Difference.
Between clothing made exactly right and clothing made "just to sell." The latter may look well for a few days, but wear and weather soon betray the "just to sell" sort.
Clothing honestly made of honest stuff keeps its shape and style proves its quality the longer you wear it. That's economy.

THE CODNTRY'S PROBLEMS
She Has Many Serious Ones and She Needs Men of the Best Thought and Wisdom to Carry Out Her Purposes Plea For Ability and Honesty In Pitblio Life.
Milwaukee, June 29.—Governor Theodore Roosevelt of New York was oscorted to the Milwaukee chamber of commerce yesterday just before the hour of closing and given a most enthusiastic reception. In addressing the bulls mid bears the famous colonel of the rough riders said it had been a very great pleasure to hint to come to Milwaukee. Continuing, the governor said "At tho end of the 19tli century, as this country moves along on the road tr greatness, she has many serious problems to face, and when she needs men to curry out her purposes she can call upon men of the best thought and wisdom, just such men as I am now addressing. You of the great west hold in your hands the future of this nation. It rests with you and you will, I know, show yourselves equal to the task. We always have with us our home problems, and we should aim always to get into public life men of courage, of common sense and of honesty.
No amount of genius or brilliancy can atone for a lack of the olement of fearlessness, of decency and horsesense and no one or two of these will avail unless the mun has all three. The ablest man alive, if corrupt, is a danger to the country or community to just tho extent of his brilliancy and ability and you, gentlemen, are in honor bound to allow him to feel tho weight of your disapproval. "I don't care how brave a man is, if he is a natural born fool he is not worth knocking in the head. "If a man is lacking iti common honesty he is not fit for public luo no matter how brilliant he may be "We have certain important foreign problems which confront us. The United States has evidently as great a destiny on tho Pacific as on the Atlantic ocean, and whether we live on the former or the latter we must be equally interested in the welfare of the nation upon every foreign question, and we should all .-ee that the nation rises on the Pacific as on the Atlantic, and we have a right to demand of ail good citizens to stand by the president, as he upholds the honor and the glory and tho greatness of tho flag, no matter what the individual ideas unty he regarding the Philippine question. We cannot fool with any ono who bears arms against our rights and our destiny cho people of the world must be made to realize that we fear nones and -tb we must be obeyed whenever 'y%%re cfutending for onr rights. We'Trhsfc''treat tho.se who are against us as the}' deserve. and when we have proven them the right ana justness of our Cause, then we nm-t treat them with humanity and libera Ii y, and becans.i of their weakness we should be more than ordinarily generous and just with them.
And we want to make it understood that while we fear no nation and shirk no duty we desire above all things peace, and we feel that there are three great nations which have interests together. These are America, England and Germany. These should work hand in hand for the solution of the questions that now confront us in the .Pacific. Gentlemen, 1 :iank you."

APPEAL TO TANNER
Nonunion Negro Miners of Pana Con* fer With the Governor. Springfield, Ills., June 29.—O. H. Dorsey and R. H. Prinkelton, a committee appointed by the nonunion negro miners of Paun, saw Governor Tanner late yesterday in regard to the conditions at Pana.
They stated that the Pana operators had brought them from Alabama under false pretenses, agreeing to give them a contract for one year or as long as they wanted to work and had failed to do so. They claimed that the operators had not discharged them, but had simply closed up their mines, paid off all the miners that wanted a settlement, throwing them out of employment, leaving many with little money, and women and children even sufferiug for the necessities of life and uablo to leave Pana. They said the operators have been asked to make provision for sending the negroes back to Alabama, but declined, saying they had all they could do to look after their own affairs, and have absolutely failed to assist their late employes in any manner. They declared the union miners had become the best friends of the nonunion negro miners and that Mayor Coruian is doing what he can to aid them.
Governor Tanner expressed his regret at the condition of affairs in Pana and his sympathy with the negro miners and said when he obtained the list he would see what he could do for them.

TWO JAPANESE BODIES
From the Plag'iu? Ship Nippon Maru Found In Su.n Francis'•«» Hay. San F.ancisco, June 29.—The bodies of two Japanese sailors of the plague ship Nippon Maru were found in the bay yesterday and towed to a point off shore by fishermen, who were afraid to touch the bodies more than was necessary to attach a rope to them for towing purposes. The coroner was notified and the bodies were taken to the morgue, where every precaution is being taken to prevent any spread of disease, should the men have carried any germs with them iu the, bay.
On the trip of tho Maru from Honolulu to this city, a young Japanese girl died of some mysterious disease and was buried at sea an hour after death. Apoplexy was given as the cause of her death, but the affliction seldom seizes ono so young, and the Japanese never die of the complaint, S
It is believed the disease has been stamped out from the Maru, but she will bo k'pc iu quarantine for some time as a precautionary measure.

