President’s Visit to Exposition
Abandoned at Last Moment.
SON’S ILLNESS THE CAUSE
Roosevelt Goes to Groton, Mass., to 3e
With His Boy Who Is Suffering
' From an Acute Attack
( of Pneumonia.
President Roosevelt, accompanied
by Secretary Cortdyou, left Wash
ington Saturday night at 12:10 for
Groton, Mass., in a special car at
tached to the regular train over the
Pennsylvanti railroad Late in the
evening ‘he president determined to
disr'whrd the request of his physician
a .a visit his boy’s bedside. It is
eiated the president felt his presence
would be a comfort to Mrs. Roosevelt,
and that as the critical period of his
boy’s illness was on, he should be
near his son. It is also stated that
the trip to Massachusetts is taken on
the president’s own initiative and is
not due to any alarming news which
has reached him concerning his son’s
condition.
The following statement was issued
at the white house Saturday.
“The condition of the president’s
son is favorable. The doctors say that
the president should not go to Charles
ton, as at any time within six days
the disease may take a sudden turn
for the worse.”
Owing to the request of the physi
cians the president has abandoned his
trip to Charleston.
Mrs. Roocevelt With Son.
Mrs. Roosevelt and maid reached
Groton early Saturday morning. At
the school Mrs. Room volt was receiv
ed by President Peabody, and a few
miutes later was at her boy’s bedside.
Subsequently an attempt was made to
obtain from Mrs. Roosevelt a state
ment for publication regarding the ill
ness of young Theodore, but through
President Peabody she declined to de
part from the course approved by
President Roosevelt. According to this
plan all necessary information con
cerning the lad’s condition will be
transmitted to President Roosevelt,
who will determine what news shall
be made public.
Charleston Is Disappointed.
The greatest disappointment is felt
in all circles in Charleston at the
abandonment of the pr< sident’s pro
posed trip to the city. Arrangements
had been made for a splendid recep
tion and everybody was looking to the
occasion as the great day of the expo
sition. Everything will have to be
called off, as the president was the
central figure of the program.
The president arrived at Groton at
2:30 o’clock Sunday afternoon, after
an uneventful trip of fourteen hours
from Washington. There were no
crowds at any of the stations, except
at Ayer, where titer.- was : gathering
of about five hundred. The president
came, out of bis si - lesion and bowed
to the crowd from tiie back platform,
his appearance being greeted with
cheers.
Upon iiis arrived at Groton he did
not find bis son. Theodore. Jr., alarm
ingly ill with pneumonia, but the boy’s
condition was not suillciently reassur
ing to warrant the pr. sklent's imme
diate return to the national capital.

CHARLESTON DISAPPOINTED.
Cancellation of President's Trip at
Last Moment Causes Much Sorrow.
The greatest disappointment is felt
In all circles in Charleston at the
abandonment of the president’s trip to
the Exposition City.
Arrangements had been made for a

ANYTHING SHE WANTED.
Embarrassing Joy of a Filipino When
a White Girl Spoke His Language.
Mrs. Mabel Loomis Todd, wife of
the Amherst astronomer, was telling
the Appalachian Mountain Club the
other evening about her experience in
the Philippine Islands last summer,
one incident of which contained a
warning against too great lingual fa
cility.
The party with which Mrs. Todd was
sojourning included a relative of one
of the Civil Commission, a young lady
who had lived several years in Samoa.
The party had reached one of the
southern islands of the Philippine
archipelago and were "meeting" a
group of the natives that had come
to greet them. These natives appear
ed to be somewhat different from the
run of Filipinos and were particularly
distinguished by the very handsome
beadwork on their garments. Men
and women wore it in elaborate and
exquisitely designed figures. All the
ladies of the touring party coveted
specimens, hut ail attempts to buy
some were fruitless. The natives
would not sell on any consideration.
The young i-ady who had lived so
long in Samoa overheard their conver
sation and remarked that she thought
she understood them, their dialect was
so nearly like the Samoan language,
of the older ladies the chaperones of
the young fry, urged her to go ahead
and see what she could do with Sa
moaft, accordingly did. The
chief, whom she addressed, threw up
his hands in surprise. “What,” he
said, “does the white maiden talk our
language?" He was evidently over
joyed and promptly asked her the
Samoan equivalent for “what he could
do for her?”
She told him in her sweetest Sa
moan how much she admired the head
work on their garments and how much
she would like to buy a piece of it to
take back to her own country and
show her countrymen how skilful and
artistic these particular Filipinos were.
“No,” said the chief with a lordly
wave of the hand, “You shall not buy.
You shall take as a gift.” Whereupon
he quickly removed his trousers and
handed them over with the unblushing
grace of a child of nature.
The young lady hastily resumed
her English tongue and the other
ladies of the party confined their fur
ther importunities to women of the
tribe.

