WAR MATERIALS
In Great Quantity Are Being Assem-
bled for Shipment to the
Philippines.

San Francisco, Dec. 29.--The largest
consignment OF war material ever sent
to the Philippines in two vessels is
assembled on transport dock ready for
transportation the coming week. The
greater part Of the material, amount
Ing to 1000 tons and including $780,
900 rounds OF cartridges and vast
quantities OF commissary supplies,
boilers, wagons and other freight Is
to be carried by the Pacific mail
steamer China sailing Tuesday. The
remainder consisting OF 1900 new
Springfield rifles and mucn equipment
for submarine mines as well as a full
cargo OF general war supplies, will go
on the transport Sherman, January 6.
IL is notable that the forwarding OF
such a vast amount OF ammunition
and SO many extra supplies is made at
time when dispatches are received
from Washington regarding steps
taken TO fortify all important points
on the coast OF Luzon, particularly
subig bay and the entrance to Manila
harbor. The mining OF these places
Ii said TO be planned on a scale that
will preclude a possibility OF any war
vessel entering the harbors against

TYLER'S DAUGHTER
Dies at Advanced Age In Washington
at Home Of Aged Southern
Gentlewomen, Z

Washington Dec. ga lady OF the
Eeh regime passed away yesterday in
Washington, the scene OF her social
ascendancy in the days before the
civil war. She was Mrs. Letitia Tyler
Semple, daughter of President John
Tyler, by his first wife. Her death
occurred at the Louise Home, an in
stitutlon for aged Southern gentlewo-
men, established by w. w. Corcorai,
Washington's millionaire philanthro-
pist, as a memorial TO his wife and
daughter. Yesterday was the ami
versary Of tn elate Mr.. Corcoran's
birth.
Mrs. Semple was born 81 years ago.
She was married to Paymaster Semple,
OF the navy before her father became
president. She spent much time at the
white house during her mothers III
ness, but when her mother died he
returned to her home, the famous Col
onial palace In Williamsburg. From
there she was called, when the period
of mourning had passed, to became the
mistress of the white house and dis.
pensed the hospitality of the mansion
until 1874. when President Tyler took
a second wife, the beautiful Miss Julia
Gardiner, of Gardeners Island, New
York.
Although bowed by years and Illness
Mrs. Semple never lost the manner
and appearance OF the grande dame
She was tall and slender of dlgnified
bearing, and had expressive eyes of
dark shade. Her snow white hair was
worn In picturesque curls OF the style
If 60 years ago. Friends OF Mrs.
detected in her features
strong resemblance 10 her father. Her
mind was alert and active even in her
ast days. For more than a dozen years
she was crippled by paralysis and once
oniy essayed to leave the Louise home, |
o attend social function. That was
n 1886, when she was guest at the |
OF President Cleveland and |
Miss Frances Folsom.

through three terms, was responsible y
for these conditions, was defeated by
a man running on written and signed
platform calling for a clean up.

centrate her saloons in the business
center. which would reduce their num-

Outside Of these two cities, the
county will be strongly for county op-

for such b measure. Under present
conditions Lorain would also, but II
the saloons are brought within the
law the vote here will be doubtful.

GIGANTIC METEOR

Washington, Dec. pa grant from

culiar. large crater formed depression
In the desert near Canyon Diablo,
Arizona. II is nearly three quarters
OF a mile across and about. six hun
dred feet deep. Since 1t was brought
to the notice Of men OF science this
hole has caused much dissension,
some believing 1t to be an extinct vol
cano and others to be tue record of
impact OF a huge meteor which struck
the earth centuries ago. In speaking
OF his conclusions, Prof. Merrill leans
toward the meteor theory.
The crater" he states, could not
have been formed by any volcanic
action for all the phi ,nomena have a
superficial nature. Some three hun
dred feet OF everything limestone ana
nve hundred feet OF sandstone have
been thoroughly shattered as though
by some powerful blow and the quartz
particles In the sandstone In part

course absolutely preciudes the forma-
ton of crater by any deep seated
agency. and ! have been forced To con-
slider an orisin by impact Of stellar

An exhaustive study of the known
metorc falls shows that there is no
record OF any fall comparable with
this. The nearest approach to the
Canyon Diablo occurrence happened
In Knyhsnya, Hungary, I'm 1865, when
. 900 pound stone penetrated the
ground to the depth Of II feet.

well, is that jefferson county woull
