BAHEN's SPINE FRACTURED.
Georgetown's Injured Foot Ball Player
ina Dangerous Condition.

Washington, Dec. 2.-The condition Of
Bahen, the captain of the Georgetown col
Iege foot ball eleven, who was
so severely injured in the game
with the Columbia Athletic Club
on Thanksgiving day, remains about
the same. The spine is fractured and
the pressure on the spinal cord has pro-
dueed paralysis from the chest down.
He will be moved from the college dispen-
sary tomorrow and taken to a hospital,
where an effort will be made to remove
the fractured pieces of bone. The opera
ton is to be made as last resort, and
his recovery is doubtful.
The other players injured during the
same game are either entirely recovered
or out of danger.

FEW SHIPS UNDER OUR FLAG.
Many American Built Vessels Sailing
Under Other Flags.

Washington, Dec. 2.-The annual report
Of the commissioner OF navigation, Mr..
Chamberlain, is mainly an argument for
free ships, based on maritime facts of the
United States and other nations. Only
six American steamships, including tho
New York and Paris. crossed the Atlantic,
and only seven the Pacific last year, while
from New York and Philadelphia alone 33
ships, mainly new steel vessels owned
by Americans, crossed regularly to Europe
under foreign flags. American enterprise,
he says, is essentially in advance of the
law, for Americans own more steamships
forbidden by the registry law to wear
American colors than they own steam
ships in the foreign trade under the stars
and stripes.

ACTORS IN PERIL.

An actor appeared upon the stage of a
minor theater last night whose name was
never written upon the boards Of that
classic resort of lovers of the drama. nor
for that matter upon the boards of any
other theater.
A simrle sailor is employed on the Brit

miller and the colonel throttle each other
and breathe out threatening slaughter on
account Of a maiden fair.
They were about to wailow in each
others gore last night, as they have done
before, when the sailor leaped upon the
-tage and grasped the comba,ants by the
throats. The audience shrieked with de-
light, and the actors realizing the situation
drew the unsophisticated sailor behind
the scenes and gave him lesson which
will hereafter enable him to discriminate
between the real and the unreal.
The unknown sailor reappeared upon
the stage blushing with modification and
was greeted with whirlwin of applause.
He bowed his owledgments 1 and
gracefully retired.

Welburn'S Circular to the

The LabOrerS Anxious to Comply

1.-THE Chinese are rushing In every

"and the prospects are tnat there will be
less than 5000 to deport from my district

states That mus tell the Chinese that If they
DO not register before May 3. that is the third
day OF the fifth month OF this year, then The
Government of the United States will surely
send them back 10 China.

THE various depu ies," continued the
Collector, "have finally settled down to
their work ana are doing more than was
expected of them. 1t is rather too soon as
yet to talk about deportation, but when
the time comes. if this Office has anything
to do with the matter. that provision of
The law will be enforced as rigldly as it
can be-"
In Chinatown the merchants who hire
lab0rers complain that IN the outside dis
trcts it costs more in the time of labor
lost in trying TO register than it would to
bring the men to this city. The fight
against registration has been abandoned,
but the Chinese, ever thrifty, propose To
make the Government take IF their hands
ali the paupers and invalids and depcrt
them. Once in China the rich Chinese
here do not care what becomes of their
decrepit and crippled countrymen. The
burden of their support will no longer be
upon the Chinese in California, and that
is the end desired to be reached.
As the work of the various registration
bureaus proceeds the clerks, growing
FAM liar with their work, are able to
handle three times the number of appli-
cants that they were a few weeks ago, and
it is more than probable that by May 3
next all the Chinese who want to register
will have taken the opportunity.
