Johns -DeatOn Foot Race.

Our contemporary, Mr.. Johns, is
securing an enviable record as a foot
racer and is now willing to meet all
aspriants for the championship.
Following his success in the race
against Mine Host Fay of the Lew
istown, he met the winner of the
'Holzemer-D eaton race last Friday
evening and easily distanced Mr..
Deaton. Mr.. Johns was In better
form on this occasion and in a run
OF two squares along Main street
quite left Mr.. Deaton. The affair
was the outcome Of an argument
(rather one-sided it would appear)
concerning Mr.. Johns veracity, and
touching Mr.. DeatOn's honorable
course In the municipalcontest. The
lie had been passed down Mr.. Johns
throat) and a fresh start was made
when the belligerents met again I'm
front OF the Day House. This time
the editor appealed to his nimble
feet to save him and when he saw
the outlines of a neck yoke In the
hands Of Mr.. Deaton he stood not
upon the order of his going, but
went, and for q few moments the
bystanders thought he imagined
himself trying to reach third base
and that he would have to slide for
1t. The noise OF the rings on theneck
yoke rang In his ears as well as a
few remarks which had passed and
he did not turn to look around until
he had gotten well started up Fifth
avenue. Meantime the assembled
crowd were shaking their sides with
Laughter and doubtful friends urged
the heavyweight champion to greater
speed. Not until late the next morn
Ing was he seer on NJ ain street and
then only after several moments
spent In peeking around the or
ner to see II the ex-sherlff was In
sight.

BRITISH NAVAL ESTIMATES.

LONDON, March 9-The Times this
morning says: I'VE understand that
the navy estimate will show an increase
for the ensuing year of nearly $1,000
900 over last years total and Will
reach almost e26000,00O 1t is propos-
ed to add between 1000 and 5000 men.
The largest share of the increased ex-
penditure, however, is for ship build
ing, repairs and the like"
Commenting editorially on the fore
going rather startling statement, =
the Times says: 1T is pretty clear
that Sir Michael Hicks Beach, the
chancellor of the exchequer, will have
an admirable opportunity to display
his powers as a constructive financier,
and we only hope that he will rise to
the occasion. But, he positively must
not seek a further increase in the al
ready oppressive income tax"

Naloios which our reconnoitering par
ties have reached, and desire protection
OF Americans. News from Nasayan ISL
and more encouraging every day
1t is argued at the department that
the Filipinos have never been used to
the kind of warfare that the Americans
have given them, and for that reason
they are now aware that il will be i'm
possible for them to accomplish any
thing by fighting. While there is dis
appointment because the movement for
the capture of a large force of the Fill
pinos was not successful, it is believed
the pressing of the insurgents steadily
toward the north, capturing their CAPT
tol and driving them from place to place
has had a very discouraging effect upon
the natives who have been following
Aguinaldo.
1t is evident by the reference which
General Otis makes to accommodating
parties that he is having the country
thoroughly covered and that the infor-
nation which they are giving him is
the basis of the dispatch 1t is believed
that assertions will soon deplete the
army of Aguinaldo to little or nothing
That portion of the dispatch relating to
the Visayans refers to the operations OF
which Iloilo is the base. The group i'll.
cludes Panay, Bohol, Cebu. Negros and
others of less importance The rebellion
against the United States authority was
not very serious in these islands.
