Under Commodore Perry.

The Constellation saw service off the
east coast of South America in 1919 un-
der the command of Commodore Perry
He died shortly after arriving at the
mouth of the Orinoco. The Constella-
tion returned to the United States in
1920. But she was soon sent to the
West Indies to help suppress lawless-
ness afloat.
After a period of tranquility on the
seas the government combined with
Great Britain to suppress the slave
traffic. On that duty it fell to the lot
of the Constellation to capture about
the last of the slavers. the schooner
Cora. with 100 slaves on board.
A young officer was sent with seven
seamen to take the prize back to Lii
IBERIA. He had a hard time of it, and
spent thirty days on what was nothing
but a floating pest hole. Many of the
slaves went insane. Two of the old
crew started a mutiny, which was just
suppressed in time. officers and crew
suffered from poor food. Liberia was
made at last. The Cora. the last Of the
African slavers. arrived in Brooklyn
In 1870.

War With Tripoli.

The Constellation encountered the
frigate La Vengeance in 1900, and the
latter sought port in a sinking condi-
ton. Alterations were made in the
Constellation after that action and she
was turned over to Capt. Murray. In
the same year the Bashaw of Tripoli
demanded tribute of the United States,
and in 1901, getting no response. de-
clared war against this country. A
Mediterranean squadron was formed
and to II went the Constellation, still
under Murray. The Constellation ar
rived off Tripoli in May. 1902, and en-
gagged a dozen gunboats and q land
force at the same time, INJECTING much
damage.
The war of 1912 found the navy in
very imperfect condition. The Con-
stellation. while anchored in Hampton
roads. was exposed to the attack of
several British vessels. Three night
attempts made to attack her were frus-
trated. The vessel, under command of
Capt. Tarbe1. remained on blockade
duty until the end of the war.
After peace the country again turned
it's attention to the protection and de-
yelopment of it's commerce. Two squad
rons, one for home and one for for
eign duty, were established, and the
Constellation went on foreign service.

ROOSEVELT SICK. BUT RECOVERING
Has Explored Brazilian River for Thousand Miles and Discovered
 New Tribe of Natives.

NEW YORK, May Dispatches were received late yesterday from i Colonel Roosevelt conveying the in formation that he had recently ex- perienced a severe illness but was re covering The delay of the party in reaching the coast was due 10 the col onels illness The message does not state what the nature of the sick ness was but it is believed to be due to exposure in the tropical swamps, l to which so many venturesome whites have succumbed.
 Roosevelt's message states that his party discovered and explored an un- known river for more than 1000 miles from it's junction with the Anna zon. The river is believed to be the stream called the "River of Doubt" on the old Portuguese maps, and is said never to have been explored by whites beyond few hundred miles from the Amazon.
 South Americans, who are in New York, believe that the unknown tribe of natives mentioned in Rooseyelts dispatches belong to the Pauhates. The latter are known to inhabit the upper reaches of the River of Doubt" Several members of the tribe have been taken prisoners by other tribes and have been held as slaves. They are described as being of small stat ure and wear no bodily covering of any nature.

NORTHWESTERN HAS
 FEW PASSENGERS

SEATTLE, May 1.-The North western sailed last night for Valdez and other Alaskan ports with the lightest passenger list of any steamer leaving for the northland in several months. Officials of the transporta- tion companies expect few quiet weeks before the busy summer sea son begins. All northerners who were bound for the interior and wished to get home before the opening of nav igation have gone north.
 A big summer tourist trade is an ticipated as greater number of en- quiries have been received regard ing the schedule of sailings and the accommodations offered than ever be- fore. The passengers on the North western for Valdez were John Olson, Mrs. Spiers, Miss Merlin and Roy Houshan. She also carried eleven second-class passengers.
