Annapolis, Md., April 26.—The first and second crews of the Naval Acgdemy and Harvard are ready for the boat races this afternoon. Official weights show that the navy first crew is the heaviest, while the second Harvard crew has something on the navy juniors. Apparently there is little difference in weight and form hetween the Harvard two crews, Har- vard has had much better practice during the week, getting out in the morning when the water was smoother. Some afternoons it was too rough for rowing when the midship- men lost the day completely. “" For allments of body use Sun and M ointment and' liniment. For sale by DIcklr:mn Drug Co.—advt. in Hotel Containing $120 Cash Belonged to Two Women Who Lost No Time in New York, April 25.—The discovery of a mateless silk stocking at the Hotel McAlpin Thursday morning, and the circumstances attendant upon it, demonstrated to the satisfactfon of those who learned of it several things. In the first place, it was established, | 121 the opinion of this seif-elected judi- ciary, that the habit of the average woman in selecting a sifety deposit knows no national boundary. In the second place, still according to the same judges, a mutual, co-operative Panking institution, which is under no well-defined banking laws, and not subject to regulation, is apt to be an insecure depository for women in | strange place, though accident may rule otherwise. The intermational aspect . of this banking problem owes its existence to the fact that the stocking in question was found in a room ‘occupied by two pretty young Canadian women who had been passing the Easter holidays in New York. That the stocking was a bank was established by the fact that it contained money on deposit— all that is considered necessary to make a bank hereabouts, That it was a mutual or co-operative institution was proved by the fact that it con- tained joint capital, had as many as two depositors, and that the funds it contained were to be used for the financing part of the Easter trip of the two fair stockholders, whose identity is established. While the identity of the stocking owner is not yet proved beyond a doubt, she is either Mrs. Grossmith or Miss Rob- bins, of Montregl. The two visitors arose rather late ‘Thursday morning and went down- stairs to a leisurely breakfast. The meal finished, they declided they would go to Central Park and walk down Fifth avenue, taking a peep into the shops at the latitude where those begin. Learning that they could ride almost to the park on the Sixth avenue elevated raliroad, they walked over and bought tickets at the Thirty- third street station and boarded a train. They had not ridden far when, in that mysterious fashion women have at such times, they discovered that all | the money they had with them was just $1. Neither could remember Where the Test of their money was. The guard politely declined to stop il Claiming It—Had Missed Money While Sightseeing on Fifth Avenue. the train where it was at the time, so that it was not until it reached next station that the two visitors left it and descended to the street. Then they lost no time getting back to the hotel. On the sixth floor of that establish- ment a pew chambermald had been ' set to work, that being her first morn- ing. Miss Georgia Field, the clerk of the floor, whose duty it is to inspect the rooms after the chambermaids kave reported them “in order,” not being sure that the green hand could do the work required of her with ex- pedition and neatness, went over to the room occupied by the two Can- adian women and instructed her about the work. In showing how the bead should be unmade and then made. Mjss Field threw back the covering upon the footboard, and revealed, lving upon the bed, what was unmis- takably a silk stocking. She picked it up to hand to the maid, when the stocking unrolled and proved that it was not empty. When it was shaken a roll of bills fell out. Miss Field counted them and found there was $120. Hours passed after the money had Leen put in the safe on that _floor before anything was heard of a claim- ant, although of course the floor clerk conjectured that it belonged to one or the other or to both of the Canadian women. When the two women jin question, pale-faced and much ex- cited, stepped out of the elevator and hurried toward their room, and then came back to the desk, paler and still more excited, to report their loss at the desk, the clerk drew out of the safe their precious stocking and handed it to them. Miss Field recently had a experience in finding a bag of *jewels which their owner did not miss for four hours. On inspecting the room cccupied by Mrs. Chester A. Snyder of Kansas City after the maid had tidied it the floor clerk noticed a small chamois bag lying under thy head of the bed. Opening it, she tound two large unset diamonds, a pin containing a big ruby surrounded with diamonds, and a $20 bilL Mrs. Snyder, who is an ardent suf- fragist, had gone out early in the day to attend a.meeting of the Woman's Folitical Union, and did not miss her jewels until she returned to the hotel. NEW IDEAL CHURCH OPENED IN LONDON Rev. Hatty Baker Delivers First Ser- mon to Congregation From Which Men Are Rigorously Excluded. 25.