BOY MAY DIE.
All Because City and County
Are Fussing About Care
of INDECENT Injured.

Claud McCarty, a IA year old boy is
lying at Christ hospital with a bullet
in his leg and because he did not re-
ceive proper attention complications
have set in and he may die
On November 4 he was shot just be-
low the knee. He lives alone with his
mother. Up to the time he was shot he
worked to help his mother in their sup
port. Because of the controversy be
tween the city and the county officials
as to who shall care for the INDECENT
sick and injured he was neglected and
that neglect is likely to cause either his
death or loss of his leg.
The boy was shot November 4 during
a quarrel with some cOlOred boys He
was taken to the home of his mother at
107 West Tenth street. The family is
poor and called for City Physician
Peers. The physician came and attend
ed the boy for a time until the city
council decided that the city was not
responsible in such cases. The boy
mother says that he stopped his visits
without giving any notice. The boy
grew worse and Mrs. McCarty called on
Police MatrOn Thorpe. Mrs. Thorpe
found the boy and his mother in need
and sent them supplies. She sent word
twice to County Physician Ellinger to
attend the boy. He did not call. Then
Mrs. Thorpe sent word to Poor Com
missioner Hale to send a physician. No
physician came. T9he boy had been
and the wound was growing worse
Mrs Thorpe then called on DR.. ROby
ana asked MIN TO look atUer the case.
THE boy was removed to Christ hOSpi-
tai and an examination with an X-ray
showed the bullet still in the boys leg.
The little fellow is greatly emaciated
and so weak that he could not survive
the operation of having the bullet re-
moved. He is in a very precarious con-
ditiOn and may die.
Prompt attention would undoubtedly
have saved the boy from his present
condition. It is either the duty of the
city or the county physician to care for
the sick and injured who have not the
means to employ a physician. This con-
tinual wrangle between the county and
city should be settled.

NEW WORKERS VEXED.
at Admiral Dewey For Giving Away
His Home.

New York, Nov. 21-Charles H. Nj
coll, secretary of the conmittee for
perpetuating in marble, the plaster arch
at Madison Square. known as the
Dewey arch,'' said today that he de-
sired to call public attention to the
desire of the committee that the arch
should be known and spoken of as the
Navy arch"
Mr.. NicoIl said:
IF people keep on making the mis-
take that this is a Dewey arch the ac-
tion of Admiral Dewey in giving away
the nations gift may have some ef-
feet on the subscriptions to the arch
fund. But we have been trying as
gracefully as we could and we shall
simply have to keep on trying without
doing it too abruptly to emphasize the
fact that it is a navy arch, a national
monument that we intend, not to be
erected in honor of a single individual,
but one that shall stand for all time
as a, testimony of our appreciation of
the glorious deeds of the navy, from
the time of Decatur and Paul Jones
until now"

OFFICIAL NOTICE.
Given Through a Proclamation by the
President.

Washington, Nov. 21.-Sergeant-at-
Arms Bright of the senate has been in
communication with the vice presi-
dents private secretary during the
greater part of the day but at noon the
hour for the funeral had not been def
initely fixed. 1t was stated however.
that the interment would certainly take
place at Paterson and it was believed
it would occur Saturday afternoon.
When the time is definitely fixed, ar
TangementS will be made for the proper
presentation of the senate at the cere-
mOny.
The flags over the public buildings
were half masted early in the day. Be
yOnd this were no outward evidences
of mourning and no drapings, as a law
of congress has put an end to the for
mer practice of draDing the public
buildings on the death of an executive
officer All the executive departments
will be closed on the day of the fun
eraL Attorney General Griggs left this
afternoon for Paterson. He goes as the
personal representative of the president
and cabinet and will arrange with the
family of Mr.. Hobart for the funeral.
The entire matter is left in his hands,
50 far as the official features of the GER
emony are concerned.
After the cabinet meeting the presi-
dent issued the following prOclama-
ton:
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNI
TED STATES-A PROCLAMATION.
To the People of the United States:
Garret Augustus Hobart, vice presi-
dent of the United States died at his
home in Paterson, n. J., at $50 o'clock
this morning. In him the nation has
lost one of its most illustrious citizens
and one of it's most faithful servants.
His participation in the business life
and the laW-making body of his native
state was marked by answering fdeli-
ty and by a high order of talents and
attainments; and his too brief career as
vice president of the United States and
president of the senate exhibited the
1oftieSt qualities of upright and Sagac-
iOuS craftsmanship. In the world of af-
fairs, he had few equals among his
contemporaries. His private character
was gentle and noble. He will long be
mOurned by his friends as a man of
singular purity and attractiveness
whose sweetness of disposition won all
| hearts while his elevated purposes, his
unbending integrity and whole hearted
devotion to the public good deserved
and acquired universal respect and
esteem.
In sorrowing testimony of the loss
which has fallen upon the country I di-
rect that on the day of the funeral the
executive offices of the United States
shall be closed and all stations of the
army and navy shall display the ma
tiOnal flag at half mast and that the
| representatives of the United States in
| foreign countries shall pay appropriate
| tribute to the illustrious dead for per-
/ iOd of 80 days.
1t witness whereof, I have set my
| hand and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed.
| ISeal.l
| Done at the city of Washington this
! 21st day of November in the year of our
! Lord, one thousand eight hundred and
! ninety-nine and of the Independence of
! the United States the one hundred and

