Colonel Roosevelt attacked the Dem

"bosses" had been made In that party
during the primary campaign and that
a Democratic victory would mean "the
enthronement of the bosses, each in his
own state."

He referred to political conditions
In Woodrow Wilson's State of . New
Jersey, and to the Governors stand
against ex-Senator Smith, saying that
the Democratic party in New Jersey
is struggling apparently to get rid of
one 'boss. Mr. Smith, and apparently
has gone happily to bed with another.
Mr. Nugent."
. "We disposed of unpleasant bedfel
lows," he added, "before we went to
bed."
, In both Seattle and Tacoma Colonel
Roosevelt was welcomed enthusiastic
ally by crowds of large size. The
streets of- Seattle were decorated with
flags and bunting, and lined with peo
ple. He spoke first at a mass meeUng
In a skating rink, and later at the
Progressive state convention.
Blnejurkets Sin to T. R.
A detachment of bluejackets from
the battleship Oregon followed the
Colonel most of the day. A hundred
of them who had obtained shore leave
marched through the streets singing
'.'Everybody's Roosevelt now." They
stormed the Colonel's hotel and sang
for half an hour. Interspersing their
serenades with shouts of "We want
Toddy."
'Colonel Roosevelt's secretary sent
word that the Colonel would not have
time to see them, but the Colonel him
self heard of it and sent word that he
would. He came down and shook hands
all around, and the bluejackets trooped
out. Nothing more was seen of them
until Colonel Roosevelt was well un
der way wit's his speech at the con

Use in Five Operations Shows It
Eliminates Struggle and Xousea
as When Ether Is I'sed.
NEW YORK, Sept. 10. (Special.)
A new anesthetic with which the pa
tient is lulled quietly to sleep by tho
odor of oranges instead of with a
struggle that attends the use of ether,
has been discovered. It has been used
in five operations at the Brooklyn
Naval Hospital and with such startling
success that J. C. Byrnes predicts Its
adoption for both the Navy and Army.
The new anesthetic is based on the
ndnr tif essence of oranges, which is
ten times stronger than the odor of
ether. The patient smells this vapor
ized essence, which is then gradually
mixed with ether, the change from
one to the other being Impercept
ible. As demonstrated In Ave opera
tions at the hospital and confirmed by
upwards of 200 experiments performed
by Its discoverers, the new process has
the advantage of being much safer
than the use of ether alone, taking
only half the time to administer, be
ing much less costly, doing away en
tirely with the patient's struggles and
being followed by a quick recovery and
no sense of nausea.

BERLIN. Sept. 10. In consequence
of the general clamor against tne nign
Drlce of meat the government, accord

