Sir William vehemently attacked the Admiralty's policy in regard to ma rine engine boilers, and declared that all the ships fitted with Belleville boilers were unreliable. Mr. Arnold-Forster, Secretary of the Admiralty, referring to the extravagant statements of Sir William, said the Ad mlrallty hart discontinued the use of the Belleville boilers, and was now testing a new type of cylindrical boilers, and fol lowing the lead of the United States had adopted the McLausse boiler. As to armament and armor, he con tinued, the latest British battleship, the New Zealand, and the latest British cruis er, tho Dul:e of Edlnburg, would be with out parallel in the world. On the subject of sumarlne boats, the Secretary of the Admiralty Informed the House that, as a result of experiments with five purchased submarine vessels, the British Admiralty had produced a sub marine boat of wholly British design, which was a great improvement on the originals.

"I shall accept the office and go to Washington, not as the rcpresentatlv of any portion or locallty'of Oregon, but as a representative of the entire state. In the contest that has now closed I have frequently been pained to hear it said that If elected to the United States Sen ato I would represent the interest of one locality to the exclusion of another.

Good night," A stampede for the platform by the leg islators who had been voting for the win ner and the losers followed, and Senator Fulton had a brief but satisfactory recep tion.

In nominating Mr. Scott, Senator Smith said In part: "Gentlemen of the Legislative Assemblv we navo ocen voting here every day of this Legislative assembly, until 39 days have passed. As we watch that pendulum swing back and forth, each tick of It approaches the fatal hour when it will be decided whether wo shall have done our duty to the great State of Oregon. My own County of Multnomah has been ac cuaed of standing out, notwithstanding the fact that It represents a great nart of this great state, notwithstanding the iaci mat it nas naa no representation on tho state ticket, notwithstanding the fact that many members of the convention rec ognize the claim modestly made by Mult nomah that It should have some voice In naming the next United States Senator. None of tho names thus far put forth seems to have touched the popular chord. I rise, then, Mr. President, to make one more effort In that direction, and I trust that it will Impel you. gentlemen of this convention, to come together in this final effort In this 11th hour, and last hour of the last day of the last opportunity that we will have to elect a Senator. uememner the conditions thnt now pre vail.

It Is equal ly necessary that we use our Judgment In bringing forth the name of the man who will Insplro confidence in every heart, the name of the man who will Inspire confi dence In every heart, not only In this con vention but throughout the broad domin ion of this great state. "The name of the, man whom I shall present to you has not been brought forth through any efforts of his own. This man has not sought the position. It Is time in the history of Oregon. Mr. Presi dent, that the office should try to seek the man. Instead of the man seeking the of fice; and I believe this hour has now come. I therefore wish to place In nomi nation the name of Mr. Harvev w Scott." ' In .seconding the nomination of Mr Scott. Representative Malarkey said lti part: "I never cast a vote for a man whom I did not thlp.k was well qualified to repre sent the State ot.

He has passed upon all the great National questions, and as to his Integrity It has never been ques tioned. We have been told about the services that have been rendered and about the ability at the different gentle men whoso names have -been proposed. Mr. Scott has given good services, splen did service, and In this day and age the service rendered by a man In a newspaper office who gives to 10,000 minds their views on the great questions performs a greater service, a more, far-reaching service than can be rendered by any man speaking, no matter how eloquent he may be. With the service of the man for whom I speak, Mr. H. W. Scott, for the last 40 years before you.

BIG CROWD CHEERS FULTOX. Uovr the .ctt of the Astorlan's Elec tion Was Received In Portland. "Fulton is elected." Loud cheers arose from tho lanre crowd In front of The Oregonlan building when this notice was posted on the bulletin board. Early In the evening spectators began to assemble to read the bulletins that were posted as fast as received from the wire, and there was a good-natured Interest taken In the fortunes of all the candidates, by those who Jostled each other on tHe sidewalk or crowded unlucky mortals into the street. Fulton had many strong admirers, as well as fierce parti sans, and as each ballot was taken and It was seen the Astoria man was holding his strength, cheers would rise from his sup porters ana applause irom tne less demon. nirauve. Aooui li minutes to 13 a mes sage was received which said: "It begins 10 iook luce uiton,' 'and this was a sig nal for a noisy demonstration. A few minutes after 12 more cheers arose when the bulletin was chalked ud. "Fulton will be elected." About 12:10 the final an nouncement was made public, and the greatest demonstration of the evening took piace. Jiany prominent citizens and friends of Mr. Fulton were In the throng, and many telegrams of congratulation were Immediately sent to Salem. The public was kept Informed of th progress of the contest during the even ing also by the telephone, and The Ore gonlan staff answered many anxious In. quiries.

