DEWEY AND GERMANY.
Though DispIeased with Arrogance
at Manila, He Was MisuuOted

LONDON. Aug. 2-The Daily News
and the Standard, this morning, print
Vienna dispatches saying that people
who met Admiral Dewey are convinced
of the incorrectness of the interview re-
Gently printed in a New York paper, in
which the admiral was made to say:
Our next war will be with Germany
They say that Admiral Dewey not only
said nothing pointing to strained reIa-
tons between the United States and Ger
many, but even denied that Capt Cogh-
lan's words could possibly have been
based on anything, which he Dewey
had said, as Capt Coghlan had never
been in his company
On the other hand Admiral Dewey does
not conceal the displeasure he feels over
the arrogant conduct of the Germans in

on the Interpretation of the Anglo Rus
sian treaty of 1925, defining the boundary
and explaining Great Britafn's position
with considerable detail, saying:
The colonial office is not aware that
the United States has offered Canada a
port on the Lynn canal" and adding that
1t was mot correct to state that Lord
Salisbury's government was hampered
by Sir Wilfrid Laurier''
John Anderson, c. M. G., principal clerk
of Joseph Chamberlain secretary of state
for the colonies, says no such statement
has been issued by the colonial Office to
the representative of the news agency,
and ABSOLUTELY no particulars in regard to
the Alaskan question have been given to
the representative of that agency, which
has, therefore, used the authority of the
British colonial office entirely without
warrant.

There is no hair restorer in this Office,
and has not been for some weeks. I'm

Fletcher.
We'll, that beats the old Harry. Here
is an advertisement which I picked up

The visitor read Mr.. FIetcher's card
and then politely excused himself, saying
he would find that hair restorer if it

Mr.. Fletcher says he has been taken
for a man of almost every profession,
but that that was the first time he was
ever taken for a hair restorer.

EIGHT HOURS A DAY.
Decision by Government That Will
Interest WOrkingmen Generally.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-The navy de-
partment has rendered a decision con-
corning the eight hour law that will be
OF Importance to all labor interests, as
well as to government contractors
The com1nandant of the Washington
navy yard recently asked authority from
the department to permit the contractor
who is building the new. gun shops in
the yard to employ his workmen ten
hours per day. In support of this appli-
cation it was stated that during the
progress of the work the operation OF the
machinery was to be stopped and the
floor was being damaged by exposure to
rains
The judge advocate generals depart

doctrine in the construction of this law as

Canadian Premier and the president
to Have 81 Conference.
HOTEL CHAMPLAIN, N. Y, Aug. l.
The news that there is a prospect of a
conference between President Mckinley
and Premier Laurier, of Canada, on the
VeXed question of the Alaskan boundary
caused much discussion here today. It
was announced here last night that
Premier Laurier will visit Hotel Cham
plain for stay of a couple of weeks
after the Canadian parliament adjourn
ed, which will be in about a week
This will Obviate the necessity for a
meeting of the president and the premier
at some point near the Canadian line.
President Mckinley refuses to discuss
the matter, but the fact that the premier
is coming here during his visit affords
ample confederation to the statement
made upon high authority that the con-
ference will be held.

such as necessarily exist to q greater or
lesser degree whenever work of the char
acter referred to is in progress, the de-
partment is of the opinion that the case
cannot be regarded as one of extra
ordinary emergency. In cases of this
character 1t would appear that if the
public property cannot be sufficiently pro-
tected from damage otherwise, the proper
remedy would be to employ a force Of
men in relays, by which means the work
could be expedited much more effective

AT THE PATTON GRAND.

There are few authors who possess
 the faculty of blending the elements j of humOr and pataos So happily as Bret Harte, and few to whom the aIt l Of expression comes so easily and ] spontaneously. Bret Harte's romances
 of the mining camp have made his
 name 8 ~,OusehoId word with the Eng fish baking race. Tennessee $
 aHdner is enc of his most popular stories. The comedy-drama of the same name, which was suggested to the dIamatist by Hartes celebrated sketch will be presented at the Patton
 Grand Wednesday evening. February
 8. One need only witness the produc- ten of this charming play to be as sured that the drama does not depend upon the popularity of the novel for it's success. It is 6 strongly written C0medy-drama and one that possesses
 sufficient merit tC enable 1t to be it's
 own champion. The story of the play
 ia interesting and is told in pleasing manner, the characters are dawn from
 real life and the language in which it
 is told of good idiomatic English with
 here and there touches of poetic
 beauty. The love of a good man for 2
 woman with a past that is possibly net without repTOach. is strongly set forth,
 and not less effective is her love for him-a love that awakens in her ? de- sire to atone for her past by an honest life in years to come Equally felici- tous is the portrayal of the friendship that had existed for . long time be- tween two men and into which she brought the first discordant note. There is @ happy feature introduced in the native artlessness of the orphan, Little Tennessee" and her !@ve for her daddy and for the man she chooses for her 'pard The comedy element is quite pronounced and the production has so many good things in it that it is no exaggeratiOn to declare it one of the best comedy dramas re- gently produced. The company com prises fourteen players, mostly all the originals in their respective characters, who have been retained for the third successive season with this production.
