HOROSCOPE
JUNE %.

It is difficult to understand a per-
son born on this date and oftentimes a
person Of this birth date goes through
life a puzzle and an enigma to his or
her friends.
These people come under the sign
Cancer" and, if you look at the SYM
bolic pictures of the Zodiac, you will
find that this nativity Of Cancer is
represented by the crab. Some of the
greatest people Of the world have come
from this sign and some of the weak
est.
The strong characteristic Of this
birth date is determination which
amounts 20 stuhbornness in many
cases
II is useless 10 argue with persons
of this birth date. They are extremely
nervous and irritable and often want
to get away from their surroundings.
This birth date has much TO over
come, but strength and success fol-
low individual effort
The period following Is date will
be found to be well favored for team
sters, travels, automobilists and sales
of motor boats through the Want Ads
The Want Ads should be studied for
the finding of rooms, summer cot
tages and hotels.

sailed down to Hampton roads. but
strong British blockade prevented her
from going out to sea. That blockade
continued throughout the war. During
the years that followed the war she made
many cruises to the Mediterranean and
the south Atlantic. Her experiences just
before the civil war were mostly with
African slayers and pirate ships.
When the rebellion broke out the Con-
stellation proceeded to the Portsmouth
navy yard. In 1872 she was sent TO the
Mediterranean in pursuit of the CoDfeder-
ate ship Sumter. but during the two
Years that followed the two vessels never
came in sight of each other. In 1864 the
Constellation was made one of Farraguts
west Sulf squadron.
Soon after sine was sent north and from
1865 to 1861 she was receiving ship at
Norfolk then until 1870 she was receive
ing ship at Philadelphia: in 1871 she was

QUEzON, FOE OF POLICY,
QUITS PHILIPPINE SOCIETY
Declares Body Favors Indef-
mite Retention of Islands
by United States.


AIanuel Quezon. resident commits
sioher for the Philippine sIslands| in
Congress, haI resigned from the execu-
tive committee OF the Philippine So
c,ety and also as member. because he
is not in sympathy with the announced
purposes Of the society nor with the
course he says has been pursued by
the societys officers and members In
the affairs Of the islands.
Former President Taft. now a Yale
University professor. Is the honorary
president Of the organization. the ac-
tive president being Gen. Luke Wright.
former governor general Of the is
lands. The headquarters are In New
York.
Explains His Position.
Quezon in his letter of resignation
writes that he joined the society with
the honest belief that he could aid in
the promotion Of its announced pur-
pose Ito create more sympathetic in
terest between the American and Fill
pino people He soon suspected, he
goes on to say. that the real object was
toscreate public opinion in favor OF
the indefinite retention Of the islands
by the United States.
Quezon says he had opportunity to learn
at the first general meeting of the So
ciety the ideas Of it's members on that
subject. and he is firmly convinced that
while the society may graciously listen
to an appeal from the side OF indepen-
dence, it has fixed a view Of the subject,
and ii means to maintain that view with
all the opportunities and means at its
GOV
