nOOSEVELT WRITES THAT HE WILL BE (IIIADLE TO ATTEND
Ex-president Formally Declines Invitation 6f Wayne County to Attend Historical Celebration in October. DECLARES IT WOULD BE "SIMPLtf IMPOSSIBILITY" Letter Received by E. H. Harris Gives Full Reasons for Inability to Attend the Fall Festival. Colonel Theodore Roosevelt has formally declined the Invitation to par tlclpate In the Wayne county centennial anniversary celebration, to be held In October in connection with the Fall Festival. A letter was received today by E. II. Harris who visited the ex-president last week. In which Mr. Roosevelt said that it would be a simple Impossibility for him to visit Rich mond In the near future. Other business engagements of both political and non-political nature necessitated his refusal. These had. been arranged before Wayne county's Invitation waa extended and he found It impossible to rearrange an engagement In deference to the local committee's wishes. . But one day will be spent In Indiana this ' fall by the former president. Thla will be In the Interest of United States Senator Albert J. Beveridge and on this occasion It Is expected that Indianapolis will be the point visited. Although this has not been definitely decided by Senator Beveridge, who has the matter In charge, It la Improbable that Richmond will be selected. While Col. Roosevelt was yet In Europe the Young Men'a Business club determined to Invite him to attend and participate In the centennial anniversary of the county. This was done In a cablegram message and the club was encouraged when be answered that he would give the matter attention when he arrived In this country. A petition was prepared and signed by five thousand citizens of the county. This was presented to the former president at' hla office In the Outlook building In New York City last week, by E. H. Harris and W. N. Bailey, representing the Young Men's Business clsb. v ,- .-. r, , At that time be promised the committee that If It were possible he would visit Richmond. Later he told the Hon. William Dudley Foulke who waa hla guest at Oyster Bay and who also extended him an Invitation to visIt Richmond, that he would not be able to accept, because engagements previously made. - ., l . . The committee of the Fall Festival association .which has charge of the centennial - anniversary celebration was hopeful that Col. Roosevelt would be here, but accepts his regrets with a full knowledge of the facts. KEW YORK'S - LIABILITY LAW. Provisions ef Measure te Compensate Injurs Workers. The te called permissive employers' liability law recently enacted by the few York legislature' waa' vigorously opposed- by representatives of the railroads and of the Manufacturers' association oo the ground that It violated both the .state and federal constitutions. The State Worklogman's federation defended the measure. By It compensation for employees Is provided under a plan agreed upon by employer and employee. It amende the liability law by modifying the assumption of risk rule so that the fact that aa employee continues In hla work after discovering defects or violations of law by the employer shall not bar him from his right of action. , The fellow servant rule Is modified by making the employer liable for the begllgtnce of a person exercising any superintendence snd for the negligence of a person Intrusted with authority to direct, control or command any employee la the performance of the duty of such employee. It changes the bur den of proof as to contributory negligence so as to require the employer who has been proved negligent to assume too burden of proving: the con trlbutory negligence of the injured em pktyee. . It contains a provision Intended to Srvent aa employer from escaping Unity for defects in bis plant by em(ioylng a contractor or subcontractor. t then provides for what has been termed a permissive or voluntary compenaatloa scheme, by the consent of the employer snd any of his employees, which consent must be filed in the county clerk's ofnee. After such consent has been tiled the employer is relieved from liability under the employers' liability act and becomes, therefore, liable for all lujur.es to such , consenting employees snd for the compensation provided for by the bill. The compensation provided for con slats of the payment of four years wages in case of death, but not to ex Coed $3,000. It provides in case of injury for the payment to the Injured employee of one-half of hla decreased Eageo due to the injury, not to exceed .9 a week, snd such payments not to extend beyond n term of eight years.

