Washington, Q. C., Nov. 7.-Little Mary Marguerite Jones, only daugh- ter of James K. Jones, l., son of the senior senator from Arkansas, died Sunday morning at the family resi- dence, 9l5 M street northwest. From infancy little Marguerite had been aD intense but patient sufferer from dis ease. The family exhausted every means to bring about her recovery, but to no avail. Her condition was such, the latter part of last week, that her faGher, Mir. J. K. Jones, Jr., and Senator Jones, who were In Ar kansas waiting to vote, were tele- graphed to come to Washington at once. They started on their anxious journey only to be informed at St. Louis Sunday morning of the little girls death. They reached here this afternoon at o'clock. Funeral s7r vices were held at the residence at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon and at 3:30 o'clock the body was taken back to Washington, Ark, for burial in the Jones family plot. MT. J. K. Jones. the father of the deceased. Miss Sue Jones, aunt, and MT. Edwin Seiton, private secretary to Senator Jones, accompanied the remains h, me. Friends of the family sent many handsome floral offerings. The pail bearers were: Messrs. Geo. King, of Pine Bluff; Eugene White, of Prescott; Will Littlepage, Of Batesyille, and Frank Kellam, Of Camden.

VANDALISM.
Rumans Destroy Gates and Fences on
 West Fifeh Avenue.

We live in civilized age. but van dalism is not entirely dead in this community.
 Saturday night about midnight some drunken ruffians walked up Fifth avenue tearing down plckets and gates from in frcnt of residences along that thoroughfare and doing whatever damage they could.
 The heighth of their vandalistic proclivities seems to have,been reach ed in front of Mir. A. $. IIonnet's res idence. Here the pickets from his newly painted fence were torn off and gate entirely broken down and left lying on the ground. At Mir. J. W. Adams residence one pannel fence was almost annihilated, andi then the dastards proceeded to do what damage they could to Dr. Troupe's fence. Further damage was also done to picket fences fur thur up the street
 Such acts of vandalism aad de- structiyeness are not becoming to this civilized community. and the vandals should be ferreted out and punished.

THEATRICAL ADVERTISING.
James L. Glass Strongly Advises the Use
 of the Newspaper.

A very attractive 12.page leafiet, entitled "The Birth of an Idea." re- gently issued by James l.. Glass, the advertising expert, touching on the atrical advertising. has caused no little comment and discussion In lO- cal and outside theatrical circles. He very earnestly and strongly advo- cates the abandonment toflithograph advertising, suggesting a liberal use Of newspaper space. Hints are made, and directly, too, that the theater is more dependentnpon the newspapers for success than any other business, but that there was a time when gaudy Autographs had the effect of exciting public interest, but that time has passed. The people now depend upon the newspapers for their theat- rical information.
 Mir. Glass asserts that the average theatrical manager usually over looks the changed conditions, and adheres to the old elap-trap methods and uses the newspapers only for small cramped advertisements, writ ten in bombastic style, which very few believe. It is upon this basis the managers expect generous contribu- tions in the news columns, and if they don't get it. they feel injured. He proposes to introduce new meth ods of advertising into the business that has selung conventional meth ods, while most all other kinds are rapidly adyaLelng. The claim is made that the business of any good theatrical attraction can be inereas- ed hy newspaper advertising present. ed to the public in proper manner and Nritten by u man who under stands the art of ad-writing. Mr. Glass says be will direct the adver- Using for several attractions next season, and will depend almost en- tirely upon newspaper publicity, ,and he conscientiously believes that the time will not be long before the newspapers will contain large, at tractive and we'll written theatrical announcements, disclosing at once the handiwork of the expert adver- Using manager.

1he supreme court room was damaged principally by water and smoke, the fire not reaching that point Adjoining the court room, however, both the marshal s office and the senate barber shop fur nished food for the flames.
 The busts of Chief Justice Mashall and other distinguished members of the suprme court, which were arranged on pedestals about the supreme court cham CT were either badly damaged or wholly destroyed and with their destruction the country has suffered an irreparable loss Many of them have been treasured as exhibits in the supreme court cham Der for half century.
 The capitol building has been dam- aged number of times before by fire, it is believed that this fire will prove to be the most disastrous i'll the history of the building. On two occasions prior to this, fires have been started by explosions of gas. Seventeen years ago large amount of damage was done to the same part of the building by an ex- plosion of this kind, and in 1876 there was an explosion of gas that killed one man and came near killing another.
 In the opinion of capital officials and mechanics who examined the structure, the loss will reach probably $200,000 to the building. The loss on the library and records, as stated, above, can scarce ly be estimated in dollars and cents. One million dollars could not replace them because of many of them no dupli- oates are i'll existence.

MAY CAUSE AMERICA
 TO BE LESS ExAC CTiNG.
The Eclair Says the Possibility of Ger many Interfering Tn the Philippines
 May Cause UnIted States to Think.

Paris, Nov. 8. The Eclair, after pro ducing all six of the articles of the peace protocol says:
 Ut is to be hoped that the United States will not maintain her first preten- sions in regard to the Philippine islands. The question of sovereignty over the is- lands is one, however, which interests Spain only, but Germany, from time 10 time, allows it to be thought she is not indifferent as to the fate of the islands, and the possibility of interference from this power will perhaps cause America to be less exacting.

What Happened to Jonesv.

