Choate of this city. Dorothy lisped the welcome *“‘In Jesus' Name.” These addresses of welcome were warm- ly responded to by the Rev.

Dickinson. organizer of the second Christian _Endeavor convention held in the State of Maine, but at prescnt a trustee of the United Soclety at Sacra- mento, delivered the convention_ sermon, which’ was a scholarly effort. His text was “Christ in you the hope of glory,” and in the three-quarters of an hour which he occupied he made plain to his audi- ence the necessity of striving to live bet- acted as Dunn’s assistant in making the investigations. He has just made the ar- rest of two Italians and a third man who | had hired them in Canada to work on | railroads in Washington State. They were the first of a large number to go through and the whole gang was effect- ively stopped. The inspector was dis- guised as a rancher and held the party up at the point of a revolver, which was the only chance he had of capturing them. Ccmmissioner White says that the Chi- nese go across the line all the_time, and most of those who land In Vancouver eventually make their way through to California. There are from 100 to 200 land- ed here by every steamer and the number | in Vancouver does not grow large. T'he | officers also say that with Chinese them- selves and Oriental goods a large smug- gling business is carried on between here and Puget Sound citles. The officials even have information that the smugglers have retained one of the best lawyers in the city to advise them and keep them posted on the operations of the authorities as well as to protect them if they are | pounced upon. There is but one revenue | cutter in the local service and officials state there is little chauce of catching the | offenders under present conditions. | It is also the intention of Dunn to msk the Washington authorities to endeavor | to solve the problem by handling it with Dominion Government officials. The ille- gal traffic at the boundary has reached such a serious state that it is almost equally to the interest of both countries that something should be done. No Danger Now From Indians.

EW THE WO T SHN PEDR Congressmen Inspect the Breakwater Near Los Angeles. LOS ANGELES, June 13.—Thirteen statesmen who help to guide the destinies of the nation spent a few hours at San Bgdro to-day on their tour of inspection of the big breakwater and the inner and outer harbors. Four members of the Riv- ers and Harbors Committee were absent when a_special train over the Southern Pacific Railroad pulled out of the Arcade station for San Pedro at 9:30 o’clock. The inspection party was composed of Theodore E. Burton of Cleveland, Ohio, i chairman; Walter Reeves of Streator, I11.: Roswell P. Bishop of Ludington, Mich.: Erne F. Acheson of Washington, Pa.: FPage Morris of Duluth, inn.; De Alva | 8. Alexander of Buff; N. Y.; Thomas | H. Tongue of Hillsboro, Or. George P. | Lawrence of North Adams, Mass.; James | H. Davidson of Oshkosh, Wis.; Rufus E. | Lester of Savannah, Ga.; James H. Bank- | head of Fayette, Ala.; Philip D. McCul- loch of Marianra, Ark.; Albert S. Berry of Newport, Ky.; Frank H. Hitchcock, chief of the bureau of foreign markets of the Department of Agriculture; J. W. Hencke, secretary to Chairman Burton, and Lyman M. Ellis, secretary to the Rivers and Harbors Committee. A dele- gation of business men and members of the Chamber of Commerce accompanied the visiting Congressmen. Arriving at San Pedro the members of the party were taken by rail out to the point where work is under way on the breakwater. The big steam derrick and a score of workmen were unloading rock at the time of the arrival of the party and continued operations during its stay in order that the Congressmen might clearly understand how the work is per- formed. Captain Meyler explained the character and extent of the work yet to | be performed. He said that 28,000 tons of rock were dumped into the breakwater during May. This menth the contractors expect to dump 35,000 tons into the work. Captain Meyler explained that this will meet the requirements of the contract with the Government. To all appear- ances the work is progressing as rapidly and satisfactorily as could be expccted. Many of the members of the Con- gressional committee expressed surprise at the magnitude of the undertaking. Leaving the breakwater, steam launches ‘were boarded for a trip through the inner harbor. During the trip about the inner harbor Chairman Burton dictated to his secretary frequent impressions of things that attracted his attention. In fact, throughout the entire trip the chalrman Iept his stenographer by his side and con- tinued to dictate to him page after page of notes. The onl}' time that Congress- man Burton actually ceased his labors ‘was when he sat down to luncheon in the Brighton Beach Hotel. Concluding the trip about the inner har- bor the members of the party boarded the steamer Falcon and were taken for a trip about the outer harbor, passing the breakwater and starting on the return g;_ahrne_v nearly opposite Point Firmin. is trip gave the members of the board a splendid opportunity to view the break- water and to take observations of the ex- tent and character of the operations. | curable cancer and kindred diseases. | ferring of the decoration took place at | OTE LIVES T0 INGURABLES Seven Catholic Women Earn the Cross of Calvary.

FLAGLER SEEKS DIVORCE FROM INSANE WIFE Standard Oil Magnate Would Be Freed From the Unfortu- nate Woman Upon Whom He Has Lavished Wealth During Incarceration in a Private Sanitarium in Florida NEW YORK, June 13.—Dipatches were received here to-day from Miami, Fla., saying that Henry M. Fiagler had brought suit for divorce under the new Florida law making Insanity a ground for such separation. Mr. Flagler, according to the dis- patches, arrived in Miami on Monday, June 3. With him were Judge Minor S. Jones of the Seventh Judicial District of Florida and Judge George P. Raney of Tallahassee. Judge Raney was sponsor for the new law making Insanity a ground for divorce. Soon after ghelr ar- rival notice of Flagler's intentiod to ap- ly for divorce from his wife, Ida A. g‘lagler‘ was posted on the door of the Dade County Courthouse and published in_the Miami papers. Mrs, Flagler has been in Dr. MacDon- ald’s Pleasantville Sanitarium more than two vears. It is said she lives like a rincess, Her husband is the richest man n Florida. He is_one of the heaviest stockholders in the Standard Oll Company Special Dispatch to The Call. and ranks high in wealth amo New York capitalists. His insane wife was Ida Shrouds, daughter of a Philadelphia clergyman and an actress. Flagler mar- ried her in 1883, before he had amassed millions. She was poor. In 189 she was declared a victim of chronic insanity and committed to the sanitarium. It is said Flagler spend $1000 a month to keep his wife in the luxury in which she lives at the sanitarium. The story goes that every night the demented woman adorns herself, expecting a visit from her husband. He used to visit her frequent- 1y at the sanitarium, but she exhibited no sign of recognition of him. This is the second time recently that the Standard Oil man's name has been before the public. He is defendant in a sult in_the Supreme Court, the plaintift being E. C. Foote, who demands $100,000 damages for the alienation of the affec- tions of his wife Helen. In the same court Mr, Foote has brought suit for divorce from his wife. He names as co-respond- ents Henry M. Flagler, John H. Malden and J. O'Bannon. Mrs. Foote married | Mr. O'Bannon after obtdnln, & South Dakota divorce, the validity of which is now attacked. Malden had long been an admirer of Mrs. Foote-O'Bannon, from whom he re- ceived favors, one of which brought him $20,000 and a suit to recover an additional sum of $1S368 from Flagler. Malden served six months in the Tombs and he loudly asserts the law was perverted for :’he purpose of bringing about his humilia- lon. The woman whose affections Flagler is alley to have allenated from her hus- band is about 28 years old. Her beauty of face and figure cannot be denled. She has had a host of admirers; her tollets have created a sensation in s and London as often as in New York. Quarrel followed quarrel between Mr. and Mrs. Foote and it was only a short time after her parents came to New York that Helen returned to live with them. She had previously become acquainted with Malden, and it is now said she was influenced in leaving her home by the in- fatuation which she had for him.
