Boston, Mass.,, Aug. 19.—Men, women and children, including scores of summer tourists from the South and West. visited the Charleston navy vard today to gaze reverently at the old frigate Constitution on the occa- sion of the one hundredth anniver- sary of her famous victory over the Guerriere. The famous ship, long known to history as “Old ITronsides,” was decorated from stem to stern in henor of the anniversary. The battle between the Constitu- tion and the Guerriere was one of the most notable actions in the naval his- tory of the United States. The Con- stitution, in command of Captain Hull, had left Boston late in July and after crulsing about several weeks fell in with the Guerriere on August 19, 1812. The action commenced late in the afternoon. After several heours of terrific fighting, with the vessels linked so closely that the bat- tle developed into a hand to hand conflict, Captain Dacres of the Guer- riere struck his colors. The surren- der of the British did not occur, how- ever, until after their vessel had been ally shot to pieces and her decks d with the dead and dying. Great was the excitement in Bos- ton when the Constitution arrived with her prisoners a few days later. The victory had come at a time when the public mind required cheering. The British had scored a succession of land victories, along the Canadian frontier, and for weeks the papers had been unable to record any suec- cess for the American arms. il ® KEEP THE BARN CLEAN. The regulations of the state board of health in regard to stables provide that all private stables shall be clean- ed once a day and the manure put in a fly proof box and sprinkled daily with a solution of one pound of green vitriol to a gallon of water. The floors of the stable should be sprink- led with the same mixture each day after cleaning. This will prevent flies. Manure should be hauled away once a week and not put in dumps to give flies a breeding place. When it is necessary to store manure, each fresh supply should be sprinkled with the above solution. Livery stables can dispose of man- ure best by putting it into boxes on wheels and this accumulation should be removed daily when possible. A number of townsof the state are endeavoring to have these regula- tions enforced.—Health talk No. 9. MAY ABANDON SPUR. Nebish Spur and Station May Be Dis- continued This Fall. A. C. Clausen, secretary of the state railroad and warehouse commission, has set Wednesday, August 28, at 10 a. m., in the capitol at St. Paul as the time and place for a hearing on the matter of the abandonment of the Nebish spur and station by the Red Lake road. The village of Nebish has been practically abandoned and the Red Lake trains lose time by having to back down the siding twice a day. The Nebish station is less than a mile from Whitfish so that the farmers near Nebish will not be without transportation facilities. It is understood that as soon as the Nebish station has been discon- tinued, a new townsite will be laid out at Whitefish Junction. BOND ELECTION TUESDAY.

