Bladder weakness, most folks call it,
because they can't control urination.
While it is extremely annoying and

because he is regarded as the first

the London critical opinions show the
extent of the trump lately achieved
by Clark in the British metropolis.
The London Times reviewer wrote
"Mr. Clark returns to London with
program remarkable in many ways, par
tieularly for the variety and emotional
range of songs. 1t was as eventful a
program as it was possible to give. Mr..
Clark S intensity of dramatic percep-
tion and his extraordinary power of
expression made the whole recital a
most vivid musical experience.
The London Daily Mail said; "Mr.
Clark is a fine artist and in emotional
climaxes his singing was really thrill,

"Mr. Clark sang through varied
selection of songs with all his accus-
toned power and knowledge of effect, ("
said the critic of the Pail Mall Gazette.
" His method is undoubted, while his
voice remains as appealing as ever. "

reviewer wrote: "Mr. Charles W,

of the treaty providing a payment to Colombia which Colonel Roosevelt at- tackled as blackmail, MT. Dubois de- scribes the claims of Colombia for the unpaid annuities on the occasion of the Trans-Isthmian Railroad com pany, the reversionary rights in the Panama railroad and Panama's por- tion in the Colombian national debt. all of which, in his opinion, should be met by the United States.
 Under the contract of 1S67," he says, Colombia ceded the Trans Isthmian Railroad company to the Panama Railroad company for a per- iod of 99 years, and for this sale she was to receive $250,OO0 annually dur ing the life of the contract. At the time of the separation of Panama there were remaining GA annuities un- paid, amounting to $16,000,000. The concession also insured to Colombia reversionary rights to the Panama canal railroad at the expiration of the contract in 1867.
 Claims Total $36,OOO,OOO.
 ''The physical value of the rail- road shortly after the revolt, was placed at $16,446,0OO. In addition Colombia claims that she is entitled to several millions of dollars for that part of her national debt incurred in
