SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM “AMERICAN PEOPLE SHOULD EXERCISE COMMON SENSE.” The following, taken from one of the messages which ex-President Roosevelt submitted to congress during the closing days of his ad- ministration, contains some good, wholesome, sound sense that is worthy of remembering: “The tasksthis nation has to do are great tasks. They canonly be done at all by our citizens acting to- gether, and they can be done best of all by the direct and simple applica- tion of homely common sense. The applications of common sense to common problems for the common good, under the guidance of the principals upon which this republic was based, and by virtue of which it exists, spells perpetuity for the nation, civil and industrial liberty for its citizens, and freedom of oppor- tunity in the pursuit of happiness for the plain American, for whom this nation was founded, by whom it was preserved, and through whom alone it can be perpetuated. Upon this platform—Ilarger than any party differences, higher than class pre- judice, broader than any question of profit and loss—there is room for every American who realizes that the common good stands first.” “DR.” TILL “TILLED” THE PEOPLE. The Princeton Union says of “Doctor” Till, whose performances as the “healer” have been given such wide publicity among people of the northwest that he was being closely allied to the Supreme Being: ““Till, the Wisconsin quack doctor, has packed his grip and set sail for Germany, where he thinks his ser- vices will be more fully appreciated. The physicians of this country, he says, have persecuted him until he can stand it no longer. Till is one of the greatest frauds that ever pulled the wool over the eyes of suffering humanity, but humanity, whether it is suffering or not, loves to be humbugged, It must be said in Till’s favor, however, that he had mastered the art of amassing riches without work or solicitation.” PRESIDENT PENNA " OF BRAZIL DEAD Sudden Passing of Head o South American Republic. Washington, June 15.—President Penna of Brazil is dead. The news ‘was received in a dispatch to the state department from the American am- bassador at Rio de Janeiro. The death of Dr. Penna was evident- 1y sudden. Other than a dispatch re- ceived frem Rio de Janeiro saying that he was gravely ill and that as a consequence the ministers had been summoned to the palace, there has been no intimation that he was in ill health, The last report of his doings concerned his message at the opening of the Brazilian congress May 4 and his refusal two weeks later fo accept the resignation of the Brazilian min- ister of finance. Dr. Penna was elected to office by universal suffrage in the twenty fed- erated states in 1900 and assumed of- flce Nov. 15 of that year. His term would expire in 1910. He was vice president of the republic and presi- dent of the senaie at the time of his election to the chief i egistracy. KING REGRETS DEPARTURE Ambassador Griscom Quits His Post at Rome. Rome, June 15.—Lloyd Griscom, the retiring American ambassador to Italy, was received in farewell audience by King Victor Emmanuel and presented " LLOYD GRISCOM. Ris letters of recall. His maljesty again expressed his high appreciation of Mr. Griscom’s services in the inter- est of the two countries, -especially during the days following the Mes sina earthquake, and voiced his re gret at the embaasador’s departure, GHANBEI] GOWNS | SIX TIMES DAILY Mrs. Gould Explains Large Bills for Clothes. ACCESSORIES EXPENSIVE Each Gown Had Hats, Shoes, Stock- ings and Parasols to match-—De- clares the “My Dear Malloy” Let- ters Were Addressed Simply In Terms ‘of Politeness and Nat in Terms of Endearment. New York, June 16.—So large a erowd gathered to attend the trial of the suit for separation of Katherine Clemmons GdMa against ,Howard Q(ould that special police measures were necessary to preserve order. The great majority were disappointed, 2s Justice Dowling limited admission to the seating capacity of the court- goom. Mrs. Gould showed few evidences of nervous tension under the rapid fire of cross-examination which Delancy Nicoll, attorney for Mr. Gould, began to direct at her when she resumed the Ques- stand at the opening of court. tioned in regard to her acquaintance and meetings with Dustin Farnum, the actor, the witness testified that she d1d not remember meeting Farnum be- tween August, 1905, when he dined dined together at a hotel in that city. Mr. Nicoll read from the deposition of Elijah Sells, Mrs. Gould’s cousin, in which he stated the conditions upon which Howard Gould offered a reconciliation with his wife. The con- ditions were that Mrs. Gould was not to interfere in the management of she was to abstain from intoxicants; to refrain from hu- Castle Gould; millating Mr. Gould before his friends and she was to agree to a refutation of her personal finances. Mrs. Gould would not admit the specifications of this agreement when questioned about it, but said “they had asked her to sign a paper to abstain from intoxi- cants.” “My Dear Malloy” Letters. Clarence J. Shearn, Mrs. Gould’s ocounsel. questioned her at length on redirect examination. She said the letters she