DOGS BARRED FROM ENGLAND.
Regulations Tourists and Others
Must Conform tO-EnOrt to Pre-
vent Spread of Rabies.

People who are contemplating trip
abroad this summer, and who wish TO
travel with dogs, will be interested to
know that the importation of dogs into
Great Britain without a license is for
hidden. Application for license must
be made TO the secretary of the board
of agriculture, Whitehall place, Lon
don, 5. W., in time to permit the board
co inquire into the circumstances of the
application, etc, before the embarka-
ton of the dog takes place. Dogs will
be detained for six months under SUI
pervision of the authorities, on some
suitable private premises specified by
the owners. If the conditions imposed
are properly carried out the board will
consider applications, accompanied by
the certificates of veterinary surgeons,
that the dogs are not suspected of rab-
les, for their release after 90 days. Dogs
whose antecedents are unknown will be
subjected to longer period of deten-
ton.
In exceptional cases, the board will
entertain applications made by tele-
gram, on condition that full descrip-
toin of the dog be given and the place
in which he is to be detained specified.
For the convenience of persons pass
ing through Great Britain, the board in
special cases will authorize the landing
of dogs which are to be exported in
few days. In making applications for
such license the ports, Rames of the YES
sells, and dates of arrival and departure
must be specified, and the address of
some suitable place where the dog
can be detained during the period it
remains in Great Britain, which must
not exceed ten DAYS.

CHURCHES ORDER CHATS OFF"
Women in Columbus CO) Congrega-
items Must Remove Their
Headgear.

Hats off, is the order that must be
obeyed by the women as well as the
male worshipers in the three leading
churches of Columbus, Ca, Sunday
morning. The official boards of the
First Congregational, First Baptist and
Broad Street Methodist churches, the
most fashionable in the capital city,
held a meeting during the past week
and decided that the women must re-
move their headgear during services:
The women concede the wisdom of
the reform, but maintain that with a
large hat in their lap they are prevented
from leaning over in comfort or from
arising TO sing without seriously en-
dangering decorations on the hat. The
First Baptist church will meet the sit
uation by providing maid for the
women, relieving them of their hats
and wraps and checking them, such as
is done in theaters, while man will
look after the overcoats and hats of the
men.

A NATURAL BAR.
Wireless TeIegraphy, ns Far az Pres
ent Developments Go, Imprncti-
cable for Long Distances.

As result of conferences between
Prof. Bell, inventor of the telephone:
Prof. Moore, chief of the weather bu.
reau; Prof. MCGEE, of the National mu.
scum, and Col. Squires, of the army
signal corps, it has been decided that
so far as present developments of the
system of wireless telegraphy are con.
cerned, the process is not yet applicable
to practical work at any considerable
distances. 1t is believed something
might be done in the way of short-dis-
lance signals, but the earth's shape APP
parently interposes "a bar TO work over
long circuits, as the direct line between
two stations at any distance would
necessarily pass through solid ground.
Scientists are experimenting, and
have been for some time, but as yet
have not seen indications that tele-
graphing without wires has progressed
beyond the purely experimental stage,
although they look for new discoveries
and marked development in the future.

NEW coALIEG STATIONS.
Being Placed at Strategic Points So
as to Give United states Control of
Approaches to Gulf Of Mexico.

At the suggestion of Rear Admiral
Bradford, chief of the bureau of equip
ment, comprehensive scheme has
been adopted by the navy department.
under which coaling stations will be
placed at strategic points in the West
Indies, SO as to give the United States
control of the Virgin, Mona and Wind
ward passages and the approaches to
the Gulf of Mexico. 1t is proposed to
establish coaling stations at Culebra
island, lying between Porto Rico and
the Virgin islands at Mayaguez, which
lies on the Western shore of Porto Rico
and controls the Mona passage and at
Guantanamo on the south side of Cuba,
or at Nipe bay, on the northern coast,
either of which controls the Windward
passage. Coal sheds. and piers are al
ready in course of construction at Dry
Tortugas which will enable fleet OPP
Grating from that point to prevent an
enemy from entering either through
the Yucatan or Bahama channel.
Rear Admiral Bradford has just re-
turned from Dry Tortugas and Key
West, where he inspected the work of
construction which is being done under
the supervision of Rear Admiral Endi-
colt. Two coal sheds and piers are
being erected capable of accommodate
ing 10000 tons, and a channel is being
dredged around Fort jefferson 30 feet
deep and 500 feet wide, so that the
deepest draught battleship of the Amer
lean navy can go to that port and coal
The coast survey is making sur
veys to Culebra island and Por-
to Rico and the Eagle and Yank-
ton are doing similar work in Cuba.
The naval vessels are especially sur
veying Guantanamo and Nipe bay and
at the point best suited for the purpose
q coaling station will be established.

NAMES FOR WARSHIPS.
Twelve New Fighters Given Their
Cognomens by the Secretary
of the Navy.

Secretary Long has named the 10
ships which were authorized by the
last congress, and which will soon be
added to the navy. The three battle
ships are named the Pennsylvania,
New Jersey and Georgia.; the armored
cruisers, West Virginia, California and
Nebraska and the six protected
cruisers, Denver, Des Moines, Chatta-
nooga, Galveston, Tacoma and Cleve-
land. Heretofore only two battleships
were given the names Of states, but
now all ships of the frst-class are
named after the states. The armored
cruisers are first-class ships in every
respect and when launched will be
able to give good accounts of themselves
in contest with battleship, as they
are as heavy as the ordinary ship of
that class.