FOB GEM DISEASES
Dr. Loew Discovers a
New
Treatment For Diphtheria Other Diseases.
EXPERIMENTS IN MUNICH
And This Country HaveRccn Carried on For Several Years In Cola boration With L)r. 1-t. Kiiiiiuuiuli—Promises to Supercede the Scrum Treatment— Principle of New Discovery.
Washington, June £9. Dr. Oscar Loew, one of the expert vegetable pathologists of the agricultural department, has developed to what he believes is a point of practical use anew treatment for germ diseases which promises to supersede tfie serum treatment now in use in diphtheria, fevers and many other diseases. Dr. Loew's work has been carried on for several years iu collaboration with Dr. R. Emmerich. The experiments have been conducted in the laboratories of Munich and this country. The results never have been published in full, but have been such as to warrant introducing the treatment into actual hospital practice.
Tho treatment is similar in some respects to tho serum treatment, but de? pends on a different principle, the basic idea being the presence of a class of ferments known as enzymes, which are produced by the same bacteria that produce the disease. It is because of the production, or rather overproduction, of a certain enzyme that disease such as typhoid will "run its course" aud then die out of the system. The bacteria in this case, it is stated, are simply killed by the ferment, they produce. The object of the new treatment is to produce a pure enzyme, which introduced into the human system, will kill the disease germs without injuring the patient. This differs from the principle of inocculatiou for smallpox aud other diseases, where the object is to give the patient a mild type of the disease to render him immune to the more virulent type.
Dr. Loew aud his colleague, Dr. Emmerich, have studied aud cultivated the enzymes of various diseases aud, it is claimed, have found that the enzymes of ccrtain bacteria will kill, not only their parent germs, but also the germs of cholera, typhoid fever, antharax, diphtheria, black plague, staplilococci and probably goucocci.
CONFKDEK ATK GHAVES
Those In Arlington National Cemetery Are Well Cared For. Washington, June 29.—At tho instance of Adjutant General Corbin, Quartermaster General Luddingtou recently instituted an investigation of the published report that the government was neglecting the graves of the confederate dead iu the National cemetery at Arlington-.
The report of Major T. E. True, the depot quartermaster who lins charge of Arlington, has just been filed at the war department. He says: "There are 13(3 confederate soldiers, civilians and stato prisoners now interred at Arlington National cemetery. Of the number, 126 are known and 10 aro unknown. Tlieso dead are buried with other honorable dead in the cemetery, their graves are known and recorded, are marked with headstones very similar to those marking the graves of union soldiers, bearing the name, but not the regtmeut, company or state, as iu the case of union soldiers are well sodded and cared for, according to regulations, precisely as the graves of all the other dead in that cemetery are cared for. Iu short, the confederate dead are honorably interred and houorably cared for. It is hardly probable that they would be so well cared for in any other than a national cemetery."
CANADA AFitAID
Of Reciprocity Treaty Between This and British West Indian Countries. Washington, June 29. In official circles the course of Canada iu seekiug to deal with the British West Indian commissions, which have recently beon here to negotiate reciprocity treaties, is regarded as significant of Canada's desire to enjoy all the trade concessions which this country secures with our British neighbors to the southward. The invitation to tho several commissions come from the Canadian government, aud not from mdou as was first stated. Two of the commissions have already accepted it and are in Ottawa conferring with tho authorities there. Canada and Bermuda have a convention with a "favored nation" clause, but beside the same rates as are granted to the United States, Canada desires further trado arrangements, and doubtless will sccuro concessions, though the great distauce between the ports of Canada anil the West Indies is likely to negative these advantages to a large extent.

BRUTAL TREATMENT
Btory of an American Cltlaeii W Was a Guatemalan Prisoner. New Orleans, June 29.—The ster ship Breakwater has reached this She had as passengers the priuci tors in a story of Guatemalan brntall in which American citizens flgure\ victims. The oase is one which weu. brought to the attention of W. Godfrey Hunter, American minister to Guatemala and Honduras, but in which ho failed to act.
lis
The two passengers were John Bi Richards and W. H. Harris. Richards sheltered some Americaus who were presumed by the Guatemalans to be filibusterors. By the kindness which lie showed these men, Richards probably placed himself under suspicion of revolutionary teudeucics. He had. lived in Costa Rica for five years before he. went to Guatemala.
Richards told his story to a reporter as follows: "Some months ago Harris came to me and talked me into a prospecting tour in tho Zacapa district. We located a claim where we washed out $17 worth of gold in an hour. Full of our discovery, we went to the capital of the province, where we meant to prove our claim. We got a lawyer, but before we had iiuished, the Jefe, or head man of tho* province, told us to leave the country. Instead, we weut back to our claim. Troops were sent after us. Harris escaped. "I was captured, taken back to Zacapa and thrown into a filthy room with 36 criminals. I wired Minister Hunter of my arrest, telling him I was absolutely innocent of any wrongdoing. Here is the original telegram I received in reply:
I have received your telegram of yesterday relative to your order of expulsion authorities claim to have proof to justify order. "It was signed 'W. Godfrey Hunter.' "I was arrested on June 10," continued Richards, "kept in the Zacapa jail for 36 hours, aud then taken to Porto Barrios, at tho end of a rope aud under heavy guard. There I was locked up in a filthy cell and kept for two days without food. When the Breakwater arrived," I was put aboard and my fare paid to this country. My treatment was as cruel as it was unjustifiable. On the Breakwater I fouud Harris. He had slipped into Porto Barrios, where the authorities had located him, and hustled him aboard the ship, paying his fare to Belize. "I was almost dead, as a result of the treatment I received, when I was put aboard tho Breakwater. We intend to take up our case with the authorities at Washington and see if we cannot obtain some redress. Americans are absolutely helpless in Central America."
ELLEN C. JOHNSON
Death Invades the Woman's International Congress at London. London, June 29. Mrs. Ellen C. Johnson, superintendent of the Massachusetts Women's Reformatory prison, died yesterday at the Loudon residence of the bishop of Rochester, Right Rev. JilHward Stewart Talbot t, D. D., where she was a guest.
Mrs. Johnson had been iu a weak state of jieahli for several days previous to reading her paper before the Woman's Iniernational Congress.

Death came suddenly iu the presenee of'the bishop's wife. Dr. Barrows' diagnosis of the cause of death was augina pectoris.
The fellow delegates of the deceased were much shocked at her death, as Mrs. Johnson attended the duchess of Sutherland's reception Monday, aud was apparently in high spirits. The remains will probably be shipped to New York Saturday.
