President Taft and Other Distin-

ment at Provincetown, Mass.

bark Mayfower, were fittingly hon

steamed into the harbor on his yacht
of the same name and participated in
the exercises incident to the unveil-
ing of the Pilgrim monument Four
teen battleships anchored in the bay
for the purpose of engaging in target
practice each fired the presidential
salute of 81 guns.
Many eminent men were invited to
assist in the ceremony, and among
those who participated were James
Bryce, the ambassador from England;
Jonkheer J. Louden, minister from
the Netherlands; Senator Lodge, Con-
gressman Foss of Chicago and former
President Eliot of Harvard. DR.. Eliot
delivered the grafton and brief re-
marks were made by some Of the
other guests.
In addition to the monument tab
let was unveiled as the successor OF
one which was destroyed when the
old town hall, which occupied the site
on which the Pilgrim monument
stands, was burned IN 1877.
Provincetown has long gloried in
the fact of her participation in the
making of early Pilgrim history, and
she now points with pride to the
great shaft commemorating the ar
rival of the Mayfiower in this har
bor. The shaft is imposing. II

years. I had three good doctors but
none Of them did any good. l then
used one box OF Cuticura Ointment

were raw all over, inside and out, and
the eczema was spreading all over my
body and limbs. Before had used one
bottle, together with the Cuticura
Ointment, my sores were nearly
healed over, and by the time had
used the third bottle, 1 was entirely

bit of trouble up to now.

RAID FASHIONABLE
GAMBLING RESORT
CONSTABLE AND FIVE DEPUTIES
CATCH THIRTY SOCIETY
LEADERS IN NET.
WOMEN SHREK, MEN MUTTER CURSES
None of the Inmates Are Locked Up,
the Officer Permitting Them All
to Go After He Had Jotted
Down Their Names.

Narragansett Pier, R. 1.-The pa
latial Narragansett club, famous
for years as the gambling rem
devious of the fashionable summer
colony, was spectacularly raided
early in the morning and 30 society
leaders were caught in the net. The
raid was made by Constable John G.
Cross, with five specially sworn depu-
ties, and they created furore among
the men and exquisitely attired wo-
men as they swooped into the sump-
tuous club parlor, pistols in hand.
OF the fashionables placed under
arrest, the constables will divulge the
names only of two-Mrs. John j.
Hanan of New York and Philip S. B.
Randolph, prominent in Philadelphia.
Mrs. Hanan was sitting at an ornate
$4,000 roulette wheel, eagerly at play
when the constables made their en-
trance. Randolph was engaged at an
other wheel, surrounded by bevy of
beautiful women. When Constable
Cross, striking a dramatic attitude,
read off statement which he had
prepared informing the society play
ers that they were under arrest-this
while his deputies were holding the
frightened throng in a corner of the
great parlor-the women shrieked
and the men muttered imprecations.
In a desperate fight which ensued
among the special deputies and men
under Chief of Police James d. Case
nell, over whose head the raid had
been made, James S. Y. WINS, son OF
William NJ WINS of New York
whacked Policeman John j. Cum
mings upon the head with the butt
end of his revolver. After the raid
upon the urging of 7. j. McKenna
president of the Narragansett club
and William Arnold, its vice presi
dent, Constable Cross was himself ar
rested and had to wait two hours in
Jail before he could get out. This
came after battalion of colored mer
in the clubs employ had sneaked into
the parlor, which Cross was guarding
alone, and had spirited away the
gambling paraphernalia.
None of the society folk wer,
taken to the lookup, Constable Cros
graciously permitting .all of them t.
go after he had jotted their names
down in memorandum book.

SLUMP IN THE AUTO BUSINESS
Bottom Seems to Have Dropped Out
Notwithstanding Boosting Efforts
of Manufacturers.

New York.-Indications point to the
bottom having fallen out of the auto
mobile business. The manufacturers,
it is reported in trade circles, are
making strenuous efforts to keep up
a show of continued prosperity, but
1t is also said that they are not sell
ing their product, but are storing ma
chimes throughout the country at
their various agencies to prevent the
public realizing the true conditions
of the market.
Several large concerns are laying
of men and giving all sorts of rea-
sons for so doing except the state
ment that they are overstocked. Two
or three of the largest factories re-
Gently closed entirely, ostensibly for
the purpose of taking inventory, but
the workmen were not given any def
mite time at which to again report
for work, and it is not expected that
these factories will again be in opera
ton this year.
A well-known automobile agent of
this city said yesterday that all cars
would undoubtedly be selling at from
25 per cent to so per cent less than
present list prices within the next
two or three months. He added:
THE trouble with the automobile
business is that the farmers and peo
pie of the smaller cities and towns
have not taken as kindly to the idea
as was anticipated. The farmers find
| that the cost of keeping them in re
pair and operation is more than the
cost of keeping horses to perform the
same work, and while there was, fol
a time, tendency among the farm
ers to invest in the machines, the de
mand for cars from this class of buy
ers has practically stopped, and
venture to say we will not again sci
to the farmers to any extent unit
prices are materially reduced"

MINERS CONDITIONS ARE BAD
immigration Commission Presents
Report After Investigating West
ern Pennsylvania Coal Fields.

Washington, D. C.-Conditions of
life in the bituminous coal fields of
western Pennsylvania retard the as
similation of foreigners and at the
same time are not conducive to
stable form of family life. Such is the
view of the immigration commission,
of which Senator Dillingham; of Yer
mont is chairman. 1t is presented in
a report made by the commission as
a result of an inquiry covering about
$4,000 cases in that section. The
commission found more than rs per
cent of the miners to be foreign born,
many of them unable to write any
language and almost half of them in
capable of speaking English. Gener-
ally they live in houses owned by the
companies, and these the owners re-
fuse to sell to their occupants, thus
encouraging unsettled conditions
among the workers. The average
yearly earnings of heads of families
was found to be only $4S1.

arch built in the form of an ancient
battlement with its towers and tur-
rets. This was intended to represent
the entrance to the city. and as the

toned on its heights heralded the ap-
proach of each grand division.
Next the knights came abreast OF
the first grand stand, one-half mile in
length, and this needed no decora'

mainly with ladies' whose beautiful
