NEW YORK, N. Y, Sept. 1.-THE Suns
Washington special says:
Fighting Bob Evans will have his ap-
plicatlon to be transferred from the New
York to the Indiana granted. He will
have the honor of commanding the navy's
first battleship and the largest war vessel
constructed IN this country. Secretary
Herbert was opposed at first to the trans
fer Of Evans, and it is believed he makes
the assignment at the request OF the Presi-
dent, who will grant Evans almost any
naval detail he wishes.
The detail of Fighting Bob is sure to
create surprise in the navy: where it is held
that SO fine a vessel as the Indiana and the
only battleship ready for service should be
in charge of a captain higher in rank than
Evans, who was only promoted about
seven months ago.

Great Opportunity to Make Money.
I have had such splendid success that
1 can't help writing to you about it. I
have not made less than s., and some
days from SIS to 1875. 1 am really elated
and can't see why others do not go into
the dish washer business at once. 1
have not canvassed; sell all my wash
ers at home. They give such good sat
isfactiou that everyone sold helps to
sell others. 1 believe in a year I can
make a profit of three thousand dollars
and attend to my regular business be-
sides. When a Climax dish washer can
be bought for SIS, every family wants
one, and it is very easy selling what
everybody wantf to buy. For p%articu-
lars, address The Climax Mfg. Co., Co.