| By the president,
! JOHN HAY, Secretary of State.

MAIL ORDERS SHIPPED PROMPTLY.
CENSUS CLERKSHIPS.
Examinations Being Conducted In
Topeka Today.

The United States circuit court room
on the third floor of the federal build
ing presents a busy scene today. Twen-
ty-three brains are working their ut
most and twenty-th three pens are re-
cOrding their thoughts. It is the eX-
animation for places in the census
bureau at Washington.
The examination is given under the
direction of John H. CARRIER, chief census
examiner OF the bureau, who gives all
the examinations for census positions,
except two or three on the Pacific coast.
The examination Will last for three
days, but a. different class of applicants
will be examined each day Twenty
three applicants are taking the eX
animation today, another twenty-three
will be examined tomorrow, and the
remainder, ten or twelve perhaps, will
take the examination on Thursday.
Examinations are given only in nine
cities in the United States aside from
the two or three on the Pacific coast.
Mr.. CARRIER has thus far conducted eX-
aminatiOns at Lansing, Mich, Cincin-
natl, Chicago, st. Paul and Omaha.
From Topeka, he goes to St. Louis, New
Orleans and Atlanta.
The places for which these applicants
are being examined are clerkships in
the bureau at Washington The sal
aries of these places range from $12O
to $1,000, with a chance for promotion
to one OF the higher clerkships, but the
chances are not very favorable. There
are 10 clerkships at $500, Is at $1,000,
and 20 at 81, 400. These places are all
gained through merit.
1t is commonly supposed that census
bureau clerkships viii not last more
than two years, but there is a pOssibili-
ty that they become permanent.
I find that there is a disposition on
the part of a great many congressman
and senators to make the census bureau
a permanent institution, said Mr..
CARRIER today. 1T is an enormous -un-
dertaking to organize the bureau every
decade, as has to be done under the
present arrangement. With the bureau
a permanent institution the framework
could be preserved from one census to
another and it could be made much
more efficient and accurate. The enOr-
nifty of the undertaking to enroll 75,-
! 0O0 900 people can scarcely be conceived.
1t requires an army of organized men
to do it.
'I consider the director of the census
the most important officer in the gov
ernment today, next to the president
and secretary Of state. The appOrtiOn-
ment for congressional representation
depends on the accuracy with which he
does his work He has about so, 600
! places under his patronage, and there
I is much that 6eF5ends upon how thor
Oughly he effects his Organization.'

Guiding Congressman Clayton of Ala

Colonel of Twentieth Kansas
Says There is No Truth
In Charges.

Kansas City, Mo, Nov 21.-A dis

says:
when General Metcalf was seen at
Elyria, twenty-five miles from here, to-
night, where he is visiting, he said:
I understand that the affidavit pre-
sented by Hall were merely signed "A
Soldier That kind of an affidavit is
not paid any attention to- The matter
with Hall is that he did not get a pro-
motion. There is nothing in the charge
at all
The whole story was investigated
last spring by the Manila army author
tiles and by Dean G. Worcester. a mem
Der of the Philippine cOmriissiOn. At
that time the charges were found to be

the war department are surprised to
hear OF the charges made against Colo

opinion is entertained in army circles.
Secretary Root expressed the belief
that the charges were not true, but said
he had no Information regarding the
matter, of which he had not heard any
thing until given the press report In
view of the high rank of the officer and
OF the explicit account regarding the
