PLANS "IDEAL" NEWSPAPER.
Parkhurst Behind Movement to Es-
tabIish n Paper That Can Afford
to Tell the Truth.

DR.. Parkhurst declares that men of
riches have under consideration the es-
tablishment in New York city of ian
ideal" newspaper. He declares that an
endowedtheater is also possibility for
New York. "At the present time" he
is quoted as saying, there are those
who are anXiously considering the mat
ter of establishing journal for the pur-
pose of telling the truth and sufficiently
capitalizing it SO that it will have no
trouble in telling the truth. In a GER
tain respect the newspapers are like
our theaters. 1t has come to be fact
in the city of New York; have it from
those who are constant attendants at
the theaters-that theater, as a rule,
cannot be made to pay unless there is
more or less of that in it which is obiec-
tionable. The only way in which a
first-class theater can be maintained is
by its being endowed. Now the same
words apply TO the average newspaper.
The papers now are run on business
plan. They are not leading the public.
Some papers are run for political ends.
because with them politics is going to
put money into the TILL"

KAISER HAS A NEW BARBER
Dismisses His Former Attendant
Because of Undue Fa-
milIariIy.

Emperor Williams barber, Francois
Haby, the inventor of his majesty's
style of mustache, recently ventured
to remark:
"What does your majesty think Of
China?"
This so ruffled the emperor's tenn
per that, taking Haby by the ear, he
escorted the barber from his cham
ber. The incident has been laughed
at throughout Berlin.
Apparently Francois Haby has re.
turned to grace only to be again cast
down, for it was announced May, 10
last that it was frequently remarked
during the then recent festivities that
his majesty's mustache was no longer
turned upward so fiercely as formerly,
but worn at an angle of 45 degrees only,
with the ends no longer spreading out
proudly"
1t was added that it was fact that
the emperor had abandoned his former
fashion of wearing his mustache, al
though all male Germany adhered to
1t, one reason being the dismissal of
Haby, who had "become impudent and
had presumed to trade upon his alleged
friendly relations with the emperor"

WILL REVoLUTIONIZE LONDON,
Plans Network of Suburban Electric
Lines with Groups of Low
Rent Houses.

Charles Yerkes' plan of a compre-
hensive system of underground rail
ways in London is the first deliberate
effort to grapple with the housing pro-
gramme of the English metropolis, and
if he can succeed in his dream he will
revoiutionize the life of London and
earn the undying gratitude of British
workmen.
His idea is to have complete net
work of lines radiating north, south,
east and west to considerable distances
from the heart of the metropolis. and
then to have workmen's cottages built
in healthy districts served by railways.
This is a tremendous scheme, but Mr..
Yerlles is also said to be interested in
a scheme for cutting a ship canal from
Southampton to London, a distance of
Just so miles.

PLAN TO REMOVE THE MAINE.
Objections Made to the Use of Dyna-
mlte-COfTer Dam to BE
built.

Captain of the Port Young has asked
the government to refuse any and all
proposals looking to the removal of the
wreck of the United States battleship
Maine by explosives. Last year three
firms offered TO remove the hull of the
battleship in return for the material,
but there has always been a strong OBJ.
lection to the use of dynamite, because
of the probability that there are por-
tions of bodies still in the wreck, and
the authorities shrink from the idea
of desecration.
A scheme has been submitted involv-
ing the construction of a Golfer dam,
the pumping out of the water and
taking of the wreck apart in pieces;
and work on this line will probably be-
gin next month.

M'KINLEY TO GET BIG TURKEY
Rhode Island Man Securing State for
Bird for Presidents Thanks
giving Day Dinner.

For number of years the table of
the president of the United States has
been annually graced Thanksgiving day
by big Rhode Island turkey. Some
where in the southern part of the
commonwealth there is to-day hand
some specimen of this famous breed of
bird strutting about the farmyard in
the pride of it's 35 pounds which few
days before the national holiday will be
decapitated, carefully dressed, and dis
patched to the white house for Presi-
dent McKinley's dinner.
The late Senator Anthony, of Rhode
Island, sent the first Rhode Island tur-
key to a president, and after his death
the late Senator Nathan F. Nixon con-
tinued the custom. Since Senator Dix
on's death Horace Vose has annually
sent to the white house at Ihanksgiv-
ing the handsomest bird of the species
he could find within the borders of the
state. The biggest one ever presented
to president was given to President
Grant. 1t tipped the scales at 3s
pounds.

