welcomed. as he crossed the line between
states to Jersey City by a delegation of
prominent citizens in New Jersey. He
12m New York over the Central Railroad
of New Jersey, taking the -:l 45 twin £01

H. P. Baldwin, passenger agent of the
Central Railroad of New Jersey, and Dr.
Jacob E. Price, dean of the Ocean Grove
Summer school. The party traveled in
5he drawing room car Kathleen.

The governor expressed his admiration
sit- the beautiful scenery along the coast,
and he remarked the many changes that
had occurred since he last traveled over
the road 12 years ago. At Red Bank, El—
beron, Allcnhurst and ‘Vest End Govern-
br Roosevelt was heartily cheered. On
the arrival of the train at Ocean Grove
it was found that many holiday seekers
from points along the coast had gathered
.311 the vicinity of the station. The train
hands assisted the police, but it was with
difficulty the governor made his way to
his carriage through the cheering crowd.

Governor Roosevelt was deeply im-
pressed with his reception and stood up
in the carriage bowing right and left.
Mr. A. H. Dehaven rode in the carriage
with Governor Roosevelt. One hundred
bicyclists bearing small American flags
and other emblems acted as a body-

guard. Governor Roosevelt and his party
were driven to the home of A. De-

Outside of Mr. Dehaven’ s home a com-
pany of boys in Rough Rider uniform
was drawn up, and as Governor Roose-

of drums and:- the boys prescntpd arms.

30v ernor Roosevelt at dinner. The
guests were Bishop FitzgeraldJ Congress-
man Howell, Senatm Skirm,J M. Wil-
liams. H. P. Baldwin and Dr. J. E.
Price and Mrs. Price.

During the dinner a crowd gathered in
the vicinity of the Dehaven cottage, and
when the governor appeared to go to the
Auditorium the crush was still greater.

"It was estimated that 10,000 people as-

sembled in the Auditorium to hear the
orator. The hall was filled, and at the
lower windows people stood three deep.

On the arrival of Governor Roosevelt
at- the Auditorium the large assemblage
arose and, led by a choir of 300 voices,
sang “Ma1ching Through Georgia.’ The
governor was then greeted w ith the Chau-
taunua salute, the waving of handker-
chiefs, the cheering being kept up for
several minutes.

The audience expressed their apprecia-
tiOn of Governor Roosevelt’s address by
so much cheering that the governor was
compelled to ask them to desist. Eve1y
allusion to the Philippines question was
the signal for renew ed outbursts of. cheer-
ing. Vice President Hobart was unable
to be present owing to ill health, but he
sent a letter of 1egret. At the conclusion
of Governor Roosevelt's address the choir
and audience closed the services by sing-
ing the “Hallelujah Chorus.” Imme-
diately after the- exercises Governor
Roosevelt drove over to Norwood, Vice
PresidentHobart’s home, Where he spent
the night.

- Blind Preacher Stricken.

OMAHA, Aug. 4.——At the Epworth
assembly at Lincoln park yesterday aft-
ernoon, the Rev. \V.«H. Milburn, the
blind chaplain of the United States sen-
ate, was prostrated by the heat while in
the pulpit. He was talking on the sub—
jet-t “What a Blind Man Saw I11 lVash-
ington,” and the big tent was crowded.
Some of the auditors noticed that the
aged meat-her was tottering, and the next
instant he swooned in the arms of one
of the men on the platform. His extreme
age made his friends anxious, but his
stout constitution has up to this time ap-
parently been equal to the severe task.

Denver’s Mays." Vetoes Sparring Bill

DENVER, Ana. 4.—1‘.Iayor Johnson
has vetoed the ordinance placing the li-
cense for athictic clubs which conduct
sparring contests at $1.500. I11 his mes-
sage the mayor said: "I am unwilling to
approv: an ordinance which would make
it. possible to have repeated in Denver
such a brutal contest as was witnessed

in this city about one week ago at one of _

these so called athletic associations.“ It
as. not likely that the ordinance can be.
passed over the veto.

President Zelaya Referred to the
U. S. Treaty In His Annual Message.

“’ASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-——In his mes-
sage to the Nicaraguan congress VVednes-
day President Zelaya referred to a treaty
made with the United States of date Ap-
ril 20 last. It is learned upon inquiry at
the state department that this was mere-

ernment by which the $9,000 in- duties

Blueficlds against their protest by Gen-
eral Torres was placed in the hands of
the British consul at Bluefields pending
an agreement as to its disposition. Up
to this moment the two governments are
still in negotiation on this subject.

Senor Corea, minister from Nicaragua,
has returned to Washington after a two
months’ visit home, during which he con-
ferred with President Zelaya concerning
the Bluefields affair and also the Nicara-
gua canal question. During his visit the
Nicaraguan government honored M. CO-
rea by appointing him minister to Chile.
As he had numerous private interests in
W'ashington the appointment was finally
changed so as to make him minister at
Washington instead of charge d'alfaires.

When in Doub—_t, a Friend’s
Advice is Always
Appreciated.

Many times in the journev of life we
find‘ourselvesin doubt. and ’tis then
we app1 cuate most. the advice of a
friend or an acquaintance who has
traveled through the darkness into
.which we are just. about to plunge.
Showing the way is an act of friend-
ship. Faith can be placed in the ex-
periences and opinions of the gentle-
man who shows the way in the ,t‘oilow-
ing statement. He can be depended
upon to couoborate it in 1eply DO any
communication sent to him. It is onlv
a reecho of thetes timouyof thousands
of his fellow citizens, published in the
daily newspapers throughout the land.

Mr. F. S. Lyon,of22 High St1.,South
Norwalk,an ex- 1eacher,who v. asin har-
ness for nearly a quarter of a. century
in that city says: "A slight urinary
trouble accompanied bv backache at;-
tacked me from the result of a cold
which I caught at an entertainme
some years ago. It. hung on for a fenw
days and I looked around for some
medicinal preparation which would re-
move it. After reading quite a few
testimonials about panaceas and cure
{1115 for the kidneys, I selected Doan’s
Kidney Pills. It. did not- requiie a box
to remove all the difficulty. I have
heard in South No1 walk of over a

and obtained the same 1esult as I did. ”
