STARTS O N LONG TRIP
CHANT FLOATING DOCK DEWEY OFF FOR MANILA". At Rtlt It I* N»W Making the 14,-000-Stile vo>»*e Will Coimomf Mnrr than Nine Warasn JM— !■ MlistispolU llrf. *- The huge floating dry dork Dowry. jritU the last of. its anchors .stowed aboard, started off down Chesapeake bay Thursday on its 14.000 mile cruise to the Philippines. Until the immense anchors are safely dropped In the wnters of Suing bay tKe cruise of the Dewey will be watched with the deepest concern by the' Navy Department. Many nnval oterCrs are doubtful whether the trip can' be made ini safety. Commander 11. Ilosley -vs the United States nary is ia command of the expedition. The powerful tug Potomac and thycc colliers will form the convoy. The trip trill be made by way of the Suez canal. The only naval feat, in American history comparable so that of towing, the Dewey to the Philippines was the trip, of the big double tarreted monitor Miantonomoh in 1867. The monitor was then the latest type of naval architecture and was sent across the Atlantic and into the Mediterranean ns a "show ship,” to give Europe an idea of how far ahead the Americans had gone as n result of the sea fighting of the Civil War. Captain Lane of tbe.steamer Alabama, which arrived at Norfolk, Jj-, from Baltimore, reports—having passed off Point Lookout, abofit twenty-five miles south of,Solomon's Island, the floating dry dock Dewey. According to Captaitf Lane’s report the Dewey had traveled only a Unit twent y-five miles in eleven hours. She has over 14,000 miles to go, and at the rate of two miles an hour It.aHai take hOT.tipjf'iSd"of nine months to make the voyage with smooth weather. Should severe weather be encountered at sea it is calculated there would be long delays. ONE DEAD, 17 HVHT, IN FIRE. Minneapolis Tenement Dentroyedf 27 Fnmilien Ronted from Bed". Mrs. Lorain Buekliff is dead, two persons seriously burned and fifteen or more are injured as the result of the destruction of the Higgins tenements on Minnehaha avenue, Minneapolis. The fire started in the apartments of Mrs. BucklUT. Twenty-seven families were routed from their beds and seat-outdoors shivering. Mrs. Folley, who lived with Mrs, Buekliff, arose at 4:30 to start-irffrif in an oil as she lighted a match exploded. Mrs. Buekliff -Aras standing near by and in a moment her clothes were a mass of flames. - NORTHWEST PASSAGE BAD. Capt. Amnndtrn S«jr» Water Is Not Dorp Enough for Big Vessel*. Capt. William Hogg, master of the whaler Bonanza, says Capt. Amundsen accomplished all of the matters relative to the location of the north magnetic pole and sailed his vessel through the northwest passage. Captain Ami&dpen was compelled to jettison a part or his cargo in order to accomplish his feat of navigating the northwest passage, which shows that the northwest passage, now that it has been defined, is not deep enough for vessels large enough for commercial tonnage. Ineendlarlea Are Feared. Incendiarism is thought to _be the cause of the fire which ..destroyed the Riverside hotel, at Epwortß Heights at the camp meeting grounds near Cincinnati. The loss is placed at SIO,OOO. The suspicion of incendiarism is based on the fact that the fire started iu a part of the house not in use and in which there was no fire. DraggUt Kill* Himself. Charles Atton, one 'of the most promi nent druggists of Toledo, committed suicide by shooting. No cause is known. Atton gave a banquet to n few friends and going home late u3RF?%wd for bed. Just as he lay down his wife was Startled by a shot and woke up to find him dead at her side. Inherit* Fortune and Kill* Her*elf. Mrs. H. J. Lewis, wife of the cashier of the Illinois Club, committed suicide in Hot Springs. Ark. She tied a clothes „ljne to the etairway and jumped off. 11l health ia supposed to have prompted the deed. Mr. Lewis had just received word that his wife had been left a comfortable fortune by a relative. Die* Trying to Reduce Fnrff* Mrs. 3d«ry Kollinjr, daughter of a wealthy ranchman of Nuckols county, Neb., died from the effects of treatment ■he had been taking to reduce her flesh. She was 19 years old and weighed upward of 400 pounds when she began to take the treatment. F*Ul G*a Explosion la Home.

REPUBLIC’S CHIEF ROUTED.
