Landsman and Sailor.

To the landsman the sea must al
ways possess dangers that to the sailor
appear only as casual phenomena upon
which to exercise his skill. The pray
err book has a special petition for the
safety of those who go down to the
sea in ships, and every one who ven
lures to leave the shore goes forth
with a consciousness of awe at his
own daring. Yet in the intricate COM
plexity of modern civilization safety
on land and safety at sea have walked
by no means with equal step. Every
morning brings us some story of death
or accident on land, while the great
passenger ships come and go in monot-
onous regularity, bringing no reports
more stirring than those of high seas
that have kept them from making new
records. With the present madness
for speed and its attendant reckless
ness our streets demand constant
alertness If one would cross them with
safety. Speed at sea has come through
larger and more stoutly constructed
ships. So the familiar old story Of the
sailorman at sea in a storm who, Sc
rene in his consciousness of ample
sea room, piously CALCULATED. GOD help
the poor folks ashore tonight" is not
wholly fantastic.-L. Frank Tooker IN
Century.

Secret Ink.

A simple expedient when one wishes
to contide his secrets to paper and yet
keep them is to use ordinary rice wa
ter instead of ink. 1t cannot be seen
when dry, but turns blue when iodine
is applied to it. If ii be desired to
make perfectly sure Of the destruction
of the contents Of the letter after it
has been read the purpose may be &C.
complished by writing 1t with solu-
ton of iodide of starch in water. A
few days later the script will have
disappeared.

NEWPORT,
Clambake at Camp Harriet.


Mr.. and Mrs. E. c. Blanchard gave the
second of their enjoyable clambakes at
their slightly cottage Camp Harriet "
on Knowlton's Bluff Wednesday after
noon and the 200 guests present, includ-
ing several from other towns than New
port, are enthusiastic over the outing.
In fact, the writer ate so many Provi-
dence river clans that his breast now
rises and falls with the tide. The tables
were set in tents and on the piazzas of
the cottage, the playhouse being utilized
for the punch bowl, which proved very
popular resort. genuine sea dinner
was served with all the fxings, the menu
including quohog chowder, clans in the
shell, baked sea trout, cold meats, fruit,
coffee and cigars. The chef was Rev. J.
A. Dixon of West Charleston, and if he
can preach as we'll as he can cook his
success in the ministry is assured.
George Young hada touching" manner
as head waiter, and under him was a
corps of trained assistants who saw
that each Of the guests had at least two
portions of everything in sight. Follow
ing the dinner Mr.. Blanchard read
several of the destinations to the invita-
ton. The latter was in rhyme and the
responses revealed corps of poets by
the lake that would have delighted
magazine editor. Miss Stevens of West
Derby contributed to the success of this
part of the program by several well-rend-
cred Rotations, music was furnished
from large graphopone, and before
the party broke up Arthur F. Stone of
st. Johnsburv told few stories and pro-
posed the Eugene Field toast to "Ned"
Blanchard. Following the dinner and
the informal literary program the after
noon was delightfully."- spent by the lake
side or in motor boats on the most
beautiful sheet of water in New England.

Al nisplay of Cold

The Southwestern Real Estate com pany which has been the leader in the exploitation of the new bonanza at Salome has secured new cases in which to place its display of the rieh ore which is daily observed by crowds of interested spectators, says the Phoenix Republican,. In the eases are 91 sam ples of the rock which carries large proportion of the precious metal Tn plain sight. Besides these samples there is section of frying pan used for horning containing about two table spoonsful of gold dust and fifteen small pieces of rock, the major portion of which is pure gold. Besides these three samples there are three sacks of the ore in box at one side. The value of the samples in the window is several thou sand dollars and two men remain in the office at night to guard the precious dis- play from possible burglary.

Brakeman Lost His Life.

G. II. Fifer, head brakeman on tho Benson local, was run over and instant ly killed last Saturday morning one mile east of Wilmot station, eight miles east of Tneson, by the train on winch he was working. His mangled remalrs were discovered by the crew on the h. ternational passenger train and taken to Tucson. There appears to be con siderable mystery as to how flfer cane to his death, says the Citizen. Two theories are advanced. One IS that he was knocked senseless in a fight With tramps and was thrown or fell between the cars to his death. Southern Pacific detectives are Investigating this inc. ory, The second theory is that he made a lhisstep while running over the cars and fell between them.

niscouraging to Shippers.

The information from Phoenix that Arizona shippers may have to wait for two years for relief from the unrcason- able freight rates now charged by the railroads in this territory is unwel- come and surprising news. The state ment is credited to Special Examiner Frank Lyons of the interstate commerce commission, made at a meeting of the Marieopa Commercial club, and is based upon the likelihood that the com mission will have to go deeply into matters connected with the recent rate hearing at Phoenix. MT. Lyons added that before 9 decision is rendered It IS probable that another hearing may have to be held either in Phoenix or in Washington, D. C.

Visit of E. B. Gage

Mir. E. B. Gage was in Phoenix yes terday, says the Republican, and brings good reports from the big mining pro .jects in Southern Arizona in which he is leading spirit. The work continues ceaselessly at Tombstone and the Con solidated Mines company is making fine progress and is seemingly sure to re- alize its expectations, which were not small by any means, as it is one of the great mile development enterprises of the southwest. The work at the lm- peral mine s also progressing satsfac- torily, and Mir. Gage intimated that at an early day a further enlargement of the smelling plant at Saseo would be urdertaksn.
