BESSEs O TH' BARN BAND.
Famous English Organization to Ap-
 pear at White City.

 pear at White City.
 The Royal Bosses O tn Barn Band, which comes to the White City next Thursday and Friday, will arrive in New York from England the first of next week. The concerts to be given by the band here will be the only ones in this country, as soon after the engage ment the band will resume it's trip to New Zealand and Australia, which countries it is under contract to tour.
 The famous band, which comes from Whitsfeld, near Manchester England, takes it's name from a quaint old Lam cashire village called the Bosses O tn Barn, which at the commencement of the bands history was simply 2 small hamlet of few tenements, in which time has now wrought many changes.
 The origin of It's peculiar name is eX- plained in various ways, only a few of which, however, are accepted with any credibility. The earliest mention of Bosses O tn Barn takes us to within nine years of Dick Turpin at York when in a newspaper dated January 1747, an advertisement appeared con- vening a meeting of creditors at "Bes- sey's O tn Barn." This hostelry was of barnlike appearance and was kept by a good-looking Lancashire lass call ed "Bess," or Bessie" and as the inn became a noted house of call the re- mark would often be, Let us go and see Bessie at tn Barn"
 Another legend (presumably) was to this effect: A noted highwayman (gen- erally supposed to be Dick Turpin was in the habit of stabling his steed in the old barn which stood at the square in front of the Bosses O tn Barn Inn. The name of this gallant steed was said to have been Black Bess or Bess O tn Barn, and it was from the exploits of this horse and its rider that the village obtained it's name.
 Do not miss seeing the last perform ances of Weedon's lions and the famous horse Mascot" to-day.
 Next Tuesday is Juvenile Day at the Rock, and every child paying fare will receive a handsome souvenir present, and some lucky child will get the grand prize-a handsome gold watch.
 To-day the last performances will be given at the theater by the sterling vaudeville show headed by J. Francis Dooley.

PRINCE & wH1TE1Y,s LETTER.

New York, July 27.-During the last hour under acceptance of profits reces- sions from the top were noticeable but the tone at the close was not weak and the sentiment in favor of still higher prices before any material decline. Our views for the immediate future are un- changed, on reactions we incline to- wards purchases of the better class of securities, especially so long as crops, monetary and commercial conditions at home continue as food as at present. The Russian situation is the only de- terrent feature that we can see in the immediate future. We think that it is no time to trade extensively either way and conservatism would seem to be the best policy until the trend of Russian affairs abroad and political and mone- tary affairs at home become clearer.

 A. Club House.

A. Club House,
 A great many of the employees of the Howe & stetson company enjoyed themselves immensely at Norris Cove yesterday afternoon being allowed all the privileges of the Y. M. c. A. club house and grounds. The afternoon was spent in playing baseball, volley- ball, swimming and the many other amusements of that place. After spend- ing the time in most delightful man. ner all expressed their sincere gratitude to the Y. M. c. A. for the privileges af- forded to them, and also desire to re- turn there in future years.
 Many people are trying their utmost to support the club house, for it does not overpay itself. Every evening the bowling alley is full. It is the wish of the Y. M. c. IA. to fill up the remaining rooms of the club house as this will help a great deal towards paying ex- penses.
 The Baptist Sunday school will hold it's outing and picnic there to-day un- der MT. Smith.
 The attention of the visitors is called to MT. Taylor's refreshment stand.

MOSQUITOES IN CITIES.
Places Where the Pests Breed in and
 Near Dwellings,.

Places Where the Pests Breed in and
 Near Dwellings.
 That mosquitoes are disease carving under certain conditions has been a generally accepted theory since Dr. l.. O. Howard, the distinguished govern ment entomologist, published his papers on that subject, and it is now regard ed as a matter of good sanitation for a community to get rid of them.One of the employees of the Boston Board of Health is devoting a good deal of his time at present to the work of counter board, takes full cognlzance of the nuisance they are creating. He has given directions for most active cam paign against them. Kerosene oil, one of the best means of extermtnation, Is rels per week at times to suffocate the insects while breeding in the swamps and marshes and stagnant pools. Authorities are in agreement as to the reasons for the intensity of the mos quito nuisance. Dr. L. o. Howard who is on visit to Boston, and Dr. Samuel H. Durgin, of the board of Health, say that the wet weather is the cause of it.The mosquitoes have had ideal weather for breeding, They are capable of developing several genera tions in year when given sufficient access to water, and this summer there was hardly a day when water was not plentiful for them,
 In his remarks about the pestering conditions, Dr. Durgin said that the wrigglers are finding breeding places all over the city, which cannot be reached by any crusade. Cavities in trees, tin cans on the dumps, gutters on the roofs and great multitude of small receptacles have been kept filled with rain water and thus have given the mosquitoes most favorable condi- tions for constant breeding. They could not have had a better season he said.
 Dr. Howard relates instances of mo squitoes having been found breeding in broken bottles which were placed upon the top of stone wall, in flower vases on tables in the house, in open tomato cans on the dumps in Wash ngton, in rain-fflled hollows in apple ard maple trees, often at considerable distance from the ground, in water tanks and even in little cups set url- der the legs of tables for insulation purposes. They will breed in large quantities in seemingly impossible hid ing places where they can find water for a few days, and 1t is said that a very small quantity of water is suffl- cient to keep a place well supplied with them.

DIDN'T BELIEVE.
Tint Coffee Was the Real Trouble.

Some people founder around and take everything that's recommended but f~ nally find that coffee is the real cause of their troubles. An Oregon man says:
 For 25 years 1 was troubled with my stomach I was a steady coffee thinker but didn't suspect that as the cause. I took almost anything which someone else had been cured with but to no good I was very bad last summer and could not work at times,
 "On Dec, 2, 1902, I was taken so bad the doctor said I could not live over 14 hours at the most and I made all prep arations to die I could hardly eat any thing, everything distressed me and I was weak and sick all over. When in that condition coffee was abandoned and was put on Postum, the change in my feelings came quickly after the drink that was poisoning me was re- moved.
 The pain and sickness fell away from me and I began to get well day by day so I stuck to it until now 1 am we'll and strong again, can eat heartily, with no headache, heart trouble or the awful sickness of the old coffee days. I drink all 1 wish of Postum without any harm and enjoy it immensely.
 This seems like strong story but I would refer you to the First Natl Bank, The Trust Banking Company, or any merchant of Grants Pass, Ore, in re- gard to my standing, and I will send a sworn statement of this if you wish. You can also use my name" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.
 Still there are many who persistently fool themselves by saying "Coee don't hurt me" A ten days trial of Postum in its place will tell the truth and many times save life. There's a req son.

where the Line Goes.

Our boundary with Canada winds In and
out at all sorts of angles for the first
1000 miles or so from the Atlantic. II
begins at the ocean and crooks and turns
around Maine, keeping pretty well away
from the st. Lawrence until it touches
that river at the northwestern edge of
New York 1t runs with the river to
Lake Ontario and then winds its way
through the middle of the Great lakes
until IL reaches the land again at the
northeastern end OF Minnesota on Lake
Superior. From here IL winds a little
through the Rainy river country to the
Lake of the Woods and then takes an
almost straight shoot across the prairios
and the Rockies to Puget sound. We
almost had a fight at one time over Puget
sound, the British claiming the island OF
San Juan, which was afterward. by arbi-
tration, awarded to us. Just how long
the whole boundary line is do not know.
but IL must be considerably more than
5000 miles.
