4. d. Lowrey, ror LEVERS s Cooke,
lumber dealers, gave a very clear and
concise statement as to the impossible
ity Of moving lumber shipments from
the wharves in the time specified, ow-
ing to the lack Of wharf facilities for
getting rid Of cargoes quickly. The
wharves clog up and teams are halted
for half day at time. Vessels are
required by the charter parties to dis
charge lumber at. the rate of $4,000 feet
per day, but those handling the lumber
after discharge cannot handle it so
quickly.
"The commissioners should place no
hindrance in the handling of domestic
eargoes, or make it more difficult to get
them away. especially when compared
with the time allowed for hauling for
eign cargoes.r said Mr.. Lowrey.

Hilo Is Ahead.

Senator Judd was the last delegate
from the valley to speak, and said that
Nuanm would not trouble the board
for some time after the street was fixed.
There were other matters which needed
attention, especially open sewers on
each side of some of the streets of the
district.
"Why, even Hilo has abolished the
condition of open sewers" concluded
4 the senator.

Many Speakers.

After the business of the board was

her room filled with smoke.
She rushed to Mrs Osborne's room
aroused her and then ran quickly to
the rooms of the other students, shout
ing and pounding on the doors. All
responded and then the rooms occupied
by the twelve maids were visited
They were aroused also.
In the meantime the fire department
was summoned by telephone. The
girls by this time had gathered in the
parlors and regained their nerve. AL
though the house was filled with smoke
the girls threw open the windows and,
lighting the gas, began playing rag
time tunes, singing college songs and
dancing, while the firemen chopped
through floors and walls to reach the
blaze. The music was continued for
two hours until the blaze was extin-
guished
A defective flue is supposed to have
been the cause of the fire. The dam

166,60O sheets of printed work in var
ious stages of manufacture, these re-
suits agreeing with the official rec
ords. The value of these sheets was
$470,828,732.
The large number of notes return
ed to the department for redemption
and which are cancelled, thus necessit-
ating the printing of notes to replace
them in circulation, suggested the idea
some time ago that many of these notes
could be washed and returned to cir
culation. Investigation developed the
fact that least 80 per cent of these
notes were not at all worn, but were
simply soiled, and only needed cleans
ing to make them suitable for use
Experiments have been carried on in
a crude way and have demonstrated
the practicability of washing the notes,
and there are now IN process of con-
struction two machines of different
principles which it is belived will be
very satisfactory for this work.

CHICAGO, Nov. S.-A campaign
against tipping has been started by
commercial travellers of the United

ROOSEVELT DROWNED
NOT MAN BUT TOWN

SPOKANE, Wn., Nov. S.-Roosevelt,
the principal town in the Thunder
Mountain district in central Idaho in
1902, today is covered by a lake 600
yards in length and 200 yards in width
and of an average depth of 25 feet. 1t
was the scene of a gold strike nine
years ago and thousands braved the
hardships and hazards of the trail. 1t
proved a disappointment, though much
pay ore was developed nearby.
The circumstance which wiped the
town of Roosevelt from the map was
peculiar. 1t resulted from a landslide
two years ago, starting near the source
of Mule creek, mile and half from
the settlement. The great avalanche
of earth and stone p1oughed its way
through virgin forest with roar
that was heard for miles. Twenty-siX
hours after the break occurred the
mass stopped abruptly across the
lower part of the town, forming a dam
for Monument creek, which has now

