The Strathgarry is reported to have
met with pleasant weather conditions
on the northern voyage. Newcastle
harbor was filed with idle tonnage
at the time the Strathgarry received
its full cargo of fuel.
Several OF the larger mines in the
Newcastle district have been closed
down because of continued labor trou-
bles. Most Of the overseas tonnage

ports have been vessels of Norwegian
and Swedish register British steam

SPOKEN At

Nine hundred miles from his desti-
nation, one of the largest islands in
the Gilbert group, becalmed. for days
near the equator, Captain William J..
Weisbarth, veteran mariner, who clos
ed out his business interests in Ho-
nolulu and with his wife and four
companions departed June 5 in the lit
tie % foot sloop Teold, was spoken
to by Captain A. G. Neil, master Of
the British freighter Strathgarry that
today arrived at the port with more
than 5000 tons of Australian coal
In steaming from Puget Sound to
Sydney and Melbourne, the Strath-
garry followed a course that carried

| tie vessel, Captain Weisbarth stating
that he desired to report that himself
and all on board were we'll and happy.
The sloop appeared to be well provi-
stoned for the remainder of the cruise
to the Gilbert Islands.
Captain Weisbarth was given the
correct time from Strathgarry's chron-
onleters. The little Teoki was hauled
along side the Strathgarry and in dis
cussing his trip from Honolulu Cap
tain WeIsbarth stated that he had
been taken some distance of his
course because of trouble with his
chronometer.
With favorable winds and seas Cap
tain Weisbarth had reason to believe
that his command would be brought
to one of the largest of the Gilbert
Islands early in August.
In leaving Honolulu Captain Weis-
barth announced that he intended to
make his future home In the Gilberts..
He superintendent the construction Of
the little sloop, which on sailing out
of Honolulu harbor was laden to the
guards with provisions for a three
months cruise.
Captain Weisbarth is understood to

Henry E. Cooper While there the
party was given an opportunity for a
much needed rest after month spent

ers of the small sailing vessel. Adj

PRACTICAL PRESCRIPTION
AGAINST STOMACH AClDl TY

Niae-tenths Of all cases Of stomach
trouble nowadays are caused by too
much acid. In the beginning the stpm-
ach itself is not diseased but if the
acid condition is allowed to continue,
the acid is very likely to eat into the
stomach walls and produce stomach
ulcers which may render radical
surgical operation necessary even to
sprolong life. Therefore, ain acid
stomach is really a dangerous condi-
ton and should be treated seriously.
1t is utterly useless to take pepsin and
ordinary stomach tablets. The ex-
cess acid or stomach hyperacidity
must be neutralized by the administers
ton Of an efficient antacid. For this
purpose the best remedy is bisurated
magnesia taken in teaspoonful doses
In a fourth of a glass of water after
each meal Larger quantities may be
used if necessary as it is absolutely
harmless. Be sure to ask your drug
gist for the bisurated magnesia as
other forms of .magnesia make effect
i've mouth washes but they have not
the same action on the stomach as the
bisurated. For sale by Benson, Smith

1t is still March, tae month associated with groune

day. spring buds, harebacks. line blockades
lambs lions and all that It is a month of meteoro-
logical uncertainties. It is month that will expose
the tr,est weather prophet unless he prophesies the
worst Only month like March could produce
weather like this prelude to the vernal equinox
With the sun just having crossed the equator in it's
northward flight March turns loose snoWstorm
which would do credit to December or January--hon-
est winter months--and months which for the life
of them would not masquerade spring. Perhaps
II IS that March is not clear to it's status in tho
calendar IT is spring month for one day, maybe,
and winter month the next. II can produce June
weather at noon and be November an hour later
There are as many climates In March as in all the

WhQfchQk11O,U, John?

The Capitol corridors great places for gossip
and were the walls to have ears and tongue many
an interesting tale might be told daily. However,
but few of these conversations leak though Occa-
sonally some do. 49,,
Just at present the withdrawal Of Mr.. Gilbreath
from the race for commissioner Of agriculture ana
labor, and speculation to a most formidable candi-
date for that position, is the topic of conversation.
Probably the widest speculator in the state house
is the able assistant secretary of state, Mr.. John
Andrews. whose chief occupation seems to be the
discovery of mares nests, such gigantic steals
from the state treasury attempted by the Tribune,
and things like that Mr. Andrews is honest print
erman, and wouldn't pad bill under any considers
tion and when he finds in his mind that the Tribune
stole something his honest nature rebels: However,
Mr.. Andrews is keeping his charges very quiet no.
venturing to put them into print for he would nave
to prove them-and it would be awkward for him
when he could do it. He roasts the governor and
threatens the Tribune.
Were not for fear that this gentlemanly printer
man might call someone liar, it might be amusing,
and interesting to ask him what he knows abous
stealng-the Tribune kind, of course-but we won't
