NO MARTIAL.
President and Long Will
Not Call One For
Schley.

Washington, Nov. 81. - President Nc
Kinley and Secretary Long agreed yester-
day that, as Rear Admiral Schley had
not seen fit to ask for a court Of inquiry
it was not expedient to appoint one, and
therefore the formal orders sending Schley
to command the South American station
at Rio. by the ordinary Atlantic route,
were signed by Secretary Long and
mailed to the rear admiral on the Chicago
at New York.
gladly have given Rear Admiral Schley
the privilege of clearing his record or at
tempting to do so, before court of in
quiry, called for by himself, according to
the custom of the navy when an officer
has been accused officially of ''reprehen-
sible conduct" but, although Rear Ad-
miral Schley has been advised by brother
officers to ask for such a court, he has
not done SO. Finding this to be the case,
a number of public men have advised Sec
rotary Long and the president to order a
court of inquiry upon the attacks which
the navy department and the navy.
But the president and Secretary Long
concluded, after due consideration, that
1t would be unwise to dignity these at
who made them would attack any court
that might be appointed, and unless It's
verdict was entirely satisfactory to
as bitterly and unfairly as ever. Besides,
they reflected that the facts are all mat
tiers of official record now and had al
ready been presented to the senate in the
official reports of the officers commanding
the vessels in Cuban waters during the
war.
Rear Admiral Schley has not been or
dered to go to South Africa, and if he
goes will do SO under his general authori-
ty, and by the south Atlantic route in
stead of the Mediterranean and Suez
route, which Admiral Howison took last
spring under direct orders from the de-
partment. No occasion has yet arisen for
our sending a squadron to South African
waters for the protection of American in

YALE'S WORK LIGHT.
Coachers Dislike to Run
Risk Of Injuring
Men.

New Haven, Conn, Nov. 21-The work
of the Yale foot ball men was almost ru-
dimentary today, so easy and light was
it. In fact, the regular varsity eleven
as lined up was not given any work ex-
cept going through signals and chasing
punts down the field. Mcbride and
Sharpe alternated in doing the punting.
Brown and Olcott the guarding Francis
and Stillman the tackling and Hubbell
and Snitzer the end work, were run down
the field in pairs, but were not permitted
to tackle the backs who caught the ball.
This work was kept up for 20 minutes,
perhaps, after half an hour of signal
practice in going through the ordinary
formations. The varsity men were then
taken over to help coach the freshman
eleven, which was sent through a lively
20 minutes of practice against the var
sity eleven substitutes. This part of the
days foot ball was full of comedy for
the freshman eleven was unable to make
any decent showing at all against the
heavy substitutes, who tore through at
will. 1t made good practice for the sub
stitutes, who were not permitted to work
against the varsity, but who, neverthe-
less, needed some work to keep them in
condition to fill the places of any regu-
lars who may have to retire from the
game next Saturday.
Coachers Hinkey, Bull, Hartwell, Muir
ply and Morris Ely were on hand and
assisted Head Coach Rodgers, They also
took a hand in the morning signal drill
of the varsity, am Awe also aided in
developing the ends of the varsity ag-
gregation. The coachers will probably
not send the regulars in for any more
really hard work, because there is no
need of risking injury to any of the regu-
lar eleven, and all feel that after the
game with Harvard, there Is not much
more foot ball for the players to learn.
The most that can be desired is to keep
the men well and in condition, and the
modicum of work that they are required
to do now is all that is necessary except
to perfect them in minor points of the
playing. such as following punts.

.M......--S SAYS:

For over twenty-five years I have
constantly been engaged in the active
discharge of my profession as physician
and surgeon. During that career I have
perfected an Alternative medicine, the
Favorite Remedy, upon the value of
which am willing to, and do stake my
personal and professional reputation"
"Favorite Remedy is the greatest dis
covery DIR. Kennedy has ever made"
1t is today a standard medicine with
thirty years of cures to its credit
Allow no one to deceive you with their
browning efforts, latest achievements or
brilliant fruits, counterfeits, limitations or
just as good. They are but experiments
and endanger your health,
Most physicians are ready enough to
give their services when a family is too
poor to pay, but it occasionally happens
that there is a proprietary medicine
which does all or more than a physician
could do.
I'VE know of only one such medicine
namely Dr. David Kennedys Favorite

ton and the sicknesses peculiar to wo-
men
Sufferers from these difficulties often
become SO discouraged as to have no
heart to take any more medicine. To
all such, DR.. Kennedy has only to say
that if he were personally called upon to
prescribe at all he would prescribe Fa-
vorite Remedy"
There are other proprietary medicines
in the market, made by a person with
the same name and initial as my own,
and have reason to believe that the
two are often COMPOUNDED in people s
minds, and that the other articles spoken
of have been substituted, either through
| accident or design. when the latter have
been asked for, or desired. To avoid this,
please ask for Dr. David Kennedy's Fa-
vorite Remedy, prepared in Rondout, N.