Pre*l4e*< Morale* of Santo Doming* Put to Flight by Rebel*. President Morales has fled from. Santo Domingo's capital. The cabinet sent troops after him- These forces,
PRES. MORALES.
afbd join Rbdrlpief nt Monte Ciisti: When news reached Washington that a. revolution had broken out IB Santo Domingo; tlmt President Morales had fled his capital; that two factions were fighting and that no one had any idea thht any sort of government existed on the island, .there- was a manifest disposition of the administration Loro to wash its hands of the whole matter. It is admitted that if Morales is driven out and if the island is to be disturbed by a long revolution, the schemes of' President Roosevelt ’to continue the modus vivemli and collect the customs must fall. •This government apparently has abandoned Morales to iTis fate. The Intention of the Presided! seems to be only to take such steps as will protect the lives of the American receivers, clerks, col lectors and others who have been loaned to Morales and commissioned by him. President Carlos F. Morales, of Santo- DoffiThgo, who fled from his capital and Is a fugitive'from the wrath of the revolutionists, Is a product of one of the many revolutions peculiar to Latin America, lie is not yet 40, was born at Porto Plata, in the island, was educated for ft priest nnd for eight years followed that calling. lie then "turned his attention to the politics of his disturbed little country, served under Jiminez and Wos y Gil, and on two occasions was exiled for plotting against the government. He had participated in six unsuccessful revolutions, when, in October, 1903, he led an attack on the then President Wos y Gil, and being successful, declared himself dictator and Jater president. He claims to be friendly to the United States, but has always resented the interference of this country in the affairs of the islands.
A DISASTROUS SEASON.
Vmr Ve**eln Lout on the Great Lakes During the Fast Year. Navigation for the year on the Great Lakes has been one of unequaled hardship and disaster to all concerned. The total value of vessels lost is placed at $4,625,000, and of cargoes at $750,000, which is greater than ever before reached. Seventy-nine vessels were destroyed by etorm nnd fire. There were 740 casualties of all kinds. Last year there were only 430, in 1903 there were 522 and in 1902 562. -Lake Erie led nil the lakes," with 158 disasters; Lake Superior was next with 129; Lake Huron had 108; Detroit and St. Clair rivers, 114; Soo Passage 65 and I.ake Ontario 48. Lake Superior led all the hikes in the number of lives lost and property dig-' stroyed. The storm of Nov. 28 of this year was one of the most destructive ever known. The .property loss by it is noW- estimated nt $1,750,000, and this will bfc greatly increased if some of the big vessels now ashore are not released before winter sets in. Marine underwriters have been hard hit. Some of the big companies will be called upon to pay $2 for every dollar . received in premiums. The losses which they will have to pay aggregate $1,516,000 on hulls and $430,000 on cargoes, Joes not Lake ip to account a long list of partial losses. The great losses of the past season occurred during the three big storms of the fall. During the early months of the season the underwriters were remarkably fortunate, few of the boats lost being insured. Owing solely to the fact that the steel trust does not carry marine insurance, some of the companies’ probably escaped bankruptcy. Up to the present year the steel trust lias made money by not insuring. The premiums on its fleet would amount to about $750,000 a year. A comfortable surplus was aceiynulnted during 1903 and 1904, but it is said that the November storm wiped this out.

an important part,in the fighting. They will divide honors with the older leaders, who, because of their long tenure in high places, are sometimes disrespectfully called the “dowagers” of" the House. In this -class are such men as Grosvenor, Payne. Bingham. Pnlzell. Ilitt and several others. They will be leading, spirits iu the present House, but not so much the whole show as in several previous sessions. “Col. Pete’C 11 c-p bn r 11. Most prominent of the men whom Speaker Cannon brings forward is W. P. Hepburn, of lowa, usually called “Col. Pete.” He has had an interesting cnTeer, for he is not a young man nor even a new man in Congress, being new only in commanding influence?

