GIVES RISE TO MUCH TALK.
Conference Between the President
and the French Ambassadors.

Just how much significance may be at
tached to conference at the White House
late this afternoon is not known. Just be-
fore 2:30 o'clock NJ. Jules Cambon. the
French ambassador, and NJ. Thiebaut, the
first secretary of the French legation, went
to the White House and were ushered
into the blue room, where they were join
ed by President Mckinley.
A few minutes later Assistant Secretary
Moore of the State Department arrived and
was usEered into the same parlor. A con-
ference of ten or fifteen minutes was held.
Speculation has full swing. Some believe
that the French ambassador submitted Of
fetal peace propositions. The visit was an
unusual one and gave rise to much gossip.
Secretary Day IS cut of the city, and, it is
claimed. If Ambassador Cambon had any
thing important to submit 1t is likely that
he would go direct to the White House. If
Secret ry Day had been here he would have
gone TO the State Department.

ONE HUNDRED YEARS
The Age of the United States Marine
Corps.
The Organization Then and Now
How 1t Was Formed
and When,

Today the United States Marine Corps
| a.; corps. is 100 years old. on American
warships in opposite quarters of the globe
the centennial anniversary will be toasted,
and wherever the stars and stripes float
no naval station the corps will be rep
resented
The past hundred years have been crowd
ed with brilliant exploits of this arm of
the military service of the United States.
The history of the Marine Corps is replete
with gallant actions. Wherever the Amor
lean navy has figured, in war or in peace,
the Marine Corps has been represented
and with distinction.
The first authentic record of marines in
America, according to Columns history Of
the corps, bears the date of 1T40 Early in
that year three additional regiments were
raised when the royal standard WAS dis
played at New York port to which any
volunteer marine was to repair. November
10, 100. after the Continental Congress had
resolved that the compact between the
crown and The people of Massachusetts ray
was dissolved, the Congress provided for
the raising of two battallons of marines.
From the hour of their earliest organiza-
ton the marines made a noble record for
themselves and for their country. In the
early naval fights they played most i'm
portant part, amply proving their devotion
TO the cause IN which they were enlisted
and furnishing conclusive evidence of the
wisdom of the legislation which called the
corps into existence
April 30, 1898, a regular Navy Depart
nlent was formally created, and in June
Benjamin Stoddart of Georgetown. d. G.,
was made the first Secretary. July IL. 1913,
an act was approved for the establishment
ana the organization of the Marine Corps.
This was to consist of a number of off
and I2o privates. The first major -ccm-
niandant was William w. Burrows and
there were four captains-Daniel Carmick,
Lcmuel Clark, George Meminger AMI
Franklin Wharton. There were sixteen
first lieutenants and nine second ;ieuteH-
ants.
Today the corps consist of 4, 100 men.
Col Charles Haywood is the colonel COM
mandant with five officers of the general
staff, one colonel, two lieutenant colonies,
Tour majors, twenty captains, thirty first
ieUtenants, nine second lieutenants and
twenty-four second Heutenants for the war.

AFRAID OF THE GLASS EYE.
Japanese Coolies Would Not Serve
the Unfortunate Owner of 1t.

the Unfortunate Owner of 1t.
From the Yorkville Is. c. Yeoman
A year or two ago an artist from San
Francisco who Wore glass eye came to
Yokohama and established himself In a lit
tie bungalow on the outskirts of the city.
The weather was extremely warm, and
before the stranger had become settled he
was besieged by a number of coolies who
wanted to get the job of tanning him at
night The artist looked over the appli-
cants and finally selected an old man who
brought excellent recommends tons from
his last employer.
When it was time to retire the artist took
bedside and went to bed. The old man
man was soon asleep. He slept peacefully
for an hour or two, when he was awakened
by a chorus of buzzing insects about his
head. He looked about him and found that
the man whom hs had hired to fan him
was gone.
The next morning when he went in search
of another coolie he was amazed to discover
tfat no one would work for him. He was
looked upon as a wizard and worker of
miracles, with whom it was unsafe to be
alone. The old man had gone among his
friends and told how the Californian had
taken out his eye at night and laid it on a
stand in order that he might watch his
servant at night and see that he kept his
fan in motion. The old coolies story GRE
ated such excitement that the San Fran
cisco man was never able to get another
japanese to fan him after that