CHARLES WILLIAM FULTOX. Career, of Oreeon'i Xew Unltni States Senator. ASTORIA. Or.. Feb. 51. Charles William Fulton, who was elected to the United States Spnnt n j Senator Simon, will be SO years of age on August 24. IKS. He was born In the city of Lima. O.. 1SS3, and at the age of Z years his parents removed to Magnolia la., where the family resided for 16 years' At Magnolia Mr. Fulton received his early education, attending the common school. In 1871 his parents moved again to Pawnee City. Neb., at which place Senator Fulton took up the study of law In 1S73 and 1S74 he taught school, and during part of the time attended nn acad emy. In the Spring of 1S73 vounir Kvitn termlned to come West anrt m,w in ... year he landed In Portland, a tnt.n rtram;er. His finances were at a low ebb. but he secured a position as school master In the little, community of Water loo, Linn County. After teaching a term he came to Astoria, nrrlvlnr br 1.. t..i' 1S75. Since that time he has been a resi dent of this city and one of the moat prominent of Oregon's public men. Arriv ing ai Asrona, btnator Fulton hung out a law shingle. For a time nraetlr not brisk and Mr. Fulton waited long and patiently for that first client. Eventu ally the client camoand the young law yer was not long in convincing the public here that there was something In btm Ills First Taate of Politics. At first Mr. Fulton took no nptlv in. tcrest In politics. He ihimnM th r,,fi- san strife that was periodically waged, but In ip he was caught In the whirl. In 1S77, ho had formed a law partnership with J. W. Robb. who was managing Re publican affairs here, and in the following year Mr. Robb caused him to be nomi nated for State Senator from Clatsop Columbia and Tillamook Counties. His opponent was Dr. Dodd. a Democratic war-horso, who had foucht out n bitter campaign. It really looked a hope- iur iuo young man, nut he made A RACE FOR LIFE. Spurring his jaded horse to renewed efforts when the animal should be re freshed with proper food and rest, is about as sensible as prescribing nerve tonics, .alcoholic compounds, coca mix tures and cocktails which only spur oa the already weakened nervous system. Neither does it do to put the nerves to sleep with narcotics. When you feel worn-out, broken down, jaded, and feel the effects of brain tire as well as nerve weakness, sleeplessness and fa tigue, take Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, a tonic which will do you lasting good, build you itp,.increase your appetite and strength and improve the condition of the Wood. When the blood is impoverished the nerves feel the effect. Nervousness in nine cases out of ten is the." cry of the starved nerves for food:" Feed. the nerves on pnre rich blood and all nervous manifestations will cease. The man who lives an out-of-door life, who earns his living by his brawn and muscle, is a being who can defy 'bad weather and all ' kinds of hardships. He is quickening the heart, driving the blood through unused channels, hastening the breathing and increas ing the secretions of the skin. He may be able to abuse his stomach, drink or smoke to excess and yet be healthy. His. red blood corpuscles will still keep their shape and color. But an energetic campaign and won out by 70 votes. In the early "80s Mr. Fulton was elected City Attorney, and in 1SSS was a Presiden tial elector, carrying back to Washington the vote of Oregon and casting It for President Harrison. In ISM Mr. Fulton de feated Hon. John, Kopp for State Senator, and" In 1S33 he was again a candidate for the Senate, his opponent being Hon. John H. Smith. The battle which followed will ever be remembered. Mr. Smith Is lm mensely popular, and not until the ballots were counted could any one predict the result. Mr. Fulton was elected, but by a narrow margin. It Is Interesting In this connection to note that Mr. Smith was offered all sorts of Inducements to run against Mr. Fulton In June of last year by opponents ot the Clatsop leader, but ho declined on the ground that he would not stand In Mr. Fulton's way If he had a chance to go to Washington. This act was. characteristic of Mr. Smith, who Is the soul of honor and Intensely loyal. Last year Mr. Fulton's opponent was Dr. II. L. Henderson. Mr. Fulton was President of the Senate at the session of 1593. and again In 1901. The new Senator married Miss Ada Hobson, September S. 1S7S, and has one child, a son. Mrs. Fulton Is a charming matron, popular, gracious and tactful. Sho has been at Salem for several days past. It would be Impossible to describe the scenes which were enacted In Astoria after midnight. Thousands of persons men, women and children were on the streets, and when the first brief message came through announcing the result there went up a shout that was echoed and re echoed from one end of the city to the other. The big fire bell was vociferously rung, and the church bells pealed forth In glad acclaim. Boats whistled, guns were fired and a regular Fourth of Julv celebration ensued. Never before In the history of loyal As toria has so notable a victory been won, and Astoria .celebrated as only Astoria can. Men rushed frantically about. Dem ocrats Joining with Republicans, and one would have thought the entire popula tion Insane. In a frenzy of Joy the wildly enthusias tic Astorians exploded bombs and fire crackers, and at 3 A. M. tho celebration was still on.

