CHARLES POWERS
Charles Powers, son. of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Powers, was drowned Tuesday night off Ulmer Park, Coney Island, where he, with Augustus Smith, also of this place, were on a schooner.
They had anchored for the night and had retired. Some time during the night Mr. Smith heard the young man arise from his bunk but paid no atten¬ tion. In the morning he found the bunk used by Powers empty and his search for him was without result.
The clothes that Powers had taken off when he retired at night were found just as he had placed them, and appar¬ ently he had only his night clothes on when he went out on deck.

The New York American gives the following biographical sketch of Frank H. Stevens, of this place, who has been nominated by the Independence League Party for Secretary of State:
"The name of Frank H. Stevens of Nassau County is one that last night's convention decided would bring many votes to the State ticket and would give tabor a strong representation. Mr. Stevens has long been prominently identifled with well-known labor and other organizations. Now forty years old, he was born in Clinton, Iowa, but has spent the active years of his life in New York atate, and now lives, with his wife, in Preeport, Long Isl¬ and.
Mr. Stevens is a business man, being in the ink business, and is a member of the Traveling Men's Asso¬ ciation. He never took any active part in politics until the Independence Party's campaign of 1906, when as its candidate he was alaetsd a trustee of the village of Fraeport.
Last year both the Republican and Damocratic parties fused against Mr. Stevens, but despite thit) strong oppo¬ sition he waa defeated fur re-election by onl^ forty-two votea. Among th« orders of which be ia a member are the Modem Woodmen of America, the Ma¬ sons aod the Odd Fellows."
