Otherwise everything is quiet.
There was another small fire on the
Arabic this morning. making the fifth
since Friday morning The passengers
who are to sail for New York on tho vessel
left Euston station on the usual boat
train this morning in hopes that she
would sail. The company announced
later that she would sail tomorrow.
The passengers booked for the Cunard
liner Carmania also left on the boat train.
although there was considerable doubt
about the esse being able to sail The
officers Of the Cunard Line said the vessel
would sail to-day. She lay in midstream
and the passengers were compelled to
board her from tug. This is because
of the docksfs refusing to do any work
on the vessel
II was officially announced at Liver
pool this afternoon that the C,nard and
the White Star and other OF the com
bne" lines would recognize the dockers
union. which was the main point in dis
pute between the steamship companies
and the men. The companies also greed
to hold a conference with the men
within a month on the question of wages
and labor conditions
A Ire broke out OF the steamship
Canada at Liverpool this afternoon.
The MinnetOnka OF the Atlantic Trans

( ford. bound for Philadelphia
The White Star company issued a
notice to-day that its steamship Suevic.
which was to have sailed on the Australian

Barn,Im HrOwn Returns From Long
southern Trip.

Barnum Brown. a soCiate curator Of
fossil reptiles at the American Museum
Of Natural History. has recently returned
from six months expedition through
Mexico. Cuba and three of the Southern
States Mississippi. Louisiana and Ala
bama
Mr. Brown spent two months in Cuba,
where he made some important finds
and where he was joined in his work of
exploration by DR.. Carlos de la Tore,
professor of zoology at the Museum of
Havana. The expedition in Cuba was
financed Jointly by the Cuban Govern
ment and the museum. DR.. de la Tore
and MIR Brown spent month travelling
through the central provinces OF Cuba
exploring caves in the northern part of
the province of Santa Clare. They made
their best finds in n Cuban hot spring,
1T proved to be a veritable museum of
living and fossil life and very prolific
in specimens" said Mr.. Brown, "and you
can imagine that it was warm work
gathering fossils in water Of 9S degrees
I'VE sent diver, notive of the reSicn,
into the spring to investigate. His re-
port was favorable. end so We ct once
itarted operations and put several pump
into service We succeeded in obtaining
a large collection of fossil remains, chiefly
of the prehistoric sloth, alligators, crCcos
ulles, turtles ana pruS' ne uel'iHlln
ton of these specimens will enable us to
ascertain when Cuba was connected with
the mainland and whether with North
or Central America
From the material secured Mr.. Brown
expects to mount two skeletons of tho
meglocnus sloth of either the Pliocene
or Pleistocene age. Some Of the speci-
mems found in Cuba are new TO science
and many living forms obtained are not
rcpres ented in the mus cum collections
In Mexico Mr.. Browns most important
find was the nearly complete skeleton of
a glyptodon which ranks second in size

WEATHER CONDITIONS.

The crest of the area of high pres
sure overlies the territory from New
England to the northern portion Of the
lake region, while low air pressures
still prevail in the southern plateau
states. These barometric conditions
have been attended by unsettled, show
cry weather on the eastern Rocky
mountain slope, in the central valleys
and the lake region and on the gulf
and south Atlantic coasts. Freezing
weather is reported from central Wyo-
ming and frosts have occurred in yell
lowstone park and western Montana
Owing to the position of the high and
the Northwestern low, unsettled wealth
er is indicated for this vicinity, with
probably showers tonight or Saturday
No important change in temperature
is expected.

Hong been the end desired by those who are seeking to promote the coun- try's welfare. By reason of all his previous years of training when he has been acting on his own judgment, and working alone. the farmer is not accustomed tO organized effort, and does not fully recognize its value:
 hence the influence of his wife in this matter is of special help. The farmer knows if he leaves home for any length of time that weeds spring up. fences fall down, cattle get of their feed and cows fail in their milk. Hence he stays at home year in and year out getting deeper and deeper in the rut unless educational and social privi- leges are brought to him.

Otherwise Movement For Better Farm Conditions is Doomed to Failure, is Conclusion Reached By Miss Ashby.
WOMAN DELIVERS
 GREAT ADDRESS
Says if a Boys Mother Or dains Him For Farm Work There Will Be No Doubt Whatever About His Success.

People interested in the uplift movement and the various other move ments having to do with the better ment of social and economic condi- tions, sometimes forget that women are as vitally interested in these movements as are the men. For in stance. at the Conservation Congress at Kansas City a great deal was said about the farmer and very little about the farmers wife: when as matter of fact there are just about as many of the latter as there are of the form CT. Also the farmers wife plays just as important a part in the domestic economy as does her husband, although that fact seemed to be overlooked at the congress.
 It remained however for one of the speakers to call to the attention of the delegates in a most forcible man ner the fact that they had made some thing of a mistake in arranging their program. This speaker was Harriet Wallace Ashby. whose address on the Farmers Wife" was the equal of any delivered at the convention.