The coming engagement of Harry eorson Clnrke and his company of merrymakers Is arousing the utmost enthusiasm amongst our better class of people and the engagement of this talented comedian at the opera house next Wednesday night, Mo- vember 9, bids fair to be the most successful, from both an artistic and financial standpoint, of any In this city in years. He has certainly shown great foresight and executive ability in securing the relgning New York success for the western territory, for in What Happened to Jones" he has, what Is said to be, the best and cleanest comedy writ ten in years and In addition to that It hts him like the proyerbial glove. As "J ones." who is equally at home selling hymn books orplaying cards, he is excruciatingly funny. and the many complications in which he finds himself are so cleverly handled that he has won the admiration of both the press and the public.

A Couple of Plain Drunks.

Sergeant Vance was rather busy
last night. The first to run amuck
was a brick layer by the name Of
Newman. Alter spending the night
in the cooler he grew lepentant and
confessed that he had imbibed little
more 'jack" than the law allows, the
mayor after listening to his story
thought about three dollars and
eighty cents would just square the
matter. Newman had no objection
so paid it like a little man.
Next on the carpet stepped Clel
Bright, when asked the charge the
Sergeant said in nonchalant manner,
"Drunk and Disorderly.n Clel
couldn't explain how it happened and
not having any of the .sinewes of war
about him, upon advice of the mayor
decdsd to locate at the Bastile for the
next twenty days. incidentally His
Honor suggested that he diet himself
on bread and water.

IMPORTANT RULINGS
AS To the Question Raised BY
the New War.
Revenue Law-Teachers Certificates
do Not Need to be Stamped.
Merchandise "Serip" Not
TaxabIe-Secret Soci.
ETY. Orders.

Collector White has received some
important rulings in the past few days
as to points raised under the new
war revenue law.
One is that scrip issued by coal COM
panies payable in merchandise is not
taxable.
Another is that the tax on travelling
theatrical companies and medicine
company shows is at the rate of $40
for the fiscal year instead of at the
rate of 500 per year as at first held.
The ruling as to theatrical compan-
les, of course applies to the cities
and towns of less than 25, 900 inhab-
itants, where they perform in halls
not required to pay the 500 tax.
An order has been received, on a
fuller hearing Of the case, to issue
special stamp tax for the sale of IL.
quors to the Mary c. CAMPBELL, as a
steamboat licensed to carry passengers.
Another important ruling is that
orders given by secretaries of secret
orders, on the treasurer for money,
need not be stamped. This applies
to hundreds of orders throughout
the State of West Virginia.
Another important ruling, which
reyerses the position taken at first,
is that teachers certificates, while a
certificate required by law and held
at first to be taxable ten cents each,
do not require to be stamped, being
issued for government purposes, rath-
er than the private use of the indi-
vidual. Quite large number of GER
tificates have been stamped, to be on
the safe side and in accordance with
the construction of the law previous
ly held in this district, but hereafter
they Will not require the ten cent
stamp.

WEATHER OBSERVATIONS.
The Local Weather Man takes a
Look Backward.

"The Washington Weather Bu-
reau has given us some forecasts
this season that were more or less
accurate" said our local man, "but
there are some observations about
which we can't be mistaken, for they
have already been verified"
''1n the first place it has been the
measliest, muddiest, moistest sea
son we have ever had in this eli
mate Everything has suffered, not
to mention our good temper Our
building enterprises have all been
delayed. In the very season when
such work is expected to go for
ward without much interruption
from the character of the weather,
mechanics have been compelled to
lay of'as much as if it were mid win
ter"
"Our street paving has not yet
made a start It has taken six
months to make contract, and now
that the season is half over, and the
materials on the ground the weather
promises to complete the failure of
considerable progress before winter
interrupts it altogether
"The school building is standing
still; the postoffice building is only
begun when it ought to be finished );
and all over town workmen are
standing around waiting for it to
quit raining in order that building
operations may go forward"
$50 also are the farmers suffer
ing in the county The hay has
been put up as far as possible, be-
tween showers, but much of it has
been damaged or spoiled by the CON
tinuous rain. The oats crop has suf-
fered much; and nothing on the
farm is getting any benefit from the
character of the weather but the
growing corn"
Altogether" said the local wealth
er man, ''this season will record the
most rain and the least business; the
most heat and the least working
temperature in recent history. Just
now the rainy season seems to have
settled down to a permanent job

A Few of the Things that have
been done in the last
twenty-four hours.

The doom of Manila has
been sealed Dewey and Mer-
rift are about ready for the
attack.
In the battle of Malata the
hardest fighting was done by
the Tenth Pennsylvania. In
this regiment seven were
killed.
Among those wounded at
Malata were two students
from Waynesburg college.
One of them V. II. Holmes
played foot ball here last fall.

secret. The authorities will
not give for publication its
entire purport.
Dole will continue as chief
executive of Hawaii for a

Four of the seven lost at
Malata came from one place,

WORK ON LOCK DELAYED.
The heavy rains cause cessation of
work there.

The recent rains have played hav-
oc with the construction Of the new
lock. The contractors in charge
had just arrived at that stage of
progress when they could forge
ahead and had it not been for the
sudden rise Of the river, things in
that locality would hum till late in
the fall.
AS it is work has ceased and will
not be commenced again for couple
of weeks, probably more than that.
AS a result over a hundred men are
thrown out Of employment. The
water is several feet over the Golfer
dam, and should it rise much high
er it will cause serious damage. The
contractors were strainlng every
effort TO finish the work In the short
est possible time and the delay
caused by the heavy rains will be
sorely felt by them Several loaded
barges have broken loose but so far
none have gotten away.
