For sheer melodrama the English
Jewel robber Houghton's arrest would
be hard to beat. After his last big dla-
mond theft he was traced to west
Bromwich and thence led the detect
ives a dance over the country. At last
when the pursuers were hard on his
heels he dashed into a travelling men
agerie which was exhibiting just out
side Birmingham. There he found one
of the attendants fastening up a van
cage containing a pair Of large gray
wolves. He flung the man on one sue
and opened the cage, shutting himselL
IN with the beasts and daring any one
to fetch him out. The strange thing
was that the wolves, which the propri-
etor had always considered the most
dangerous animals in the show, took no
notice whatever of the fugitive, Du'
showed great i'll temper towaru 'he
keeper and a constable, who had gre"'
difficulty in dragging Houghton out

William Mckinley, who passed from this

ule Of Games Arranged At The Naval
Academy And St, Johns College. =
Preparations are being made at me
Naval Academy for the coming season
on the gridiron, and the "middies" hope
to be represented by the strongest team
that they have had for number OF years
Naval Cadet Neil E. Nichols. who will
captain the Naval Academy eleven, said
when he came ashore from the recent
practice cruise that the navy would have
a good team this season. and he expected
to have score OF men here in September
to begin practice.
AS usual, the team has lost by gradua-
ton some OF its best players, but the loss
will be nearly. il not entirely, made up
by good material from the "hustlers.
Last years men who will be missed are
Cadets Orie w. Fowler. the captain of
the elevan. who played left haliback;
Guy Whitlock, center; John {. Fremont.
IT,, left guard; Byron A. Long, quarter
back, and Roger Williams, left tackle.
Those OF the team who remain from
last season are Cadets Neil Z. Nichols,
left end, who is captain Of this years
eleven; Charles Belknap, Jro right guard; !;
Roe X. Adams, right tackle; Semmes
Read, right end; Emory 5. Land, right
haliback, and {. Z. Smith, fullback.
The second team furnishes the follow
ing good material from which the new
men will be recruited: Frank b. Freyer,
iullback; George Horning, haliback j ohm
Rodgers. tackle; Reginald T. Carpenter.
left guard; c. c. Soule, A. X. Shoup and
M. b. Barneue. The incoming fourth
class also usually furnishes one or more
players for the eleven.
No team at the Academy exci.es the
interest that the eleven does in its work.
Since it has the help. of the Navy
Athletic Association. an organic alton
composed of the naval officers and grad
yates of the Naval Academy, it has con-
stantly developed year by year into a
better team than the preceding season.
The association was the outgrowth OF
the signal defeat the Army gave the
Navy at the Naval Academy in the sec,
ond of the six games that the two institu-
tions have played with each other. The
Navy had then neither money nor coach.
Since that time the Naval Academy has
lacked nothing 10 make it a first class
team, and no game is desired more than
the one with West Point, notwithstand-
ing that the Army has always had the
prepouderance OF weight and years
against the sailors.
Manager L. b. Potterfield has arfang-
ed the following schedule Of games /;
Saturday. October 5-Georgetown.

LINE OFFICERS TO ENGINES.
Assignments In The Navy Which Causes
Comment,

comment
The line OF the navy is growing appre-
hensive over the strong probability OF an
engineer corps being re-establIshed next
winter owing to the failure of the Per-
sonnet bill provisions TO supply the num-
Der OF engineer officers required, and
efforts are now making TO defeat this step
by more liberal Interpretation of the
Clauses relating to exchange OF duties be-
tween former engineers and line officers
In the machinery division.
The warrant machinists have been
practically in control OF the engines on
all the finest war vessels during the past
year or two, and this state of affairs has
aroused Admiral George w Melville and
Other, men OF the service TO a realization
that IL existing conditions continue the
navy might shortly be in the same re-
proachable condition in which the British
service finds itself with the general use
OF special type OF boiler reported un-
serviceable in recent competitive trials
over long distance cruising with another
type.
To obstruct, if possible, the growing
effort of officers to have the old engineer
corps revived Admiral A. S. Crownin-

