New Prison Notes
By " p. Dutch

A good many Saltwater people
took advantage of the beautiful
weather last Sunday and visited the
New Prison site. This site has
been the means Of attracting many
local as well as outside people to
the neighborhood during the past
summer.
Day engineer, ]. Frawley, is awaw
on ten day vacation. His place
is being taken by Guard Ed. Der

proved unavailing.

Last Sunday we did our first drill

Officer Henning Erickson slipped
a good one over on his officer friends
last week. He went away, presum-
ably on vacation. but. when, a
couple of days later, the cigars
arrived for distribution his cunning
was exposed. He is now hus-
band, and his fellow officers are
heartily agreed in wishing him and
his better half many years of health,
happiness and prosperity. 1t is
probable that he will be remem
bered with a suitable gift upon his
return to duty.

they went to Fall River, Mass,
where they boarded a steamer for

ner squad, having won the prize the
first time after it was offered last
May, and have come in Cor their

have succeeded admirably well in
keeping their form up to the stan

last Sunday is certain to be dupli-

1t was a case of the right man for
the right job When 6. F. was Sc
lected to preside over the laundry.
He has held the position for several
months and made good from the
start. A part of his work consists
of keeping track Of several hundred
pieces of clothing personally owned
by inmates, and in this he has been
very successful, as the lack of COM
plants attest. To give satisfaction
and to keep peace in the family is
his motto, and he certainly lives up
to it.

The following interesting prob

Now that it has been definitely
settled that the Giants and Athletics
will do battle in the worlds cham
pionship series; there is much spec
ulation as to the probable outcome
of these contests. Reams Of copy
have been published telling just how
Mathewson or Vanguard are going
to save the day for the Giants. Or
that the latter teams ability to steal
bases will effectually stop the Ath-
letics. On the other hand we are
informed that the Athletic team
is an all star aggregation and with
Coombs, Bender, Plank. Krause and
Morgan in the box. will have little
difficulty in disposing of McGraw's
pets. Skipping over all the afore-
mentioned dope, it seems to us that
the two teams are pretty evenly
matched in all departments, except
one-the pitching corps. There it
would seem that Connie Mack's
men have distinct advantage, for
with the five above mentioned fling
ers they have a wealth of good ma
terial, while McGraw's best bets are
Mathewson, Vanguard, Ames, Wiltsi
and Crandall-in the order named.
/ Little needs to be said concerning
the first two as to reliability, but
i Ames has the reputation of being
wild, unsteady and liable to blow
up at moments notice. Wiltsi is
a dandy good performer at times
but has been in poor condition the
latter half of the season and at most
will hardly be called upon to pitch
more than one game. Crandall may
or may not be able to go the route
but one thing is certain any one Of
the five Athletic hurlers named is
his superior. The Athletics will be
in fine trim for the fray fresh from
a weeks battle with McAleer's all
star aggregation and on form, mind
you, should capture the series. They
are not afraid of jinx either for
the first game will be staged in Go
than, Friday, the 18th, SO look

Beau Esprita, who operates the

CHINESE REBELS TAKE CITY
WI Chang, Capital Of Hupeh Province.
in Hands Of Revolutionists-For-
eign Residents UnmoIested.

Hankow, China.-The Chinese revo-
lutionaries, in consequence OF the
feeling aroused by the execution OF
four of their members, ended a day OF
rioting at WI Chang, capital of the
province of Hupeh, by capturing the
commander Iof the troops there and
forcing the viceroy to fee for his life.
The battle between the loyal troops
and the revolutionaries, who have as
their primary grievance objection to
the governments use of foreign money
in financing the building of new rail-
roads, lasted over twelve hours.
Foreign residents have not been
molested, according to advices re-
ceived here. The revolutionary COM
mittee at WI Chang issued a procla-
nation exhorting it's followers not to
harm the citizens of other countries.
During the riot fires were started
all over the town, the headquarters
of the viceroy and of the provincial
treasurer were burned, the military
commander was killed by a dynamite
bomb and the viceroy himself was
compelled to run to the river and
take refuge on a yacht which steamed
away with him.
Twenty-Five American missionaries
in WI Chang are known to be safe.
The fear Of the Chinese officials
now is that the disaffection will spread
to this city and every precaution is
being taken to ward off this danger.
The foreign consuls have tele-
graphed their governments asking
that warships be sent to the scene at
once. The United States cruiser
Helena has been ordered here from
Ku Kiang.
All loyal troops fled across the
river from WI Chang, with the revo-
larlcnaries firing upon them from the
river front.
]. is believed that almost the en-
tire army in the province of Hupel.
has gone over to the 1eyo]utionmies.

Caught in the storm almost as soon

times the huge gas bag began to sink.

was tossed from the basket to keep

Hunger and lack of sleep added to
their suffering.
Finally the Berlin II. refused longer
to remain in the air and sank into a

U. S. SUPREME COURT MEETS
Supreme Tribunal convenes With
Docket Of About 800 Suits
Before II. a

Washington.-The Supreme court OF
the United States convened after q
four months recess. 1t will re-
main In session until the last
of next May and will consider
as many of the 500 cases now piled up
on the docket as time will permit. A
long list of important cases, second
only to the Standard OIL and Tobacco
cases. will demand the attention OF
the court during the first month OF its
session.
Perhaps the most important OF
these suits is the Minnesota rate case,
in which Judge Sanborn OF the United
States circuit court held that the state
had no right to regulate rates within
its borders. This decision was based
on the theory that Interstate COM
r might be affected by such &C.
ton. During the recent conference of
governors at Spring Lake, N. j., the
attention of the entire country was
called to the matter by the speech OF
Governor Aldrich Of Nebraska. who at
tackled Judge Sanborn's decision and
said that the federal courts we're tres
passing IN the rights Of the state. A
committee headed by Governor Har-
mon Of Ohio was appointed to appear
state.
The decision Of the interstate COM
merce commission will claim the at
tention Of the court in the so-called