Delaware Republicans. | | Dover, Del.,, Aug. 19.—Republican I‘leaders of Delaware are rounding up' ghere for their state convention to«‘ imorrow. In addition to naming three lcaudidates for presidential electors, | |nominations will be made for gover- |nor and other state officers and a representative in congress. The reg- \ular organization, led by Senators {DuPont and Richardson, expects to control the convention and defeat any move made in behalf of the Progres- sive party. Dr. Luther S. Conwell, of Camden, is most prominently men- tioned for the nomination for gover- nor. There appears to be consider- able opposition to the renomination of Congressman William H. Heald, for a third term. The opposition is based primarily on the unwritten law in Delaware by both parties not to allow a representative more than two terms. Oklahoma Labor Federation. Shawnee, Okla., Aug. 19.—Nearly 200 delegates representing the prin- cipal cities and towns of Oklahoma as- sembled here today for the annual state convention of the Oklahoma branch of the American Federation of Labor. Sessions will continue through the greater part of the week and will be devoted to the considera- tion of numerous questions affecting the interests of organized labor. State President C. C. Ziegler called the gathering to order and delivered BUSY WEEK AHEAD OF CONGRESSMEN (Continued from first page.) in which the appropriation of $225,- 000 for the tariff board is at issue, is approaching settlement in the com- mittee. Out of 259 items in the $116,000,000 bill upon which the two houses disagreed, all but about fifty have been settled, and agreement on these are expected early this week. The house yesterday asked the senate to compromise the naval fight on a one battleship basis and an agree- ment on the naval bill is expected im- mediately. The other measures will not take much time. The senate will take up the six year presidential term resolu- tion, the reform bill of lading meas- ure and the bureau of labor bill this week. All legislation aside from the appropriation bills is likely to be laid aside, however, as it is the desire to complete the session by Thursday or at least by the end of the week. Over the white house cups, Presi- dent Taft and the cabinet yesterday discussed the Panama canal bill and the question of a possible presiden- tial veto of the measure. Every mem- ber of the president’s official family who was in town, was present, and the discussion lasted an hour after luncheon time, but no decision was reached. Inclined to Approve Bill. The president’s inclination, it was said tonight, was to approve the bill but he is anxious to have a provision made for a legal test of the matter of free tolls for American ships. The cabinet was understood to agree with him that there is basis for believing the bill with the free toll clause in it is not in conformity with the Hay- Paunceforte treaty. May Have Court Pass On It. ‘When the conference was over the president was still of the opinion that the best way to test the bill’s agree- ment with the treaty was to have the United States supreme court pass up- on it. He will confer with the senate and the house leaders in the next few days and will devote most of his time to pondering over the one bill. Most of the Republican leaders in both houses and probably some of the lead- ing Democrats will be called into con- sultation and the bill will be gone over with care. Probably Too Late to Amend. The president was told today that it is probably too late to amend the bill and that the action he may take must be in the form of a veto unless he can get the Republican and Demo- cratic leaders to agree upon a general resolution that would show the Unit- ed States had no intention in passing this measure of abrogating the exist- ing treaty with Great Britain. Such a resolution would permit foreign steamship companies to test in the United Stateg court, the validity un- der the treaty. READY TC NOTIFY MARSHALL.

MINNESOTA LAWYERS MEET. Minneapolis, Minn.,, Aug. 19.— Many leaders of the bench and bar faced President C. A. Severance this afternoon when he called to order the annual meeting of the Minnesota State Bar association and delivered his annual address. President Sev- erance was followed by Walter George Smith of Philadelphia, presi- dent of the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws, who spoke on the subject of “Uniform Legislation.” The meet- ing will continue its sessions over to- morrow and Wednesday.

St. Paul, Aug. 19.—F. H. Peterson of Moorhead, a member of the state senate for several terms, this morn- ing filed for congress from the Ninth district. He will oppose Congress- man Steenerson. Mr. Peterson has been urged to file for congresg at several different elec- tions, but has hesitated to enter the| race. Canada’s Oldest Man. Kingsville, Ont., Aug. 19.—Henry Washington, a well known negro res- ident of this place, celebrated his one hundred and sixteenth birthday an- niversary today. He is believed to be the oldest man in Canada. Washing- ton was born in slavery in Kentucky and escaped to Canada previous to the beginning of the civil war. The suffrage parade in New York city on November 9th will, it is hop- ed, celebrate a victory in some at least of the states where campaigns iare now one. “The demonstration will not be merely a jubilee in any {event,” Mrs. James Lees Laidlaw | says, for “it is intended to warn the lawmakers of New York that their efforts to block suffrage by wire-pul- ling and political chicanery will at most only postpone the inevitable emancipation of women in New York.” It will be an old-fashioned night parade. Some of the oil-cloth caps and capes worn in the Cleve- land and Stevenson campaign have been resurrected and will be worn by members of the Voters’ League. 5,000 fete lanterns have been secured from Paris. Torches, electric batons and 'searchlights will add to the bril- liancy of the parade. v, Brinkman Theater Tonight Vaudeville Program The Feature Attraction The Regina Girls In Vaudeville Picture Program Made Up of the Best Gom- edy and Drama Picture Plays that Gan Be Secured.