TEN MILLIONS LOSS
Patterson, New Jersey, Visited
By Fearful Conflagration.
A DESOLATE WASTE OF RUINS
Twenty-Five City Blocks Are Reduced
to Smoking Embers and Ashes.
Thousands of Families Are
Rendered Homeless.
A great fire swept through Paterson,
New Jersey, Sunday, and in its deso
late wake are the embers and ashes
of property valued in preliminary esti
mate at $10,000,000.
It lturned its way through the busi
ness section of the city and claimed
as its own a majority of the finer
structures devoted to commercial, civ
ic, educational and religious use, as
well as scores of houses. There was
hut small tribute of life and injury
to the conflagration, but hundreds
were left homeless and thousands
without employment. A relief movev
ment for the care of those unsheltered
and unprovided for has already been
organized, and Mayor John Hench
Cliffe says that Paterson will be able
to care for her own without appealing
to the charity of other communities
and states. The great manufacturing
plants of the place are safe and the
community, temporarily dazed by the
calamity, has already commenced the
work of reorganization and restora
tion.
The fire came Saturday at midnight
and w-as only checked after a desper
ate fight that lasted until Sunday af
ternoon. Every city and town within
reach of Paterson sent firemen and
apparatus to the relief of the threat
ened city and it took the united efforts,
of them all to win the battle.
A northerly gale gave the conflagra
tion an impetus and carried its burn
ing brands to kindle the blaze afresh,
at other points. The firemen made
stsnd after stand before the wail of
fire, but were repeatedly driven back,
and w-hen victory finally came to them
they were grimed and exhausted.
Thousands Without Shelter.
An estimate made from a general in
slection of the smoldering ruins plac
ed the number of dwellings and apart
n.ent houses destroyed at five hundred
and the number of families left with
out shelter at one thousand. The area
of destruction foots up, roughly,
twenty-five city blocks.
l’hc fire began its work of far-reach
ing destruction in the power house of
the Jersey City, Hoboken and Pater
<■ol. Traction Company, which fronted
on Broadway, extended a block to the
rear on Van Houten street. It com
menced in the car sheds and was burn
ing fiercely when one of the employes

Atlanta Policeman Gets Bullet In
Brain While Attacking His Boy.
James Munroe Duncan, an Atlanta
police officer, was shot down by his.
wife Saturday night at 7:30 o’clock in
a boarding house at No. 51 North For
syth street. The wounded man was
removed at once to the Grady hospit
al unconscious and dying, while she
and her stepson, Claude, are held at
the police barracks to wait an investi
gation by the police and probably by
the coroner.
The shooting of Officer Duncan was
a tragic scene, with a most dramatic
story behind it.
Duncan had been on a protracted
spree and was said to have been drunk
at the time of the shooting. He threat
ened to kill his wife because she re
monstrated with him about drinking.
His son by his first wife begged hm
to treat his wife with courtesy. En
raged by the words from the son, Dun
can flew at him in a rage and struck
him a blow. The youth fell backwards
and his father began to choke him, at
the same time making an effort to
draw his pistol. Mrs. Duncan snatch
ed a pistol from the young man’s
pocket, and in another moment the offi
cer was lying on the floor in a pool of
blood and unconscious.

DURING THE ANTARCTIC NIGHT.
Everybody Content to Spend Twelve
Hours in Bed Each Day.
From this day (May 17) we were not
to see the sun again for two months.
At the beginning, we did not dread
the prospect of this long polar night
before us, but before the sun had been
gone many days one of us became very
ill. Danco lacked the constitution to
hold out, and on June b he died. In
the obscurity of the midday twilight
we carried Danco’s body to a hole
which had been cut in the ice and com
mitted it to the deep. A bitter wind
was blowing, as with hared heads, each
of us silent and sad, we left him there
* * * and the floe drifted on.
In the Antarctic regions, thanks
doubtless to the detestable climate,
the disastrous effects of the polar night
are far more marked than in the north.
There is a general lowering of the
system, and the heart acts feebly.
Several of us developed serious symp
toms, and without daily care on the
part of the doctor, others would not
have survived the period of darkness,
though it was relatively short. One
part of Cook’s treatment was very
effective and ingenious. Those who
were most affected by deficient circu
lation were made to stand in a half
naked condition close to the red-hot
stove for several hours daily. In this
way the action of the solar radiation
was in part replaced by rays of arti
ficial heat—in a manner admittedly
primitive, but none the less beneficial.
Life on hoard during the polar night
was of great interest from a psycholo
gical point of view. One finds one’s
self in conditions of existence alto
gether abnormal, and crowded against
one’s fellows in an uncomfortably nar
row space. Some became nervous, ex
citable and sleepless, with the imagina
tion continually wandering and dream
ing. I was one of these. Others more
happily constituted, became chroni
cally tired and indifferent; those slept
much. But everybody was content to
spend twelve hours a day, or more in
bed. One of the crew developed
maniacal tendencies; another, in more
case, was brought home insane. Since
the return of the expedition, one of
our best men,Knutzen, has died doubt
less from heart disease contracted in
the Antarctic.—Geographical Journal.

Miss Marion Cunningham, the Popular
Young Treasurer of the Young Womans
Club of Emporia, Kans., has This to Say of
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.
“ Dear Mrs. Pinkiiam : Your Vegetable Compound cured me
of womb trouble from which I had been a great sufferer for nearly
three years. During that time I was very irregular and would often
have intense pain in the small of my back, and blinding headaches and
severe cramps. For three months I used Lydia E. Pinkliam’s
Vegetable Compound, and aches and pains are as a past memory,
while health and happiness is my daily experience now. You cer
tainly have one grateful friend in Emporia, and I have praised your
Vegetable Compound to a large number of my friends. You have
my permission to publish my testimonial in connection with my picture.
Yours sincerely, Miss Marion Cunningham, Emporia, Kans.”