WANTS LAW CHANGED
Corbin Claims Unjust Discrimina-
tion Against West Pointers.
Enlisted Men Eligible to Promotion
to Commissions After Two Years
West Pointers Are Obliged
to Serve Four Years.

Adit. Gen. Corbin, according to a
New York Tribune special from Wash
ington, has started a movement to
statute books law that makes an
unjust discrimination against West
Pointers in the army. 1t is almost
ineXplicable, the adiutant says, that
such legislation should ever have
been enacted or have remained in
force for ~ years as that which favors
the promotion of enlisted men to
commissions above the young men
specially educated at government eX-
pense to fill commands.
In his current annual report Gen,
Corbin devotes considerable space to
the act of June IS 1878, which pro-
Vided for the promotion to the grade
of commissioned officer of meritorious
non-commissioned officers who shall
be found morally, intellectually and
physically qualified for promotion,
and the act of July 80, 1892, which ex-
tends to all unmarried soldiers under
80 years and possessing the requisite
VIC Pl ~ llN &c VI Soihl'N'-
ing at prescribed examinations for
commissions.
That the law operated well in at
tracing to the ranks a superior class
of intelligent young men was demon
strated by the yearly increasing mum.
Der who obtained admission into the
commissioned branch of the army.
There were six in 1893, and 6S in 1900.
These men were compelled to serve
in the ranks only two years under the
law, and, calling attention to this
fact, Gen. Corbin says: Experience
has shown that two years is too brief
period in which enlisted men can
fit themselves for the important
duties of commissioned officers. 1t is
only little less than travesty to say
that man can qualify as an officer
by serving as an enlisted man in one
half the time required for cadet to
complete his course at West Point. 1t
is recommended that the law be
amended to read four years instead
of two. This will put appointments
from the ranks and the military
academy on the same footing"

KNOCKS A HORSE DOWN.
w. X. Vnnderbilts Auto in Collision
with Fish Wngon-Promises
Driver New Horse.

William X. Vanderbilt, Jr., had a
narrow escape from serious injury
the other afternoon in a collision with
fish wagon. He was making his way
west through Fifty-frst street. bound
for spin up the road. He had just
reached Fifth avenue when strong
gust of wind swept up the street, and,
catching the light locomobile, almost
lifted it off it's wheels.
At this moment John Lullman, of
102 East Eighty-second street. drove
down the avenue in fish wagon.
Mr.. Vanderbilt struggled to get his
locomobile clear of the wagon, but
he could not manage it, and he ran
into the horse, sending the animal to
the pavement.
The locomobile was instantly
stopped and Mr.. Vanderbilt quickly
jumped out.
81 am sorry" he said, apologetical-
ly to the driver. 'It was my fault.
Here is my card. If you want an
other horse call at my house and I'll
get one for you"
Lullman at first was inclined to say
unpleasant things, but when he read
the name on the card look of blank
astonishment spread over his coun-
tenance.
THAT'S all right, Mr.. Vanderbilt"
he stammered. 81 don't think the
nags much hurt. Just a little bit
scraped on the legs. But I'll tell the
boss He knows you're good for a
horse, 1 guess"

DRYING PREPARATIONS simply
develop dry catarrh; they dry up the
secretions which adhere to the mem
brane and decompose, causing a far
more serious trouble than the ordinary
form of catarrh. Avoid all drying in

soothes and heals. Ely's Cream Balm

An AIpIne Garden.

AT Schachensee, in the Bavaran Alps,
at an elevation of 800 meters, an
Alpine garden has been laid out and
planted by a foreman of the Munich
Botanical garden, The plan and out
line of the work were furnished by
Prof. Gobel. The land is the property
of the crown. 1t is intended next year
to build blockhouse and furnish it
with the necessary comforts for the
use of scientific visitors. Alpine gar.
dens already exist near Innsbruck, in
the Dauphiny, in Italy, and on the
Maritime Alps. This Bavarian garden
will be the means of rescuing the finest
Alpine plants from destruction.
