JEFFERSON DEAD
FAMOUS
ACTOR PASSES AWAY
IN FLORIDA.
EVENT WAS NOT UNEXPECTED
Body to Dc Taken to Buzard's Bay,
Mass., for Burial. Nation Will
Mourn the Loss of a Widely Known
Actor.
WKST PALM BEACH. Fla. Jo
ihmiIi Jefferson, the eminent actor,
died nt his home. "The Reefs." at
I'nlm lleach at fi:15 Sunday evening.
Tho end came after a day of tincon
nclottsness and after a heroic struggle
of days which had exhausted his vit
ality. At his deathbed were his wife,
his sons, Charles B. and Frank Jef
ferson: his nurso. Miss Mabel Bing
ham: Dr. R. B. Potter and his faith
ful old servant, Carl Kettler.
The end was not a surprise to his
family. Ever since his last sinking
snell. which came after a rally on
Thursday morning and was followed
by ari apparent improvement until
Friday, the family has been waiting
for the end. Mr. Jefferson's condition
Saturday night grew steadily worse
and the family, which had retired, was
summoned and Dr. Porter called. The
patient's condition continued to grow
worse all through Sunday and tho
brief bulletins from the bedside con
tained no words of encouragement.
The sickness of Mr. Jefferson
which ended in his death, was con
tracted, it is believed, while on a
recent vist to his son. Charles B. Jef
ferson, at Hobo Sound, a few miles
above Palm Beach, where he went to
meet his friend, former President
Cleveland. It is believed that from a
slight indiscretion in his eating he
suffered an attack of indigestion.
Since his return to h'is home his con
dition grew worse, with slight rallies,
until the end.
The body of Mr. Jefferson will-lie
taken to Buzzards Bay. Mass.. leaving
here Monday afternoon, accompanied
by all his family who are here. It will
reach' New York Wednesday.
It was on April 1 that Mr. Jefferson
went to Hohe Sound to meet Mr.
Cleveland and other friends at the
home of his- son. Charles B. Jefferson.
The party spent about a week there
and during that time there were fre
quent fishing expeditions. During that
time Mr. Jefferson appeared active,
but as he had been resting at his
almost
ill-
last
and
over-exerted himself. It, was at a sup
per thero one night when ho ate
something which it is thought brought
on the attack of indigestion. When
Mr. Jefferson became ill he returned
at once to The Reers and was taken
to his room on the second floor of the
cottage, which is only 100 feet from
the ocean, where he could watch the
sea. The weather was favorable
throughout his illness. Dr. Porter, the
family physician at the Florida home,
lived three miles from The Reefs and
went occasionally to the bedside of
his patient, feeling that his patient
might survive. But when the first
critical period occurred he spent
most of his time there and called Dr.
Worley. a specialist of St. Augustine,
for a consultation. Dr. Worley went
to Palm Beach, arriving there last
Monday and leaving there the follow
ing Monday, thinking that Mr. Jeffer
son might recover. It was the heroic
fight the veteran actor was making
against death and his great determin
ation to survive in order that he
could reach his northern home that
resulted" in the few temporary changes
for the better.

HEALTH REPORT FROM PANAMA
March Compares Favorably With Any
Country.
WASHINGTON The March health
report of Colonel W. C. Gorgas. chief
sanitary officer of the Isthmian canal
zone, received here, shows a steady
improvement in conditions there.
There were about 9.000 employes of
the commission at the end of the
month. The sick in hospitals number
ed irS. and the total deaths for the
month were only eleven. This is equal
to a rate of fourteen per 1.000. a
rate which Colonel Gorgas says would
be considered favorable anywhere.
In the thirty days ended with
March there had been four cases of
yellow fever throughout the whole
isthmus, of which one was in Pana
ma. In the previous thirty days there
had been twelve cases. Each house
in Panama City has been fumigated:
a great many of them several times.

