(Thousand Foot Skyscraper of Equitable May Never Be Built, However. POLICY HOLDERS OBJECT. EXPENSE ENTAILED IN ERECTION OF MONSTER BUILDING WOULD BE NEAR $10,000,000 MORTON FAVORS IT. New York, Aug. 7. The Building Department has officially approved the. plans for the proposed 10,000,000 Blxty-two-Btory office building designed for the Equitable Life Assurance Society to replace its present building on Broadway. The structure is designed to cover the Broadway block bounded by Nassau, Pine and Cedar streets. Although the plans have been approved it is still very doubtful if the thousandfoot skyscraper will ever be erected by the Equitable for a controversy has arisen over the advisability of such a more. The officials of the society have just Issued a statement to the effect that they have not yet. come to any definite decision regarding a new building. When the intention of putting ;.p the sixty-two-story structure was recently announced it evoked much criticism on the part of the policy holders, who objected to the expense which it would entail. , Paul Morton, President of the society, has called attention to the fact that the present building yields so small an income something under 3 per cent that its disappearance is practically decided on, but nothing is settled as yet as to the nature or site of the structure which is to be erected In its stead. "Millie, dem-, is your papa's ob jection to me?" "He says you don't seem to have any definite object or purpose in life, Barry" "Yet he knows I've been coming to see yon for five straight years!" Chicago Tribune. Every Woman in This Vicinity will be glad to know that local grocers now have in stock "OUR-PIE," a ready to use preparation in three varieties for making lemon, chocolate and custard pies. By purchasing and preparing the choicest pie ingredients in large quantities the manufacturers are able to name the low retail price of 10 cents for a package which makes two large pies. A very economical and satisfactory food product for everybody.

DECREES MUST STAND

Exequaturs of American Consuls to Honduras Will Not Be Canceled. UNITED STATES SURPRISED. Washington, Aug. 7. Hoduras refuses to revoke the decrees issued by President Davila canceling the exequaturs of American Consul Drew Linard and Vice Consul Virgil C. Reynolds at Ceiba on the ground that they had interfered in the internal politics of Honduras, and that, with the Vice Consuls of France and Norway, they advised the surrender of Ceiba to the revolutionists. The decree of cancellation already has been published in the official gazette of Honduras, .which, in refusing to revoke it, takes the view that such action would wound the sovereignty of the Government and place it in a bad position before the other Central American states. The action of Honduras is a surprise to the State Department, as it was confidently hoped that President Davila would revoke the decree as an act of ccrrtrtesy, if for no other reason, so that the consular officers would be free to continue in the discharge of their duties, leaving the general question of the charges a"ectlng them a subject for futu. c asideration when all the evidence has been fully considered by both Governments. MODERN SdrTGE"RY. fine Savins I. One of It. Most Important Consideration. Time saving is one of the most important considerations in all surgery. Any major operation lasting more than au hour and a half entails an additional risk. In operations of long duration the chances of recovery are comparatively small. This is due to shock, to the cumulative effect of the anaesthetic, to loss of blood and to lowering of the patient's temperature by th exposure of internal areas to the air. Because of this the best surgeons work with a mechanical precision and economy of movement. Everything is ready before the operation commences; an assistant is at hand to look after the details ofs actual work, such as holding back the edges of the Incision, adjusting the ligatures, etc.; an expert in anaesthesia handles the chloroform and watches the subject's pulse and respiration In order that the operator's time may be devoted wholly to one point, and a deft nurse, adept In the use of every instrument, needle and chemical preparation, la at the surgeon's elbow ready to hand out at a word sometimes before the word the shining implements already filed In the order of their probable use. Two visiting surgeons at one of the New York hospitals got a markedly varying percentage of mortality in a common abdominal operation. "What is the difference between the two operators?" I asked of one of the house staff in attendance. "About twenty minutes," he said succinctly. McClure's. On this day we are

