where a luncheon had been prepared. The

Presldeat itarta Cheerle.
President Rooeetelfa "hip. hip, hoorah"
waa drowned In the roar of applause that
greeted the call for cheers. Then the
prlnca and president shook bands warmly
and at. the party started to leave the ball
aome one among the Invited guests
shouted, ."Mr. President, I otter three
cheera tor tha voting lady who has had
the honor of launching Meteor."
Tha cheera were given. The presidential
party and be prince and hl suite then
left for Hoheniollern. . The arrangement!
at Shooter's Island generally were mis
arable and a situation of discomfort to tha
majority was accentuated by tha first and
second battalions of the New Tork 8tate
Naval militia, brought to tha Island to keep
tha lines and to Bra tha presidential and
royal salutes. ULable to keep the lines,
especially after the launching, tha militia
men lost their heads and took to the rough
handling of many persons, even women, re
fusing to recognise either badges or cards
of invitation.
Secretary Moot Crowded Back.
Secretary of War Root, for Instance, waa
forced back with ft guA against his breast
and would have been unable to enter the
building, where tha president, prlnca and
party were to launch had It cot been for
tha timely arrival of Chief Wllkle of the
secret aervloe, who explained to the mllltla
men Mr. Root's name and rank. There
were many similar Instances.
Order was not fully restored even when
the presidential party appeared and tha
progress to the luncheon room waa there
fore Slower. The hundreds of police pres.
ent conducted themselves with the utmost
good nature and acted, so far as their duty
was concerned. In a very efficient manner.
Tha Shooter's bland arrangements for
the comfort of the guests were exceedingly
bad. No attempt. It seemed, had been made
to remove the thick coating of slush and
dirty snow on the roedwaya and ft number
of tha guesta remained on board tha tuga
or other boats . because of the difficulties
the ladles of their party were called on to
encounter. .
From Shooters Island the president and
the prince went to Hoheniollern, where
luncheon was served. -.

ship arising between the two nations. May
It be to the benefit of our two great na

the kind words your royal highness has
expressed on my behalf and I wish you to

the fact that hla majesty the German em
trnr haa sent vou to the American Deoul
and I thank you personally that you have
taken a etep which naturally must knit
eloeer together the two great nations
whose friendship means so much for the
future welfare of the entire world. To e
prees Anally a personal wlah of my own, I
look forward with great pleasure to the day
on which I shall be your guest In your ca

Mrs. Roosevelt smilingly took the pencil
from him god added-ft few words: She then
passed the pad and pencil to Mlsa Alice,

North of the terries craft cf all eorte was

south wind stirred tha bay Into ft rolling
tempestuous sea, against which anchors
were almost futile. Swell after swell, each
apparently heavier than the one preoeding,

close to tho piers and to the plana and kept

The transport Solace, with nothing but
200 tons of coal to keep it down, broke from
Its anchorage off Beale street and careened
about the bay like a drunken sailor. It
drifted broadalde-on until a collision with
the government steamer Albatross seemed
Imminent, but it veered off In the nick ol
time. The wind and the swell caused It to
drift helplessly, sending it finally toward
the transport wharf at Foliom street. The
officers of the service gathered on tho pier,'
fully expecting Solace to crash Into the

M. Tsilka Under Suspicion.
BTRUMITZA, Macedonia, Feb. 25. M.
Tsilka, husband ot Mme. Tsilka, Miss
Stone's companion in captivity, went to
the railroad station at 8aloka In the hope
of accompanying the party of M. Gargtulo,
dragoman of the American legation, to this
place. But the Turkish authorities re
fused him permission to do so, declaring
they suspected him ot conniving at the
capture ot Miss Stone.
Miss Stone and Mme. Tsilka are quartered
at the residence of M. Kimltoff, a Protest'
ant pastor, where they greeted M. Gar
gtulo and Mr. House, the missionary, with
considerable emotion. Here they pre
eented Mme. Tsllka's baby, and- the man
who found them at th mountains at Gra-
dacor to M. Gargullo and Mr. House.
Since the first fortnight of their captivity
the ladles have been traveling In the moun
tains. They were hidden In the' day time
and hurried along at night" blindfolded
and on horseback. On one occasion Miss
Stone's horse fell and she was thrown to
the ground, but escaped with a badly
bruised knee. '

at Boston has telegraphed Secretary Hay
an expression of thanks for efforts of the
State department, which have resulted in
Miss Stone's release.
ONLY A SUGGESTION
But It Has Proven ot Interest and
Valuu to 'I bouaands.
Common sense would suggest that if one
wishes to become fleshy and plump It can
only result from tho food we eat and digest,
and that food should ba albuminous or flesh-
forming food, like eggs, beefsteak and ce
reals; In other words, the kind of food that
nrakee flesh are the foods which form the
greater part ot our daily bljli ot tare.
But the trouble 1 that while we eat
enough and generally too much, the atom
ach, from abuse and overwork, does not
properly digest and aislmllate It, which la
the reaaon ao many people remain thin and
under weight; the digestive organs do not
completely dlgeat the fleah-tormlng beef
steak and eggs and similar wbolesoms food.
There are thousands of such who are
really confirmed dyspeptics, although they
may havs no particular pain or Incon
venience 'rom their stomachs.
If auoh persons would lay their preju
dices aside and make a regular praotlca of
taking, after each meal, one or two of
Stuart'a Dyspepsia Tablets the food would
be quickly and thoroughly digested, be
cause thess tablets contain the natural pep
tones and dlaatase which every weak stom
ach lacks, and by supplying thla want the
stomach la soon snabled to regain Its nat
ural tone and vigor.
Stuart'a Dyspepsia Tablets digest every
form of flesh-forming food, meat, eggs, bread
end potatoes, and thla la tha reaaon they
so quickly build up, strengthen and In
vigorate thin, dyspeptic men, women and
children.
Invalids and children, even the most deli
cate, uee them With marked benefit, as they
contain no strong, irritating drugs, no ca
thartic nor any harmful ingredient.
Stuart'a Dyspepsia Tablet Is the most
successful and most widely known of aay
remedy for stomach troubles, because It le
the most reasonable and eelentiae of mod
ern medicines
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by
every druggist In the United States and