demnation of river and harbor appropriations does not lmrt him in the estimation of his constituents, because there is no navigation in his district. Hepburn was born at VVeWsTille,'’ Ohio, in 1833, and was taken to lowa, then a territory, in 1841. He was educated in the public schools of the territory and in a printing office. Then he studied law. He was admitted to practice in 1854. He served as captain, major and lieutenant colonel in the Second lowa Cavalry during the Civil War. He is 72 years old. and this is the tenth Congress of which he hns been.a member. For two or three years he did not speak to Mr. Cannon, and it is perhaps true that there is still no love lost between them. Iu spite of this, each respects the ability nnd position of the other. There is not another such fighter in either house of the .Congress as Colonel Pete. He has a command of irony and sarcasm and can use it so bitterly and effectively joined with ridicule that many a brave floor fighter quails before liirq. Mr. Cannon deliberated when he became speaker of the House. For months he and Colonel Hepbi\rn had not been friends. He made up his mind that it was better to have such a man with him than against him, and so he consented to a reconciliation, which was was engerl.r arranged by mutual friends. Hepburn is chairman of the Committee on Interstate Commerce, and In that position will have charge of the administration railroad rate regulation legislation. He will mix up tn every other tight of Importance. This is inevitable—partly because he is naturally a fighter and partly because he

has bad so wide and broad legislative experience, and hns such backing of good judgment and common sense that he will be drafted whenever there Is to be anytldng of importance doing. , A Blacksmith Slateamaa. "The Blacksmith Statesman” would not be an inappropriate title for James A. Tawney, of Minnesota, who is to be a conspicuous House leader. He la chairman Of the Committee on Appropriations, which Is the position
formerly held by Speaker Caun<>o< *nd also by W. S. Holman, of Indiana, and the holder of which is generally called “the watchdog of the treasury.” He is intimately acquainted with aIU the members of the House, for he has been for years Abe party “whip” and has also iiad charge‘of the speakers in TTcmgressioual Campaigns. He is a Pennsylvanian by birth, SO years old, and served n long (apprenticeship yi Ills father’s blacksmith shop. Later lie followed the uiaClihiist’s trade for many years, going to Winona, Minn., when he was 22 and following his ocof blacksmith and machinists Seeing in the new country opportunities for lawyers he studied Blaekstone after pounding* all day on Iron and steel and at the age of 27 was admitted to-the bar. He took a course later in the law school of Wisconsin University—la ISQO he was elected State Senator in Minnesota, two years later was sent to Congress and lias been there ever since. The fights which the House will carry ors against the Senate will be more bitter-and will undoubtedly win more of victory than has been the case in the past. This is due to the attitude of
WAS A PRINTER'S DEVIL.
Speaker Cannon. He won out against the Senate last session in the matter of Statehood legislation. He also won out in a of other particulars w hich, because of the graceful acquiescence. of the Senate, did not attract the same amount of attention. Mr. 4?fHHKm~-is the -sworn enemy- of - the Senate. lie has made that clear. Just before lie was elected Speaker of the House he took the floor one day and delivered a denunciation of the Senate methods and the manner in which the House had repeatedly given up to the" ‘Senate that attracted national and even international attention. He plainly threw down tlm gauntletT He said in effect that tliic House had always given dow r n to Senate pressure and that he was tired of the method that prevailed of the House being the body that always had to yield. For one he was up in arms against the system and hoped to see it end. So outspoken and plain was Mr. Cannop that members of the Senate, including "Hale, Spooner and Allison, felt called upon to reply to what Mr. Cannon said. It is a popular and well-founded belief that the Senate really shapes out and finishes and completes the legislation of the Congress and makes it tight, and so it will hold water and resist the strain put upon it by the courts.
BACKED BY MILLIONS.
The Lobby Agntnaj Arizona Statehood Is Very Powerful. Lobbies are thick in the corridors of the big. white national state house these days. There is the railroad lobby, well and persistently maintained. But the most strenuous nnd dangerous, as well as the most picturesque lobby of all, is the mine owners’ lobby from Arizona, fighting statehood for that territory. It is picturesque because o£ the bold methods its employs, and because it has at least two United States Senators among its backers. It is dangerous because of the possibility that grave scandals riiay result from its operations. It is a lobby with hundreds of millions of dollars back of it. The agents and manipulators of its schemes are too smart to offer outright bribes. But they have mining stock for sale —stock which is sure to earn a big profit—stock that will “pay big to all who get in on the ground floor. And just now we are letting a little of it out to our friends.” It seems rather strange that the rich mine owners of Arizona should be fighting statehood, either single or joint, but the reason for it is not far to seek. They own the territory now. They run it. They are lords of the estate. Naturally they .do not want to run any risks by a change to statehood. These mining corporations have had things their own way all along the line, but in no particular so emphatically as in the assessed valuation of their property upon which they are called to pay taxes. These powerful corporations do not want statehood. They can operate more independently and profitably under a territorial form of government, and they stand ready to devote a big share of their millions 1 9 the work of preventing the passage of a bill giving Arizona either single statehood or joint statehood with New Mexico.
WILL SEE MORE OF THE WORLD.
Miss Roosevelt Will Coatlnne Her Travel* After Marriage. It is understood to be the intention of President and Mra. Roosevelt to Invite to the wedding of their daughter to Representative Longworth only a limited number of family and personal friends, probably a few hundred In all. The party will include the members of the cabinet and their wires and perhaps a limited number from the diplomatic corps. Mr. and Mrs. Longworth will live for a few months in the house now occupied by the former, which stands only two blocks from the White House. In May or June Mr. and Mra. Longworth plan to take a trip to Europa, where it is expected the daughter of tha American President will be presented at tha English court and where it is certain many honors will be heaped upon her, not only In London, but in Paris, whera Mr. Longworth has family connections., Mrs. Longworth that is to be baa in-" herited her father’* fondness for travel and. -sotertainment. With the contemplated European trip the President's daughter will have been pretty nearly around the world and received the homage of every nation and degree of mankind, from the savages of Zamboango to ►tha courtiers of Buckingham Paine*.
