The Joke Cost Him Dearly.

A we'll known lawyer, who
resides near Fortieth and Wal
nut streets, has the reputation
Of being an irrepressible joker,
and is moreover reputed to be of
a decidedly saving disposition,
says the Philadelphia Record.
His wife's careless ways have
always caused him much worrl~
nent. One day last week, on
going into the bathroom, he
found a cup standing On the
edge of the stationary wash stand
that contained all his wife's
jewels, together with some
"jeweler's sawdust
Now, he had continually warn-
ed his wife of the danger OF such
carelessness and decided to teach
her a lesson. The Jewels were
transferred into his pocket and
the sawdust was emptied into
the sink. Then he left hurrie slv
for a trip to New York.
Later on his wife went to the
bathroom to finish cleaning her
Jewels and was Mortified to find
them gone. Seeing traces OF
sawdust in the sink she conclud-
ed they had beeu thrown there
through mistake She sent at
once for a plumber. The entire
day was spent i'll tearing out
the pipe and digging up the
street, but of course nothing
could be found. Next morning
the Joker returned and was hor>
rifed to find what had taken
place, and since paying a bill
for $S5 he has sworn off joking.

INCREASE OF THE NAVY.
Secretary Long Will Favor The
Building of Two B-tlleships
and Six Torpedo Poa.s

The subject OF the increase OF
the navy will not be overlooked
by Secretary Long in his annu-
al report. He will recommend
liberal increase of the estab~
lishment, not SO large, perhaps,
as was urged by Secretary Her>
bert three years ago, but which
if approved by Congress, will
lead to the building of two more
battleships aud six torpedo boats.
He w II not ask for the building
of further cruisers The new
battle ships, If authorized, will
be of the Iowa type, now regard
ed as the most formidable war;
ship Of her displacement ahoat.
Other mportant recommended
tions i'll Mr.. Longs report will
be those relating to ordnance
and power. He believes that
the navy would be badly ham,
pered now in advent Of trouble
for want of proper kinds Of am>
lnunitlon. Mr.. Long will ap-
prove the recommendation of
the Ordnance Chief for an ap-
preparation of half a million for
reserve guns, to be manufactured
at the Washington Gun Factory,
and will further ask that lib>
eral appropriation be made tor
the purchase of smokeless pow
der. He will also recommend
that provision be made for con-
constructing Government
powder factory.
The Secretary will direct att
tention to the growing strength
Of the navy and the necessity OF
enlarging the enlisted force.
He will ask, it is asserted, for at
least 800 men in addition to
the II 900 now allowed by law.
The Secretary will also approve
the recommendation of the
Judge-Advocate-General of the
Navy, asking that a retiring list
be provided for searnen, such as
the army has. He will have
some strong proof to present
showing the necessity of ln>
creasing the dry~docking sys>
TEN, and will urge the building
of at least two and probably
more docks.

be treated of in a special con,mu-
nication to Congress after the

cluded what is best for the re-

The Veterans Reunion

United Confederate Veterans III
Atlanta next year is rapidly

things ready for such a reunion
as has never been witnessed
before within the ranks OF the
men who wore the gray. TO Still
further forward the movement
General Evans has called a
meeting of the citizens of Atlanta
for the purpose of considering
such plans as may be suggested
to make the reunion OF 1898 a
grand success. The veterans are
taking action in the matter, and
as the reunion will rebound to
the pride and glory OF Atlanta