The usual spring preparations at
the Jefferson summer cottage, at the
head of Buttermilk bay. have been in
progress for some weeks, it being Mr.
Jefferson's custom to take up his resi
dence here "about the middle of May.
The house which the distinguished
actor occupied is the second which
he built here, the first -having been

Mr. Jefferson's pleasant ways en

proud of his residence among them.
His sons, Thonias and Joseph, built

built a cottage here for his daughter
Josephine.
So popular was Mr. Jefferson on
Cape Cod that he had served for
many years as president of the Old

principally of clams and other sea
food, have been attended by many dis

MUST STAY OUTSIDE LIMIT.
Rule That Will Apply to Rojestven
sky's Squadron.
ST. PETERSBURG The Associat
ed Press is informed that no repre
sentations have been made to Russia
through the French embassy here on
the subject of Admiral Rojestvensky's
stay at Kamranh bay. There is no
direct telegraph line to Kamranh bay.
and the fact of a violation of neutral
ity would have to be established be
fore any definite response could be
given to Japanese or French repre
sentations on the subject made to
Russia. Admiral Fe Jonquieres, the
French naval commander at Saigon,
has already sailed from there for the
purj-ose of investigating the matter.
The following .statement on the sub
ject was made :"If Rojestvensky is
stili at Kamranh bay. or contemplates
remaining there until Xebogatoff joins
his ships, he will remain outside the
three-mile limit, as he did during the
long stay off Madagascar. Naturally.
Japan will file a caveat. just as she
would file one with the United States
if Rojestvensky should approach the.
Philippines. Japan's protest is in the
nature of a warning. The facts yet re
main to be established."
LIFE SHORTER" IN AMERICA.
German Doctor Compares Longevity
of Germans and Americans.
WIESBADEN "Americans are
shorter-lived than Germans." was the
conclusion reached by Dr. B. Iiquer
in his paper on social hygiene in the
United States, submitted to the Inter
national Congress of Medicine, now in
session here.
"Although more temperate in the
use of alcohol than the Germans, and
working an average of 10 per cent
shorter hours, the Americans are"
said Dr. Laquer, "exhausted earlier in
life."
The doctor gave these figures for
each thousand of the population: The
number of persons from 50 to CO
years of age are. in Germany. 170; in
America. 170; persons over SO, in
Germany. 7S; in America. 5.
Dr. Laquer did not undertake to
explain the facts. He simply gave
them as the result of inquiries which
he made during a visit to the United
States in 1904.
AUTOMOBILE INSPECTION CAR
Can Travel 100 Miles on Three Gallon-
of Gasoline.
ST. PAUL. Minn. A practical test
of the railroad automobile as an in
spection car has been made by Assist
ant General Superintendent Brown of
the Great Northern road. Chief En
gineer Davis. Superintendent Jenks of
the road's northern division, and Di
vision Roadmaster Lockland. They
traversed the northern division with
a car, which is now in the St. Paul
union depot yards. The new moans
of transportation enables the inspect
ors to view the tracks and roadbeds
at close range, to vary the speed of
the car on short notice, and to look
with equal ease in all directions.
So satisfactory was the tost that
Assistant Superintendent Brown wilt
henceworth use the car during all his
inspection trips. Four persons can bo
accommodated on tho car. It can make
much more than thirty miles an hour,
although that rate is considered best
for practical purposes. It can travel
100 miles on three gallons of gasoline.
No News of Russ;an Fleet.
LONDON Beyond the report that
from Kamranh bay the Russian sec
ond Pacific squadron proceeded
northward, there is no further news
of any kind nor confirmation of the
reported firing off Kamranh bay.
There have been rumors recen'ly that
a portion of Rojestvensky's squadron
was at Hainan, near the promontory
of Liencham. If these rumors are
true it is supposed the whole squad
ron may reassemble there and en
deavor in Chinese waters to continue
coaling.

it remains at 134 cents.