There are two proprietors of similar
names, but they are not connected or
associated in business. or otherwise.

ANOTHER OWNER,
Dewey's House Made
Over to Admiral's
Only Son.
GIFT OF NEWLY MADE BRIDE.
Kind and Delicate Act of
Former Mrs.
Hazen.
GIFT OF NEWLY MADE BRIDE.

Washington, Nov. 21.-George Good
win Dewey, Admiral Dewey's son, is
now owner of the residence presented
to the admiral by the American peo-
pie. Papers were signed early today,
by which Mrs. Mildred Mclean Dewey
transfers all right and title to the prop
erty known as 1747 Rhode Island ave-
nue., this city. to George Goodwin
Dewey.
This is the property which yesterday
Admiral Dewey transferred to Mrs.
Dewey, The papers making the new
transfer probably will be placed on file
tomorrow morning. In explanation of
the transaction, a relative of Admiral
DeWey's family made this statement to
the Associated Press
Admiral and Mrs. Dewey have trans
ferred to the formers son, George
Goodwin Dewey. the home presented to
the admiral by the people Of this coun-
try 1t will continue to be the home
Of the admiral and Mrs. Dewey so long
as he may live. 1t may be desirable
now to say that it was the wish of both
the admiral and Mrs. Dewey to provide
for proper succession to the property.
The transfer of today completes the
transaction begun yesterday, and is
the carrying out only Of the original
intention of both the admiral and Mrs.
Dewey. By all those interested in the
matter, the method of transfer adopted
was considered the best and safest that
could have been adopted. 1t is to be
considered, naturally, that the transfer
was to be the act of Mrs. Dewey, as
well as of the admiral. 1t was her
desire that she should release any
claims she might have to the property
through her marriage to the admiral
and to do this the transfer was made
through her to the admiral's son as soon
as was practicable. Through the
method adopted, no dispute ever can
arise over the disposition of the prop
erty"

CAPT. JOHN DAVIS.
Worcester Academy Foot Ball Men
Choose the Big Left Guard as Next
Years Leader.

Worcester Academy Foot Ball Men
Choose the Big Left Guard as Next
Years Leader.
John Davis will be captain of the
Worcester academy eleven next season.
He was the choice of the players for
the position after the team broke train
ing. Up to few days ago, they did
not know whether Davis would return
to school next year. but when he an
nounced he would, his election was
quickly determined upon. Davis, who
is known as big John Davis" on ac-
count of his size, has played left guard
for the team for two seasons. He is
one of the best men on the team, part
ly on account of his size and strength,
and partly because he knows the game
well and plays it hard. His coming
into school this season was delayed
until the students began to fear he
would not return at all.
He returned the day previous re
high school game, and he did much to
win that game. Since his return, the
team has played but three games, and
mas WOI IuGIll all. 1nGy were dBdluSL
high school, ale freshmen and Friends
school, and Davis did a considerable
portion of the playing. Next years
team will be a strong one, as nearly all
the players will return to the school.
With the advantage of this seasons
training, the team will have a good
start next fall. The team was slow
in learning the game, but improved
gradually, and was at its best in its
last game
Coach John Emory finished his task
Monday. He was successful with the
team, and had he been the first selec-
ton, the strength of the team would
have shown itself several weeks ago
instead of at present w. F. Donovan
was the first to coach the team. Mr..
Donovan who is athletic director at
the school, would make a good coach
If he could devote season to the game,
but he has never done so, and does not
pretend to be a coach in the strict sense
of the word. However, Mr.. Donovan
deserves much credit for keeping the
men in fine form, enabling them to APP
ply to the best degree the knowledge
OF the game they acquired from the
coach. Arthur S. Beale Of Harvard
was the first regular coach. He was
quarterback of the Harvard team a
rev years ago, and his selection was
warmly welcomed by academy stu
dents. But his work did not Justify
the hopes the students placed in him.
Mr.. Emory obtained much better re-
suits, and the team retires with good
reputation, even if it just escaped with
pare majority of games won.
