The Norfolk and Washington Steam
boat Company's steam er Norfolk was
launched from the shipyard of the Har-
Ian and Hollingsworth Company at
IL 27 o'clock this afternoon
About 500 people witnessed the launch
The steamer was on the ways in The
eastern emu of the sbipyard and pre-
sented fine appearance. A Union Jack
streamed from her bow staff, while ban.
ner bearing the initials of the steamboa

The American flag swung from the
vessels stern. On the deck and ia the
bow OF the steamer were seated a mum

Seven minutes afterward the boat was

fortune in obtaining favors. The other

fointment of a chaplain in the army
under circumstances which at FIRST did
not look favorable. Secretary Proctor
had at least 100 clergy nen after the
place. The good men we're proverbiaily
long-winded and taxed the patience OF
the Secretary TO the uttermost
When Senator Higgins came In upon
him in the midst of great mountain Of
work and presented another candidate
for the ehaplaincy, the secretary turned
about, determined to put an end 10 any
prolonged discussion Standing up TO
the fun Of his six feet In height, he said
in the lowest key OF his solemn bass
voice. Il have come to resnlu

The Secretary paused, and then looked
with an air of calm benovolence for the
FIRST time at the candidate who accom-
panied Senator aiggins The Senator
himself was completely set back. He
had not a word to say at the awful pros
pect Of the wilds u Alaska, opening up

But the candidate was a young. plncky,
energetic looking man. He stood mp and
gravely saluted. Such an appoint

WHOSE DUTY IS iTf
A Question Worrying Mayor. Street and
Sewer Department. and city solicitor.

Question Worrying Mayor. Street and
Sewer Department. and city Solicitor.
For several months there has been
general complaint that the swinging
signs upon the business streets of this
city are kIng too low to the pavement.
In fact it Is asserted that many Of them
are so low that a man carry
ing an umbrella or wearing
a high hat must stoop IN order to avoid
striking agaiest these signboards. The
ordinance provides that signs and awning
flaps shall be placed seven feet above the
pavement. The nuisance hss been known
to exist for some time, but the question
arcss as to whether It was the duty OF
the mayor or the Street and Sewer De-
partment TO notify the offenders to abate
the nuisance
By an ordinance passed June i6. 1859,
the mayor is given jurisdiction over
such matters and he is instructed to
give the offenders notice in writing Ii
at the expiration of three weeks from
date Of such notification, the nuisance Is
not abated, the offender is by the or5i-
nance subject to a fne OF IS for the Of
fense and an additional So for every
twenty four hours thereafter until the
obstacle is removed.
Mayor Harrington City Solicitor
Lyman, Chief Of Police Swiggett and
the Street and Sewer Commissioners held
9 conference In the City Council chamber
this morning, to determine whether the
creation OF the Street and Sewer DEPART.
menta in 1887 took this duty out OF
the hands Of the mayer and made ii the
duty OF the Street and Sewer
Commissioners. After o short discussion
the matter was left iii the hands OF the
mayor and city solicitor for settlement.
They will hold a confer encs Monday.
II is the intention Of the authorities 70
take prompt action in the matter of re-
moving the obstacles as soon as the cues
tion is settled.

whose Fault Is rhlsP

AS another evidence OF the ineficiency
of the Republican administration In the
post office, an instance may be cited that
has occurred several times recently. Three
days in succe ssian, papers have been re-.
ceived at this Office. which were plainly
directed in large type to the Mornir 2
News and Every Evening This does not
happen seldom. but several times every
month. The careless handling OF letters
by clerks in the post Office is often the sub.
jeet o. conversation of persons who deposit
their mail matter there A case was seen
recently when a letter was handed to 3
clerk with the request, Il possible, to place
1t in a certain mail. which was to be
made up in few minutes The clerk
took the letter and carslessly tossed it
across the room to a table, where it lay
for some time without any attention
being given to It
