STATE OYSTER BOARD NAMED
BY GOVERNORS.

Representative Parran of Mary
land, chairman Of the commission APP
pointed by the governors Of Virginia
and Maryland to make, with the
bureau Of chemistry, new investi-
cation Of alleged pollution Of Pot
mac river oysters, announced that
the two governors Of the two ststes
had named the chemists and bacter-
biologists who are to make the inves-
tigation, and that the board Of in
quiry would start down the river
early next week, probably Tuesday,
depending upon what boat is obtain
ed from either Maryland or the fed
eral government for the purpose.
Gov. Mann of Virginia has APP
pointed DIR. Meade Ferguson Of
Richmond as virginia's bactoriolo-
gist, and DIR. +. W. Magruder as
chemist OF that state.
Gov. Coldsborough of Maryland
has appointed DIR. Royal w. Stokes,
Of Baltimore, as bacterioIogist Tor
Maryland and y ayatt w. Randall,
of Baltimore, as chemist. The
Secretary Of Agriculture, at the re-
quest of the beaureu Of chen istry,
has named w. W. Skinner as chemist
and DR.. George w. Stiles as bacteri-
ologist, to act in behalf Of the federal
government, the latter appointees
being the scientists whose original
report that the sewerage of Washing
ton and Alexandria is polluting the
waters Of the Potomac to such an
extent as to make many of the oys-
tiers in the river dangerous for food
caused the protest made by the
states that the governments charge
of pollution is not entirely true.
Writing to Representative Parran
today, Secretary Wilson says tina,
the Department Of Agriculture will
probably want to make more thar
the one trip down the river for the
purpose Of gathering additional oys
tiers and water for test He says it
has been for some time his intention
to make tests Of the river water at
various periods throughout the year,
and after the present proposed in
vestigation ia completed it is liksiy
that river water inquiry trips will be
made by the government from time
to time during 1912 and 1913.
Representative Par an Is endeavor
ing to obtain the use OF the Mlry-
land state fis cries sisams Governor
Thomas for the use of the scientist
in their trip down the Potomac. l.
that boat cannot be had because o.
other engagements, DR.. Doolittls,
acting chief Of the bureau Of chemis-
try, said that he would ask the Treas
ury Department to lend the commits
sion one OF the nearby revenue cut
tiers, as has been done heretofore.
"Ths present proposed investiga-
ton will likely take two weeks time
DR.. Doolitila said. awe shall re-
quire about four or FIVE days to
make the trip, and the chemists and
oacteriologists will require about a
weeks time for observation of tbs
oysters and water gathered upor
their return, so that no report on the
result can be expected for two
weeks"
The start will be made from
Washington.

Secretary henry l.. Slimson has
made his first speech Of the presiden-
til campaign, advocating the re-
election Of President Taft and the
continuance OF the Republican party
in power. Although, he said, ameu
" no were formerly Republicans are
now trying to destroy the party" and
denounced as "a Tuonstrous thing The
attempt to destroy this great party
this instrument which has been work
ing out the destiny Of pr. grsss il
this nation for SO year, the Secre
tary did not mention either Colone
Roosevelt nor the Progressive party
by name. His speech was a discus
sion of issues between Republican,
and Democrats, prefaced by a vigor
Gus reply to the contention thai
the Republican party had outlived it
usefulness, making third party
necessary.
"The Republican party Is the grea
liberal party Of the nation," said Mr.
Stimsen, anot the conservative party
that opposes reforms, nor the rAdica
parts that merely agitates reforms
but the liberal party, which accom-
plishes reforms. This is not mer,
accidentof history. 1t follows neces
sarily and inevitably from the form
of our government and the view
held toward that government ~ thu
men who are Republicans. 1t is {
necessary result Of the natio al view
held by Republicans toward theil
federal U ion and the liberal views
of construction held by them toward
their federal Constitution.
aOur party contains the men who
believe the Constitution is an instru-
nent of national progress, not a mere
refuge Of vested right; an instrument
not to be usei to protect The great
special interests of TO-DAY in tbs man
ner in which John C. Calhoun used
it to protect the great special interest
of slavery, but an instrument fitted
to solve the great problems of tomor-
row, just as Lincoln used it to solve
the great war problems Of bis day.

WANArlAKERS EPI0RAMS ON
THE TARIFF.

Hon. John Wanamakcr in an in
terview With a Union Associated
Press representative said;
@The tearing down Of the consti-
tuition and the tariff is like allowing
horde of enemies under the spell Of
reckless leader to rip off TIE armol
plate on our naval vessels.
"Nothing under the heaven can
stop the havoc Of desperate fighters
but continentwide rally Of TIE lie
publican party.
@Taft and the top wave of pros
perity, or destruction to industries
or the whirligig administration Of
an unbalanced President.
"No new government ought to be
permitted TO check existing prosper
ity.
'The pleading of millions of Amer
lean citizens from all over the land
for work failed to stay the destroy
ing hand of Cleveland and his free
trade Congress.
"An act (the Wilson tariff) that
closed American workshops, that re.
duced American wages and degrad-
ed American manhood to want, mis-
cry and starvation.
@Do American farmers American
workiugmen, American manufacture
ers, American merchants, desire re-
return to the Cleveland condition