MAD RUSH FOR GOLD

TACOMA, Nov. S.-September and
October earthquakes in southwestern
Alaska so shook up the earth and
glaciers along the coast as to expose
what miners claim are the world S
richest gold quartz veins. Excitement
similar to the Klondike stampede of
1897 prevails at Valdez, Cordova and
other southern Alaska towns.
Quartz samples from Port Wells, so

total weight of the rock being pure

Samples of gold quartz running as

quakes shook up glaciers and exposed

ROMAN GOSSIP HINTS
AT AMERICAN POPE

ROME, Nov. S.-Comments on the
approaching consistory, when seven
teen cardinals, including three from
the United States, will be created,
continue to emphasize the great sig
nificance of Pope Plus decision to
grant America four representatives in
the Sacred College. By some it is
asserted that the way is being paved
for the future advent of an American
Pope
By such it is pointed out that the
largest aggregation of Catholics in the
world is to be found in the United
States and it's possessions, the Philip
pine islands, Hawaii, Porto Rico and
Guam. Not onyl are the Catholics of
America superior in numbers, but in
deep religious feeling, piety, loyalty to
the Holy See and in wealth and gen
erosity. An Irish-American Pope is
suggested for the day when it shall be
considered no longer necessary for
the papacy to be held by an Italian.
The American College faculty and
students are rejoicing especially over

BANDIT HOLDS
CHURCH AS FORT

PARIS. Nov S.-The Church of
Claremont, in the Disc, has been turn
ed to a novel use. An outlaw hoisted
the red flag on it's steeple, and then
posted himself with gun, ready to
fire from the top at anyone who dared
to approach.
Some one had the presence of mind
to ring the bell, which sounded like a
''tocsin,' and of course, the whole
town turned out The man at the top
of the tower fired several shots to
warn them that they had better not
come nearer. The whole trouble arose
between him and another man with
whom he had a row. For this he was
brought before a police court and was
fired Is francs. The fine exasperated
him, and, rather than pay it he took
revolt against existing authority and
society.
Gendarmes were sent to parley with
him, and, after parleying all night,
they at last induced him to surrender.
He did so on condition that he would
have another hearing at the police
court and that he should present what
ever new arguments he had to show
that he ought not to be fined.

WOMAN WITH AN AXE
DEFENDS HER HUSBAND

WILMINGTON, Del, Nov. 8.-The
courage of Mrs. Peter DreY-e, wife of
farmer at Mermaid, four niles from
Hockessin, in Mill Creek Hundred
saved her husband from immediate
death on Saturday night Armed with
an ak, she faced two colored men who
had felled her husband and farm
hand.
After she had dragged the unconsci-
Gus forms of her husband and the hir-
ed man into the house, she barricaded
the door and stood guard until morn
ing over the seemingly lifeless bodies
of the two men. Though the affair
occurred on Saturday, it was kept
secret until today.
At nine o'clock on Sunday morning,
after having stood ak in hand all
night, she sent her nine-year- son
to the house of neighbor to give the
larm. DR.. John Ball was summoned
and found that Drejke was suffering
from crushed skull, while one eye
was gouged out, and he is internally
injured The face of the farm hand
is crushed into an unrecognizable
mass.

the elevation of Archbishop Farley of
New York, and Archbishop O'Connell,
of Boston, as they are alumni of the
college. The former was one of the
original thirteen students when the
college was founded by Pope Plus TX.
The objections made by some, that
Monsignor Kennedy, rector of the Am
erican College, being an American
cannot be appointed apostolic delegate
to Washington, are confuted by the
fact that the present Pope for the
first time made a departure from the
rule, nominating Monsignor Frueh-
wirth as papal nuncio to Munich,
which arrangement is working we'll.
Moreover Monsignor Kennedy is de-
scribed as a Romanist to the back
bone.
1t is reported that Monsignor Sante
Tampieri, who accompanied Cardinal
Vincenzo Vannutelli to America on the
occasion of the eucharistic congress at
Montreal and is private chamberlain
to the Pope, will be entrusted to take
the red hat to Bishop O'Connell.

