Ex-President Reaches Edge Hunting Grounds. of Every Protpect of Abundance of Big Game—Train Reached Kapati, 276 Mile» From Morobata, Yeiterday Af- ternoon. Kapati. British East Africa April 23 —Theodore Roosevelt has reached the hunting grounds and to-night he will spend his first night in Africa under canvass. A big camp has been established near the railroad station in Kapati for the Roesevelt expedition. Last tiiirht lions were prowling about in the vicinity where the tents now are. The country is green Owing to the re- cent rains and there is every prospect of pooi sport. The commoner varieties of Kanie are plentiful and the huntsmen will lose no time in getting started _on their shooting trips. _ The special train bearing the Roose- velt party from Mombasa arrived at Kapatfat 1:30 o'clock this afternoon. Only the members* of the Roosevelt party got off at Kapati plains. F., J. Jackson, acting governor of the protec- torate, and the other officials who came up from Mombasa continued to Nairobi. The camp established for the former President of the United States is elab- orate. The caravan will haye a total of 260 followers. There are 13 tents for the Europeans and their horses and 60 tents for the porters. An American flag is riving over the tent to be occu- pied by Mr. Roosevelt. All the native porters of the expedi- tion were lined up on the platform when the Roosevelt special drew in and r as Mr. Roosevelt stepped down from the train they shouted a salute in his. honor. In reply Mr. Roosevelt raised his hat. Mr. Roosevelt was welcomed at the station by Sir Alfred Peace, who will be his host at his ranch on the Athi river. Mr. Roosevelt is dressed to-day in a khaki suit and white helmet. The weather is bright and warm . Mr. Roosevelt was on the'cowcatcher of the engine when the train drew in, having occupied that position for the 79 miles between Makindu^and Kpati Plains. He said he was intensely in- terested in the country and expressed his gratitude and delight at the hospi- tality shown him by Acting Governor and Mrs. Jackson. The caravan awaiting the Roosevelt party includes four head men, nine gun-bearers, twelve armed guards, 200 porters and nine horse. SULTAN IS PRISONER. CHANGES THE GAME LAWS. \ AUTOMOBIUSTS LOOK OUT.

April 26.—New York city Adirondack camp owners will be inter-; ested in amendments to the forest, fish ' and game law embodied in the bill, in-! troduced in the Senate by Senator Jo- j tham P.

The following bill was recently intro- duced in the Assembly: 1. On discovering an approaching team, the automobilist must stop off- side and cover his machine with a tar- paulin painted to corresspond with the scenery. 2.

Constantinople, April 25.—The Yildiz garrison surrendered to-day to the con- stitutionalist forces. The commander of three battalions began sending in Pasha last night and the whole of the troops protecting the palace gave their formal and unconditional surrender shortly after dawn. Niazi Bey, who was called the hero of the July revolu- tion, is now in command of the garri- son. Sultan Abdul Hamid has been permitted to remain within the walls of the Yildiz, where, yesterday, in company with his ministers, he waited for the outcome of the struggle between his loyal troops and the army of investment, each hour bringing to him word of a fresh disaster. It has been stated, since victory rested with the constitutionalists that the sultan himsslf gave orders to his men not to resist. Whether or not this is true, it can safely be said of the troops within the capital that they put up a stubborn resistance at all points and the losses on both sides are exceedingly heavy, for the length of time the en- gagement continued. A representative of the commander- ~ in-chief of-the constitutionalists forces is authority for saying; the sultan will be dealt with by Parliament and that there will be an adequate inquiry into the sovereign's alleged complicity in the recent mutiny. Up to the present the ministry has not been dissolved, but Constantinople and a number of other places have been declared in a 9tate of seige. Martial law prevails, and while there is some uneasiness among the people, order has been maintained with a strict hand. The last garrison to surrender was the Selimieh artillery barracks, in Scutari,opposite Stamboul. Four thous- and men stationed there with a hun- dred guns threatened to blow the city in ruins, but Gen. Schefket to-day or- dered up 60 big guns and several Jit- ter ies of machine guns to a position which command the barracks and the cruiser Medijieh steamed out of range of the field pieces and prepared for action. The commander of the barracks thereupon submitted and the artillery- men will be marched out as the troops of the other garrison already haye been treated and made temporary prisoners without arms, to await transfer to outlaying districts. preserve counties are required to or- nize and maintain an efficient fire par- trol at their own expense. If they fail to do so satisfactorily the Commis- sioner has the right to perfect such system and charge it to the railroads. Authority is given the Commissioner to divide the foreBt preserve counties into convenient fire district sand these shall be under the supervision of the super- intendents of fire. The Commissioner may enforce rules and regulations for the organization of locaTfire companies and engage men to fight forest fires. He may cause trails to be cut, ditches to be dug, and barracks to be erected in the forest preserve counties as may be necessary* to enable all persons quickly to reach the location of fires. The superintendents are authorized to hire patrolmen, who shall be sup- plied with necessary tents ortJamps, cooking utensils and fire fighting im- plements, and their duty will be* to watch out-fof the start of forest fires. The patrolmen are to receive a salary at the rate of $75 a month. Incase they become derelict their pay is chop- ped in half instead of their being dis- charged. Any person who refuses to assist in fighting a forest fire when called upon to do so will be subject to a fine of $20. Whenever by reason of drought or other cause it shall be dangerous to the forests of the State for any person to enter any portion of the lands within the forest preserve counties of the State for the purpose of either camp- ing or fishing the Governor is author- ized to forbid by proclamation any such invasion during a period of time deem- ed necessary.