—The - Church of the New Ideal, which admits no males to membership, has held its first services. The church i& located at Wallasey, the newly con- stituted borough on the Cheshire side of the Mersey. Some two hundred women _ assembled for the inaugural sermon delivered by the Rev. Hattiy Baker' of Plymouth. Men were rig- orously excluded. A preliminary declaration of rea- sons for the formation of the churéh sets forth ‘“the epach making' ad- vance in the self consciousness of women as a sex,” and women’s rea- lization of equality with man in re- ligious as well as other spheres of life. Their exclusion hitherto from |any share in conducting church s vices is referred to as an excl n by which the general progress of hu- manity has been delayed. The Rev. Hatty Baker, London, . April who wore Eat Less and Take Salts For Kidneys Take a glass of Salts if your hurts or Bladder Bothers. Back The American men and women must guard constantly against Kidney trouble, because we eat too much and all our food is rich. Our blood s filled with uric acid which the kid- neys strive to filter out, they weaken from overwork, become sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and the rs- sult is kidney trouble, bladder weak- ness and a general decline in health. When your kidneys feel like lumps of lead; your back hurts or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment or you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night; if you suffer with sick headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid stomach. or you have rheumatism when the weather is bad, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a table- spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This fa- mous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon Jjuice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys; to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer s a source of irritation, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in- jure, makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water beverage, and belongs in avery home, because nobody can make a mistake by having a good kidney flushing any time. what is described as a “white choker” and a black gown of conventionul clerical type, took as her subject, “God’s Glerious Ideal” She de- clared that churches as founded and conducted by men obscured this ideal, and the present effort was to create a church of the future which would be along the lines of the ideal. "Abra- ham, she said, as long as he acted on his own initiative made many mis- takes and twice had to be told by God to take the advice of his wife, and the greatest tragedy the world jhad ever witnessed would never have taken place if Pilate had listened to his wife. The male bias had ob- scured the message of Christ in the pgst and the present church would dd away with such bias. The preach- er warned her adherents that they must expect precaution and ridicule. In the evening a service to which men were admitted was held. EMPEROR’'S REST DISTURBED. Vienna, Austria, April 25.—Emperor Francis Joseph again passed a night disturbed by fits of coughing, but these were not so violent as they had been during the past two nights.

Greater Shows have completed all arrangements for the appearance of that world-famous enterprise New Britain on May 5. For more than a decade the Wheeler | Bros. circus has maintained a prom- |’ inent place in the front rank of American shows because of jts un- ' usual characteristics as a circus, s essential quality of “different in from { other shows,” its fine menagerie and tits great display of the finest horses in the world. The Famous Stampede . Wild West Shows, which have a { world-wide reputation and which were enjoyed by many people of this coun- try at two of the World’s Fairs, are conceded to be without equal in their special line. What then may be ex- | pected when it is announced that we | are to be treated to such an exhibi- tion as the combination of these two shows? Surely the patrons of tentcd amusements will be justified in ex pecting an unusually meritorious per formance, and they will see surpris- ing exhibitions of trained animals and skilfull performers such as they have never. before witnessed. | Among the many features are “Tan- g0,” earth’s largest living animal, a troupe of genuine Cossack Whirlwind Riders, Paris Hippodrome, Races and special engagement of the celebrated Mendaza company of Mexican Bull Fighters in a realistic reproduction of a Genuine Mexican Bull Fight.

Son of the late John Jacob Astor, By RUTH CAMERO We usually hear that question applied to one particular form of excess, but I mean to give it a broader gauge—do you know when you have had enough of ANYTHING? Enough is a small word but it is a big fact. There are few things in this world so bad as to be intrinsicaily harm- ful. The harm usually lies in the people who do not know when they have had enough. On the other hand there are few things in the world so good that they cannot be made harmful by people who do not understand the mean- ing of that big, little word, enough. Eating is a necessary and pleasant process, but over-eating Kills both body and mind. Exercise strengthens the muscleg but over-exercise tears them down A reasonable amount of study sharpens the mind. Over-studyimg dulls_it. The ancient Greeks, perhaps the wisest people who ever lived, two great mottoes. One aws “Know Thyself,” the other “Nothing in cess.” It would be hard to tell which of these two Is the greater. The inability to realize when one has had gnough shows itself thousand little ways. I have a friend who is unusually intelligent, of excellent presence and very persevering. He makes a pleagant impression upon evervone he meets. He ought to be a great success in a business v but he isn't. And the reason is, that although he makes a pleasant impression he doesn’t leave one. He meets a man, talks to him awhile, and wins him with the power of his personality. Then he talks to him a while longer and loses him by his long-windedness and his inability to know when he has had enough. Writers seldom know when they have enough. It is one of the sure signs of an unskilful writer that he isn't content with one adjective but con- tinually uses two or three. Any amateur can pile word on word and phrase on phrase, and description on descript'on. It takes the skilled man to know when to stop. ) A zreat many people do not know when they have enough furniture in a room. Out of a dozen rooms nearly a half dozen have too much in them. For one room that is spoiled by having too little in it, you will probably find a hundred spoiled by people who do not know when they have had enough. Learn to know when you have had enough, be it of phrases, food, furni- ture, or anything else in the world. For, as a friend of mine frequently says, “Enough is enough.” DO YOU know when you have had enough? had ex- in a HIGH GRADE ANI'MAL TO MAKE FARMING PAY Use a fertilizer that meets all the demands of the crop from plantin; to harvest.
