ILL RtPUTE HOUSES

City Administration VIII strictly En-
force Comprehensive Ordinance
Recently Passed.

Roswell, n. NJ. July 2.-(Specia) =.
In keeping with an ordinance pass
ed recently by the city council, every
bawdy house in the city closed last
night at midnight. The ordinance Is
comprehensive one and it is believed
that the present administration will
enforce it strictly.
The movement which resulted in
the determination of the social evil
began with the fight made by the sa-
looms few months ago for lower IL
cense. A mass meeting called to pro-
test against the action of the city
council in lowering the saloon license
also took up the question of bawdy
houses. II is considered here that
the ordinance passed by the council
covers the case thoroughly.

Washington. July 2.-Word was re-

Ambassador Creel will arrive from
Mexico next week. The state depart
ment officials believe by the time the
ambassador reaches here there will be
nothing more than an echo of the
condition, which for time appeared
to be cloud on the Mexican horizon
Reports of American officers charged
with enforcement of the neutrality
law show they acted promptly and
with zeal. Troops were sent to Del
Rio largely for the moral effect, while
the fact that none were sent elsewhere
by General Myer is an indication in
the official mind that they are not
actually needed.

Naturalization of Philip
pine Islands.

Denver, July 2.-Fresh from a visit
yesterday to Bryan at Lincoln. Char
les A Towne of New York arrived to-
Gay and at once placed himself in
tuoch with the leaders of the party
now on the ground.
You can say 1 am in the race for
the vice presidency to stay" said
Towne. And l have every reason to
feel l will be nominated. l have been
assured of the support of large
number of New York delegates and
! believe at the proper time they will
all be for me. From other parts of
the country also comes Information
that my candidacy is acceptable and
pledges of active support"
Towne said he discussed at length
with Bryan the various planks and
particularly the one bearing on the
issuance of writs of injunction by the
federal judges in labor cases. He en-
phatically stated there will be no
straddle and no ambiguity on that
proposition.
THE anti-injunction plank will be
so framed as to meet with favor from
a large majority of working men of
the country" he said.
Another plank which will probably
be incorporated and which he dis
cussed with Bryan will embody the
proposition of international neutraI'-
cation Of the Philippine Islands. Such
policy would avoid the necessity of
tremendous military defensive ex-
renses and give assurance of develop
ment of those islands towards inde-
pendence.
Furthermore" he said, at Is like
ly there will be distinct pronounce
ment that permanent system of de-
pendencies is out of harmony with
our institutions and that the discharge
OF the duties that come to us with the
Philippines not be permitted to defect
US permanently from the course Of
our true national progress"
That, ne said, was in harmony with
Bryan's own views.

Denver, colo, July 2.-The names
of Judge Gray and John A. Johnson
are now crowding to the front in con-
sideration of the vice presidency.
Both are available and the chances
are that one or the other will accept
Officially. neither Gray nor John
son are willing to take second place
on the ticket
Which is all right for their official
attitude Any other attitude would be
equivalent to a withdrawal from the
race for the presidential nomination.
This their friends will not permit.
The latter desire that the names Of
both Johnson and Gray be presented
to the convention, regardless of the
number of delegates who will give
them their votes.
What will happen after the first
ballot is another matter.
Bryans friends, coming here from
Lincoln, report Bryan as hopeful that
Judge George Gray will be willing TO
run with him.
This really puts it up TO Gray. For
what Bryan hints is more important
than what anybody else may shrek
from the housetops. 1t is his conven-
llcu I' 10 WIN as ne pledSSS- 1neIc
are now about 9+7 delegates who
would like nothing better than to be
told by Bryan some way in which
they could serve him.
The candidacy of George Gray,
however, is like the candidacy Of
Hughes at Chicago. Judge Gray could
not take the nomination except at a
considerable personal sacrifice. He
has been a senator and is a federal
Juc ge--a life position. To give up
this even with prospect that he
n ght become vice president would be
more Oi a sacrifice than he feels cali
el upon to make.
Therefore, it is anticipated, and
strongly inumated by those who ought
L knoW-that Judge Gray will make
a statement which will take him out
Of the race, whenever a movement 10
make him fominee becomes strong
enough to make such statement neces-
sary
The case of John A. Johnson on the
other hand, is quite different. At the
propert time it Is believed that he
will accept-if he has the chance-the
vice presidential nomination.
Like Judge Gray. Governor John
son must remain Officially" unwilling

until his name has gone before the

PLEASANT THOUGHTS.

Don't let us talk of wretchedness,
Don't let us wallow in our woe,
Don't let us drivel DER distress,
Don't let US wander to and fro
Amid the mire and mud below,
But let us rise on joyful wings
Into the golden sunlight's glow:
Let's think and talk of pleasant things
Don't let US clamor for redress;
Don't let us deem soul our foe;
Instead of cursing, let US bless:
And never let US gloat or crow
Ger some ones trouble; let us show
What perfect peace our viewpoint brings
To all who after goodness go;
Let's think and talk Of pleasant things!
Let's talk of trouble less and less:
To anger let us be more slow;
Let's strive more patience to possess,
And moro compassionate let's grow;
And cheerful word or smile bestow.
And you can quell the scorn that stings ;
This duty to ourselves we owe:

Not the Same Thing as the Process
Usually Followed.
The proper method Of gargling is
thus described by writer In the Med
ical Record:
''The patient (at first under the guild
ance Of the physlcian) should sit we'll
back in a chair, take swallow Of wa
ter In the mouth and bend the head
as far back as possible.
"Now he must protrude the tongue
from the mouth (the tip Of the tongue
may be grasped with a handkerchief)
and In this posture with protruding
tongue he must try to swallow the wa
ter. The physician should control the
patients vain efforts-for 1t Is impos-
sible to swallow under such circum-
stances.
1.-THE patient has the sensation 90 IL
he actually bad swallowed the water.
Now he must start to 9argle. to exhale
air slowly. One can see plainly the
bubbling OF the duid In the wide open
pharynx
After gargling thus for a while the
patient 10 ordered to close the mouth
and quickly thrown the head and body
forward. Thereby al the Auid 10 forced
through tlse choanoe and nostrils, wash.
Ing the throat and nose from behind
and expelling all accumulatioHs thai
had been present, with great force.

times, an the first trial 10 noe always

act that must DO learned.

ton, 90 tho patient will assure you, Ia
that Of great relief mot had by any
other method. II will bs wise for IL
practitioner to try the method first on
himself. Even small children who art
at all clever learn tho method readily
and rather enjoy II.

new one, but as 1t seems, quite forgot
