
Flu, 700 years before Gutenberg an
nounced the discovery Of printing, the
famous Emperor Tai Tsung caused the
| thirteen classics to be engraved upon
137 slabs Of granite. No sooner was It
completed than the idea Of making
this standard version accessible to
scholars throughout the empire led to
a multiplication Of copies through rub
| b1ngs that were taken, and these colos-
sal granite type forms are still used
for a like purpose. In 932 one Feng
Tao invented the present method Of
printing from blocks, while the inVen-
tor Of movable type, Pi Sheng, made
his discovery in 1000 A. D.
In this same old China the sciences
received much attention. Six hundred
years before alchemy, the forerunner
| Of chemistry, began to be studied In
Europe, Chinese alchemists were try
ing to find the elixirs that would be-
stow Immortality and change baser
metals into gold. If legends may be
/ believed, an astronomical board was in
existence 1920 years before Christ. APP

to 1t, since two Of its professional men,
bers are said to have been put to death
for failing to foretell an eclipse.

you are unable to quietly and calmly
perform your daily tasks or care for
your children.
The relation Of the nerves and gen.
erative organs in woman is so close
that nine-tenths of the nervous pros
tration, nervous debility, the blues,
sleeplessness and nervous irritability
arise from some arrangement of the
organism which makes her a woman.
Fits of depression or restlsssness and
irritability spirits easily affected, so
that one minute she laughs, the next
minute weeps; pain in the abdominal

Nothing will relieve this distressing
condition and prevent months of pros

Mrs. M. E. Shotwell, of 103 Flatbush

Will not the volumes of letters from

Pulling Hard Against the Stream
In the world I've gained my knowledge
And for it have had to pay;
Though l never went to college,
Yet I've heard the poets say:
Life is like a mighty river,
Rolling onward toward the sea.
Men are vessels launched upon it,
Sometimes wrecked and cast away.
REFRAIN.
Then do your best for one another,
Making life a pleasant dream
Help worn and weary brother
Pulling hard against the stream.
Many light, good-hearted fellow,
Many undetermined man,
Finds himself in water shallow;
Then assist him if you can.
Some succeed at every turning,
Fortune favors every scheme
Others, too, though more deserving,
Have to pull against the stream.
If the wind is in your favor,
And you've weathered every squall,
Think of those whose luckless labor
Never gets fair winds at all.
Then do your best for one another,
Making life a pleasant dream
Help a worn and weary brother
Pulling hard against the stream.
Don't give way to foolish sorrow;
Let this keep you in good cheer:
Brighter days may come tomorrow,
If you try and persevere.
Darkest nights will have a morning,
Though the sky be overcast;
Longest lanes must have a turning,
And the tide will turn at last.

The Days that Are No More.

The Days that Are NO More.
Tears, idle tears! 1 know not what they
mean.
Tears from the depth of some divine de-
spair
Rise in the heart and gather to the eyes
In looking on the happy autumn fields
And thinking of the days that are no
more.
Fresh as the first beam glittering on a
sail
That brings our friends up from the un-
derworld;
Sad as the last which reddens over one
That sinks with all we love below the
more!
All Sad and strange as in dark summer
dawns
The earliest pipe of half-awakened birds
To dying ears when unto dying eyes
The easement slowly grows a glimmerng
square
So sad, so strange, the days that are no
more!
Dear as remembered kisses after death
And sweet as those by hopeless fancy
feigned
On lips that are Cor others; deep as
love
Deep as first love and wild with all re-
greet
o Death in Life, the days that are no
more!

Terrible Sca1y Humor in Patches All
Over the Body-Skin Cracked and
Bleeding-Cured by Cuticura.
II was afflicted with psoriasis for
thirty-fve years. 1t was in patches all
over my body. I used three cakes of
Cuticura Soap, six boxes of Ointment,
and two bottles of Resolvent. In thirty
days 1 was completely cured, and
think permanently, as it was about five
years ago. The psoriasis first made it's
appearance in red spots, generally
forming a circle, leaving in the center
a spot about the size of a silver dol
lar Of sound flesh. In short time the
affected circle would form heavy dry
scale Of white silvery appearance and
would gradually drop off. To remove
the entire scales by bathing or using
oil to soften them the flesh would be
perfectly raw, and a light discharge
of bloody substance would ooze out.
That scaly crust would form again in
twenty-four hours. It was worse on
my arms and limbs, although it was
in spots all over my body, also on my
scalp. If let the scales remain too
long without removing by bath or 9th
erwise, the skin would crack and bleed.
1 suffered intense itching, worse at
nights after getting warm in bed, or
blood warm by exercise, when 1t would
be almost unbearable. w. NJ. Chides-