Short Waistcoats of SO Tears Ago
and Other Decorative Styles
for Men Popular.
LONDON, Sept. 10. (Special.)
Whether or not to cultivate curled
side-whiskers is the absorbing problem
for Mayfalr dudes today. It is no
longer necessary to struggle with a
feeble moustache, but to be in the fore
front of the new fashion, carefully
trained side "fins" are essential to the
man who would be in complete trim
for an afternoon stroll through the
Burlington Arcade.
The vogue has its origin In the char
acters playing in "Milestones," Arnold
Bennett's successful play at the
Royal Theater. It is a revival of
the fashion of the early half of the last
century, when masculine modes were
more decorative than the utilitarian
styles of the last 50 years.
But there are those who plead for a
revival of greateV variety to relieve
the drab monotony of male attire. Not
only do they wear side whiskers, but
also the strapped trousers and silk
neckwear of the same period, and now
the man who studies his clothes has
his collars cut low and wears the silk
"stock," - that goes twice round the
throat and then is tied In a knot.
The old style of trousers in favor
among the best dressers have no out
standing crease down the front and
back They are fastened high and
tlghtlv round the. waist and strapped
under the feet. A short waistcoat adds
to the slim appearance that the 'dude
of today longs for as the Piccadilly
ideal.
BURNED WIRE HOLDS DRAW
New Bridge Is Closed to Traffic
When . Fuse Blows Out. .
Through the blowing out of a fuse
and the burning of a wire the Harri-
man bridge was closed to all traffic
for nearly two hours yesterday after
noon.; The accident happened shortly
after 2 o'clock as the upper draw was
being raised and It had reached an
elevation cf 10 or 12 feet, when the
fuse blew out.
It was necessary for a call to be
sent to the Portland Railway, Light &
Power Company for wire and that
added to the delay. Today workmen
will Install a second wire, so that in
the event of a repetition of the acci
dent the . auxiliary wire can be
switched in. Streetcars were diverted
to the -Burnside-street bridge during
the closed period and as vehicle traffic
also found that avenue, the crossing
was somewhat congested.
SCIENCE VIES WITH YEGGS
New Steel Discovered Which With-
: stands All Attacks of Burglars.
NEW. TORK. Sept. 10. The day of
the scientific safe burglar is about over.
A kind of steel that cannot be drilled,
exploded or cut by the oxyhydroven
flamo has been' discovered by German
chemists, according to Professor Duis
berg, one of the chief foreign delegates
to the International Chemists Congress
here, and it is a question of only a
short time before the yeggman will
have to turn to new fields.
Dr. Dulsberg brought with him two
specimens of steel. One was of the
ordinary kind and had been cut in five
and a half minutes by the oxyhydrogen
flame and in six minutes by the oxy
acetylene flame. The second specimen
was of the new alloy which had with
stood the heat of both the oxyhydrogen
and oxyacetylene flames for one and a
half hours.

AGUA PRIETA HAS SCARE
Defending Miachlne Gun Becomes
Jammed, With Only Men Who Can
Repair It Gone Colonel and
Major Are Arrested. ,
DOUGLAS. Ariz., Sept 10. With his
400 followers living on the fat of the
land. Inez Salazar, the rebel general,
is moving slowly to the west along
the international boundary. He is
closely watched by United States Cav
alrymen, who are following the rebel
movements from the American side of
the line. .
Salazar and his men remain at a
ranch until all the choicest cattle and
provisions are consumed and then move
a few miles west. They are slowly
nearlng Augua Prieta, the Mexican
town just opposite Douglas.
Garrlaoa May Be StreaSTtbened.
At last reports to United States Army
officers ' here, Salazar's command
camped today on the Mescal ranch, 25
miles east of Augua Prieta. where the
federal garrison was strengthened, to
day by the arrival of 100 'soldiers
from the south. This makes the garri
son number 300 men, but Salazar's
force may be strengthened at any time
by the many groups of from 200 to
400 rebels operating in the vicinity.
The town of Augua Prieta and its
sister city of Douglas, were fright
ened today- by the approach of what
appeared to be the rebel cavalry. The
garrison of the Mexican town was
called out and Americans of Douglas
perched on housetops, focusing antique
field glasses, but the cloud of dust had
been kicked up by a herd of cattle.
Gun Jammed Beyond Itepalr.
The Incident lacked humor to the
commander of the small federal gar
rison at Augua Prieta, for in the ex
citement one of the .two machine guns
defending the town, became jammed
beyond hope of immediate repair, when
shells were thrown into the magazine
preparatory to resisting an attack. The
only gunner capable of repairing the
piece is in Douglas. He Is ah Amer
ican filibuster, formerly with the
rebels, and will not venture to the
Mexican side.
Rebel Officers Arreated.
A rebel colonel and a nfajor wandered
over the International line near Nasco,
Ariz., and were arrested by two United
States Customs line riders. The rebel
officers were brought here today and
lodged in Jail on a charge of smuggling
Into the United States horses they
rode.
Local authorities are intent on mak
ing no distinction between rebels and
federals, lest 111 feeling should be caused
and affect the safety of Americans
in Mexico. A federal captain of the
Agua Prieta garrison Is under heavy
bond here, having been charged with
smuggling two : rifles In an automo
