M0TCn.
A Noted Explorer.
Perhaps there is no Englishman
who has covered so large a part of
south central Africa as Sir Henry. He
Is counted an explorer over in Eng
land, and his government has also
counted him as among the best of it's
pioneers in the extension of hazy
boundaries in. the little known Afri-
can places.
y Yet. explorer though he is, author
: E01:"s Of travel and diplomatic
as,,, cttr range places at times when
most W. .te men stayed away from
Just such places, Sir Henry says so
little about himself and so much
about things seemingly of far less in
tefest that he must be set down as
modest. He is small man physically,
and the modesty sets more easily upon
HIM than 1t would If he looked the
part of the stage hero Of thousand.
adventures.
Journey Into Forests.
Sir Henry was asked If his forth
coming call upon the president had
anything to do with Mr.. Roosevelt's
plans for the itinerary of the African
TRIP.
ooh. can't say as to that" he re-
piled. "Of course, when / call upon
your president Twill be in the way of
telling him some things that any
sportsman would like to know before
visiting Uganda and the Nile country.
! will tell him, for example, just what
kind of country he can expect, what
game there Is and where 1t can best
be found.
Suppose say that this would be
the ideal trip that would take-mind
you don't say that the president will
follow the same course. But this is
what would do. l would take the
railroad, believe. First the railroad
leads through rich country Of forest
There is some shooting there, of
course, but that is too well known for
a sportsman who. really wants to go
somewhere where other sportsmen
don't CO."
An Ideal Trip.
Sir Henry said that the ideal trip he
was mapping out would call for re-
turn to the railroad after dallying in
the kenya forests, and further pro-
gress along by trains to the Nanchi
plateau that borders the northern end
Of Lake Victoria Nyanza.

OAKLAND AFTER
FREAK RECORDS

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 2.-When it
comes to freakish playing no club in
the country has anything on the Oak
land club in the State League. The
tail-enders of the outlaw organization
have hung up many kinds of records
this season. In the first place, they
startled the sporting world by losing
twenty-eight consecutive games, which
is said to be a worlds record. They
also went fifty-two innings in success
sion without ever reaching the home
plate, and they probably would have
kept this pace up if the whitewash
hadn't run out. At Stockton they
chased the ball in a single inning for
thirty-eight minutes before being able
to retire the champions. An even do
zen games wer lost in row by a sin
gle run and thirty twirlers have so
far occupied the mound for them. H.
Colby, one of their pitchers, was on
the rubber for twenty-four innings in
one afternoon.
The team has won only four games
out of sixty-nine played and has an
average of .O5S. For consistency the
| Oaks cannot be beaten.

ADDRESS
BUSINESS MEN

Consul General Mason Mitchell, here
on the way to his new post in Samoa,
told the Chamber of Commerce yester-
day a great many thingc about the in
terror of western China. He has been
stationed in the province of Szechuen
for three years.
The Chinese boycott on American
goods was largely the work of Ameri-
can manufacturers in the coast cities
of China. Those who initiated Ame-
rican goods and duplicated American
trademarks and labels in the Orient
were exclusively Japanese.
Mr.. Mitchell praised the industry and
perseverance of the Chinese. Western
China is little known to the outside
world. It's interior is accessible chiefly
by rivers, though a railroad system
is projected. Other countries maintain
gunboats to ensure respect for their
business men, but the United States is
without a gun in a territory having
100000 of people.
There is a liability to trouble in
China from the revolutionary party
whose leaders are men educated
abroad, and as before in such case for
| eigners would be likely to suffer. Mr..
Mitchell gave some facts regarding
| Thibet, which borders on Szechuen
| province. In that country capital pun
ishment is administered by pushing the
victim over a precipice 1000 feet high.
A disagreeable thing in Szechuen was
that the place of execution was direct
| ly behind the American consulate. II
was not pleasant on going out that
way to come acr SIS recapitated bodies.
A vote of thanks was passed to- MIR.
Mitchell by the Chamber.
Vice President J. P. Cooke, presid-
ing then introduced Percy Hunter,
who spoke on the scheme of coopera-
ton between Australia and Hawaii In
the tourist business.
! A resolution of coincidence address,
| ed to the widow Of the late T. Rain
Walker was passed 1t related that he
was actively connected with the Ho-
nolulu Chamber of Commerce for many
years as a valued member, and as its
president; that in his death this Cham
Der of Commerce has suffered griev-
GUS loss; that the life of the deceased,
, in this community as merchant and
citizen, tended to raise the standard
of commercial and civic integrity and
honor, as well as that Of nobility or
religious sentiment and Christian infu-
ence in this community; and that the
deceased thus endeared himself to a
large circle of friends by those quail
ties which are fundamental to true and
lasting friendships.
A. F., Knudsen, ]. w. Waldron, z. K.
Myers and ]. Harris Mackenzie were
elected as members.

SAN FRANCISCO POLICE PREPARE
CAMPAIGN ON CLAlRVOYANTS
WHO ROB DUPES.

SAN FRANCISCO, October 4.-Tran-
silent clairvoyants who fit from city to
city, operating under the intelligent di-
rection of blue book which catalo-
CUES for them the susceptible in each
community, are to receive short shrift
from the San Francisco police. Chief
of Police Buggy has received so many
complaints recently from persons who
have fallen victims to the arts of the
dishonest spiritualists that he has de-
cided to drive them from the city.
AS a preliminary the clerk of the
board of police commissioners has been
instructed 10 write to Los Angeles for
a copy of the ordinance of the southern
city which applies to clairvoyants. The
terms of that law are severe and by
means of it the police there have been
able with fair success to keep them out
of mischief.
While there are permanent mediums
in the city whose work is not above
suspicion the chief trouble is caused by
the travelling spiritualists who appear
and disappear in community with all
the facility of their "materialized"
spirits These peripathetic members of
the cult work together on an extensive
plan. A catalogue or "blue book"
containing the names of persons who
are interested in spiritualism and kim
dred phenomena is circulated among
this group, and from it they locate VIC
tins and plan their campaigns of graft
when they visit new city. They
''land" several rich dupes and then
leave the community, while trailing
after them is a wake of complaints
filed with the police department.

Our Debt a National Menace.

Justice Brewer, of tbs United States Supreme
Court, in Leslie's Weedly.
i do not rejoice In the spectacle Of
this nation covered with municipal
bonds. The single city OF New York
owes S421, 100000 We are mani.
testing a iondness for military and
naval prowess. We are building a
large navy, and, while crying "Peacel
Peacel' are still preparing for war.
Then there Is the food OF railroad
bonds. No wonder we have the great
est railroad systems in the world.
The country Is flooded with railroad
bonds. The reckless issuance OF
these bonds has not only burdened
the future, but has lessensd the sense
OF moral responsibility OF the pres
emit. There Is q univers al casting OF
the burden on those who are TO come
after US. Such creation Of indebted
ness can only cast burden upon
posterity and obtain for us the
things which must be paid for by the
toll and bounty Of those who can
receive little or no benefit from the
debt. they have to bear. This is an
Injustice.

Mis- souri, School With One Pupil

Grant City Mo, Times.
Worth county has a school district
that we believe cannot be duplicated
In the entire State.
1t Is district 2, 65, 33, Green Town
ship. There are only three children
OF school age In the district, and only
one OF them Is attending the home
sshool, the other two attending else
where. The teacher is paid $32 a
month to teach this one pupil, and
there is no doubt about the child
getting good instruction. A district
that will keep school open for the
benefit OF one child and pay a teach
er $32 per month must certainly be
loyal to the cause OF popular educa
ton.