had written to Mr. Mal- loy, manager of Castle Gould, which were read in evidence and were ad- dressed to him as “My Dear Malloy,” were addressed simply in terms of po- liteness and not in terms of endear- ment. Mr. Shearn referred to the large bills which Mrs. Gould had incurred to her husband’s account just prior to and following thelr separation in July; 1906, and which were still unpaid at various stores and millinery shops here and in Paris. He drew from the witness the statement that- if Mr. Gould had given her the allowance he promised she could- have paid them all. Mrs. Gould said that as far back as 1899 her husband promised to al- low her $10,000 a month. The witness sald she had to have at Castle Gould morning, afternon and evening gowns, with shoes and stockings that matched, tea gowns, coaching gowns, shopping gowns, which she used about the city, and with most of these hats, shoes, stockings and parasols to match. Yet yachting costumes were distinct from the othors and had to have their expensive accessories, the witness said. She was accustomed to change her gowns sometimes fivé and six times a day. She had to dress at least three times a day at Palm Beach and more than that during her various trips about Europe. In answer to questions regarding the cost of her various dresses, ete., Mrs. Gould gave the following esti- mates: Dinner gowns, $500 to $600; morn- ing gowns, $100 to $150; day gowns (worn shopping, gowns, $300 to $400; reception gowns, $500. For motoring and coaching and yachting the witness said she required particular gowns, but did not say how much she paid for them. PRESENT RULES OBSELETE Lipton Will Not Challenge for Ameri- ca's Cup. Belfast, June 15.—Sir Thomas Lip- ton, in an interview, made it quite clear that he had no intention of com- peting for the America’s cup under the present conditions. “No man will bnild a boat to sail nnder conditions that are or should be past,” Sir Thomas said, “I am al- ways willing to glve the Americans the advantage of their own universal rule under which they have had ex- perience in building and sailing and I am ready to challenge thereunder, but I will not try again under the rule ot fifty-six years ago. 1f I challenge un- der the international rules governing Europe they would say I had a ‘pull.’” Finally Lands in Penitentlary. Chicago, June 15.—The long fight of former Judge Abner Smith to escape the penitentiary ended by Smith sur- rendering himself at the prison. Bmith, for ears a respected judge of: the circuit :ourt, was convicted of vio- lating the banking laws while he was president of the now defunct Bank of America. GREAT. CHURCH CONVENTION Twenty-five Mlllions Rc‘pnunted at Presbyterian Alliance Meeting. New York, June 16.—One of the most important religious gatherings ol recent years in the number -of sons represented i¥°that of the worl Presbyterian alliance, which began ln with her at Castle Gould, and a meet- ing in Hartford, Conn, when they ete.), $500; tea” ally m!eu‘ed to as the PnnAPresby- “terian alliance. The mesting will 1ast ten days, dur- ing which subiects of - great moment. to the Protestant world will be dis- cussed. Addresses -have hoen an- nounced upon’ “The Pre-existence of Christ,” “Our Lord's Virgin Birtl “Our Lord’s Resurrection,” “The New- er Phases .of HKvolution,” “The Newer Phases of Theological Training,” “The Reacent Testimony of Archaeology. to- the Scriptures” and on many other siinilar theologieal questtons, In ad- dition ‘the attitude of the churches represented on marriage and divorce, temperance, church unifon and other questions of the day will be discussed. England, Scotland, France, Italy, Arabia, Canada and other countries have sent delegates to the convention, |- as well as the United States. The theologluns assembled here are num- bered among the leading exponents of Protestant thought in their respective. countries, and their views will be read with interest throughout the world. Adaditional interest is lent to this Pres- byterian convention by the fact that this year marks, the five hundredth an- niversary of the birth of John Calvin, who is looked upon by Presbyterians as the founder of their church. Two days of the convention are to be de- voted to addresses upon the life and ‘works of Calvin. PORKERS SELL FOR $8 PER HUNDRED nghésl June Price for Live Hogs Since 1882, Chicago, June 15.—The highest June, price for live hogs since 1882 was es- tablished at the Union Stock Yards. Best porkers sold at $8 per hundred pounds. With the exception of 1902 this is the highest price recorded for any month since the Cudahy pork cor- ner in 1893, when live hogs sold at $8.75 a hundred weight. The prevailing high prices are due to unusually light receipts of live hogs this spring at all Western packing centers, the extremely high price of grain last year prompting many farm- ers to dispose of stock rather than pay for feed stuff. Recelpts of hogs at the nine leading markets of the ‘West were 29,000 head less than for the corresponding day last week and 32,650 less than the receipts a year ago. As a result of the scarcity of hogs the price of provisions is now the highest in many years. Maine Forest Fires Checked.
