AFTER THE GREAT BATTLE OF HANKOW
o/ J?2:E>IL5 ON THE EFGZlJfl QUAY
ONE of the fiercest of the battles fought between the Chinese revolutionists and the imperial forces was at
Hankow. There was great slaughter on both sides. A few days ago the American minister ordered all
Americans in the interior to proceed at once to the nearest treaty port.
WHY HUSBAND TIRES
Playless Youth Makes Restless
Married Man.
Mr*. Mtry Austin, Playwright and
Authoress. Explains Unhappy Mar*
riages—Boys Assume Burden
of Life Too Early.
New York.—The reason why so
many husbands forty to fifty years of
a*e lire of their wives and, in many
cases, desert them is, according to
Mrs. Mary Austin, because boys are
made to assume the burden of life
too early. Just as a young colt may
be ruined by premature breaking to
harness, so the moral fiber of youth
may be weakened permanently by as
suming too early the obligations of
maturity, she thinks.
Mrs Austin, who wrote "The Ar
row Maker," and who Is also the
author of several novels, has been
making a study of conditions In the
domestic relations court recently.
"Youth." she said, "should be a
period of efflorence. When young peo
ple. girls as well as boys, are put to
work too early the business life
tends to destroy In them certain sec
ondary sex characteristics which are
of utmost Importance to the race.
"For instance, take sentiment and
romance in girls. In hundreds of
young girls, working under the super
vision of men. the rot..antfc feeling
cannot be fostered It must, on the
contrary, be suppressed, perhaps ul
timately destroyed, for the girl’s own
protection. Men bring out in the girl
of sixteen or so the characteristics
which appeal to them, their flirtiness,
pertness. smartness. There are oth
er qualities, more sentimental and po
etic, which only women can bring
; cut In girls. So. If a girl of sixteen
ha* to go to work it should be under
■ the direction of women.
’Boyhood has certain qualities of
enthusiasm, of resistance to autbor
"y—a good thing, since If one genera
. tlon accepted blindly the ideals of an
°ther. there would he no progress.
, Hut this enthusiasm, (his eager ques
tioning of life, has no place in busi
ness I think society owes it to it
self to preserve the vitality of its
young people for the benefit of the
race.
“All boys and glrU Inherit certain
racial traits, certain hereditary
iralts. which they should have a
chance to work out before they take
up the burden of life. Everybody,
! for Instance, goes through a period
when he wants to live in a tent and
shoot bows and arrows.
“A state or city should, I think,
j foster the develpoment of sentiment
between toys and girls.
"Every city should have a social
center where poor boys and girls
j could meet, under proper chaperon
age. to do tbeir courting. It should
be unnecessary for young persons, no
matter liow poor, to meet each other
and do their courting in the streets.
"If we paid more attention to pre
serving the vitality, to to fostering
the poetic ideals of our boys and
girl*, we would not have nearly so
many unhappy marriages, so many
wife desertions
"You must have noticed how often
the man of forty or fifty, who has led
a strong and good life, gees astray
morally. Thai’s because he was brok
en to harness too early. He had no
time to work out his hereditary traits.
Some persons may think I mean to
encourage immorality in young peo
ple. but that is far from my idea.”
"Then you don't mean that we
must give a boy time to sow his wild
oats in his hereditary traits?"
“Xot at all. His vitality may he di
rected in good and proper channels.
I mean that boys and girls must have
some time to play, to write poetry, to
sentimentalize. We must not thrust
the burden of life upon them too
early. If we do not want them to sink
under or run away from it."
To Dig for Whisky
Syndicate Seeks to Recover Li
quor Lost Years Ago.
Cargo Which Searcher* Expect to
Recover From Lost Steamer Lea
dora. Estimated to Be Worth
Not Less Than $50,000.
Sioux Falls. S. D.—Like a hunt for
pirates’ buried treasure is a search
now being made at a point on the
Missouri river, where South Dakota
and Iowa join. The object is to re
cover one hundred barrels of whisky
and other goods supposed to be in the
hull of the Missouri river steamer
I.eadora. which was grounded and
partly destroyed forty-five years ago.
The cargo which the searchers ex
pect to recover is estimated to be
worth not less than $30,000. The Lea
dora was 173 feet long and was bound
from St. Louis to Fort Benton. Mont.,
when it met with its mishap. The
cargo consisted, as near as can be
learned at this late day, of more than
one hundred barrels of whisky and
mining tools.
When the steamer reached the
southeastern corner of South Dakota
its crew discovered that what had
been the main channel of the Mis
souri wate temporarily blocked by a
sandbar. So they worked the steamer
over to the South Dakota side of the
river in an endeavor to find an open
ing through which the boat could
pass.
The boat ran aground, and while
an attempt was being made to free
it. it was found to be on fire. To
prevent the fire from destroying both
boat and cargo the craft was scut
tled. The nine passengers and crew
escaped and twenty barrels of
whisky, together with some groceries,
were saved.
In 1871. six years later, the insur
ance firm which paid the insurance
on the boat sold the salvage to James
Boorge of Sioux City, and he set to
work to recover the cargo. Men
worked two or three weeks on the
boat and bad taken oft some of the
cargo, as well as the engines and
boiler, excepting the •’nigger” engine,
when the river rose rapidly and
forced the abandonment of the work.
Since then until the present effort lit
GOOD MORNING IN A COURT
Amusing and Peculiar Mix-Up Hap
pens in Chicago When Foreigner
Confronts Municipal Judge. ,
Chicago.—'“Whet S your name?"
; asked Municipal .lodge Uolan of a taii
i black mustached Italian arraigned be
| fore him on a charge of disorderly
conduct the other day.
"Goodtncruing," replied the alien.
“Good morning," returned the judge
with a smile. “Hut I want to know
your name."