Automobiles must be seasonably painted—that is, so they will merge with the pastoral ensemble, and not be startling. They muat be green in spring, golden in summer, red in au- tumn and white in winter. 6 Automobiles running on the coun- try roads at night must send up a red rocket every mile, and wait ten minutes for the road to clear. They may then proceed carefully, blowing their horns and shooting Roman candles. 7. In case a horse will not pass an automobile, notwithstanding the scenic tarpaulin, the automobilist will take the machine apart as rapidly as possi- ble and conceal the parts in the grass. 8. In case an automobile approaches a farmer's house when the roads are dusty, it will slow down to one mile an hour, and the chauffeur will lay the dust in front of the house with a hand sprinkler worked over the dashboard. . 9.

Albany, April 27.—The question as to whether the cost of maintaining quar- antine against rabies in several sec- tions of the state and against the foot and mouth disease in certain of* the western counties during the closing months of last year is a state or county charge, probably will be presented to the court of claims. The quarantine against the foot and mouth disease in Erie county cost about $7,000.

And this gift, cherished for its beauty and intrinsic value, will still wore be cherished for the spirit which prompts the gift, that of friendship. \ThereJB a wealth not measured by the days; that lives beyond the years and that is the wealth of friendship.

Twenty-Eight Years Member of Upper House—• Ardent Silver Advocate, Au- thor of Phrase, M Crime of 73.\ Washington, Apr. 27.—Former United States Senator William M. Stewart, of Nevada, died in the Georgetown Hospi- tal here Friday following an operation. Mr. Stewart was 82 years old and had been a familiar figure in Washington during the last half a century. For 28 years altogether he represented Ne- vada in the Senate, a'lapse between 1875 and 1887 intervening to prevent a continuous service record; from 1865 to 1905. He made many notable speeches in the Senate in advocacy of silver and hia characterization of the demonetiza- tion of the white metal as the crime of '73\ \ is a marker in political history. After his retirement from Congress he divided his time between Washington, his farm in nearby Virginia, and the west, where he-had _Yaried-mininjr_irt. tersts. He was a native of New York and went west in the early days of the California gold discovery and wielded the pick and shovel. Except for the first campaign of Bryan in 1896 when the silver issue was most prominent, Mr. Stewart was a Republican but he often voted contrary to the wishes of the party caucus. way improvement funds are not includ- ed in.the total. The senate bill total is about $1,600,000 more than the total of the appropriation bill last year. In the senate committee an additional sum of $1,223,271 was given for the state commission in lunacy, making the total appropriation $4,968,136. .The extra amount is given to increase the accom- modations of the hospitals. The sen- ate bill takes $58,876 out of thiTaniount allowed in the assembly bill for the public service commission of the second district. The cuts include amounts de- ducted permitted by doing away with four positions which were made vacant during the year for one reason or an- other. Provision for steam railroad in- spection is also cut off in the senate bill. ' • The department of agriculture fares well in the appropriation bill passed by the senate, $135,212 having been added to the appropriation allowed for it in the assembly bill. The total for this department is $730,040. The attorney general's office is given an addition of $24j500 in the senate bill, making the \total appropriation for the state's legal department $113,500. In the supply bill as it was Bent to the senate $75,363 is also allowed for the attorney general's department. The total appropriations in the aup- ply bill as it passed the assembly am- ounted to $4,525,879, and of this sum $2,478,742 were reappropriations. The forest, fish and game amend- ments reported to-day by the finance committee of the senate carries an in- crease of the state commissioner's sal- ary from $5,000 to. $6,000 a year and provides for an increase of five in the number of game protectors, making eighty-five in all. The bilh also makes appropriations to meet the added ex- pense of the new fire patrol regulations in the forest preserve. The fees re- ceived by the forest, fish and game de- partment meet the greater part of the expense of that department. The decision of the court was served upon Commissoiner Pearson of the State Agricultural department, who has , been advised by Attorney General. , , I O'Malley not to recognize it, the pro- i years, mine has been i ceeding being an ex parte one and that !