fxWIGGAM WAS BETTER Indianapolis Boy Who Bested Ketchell Seemed to Outpoint "Kid" Dalton. "BATTLE ROYAL" WAS TAME The boxing carnival at the coliseum last evening drew a large crowd who thoroughly enjoyed the program of exciting mills. The science of the game, rather than the knock-out punches, was displayed. Ray Bronson of Indianapolis, one of the leading light weights of the country, refereed the match. In his ten round bout with "Kid Dalton of ndlanapolis. Howard Wiggam, aiso or tne capital city, naa a harder nut to crack than he did two weeks ago when he met Charley Ketchel. Although no decision was awarded by -the referee, Wiggam had the best of the go in the judgment of the crowd. Even a stlffer argument was made in the bout between Ray DeVinney and Randall "Double Barrel" Edmunds, both colored, which was to have gone ten rounds but by mutual agreement ended with the sixth. Ed munds was the favorite. The battle royal between five negroes was not up to expectations and was very tame. The mill between "Kid" Lane of this city and "Young" Dalton of Indianapolis , was , one-sided, with the local boy getting the worst of It Ed Falkner threw Billy Parsons in a one-fall grappling match after twenty minutes exertion. The anti-suffragists of Illinois have issued a pamphlet in which they say that the men of the country are at last waking up to the danger of woman suffrage. Heretofore, they Bay, men have taken the position that it was a question women should decide for themselves. Now realizing the dangers they have come out strongly against giving the women the ballot In proof of this statement they point to recent utterances of Senator Slihu Root, Nicholas Murray Butler and the Rev. Lyman Abbott They also say that a protest Is being circulated In Massachusetts which has already been signed by 150 influential men.

rHE FUEGIANS.
They Are Stwntod and Misshapen as Well as Hideously Ugly. ' At the two extreme ot i be American continent dwell the most wretched races ot beings tbe Eskimos at the north and tbe Fuegluos at tbe sontb. Of tbe two tbe Fuegians appear to be tbe lowest In the civilized scale, their general aspect being wretched and degraded. Tbelr hideously ugly faces express tbe grouses t stupidity, and tbelr persons are both stunted and misshapen. Tbe average belgbt of tbe men does not exceed tlve feet two inches, tbat of tbe women four feet eigbt lncbes. and owing to their habit of standing in a stooping attitude tbey look even less than their actual height. But, although tbey are veritable pygmies In stature, yet their bodies are exceedingly larjre. and tbelr general appearance la sucb as might result from tacking on to tbe trunk of a giant tbe arms and less of a child. Tbelr color appears to be a copper bronze, but as nearly all are begrimed with smoke it Is difficult to specify tbelr precise hue. Tbe very young children are light brown In color with the exception of tbe palms of tbe hands and tbe soles of tbe feet which are of a dirty yellow. Tbe beads of tbe adults are covered with coarse black hair which falls In lank masses to tbe neck behind and on each side of the face, but is cut away from before tbe eyes. Tbe forehead is low and retreating, tbe dom broad, flat and furnished with Immense nostrils, and tbe mouth Is very wide, with thick, protruding lips, the upper one being very much elongated. Tbe eyes are small and placed somewhat obliquely, tbe iris is Invariably black In color, and tbe white of tbe eye bas a distinctly yellowish tinge. Moreover, owing apparently to tbe lrri; tation produced by the smoke of tbe fires over which tbey are so constantly crouching, they are very generally blear eyed. Tbe teeth, although very much discolored, are. as a rule, regular and sound. The mep have naturally only a few black bristles scattered over tbe upper Up and cbin. These, however, are carefully extracted from time to time by means of two mussel shells, and very frequently tbe hair of tbe eyebrows Is removed by a similar process. Tbe males appear to pay no attention whatever to tbe dressing of their hair, but tbe women are somewhat more particular and may frequently be seen employing In its arrangement tbe toothed jaw of a porpoise in lieu of a comb. St Louis Globe-Democrat Halibut In Canada. "One cannot be long In any bote! or restaurant in Canada without seeing halibut on tbe bill of fare." says s writer in Canada. "In this respect it assumes tbe position of a national dish. It Is there on Christmas day and again on midsummer day. and there are not many days in between these two dates when halibut tinds no place , on tbe menu. So plentiful Is halibut in tbe waters of tbe west coast of Vancouver island tbat Ernest McGaffey on one occasion watched a few Indians, with their crude tisblng arrangements, catch 21.000 pounds in Clayoquot sound in one day. When It is remembered tbat a halibut sometimes weighs as much as 300 pounds perhaps this achievement will lose a tiny part of its glory." Color Harmony. I Tbe key to all color harmony is simply this-that kindred or related colors harmonize, go well together, while unrelated colors are antagonistic to each other. Those colors are kindred which are side by side on tbe spectrum band or tbe color circuit Red is kindred to orange because orange is sn admixture of red and yellow; orange ia kindred to yellow because of tbe yellow In tbe orange; yellow is akin to green because green is an admixture of yellow snd blue.

