Severe Lung Trouble

While we all know that plenty of
fresh air and good food are necessary
to persons suffering from lung trouble.
something more is needed to bring about
medicine for throat and lung troubles.

showing that 1t brought about good re-
suits in a number of cases which were
declared hopeless. that all sufferers who
are not benentting otherwise should at
least investigate what 1t has done
for others. 1t may be the means of re-
storing you to health. Investigate this

URGES BALLOT FOR
DISTRICT CITIZENS
Major W. o. Owen Refers to
Discrimination in Assessing
Real Estate.

Before a large assembly gathered at
the Typographical Temple last night,
Major w. o. Owen, U. S. A. retired,
brother of the Senator from Oklahoma,
made an address on self-government
and strongly advocated that the citi-
zens Of the District OF Columbia be
given the ballot.
Major Owen Described the present
government of the District, and then
pointed out its defects. He referred
to the discrimination in the assessments
OF the real estate under the present
system and cited the cases revealed by
Tom L. johnson in 1892, and also those
recently reported by the George COM
m ttee in the House.
The audience was plainly in SYM
pathy with the plea which Major Owen
made and his words met with hearty
applause. Major owen declared he
favored the plan that the District be
represented in both houses Of Congress.

TIMES ASKED TO AID
GIRLS HUNT FOR DOG
Youngsters Mourn Missing Pet,
So Paper Decides to Help in
Search for Animal.

Sorrowing over one of the only real
tereavements Of childhood, the loss OF
favorite pet and companion, little
Kathyrn and Frances Ward, have asked
The Times to extend its influence and
power of obtaining results where priv
ate effort fails, in the finding of their
companion and protector, big female
St Bernard dog, that has been missing
from the Ward home for days.
The little girls are distressed beyond
measure. They have sought In vain
throughout the neighborhood of their
home at 625 Third street northeast, for
news of the strayed pet. No one, how
ever, seems to know or to have seen the
faithful playmate, whose presence
means so much to lonesome little girls.
In this extremity, The Times Is an
swering the appeal, and this afternoon.
every home in Washington will have a
picture of the missing one, SO that IL
may be identified. The finder viii alle-

THREE IN HOT RACE
FOR NOMINATION AS
REGISTER Of WILLS
HyattsviIIe Aspirant Out Against
Two Organization Men for
Democratic Plum.

HYATTSvILLE, Md, Jan. H.-One OF
the most interesting features OF the
Democratic primaries in this county this
summer will be the contest for the
nomination of register of Wills. So far
there are three pronounced candidates
In the feld-George p. Hickey, Of Hy-
attsville: William A. Miller, the present
Incumbent. and Henry St. J. l.. Briscoe,
at present clerk to the board OF county
commissioners.
Mr.. Hickey is q son of former Justice
Of the Peace John r. Hickey. and ex-
cept for being an election Official one
year, has never held or asked for a
political Office. He In making deter
mined canvass OF his friends throughout
the county. Both Mr.. Miller and Mr..
Briscoe belong to the organization wing
Of the party. and 1t Is conjecture
which one OF the two the leaders will
support. II Is said the organization will
keep hands of, and let them fight 1t out.
Any other course, It Is said, would mean
a tight within the ranks.
Friends of Mr.. Miller claim he has
made an efficient officer and Is en-
titled to q second term, in accord
ance with custom. Friends Of Mr..
Briscoe point to his services as clerk
to the county commissioners as q
sufficient guarantee Of his capabil-
tiles to NIL the office he is seeking.
Mr.. Briscoe says he has been ambi-
tious to be register of wills for sew
eral years. and claims that he has
stood aside for other aspirants sew
xrfl IN un
this time. With these two candidates
fighting It out in the lower end Of the
county the chances for Mr.. Hickey
look bright for him to capture the
nomination, as he stands an excellent
chance, 1t Is said, to carry the upper
districts, where the greater portion
of the vote in the county is located.

Ceremony Standing on Running

SAN FRANCISCO. June 21.-The

First Congregational Church. was re-
lieved of the necessity of going all
the way from his residence to the
church to marry a couple yesterday
when Frederick Ford Conger of Chico
and Miss Helen Kathryne Hunter of
Spokane presented themselves at his
door and asked to be married in an
automobile.
They had the automobile and the
license, and witnesses enough were
gathered from the crowd that sur
rounded the machine, as crowds do
in such a case, so the genial pastor
could not refuse and he stood on the
step Of the machine and read the
marriage service while the bridal
couple stood in the tonneau.
Conger explained that he had pro-
posed to his wife in the same auto
mobile, and they had decided that
they would be married in 1t.

POLISH PRIEST
WILL FIGHT FOR
RICH ORE LAND
Sold Tract for TrifIing Sum and
Then Gave Deed to Mineral
Rights as Accommodation.

