WertTTnprovlded With ' , Binoculara, . . -t. Washington, April. -Like the misting horseltiea nail that coat a monarch his kingdom, the failure to provide binocu lars o spyglasses for the-lookout on the Titanic was one contributing cause of that ship's loss and with it the loss of more than 1.608 lives. : ? T'-' The witnesses before the Senate In vestigating Committee" h ad agreed in this. They were Frederick Fleet, a lookout on ths liner an I Major Arthur Godfrey Peuchen, Canadian manufac turer and yachtman, who wu among lhs rescued passengers. : Fleet acknowledged that if he had been aided in his observation by a good glass he probably could ' have spied the berg into which the ship crashed in time to have warned the bridge to avoid it. ' Major Peuchen also testified that , the presence of iceberg might have been de tected n time to escape the eollisioo had ths lookout men been so equipped. It was made to appear that the blame for beiftg.-wUhout glasses did not rest with the lookout men.' Fleet said he had askt d for them at Southampton and was told there were none for them. One glass in a pinch would have served in the crow's nest vi?:, Major Peuchen criticised in strong terms the lack of experienced sailors on board the Titanic, He aaid that when the call to quarters was souoded not enough of the erew responded to under take the work required in lowering and filling the boats. Furthermore, he said no drills had been held from the time the ship left Southampton, although it was customary to hold auch drills every Sunday. Herbert J. Pitman, third officer of the Titanic, told of his failure to torn back the life boat in which he and his passengers were idly drifting to attempt the rescue of the others when the Ti lanic wwiiWewnt' Sbuddiiing at the re collection, he aaid the cries for help made "one long continuous moan.". The passengers insisted that to go back to aid would mean their destruction, he said, so that after starting in the direc tion of the cries he rescinded bis orders and waited for the dawn. Twice he begged to be spared a recital of the facta, but Senator Smith pretaed them. Metal and Seed. White Lead and White Zinc made from the Metals Lead and Zinc -art pigments.

Asheville. April 24th, -Aa interest ing case is to be heard in the police court today and one in which tb results may ba.ve far reaching effect, since any decision will likely be in the nature of precedent ; The case concerns the right of the rooster to crow, tbe com plainant being Mrs. Carrie Carr Mitch ell, who conducts a fashionable board ing bouse at Na 1 Aston place, and who contends that tbe rooster of E. C Dewey, who lives nearby, crows at all houri of tbe night without the least re gard to th fact that she and ber guests may desire to sleep. It is said that Mrs. Mitchell and her guests have been greatly disturbed by the crowing of th rooster for some time. and that ah went to the owner td asked that he use his influence to g et the. rooster to desist at least at such hours as. she and her guests would like to reppM. It is reported that the own ar of the rooster replied that be had no influence over tbe rooster, at least in this jitejpact; that in the aecond place ths rooster had a right to crow, it be ing a prerogartiv determined by cus tom, time out of mind; that in the third place the rooster didn't erow! and if be did. It didn't bother anvbody. It vras. after this that Mrs. Mitchell bad a warrant iasuetffor Mr. Dewey, in which he ia charged with maintain ing, carrying on, permitting andcaus jng a public nuisance by allowing his rooster to crow without due regard to the house, and contrary to the peace of (he people neat by and lha digni'y of the state, or words to that effect There are to be some rather promi nent people as wilneaiea.

Heretofore there has been a popular opinion tbat a rooster has a rtsnt to crow, nut wneuer it. is Da-ca o any constitutional right or not bas not been determined as far as can be learned In legal circles. .

Roosevelt He declared that the ' latter bad been going about the country for three weeka flaying him (Campbell) before th American public; that he had likened Colonel Roosevelt's call of judicial de cision to '.'an appeal to' the bleachers from the decision of the umpire," Colonel Roosevelt haa been holding himself up to the people as tbe paragon of political virtue,", said Mr. Camp bell. He has assailed every man wbo ventured to diaagree with him on any question, ' He brands every ban as an infamous scoundrel . whom - he cannot lash into agreeing with him. "I have been told that ! was taking my political life in my own hands this morning In assuming to take the Col onel on after he had viciously attacked me in my own state. If I did not do so I would despise myself; my political friends would despise me and my politi-. cal foes would despise me." . Mr. Campbell demanded of Colonel Roosevelt to know whether or not the latter had sent a note to the Depart ment of Justice asking that the steps : owarJ the prosecution of the Harvest er Trust be suspended; and whether or not he had "in the night time, in pri vate conference with the heads of the T. C. & I. Co. agreed that they should be united into one corporation," Why all this furj?" asked Mr. Campbell, referring to lol. Roose veil's addrees. "Why is this receptive can didate for the presidency for a 3d term nomination fanning the passions of the people into a fury throughout th length and breadth of tbe land; what ia wrong? What has happened in tbe last 4 yaars? Only one thing .the Colonel ia not President of the United States." , Mr. -Campbell said that , four years ago Mr. Roosevelt had convinced the country that Mr. Taft waa the best fit ted man for tbe presidency and he add ed that President Taft bad "verified the promises mad for him by Colonel Roosevelt? -- '"' : . "Has it offended the Colonel that some of bis particular friends had been baled into court by the order of the PreaidentT" he said ' Did it offend tbe Colonel that a suit was instituted against the Steel Corpo ration and the Harvester Trust ?" "What is tbe trouble? It is ambi tion, thirst for power by the greatest politician since Julius Caesar.