"Gocdmoming." again came the
reply.
"Is that all the Kng'.ish you know?"
the judge asked.
"Goodmorning, my name,” replied
the prisoner. "Jim Goodmorning, they
call me in this country."
"All right, Jim Goodmorning." the
court said. "I thought you were just
trying to be polite to me. You are
discharged. Good morning!"
tie bag been done to recover the rest
of the cargo.
The present operations are being
conducted by the Cole Brothers, of
Alccster. and E. E. Wenner of Elk
Point. assisted by Daniel Ballinger,
now a resident of the vicinity, who
was a passenger on the boat on its
I last trip.
Wenner located the old boat about
fifteen years ago by means of a com
pass and metallic attraction, and at
that time he sunk a cylinder down to
what was supposed to be the deck
and found things in good shape. He
decided that as long as the main
channel of the Missouri remained
where it was the old hull could be
damaged but little. Since then Wen
ner has had the old boat in mind, but
not until a few weeks ago did he do
anything further about recovering the
cargo
Such of the timbers of the old craft
as have been uncovered are in fine
condition, and the iron work does not
appear to have been damaged by its
exposure to the elements and the wet
sand.
A second hole near what is sup
posed to have been the stern of the
steamer is now being sunk, and this
has gone down rapidly until the bull
nas again been struck.
The other day the men engaged In
the operations recovered a broken
bottle with the words. “O. K. Planta
tlbn. 1840," blown into the glass.
Within a few days they have found
peanuts, coffee, almonds and other
goods.
Many Cats Abandoned.
St. Paul, Minn.—So many cats have
been abandoned by the residents of
surrounding summer resorts that the
St. Paul Humane society baa decided
to appeal to the next legislature to
make tbe abandonment of a cat a
crime At present ^the aoclety Is
obliged to kill the cats. Massachu
setts has a law that deals with tlie
problem in that way.

Hucksters’ Cries in Navy
Ropes and Sails on Turkish Fleet Are
Named for Vegetables and the
Result Is Amusing.
London.—The discussion incident to
tbe present unpleasantness between
Italy and Turkey of tlie unprepared
ness of the Turkish fleet has recalled
an unusual difficulty experienced by
the founders of the original Ottoman
navy.
They were hampered by the fact
that there were no words in the Turk
. lsh dictionary for the various ropes
and sails of tbe warships of that day.
An ingenious officer solved tbe prob
lem by tying different vegetables to
I tbe various ropes and spars of the
rigging, and tbe sailors received or
ders to "Holst tbe tomato!” “Let go
the potato!” until a more formal vo
cabulary could be supplied.
Novei as this procedure was. It was
J not an innovation, as It was exactly
the method adopted by Almeida, the
I Portuguese admiral and discoverer.
wlien he was outfitting a fleet for just
sucli a descent on the Turkish colony
of Mozambique as the Italians made
on Tripoli.
It was at the beginning of the six
teenth century and Portugal still lack
ed a navy, and the Portuguese tongue
was devoid of naval terms. This fact
did not daunt the doughty Admiral
Almeida, and. hanging up strings of
garlic and onions on the port and star
board sides, respectively, of his ships
he instructed his helmsmen to "gar

ALWAYS GENTLE IN REPROOF
General Lee's Real Kindness of Heart
Made Manifest on Such
Occasions.
There are some new, or. at least, un
familiar stories of Robert E. Lee in
Gamaliel Bradford, Jr.’s article on
“Lee After the War" in the South At
lantic Quarterly. Lee's methods of re
proof were peculiar to him. A stu
dent was once called to account for
absence. “Mr. M., 1 am glad to see
you better,” Lee said to him, smiling.
“But. general. I have not been sick.”
“Then I am glad you have tetter news
from home.” “But, general, I have
had no bad news.” "Ah, 1 tot It it for
granted that nothing less than sick
ness or distressing news from home
could have kept you from your duty.”
In the same vein was his remark to
a student who had been late for pray
ers. "Mr. Page, will you kindly give
my compliments to Miss-and ask
her if she will please have breakfast
a little earlier for you?” To a negli
gent student he said: “How is your
mother*? I am sure you must be de
voted to her; you are so careful of the
health of her son."
Summoned to Lee's office, a lad was
to!d that only patience and industry
would save him from failure in col
lege and in life. "But. general, yon
failed.” the student replied, with
sophomore Ineptitude. “1 hope that
you may be more fortunate than I,”
was the quiet answer.
CUTICURA OINTMENT HEALED
BAD SORE ON LIMB
“Some time ago I was coming up
some steps when the board crushed
under me like an egg shell, and my
right limb went through to the knee,
and scraped he flesh off the bone
just inside and below the knee. I
neglected it for a day or two, then it
began to hurt me pretty badly. I put
balsam fir on to draw out the poison,
but when 1 had used it a week, it hurt
so badly that I changed to-oint
ment. 'That made it smart and burn
so badly that I couldn't use it any
more, and that was the fourth week
after I was hurt.
"Then I began to use Cuticura Oint
ment for the sore. It stopped hurting
immediately and began healing right
away. It was a bad-looking sore be
fore Cuticura Ointmen' healed it. and
I suffered so I couldn't sleep from two
days after 1 fell until I began using
Cuticura Ointment.
"Cuticura Soap is the best soap I
l ever saw. 1 have used all kinds of
soap for washing my face, and always
it would leave my face smarting. I
had to keep a loticfti to stop the smart,
no matter howT expensive a soap I
used. I find at last in Cuticura Soap
a soap that will clean my face and
leave no smarting, and 1 do not have
! to use any lotion or anything else to
; ease it. I believe Cuiicura Soap is the
: best soap made." (Signed) Mrs. M.