Prices for Butterflies.
Butterfly collectors are seldom able to estimate with any confidence the value of their collections, since th* prices for specimens so constantly vary. A case in point is that of the bin* butterfly of Brazil, specimens of which were originally sold for from. SSO to $75". Not long ago some 'collectors who supplied the London market ran into a perfect swarm of these butterflies and shipped to England such quantities that better specimens than the original insects are sold for $1 each. It not Infrequently happens that two or three specimens of a certain family are discovered ’by collectors, who, encouraged by the high prices received for their Rods, are tempted to prosecute their search for this particular variety without result for several years. Suddenly they" «r some other collector finds the insects grown plentiful, and the cherished varieties of the cabinet become among the commonest specimens.
Jut Wonderful.
Vestry, Miss., Jam Ist The case of Mrs. C. W. Pearson, who resides here is a particularly interesting one. Here is the story told by Mr. Pearson, her husband, in his own words. He says: “My wife’s health was bad for a long time. Last July she was taken terrible bad with spasms. I sent for the doctor, nnd after making a thorough. examination of her, he said undoubtedly the cause of her trouble was a disordered state of the Kidneys. His medicine didn’t seem to be doing her mi ueh good, so as I heard about Dodd’s Kidney Fills, I got her a box just to give them a trial. Well, the effect was just wonderful. I saw' that they were the right medicine and I got two more boxes. When she had taken these she was so much better that she had increased thirty pounds in weight. She is now quite well, and we owe it all to Dodd’s Kidney Fills.”
ODD TRAIT OF MANKIND.
1 11 11 miln Nature Ever Prone to Get Something: for Nothing:. .Human nature may be more productively worked than a gold mine if you know a right method, says the Atlanta Journal. ■ General Manager Cbipman of the Indianapolis and Eastern Electric railway, recently utilized his knowledge of human nature in amaveLway. His company had a park the soil of which it wanted to plow up and pulverize thoroughly at small cost, at the same time attracting some traffic to the park. It therefore buried SSOO in gold coin In various parts of the park and threw the place open to any patron of the street cars that wished to dig, prescribing only that none but" small hand implements should be used. The plan worked admirably. The cars were thronged by amateur miners and by the time all the coin was found the entire surface of the park had been loosenel up and reduced to powder to an extent that no landscape gardener ever saw equaled. The street car company got its SSOO back in fares and at the same time gots its park thoroughly plowed for-notliing. Many will tenderly recall the old school reader story of the dying father who called his sons to his bedside and Informed them that, though the old farm he was about to lerive them was worn out and had become unproductive, there was buried somewhere upon it a great treasure and if they would persistently dig for it they would surely find rich reward. 3Clje sons digged and digged and digged, turning the old farm upside down and inside out, and, though they found no sign of the gold they expected their harvests of grain became enormous and their reward was richer than they knew. Through some peculiarity in our construction we are willing to work teu times as hard “to get something for nothing” as to earn it in ordiary wages.
MALARIA? ? ? ?.
Generally That la Not the Tronble. Persons with a susceptibility to malarial influences should beware of coffee, which has a tendency to load up the liver with bile. A lady writes from Denver that she suffered for years from chills and fever which at last she learned were mainly produced by the coffee she drank. "I was also grievously afflicted with headaches and indigestion,” she says, “which 1 became satisfied were likewise largely due to the coffee I drank. Six months ago I qutt its use altogether and began to drink Postura Food Coffee, with the gratifying result that my headaches have disappeared, my digestion hns been restored and I have not had a recurrence of chills and fever for more than three mouths. I have no doubt that It was Postum that brought me this relief, for 1 hare used no medicine while this Improvement has been going on.” (It tfaa really relleftrom congestion of the liver caused by coffee.) “My daughter has been aa great a coffee drinker as I, and for years was afflicted with terrible sick headaches, which often lasted fpr a week at a time. She la a brain worker and excessive application, together with the headaches, began to affect her memory moat seriously. She found no help in medlclues and the doctor frankly advised her to quit coffee nuil use Postum. "For more than four months she bas not had a headache—her mental faculties have grown more active and vigorous and her 'memory has been restored.