TO engine room duty, and gradually, so
Tar as the material available will permit,
line men are to be sent to the engine
rooms OF ships. Three have been as
signed to look after the machinery OF the
Illinois, just commissioned. and an equal
numbered ordered TO the Indiana. Some
other ships have also received an allot-
ment OF line officers for engine-room
duty. There is opposition as a rule to
the line officer serving in the machinery
departments, but under the order no
other course is open to him but to obey
instructions. Until the present order
there were not six line officers in the en-
tire naval service in charge of engines.
while nearly 100 former engineers, but
now line officers under the amalganation

corporated at Albany. N. y, this week.
Respecting the purposes and prospects
of the new company, Mr.. John w.
Mackay, who came over from Paris last
week, said that the Commercial Pacific
Gable Company was organized to lay a
Submarine cable from California 10 the
Philippine Islands by way of Honolulu.
in the Hawaiian Islands. The length OF
the cable will be about 8. 500 miles, the
part to be first laid being from California
to the Hawaiin Islands. The portion,
Mr.. Mackay expects, will bein operation
within nine months. The time required
for the laying of the remainder of the
cable from the Hawaiin Islands to the
Philippine Islands will depend upon how
quickly the cable can be manufactured,
but Mr.. Mackay believes the whole
cable will be completed within two years.

YORK STATE FOLKS
Arthur Sidman's New Rural Play At The
Academy Of Music, Baltimore,
Next Week.

A big event for local theatrego oers will
be the presentation at the Academy OF
Music. Baltimore, next week of Arthur
Sidmans new rural play, "York State
Folks" This newest of pastoral dramas
has been given the most elaborate pro.
duction yet provided for rural play.
Every effort has been used to make this
presentation of a charming story OF viii
lage lie in York State" as realistic as
possible. The piece is in four acts and
FIVE scenes, and two carloads OF scenery
and mechanical effects are carried. The
scenes are from the brush of Arthur
Voegtlin, and are said to be the best
work he has ever done. The "lovers'
lane" scene of the second act, in parlic-
ular, is said to be a marvelously natural
stage picture. A company of fifty people
is carried, including thirty boys for the
church scene. 1t has been the aim Of
the author to get away from the hack
neyed plot OF the average rural play and
he is said to have succeeded admirably.
The leading part is that of an old village
organist and organ-builder, character
full of the dryest humoT, but with pathetic
touches here and there which make it a
distinctive as well as charming person
ality. Several other types new TO pastoral
drama are introduced, but all are said to
have been drawn with the utmost fidelity
to nature. "York State Folks" is above
all truthful rural porlraiture. Its pro-
duction in Baltimore next week will be
awaited with interest. RI

Leon F. Czolgosz. alias Fred NiemaE.
was found guilty Yesterday OF murder in

the Supreme Court. Buffalo, in having
on the 9th day OF September shot and
fatally wounded President Mckinley.
The case was given TO the jury 3.sI
and the verdict was returned at 4.26, or
exactly thirty minutes later. The wheels
of justice moved swiftly. The trial OF
the assassin consumed eight hours and
twenty.six minutes and covered period
OF only two days.
Practically all of this time was occu-
pied by the prosecution in presenting a
case so clear, so conclusive that even
had the prisoner entered the plea OF in
sanity. il is doubtful if the july would
have returned verdict different from
the one rendered yesterday. Justice
White announced that he would pro-
nounce sentence upon the defendant on
Thursday afternoon at o'clock.
The prisoner was taken at once through
the tunnel back to the Jail. To all ap-
pearances he was in no way affected by
the result OF the trial.

BELONGING TO The Fashionable Set.

1t is doubtless stultifying to broader
development to belong to fashionable
set. Like looking through an uneven
glass, nothing is seen at its true value
what is unimportant is magnihed, while
the real issues of life are blurred and be-
Titled. Up to certain point it must be
conceded that social ambition is stimu-
lating, as for instance, the desire to be
respectable" in the lower classes, or
the determination of an energetic and
clever man to compel the recognition of
the world. But for the young people
who are surrounded by a fashionable
encourage, or those on the confines OF
smart society who are led to regard a
prominent position in its ranks as the SUI
mum bonum that can be achieved, the
atmosphere in which they live is some
times morally malarous, and is almost
sure to eneTvate and deterionate the
character. How can young man be
eager to achieve distinction, if true dis
tinctions are regarded with indifference
by those about them? If TO be popular
diner out, successful leader of cotllions
OF personagrata at smart house parties,
is more esteemed than is rising polili-
clan, a successful writer, or a genius in
art, it certainly gives small incentive to
any such effort. 1t requires indeed an
exceptional character TO free itself from
the trammels that blind and the rust
that corrodes its better nature, and few
there are who accomplish 1t.
