NAVAL ACADEMY VACANCY.
secretary Herbert Has Made Tw,

Secretary Herbert Has Made Two
Recommendations for IT.
There is a vacancy in the faculty OF
the Naval Academy at Annapolis and con-
siderable difficulty is being experienced
in filling it.
Partly owing 10 the friendly assistance
given this country in the war OF the RevoIu-
tion number ofthe teachersi inthe academy
have been Frenchmen. One oftLeSe whose
face is familiar throughout the fighting
official force OF the Navy is Prof Lucien F.
Prudhomme. who. with the title Ofprofessor
of mathematics. was for many years atthe
head ofthe department OF foreign languages.
He had the rank OF comma nder andthe pay
of s., 500 a year Several months ago
he was retired and ever since then there
has been brisk contest going on for his
place.
Lieut.. Strauss was first selected. That
was some time since. He was an expert
on ordnance and armor and it was for
this he was chosen 1t was intended to
assign him to duty here, where lie could
be useful in that line But Mr. Strauss
declined the appointment ON account Of
the conditions
Secretary Herbert then looked over the
field carefully and recommended Lieut.. T.
c. FentOn, from the list OF those whose
friends Were urging their selection But
this did not go through smoothly. PreSi-
dent Cleveland has sent for the papers
with the purpose of making selection for
himself. IL is claimed that the occupant
of the position must know the Spanish
language whereas Lieut.. Fenton has
never studied it at all so far as the
records show 1t he has any knowledge
of the tongue he has simply picked il up
Other candidates of whom all are very
strongly supported by influence are Mr.
Robert h W Gods, oft he Naval W ar Records
office here; Prof. W. W. Johnson and Prof.
Paul Dashieil of the academy faculty Mr.
Woods is Yirginian, and has the backing
of Gen FitZhugh Lee, and the Virginia
delegation in Congress. The appointm
will be made before March 4.

ISTENl Housekeepers and thinking
IL people, have you ever considered the
risks you run and the great necessity
to have in your house pure laundry soap?
The idea to investigate soap took me over
to the factory Of Weaver, Kengla & Co,
soap manufacturers, 3244 Water street,
Georgetown, d. G.. This is the only soap
factory in the city and is always open TO
receive visits from the inqmring public.
Here smade the different grades oflaundry
soaps sent out by this long-established
house and ranked as the purest and most
reliable laundry soaps now on the market.
In this establishment they prepare their
own tallow. Thsis rendered by themselves
with the greatest care The kettle is
charged with this, killed into soap by
means OF caustic soda lye, after which the
desired quantity OF rosin is added, this
rosin being OF the best quality 1t is then
permitted to boil for about two days. fin
ished and allowed to rest about two days
more. 1t is then transferred 10y means OF
pump TO crutching or mixing machine,
where is added the chemicals such as borax,
etc, which may be necessary. 1t is in
condition now to be poured into fran es
of large iron m6lds holding about l 600
POUNDS each, rolled aside and allowed to
co5l, which it ddeslin about one weeks
time. Itis then Ieadydo be- cut into bars
or blocks, pressed and wrapped when de-
sired. This can bc done by machinery, but
a wire was used that makes an accurate
clean cut. II an imperfect bar comes
forth not holding the exact weight it is
thrown back into, the boiler for a Sec
ond process. The soap is now placed on
racks TO dry and allow for final shrinking
before weighing, -Rhbn it is boxed and
ready for shipment to merchants.
1t is OF the greatest Importance to use in
the making of laundry soaps the cleane st
of materials as it is a well known fact that
all animal fat and those that die from dis
ease can make their way to some render
ing establishment on the outskirts of a
city, and find an asylum for their decayed
carcasses. in a soap kettle, and you can
have that essence rubbed along with the
Monday wash into your choicest body linen
which may often cause a serious skin dis
ease. The cause you can't account for.
A visit to the w eaver, Kengla Soap Factory
is OF interest 10 anyone. The latest inn
provements, TO cut, stamp, and test soap,
are all to be seen The immensity Of the
watts will surprise you, one vat holding
40, 900 pounds of boiling soap. The entire
lack of bad odors, and the perfect sanitary
condition of the factory will give you many
new ideas that the mere buying of piece
of soap at yonr grocer's will never bring
forth. 1t will cause the prudent house
keeper to make inquiries and from my ex-

THE NEW SUGAR SCANDAL.
Editorial Opinion of Legislation for
Trusts.

Is the country to be afflicted with a
second sugar scandal? Are the sen
Rtors from Havemeyer" ex-ofiicio mem
bers of the finance committee. and are
they to be permitted 10 dictate The i'm
portant sugar schedule? Chicago
Evening Post (Ind. Rep.
The senate committees bill, wheth-
er designed to do so or not. will give
the trust a great advantage should it
become a law. For that reason the
country is bitterly opposed to the SEN
ate sugar schedule, and if the senate
will heed the voice of the people that
schedule will not be embraced in the
rev tariff. - indianapolis Journal
Rep).
The storm over the sugar schedule is
steadily increasing. All the examina,
tions which have been made since its
report, instead of clearing it up, only
make it look the blacker. 1t has appar-
emily been made of very complicated
character to battle analysis and to dis
guise a job, but, intricate as it is, it
does not conceal the fact that it en-
braces a very large differential for the
benefit of the trust This conviction is
universal, and it is aggravated by the
stories of personal profit in connection
with it.-Philadelphia Press Rep.).
The specific charge by a responsible
newspaper in Chicago that three mem
bers of the senate speculated in the Sc
cretS of the committee room after the
sugar schedule on the senate tariff bill
had been framed, and profited $4,000
by the transaction, is altogether too
serious to be treated by the senate
with contempt or indifference.
The peculiar influence which the
magnates of the sugar trust have ex.
erted in the framing OF the new sugar
schedule has already created suspicious
as to the integrity of Tie trainers of the
bill. If the charge against the alleged
spectators shall not be investigated,
it will serve to strengthen, if not con-
firm, this Observation-Disclosures Bul,

to raise his voice against the order
OF things now existing. In speech
before the Business Mems League
OF Philadelphia Friday night he
sounded a bold note of warning such
as we Populists have been sounding
for many years. He prophecid a
new party unless a change comes.
He said:
The country is not prosperous.
Since the outset of the last preSiden-
tial campaign the party, press and
political leaders generally fixed the
November election of 1896 as the date
OF the beginning of good Times. A
full half Of the year has expired since
the will of the Republican party was
declared. Thus far but one of the
most important issues of the cam
paign is nearing settlement and
hardly any noticeable improvement of
the wretched times is manifested
The tide will soon set in strongly
against the Republican party unless
the depression of business is altered.

conceived for Matchmaking purposes,

Senator Pettigrew has introduced an

OF articles controlled by trusts. Should

yield? There are trusts in sugar. coal
window and plate glass, lumber. pot

In nearly all kinds OF hardware. There
is no trust in tea, but that Is probably
because there has been no duty to en-.
