Tor the first time in history an in
ternational conference in the inter
est of millions of men who live on

to-day is the object of this unique
congress. The world-wide ways of
the crimp, the boarding master, the
shipping agent and ship owner will
be discussed by men who have made
a life long study throughout the
giooe 01 inese vuai elements in me
life "of jack-ashore. The treatment of
jackies in the navies of the nations
as well as the merchant marine will
come up for consideration. Efforts
will also be made to perfect the or-
ganization by which the American
Seamen's Friend Society is aiming
: to keep in touch with the shifting bo
dy of sailors through their forty-five
stations all over the world.

A Big Sensation in Hats
Tucker, who has succeeded a long
line of stricken workers at the branch
in Rio Janiero, which for seventy
four years the society has battled to
maintain against the ravages of yel
low fever, is to report on conditions
surrounding juckashore in South
America today. Another experienced
worker in Argentine has begun the
long voyage from Buenos Ayres. Re
ports will also be recived from the
other South American stations of the
society at Valparaiso, Montevideo
and Rosario.
New Orleans, Gloucester, Seattle,
Norfolk, Galveston, Newport News,
Pensacola, Boston, Charleston, Wil
mington and Portland, Oregon, wil
send representatives to tell this con
gress of workers their ideas of look
ing out for the welfare of the sailor,
The experiments of the Society's
agents in the ports of every seaboard
state in this country to provide free
shipping bureaus, suitable accomoda
tions, entertainment, banking and out
fitting facilities for the seamen on
the shores of the United States will
all be discussed and new suggestions
offered along these lines.
"As we were the first to place and
maintain stations for the benefit of
the world's sailors outside of our
country, we feel glad of the oppor
tunity to call this first international
conference to help the seamen of the
orld: said G. McPherson Hunter,
secretary of the American Seamen's
Friend Society at its headquarters,
"6 Wall Street, to-day. "No class of
men among all the peoples of the
earth stands to-day more sadly in
need of speedy measures to brighten
and better their lot in life. We ear
nestly hope that our gathering next
month will result in a world wide
benefit to the sailor."
Scales Condemned.
Do you know that many of the
barrel scales with the figures in
small, fine type, have been ousted out
of many states? Smith uses great
large scales; you can read the prices
across the street. They're honest,

DODGING THE SPEAKER.
On of the Firtt Cases of Filibustering
In Congress.
One' of the tlrat Instances of filibus
tering on tim-d In 1805 Just after the
Impeachment trial cf the Hon. Samuel
Chase, one of the associate Justices of
the supreme eourt. A quarrel arose
over the payment of witnesses. The
bouse of representatives would pass no
bill which provided for the payment
of those summoned by Chase. The
senate would pons no bill which did
not, and a eonfurenro followed. Each
refused to yield, and the bill was lout.
John Randolph then attempted in
the closing hours of the session to
have the witnesses for the managers
of the trial paid out of the contingent
fund of the house. Rut tho Federalists
were ready. They hurried from the
room, and when the vote was taken
the speaker announced no quorum.
Members were thereupon summoned
from the lobby aad committee rooms.
Hardly were they In their seats when
a message from the president was an
nounced, and while the clork was read
ing It the Federalists again left the
room, so that when tho resolution was
a second time called up there was
again no quorum. Ouce more the ser
geant at arms went Into the lobby,
and once more the members came In.
But an enrolled bill was reported, and
while the speaker was signing It the
Federalists a third time slipped out.
The announcement of no quorum which
followed was greeted with shouts of
laughter. Randolph In a great passion
desiated, nnd late on the evening of
Sunday. March 3. 1805. the Eighth
congress ended.-Baltlmore American.

SCIENCE AND TEARS.
Weapon of the Haroine Coolly Ana
lyzed by French Chemist.
One does not care to have one's
tears analyzed like a patent food or
medicine and to associate them with
chemical substances, but we are noth
ing if not practical nowadays, and ev
ery shred of romance, poetry and senti
ment Is remorselessly wrenched from
us for scientific purposes.
A French Journal devoted to matters
of this kind has been telling tis not
only of what tears are composed, but
exactly the effect that Is produced on
brain and body when we shed them.
So henceforth when we read that the
heroine's "beautiful eyes were suffused
with tears." that "In a moment she
v.-ns weeping passionately on his shoul
der." we shall know that by o kind of
ehower bath jirrnngwnent n mixture of
albuminoid, water and chemical sub
stances was let loose at the back of her
rkull. thtiH dulling tho nerve centers
nnd really givIriK her relief.
However. It does not sound romantic,
nnd more man Is likely to imagine that
the fair one Is really suffering doubly
when all this h."ojia. flntUwoman.
