Senator William L. Mason has always
been a joker. Even when schoolboy
he never let chance pass without hav-
ing his fun at the expense of some one
else. When he was public school
pupil the boys knew as much about
''cribbing" as they do now, and it was
nothing new for them TO conceal need
ed information on their cuffs or inside
their watches. One day when Willie
Mason was taking an examination, the
keen-eyed teacher observed him take
out his watch every few minutes. The
pedagogue grew suspicious. Finally
he strobe slowly down the aisle and
stopped at Willie's desk. Let me see
your watch" he commanded. "All
right, sir" was the meek reply. The
teacher opened the front lid. he
looked somewhat sheepish when he
read the single word: Fooled But

Chase Lister.

The Chase-Lister performance atth
opera house last night was fully up to
the standard which The CHIEFTAIN
predicted. The company is strong
throughout and all who were present
last night went away with a feeling of
an evening well spent. Tonight,
"Texas," or the siege of the Alamo, is
the bill and we advise no one to be de-
tered from attending because the
prices are but 10, 20 and 80 cents.

DEWEY'S REPORT
Will Be Given to the Pubic in Sub
stance as Soon as Received.

WASHINGTON, May 5.-The failure
of the navy department to receive Off
cial advices from Dewey is not
surprising to Secretary Long.
He says Dewey would hard
ly. have detached one of bis
vessels to carry dispatches to Hong
Kong, the nearest cable station, until
he had completed the work he had cut
out TO- him to do. He certainly didn't
send q dispatch boat until he had
hoisted the stars and stripes over the
fortificstion. of Manila.
The statement that news had been
received from Dewey was mphstically
denied at the navy department. this af-
ternoon. 1t was announced today that
the list of casualties on board the
Ameri an squadron would be given to
the public whenever it was received,
no natter at what honr of the day or
night.

WASHINGTON, May 5.-Oficial
Washington is still in state of sus-

and citizens generally are anxiously
awaiting the report from Commodore
Dewey giving the full facts as to the
famous sabbath day battle at Manila
and its results. All day yesterday re-
ports circulated that the dispatch from
Dewey had been received. They came
from such apparently reliable
sources that they were generally &C
cepted as correct. Today this belief is
freely expressed among army and navy
officers and government officials, and
many people have come to the conclu-
sion that the report is being withheld
from the public for gooi and sufficient
reasons.
