HISTORY REPEATS.

During the war between France and
England In the first years of the last
century the shipping interests of the
United States grew to wonderful pro-
portions. Many Americans were over
joyed at it, but John Randolph said
that there would be reaction and
added "The present prosperity is a
mushroom, fungus growth Of the
war. Be ready for the cessation when
the war In the foreign countries ends"
The same language can now, 10
years afterwards, be applied to the
steel industries Of this country and
to the nation in general.

It had been their first separation,
and during one week the husband had
sent his dear little wife ten letters, If
teen picture postcards and four tele-
grams.
Why, then, this touch Of coldness in
her welcome on his return?
Dearest he whispered, as he drew
her to his family bosom, what is
wrong? What have done to upset my
little ducksy-wopsy?"
"Oh, George" she replied in broken
tones, you didn't send me kiss In
your seventh letter"
George thought like lightning for a
moment before he replied:
II know l didn't, petsy, but I had
steak and onions that night for supper,
and you wouldn't like me to kiss you
after eating onions, would you?"
1T wouldn't be bad idea," said the
boys father, IF you did little work
during your summer vacation. You
surely don't need three whole months
to rest up after the little work you did
at college. When was your age I
earned enough during the summer to
pay my college expenses"
Eyes" replied the boy, and look at
the result. You can't play tennis at
all, your golf is joke, and you don't
know as much about Ty Cobb's batting
average as the lowest paid Office boy
in your establishment"

those who have estimated, that the

would make the cost of printing

STROLLER AND BAY 60
 TEN ROUNDS TO DRAW
 BEFORE SMALL CROWD
Lack of Attendance Mars What Would Have Been a Very In- tereSting Contest in NaCo Sunday Afternoon.

Before a very small crowd, Sunday afternoon, in Naco, Frankie Bay and Larry Strouer worked ten rounds to a draw The boxers were, undoubtedly. disheartened by the attendance and did not show to the best of their abil- ity. The exhibition was clean through out and proved to the fans that under the proper circumstances they would put up an extra good battle.
 The contest was devoted almost en- tirely to Bays leading and Strouer's clever boxing Neither boy was hurt to any extent, though Strouer came into contact with Bays right and received a black eye.
 The crowd in Naco was large. A great many people came from Douglas to see the bout, a large percentage. hohOwever, had their attention divert ed by other amusements in the border town, which accounts for the very poor attendance.

RUSSIAN AMERICAN
 ASSOCIATION GROWS

PETROGRAD, July D. The Rus sian-American Association which, as previously announced in these dis patches, was organized here in April to foster commercial and social rela- tions between the two countries, has attracted over a hundred workers to it's ranks, among whom are a number of prominent public men.
 Baron R. R. Rosen, former ambassa- dor at Washington, was elected presi- dent of the Association, and A. N. Eorodiu his assistant. The members of the committee are distinguished Russian business men and social workers, such as F. N. Barabotde- Marny A. l. Halpern, r. A. Ivanov, N. s. Kurnokov, D. D. Pr0topopoy and H. B. TschaikowskL At the first meeting the former Consul General in New York Mr. LadijensH. expressed the opinion that this association undoubt- Cdly would meet with great favor in America. Even at the time of the Busso-Japanese war, notwithstanding the agitation aimed against Russia. the American statesmen showed an in- terest in Russia and were ready to es- tablish friendly relations, he said.
 Prof Mujuev expressed a desire to organize an exchange of professors be- tween America and Russia. D. D. Protopopov added the suggestion of organizing excursions to the United States. N A. Okunex. and others pointed out the necessity of organiz- ing an association in New York, simi- lar to that of Petrograd. Many mem bers of the Petrograd association are acquainted with wel-known American public workers, and they were asked by the chairman to lay the fopndation for the organization of a like associa- tion in America. The suggestion that classes in English be formed in con nection with this organization in Pet rograd met with great favor.

The most marvellous thing accom- plished in cinematography since that science was invented are The William son Submarine Motion Pictures. They will appear at the Orpheum Wednes- day What Jules Vernes vivid imag- nation did not quite succeed in paint ing for the mental eye in his classic description of a trip beneath the sea, are here pictured most fascinatinCiy. The pictures seem to take one to the bottom of the ocean, where one wan ders around as freely as in the air. takes a ramble in Neptunes botan- ical gardens, becomes acquainted with the family life of the fishes, visits wrecks of the last century and finally watches with breathless interest a fight to the death between a man and a tiger of the sea-a huge, blue. thrasher shark. These records of the actual conditions of the floor or the ocean are not merely something new they are cilestones on the road of cinematographic progress.
 These remarkable examples of deep sea photography, these first and only pictures ever made at the bottom oi the ocean, begin with scenes showing how the wonderful apparatus which made possible the taking of Subma- rine Pictures is utilized and handled. a peep into the marvellous invention of deep-sea picture making Then come scenes showing the native div CTS plunging from their boats 10 fol- low 10 the bottom of the crystal sea the coins thrown to them by tourists on an ocean liner. The audience is next taken under the ocean in the steel submarine photographic cham ber and here we see the divers scrambling for the elusive pennies on the very bed of the ocean
 Then begins a marvellous under wat CT journey of one hundred miles along the floor of the ocean that is like the realization of an expressing fairy tale. A wonderful and ever changing pano- rama is revealed of a world hereto fore unknown to man. During this ex- citing journey you visit the world famous marine gardens of the Baham- as. Strange fish, never seen before, swim past the camera chamber. The thrilling death battle between a dar- ing swimmer armed only with a knife. and twenty-four foot shark forms the sensational climax of these won der pictures