It is an undisputed fact that In these days, under the reign of tho third French republic, the stage la one of the great elements for tho production of new fash Ions. Thus, when a play Is put on at the Vaudeville or at tho Gymnase as those are the two theaters In Paris which are almost exclusively devoted to modern com edy there la a general rush of fair Paris lennes to the theater, not only on account of the play, but mostly on account of the gowns exhibited therein. And by theater gowns I do not mean only those that are on the stage, but also those that are among t,he audience In front. French plays never have a long run like In London, for Instance. Fresh productions are continual ly Deing put on. ana many plays that ar a financial success are often taken oft to be replaced by others which are destined to an artistic success only. Tne tneatcr is the National Frpnrh amusement. It replaces sport and outdoor games so popular with the Anglo-Saxons. Everybody goes to the theater regularly, from the richest to the poorest. So that during the first 10 performances of flm neV play one may be always sure of view ing the very latest French fashions in the house. The really smart Parislenne does not care, to see a play after it has run more than about 10 days, and If the real reason of this were sought It would ba found that not only does she believe that the performance "goes off" somewhat after the first dozen performances, but also because after the' first few "perform ances the "chic" people do not go to the play. So that It Is durln'z the first WMlr of a new play. If one be a seeker of new iasnions, mar. one must be seen In an "avantscene" or a Torchestre. At tho present moment thero are two most modem and smart comedies being performed at.the Gymnase and at the Vaudeville. Af the Gymnase the play Is called "Joujou." It Is by the young au the person who does not live thus close to nature, who works and sleeps confined in an ill-ventilated room, is risking his life in commercial habits that are ruin ous to the stomach and heart, such as lunches consumed at racing speed, over work and late hours, and will have fewer red blood cqrpuscles and an increase of white corpuscles. The stomach, heart, and nervous system of Americans are being sorely overtaxed. Our people are overworked and overstrained in schools, offices and workshops, and this is tie growing evil of America. Sleep is often Broken; the ill-used brain will not per mit one to enjoy "Nature's sweet re storer" sleep in bed. The blood is slow, sluggish and filled with white corpuscles. Stagnation of the blood causes headache, constipation, bad colds, coughs and a pale counte nance. RICH RED BLOOD is gained by taking a medicine which is close to. nature's way for making up for the abuse of the body, such as stated above. To gain in fat is nearly always to gain in blood, but to fatten a person does not depend merely on the food eaten; some thing more is wanted in the way of a digestive and tonic to enable the person to prepare and appropriate the food tak en in. That is what the "Golden Med ical Discovery" does. The blood-making glands are assisted in their work, the poisons driven out of the body, the liver thor, Henry Bernstein, who wrote the play last year which made Mme. le Bargy famous. In "Joujou." we see Mme. Jane Granler, that most perfectly dressed .of charming Parislennes: Mile.- Ryter. the typical Ingenue du monde, and Suzanne Despres, who, however, hitherto, has been noted rather for her exceptional talent than for her smart gown3. At the Vaudeville Mme. .Relane that most typical of elegantes Parislennes triumphs in a new modern play by Albert Gulnon and Jeanne Maral, called "Le Joug." She also seizes the opportunity of displaying some exquisite gowns. Mme. Granler's evening gown in "Joujou" Is, though apparently gorgeous in description. most subdued in its effect. There is an unaerdress of oyster-white Liberty satin, which Is almost entlrelv covered. by various embroideries and Incrustations In a curious, Byzantine design. The cen ter of the motifs are hand-painted in pale ume, ana aiierwaras are emDroIdered with silver threads and lncrusted with pearls and the new Iridescent paillettes. These are In various tones of moonlight blue and have the curious shimmering radiance of the wings of the dancing firefly. Here and there, at wide distances, are other Incrustations formed by applique work In silver tissue. emDroIdered and prilletted also. From the bust to the feet hansrs a broad, loose stole of Venetian point. This Is also richly embroidered and in- crusted with motifs In silver tissue, sliver thread. Iridescent paillettes and pearls. The shoft elbow sleeves' are formed of tne same lace ana adorned In tho same manner as the stole. They are finished off with a deep flounce or white chiffon, over which Is placed a long hanging fringe of moonlight-colored beads. Such gorge ous apparel needs no Jewelry or othpr adornment, and the low round decollete nas merely a large La France rose on the icit snouiaer. REFUSED A $10,000 LEGACY Chlcncco Saloon Porter Thln'kn He Is Entitled to n Blinrer Share. Chicago Chronicle. Charles Dlttman. a porter in a saloon on the Haymarket Square, has dprfw tn refuse a legacy of J10.00) which he recent ly received irom nis mother's estate In Germany, for the reason that h hli-e he Is jot receiving his Just share of the money ieit by his relative. He will re turn the certified check to tho American Consul at Hamburg and remain In Amer ica long enough to earn sufficient money 10 visit rus native iana ana make good his claims. Dlttman has been a well-known charac ter In 'the vicinity of the Haymarket sev eral years. Ho Is S3 years old. and left his native town of Dantzlc. Prussia, when a boy. He Is employed in the saloon of Otto F. Nespltal. 142 West Randolph street. On several occasions Dlttman has men tioned that his relatives were quite rich. and two married sisters are now residing near Hamburg. Dlttman does not make any open accusations against his surviv ing relatives, but he Is convinced that his mother, who died several months ago, left a much larger estate than the amount of his legacy would Indicate. He believes that he Is entitled to at least K0.CG0. and this he will strive to obtain should his surmises prove correct. The check received by Dlttman Is .on a Hamburg bank, and made payable at the First National Bank of Chicago. It Is duly certified, and was forwarded by the American Consul at Hamburg. After ex hibiting It to a number of his friends, he announced his determination to return It, and to devote his energies hereafter to working his way back to his native land.