THIEVES RUN OFF WITH
SAFE; OWNER SAD

drug store at Madison and Pau-
lima streets is today mourning the
loss of a safe. T.
The strong box was standing
on the sidewalk in front of Mer-
riman's place last night. Today
it was gone. No clue to the rob-
bers. The safe didn't naturally
belong on the sidewalk, but on
the reason for its being there
hangs the story.
Feb. 5, the drug store was rob
bed and the safe blown open.
The robbers were not captured.
Losing all that money and not
having the satisfaction of seeing
the thieves go to jail caused a
large crouch to descend on Mr..
Merriman.
In revenge he placarded his
windows with signs roasting the
police for ineficieney, moved the
safe out on the sidewalk, and
pasted large poster on it, which
cried aloud that it was "a knock
at the police protection of the
neighborhood." AS if that wasn't
enough, it continued:
"This safe was cracked open
and robbed of over $500 some
time between the hours of II p.
m. and 7 a. m. Feb. 5. Despite
the fact that the store was in
darkness, this did not arouse the
suspicion of the police, who are
supposed to notice incidents"
Did the police like it? Not
any. They forced the druggist
to move, the safe back few
inches from the sidewalk every

tried to show their displcasure.
The corner of Paulina and
Madison is one of the busiest lit
tie spots on the West Side, and
Mr.. Merriman can't quite under
stand how thieves could walk up
in broad daylight and take his
safe.
But it's gone.

They stood thus on the sand, while the
blue bay dimplcd and smiled on them. After
a time he helped her with infinite tenderness
up to the ships deck, and they stood again
together at the rail.

great forest branches leaned over and min
glcd with the rigging. The green foliage
was indistinct, and the spars stood out
sharply and alone against the cobalt sky.
The BRIDGE" he whispered.
Above them on the ships bridge the figures
OF two whtc-coatcd officers seemed to emerge
slowly. On the deck shadowy, familiar figures
appeared TO be moving. The island melted
away, and in its place, on all sides, lay the
sea. \ delicious, soft, Surging sound Of water
came to their ears. Suddenly the silence was
further broi'cn by the ships bell striking
four times.
The figure Of the Hindu was near them on

AT first he imagined he WAS foIIoI,;no be-

HillieSSly about through the thick forest
he found himself climbing, however, and de.
terlmned to make for the signal at the sim
mt OF the principal hill on the island, as that
seemed TO him the only possible objective
she might have. As he rushed painting along
tearing his hands, face, and clothes in t6e
underbruSh, fear amounting almost to a
pane obScsScd him. Was She, like her
mythological prototype, to turn into a tree
ana leave him alone just when he longed for
her most: The horrible silence burdened
hm like the god of doom. He seemed
trghtfully alone. Memories of incidents of
their stay upon this lifcleSs island raced
through his brain. Now that she was gone,
he realized how her presence had given him
courage and ChcCrcd his loneliness. Without
her the island was intolerablc. He saw her
chatting bravcly at the breakfast table or
exploring the ship with him. Once, on a
whim, she had dressed herself in a smart
street gown with paraSol and gloves. and
he had donncd a frock coat and high hat,
and they had taken an afternoon promenade
upon the beach. Another day they had
dned together in the cabin in full evening
dress, and later had danced upon the moon
Int deck. He had talked to her as he had
never talked before to anybody, and now
At last he found himself, painting and cx-
hauSted, on the summit. She was not there.
The flag still hung lifelcSs upon its staff. Far
below him on all sides lay the motionlcSS sea.
No song OF bird broke the stiffness. He
shouted, "Daphnc! Daphne! Speak to me!
Come to me, Daphne" but his voice broke
the stiffness in vain. Almost Sobbing from
physical and mental stress, he plunged down
ward, alongside the brook toward the ship.
His knees trcmblcd with wcarinesS, his feet
were wet with the water and bruised by the
rocks. Still downward he Carecned toward
the harbor. 1t was now nearly midafter-
noon. The brook grew larger, and ghmpscs

before him. Then he saw the cleaning yell

SUDDENLY. on the sand near the ship, he
~ saw dark spot. 1t was Daphne, lying
huddlcd and motionlcss. With a great sob
he cast himself upon her, falling on the sand
beside her and gathering her head in his
arms She was breathing family.

voul Daphne, my love, my love, listen.
Can YOU hear mc?" He kissed her again and
again as she lay in his arms.
Presently she sighed and opened her eyes.
Her face was close to his.
"Oh, Daphne. my love, he cried, 81 have
found you, Listen, | have found the Sc
cret of the island know the answer to all
those questions asked YOU about God and
the universe. 1t is-love. Love is behind

beauty as the color came back TO her checks

The air is vibrant with music. She sat up

They had risen, and he held out his arms
to her, and she came TO him and held her
face to his, and his arms EMBODIED her and he
kissed her on the lips.
~Love and work, he said gently, "lovc
