"."Washington, March B,"- Repfeienta ' tlVa Joseph E. Ransdell, of Louisiana, a member of the rivers and harbors com mittee of , the house and president of . ttte National Rivera and Harbors con gress, la enthusiastic over the passage . of JlbA JcLvetnl j!Wborpj?roprjtlon biu. '-:kis.:;-;,ysr.: ' - . ? In speaking f the merits of the bill ' . and the careful, painstaking prepara tion "given W the measure by both the - house and senate committees dealing with - waterways, Mtv Hanadeii saldi bUJs in three successive- t years. . The emergency ' bm,, as It? waa called, of carried about H8.000.000. The bill ofUlO carried some $58,000,000; while the present bill provides for something 1 ovr $14,000,000. so that there has been legislation affecting our great high ways and our harbors ' for- three con secutive - years. This certainly estab lishes the precedent for an annual bill hereafter. This feature of the bill Is . most generally praised and: I have no doubt It wlU be followed by successive congresses aa a well-settled policy, f--jaV.i rs.r aivas W&i A-waga. ,--'--.':-- Another feature, which is gratify lng to the friend! of a liberal water way policy. Is, that the present bill, to aether with that of 110, which, carry ing approximately $90,000,000." If ex pended promptly would give an aver age of $46,000,000 a year close ap proach t the $50,000,000 per. annum which was adopted as the slogan of the " Katlonal Rivers and Harbors congress " several "years" ago.-----'--, ; "The annual feature : and the , in creased amount have been urged with . great persistency -and ; the ; aocomp- . lishment of one and the near approach to the other are deeply gratifying to all friends of Improved waterways. "If I were asked to name the dis tinguishing characteristic: of the two bills passed by the slxty-firat congress, I should say that they are essentially river bills, as contra-distlngulshed from the harbor bills which have been enact ed into law so frequently in the past . Indeed such liberal provision was made for most of the harbors on the Great Lakes, the Pacific, the-Gulf and the Atlantic, by former . congresses... that their demands were small and the pres ent congress could well afford to be liberal in its treatment of rivers. , JTo Biver Competition, "'I wish r It clearly - understood that there Is not the slightest antagonism to harbor Improvement, for very harbor Is a railroad terminal. The greater the facilities thereat for handling freight In large vessels,' the cheaper the rates thereon, a subject in " which all freight movers are Intensely interested. But while we have cheapened freights by deepening harbors, we have done prao tically nothing to establish foroeful , competition on rivers and everyone con 1 cedes that a great east and west water course, such for exampla as the com bined Ohio and Missouri rivers, and a north and south route, as the Mississ ippi from 8t Paul to tha Quit would. if properly - improved ' and . utilised, be wonderfully beneficial in , solving the problem of freight charges. I use these streams as an illustration merely and there are many others in practical ly every part of the union which would, in proportion to costs of improvement, be dually helpful. ' z "Another and most important Idea, consistently followed by this con' .,' gross, in .' its river legislation, is tha -adoption of a definite plan on great ' projects and fixing a speclflo period in . which to complete them. To uius trate: . The river and harbor act of ' 1S07, adopted a plan to improve the Mississippi from St Paul to the mouth of the MisseuH at a cost of-$20,000,000; jit provided $500,000 in cash and author ised, contracts for $1,600,000 additional with the proviso that not exceeding $50,000 should be spent In any on year. This would mean 40 years in which to - complete tha project 't,v "v Definite Tims Tlxed. . "The act of 1810 mad suitable pro vision for prosecuting tha project above spoken- of and specifically stated that flt was 'with a view of completing said . Improvements , within a . period of . 12 years thereby fixing definite, rea sonable time for completion. Similar periods were also fixed for several oth . er great projects that have been, under .. way for many years, without any pros- - pect of completion within the lifetime of any member of the present congress. .''In view Of the Increased appropria " tion, and in order-to- expedite future works, the Mil gives an Increase- of . sixty members to the engineer corps of - the army and provides for the admls , elon of a certain number of civilians for duty on river and harbor improve ments. This is a very decided advance and very beneficial results are expected from It. , .."The bill as a whole is clean-cut and -free from objection as any of the ; great appropriation bills I have ever known in my IS years of congressional - life."' . . ? f EAST SIDE IS EARLY "-h East side plans for Rose Festival fee 's tu res have become so extensive that - unless the west side awakens the festl- vai- will4 seem-to have headquarteraX . across the river.

BanFrancIscor-March-6. Will-Duncan Elliott, the dashing cavalry officer and one time society man of the inner Newport set, remarrying the beaittful Sally Hargous-Elliott-Kane Is a ques tion which Is sorely vexing the very centers of local society and one that may be answered when Lieutenant Elli ott - arrives here en f6ute tths Phil- Ippines. .- He' Is booked to sail on the transport Logan with the Eighth cavalry. Dun can Elliott society man, member of the most exclusive New York clubs and eotlllloit leader in Manhattan's- - May fair,, won the . heart and hand of Sally Hargous. the most famous beauty who ever came from New Orleans. . ..Billots Tires of Ties. ' Everything was lovely , for several years, and two boys were born to the happy couple. Then Elliott tired of domesticity, and his wife obtained a divorce, r Then the war with Spain broke out and Elliott enlisted. His natural apti tude for the profesalon of a soldier was soon noticed by his superior officers, and after the war he was given a com mission. Later, having -Successfully passed the examinations, he was trans ferred from the Infantry to the cav alry in th Eighth regiment, of which he is senior first lieutenant, i Meanwhile his wife married Wood bury Kane, an elderly bachelor, also one of New York society's favorites. One year, after their marriage, in 1907, he died.' Last . summer Elliott went to Newport, where his. former wife was staying. He clung close in the wake of Mrs. Kane. Gossip had , tha two re-engaged many times,' but nothing was officially announced. Now that Elliott has been ordered to the Phllllpnines, Insistent rumor again has it that Mrs. Kane will travel with her two sons via Sues and India to Manila, and that the happy consum mation of a wedding will be reached In the tropic islands.

'iiiisxsxa Five Minutes Sometimes Makes A Big Difference If Ton Are Suffering the Tortures of ; Indigestion and Hare to Walt Un til Someone Bong to the Drug Store for a Box of Stnart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Tree Trial Vackage. 'The instant relief afforded poor over burdened stomachs by the use of a Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet should be a reason for constantly keeping a box on hand at home and at the office as well. ' Tfce Stomach WelcaaM Quick Relief. A Stuart's Tablet not only aids diges tion but it actually does the digesting Itself. In other words it furnishes ex actly the same elements for the diges tion of food as the natural Juices of the stomach. The stomach, therefore, is not called upon to do any of the work except to churn the Juices furnished by the tablet and then push the digested food along Into the intestines,, where it will be still further digested and the strength taken up by the blood to be carried to the muscles and nerves of the body. So by taking a Stuart's Dyspepsia Talbet after a meal you give the stom ach the rest it needs In which to mend Itself and prow well again. And you absolutely prevent the souring of anyl food, the formation- of any poisonous gases, belching, foul breath or consti pation. Stuart a Dyspepsia Tablets have done more for humanity and have caused more rejoicing that any other one agen cy that can be named. Every druggist everywhere sells and personally recommends Stuart's Dyspep sia Tablets.