Instead of being only -rarely Inflicted and far too lenient, the precautions against railway accidents would be Increased and the number ot fatalities proportionately decreased." No appliance and no personal vigilance would be spared to avert a disaster. No expense would be too great to prevent a wreck. If the consequences of a wreck were made sufficiently expensive. A Wild Dock Preserve. Philadelphia North American. The Elslnboro Gun Club, composed of Philadelphia sporting men. has purchased the Franklin Tyler farm, in Elslnboro Township. New Jersey, and 'will convert It Into a 'preserve for wild ducks. There aro 4C0 acres In the farm, all the land ex maae active; that force-pump of tha body the heart, is stimulated to healthy action, and every nerve of the body is fed on rich red blood blood with an abundance of red corpuscles. Languid, tired feelings, nervousness and irritabil ity, lack oi appetite and sleep vanish quickly after using this nourishing tonic and blood purifier. HINTS FOR RIGHT LIVING. One man who has done more to teach the American people how to care for their bodies than almost any other, is Dr. R, V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., the Author of the " Common Sense Medical Adviser.". He says : " It is not the quan tity of the food eaten which produces strength and health (for some people can keep strong on a very meagre diet), but it is how much food is absorbed and assimilated by the blood and carried to nourish every organ of the body. It is, therefore, vitally necessary for the body that the stomach be in a healthy state. If disease of the stomach, or what is called "stomach trouble," prevents prop er nutrition then the heart, liver, lungs, and kidneys do not get proper food they are not fed on rich red blood, and in consequence, begin to show signs of distress. Outwardly these signs may be pimples and eruptions on skin, pale face, sleepless nights, tired languid feelings, or, by reason of the nerves not being fed on puie blood, they become starved and we receive a warning in the pain we call neuralgia. Rheumatism, too, is a blood disease. After years of practice and study Dr. Pierce found that one of his prescriptions made from the extracts of several plants, invariably brought about a tone to the system, an increase in the red corpuscles of the blood by helping the process of absorption of the healthy elements in the food, casting out the poisons from the blood. This Alterative Extract he named "Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery." Cures others, will aire you. We da not ask you to believe it on our asser tion, for the proprietors and manufactur ers of this "Medical Discovery" offer $3,ooo reward for any case where they cannot show the original signature of the individual volunteering the testimo nial below, and also of the writers of every testimonial among the thousands which they are constantly publishing, thus proving their genuineness. "This is to certify that I have used Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and think it's the grandest medicine in the world," writes Mrs. V. M. Younfr, of Weir, West Va. "I took down sick six months ago and called in our physician and he gave me medicine but I grew wors. He said I had dyspepsia in its worst form. I decided to try your medicine and began to improve. I used five bottles, two of the 'Golden Medical Discovery' and three of 'Favorite Prescription.' and now I am do ing tnv own housework. A number of my lady friends also are using Dr. Pierce's medicine and they recommend it highly. May God bless and prosper you in your grand work."
