PROMOTION FOR HoBsoN.
The Hero of the Merrimac Now
Full NavaI Constructor

The Hero of the Merrimac Now "a
Full Naval Constructor.
Richmond Pearson H0bson. the hero Of
the Merrimac, is now full naval con-
structor
Constructor John b. Hoover was re-
tired by law at the age limit, sixty-two
years. on June %. Mr.. Hobson was
the head Of the list Of assistant con-
structors and is promoted TO the senior
grade without formahty. He holds the
position subject TO examination" but
he Is entitled 20 the advanced pay and
rank Immediately. The pay of a con-
structor is s.. 200 per annum
This promotion in the ordinary course
OF events, and without any reference to
the heroic service in Santiago harbor is
making it clear to the administration
that much Of the recent criticism against
promotion TO the grade OF lieutenant
commander IN the line ror Mr. Hobson
Is entirely unfounded.
When the proposition was made to
transfer Hobson to the line and advance
him 70 the grade of lieutenant COM
znander there were officers of the line
who protested that the promotion would
be unfair TO line officers They stated
that It would be equal TO an advance of
20 numbers. and such a promotion as no
officer Of the navy ever had received be-
fore. They said that promotion TO a
Qieutenantcy would be Z sufficient recog-
milton Of his services.
1t was also suggested that IL Mr.. Hob
son were made a lieutenant commander
at his present age he would become the
senior rear admiral Of the navy in a few
years and thus if he lived would be at
The head of the navy for twenty years
before the retirement age.
II was stated by an officer Of authority
yesterday that the department has final
ly decided to leave the matter Of promo
ton unsettled until Hobson is at Iibert,,
and can indicate his own wishes. If he
desires a line promotion. unQuestionably
he viii be made lieutenant commander.
1t Is felt that the Navy would not slIf-
Ter any irreparable injury if Mr. Hob
son were senior officer for twenty years.
Promotion in times of peace has come
10 be such matter Of long service that
1or time some of the officers have been
startled at the great innovation OF an
advance of 250 numbers; but the justice
OF such a promotion for such a service
is not seriously questioned
1T Is said to be probable however, that
MI Hobson viii desire to remain in the
construction corps. AS one of the two
first men Of his class at Annapolis. he was
given his choice as to the branch of the
service he should take, and he chose the
construction corps. He has adopted
naval construction as a profession. and
he has shown himself TO be admirably
fitted for his work
In many ways the construction CORPS
Is considered to be far more desirable
7han the line There is no sea service
attached TO the service ordinarily. A con-
structor has excellent quarters furnished
him as the head Of one Of the important
navy yards. II is a fact that the two
head men Of the class at Annapolis every
year almost invariably choose the con-
struction corps.

ANTI-sALooN LEAGUE.
The Fifth Anniversary Celebrated
Last Night.


Last Night.
The Anti-SaloOn League held its fifth
annual meeting at the First COngrega-
tionla Church last evening All the mem
bers of the District organization and
several of the leading members Of the
national organization were present.
Addresses we're made by DR.. Shoe
maker OF Boston. who takes the ground
that the saloon ought 20 be abolished be-
cause it affords a favorite gathering
place for the men and women of base
morals, and because it affords shelter
for criminals and vagrants. Another
speaker was the Rt. Rev. Samuel "
Kent of Baltimore. who has been max
ing a complete tour of the country visit
ing all the prisons and who IS now COM
pleting tables showing that az least nine
tenths of the crimes committed in the
United States are directly due 10 The
use of alcohol in some of its many forms
His remarks We're very interesting. as he
gave descriptions OF prisons and rum
shops of every description from the Wal

Street Car Accident.

A great deal of excitement was created
at the corner of Third Street and Penn
sylvania Avenue southeast last night at
about half past by an accident to one
of the Capital Traction Company's cars.
The motor car of train No. 90 struck a
projection on one of the grip matches in
the center of the tracks and the bottom
of the car was torn out. Miss Minnie
Webster, a passenger on the car, jumped
off and tainted. She was carried into
O'Donnels drugstore, where restoratives
were administered and she was sent
home. The damage to the car was soon
repaired by the repair corps of the COM
pany.

Before telling this story the Juniper
Tree apologized for going beyond its
bailiwick, meaning that the story was
not a White House tale. and therefore
not the Juniper Trees exclusive prop
erty.
1t happened ever in the State, War and
Navy Department. lie was a young Of
ficer. who had not yet become accus-
toned to bis sh0ulder-sJraps nor familiar
with all their little prerogatyes.
He had but recently emerged from the
war library on the NTH floor, and was
now standing near the elevatorway, try
ing TO persuade the elevator man TO some
up and get him. Four or five separate
applications Of the push button seemed
to have no effect on the autocrat below
who manipulates the elevator.
The-y0Hng officer was beginning to get
impatient when newspaper man hap
pened along. He, too, was in hurry 20
get downstairs.
Did you ring captain"
YES, four or five times and the cap
tain rang again with increased vigor.
You're not on TO the combination. re-
marked the newspaper man. Give the
button TWO quick pushes and the eleva-
tor man will know you are an officer
and come UP in a hurry. That's an Off
GERS sign"
The new captain looked a bit doubtful
but tried the two quick pushes. imme-
diately there was e commotion down the
shaft, sounds OF sammiHg iron doors and
moving cables, and the elevator arrived
at the fifth floor with bang. The young
captain paused before getting in and
/ thanked the newspaper man.
That's a great scheme, isn't it? I'm
much obliged TO you for telling ne Of
/ it
The elevator man frowned at the news
paper man for making him new trouble
/ and then. politely turning to the officer,
asked: What floor, captain"

UNDER THE JUNIPER TREE.

One day last week the Juniper Tree
stopped tanning itself sufficiently long
to remark:
These are funny times"
Now, such a declaration was quite re-
markabie, since the Juniper Tree Is usu-
ally averse to opening up discussion on
any subject during the neat of the af-
ternoon. and of all topics in the world
''the times is withal SO ambiguous and
ordinarily so prolific of useless argument
that we We're not a little surprised at
our old friend. But the business of the
day at the White House was ended, and
there was nothing else to do, SO we, the
newspaper correspondents, agreed to hu-,
NOR the Juniper Tree by hearing what
1t had to say of its remark that These
funny times
Why were they funny times. and why
select such a not afternoon for proving
II by argument?
well" began the Juniper Tree, az
have particular reference TO the war
times, and how ordinary things subside
into insignifcance when news of battle is
momentafiy expected from somewhere
or other. You. my newspaper friends,
and occurrences as would have been made
topical features in the columns OF your
papers year ago.
Evidence the fact that for three weeks
force of workmen have been at work
rebuilding the Presidents conservatory.
The old frame structure is being re-
placed by one of steel, and when finished
ii will be. perhaps. the most complete
and modern conservatory in the capital.
Since this work began at least three
hundred newspaper men have passed
within a few yards of the builders, but
their minds were so engrossed with war
and of rumors OF war that they looked
and saw not. The general public doesn
know that the Presidents conservatory
is being rebuilt and enlarged. If the i'm
provement had been started last year or
the year before or any time but this
year, the newspapers would have printed
columns about 1t, magazines would have
printed half tone pictures of it, and there
might even have been criticism offered on
the score of extravagant expenditure of
money and so forth. That's why L re-
marked that these were funny times.
Please don't correct my English and
say l mean peculiar, perhaps, but not
funny. / hate TO be corrected
We promised not 10 correct the Juni-
per Tree and, further, to write line
about the Presidents new conservatory
in consideration of story that must be
forthcoming.
