Fails to See the President, Who Was
Engaged With the Cabinet.
Rear Admiral Schley called at the White
House yesterday, but was unable to see the
President owing to the fact that it was the
regular day for the Cabinet meeting and
the members were already present. The
rear admiral left the White House with the
understanding that he would call again
soon.
He declined to make any statement re-
garding tie visit, but in reply to a ques-
ticn said: "Of course / shall go to the
South Atlantic station or wherever else
may be ordered" Friends of Admiral
Schley, with whom he has talked frankly
within the last twenty-four hours, say that
the admiral had firmly expressed his in
tention to say nothing to the President
by the way of protest against his assign
ment. He said further, that the Maryland
ers who called on the President Monday
and made a protest in his behalf did so
without his knowledge. Rear Admiral
Schley said yesterday that if a change was
to be made in his contemplated assignment
he did not know 1t.

And now Newport society is saying a

who has recently come all the way from
Austria to attend the wedding of Miss Grant
TO Prince Cantacuzene, who is his very in
innate friend. This nobleman is about
twenty-five years old, tall, athletic and
debonaire. The American" joke serenada
was entirely of his own designing, helped
out by Mr.. Barton Milling and Mr. Clews.
1t IS said that he is immensely wealthy,
with fine estates near Vienna. and there
isn't a more popular visitor at Newport or
one who tries harder to please. This very
fortunate gentleman was guest at the din
ner-dance given the other night at Newport
by NJ. G. Deschamps, of the French diplo-
matte service, and when the musicians
struck up an Austrian gavotte the patriotic
nobleman was so delighted that ne drew
from his pocket a roll of $40 bills and
futtered them among the players. Nat
urally," writes special" who seems to
know all the details, the men were little
excited by the shower of crisp greenbacks.
but after they had shaken one another and
found that they were really awake, and had
also observed that the money was real they
finished their selection under some en-
baTrassment the dance, of course having
been completely interrupted by the counts
show of generosity, which caused a fiutter
ending in round of applause for the young
nobleman. AS 1t happened that the bills
did not quite go around among the men, the
count tore several of large denomination
in two, SO that every man should receive
his share of the token of appreciation of the
playing"
They certainly must have amazingly fine
times in Newport-if the very lively re-
ports from there be even half way true.

Teaching Children Good Manners,

Good manners cannot be learned
in moment. There are certain
forms which society has agreed peo-
pie must conform to if they wish to
appear well bred, and are often not
at all what the natural inclination
would prompt one to do under the
circumstances. Children must be
taught these conventionals and we
must not be surprised if they are
sometimes slow in learning them,
nor despair if after much teaching
they OF times relapse into native
barbarism. Patient perseverance
in training them will at last produce
the desired result. The constant
repetition that seems so irksome,
combined with the silent force OF
daily example, will effect the end
in view, a well-bred child Feb.

A business man Of Philadelphia
told me the other day that Mr.
Wan1maker's profits from his Phil
adelphia store last year were ovel
81 $50, 900 and those from his New
York establishment will run close
to that figure, says w. K. Curtis in
a Washington special to the Chica-
90 Record. The Saturday before
Christmas the receipts in New
York were even greater than those
in Philadelphia and exceeded $780,
600. The New York store has paid
profit from the very day it was
opened, although two firms which
occupied the establishment since A.
L. Stewards death have failed
The reason of Mr.. Wanamaker' s
great success, bo,h in New York
and Philadelphia, is his skillful and
extensive advertising. 1t has beer
his rule to confine his advertising tc
newspapers and magazines, on
which he has spent annually more
than 100000 in Philadelphia.
The advertising bills OF his New
York establishment exceeded even
that sum last year.

