HOME ON TURLOUGH.
Lieut.. T. ID. Barber Visiting Parents
after Trim around the World.

First Lieut.. Tom y. Barber of tho
1attleship kentucky has arrived in
this city to spend n short furlough
with his parents, NJ. and Mrs. c. y.
Barber. Lieutenant Barber made the
famous trip around the world with the
United states feet. He was not i'll
day during the long voyage, but says
that y, would not care to repeat tho
trip. Yesterday he gave many OF his
friends souvenirs of the voyage in the
shape OF foreign money collected at
various ports. the money being of cop
per and silver pieces
Almost every ono Is familiar with
the voyage OF the feet. how the long
train Of battleships left Hampton
Roads on December 16 1907, how they
circled South America to san Francis
co. then to New Zealand, Australia.
Japan. China. Ceylon. Algeria, Glib
raltar and home. All OF this the pub
lie knows. but there are many incl
dents that occurred to every officer
and man on the fleet, many of which
are remembered with pleasure. For
instance at some foreign ports pieces
Of American money We're IN great de-
mand rs souvenirs five cent pieces
being sold for as high as IS.
The Chinese government officials
presented each officer of the fleet with
a cloisonne vase and at Japan gold
medals were presented to them. Med
ais were also presented at Australia,
where. probably, the most elaborate
demonstration was made In the fleet $
honor. There every officer and enlist
ed man was hero and the populacc
could not do enough to please them.
The feet, which covered $4,000 miles,
returned to Hampton Roads on Feb
| ruary %.
After travelling through all the
zones experiencing every climate
known to the earth and visiting many
ports, Lieutenant Barber says that he
prefers living in Burlington to any
| other place.

Adams-he was unable conscientiously to
approve the so-called ''.mperialstic"
policy OF the Mckinley administrG ton.
and indeed his opposition 10 that policy
had been very decided. Feeling, how
ever that the emergencies Of IN politi-
ca, situation demanded the reelection OF
Mr. Mckinley as result infinitely 10 be
preferred to triumph OF the Bryan dem
oc~acy, he came out with emphasis in
favor Of Mr. Mckinley. But this WAS
done with a clear Incidental avowal OF
his continued Honacceptance OF !he i'm
perialstic program, and an equally
strong assertion OF the unalterable de-
termination OF republicans Of like think
Ing to work within party lines for a re-
yersal OF the national policy Of acquiring
by bloody conquest dominion over re-
luctant peoples beyond the seas. Few
Developments Of the canvass in New
York city were received with greater
public attention, q contributed n more
marked influence toward the ultimate
result, than DR.. Cuylers published dec
larat,on OF his attitude.

LIFE GUARDS,

The Life Guards are two regiments
CT cavalry forming part of the British
household troops. They are gallant
soldiers, and every loyal British heart
is proud of them. Not only the King 8
but yours, ours, every
botly's should have its life guards
The need of them is especially great
when the greatest foes of life. diseases
find allies in the very elements. as
colds. influenza, catarrh, the grip. and
do In the stormy month of
March. The best way that we know OF
to guard against these diseases is to
strengthen the system with Hoods
greatest OF all life
guards. IT removes the conditions in
which these diseases make their most
,uccessful attack. Eives vigor and tone
O all the vital organs and functions
nd imparts genial warmth to the
lood. Remember the weaker tho sys-
,om tho greater tho exposure to dis
,aso Hoods Sarsaparilla makes the
system strong.

the congestion of commerce is so abb
normal that the railroads feel war
ranted in enlarging their facilities in
anticipation Of the most prosperous
