RARE ENTERTAINER
Who Leaves Feeling of Regret
 When She Finishes.

Of Mrs. Martha l.. Gielow, who ap- pears at Merrill Institute tonight. the Troy (N. Y) Chronicle says:
 Mrs. GieloW is one of the rare en- tertainers who leave a feeling of gen. uine regret when they have finished She is refined, and to the charm at tributive of the true southern woman has added the happy faculty of tall. ing dialect of the negro as it is spoken in the land of which she knows Her plantation lullabies, song of the cot ton-pickers, and camp-meeting songs, were cropped in a way that ought to shame the singer of the average com ic negro composition. She can also tell a story we'll, never losing the point, yet never pressing it. She credits the audience with having wit enough to find the joke without the aid of a chart and compass. Would there were more like her.

 At Lulu. Miss. few weeks ago, I ear was robbed of about S400 worth of goods and other robberies have been committed along the Illinois Cea tral road south of Memphis Mr. Le- hon caused the arrest of Ryan and Mahoney because he had reason to be. lieve they were connected with thc robbery and could give valua ble i:: formation to the officials of the road as to other people connected with tho same operations. The officers are sure that they got the right men. It ic likely that they will be tried in Mis- sissippi for grand larceny.

SHARP CONFLICT Expected Between President Roosevelt and the
 Senate. PRESIDENT HAS ANNOUNCED HIS UNALTERABLE DETER
 MlNATION
To Disregard Senatorial Reeommen. dations in Regard to Army
 Appointments.
TALK OF SENATE COMBINATION

Washington. Nov. 20.-Friends of the president now expect a conflict between the executive branch of the government and the senate unless the present drift is changed. There are experienced observers in Washington who say that the conflict cannot be avoided
 The principal bone of contention l.; the appointments which the president will have to make to the vacant brig adler generalships in the regular army, and army promtions in general Other appointments may be dragged in and furnish fuel tn the fire
 Secretary Root. at the request of the president, served notice on the politicians last Saturday that=no re- quests made by them regarding army appointments would be considered by him. and that importunities made by members of congress and others would be regarded as prejudcing the cases of those they were designed to help The plain intimation was made that the president regarded these in> portunities as annoying. and the an would count but the records of the men under consideration.
 This has raised a storm. Senators who read the announcement coNgd not believe it. They have been aceustom- ed to ask for army appointments and to receive them at the hands of pres idents from time immemorial Some of the senators who did not think that the views of the president had been reported accurately determined to test it. They therefore called and urged the claims of friends for the vacant and coveted promotions to be. brigadier generals.
 The president instantly told them that it was useless for them to mako any recommendations because he would go by the merit record, and for any senator or representative to push any particular candidate would be to niure his chances of consideration.
 The statement was made so emphat- ically that the senators have felt ir dignant and are doing much talking to the effect that the president is in ringing on the rights of the senate, because these appointments are to b. made by and with the consent Of tha senate.
 The position of the president ard Secretary Root are that ail army af fairs should be taken out of poitie5 and that the way to do il is tn ad hcre strictly to tho records in makine promotions In other words. the enesidert is determined that the rins of fsvoritetsm in the amg shall cease, and that officers de~e ie. of promo tion shall nat be aeuisd 5eeaQ4e soma one else less deserving has the inna ence of ! few soaatoss

LAUREL NEWS,
Not Many Opposed to National Guard
Encampment.


Special Correspondence of The Evening Star
LAUREL, Nd, June 13. 1901
Mayor Edward Phelps of Laurel was seen
last night relative to the proposed encamp-
ment of the District of Columbia National
Guard in this vicinity, and stated that the
proposed scheme met with the approval Of
most of the business men Of the place, but
that several influential citizens were op-
posed on the ground of possible annoyances
on the streets of the town. These citizens,
also, in the main, are satisfied with the
plan of having the encampment, believing
1t to be an excellent opportunity for ad-
vertising the town by means of the citizen
soldiery. Mayor Phelps is of the opinion
that no good can be done the town by con-
structing a barrier and keeping out many
who might be of inestimable service to
Laurel, especially at this time, when every
effort is being made by the board of trade
to induce outside people to locate here.
With the advent of the guardsmen 1t is
thought business will be given a boost and
1t is stated, ALL or the greater part of, the
business men of this town are in favor Of
the coming of the guard to this place.
An investigation was made some time ago
by members of the committee on publica-
tion Of the board of trade of this town
with regard to the use Of the mails by a
contemplated magazine. The result of the
inquiry has given the committee a severe
set back, from the fact that the publica-
tion would have to have bona fide sub
scription list Of 2, 500 in order to have 1t
sent through the mails under the head Of
'second-class matter. The question of Sc
curing the necessary number of subscribers,
1t Is thought by the members of the COM
mittee will be a serious obstacle A meet
ing Of the committee will be held in the
near future. and this subject will be given
careful consideration. The purpose Of the
magazine was to exploit the advantages Of
the town and vicinity, with view to hav-
ing manufacturers locate here.

New System of ventiIating.

The Navy Department will make a new
departure in ventilating warships by the
introduction on ships of the Denver class
of a system doing away with shafts run
ming along the bottom Of ships. The new
plan divides the ships into compartments,
each being ventilated from above by means
of electrical devices In this way the long
tubes in the hull Of ships are removed, the
compartments are made entirely inde-
pendent of each other. and a considerable
saving of space Is effected.
