 Considerable space is given to rec concentrations concerning the bureau of yards and docks, navy yards and plants, power plants at navy yards, civilian employees, ordnance and ar nor, projectiles and the naval acad- emy, of which the report says: 1.-The superint of the naval academy recommends, and the board of visitors concur with him, that the ultimate age of admission to the academy be fixed at eighteen years, vnstead of twenty as at present, in order to insure a none uniform age of officers entering the service. Under the present sys- tem graduates are sometimes nearly 26 vars of age at the time of leaving the academy and are frequently out ranked by those who are younger by four or five years. AS large per centage of those who fail at the acad- emy are over eighteen when they en- ter it, this change would tend to lessen the expense to which the government is put in maintaining and educating them from one to six years, only ito find that they ultimately fail to pass the required examinations

the afternoon. X Is estimated that about
25,00Q person awaited themselves of the
opportunity. The crowd were principally
from New York. So great was the throng

The decks of the monster ship were

however, from shock. She declined to
give her name. II was said that she lived
in East Orange. Two other women faint

The Kaiser's band and that of the

LESSON OF THE ELECTION

[Frem the Evening POST of Yesterday
There is one lesson Of this election dhc
vote in New Jersey on the Constitutional
Amendments) which should not be over
looked by all students of governmental
methods. Many people have been much
impressed by the arguments in favor Of
the introduction of the referendum as a
political institution in this country The
referendum involves the submission to the
voters at comparatively short intervals of
the question whether one or another
measure submitted by the Legislature
shall be adopted as a law. What hap
pened in New Jersey yesterday was noth-
ms but an application of this very prin-s
ciple. Voters were asked to say whether
gambling of all sorts should be prohibited;
whether the Governor should be forbidden
to appoint after the adjournment of the
Legislature a man whose nomination had
previously been submitted and not con-
firmed ;and whether women shout be
granted the right of suffrage at any
school meeting. Not a third of the voters
would take the trouble to express their
views on these questions. and but a small
fraction of those who did go to the polls
showed any discrimination, for a majority
Of those who rejected the a~nti-sainpiing
amendment did not really care anything
about the question of recess appointments
by the Governor. and they voted against
the change proposed In This respect SIMPLY
because they were "antis' on the gam
bling question. Other States have had
precisely the same experience as New
Jerseys yesterday, when special elections
were held to pass upon constitutional
amendments. The bulk Of the peopie Will
not take the trouble to go to the polls for
such a purpose. Indeed, il Is hard enough
at best to secure a full recognition. of the
referendum principle at a regular election.

thing. but it won't cure rheumatism, neu-
ralgia, heart trouble, dyspepsia, nor any
of those diseases that are deeply seated
in the system.
Paine's celery compound will do what
no mere rest or vacation can do.
A thoroughly worn-out, ''unstrung''
nervous condition, brought on by months,
if not years, of needless living, depends
for renewed health on purified blood,
regulated nerves, sound sleep and perfect
assimilation of food-this is what Paine's
celery compound never fails to do.
Cities and towns are full of men and
women, back from their vacations, who
feel even more discouraged than when
they set out, because they find themselves
slipping back to their old, sleepless, Ian
guild, nervous condition. Sitting in the
sun is a good thing as far as it goes: but
there is-a worldwide difference between
the ~sun-burned counterfeit appearance of
health and the real purifying of the blood,
and the genuine strengthening of the
nerves that invariably follows the use
of Paine's celery compound.
If you have thus far failed to get rid
of sleeplessness, heart pail
pitatfon, or impure blood, you lave not
yet used Paine's celery compound. What
this greatest of all modern remedies has
done may be learned from any physician
of good standing, or from detailed ac-
counts in the most authoritative medical
journals of the country.
No remedy in the world ever had such
an army of enthusiastic friends as Paine's
celery compound, because no remedy ever
made so many people well.

deceased or her husband were members.
Much sympathy was expressed for the
afflicted husband and family of the
deceased woman.
The casket was a beautiful one, covered
with dark blue plush, and heavy silver
handles. The funeral cortege was head

floral offerings. The hearse had four
horses attached to it. Fully fifty vehicles
followed the remains to their last resting
place inthe Weehawken Cemetery.

There is a foolish, harmful notion
among many elderly persons about the
inevitable feebleness OF old age"
They make a serious mistake in thinking
their rheumatism or their failure in
strength an effect of old age instead of
the sluggish circulation, impure blood and
disordered nerves that are so quickly
remedied by Paine's celery compound.
Col. Frank G.. Moves of Nashua, N. H..
who was department commander G. A. r..
in 1896, made no such mistake, and today
he is a vigorous man of 60. He gives his
carefully considered estimate of Paine's
celery compound in the following letter.
Gent1emen-Several months ago a friend
gave me a bottle of Paine's celery COM
pound for my personal use. 1 was not
then, and had not for some time prior,
been in my customary vigor. The cause
may nave been that l had reached and
was passing the climacteric of mans life,
which comes frequently after one arrives
at the age of so. AT all events, I felt
stronger and more vigorous after 1 had
used for a while this compound. Conse-
quently I have taken it regularly since
then, and have consumed six or eight
bottles. of it. I am glad to say that, so
far as / can judge, I am as well as ever,
strong and vigorous.
Sincerely, Frank G. Noyes.
The disheartening part of every vacation