1t was about $3.50 o'clock that
Drejke was attacked He was walk
ing from the house to the barn when
he was felled to the ground Two
colored men bounced upon him. His
nine-year-old son was with him at
the time and he ran to the house and
notified the farm hand, who hurried
to the assistance of his employer. He
had not proceeded more than thirty
yards when a stone rendered him in
sensible.
Mrs. Drejke heard the noise and run
ming from the house saw the assail-
ants still beating the fallen men. She
seized an ak and attacked the color
ed men.
State Detective Mccoy arrested Sam
uel Jackson, colored, this evening.
Jackson was found in this city but
could not give a satisfactory account
of his whereabouts on Saturday night.
The officer says that Jackson has been
working in the vicinity of the Drejke
farm and that he was seen on a troll
ley car at eleven o'clock Saturday
night.

MAKING MONEY? YES,
AND A BIG LOT TOO

WASHINGTON, Nov 8. = When it
comes to making money there's mod
est brick building under the shadow
of the Washington monument that lays
it over any old trust. 1T is officially
known as the bureau of engraving
and printing. 1t is Uncle Sans fac
tory for turning out national currency,
national bank notes, postage stamps,
internal revenue stamps, bonds and
other things of value.
Director J. e. Ralph tells about
them in his annual report to the Sec
rotary of the treasury. He tells
about the production of 67,113,500
sheets of United States currency and
11,526,526 of national bank notes.
Postage stamps ran up to 97,521,708
sheets, containing total of nearly 49,
O45, 735,207 stamps. Of the higher
priced postage stamps there were A.,
992 at 81 each; 697,787 at SO cents and
1e,O93,OS9 at Is cents. The more
common two-centers, with George
Washingtons likeness thereon, mount
ed up to an output of 5,130,249,018.
There were printed S4,011,264 sheets
of revenue stamps, $4,000 sheets of
United States and Panama bonds and
so on in other hundreds of thousands
and millions A large demand is re-
ported for postage stamps prepared in
coils for use in stamp-vending and
stamp affixing machines.
In connection with an investigation
by the post office department it be-
came important for the postmaster
general to know how many postage
stamps Ralph had on hand. A count
was made that disclosed 1911, 319,607
stamps in the bureau vaults, and the
number correspondent to the last one
cent stamp with the record in the
books.
The count of postage stamps sug-
gested a notification of all balances in
the bureau. 1t was done and showed
2.O56, DAT sheets of blank paper and 3D.

formed a lake where the townsite
stood.
There were few residents in the
town at the time of the slide and all
escaped with their possessions, owing
to the slowness of the avalanche. A
log school house and two cabins, out
of it's path, now stand as silent senti-
nels to mark the vanished town. The
buildings are situated above the water
line and as the lake has risen to a
point that it has an outlet, it is not
likely the water will become deeper.
Roosevelt camp today is deserted,
the residents having moved to other
holdings. The mines are closed and
the prospectors and miners have
sought newer and more promising
fields in the tributary country, which
is rich in mineral resources. 1t is
hardly probable that the camp will
ever be resurrected, as it is isolated
and off the line of transportation, be-
sides which it would take a fortune
to drain the water off to make it fit
for habitation.

PARIS, Nov. S.-The greatest SEN
sation in Paris since the theft of Mona
Lisa is the story of the romance of
Madame Curie, widow of the late Pro
fessor Curie, and with him the dis
coverer of radium, and Professor Lang
evin, of the College of France, which
is printed by many of the newspapers
today.
The Journal this morning said that
the professor, who is at the head of
the Department of Physics in the Col
lege of France, had left his home some
time ago, taking his two children with
him, and that Madame Curie, with

also had disappeared.
Mrs. Langevin has brought suit for
separation against the professor.
Madame Curie is in Brussels with
Professor Henri Poincare, Perrin,
Brillouin and Langevin, representing
French science at the Conference on
Modern Physics. Madam Curie and
Professor Langevin Doth deny the
story printed in the Journal and other
papers. Professor Langevin admitted
that he had left his wife but added
"My relations with Madame Curie have
been strictly limited to scientific
work"

the courts hold that minors death is
worth $4,000, the maximum provided
by law. This loss must be sustained
by the three powder mills doing bust
