FRIDAY A HOLIDAY.

All Misrepresentation on the Subject
Set at Rest.
! WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-The navy will
do its part toward celebrating the Colum-
bian anniversary. The vessels Of the North
Atlantic squadron are at Stratford, Conn.
to-day for that purpose On Oct. 81 the
naval forces at the Brooklyn and Norfolk
VA navy yards will parade. and later on
Oct. 81 the Vesuvius and Dolphin will be at
Charleston, s. c., TO assist in the local cele-
bration.
As there appears to be doubt entertained
in some quarters as to whether Dot. 81 is q
general holiday, it may be interesting to re-
call the fact that the President has already
acted officially iu the matter
and by proclamation has appointed that
date holiday. The proclamation was is
sued on July 21 last, and was probably OBJ
scured from public attention by reason OF
the rapid succession of important events
attending the closing day of the session of
congress, although it was sent out to the
country through the medium Of the Asso-
ciated Press at the time. The place where
the greatest uncertainty seems to exist upon
the question is New York. So far as that
state is concerned section "a of the general
laws adopted by the last legislature pro-
vides that holidays shall be leach day ap-
pointed by the President Of the United
States or by the governor of this state as a
day of general thanksgiving, general fast
ing and prayer, or other general religious
observance" AS the Presidents proclama-
ton expressly provided for general re>
ligious observances" there can be no ques-
tion that Friday, Oct. 81, is a legal holiday
in New York state as elsewhere.

Overworked by Their officers.
DUBLIN, Oct. 1s. The Independent to-
day says that dangerous spirit of disaf-
fection exists among the Thirteenth Hus-
sars, stationed at Ballin College. five miles
west OF Cork. The trouble, it ia said, is
similar TO that which caused the recent
mutinY among the members OF the "Cn
squadron OF the First regiment Of the Life
Guards at Windsor. The Independent says
the relations between the officers and men
Of the Thirteenth Hussars are much strained.
A few nights ago serious dis
