Drowned in Puget Sound Is
Recovered

SEATTLE, July 2.-Ensign McKain,
heading searching party from the
United States armored cruiser Penn

the body of A. Clark, sailor on the
cruiser, who was drowned in a pc

miles south of Seattle.

sudden squall struck the boat, and
fearing that it was going to capsize,
Clark jumped into the water. The
boat did not capsize, but Clark sank
before aid could reach him.
Clark's home is at Bremerton. He is
the second member of the Pennsyl-
vania's crew to meet with accidental
death since the cruiser came to the
sound the latter part of May. The
other was BoatsWain Alexander Hamil-
ton of Brooklyn. N. Y, who was fatally
injured when the anchor chain broke
as the ship was casting her anchor the
night she entered the harbor.

BIDS FOR DISPOSAL OF
GARBAGE AGAIN DELAYED
Board of Public Works Must Wait for
Printed Forms Before Asking
for Figures

Still more delay is necessary before
bids can be asked for the disposal of
the city's garbage. This time it is up
to the city attorney, and on the length
of time he takes to furnish the board OF
public works with certain required
forms will depend largely the time that
must eIapse before bids can be secured.
The garbage specifications provide
that hotel and restaurant men may
take care of their own garbage, sell 1t
to hog feeders or dispose of it in any
other way they see fit, on filing written
notice with the board of public works to
that effect and filing a bond. 1t is the
form of this notice the board awaits.

NEARLY MILLION
 DUE UNCLE SAM
 MAY BE DEMANDED
Bill in Congress Designed to Get Back
 S3S. 600 of Nations Money.

SUMS WE'RE DISTRIBUTED IN 1886 NOW MIR. MURDOCH OF KAN SAS IS OUT WITH A BILL TO SECURE REPAYMENT. Connecticut may be called upon to pay back to the national treasury nearly a million dollars,
 Representative Victor Murdock of Kansas has introduced a. bill calling upon the states to refund the money that Andrew Jackson distributed among them in 1886, when the surplus from the sale of public lands reached $SS. .O00. .O0O.
 Up in the treasury are the written promises of 26 states to pay back when directed to do so the money that they procured from the federal government explained MT. Murdock.
 Probably three, certainly New York and possibly Delaware and New Jer- sey, have kept intact the money depos- tied with them. The other states have spent the money.
 "J am told that the state of New York loans out the s4,00O,0OO which it obtained and enjoys the benefit of the interest. In these times, when the fed eral government is needing the mon ey, believe New York should repay the amount. It is necessary for Con gress to make the demand for the money.

Character shown In work.

A foolish person builds foolishly, and
 ( wise one sensibly, virtuous one
 Beautifully and a vicious one badly. If stonework E we'll put together it means that a thoughtful man cut it and an honest man cemented it. If it has too much ornament it means that it's carver was too greedy of pleasure, if too little that he was rude or in sensitive or stupid or the like. A man may hide himself from you or misrepre- sent himself to you every other way, but he cannot in his work. There be sure you have him to the utmost, all that he likes, all that he sees, all that he can do-his imagination, h1s affec- ton, his perseverance, his impotence, clumsiness, cleverness, everything is there. If the work is a cobweb you know it was made by a spider, if honeycomb by a bee, a wormcast is thrown uR by a worm and a nest wreathed by a bird, and house is built by a man worthi1y if he is worthy and ignobly if he is ignoble. And all ways, from the least to the greatest, as thing made Is good or bed 50 is the maker of it.

Hearses After Night.

There Is one kind of vehicle that neither the oldest nor the youngest in habitant has seen on the street at night, or, if he has seen it at all, only infre- quently That is a hearse. Every other kind of conveyance used by modern man is driven about the streets freely after nightfail-the hearse alone comes under the curfew law. Early hours seem to be imposed upon that somber by common consent. The pub lie doesn't like to see 1t after dark, and coachmen don't like to drive it. No doubt there are hearses that are com pelled by the exigencies of funeral ar engagements to come home at unseason- able hours, but when forced to an in of the unwritten law they proceed through quiet streets where they will be least likely to wound the of the superstitious.-New York Herald.

Yes, later by a good deal than any fashion plates you've been shown is
 the "Roseberry,' the snappy new Bond street and Fifth avenue two button sack that has made it's appearance this
 week in Bridgeport. None of the fash
 ion plates show it because it has come
 into vogue since their preparation, as
 is the case with many models as sea- sons advance. This is one of the req
 sons why it pays to keep in touch with an up-to-date tailor like Wheale. 1042 always in touch with the doings at the fashion centers, London and New York, and is always able to give you ideas of the latest advent. This 'iRoSeberry'' is a corker in true style and represents all the adjectives one could invent-class, snap, style. good taste, etc. The wearer of it will find how perfectly he fits into fashions ways just the same in the Metropolis as he does at home. No man who admires the truly stylish and correct in clothes will delay adding to his wardrobe this latest two button sack the public is cordially invited to in spect it. The "Roseberry'' will be the thing this spring and summer as it has many points of advantage to it over all models shown the plates. Especial attention is directed to the stylish cuff designed pturposeIy for this model-it is not overdone in any way and every line of the suit is cut to conform with the individual charac- teristics of the wearer 'Tis an un- derdable style and Che that will make among men ~s good taste.

BE SURE SOLICITORS
 ARE ON THE SQUARE
GANG THAT FLEECED WATER BURY WuTH FIRE ALARM AD- VERTISING SCHEME SAID TO BE HEADED THIS WAY


 If anyone solicits you for an adver- tisement upon a fire alarm card in be- half of the fire department, the officials of the fire department desire to have it understood that the card is not authorized by the department and that the Pension Fund connected with the department will not be benefited in any way if the advertisement is given to the solicitors.
 The local department has received word from Waterbury that a pair of slick solicitors worked that town under the pretense of aiding the fire depart ment and when they had finished left the town without paying any of their bills. The tip from Waterbury was that the solicitors were headed for this city.
 Over a year ago a slick icon" man struck the town and after using the name of the chief and the superintend- ent of fire alarm 1egraph about town collected on a number of advertise ments and left town without even get ting out the cards.

AnimaIs' Play |. E.eroa.e.


 The relaxed rhythmicAI movements 30 common among animals at play, the gambling of lambs, the play of kittens and many similar animal activities, are initiated by man in the primitive dances which form so large a part in the social and religious life of all abo- riginal peoples These motions of leap ing, swinging, swaying and twisting of the body have, all of them, a most 1nt[ mate and powerful influence upon the body's activities, organic and muscu- lar Rolling is a form of exercise which is a favorite with many animals and is especially practtced for the pur- pose of relieving fatigue. Rolling is peculiarly enjoyable and grateful to the animal because it provides not only relief for the tensed muscles, the de pleted organs and the slow moving cir culat1on, but because as the animal rolls the firm pressure of the ground upon his body constitutes q most eff fective and agreeable massage.
