SECRETARY WILSON
In Florida East Coast Homeseeer for
June Says:


There is no large body of land "
ing within the boundary Of the Unit
ed States, in fact not in any portion
of the world, that will, when the
drainage is completed, be of so great
value as the once depised Everglades
million acres of rich alluvial lands,
located in a climate that is almost
absolute perfection, where crops can
be grown the entire season through,
where there are no long cold winters,
no excessive heat in the summer, no
malaria or other diseases. From the
very nature Of the conditions Flori-
da must become the paradise of the
world Here a thrifty careful tiller OF
the soil can make more clear money
on ten or twenty acres than on
farm Of $50 acres in the north ana
west
The doubling Thomases, who are
standing back and awaiting develop
ments will in few years see the folly
OF their acts and for the rest of their
natural lives will regret that when
they had the opportunity Of purchas-
ing these lands at a nominal figure,
they had not done so There is but
one east coast of Florida in the world
there are no other portions of the
United States where the climatic
| conditions are as near perfect. there

ROOSEVELT TALKS TO PROBERS
Ex-President of United States Takes
Full Responsibility in the Big
Steel Merger.

New York Clty.-"l wish 1t distinctly
understood that acted purely on my own
Initiative and that the responsibility for
the act was solely mine. II the same
situation should face me again ] would
do exactly what ! did them"
This declaration was made by
Theodore Roosevelt in the most un-
precedented event in American his
tory. The only living ex-president of
the United States gave utterances to
it before congressional committee
in the course of an explanation he was
making of one of his official acts.
That act was his official sanction of
the absorption of the Tennessee Coal
& Iron Co. by the United States Steel
Corporation at the solicitation of two
of the highest officers of that giant
combine. Following are some of the
pithy points made in Colonel Roose-
velt's testimony.
at was necessary for me to act on the
moment, before the stock exchange
opened"
"a believed and do believe that the
addition of the Tennessee company would
amount to an addition of only about A
per cent. to the steel corporation"
"ln my Judgment J would have been
derellct to my duty II In this crisis,
had not acted as | did. would have
shown myself tlmid public officer"

OLD GLORY WASN'T BARRED
Stars and Stripes in Evidence on All
Sides During Old Boys Parade
In Canada.

London, Ont.-Under ideal weather
conditions the biggest feature of
the Old Boys celebration, the pa
rade, took place here. Toronto, Ham
ilton, Detroit, Chicago and Winnipeg
had big delegations in line. Detroit
made an especially good showing, that
section being headed by huge Stars
and Stripes and Union Jacks carried
side by side. The United States flag
incident" of a few days ago. due to
the removal of the American emblem
from the street decorations, did not
cause any unpleasantness. The Stars
and Stripes were in evidence on all
sides and at many points on the
parade. British colors came for the
loudest applause, but the American
flag was given hearty reception.

RESCUED FROM BARREN ISLE
Ragged, Starving Men Fight Death on
Rock in Sea, Living on Raw
Gulls and SeaWeed.

Valdez, Alaska-Attracted by sig
nails of distress from Bardwell island,
a barren rock near the entrance
to Resurrection bay, the steam
ship Bertha on August 2, sent out a
small boat and took off two ragged
and starving men, Charles Alexander
and Alvin Anderson. The men had
been on the island two months. News
of the rescue has just reached here.
The. men sailed from Kodiaek, May IL,
in a dory on a prospecting voyage.
About June 1 a storm upset their craft
off Bardwell island and their pro-
visions and outfit were lost in the sea.
The men, who had few matches,
lived for months on mussles, clans,
young gulls, seaweed and wild herbs
which they cooked. After their
matches gave out, about July 1, they
ate their food raw.

Taft Makes Joking Remark When Sec
retary Signs AnsIo-American
Arbitration Treaty.

Washington, d. C.-"Knox, your
handwriting might undergo little
improvement" With this expression
from President Taft, followed by a
burst of hearty laughter from the his
toric group assembled, the Anglo
American general arbitration treaty,
first practical step toward the lasting
peace of the world, was signed at the
White House. AS the secretary of
state appended his signature to one
copy, Mr.. Bryce, the British ambassa-
dor, signed the other. Thereupon the
copies were exchanged and signed
again. Finally, Mr.. Knox attached his
name to the American copy of the
same general arbitration treaty with
France, duplicate of which was at
the same time signed in Paris by M.
Jusserand, the French ambassador to
the United States. Whether it be of
money, of territory or of national
honor that the difference may arise,
the arbitrament of reason and not OF
sword was pledged to it's adjustment.

Woman Had Married Negro and
Had Been Disinherited.

Cincinnati.-The headless body of
a woman which was found in the

tween Norwood and Cincinnati was
identified as that of Bertha Courtney

gro few weeks ago. Three weeks
ago she told Miss Clark that her hus-
band had threatened her life. The
man is missing. The victim came of

mysteries which has ever faced
the Cincinnati police department
hinges around the finding of the

DIES HELPING CASHIER
HIRED FlREBue is KILLED PRO.
TEcTING FRIEND.
Starts Blaze to Hide Defalcation OF
His EmpIoyer-Lips Are Sealed
to the Last.

New York City-Killed by the fire
ton might be hidden, Lightning"
Walsh is dead in Jersey City. Samuel
Brown, cashier of the Long Dock Mill
ing & Elevator Co., and Patrick ].
Timmons, his intimate friend, are un-
der arrest on charges of manslaughter,
arson and conspiracy as result Of
Walsh's death and the circumstances
that led up to 1t.
Brown has admitted shortage Of
S2,500 in his accounts. Timmons, an
expert accountant, he charges, had
worked with him for three months in
an effort to hide this embezzlement
and for two months had been discus
sing with him ways in which the
books might be destroyed. Sunday
afternoon, he says, they hit upon the
plan of paying Walsh $40 to burn
the contents of the safe in the office
of the mills. Early Sunday evening
Walsh went with Brown and Tim
mons to the office, where the safe
was opened for him. At 10:30 o'clock
he was found beside it, his eyes
burned out, his face almost unrecog-
nizable and only charred fragments
of clothing left upon his body.
Walsh died protecting the men ac-
cused of employing him. To the last
he protested that he had wandered
into the Office and had fallen asleep
with cigaret in his fingers, from
which his clothing had been fired. At
the hospital he was told that he would
die of his burns.
Now" queried a detective, won't
you tell us how it happened?"
Walsh shook his head and straight
ened out on his cot. 1t was his final
act.
The police found that some of the
books and papers had been taken from
the safe and soaked with gasoline.

WEDDING RING CAUSES DEATH
Gold Band Becomes Imbedded in Girls
Finger and Brings About Blood
Poisoning.

Chicago, Ill.-Mrs. Jessie Stewart
Gardner, 60, is dead at her home
because she refused to take her we'd
ding ring from her finger. The gold
band was placed on Mrs. Gardner's
finger on the day she became bride.
1t remained there until 1t had to be
filed off, but the filing was too late.
Mrs. Gardner's finger had increased
gradually in size. The pressure of the
ring became correspondingly greater.
The ring finally became imbedded in
the flesh and caused interruption of
the blood circulation. With reluctance
Mrs. Gardner consented to have the
ring filed off. Owing to the delay,
blood poisoning developed and result
ed in her death.