THE SIPLE TRIAL.
II Cost the Taxpayers OF Pike County
Nearly Twenty-Five Hundred
Pound OnIlars

Deputy Clerk Will Walter has
figured out the exact cost of the ST.
pie trial, which ended in this Court
last week.
The allowances made and paid by
Daviess county, which must be re-
funded by Pike county, amounts to
1,S4S 50. In ad dlition to this ex.
pert fees of $3.50 to DIR. Link, $5C
to DR.. Rice, $50 to DR.. Kline and
$50 to Pref. Smith, the chemist,
are allowed, which are paid directly
by Pike county. Counting these
the cost would swell to 81, ,12S.65.
The witnesses who came here to
testify and paid their expenses,
spent at least $500. Private parties
paid the attorneys for the
$500, and. the defend
ants attorneys, all Of them. were
retained at 81 600 at least. So TAX
ing all in all the cost of sending
Frank Siple to prison for life is
over 81 900. OF this amount Pike
county must pay 81 l2S 90 as stated
before.
Criminal trials come high but we
must have them, Washington Ga

Rev. Augustus FaIIey. 0. S B., Called to
q Higher Charge,

Rev. Augustus Falley, O. S. b.,
pastor Of st. Mary's church of this
city, succumbed to the ravages of
pneumonia, at his home Thursday,
at one o'clock p. M, after brief
illness. He was taken with an at
tack of Ia grippe, which merging in
to pneumonia caused his death.
His illness was of such a short
duration that very few were aware
of its seriousness before the an
nouncement Of his death was made
known. Father Falley was broad,
liberal minded man and had made
many warm friends among our cit
izens outside of his church circle.
By the members of his church he
was loved and revered. His death
will be severe blow to them.
He was a man of culture and was a
student at both Notre Dame and St.
MeinrBd colleges, being graduate
of the latter institution.
He was born in Lafayette, Ind,
Sept. u, 1852, and was ordained
priest on Sept. %, 1873. He as
sumed the pastorate of st. Mary's
Oct. 5, 1890, and since then
his labors have all been consecrated
to the upbuilding Of his church and
to benefitting his people. When
such man, especially filling the
the holy calling that he did, is TAX
en-, it is but natural to wonder how
it will be possible to fill his place
either in the church or as a citizen.

As the Sun has before stated /,
Gen. Miles sinned in that he has
said things that may interfere with
the business abroad of certain
American meat packers. 1t has
been intimated by officials in Wash
ington and consuls abroad that
even though he knew the meat to
be bad, he should have held his
tongue in the interest of commerce.
A more brutal or shameful propo-
sition could not be conceived, and
the men guilty of it deserve the ex-
ecration of the American public.
1t is undoubtedly true that the
meat was bad. The packers were
unquestionably not prepared to fur
nish on short notice, the immense
supply demanded by the govern
ment at the outbreak of the Spanish
war. In order to meet this demand
they unquestionably packed and
forwarded beef that was not fit to
pass human lips. They are indig-
nant now because they were found
out and exposed.
The government should 90 to the
bottom OF this matter, and, in the
meantime, it should give General
Miles vot, of thanks for the in
formation he has given.-IndIana-

Representative Eichhorn and his
democratic brethren have again
burned the iron into the republican
majority. Eichhorn is about the
most exasperating thorn in the
flesh that the 60. p. OF Indiana has
had for moon or two. His pro-
posed amendment TO the bill p,o-
viding for a pension for Mrs. Nor
ton, to include Mrs. Chase, placed
the republican majority in most
unpleasant position. If it is true
that Gov. Morton died leaving his
his family with property which has
since been dissipated, then Mrs.
Chase is as much entitled to con-
sideration as Mrs. Morton. Her
condition is certainly pitiable.
While the idea of a civil pension
list is incompatible with modern
notions in Indiana, small pension
for the needy families of those who
have well served the state is not
asking too much from the treasury.
1t is pity that the republican ma
jority could not have contrived a
more delicate manner of declining to
treat Mrs. Chase's case with con
sideration. There was about it a
tinge of rufliansim that doesn't APP
peal to the finer sympathies.-

A comparison of methods of work
which is being carried on practically
side by side gives a practical object
lesson, which does not tell to the advan-
taGe Of the tramway company. on
King street the company is at work
Just round the corner on Alakea, be
tween King and Hotel, the sewerage
contractors are at work. On the tram
ways job eleven Cinnamon and a
sleepy luna, are slowly crawling
along on their work and at the present
rate of progress, King street may be in
a chaotic state for some months to
come. On the sewerage work the men
have been as thick in the trench as it is
possible for them to work conveniently.
The contractors get as much work done
in an hour, as the tramway people in
a day. With proper force of men the
track could have been moved and the
road fixed up in few hours of a single
night. The hustle of the one set of
workmen, and the leisurely methods Of
the others is a striking comment upon
every thing that the antidiluvian and
out-of-date tramway company is for
ever doing.
