The PfesbYteIians had delightful pic
mic yesterday at Chautauqua Beach The

party Of about 2co Sunday school chill
dren, their parents and friends. Each OF
the afternoon trains swelled that number
considerably On their arrival at the
Beach pleasant places were located for
the day, and the woods and groves were
open TO the choice of places for the
Presbyterian contingent who were first
on the grounds. A pretty little Maypole
dance with graceful manouvres was exc

list OF the census for the State. The work
has been completed within the time limit

much elated over the result of their
labors. 1.-The Kent county figures will
not be changed. said Colonel Schley.
THE State officials have given the Fed
eral census officers every assistance pos

some of the Kent county people think
has been muddled. While we have
aided them in every way possible TO find

Not To Be a Naval Tex Book.

There were no developments yesterday
at the Navy Department Washington in
the matter Of permitting the Maclay book

A Merchants Rule.

An experienced and successful mer-
chant has related that when he first con-
ceived the idea OF pushing his business
into greater prominence he adopted sew
eral rules. Among other things he de-
cided to keep goods as short time as
possible and to make stock which had
been on hand a reasonable time the sub
iect of advertising in the newspapers.
By putting on such goods prices which
would make them go, and by advertising
the prices, he kept his stock clean and
won customers who stayed with him.

MIR. sEIBERT,s CHANCE.

Excise Commissioner Seibert has
given many evidences Of his desire to
enforce the law governing dramshops.
Indefault of absolute regulations on the
subject in the statutes he has used his
prerogative with the purpose Of improv-
ing conditions. As a result it has been
many years since st. Louis has enjoyed
such freedom from disreputable saloons.
July 4 is the date on which new dram
shop licenses must be obtained by
saloons now doing business. Mr.. Seibert
has given fair warning that dramshop
keepers who have failed to observe the
early closing order will not be permitted
to take out new licenses. Other saloons
that have not been operated in strict &C.
cordance with the law will also be re-
fused licenses.
BY taking this action the Excise Com
missioner makes rigid enforcement Of
the law possible. He possesses discre-
tioaary powers. There are numbers of
ealoonkeepers who have violated the
regulations in ways exceedingly difficult
to particularly define. Against them
evidence has been hard to get. These
places will feel the ban of the law by
a refusal on the part of Mr.. Seibert to
renew their licenses. By rigidly adher-
ing to his determination, Mr.. Seibert in
sures even a better condition of affairs
than at present obtains under his juris-
dicfion

WEATHER NEWS.

There is so much of practical common
sense In Weather Forecaster Hyatt's
plea for the establishment of the local
Weather Bureau in offices of a greater
altitude than those now occupied that
the suggestion should receive favorable
attention.
Doctor, Hyatt gives excellent reasons
for the proposed change. He shows that
in its present quarters in the Federal
building the Weather Bureau works I'm.
der the great disadvantage Of inability
to obtain an unbroken sky-view owing
to the taller surrounding buildings. Ac-
cess to the quarters is difficult. The
best work is impossible under existing
conditions.
It is also true, as the local head Of the
Weather Bureau asserts, that the change
which he recommends is especially de.
eirable in view Of the Worlds Fair, q
period during which so important a de.
partment should be at its best. There
win be thousands Of visitors to inspect
the workings Of the system. 1t will not
create favorable impression If the
Weather Bureau remains in its present
antiquated quarters.
In preparation for the Worlds Fair
1t might be well for the Government to
Include among its other tasks this OF
properly locating the local Weather
Bureau. Doctor Hyatt has made time
" suggestion. 1t would be gratifying to
see 1t fifty acted upon by the proper au

because Of the blowing away OF her jib
at critical moment. Ten minutes were
sacrificed In rigging new jib, yet Con-
stitution crossed the finish line within
forty-eight seconds of Columbia.
There were, however, two lessons
taught by this race. the value OF which
must not be ignored. The crews work
on Constitution was not equal to that
on the old defender. The loss of the jib
may, perhaps, have been due to this
poorer seamanship. There must be no
mulberry work on Constitution when she

OUR VOLUNTEERS.

With the mastering out of the volun-
teer army which was raised, under the
authority of an act Of Congress, for two
years service in the Philippines another
typical American militant force passes
into history.
This force Of $4,000 young Americans
was recruited by voluntary enlistment
from all sections of the Union. 1t was a
raw and unframed body, and yet 1t was
destined for the most arduous service
that soldiers can know. There is no
more trying campaign than that In an
enemy's country. where the resistance
is conducted along lines of guerrilla tao
tics, where the noncombatant population
is hostile to the invading force, where
all supplies and munitions of war must
come from home base many thou
sands Of miles distant from the scene
Of active operations. Add to this the
change from the temperate to the tropic
zone, and the serious nature of the
work confronted by the volunteer army
will be appreciated.
Yet this army Of volunteers gave an
excellent account of itself throughout
all the months Of its service in the
Philippines. Officers Of the American
regular establishment have repeatedly
testified that the volunteers campaigned
and fought like seasoned regulars. Two
volunteer commands in particular, the
Twentieth Kansas Infantry and the
Utah battery, covered themselves with
glory for daring service. Other volun-
teer commands were close seconds to
these two in the fine quality Of service
rendered. The raw recruits who sailed
for the Philippines wearing Uncle
Sans blue were good soldiers and re-
liable fighting men from the very start.
1t was In their blood.
1t is this ability Of the young Ameri-
can to become a soldier at short notice
which largely does away with the neces-
sity for big standing army. We have
something like 100000 available fight
ing men who are more useful in other
pursuits until necessity for fighting
arises. When need arises they will
make the finest army the world ever
saw.
