James Minnick. agent for the Provi-
dence Society for Organizing Charity,
says the plan he adopted here for placing
the society upon substantial working
basis Is To be taken up by a general body
which has appointed a field secretary.
whose duty II will be To travel about the
United States and assist local societies i'm
organizing for effective charitable work
The field secretary was i'm this city
few days ago, looked over Mr.. Minnlck's
card system and books. studied the de-
tails OF the plan upon which the society
does Its work and requested that he be
supplied with duplicates OF all the cards
and papers used. together with all other
Information which will be OF value To him
In prosecuting his work declaring II the
most perfect system that he had found
and adding that he would recommend 1t
for general adoption
For the purpose of comparison" Mr..
Mlnnick said, ''it Is necessary to look TO
other cities which are In the class I'm
which Providence is rated. Washington
has a population OF 100000. which is large
ly of a floating character There the So
ciety for Organizing Charity handles $50
cases a year OF all kinds. Minneapolis.
which is about the same size as Prow-
dence, counting population, has about &0o
cases annually. Providence with n popu-
lation OF practically 10000, should there
fore be expected TO care FOR 300 applicants
for assistance.
This number would not. by any man
ner of means, include the work 20 be done
by tho social service organization, which
takes into account the general social con-
dition OF the city. and which by advice
and direction assists persons 60 make bet

New York, Dec 23.--Thomas w. Law
son OF Boston. who on last Tuesday
called on President Roosevelt at the
White House. and who subsequently
said he would probably make state

viii, according to an interview publish
ed today. soon launch new political
party.
Its candidates for president and vice
president, according to the plan as an
nounced, viii be Theodore Roosevelt and
Governor John A. johnson OF Mime
sofa In his formal announcement Mr.
Lawson avoids any direct statement
that his chosen candidates have acqui-
osced i'm his political program.
1T matters not a whit TO me, said
Mr. Lawson, whether President Roose-
Welt approves or the new party or not,
whether he consents TO run as It's presi-
Dental candidate or openly refuses TO
do so.
"He Will be our candidate just the
same, and by the vote OF the people will
be compelled 10 complete the job he has

PROVIDENCE SYSTEM TO
Be GENERALLY ADOPTED

we never heard OF before. There have
been 2S3 cases brought to our attention
thus far this month, which Is within a
few OF the total number annually consid-
cred by the society I'm the beginning of
its work
"A natural cause for this increase OF
work which is put upon the society at this
time is the disturbance I'm business circles,
which has resulted In many being de-
prived OF their regular employment, but
It Is difficult to determine what part OF
the increase is not due to circumstances
over which the applicants have no con-
troll At any rate. the increase shows that
the society, practically I'm two years time.
has been forced 10 raise its volume of
work by about eight times.
"In 19O0-0l the society dealt with 22
cases of distress and had relief fund
OF $lSSl. Not until 190i-0 did the number
of cases exceed 300, when the contribu-
tions were but $3.50 The next year there
were 6oa cases. and the contributions were
1856. The next year the society dealt
with 1876 cases, so, you see. we are rapidly
approaching the 500 mark

NAVIGATION
PRECAR|OUS OFF
NOVA SCOTIA

Yarmouth. n. S., Dec. 9.-The captains
and pilots OF ocean steamers running
into ports in the maritime provinces are
bringing in reports with each trip that
the buoys and other aids TO navigation
along the western shore OF Nova SEQ
tia are in such a demoralized condition
as To make navigation i'm the vicinity
most precarious. Capt. Loran J. McKin-
non. of the steamer Senlac and Capt,
John Crowel pilot OF the same vessel,
declare that the present state OF analrs
Is the worst In their long experience as
navigators through Nova Scotian waters,
and have announced their intention OF
Immediately directing the attention OF
the authorities to II.
Can't. MciKinnon In discussing the sit
uation. which he characterized as being
"fraught with great danger 10 life and
property" said that between Halifax ana
Yarmouth there Is hardly buoy at lts
proper position. and that several OF them
are missing altogether. 80
The harbor OF Lockeport, which is dlf-
fcult of access under the best conditions,
has been left without navigation aids, by
the carrying away OF the three Duoys
which were attached 10 the service there.
Little Hope, a conspicuous danger point,
has been deprived of it's gas and auto
matte buoy by being carried away py
some vessel, and the buoy which Was sta
toned at Brazil Rock has gone TO sea
The absence OF this buoy was noticed at
the time Of the loss OF the steamer Kill
dona. but has not been replaced since.
Other buoys which are missing are those
which were placed at Blonderock the
Falrway buoy off Pubrico harbor, the
two off Brier Island TO the westward OF
Yarmouth, and that of Liverpool harbor
is not working in proper order.

BELIEVES NEW MEXICO
HAS UNTOLD RICHES

New York. July 2.-E. p. Earle,
president of the Nipissing Mines COM
pany, has become interested in the
Tri-Bullion Smelling and Develop
ment company of New Mexico. 1t is
understood that the interest acquired
by President Earle in the Trl-Bullion
property Is substantial one, al
though it's exact extent has not been
given out.
This is in line with the action of
many other pioneer mining men who
were first in the Cobalt field and
have reaped good returns from their
Investments there.
They look upon New Mexico as the
coming bonanza section, and declare
that its stores of rich mineral are un-
surpassed by any other state in the
union.
The Kelly mine Of the Tri-Bullion
company, which Is i'm an advanced
stage Of development has shown up
particularly We'll and mining men
generally regard it as one of the most
pro's1sing mining properties In that
section OF tbs country. II Is under
the management and control Of prac-
teal mining men.
The ri-Bullion Smelling and De-
Velopment company is preparing TO
erect big smelter in New Mexico.

Santa Fe, N. M, July 2. Specially
superintendent Marion Littrell Is
In charge of the territorial peniten-
tiary today and things are running
smoothly. Arthur Trelford, removed
by the acting governor. has left the
prison but is still in Santa Fe. He
has not made his plans known.
Those in position to know, how
ever, say he is preparing to visit the
late governor, II. j. Hagerman, after
which he will go to his home In
Leavenworth, Kansas.
Assistant Superintendent Sample,
under Trelford. is now at the Palace
hotel in this city. Sample came to
New Mexico from Kansas where he
had six or seven years in prison work.
1t Is understood that he will also re-
turn to Kansas in the near future.
Both Sample and Trelford will
probably visit Albuquerque before the
end of the week.
Yard Master Resigns.
Nick Delaney, who was yard mas
ter under Trelford, resigned today
and his place has been temporarily
filled by superintendent Llttrell with
another prison employe.
Several other designations will be
In the hands of the new superintend-
ent in few days and a number Of
new employees will be given places at
the prison.
The invoice of goods at the peni-
tentiary has been completed. The
prisoners were checked up late yes
terday afternoon.
26S COnvicts I'm prison.
According to the present roll there
are now 26S convicts IN Ike prison,
twenty-five being employed on the
scenic highway at various points.
There has been considerable inter-
est manifested among the convlots.
They were not fully informed as to
the events taking place and some OF
them knew little or nothing about
the change.
The word went the rounds by de-
grees, however, and secretly, the con-
yicts rejoiced over the removal of
Trelford.
The truth spread pretty rapidly
when they were given enough to eat
today.
1t is believed here that Trelford
Will not make any further attempt
to contest his removal in the courts
but will leave New Mexico with the
best grace possible and a badly dam
aged record as a prison official.
