DROWNED IN BUCKET.
SAD AND PECULIAR DEATH OF
LITTLE ROY SHAW NEAR
ROSE HILL.

Rose Hill, July "A sad death oc-
Cured Saturday afternoon in the fam
lily of Fred Shaw and wife, north OF
this place. Their infant son, Roy
Hadley Shaw, aged one year and TWEEN
ty-two days, fell into a pail Of water
and was drowned. The baby was the
youngest child and the only boy in a
family of four children, and the grief
of the parents is intense. The baby
had left the room where the mother
was sewing, and had strayed out upon
the porch. A pail containing small
quantity of water. not over four or
five inches, stood within baby's reach.
The mother missed the child not more
than five minutes and went to look for
him. She found that he had fallen
forward head first into the pail in
such way that he could not release
himself, and the little body was quite
dead when she picked it up. The
funeral was held at three o'clock Sun
day afternoon, July l.

WORK PLEASES PRESIDENT
coMMENDs CONGRESS FOR RE-
SUITS ACHIEVED.
Says Legislation Is Along Lines Of
Real Constructive Craftsmanship
of Practical Kind.

Washington, July 2. President
Roosevelt, on the adjournment of the
congress, dictated statement concern
ing the work accomplished during the
session just concluded. He says that
he present congress has done more
substantive work along the lines of
real constructive craftsmanship" than
mas been accomplished at any session
Of congress with which the president
is familiar. He says that the men OF
genuine patriotism have right to feel
"a profound satisfaction in the entire
course of this congress-,
In the session that has just closed"
says the president in his statement,
the congress has done more substan-
tive work for good than any congress
has done at any session since became
familiar with public affairs. The legis-
larioa has been along the lines of real
constructive craftsmanship of the most
practical and efficient type, and bill
after bill has been enacted into law
which was of an importance so great
that IL is fair to say that the enact
ment OF any one of them alone would
have made the session memorable;
such, for instance, as the railroad rate
bill, the meat inspection measure, the
pure food bill, the bill for free alcohol
in the arts, the consular reform bill,
canal legislation, the joint
statehood bill and the naturalization
bill,
Il certainly have no disposition to
blink what there is of evil in our So
cial, industrial or political life OF to-
day, but it seems to me that the men
Of genuine patriotism who genuinely
wish well to their country have the
right to feel profound satisfaction in
the entire course of this congress.
Il would not be afraid to compare its
record with that of any previous con-
gress in our history, not alone for the
wisdom, but for the disinterested high
which has controlled its
action.
1T is noteworthy that not a single
which the closest scrutiny
could warrant us in calling of doubtful
propnety has been enacted; and, on
the other hand, no influence of any
kind has ayailed to prevent the enact
ment of the laws most vitality neces-
sary to the nation at this time"

Des Moines, July 2.-According to
cigar men throughout the city, the
revenues of the different stores dur

This is due, it is claimed, to the clos
ing up of the slot machines by Justice
Livingston. AS a result, many OF the
small stores viii close up, and others
will consolidate because of the reduc-
ton in their receipts of the business.

FRIDAY, November 10, 1905.-This is
the thirteenth voyage Of the Siberia,
and something has happened: While
leaving Honolulu at 5 o'clock this after
noon, one of the ships screws became
tangled in the chain Of buoy, and
we are now lying a mile off Honolulu,
trying to find out what the damage is.
A boat load of officers went over the
side just now and tugs are coming out
fl ON the town, the lights of which are
plainly visible. The ship was compel
led to make a complete and very short
turn in leaving Honolulu; the harbor
is small and the channel shallow. A
tug was at each end of the ship turn
ing it; I was on deck with the other
passengers when heard a man on the
tug nearest me sing out: Look out
for your screwr Then several sharp
blasts from the tug were blown ana
the ships engines were shut off. But
presently they started again, slowly,
and we proceeded out of the harbor
with great caution. After we We're
mile or more away, a tug came rae
ing after US with some word about the
buoy chain, whereupon the engines OF
the ship were stopped again, and we
have been lying here ever since; two
hours. We may remain mere untlI
morning; we may proceed at any mo-
ment. There is all sorts of gossip
about the accident. Probably it does
not amount to much, but it may be
necessary to send down divers, which
will take time, etc.