Bills reported and passed were: —The Assmbiy also passed the Platt bill prohibiting, the importation into New York of domestic animals suffer- ing from infectious diseases. —The Assembly passed Senator Hill's bill extending the probation system more generally in counties outside of first and second class cities. —The Assembly rules committee re- ported the Allds bill amending the motor vehicle law so as to provide for registration fees for autmoobiles and for the abolition of speed laws. retained the old and added thereto some new National enterprises. \Among the latter, one which makes possible the compliment you pay me.the establishment of Pine Camp.

Government Defrauded Ten Years. Camp, the first one of the great ma- neuvre camps of the army to be per- manently established by the United States government. This, I believe, is the only district in the republic that has within its borders two historic military posts and a separate and one of the eight great maneuvre camps to be established for the United States army. \We all,as is right, take pride in this! and yet, like the great people of which we area part,we love peace while fear not war. We would welcome the day when war would be nojuore. We main- and main- maneuvre camps, but only to protect American interests, commerce and flag, wherever those interests may be, that commerce may float or that flag may wave, and beyond that to stand peace sentinels for a world. It is in keeping with this policy of national defense and with the spirit which hopes for abiding peace that we welcome the establishment of Pine Camp. And where could it be bet- ter located than here in historic North- ern New Yrok? Here is evidencwLthe triumphs, both of peace and of war.

Emil A. Meury, pastor of the Second Reformed Church in Central avenue, Jersey City, announced in an inertview that he is in favor of Sundaylovely. base ball, a subject on which the Jersey fans are greatly stirred up. \Man's inhumanity to. man,\ said Dr. Meury, \has never been better illustrated than by the recent and mis- guided action of certain ministrs in seeking to deprive people of this city frOm enjoying base ball. The game is essentially the sport and enjoyment of the plain people. It is a healthy and clean, and honest amusement. Relig- ion is not a system of dreary ethics calculated to save the faithful from punishment hereafter, but should rather be regarded as a code of inspired morals for the purpose of making better and happier both men and women in this Uf6,^ ~Si.S-d*>y*» tho Averago man rrorko long hours to sustain life in himselfhad and those he loves, and on the seventh his duty is to worship God and take the healthy recreation which his tired body and weary soul need. The sunshine is for tis all and the brightness of life should cast its rays into every soul, and when the workman seeks his recre- ation all the church should ask is that it be honest and clean amusement which injures in no way the purity of a Christian life. \Tbe commandment to 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy,' can, when strictly interpreted, mean only that God should be worshipped on that day and His works studied, and it does not mean that the day should be spent i exclusively in religious work. Healthy ' recreation and amusement should be construed just as proper an observance of the day during hours when there are no church services as any form of re- ligious observance. _J: \The law prohibiting Sunday base ball has. to my mind, long ago taken its place among the BO-called 'blue laws' j which are fast becoming dead and un-' enforceable.\ There are very few preachers who will agree with the above opinions of Rev. Mr. Meury. Sunday base ball playing is not conducive to a proper observance of the Sabbath, not that the fact of tossing the balls is sinful, but the in- fluence is bad to young boys. They will become better and more useful mem- bers of society.. if they attend Sunday school and church. All thei lessons of the past are valuable teachers in this respect.—Ed. with the eagerness of .a young lover to meet Dora on her invitation and found a fat, florid, silly and ordinary English woman, the reminiscences of a lifetime were shattered and happiness and hope were gone.
