Victoria, B. C., Sept, 17.—Officers of his
majesty’s ship Grafton admit that there
is a good deal of probability in the state-
ment that the Russian vessel Korea may
come here to refit and say they would
not be surprised should she come. The
officers of the fleet are not concerning
themselves nearly so much about the ex-
.pected arrival of the Korea as they are
about the reported disaster to his ma-
jesty’s sloop of war Shearwater, in Alas-
kan waters. It has been found impos-
sible to obtain any further information as
to how the Shearwater is faring. If the
naval authorities could get the slightest
verification of the report that something
has happened to the Shearwater they
would dispatch a cruiser to her assistance
immediately. The report of her mishap
came to Nanaimo, Vancouver Island,
through some sealing men returning from
the north. The British naval authorities
hope to hear definite news from United
States patrol vessels or some south bound
Alaskan liners. It is known that the
place where the Shearwater is supposed
to have gone ashore is frequently visited
by American revenue cutters, which could
render valuable assistance.
The Shearwater is a sister ship of the
ill-fated Condor, which was foundered
with all hands on board in collision with
the collier Mattewan off Cape Flattery
two or three years ago. She was built in
1900 and is of the Nymph class, a sloop of
war of 1000 tons, 13, knots speed and 10-
gun equipment.

Claim They Are Being Victimized by
Owners of Carts.
By Associated Press.
New York, N. Y., Sept. 17.—Trouble is
again brewing among the push cart
peddlers of the East Side, who' claim they
are being victimized by a recently formed
combination of stablemen. The latter term
is applied to owners of push carts who
rent them out at a fixed daily rate and
maintain, underneath tenement houses,
storage places for the carts where they
are kept at night. Sixty-seven stablemen,
each owning from 200 to 350 carts, have
organized and, according to the peddlers,
have advanced rates from 10 and 20 cents
to 50 cents! a day. The peddlers declare
they could make little profit at the old
rate, and as they have no place to keep
carts are still compelled to pay the higher
rates or quit. They are planning to ask
the city authorities for a public place
where they may maintain stables of their
own.

Illness Causes Joseph Jefferson to Cancel
All His Engagements,
By Associated Press.
■New York, N. Y., Sept. 17.—Preparations
for the autumn tour of the veteran actor,
Joseph Jefferson, have been abandoned
and all engagements for the season can-
celled, according to the Herald. Recently
he was attacked by indigestion at Buz-
zards Bay and, because of his advanced
age, some alarm was felt. He soon r<^
covered, but after a consultation with his
physicians has decided to abandon plans
for the season and to remain at his sum-
mer home, going later to Florida.
New York, Sept. 17.—An unusual influx
of Irish immigrants in the last two months
is reported by the immigration authorities.
The records show that in the last seven

arrived at Ellis Island. Of these, nearly
70 per cent were girls, and only a small
percentage of the total were over 23
years old.

No Garten. That statement Is much in
little. Old Sol, who at this season of the

dire fact that the Garten Verein was dark

around the Garten concerts and dances.
Tonight, however, unless the elements de-
cree otherwise, the mid-summets n.’gbts

up for the dark pavilion and the disap-
pointment of vhe mid week.

Boschke and Mrs. Luckett are now back
in El Paso for the winter, after a de-
lightful summer trip spent at Cloudcroft,
New Mexico. Of this mountainous resort
Mrs. Boschke has sent the following
charming sketch: “The ride up the moun-
tain to Cloudcroft is simply grand, but
the enjoyment of same is rather marred
by being constantly paralyzed with fear,
for it is such a steep mountain grade.
The mountain is beautiful all the way up,
and when the top is reached the scene is
indeed beautiful, with its big, big trees.”

Santa Cruz, Cal., Sept. 16.—Fire in the
Big Baisin is now well under control and
the state park is saved. On account of
the false reports going out, Park Commis-
sioner H. F. Kron, who has just returned
from Big Basin, makes the following
statement:
“The California redwood park is abso-
lutely safe. Sempervirens and Governors
camps are intact. Through the heroic
work of Warden Pilkington, with the able
assistance of the McAbee brothers and I.
T. Bloom at most critical moments, the
danger of burning Governor’s camp- was
averted. The clearing of dead brush and
fallen timber last winter saved the Sem-
pervirens camp. It is only theeast side
of the park that has been touched at
all.” '
Was the Babe After a Ten-Mil® Ride Be-
hind Runaway Horse.
Peoria, Ill., Sept. 16.—Little Irving Pot-
ter, aged 13 months, survived a perilous
ride of ten miles behind a frightened
horse, which turned the buggy in a 20-foot
ravine, completely covering the child with
wreckage,
Mr. Potter and his wife drove to Keller
Station, and when assisting his wife to
alight from the buggy his horse started.
No one was in the buggy but' the baby.
The vehicle and its precious freight were
soon lost to sight. Potter hurriedly, how-
ever, secured a horse and chased the run-
away on horseback. After a ten-mile run
the frightened horse turned the vehicle
into a ravine.
The buggy formed a cover for the chi’d,
and when the father reached the scene an
hour later the child was found uninjured.

THE ORIGINAL REMEDY THAT “KILLS THE DANDRUFF GERM.”
SCHOOL CHILDDREN.
Every school child should know that baldness is a con-
tagious disease, caused by a microbe. Prof Uniia, of
Hamburg, Germany, discovered that dandruff, itching
scalp, falling Hair, and final baldness are produced by a
germ or microbe that passes from one head to another,
where it burrows into the scalp and by multiplying and
extending deeper and deeper into the hair follicles, saps the
life of the hair root and produces baldness.
IT TAKES YEARS
to produce complete baldness, for the action of the dand-
ruff microbe is not constant in every case. It is governed
by predisposition, by the state of health, by environment,
but particularly by the endeavor made to combat the growth
and development of the dandruff microbes, which can only
be destroyed with Newbro’s Herpicide.
This new antiseptic scalp germicide is past the experimental
stage. It was made to destroy the germ that causes dandruff
and falling hair, and by coaxing energy back into the im-
poverished bulbs, it enables the hair to grow naturally and
luxuriantly. Thousands of letters from physicians, clergy-
men and laymen tell the same story of its wonderful success.
