J. A. ROOSEVELT DEAD.
Uncle of the Rough Riders Colonel
Dies on q Train.

New York. July 16.-James Alfred
Roosevelt. an uncle of Col. Theodore
Roosevelt a prominent bank n and lark
commissioner under Mayor Strong. died
suddenly yesterday afternoon OF Il Long
Island Railroad train. while on his way
from this city to bis country home at
Cove Neck, Oyster Bay. L. 1. A blood
vessel bursting in his brain is ST. posed
to have caused his death.
When he boarded the train which left
Long Island City at 20 minutes to 5
O'Clock he appeared to be in his usual
good health.
As soon as the train started from ia
maica Mr.. Roosevelt unfolded a newspa-
per and began to read the war news.
He was known to be deeply interested in
following the career Of his nephew, Col.
Theodore Roosevelt, in Cuba, and read
everything which bore on the Campaign
Of the Rough Riders.
After passing Queens the newsboy on
that train noticed that Mr.. Roossvelt's
head was inclined far to one side and
rested against the window He touched
him on the arm. but he did not move.
In the same car were President william
H. Baldwin. of the Long Island Rail-
road. who ordered the train stopped at
Aineola and some brandy was brought.
Some OF it was poured down the stricken
mans throat. He sank rapidly in spite
OF all. and between Mineola and Willis
ton Mr.. Roosevelt died.

THE TAX ON DOGS.
Over One Thousand Licenses Have
Been Issued During July.

The Washington dog is always allowed
thirty days grace in which to provide
himself with a tag or to get out of the
city.
There is to be no change in the pro-
gram this year. Between tihe 1st Of July
and the 1st of August owners of dogs
must invest in tags. During this month
Poundmaster Einstein and his assistants
occupy their time In repairing the nets
and greasing the wheels of their wagons.
Worknen are masking repairs to the
pound and are getting ready for the an
nual roundup that will begin on August
1st.
The dog tax rolls around once a year
like all other taxes.
There are many dogs In Washington.
In the park, dogs lodge throughout the
year and elude fhe poundmaster. These
stray dogs have no friends and Sever
wear a tag. 1t is in the suburbs that
the dog-catcher meets with greatest sue
cess.
The captives are taken to the pound
and confined in a large pen until the ar
rival of claimant. The record shows
that not one dog in ten is reclaimed. Ere
quently valuable animals are caught, and
are marked for the same fate as the ours.
All of them must die unless released up-
on payment of the customary fine of s..
1t is seldom, however, that dogs of quail
ity suffer the death penalty. Dealers in
sporting animals make regular trips to
the pound. and when fine dog is un-
claimed they secure his release Any
person desiring dog can choose from the
unclaimed stock and get one by the paw
ment of 50.
The dog tax is no small source of reye-
nue. to the District. Last year there were
issued sos dog licenses, making a reve- |
nue. of S16.149 So far this month the num- |
Der of licenses issued 1t 1.l02.

st SNithin,s Day.

To the believers in the old adage that II
it rains on st. Swithin's Day. July Is.
which was yesterday. 1t will rain for the
next forty days, Washington Jared a lit
tie better than many other places. There
was slight rainfall in the morning. so
slight that the Weather Bureau man re-
corded it as being but trace" 1t was
less than one-hundredth of an inch, and
as the meteorological saint, whom tradi-
ton has made weather prophet, did not
specify any certain amount of rainfall. 1t
was sufhcient for the believers of the ad-
age to base hope upon. There was also
about the same amount of rainfall In RAT
timore. but Philadelphia and New York
were less fortunate. as no rain fell at
either place.

THE CHINESE REBELL1oH.