JTDEA0 THE TEfiCfTS FOE ; :
S!
PLATT OF CONNECTICUT PASSES
AWAY SUDDENLY.
New England Ideas Funeral Will
Probably Be Held on Tuesday, April
25th.
WASHINGTON? Conn. United
States Senator Orville Hitchcock
Piatt of Connecticut, died at his sum
mer home in this, his native town, at
8:53 Friday night from pneumonia.
The end came almost unexpectedly,
the immediate cause being the break
ing of the abscess which had foimed
in the right lung and which produced
strangulation. Only a few minutes be
fore, Dr. Ford, the family physician,
had prepared a bulletin from the sick
room to the effect that if the patient
did not have another sinking spell,
such as had come to him during the
forenoon, he would probably live
through the night.
The funeral will probably be held
next Tuesday, though the date has
not been conclusively fixed.
By both temperament and feeling
Senator Piatt was peculiarly the rep
resentative of New England ideas and
of the old Puritan integrity and con
science. Senator Piatt's last public utterance
was at the state capitol on March 21.
when before the general assembly he
delivered the eulogy over General
Hawley. whose body lay in state in
the corridor below. He spoke as if
from a heart that was overflowing
with grief and in words that touched
deeply all who heard him. telling of
the personal side of his long relations
with General Hawley. rather than of
the political battles they had fought
with varying fortune for the party to
which they both had life-long adher
ence. At the time it was noticed that
Senator Piatt seemed to be of impair
ed health and this was attributed to
his arduous labors in flie senate and
added responsibilities thrown on him
by the recent death of Senator Hoar.
Senator Piatt succeeded Senator
Hoar after the latter's death as chair
man of the judiciary committee of the
United States senate. Later he was
made chairman of tho special commit
tee of the senate appointed to conduct
the Swayno impeachment trial and
this was followed by his appointment
as presiding officer of tho senate, sit
ting as a court during the impeach
ment trial. That was his last high
public duty before returning to his na
tive state to assist in paying honor to
the memory of his late colleague in
the senate. Genera"! Hawley.
He was elected to the senate in
ISflO to succeed Senator W. H. Bar
nnm, a democrat who had been elect
ed to the vacancy caused by tho death
of Senator Orris Ferris. His last re
election was in 1003.
Senator Piatt was born here July
19, 1S27, and was nearly 78 years of
age.
NINE PENSION EXAMINERS OUT
Resignations Called fcr by Commis
sioner Warner Are Accepted.
WASHINGTON Nine of the ten
pension examiners constituting the
Board of Review were separated from
the government service. Commission
er of Pensions Warner referred the
the nine resignations to Secretary
Hitchcock with the recommendation
that they bo accepted, and Mr. Hitch
cock took the desired action without
delay. The resigned examiners assert
that representation were made to
them, purporting to come from tho
commissioner, that should they hand
in their resignations matters would be
relieved and restorations would be
made at some date in the near future.
Commissioner Warner, however, made
no such representation to the secre
tary. The difficulty involving the
Board of Review was its approval of
several pensions to applicants whose
only claim was enlistment in a Penn
sylvania and a New Jersey regiment
of volunteers for service in the civil
war. but the services of whom were
never availed of by the government.

President Serds Regrets.
WASHINGTON. Conn. A message
of condolence and expressive of his
grief over tho death of United States
Senator Orville II. IMatt came to Mrs.
Piatt ' from President Roosevelt Sun
day afternoon. It was sent from
Glenwood Springs. Colo. Tho mes
sage also contains an expression of
regret at the inability of tho presi
dent to attend tho funeral. The text
of the message will not bo given out.

Misery of Enforced ldlene.
"I hail been teaching in tho city
schools steadily- for six years," said Miss
James whose recent return. tttliu work
from which she was driven ly uervons
collapse 1ms ut traded attention. "They -were
greatly overcrowded, especially in
the primary department of which I had
charge, ontl I hatl been doing the work
of two teachers. The strain was too
much for my nerves and two years ago
the crisis came.
" I was prostrated mentally and phy
sically, sent in my resignation and never
expected to be able to resume work. It
seemed to me then that I was the most
miserable woman on earth. -Iwas tor
tured by nervous headaches, worn out by
inability to sleep, and had so little -blood
that I was as white as chalk.
"After my active life, it was hard to
bear idleness, and terribly discouraging
to keep paying out the savings of y wars
for medicines which did mo no good."
"How did you get buck your health J"
"A bare chance and n lot of faith led - '
mo to a cure. After I had suffered for
many mouths, and when I was on tho
very vergoof despair,! happened to read
an account of some cures effected by -Dr.
Williams Pink Pills. The state
ments were so convincing that I somt
how felt assured that these pills would
lu-lp mo. Mot people, I think, buy only
one box for a trial, but I purchased six
boxes at once, and when I had used
them np, I was indeed well and had no
need of more medicine.
"Dr. Williams Pink Pills enriched my
thin blood, gave mo back my sleep, re
stored my apietite, gave nic strength to
walk long distances without fatigue, in
fact freed me from all my numerous ail- .
incuts. I have already taught for several'
months, and I cannot say enough iti .
praise of Dr. Williams Pink Pills."
Miss Margaret M. James is now living
nt No. I2.'6 Clay street, Davtou, Ohio.
Many of her fellow teachers have also
used Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and are
enthusiastic abont their merits. Sound

are sold in every drug btoro in the