The albatross, that wanderer of tb seas so often referred to in prose and poem, is nevertheless a stranger to tbe average person and by some Is even considered a mytb. In Coleridge's "Tbe Rime ot tbe Ancient Mariner" tbe albatross plays a leading part, and one sorrows tor tbe poor bird, which, after following the ship for weeks, is pitilessly shot down by a mariner. The albatross is the largest sea bird having the power ot flight and is closely allied to tbe gull, petrel and Mother Carey's chicken. It has a tremendous stretch of wing, averaging from ten to twelve feet. Tbe wings are. however, extremely narrow, being about nine inches In breadth. Tbe body is about four feet In length, and tbe weight is from fifteen to eighteen pounds, a comparatively llbt weight when one considers tbe extreme length of wing. Tbe albatross is possessed of a peculiarly long, oddly shaped bill, which gives it a strange appearance. Tbe nostrils open from round, borlsontal tubes on eacb side of tbe bill, but at its base. . Tbis great bird Is generally met with in southern seas, although It Is occasionally seen on our Pacific coast On the Atlantic side it is rarely found as far north as Tampa bay. Its food consists of cuttlefish. Jelly, fish and scraps thrown from passing ships. It Is a greedy bird and at times gorges Itself to sucb an extent tbat it is unable to rise from tbe water. Its power of flight Is. however, tbe most remarkable thing about tbe albatross. It spends its life, with tbe exception of a few weeks given each year to nesting, entirely at sea and is on tbe wing practically all tbe time. , Furthermore, it does not progress by flapping Its wings, as most birds do, but seems to soar at wllH rarely It ever giving a stroke of tbe wing, seeming to need oo Impetus. St. Nlcbolss. The TwUlckt Of Ufe. The mnscles ot the stomach ia old an an aot as strong- or active as in youth and Tb consequence old people are very subject to constipation and indigestion. Many seldom bay a bowel movement without artificial aid. Many, also, have unpleasant eroctations of ras from the stomach after eatta. All this can be avoided by tho use of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which permanently resmlates the bowels so that passages come naturally, and so strengthens the stomach that food is digested without discomfort. Druggists sell It at SO cents or II s large bottle. PALLADIUM WANT ADS PAY.

UNIONISM IS ANCIENT. Egyptian History Shew First Cabs Strike Tsok Place In 14C0 B. C Recent iuvestigatious io Egyptia; history disclose the details of a la bo difficulty t Tbebes In the year 1-KX B. C The strike was very similar t those goitijr oo today. It was in tb building trades, and the strikers wen masons. Tbey were paid in rations ai tbe end of each month, and the.v claimed that these . were insufficient to sustain them uud their families until tbe foiloniu pay day. Ou tbe lOtb of tbe month they laid down theii tools and naibered behind a chapel near where tbey were working. "We are hungry.' tbey naid. "and there are elghteeu days liefore the next pay." They chargvd the paymasters witr. dishonesty, saying that they gave false measure. The paymasters, on the othef hand, charged the men with
want of fore!ht in feasting too well while the nit ions lasted. After long discussion the men decided to return to work on condition that Pharaoh himself investigate tbe matter, says tbe Chicago News. Two lays later I'liaraob actually came to :ue temple in answer to tbelr appeal and after hearing both sides decided that tbe uiasous should have tbelr wages raised at ouce. For a little while all went well, but evidently the paymasters did not live up to their agreement for on the 5th of tbe next month tbe strike was again in full force, and for three whole days not a tool was lifted. The strikers decided to go out to the public with their troubles, but tbey found themselves locked in the temple. Then they became violent broke out and rusbed iuto the streets, inconveniencing traffic a nd frightening pedestrians as they paraded the thoroughfares. Workers Held In Peonage.