There was much happiness yester1a
among the Cinnamon Of this city ove

eventually released on the demand of the
Marquis of Salisbury.
The Hing Chung woay. or Chinese
Progressive Society. has a considerable
following in Washington and the mem
bers are much Interested in the move
ments of their brethren at home. One
OF the leaders said to a Times man yes
terday:
1.-The inhabitants of China almost to a
man are greatly dissatisfied with the ex-
listing government, the Emperor being a
Mongolian and very strict in his treat
ment OF the people. The poor people in
CHINA are the slaves of the country 1t

ceed This Is the object of the Progress
sive Association. and nearly all the Chi
namen in America contribute to the as
sistance of the rebels at home. Our peo-
pie believe that the Emperor and his
caDlnet officers deliberately robbed them
during the war with Japan. and this
fresh instruction is the result of the
termination of that war and the end of
China as an empire. When the associa-
tion succeeds in overthrowing the pres

When once aroused they will fight to the
death. The leaders of the Progressive
Association have all visited or lived in
the United States at various times. and
have been prosperous. The insurgents
are better equipped for war than the i'm
perialists. for the arms used by them
are modern in every respect. and they
are governed by military laws similar TO
those in use by the American army. This
was acquired by the leaders
in travel throughout this country. and
is now of great service. Our people are
tired of oppression. They have an i'm

immense output OF Cove rn nm mt
Bakery at ChicknmauGn.
Chickamauga, Ga, July 1S.-One of the
points of interest at Camp Thomas is the
big Government bakery which furnishes
fresh bread for Gen. Brooke's army This
enormous institution has been in opera
does the trooper protest against eating
bareback"
1t is no doubt the largest bakery in the
world devoted exclusively to bread bak-
ing. An enormous amount Of -four is con-
sumed in a day. and, Of course, the out
put is great. At present the output is
over 5000 loaves of bread every twenty
four hours. A force of $50 men Is EN-
ployed working night and day. One force
of men goes on duty at noon and works
until midnight when they are relieved by
the second shift.
An amount of the work is accomplished
by machinery. but the major portion is
done by hand. The dough is mixed in
large troughs. after which ii is thrown
into a large box machine and we'll
worked" Each of these machines will
hold six barrels of flour at time After
the dough is worked into the proper
shape 1t Is sent along to a force of men,
who cut and work it into loaves nineteen
ounces in weight. Each loaf must be
weighed on the scale before going to the
ovens. After baked it must weigh at
least eighteen ounces.
1t is very interesting to watch the
bakers make up the ioaves. This Is ac-
compltshed with the use of a knife,
which the men handle with Hghtning-like
rap.dity. After the dough is made into
a rou-representing a lsaf-one dozen are
placed in bake PAM and carried by a
strong boy to the ovens. If the oven is
In proper working order a pan of bread
can be baked in thirty minutes This
operation continued from morning untn
night. and from night until morning. At !
ter the bread Is baked 1t is carried from
the oven and laid upon a long ware |
house floor. where it cools Later the |
bread is stacked up in huge piles and is |
sued to the various regimental commis- |
sary officers
Since the bakery has been in operation
very man at Camp Thomas has received
| loaf of fresh bread every day. The
'read is Of very fine quality and whole
'ome. The -four is furnished by a local
mill. which has a contract to furnish 200
'arre,s a day.

There are so many divergent views
as to what the future government of
the Islands should be as there are who
will or will not arrive at the King
dom Ct Heaven. Some organizations
want one thing, some another; some
want a modification in the labor law;
some want the franchise restricted;
some want it unrestricted; some want
no more asiatic labor, even japanese,
which the United States have spe-
cial treaty with, and some want Ash
attic labor and special exemption for
the Islands; others want the shipping
laws modified, and again others do
not. One is reminded of the Tower of
Babel, or better perhaps of the cele-
brated picture which the Athenian
painter put up in the market place
asking every one to put a chalk mark
upon anything he did not approve Of
Before midday the picture had disap-
peared. 1t was all dead white. The
painter washed off the chalk and
made no change in the picture. The
probability is that the Commission
will decide very much as had been de.
cided upon before it left Washington
Honolulu is placing too many chalk
markS
