in q foreign country would be neither safe nor profitable
 Received Scant Consideration.
 The claims were presented to Nen- ezuela by Mir. Russell and the corre- spondenee shows they received scant consideration, On that account MT. Root addressed another letter to Mir. Russell dated June 21, 1907, calling at tention to the demands for an amicable adjustment of the controversies by means of international arbitration, but that the justification must be great and convincing.
 Commenting upon Venezuelas failure to take cognizancc of the American note, Mir Root in this letter said:
 Curt and Contcmptuous.
 The answer the Venezuelan gov eernment makes to these demands practically refuses consideration. 1t is practically confined to a simple de- nial of the correctness of the attitude of this government. The curt and contomptuous way in which, 1t ignores or dismisses the serious and respectful representations of the United States produces painful impression of in- difference and disrespect. With pa tiencc, however, which has character- lzed the actions of the government of the unlled States in the past in all it's relations to Venezuela, tho depart ment of saGte again nstructs you to reiteratc the views expressed in the instructions of February 2S last and to make the following brief reply to each of tho points raised by tho mem orandum of Venezuela" The claims are again reviewed, and Mir. Root con cludes his letter as follows:
 As to each and every enc of the aforesaid eases in case you chall not receive q prompt and favorable reply from the government of Venezuela you will expressly and formally pro- pose to the government of Venezuela that the claims against that govern ment in respect thereof be submitted to arbitration before the permanent court of arbitration at The Hague, or If Venezuela shall prefer, before tri- bunal of three jursts. not members of The Hague tribunal to De selected in the usual manner"
 On February IS, 1908, Secretary Root dispatched a cablegram tn Min ister Russell lnstructing him to ascer- tain whether the refusal of Nenezue- Ia to accept our proposal of arbitra- ton is designed to apply to each and every one of the tiyc claims and if she is ready to arbtrate any of these claims. which ones she is wiling to arbitrate"

Life Saved by Cuticura.

"I have been treated by doctors for
twenty-five years for a bad case OF
eczema on my leg. They did their best,
but failed to cure it. My doctor had
advised me to have my leg cut off. At
this time my leg was peeled from the

flesh, and l had to walk on crutches.

After the first two treatments the

Effect Of Serving on Grand Jury.

There Is one sure way to get q
man interested in the proceedings OF
the criminal courts" said the gray.
headed man, land that is to put him
on a grand jury. Just let man once
serve the public in that capacity and
thenceforward he becomes an inde'
fatigable student Of the criminal rec
ords. The result of his experience is,
in a way, inevitable. Naturally any
man with a spark Of curiosity about
him is anxious to know the outcome
OF the trials Of the persons he has
found indictments against. In fol-
lowing these cases through the vari
ous courts he acquires an interest
in judicial proceedings that really
never dies. IN. Y. Sun.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory II the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, 1t is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fneness Of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste Of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear.
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because Of its great
er strength than other makes.

Another Rlackhand OUTRAGE.

Brownsville, Pa, Dec. 29.-The
home of R. Frediani, an Italian, was
wrecked early Saturday by an explo-
sion of dynamite. The entire front of
the house was blown out, but neither
Frediani nor members of his family
were injured. Recently he received
letters from an alleged Blackhand So
ciety threatening death If money was
not paid the society and authorities
believe the Blackhand is responsible
for the outrage.

The extraordinary popularity of fine
white goods this summer makes the
choice of Starch a matter of great i'm
portance. Defiance Starch, being free
from all injurious chemicals, is the
only one which is safe to use on fine
fabrics It's great strength as stiffen-
er makes half the usual quantity of
Starch necessary, with the result of
perfect finish, equal to that when the
goods were new.

SAANGHA|ED BY british
A San Francisco Lad Stranded In
Pittsburg Tells Wonderful
Story Of Adventure.
NEARLY CIRCLED GLOBE IN TWO YEARS
After Working His Way From San
Francisco to Norfolk, Va, ForcibIy
Taken on English Collier to Brazil
Complains Of Treatment by Ameri-
can Consul.

Pittsburg, Dec. 29.-Howard Ray,
15-year-old lad, on his way to San
Francisco, hoping to find his home and
his parents, whom he left before the
earthquake, told wonderful story of
adventure as a sailor, Of being shang-
haied by the crew of British ship
and of being mistreated by United
States consul in Brazil to whom he
applied for relief, in the police station
here Saturday night when he applied
for lodging.
When 13 years old, he said, he
shipped as cabin boy at San Fran
cisco on the steamship Chile, bound
for Capetown. AS cabin boy and as
ordinary seaman, often performing the
full duties of grown man, he worked
his way on different ships to Sydney,
Melbourne and to many other points,
finally landing at Rio Janeiro, Brazil,
where he was seized with desire to
return home. He shipped on boat
bound for Norfolk, Va, and reached
that port without adventure and was
given his pay for the voyage and his
discharge.
Walking through the streets of Nor
folk, he says, he was suddenly seized
by sailors from the British coal steam
er Titalia, and carried aboard, where
he was KEEP prisoner for several days
until the ship sailed. Then he was
released and put to work as sailor.
The ship was short of men, and he
was forcibly taken on as recruit. In
the course of time he was again In
Rio Janeiro, where he complained to
the United States consul. That Of
fetal, the lad AYERS, gave him curt
treatment, hushed up the fact of his
having been shanghaied, after several
conferences with the British consul,
and finally refused to assist him to
get back to the United States because
he could not produce proof that he
was an American citizen. The British
consul, the lad says, secured him a
chance to work his way to New York,
where he arrived few days ago. He
stole his way to Altoona on freight
trains, he says, and the authorities at
the latter place gave him uansporta-
ton to Pittsburg. He hopes to be
given help here and at other points
that will take him to San Francisco.
Whether he will find his parents there
he does not know He has heard moth
ing from them since the earthquake.
Pittsburg authorities probably will
give him some help.

The Most Suspicious Ever.

Henry Clews, the banker and au-
thor, was talking at the Union club in
New York about a certain financier.
"No wonder the man is so success
full" said Mr.. Clews. HE is the most
careful, the most suspicious fellow l
ever heard of. In fact, he reminds me
of a Staffordshire farmer my father
used to tell Of.
1T was said of this farmer that,
whenever he bought herd Of sheep,
he examined each sheep closely to
make sure that 1t had no cotton in it."