Secretary Wright Pleased With Rogers' Report. Washington, Aug. 7. Secretary Wright had a long conference with Richard Reed Rogers, general counsel for the Isthmian Canal Commission, who has just returned to Washington from Panama. Mr. Wright said that Mr. Rogers's report on conditions on the isthmus was eminently satisfactory. Kotnlnx Left For Armament. Two young Texas men were talking over the many strange things they had seen and beard in New England. "That man I was talking with yesterday," said one of them, "he told mr that when two fellers in his section have a dispute about land or anything they Just go to law and sue each other for damages or get an affldavy or something of the kind." "That's all well enough for the on that wins," said the other man, "but how about the feller that loses? Does he go out and buy a gun and get even or wbat-all?" "As near as I can make out," said his friend, "by the time it's settled the man that loses hasn't any money to go buying guns or even hiring 'em, and If he owns one It's more'n likely to be in pawn." Youth's Companion. Barrie'a Juvenile Coworker. While J. M. Barrie was composing his play, "Peter Pan," he went to a children's supper party. Among the guests was a little boy whose healthy appetite provoked from his mother the pleading threat, "You will be ill tonight." "No, mother; not till tomorrow," was the calm response of the contented creature of the moment. It caught and pleased the ear of Mr. Barrie, who put it into bis play and promised to the juvenile joint author a halfpenny royalty upon every performance. Paid For the Aavlce.

AUCKLAND EXCITED Citizens Grow Feverish as the American Fleet Approaches.

GREAT RECEPTION PLANNED Auckland, Aug. 7. As the American battleship fleet draws near, excitement in Auckland grows feverish. An immense army of laborers is engaged in completing the decorations and the illuminations. The water front and the city present a magnificent spectacle. The main streets are being transformed into fairy bowers of palms and bunting, among which are transparencies bearing portraits of President Roosevelt, King Edward, Admiral i Sperry, the late Premier Richard Seddon and the present Premier, Sir Joseph Ward. Everywhere are the intertwined flags of America and England, and every where Americans and Britishers are fraternizing. The Government buildings will present a perfect blaze of lights, arranged to depict the fighting top of a battle ship. The fleet is expected to arrive Sunday morning. ON A MAN HUNT Posse Is Searching Kankakee Swamps for Assailant Of Worn t. A LYNCHING MAY FOLLOW. Laporte, Ind., Aug. 7. The Kankakee swamps are being searched for a fiend who attacked Mrs. Geo. Schoon over, wife of a well-known farmer of Davis Township, Starke county, and managed to escape before she could notify the neighbors. Mrs. Schoonover was alone at home. She fought with desperation, but the fellow soon overpowered her. With revolver pressed to her head he then forced his demands, though she continued her struggles until most of her clothing was torn off. After the' fiend released her she started on a run to where her husband was working a mile away, falling exhausted at his feet. The posse is so enraged that a lynching may follow if the culprit is caught. "What! Going to leave us so' soon, Thomas?" "Sorry, sir, but I must tell you as 'ow I can't possibly put up with the missus any longer." "But. Thomas," appealingly, "Just stop and think how long I've put up with her!" Judge. 824 MAIN STREET

OILS FROM FISH. Valuable Themselves, aa Are Also Their Byproducts. The preparation of oil from aquatic animals for both medicinal and techUical purposes is of great importance. The principal oil producers are the whales, porpoises, blackflsh, seals, walrus, menhaden, herring, cod, haddock, pollock, hake, cusk, ling, shark, dogfish, nlliyator and turtle. Various 'subsidiary products are obtained from these aquatic oils aaJ form a saurce of considerable profit to the refiner. Among the more important of these products may be noted the following: At a low temperature there may be separated from all varieties of aquatic oils a solid fat or grease known as "foots" or "stearin" which is somewhat similar to the tallow obtained from sheep and oxen. It is used as a substitute for tallow from sheep and oxen In sizing yarns, as emollient In leather dressing, etc. By bleaching the oils a semisolid fat known aa "sperm soap," "whale soap," "menhaden soap," etc., according to the variety of oil treated, is produced. This material is used In smearing sheep, washing fruit trees, soap manufacture, etc. By refining sperm oil spermaceti is obtained, and this Is used principally in candle making, as an ointment for medicinal purposes, for producing a polish oa linen In laundering and for self lubricating cartridges. After the oil is extracted the resulting wcrap or refuse Is dried and sold as fertilizer. The. Twilight Or I4fto.

Heart Troubles The heart may be weak just the same as the eyes, stomach or other organs. It often happens that a person is born with a weak heart. Then again disease, fevers, over-exertion, anxiety, nervousness, rheumatism, etc. weaken the heart. The result is shortness of breath, palpitation, pain in the heart, or in some of the nerves of the chest or abdomen. The heart should be strengthened with a tonic, and for this nothing equals Dr. Miles Heart Cure. "I had LaGrippe last fall as I thought in a mild form.