CLEVELAND, June 21.-Can the
Rev. w. Anzelm Mlynarczyk. 6S67
Broadway s f.. Catholic priest and
publisher of Polish newspaper, re-
cover mineral rights in a tract of
Michigan land he formerly owned.
which is said to be yielding to its
present owners hundreds of thou
sands of dollars in iron and lead ore
production?
This question Attorney Henry Du
Laurence (Niedzwiedzki), of Cleve-
land. and a Michigan lawyer, will try
to settle for the priest.
Seeks Witness in Europe.
Il may even go to Europe this
summer to take dispositions of wit
nesses to the transactions by which
the land changed hands. and who
since have returned to the old coun-
try" Du Laurence said.
The Rev. Father Mlynarczyk is not
rich man. He is well known to his
countrymen in Cleveland, as he fire.
quently appears in courts to act as
mediator between suing factions, and
to settle disputes.
The priest and his attorney Du
Laurence, tell the following story Of
Father Mlynarczyk's connection with
the Michigan land:
In former years the priest lived in
Michigan. He owned a quarter sec
ton of land in Iron County, and in
1895 sold 1t for less than 81 900, but
reserved all rights to any minerals
which might be found.
Sends Guitclaim Deed.
Some years later, according to the
priest and his lawyer. the purchaser
wrote Father Mlynarczky at Cleve-
land. asking for a quitclaim deed to
the land. The purchaser declared, Du
Laurence says, that he could not car
ry on his agricultural work properly
because he did not hold a quitclain
deed. Father Mlynarczyk sent the
quitclaim title, believing it was simply
matter of accommodation.
we now learn the purchaser has
leased the land for 80 years to a min
ing corporation. and will receive 5000
for each of the first two years, and
$4,000 year for the remaining 2S,"
Du Laurence says.
In addition, he is to receive so
cents a ton on the ore taken out.
Those rights to lease for mining and
royalty on ore production, we contend
are really Father Mlynarczyk's"

Society is Ready for Clash to See Who Is the
Real Leader Of Colony.

There are the makings of as pretty
a social fight in Newport, R. l., this
summer as ever delighted the dowag-
ers, and Mrs. james McVicker, of
New York. who as Mrs. Jack Horner
was for many years social favorite
in Atlanta, will be a central figure in
the fray.
Mrs. McVicker will be interested
as the half lister of Mrs. Margaret
Emerson Vanderbilt, the second wife
of Alfred G. Vanderbilt. The second
Mrs. Vanderbilt is coming next week
for the first time to Newport, where
the first Mrs. Vanderbilt. divorcee,
lives and holds majestic sway as So
cial leader
Society Is AfIutter.
All society is afiutter following the
announcement that Alfred Gwynne
Vanderbilt and his bride, who was
Mrs. Margaret Emerson McKim, d.
vorced wife Of DR. Smith Hollins Nc
Kim, of Baltimore, are to return to
Newport and open Vanderbilt's world
famous estate, Oakland Farm.
What interests society is the first
meeting between the present Mrs.
Vanderbilt and Mrs. Elsie French
Vanderbilt What interests them
more is the conjectural subsequent
behavior of the persons involved.
Mrs. Elsie French Vanderbilt is
Newport's leader. To the wife of
Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt belongs
that position, by right of eminent do
main. Society is wondering where it
all will end.
The position Of the new Mrs Van
derbilt is conceded to be delicate and
no less so than that her allies and
friends, foremost among whom is Mrs.
James McVicker. The McVicker have
a summer home at Newport, and nat
rrally will be on the scene of the fight.
And being a relative Of the party
concerned. Mrs. McViCker will be a
cynosure of lorgnettes and monocles.
Tact. diplomacy, self possession. sa-
voir faire-all win be required of
her.

Will Mr.. Vanderbilt and his new
wife and her friends be invited to at
tend the same social functions, or will
they cut Cle another cold? VIII the

WOMEN
LAUDED BY WIFE
Of GOVERNOR
Mrs. Strong Declares That Life
In North Develops Strong
Character In Both Sexes.

SEATTLE, June 21.-In 1900 in
Nome. Alaska, a woman's club was
started with about 100 members. and
one Of them was Mrs. ]. F. A. Strong,
wife of the new Governor Of Alaska.
The club is called Kagoyah Kozga.
"Kozga," said Mrs. Strong, rs the
name for the gathering place of the
EskimOs, the scene of their commun-
ity work In the busy time Of year
Kagoyah means aurora light
The Alaska woman" said Mrs
Strong in reply to query. is much
like her sisters the world over. Per-
haps she shows more courage, more
independence, than the women of
other countries. The pioneer spirit
is not confined to the sterner sex. and
the pioneer women of the North have
shown their heroism side by side with
their husbands. fathers and brothers.
Alaskan Women Refined.
DO not forget that there are re-
fined and G. ted women in Alaska,
as well where; women who
are dcir ~ full share in the
building empire. The woman
OF the n nd has her clubs. her
social affj . She is most resource
full and is exceedingly hospitable. In
short she is, for the most part, like
her sisters from Maine to California.
1T is a wonderful country for fine
characters, with Just the same effects
on women as men. If they are brave
enough. the vastness of Nature and
the nd M e ..
people will give them character
depths undreamed OF before, and
make of them a nobler and finer
women.
Thinks Spirit Is Better
Il do not know just what 1t is that
most Of all bestows that individual
charm to so many after a residence IN
the North, but I believe it is largely
the plane upon which the people meet.
and the absence of some of the in
humanities and much Of the sharp
competitive spirit that are found in
older or more crowded communities
Does II not seem a pity that there
should exist an almost embarrassing
surplus of women in some parts of
the East, and that great mass of Eng
lish sisterhoOd across the ocean, with
not nearly enough men to go around.
while you who are ambitious to see
Alaska come into her own. as a per
manent land, filed with homes and
happy families, are hungry for a bet
ter representation OF your sex?"
Mrs. Strong has no children and the
great motherly instinct in her nature
seems to take in, in the way OF some
women, all those who come within her
life's circle whom she can help in any
way She gneake Of the children of
Alaska with maternal tenderness,
which bodies well for all within her
range OF sollcitude.
