which arrived at this port Monday
from Shields, brought Capt. Harper

his crew left the schooner in a life
boat and after four hours were picked

CHANGED HER RESIDENCE.
Mrs Eddy, Christian Science Leader,
Makes an Unexpected Move.

Concord, N H. Mrs. Mary G..
Baker Eddy, founder and head of
the First Church of Christ, Scientist,
left her home in this city Sunday and
by circuitous route in a special
train went to Brookline to a house
recently purchased by the Christian
Science denomination. Mrs. Eddy was
accompanied by her secretary, Calvin
A. Frye; Archibald McLennan, one of
the trustees for Mrs. Eddy's property;
Rev. Irving C. Tomlinson, a Christian
Science reader" and dozen other
men and women of the Christian Sci
ence belief. Mrs. Eddy will reside in
Brookline permanently.
Mrs. Eddy's departure caused the
greatest surprise among the people of
this city, very few of whom suspected
that such move was contemplated.
Investigation showed that a car load
of furniture and one of Mrs. Eddy's
carriages was shipped to Brookline
last week. Prof. Herman S. Herring,
first reader of the Church of Christ,
Scientist, in this city, and his wife
have been left in charge of her house
here.

day set the trial of the Standard Oil

tried before Judge Lands and in

sATTLED WITH HUGE WAVES.
Terrific Storms Were Encountered by
Steamers that Arrived at New
York Recently.

New York City. - Tales of a
shipwreck at sea and possible loss of
life are the echoes of the recent Sc
we're storms that were brought to port
Sunday by belated and tempest tossed
steamships.
Fears that an unknown three-maSted
schooner and her crew have been lost
in the storm off the Delaware capes
are expressed by officers of the steam
er Manhattan, which limped into har-
Dor from Baltimore. The schooner
was seen struggling in the trough of
the sea off the Delaware capes and
when the Manhattan, which had been
blown off her course, neared the To-
cality where the schooner was last
sighted riding out the storm, many
pieces of a wrecked vessel and guam
titles of railroad ties were seen float
ing in the water.
The Italian steamer San Giovanni
reached here Sunday with Capt Morse
and the crew of five of the oil barge
Matansas, which, with two other
barges, broke adrift during the storm
and for hours was at the mercy of the
waves, which wrenched off the rudder
and opened her seams. The Matansas
was filling rapidly when the Italian
merchantmen hove in sight and res.
cued Capt. Morse and his crew. The
barges Fall River and Grafton are still
missing.
The battered superstructures of
transatlantic liners arriving Sunday
were mute evidence of the assaults of
the raging seas encountered in the
storm, while incoming vessels in the
coaStwiSe trade all report inceSsant
battles with waves that kept decks in a
smother of spume and knocked angri.
ly at battened matches.

NEW CEMENT MADE
JAPANESE FIND USE FOR VOL
cANic ASHES.
Quantities Already Exported-Discov,
cry Strikes One More American
Product from the List Of
Japan's Necessaries.

The saving Japanese, who are forcets
to play close game with life because
OF the narrowness of their island and
the tremendous yearly increase in the
population, have learned to take cun.
ming advantage of every byproduct Of
nature.
They rake the sea beaches for sea-
weed to use to burn into charcoal.
NOW they are turning the many and
troublesome volcanoes to good pur>
pose by manufacturing the volcanic
ASH into cement. To them belongs the
credit OF discovering that the scoria
that sweeps down from volcano vents
and sears the neighboring countryside
may at least be tolerated. IL 1t has to,
come, as an economic asset
G. III. Scidmore, American consul as
Nagasaki, has reported to the depart.
ment of commerce and labor at WASH
ington that Japanese company or
ganized to work volcanic ash into ce
ment had already paid dividend Of
nine per cent. for the first half year
on capital of 100000 yen and that
1t had more orders in sight than n
could fill. The Mitsu Bishi and Ka.
wasald dockyards, the two great
privately owned dockyards of the em.
pire; the government naval yards 40
Sasebo and the Wakamatsu Iron
Foundry Company were all being sup.
piled with the new ash cement.
The government had recently
granted a contract for $4,000 bags OF
the stuff to be used in the new har-
Dor works at Keelung. Quantities
have already been exported to north
China, Formosa and Korea.
The ash, which is obtained from two
of the great craters in the so-caIIed
Japanese Alps. running through tho
main island of Hondo near the west
coast, is ground and screened at the
new company's factory, and because
of the nature of the composition n
needs nothing but water to become
very good cement. One asset the new
company can count upon-the supply
of the crude material is ihexhausti-
bic, and the more that is carted away
the more land will be uncovered for
the struggling farmer.
The discovery of the new cement
strikes one more American product
from the list of our exports which had
been necessaries for Japan. The Port
land cement manufactured in Oregon
and Washington was the only cement
in use in Japan before the keen Japs
turned the scoris into a paying propo,
sition.

THE THAW TRIAL.

The Thaw trial was adjourned be-
cause witnesses from Europe were de-
1ayed by the Atlantic coast storm.
Justice Bowling decided to limit each
side in the Thaw trial to three expert
witnesses and two of the defense's trio
were heard as to the facts of the men
tai and physical examinations tney
made of Harry Thaw in the Tomos
prison.
In the Thaw trial Anthony Com
stock told of letters he received from
Thaw concerning Stanford Whites
apartments, and the defendants
mother testified as to insanity in the
Thaw family.
District Attorney Jerome's long and
severe cross-examination of Mrs. Eve
lyn Nesbit Thaw at the trial OF her
husband came to an end and the at
torneys for the defense placed in eVl-
dence letter written by the defend'
ant in the fall of 1903 which COM
pletely corroborated the claim that
the girl who was to become his wire
did tell him the story of her relations
with Stanford White much as she has
related it upon the stand at this and
the former trial.
Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw told her
story for the second time. The repe-
tition lacked the vitality of the first
recital, but the great crowd in the
courtroom, which Justice Dowhng
had refused to exclude, listened In
tently. District Attorney jerome then
subjected the witness to a pitiless
cross-eXamination.
