Ex-CoNGREssMAN Jonathan S. Willis
who left the Union party with the hope
of bettering his chances for nice Fed
eral appointment by becoming Reg
ular," is on his ear. He fires a boom
erang at Editor Townsend of the Mil
ford Chronicle who accused him of
"wanting something else. In Satur-
days issue of the NeiUs and AdUertiser
of Milford the Reverend Jonathan
comes out with the following open let
ter:
Editor of the Peninsula Ne,0s and
AdUer'iser: The editor of the Milford
Chronicle has twice, or thrice, perpe
trated the gratuituous assumption that
J. S. Willis is an unsuccessful appli-
can. for the office of supervisor of the
free mail delivery. For the comfort of
the editor l will state that Mr.. Willis
has never applied for the position, and
this information may save the sapient
editor the unpleasant task of working
himself into frenzy over the matter.

Judge Advocate Lemly closed the |
Schley inquiry Thursday afternoon,
and the great trial is at an end un-
til the Judges hand down their verdict
The Judge Advocate read his argu-
ment and was listened to by a large
audience. Unassuming in the matter
of forensic speech, he presented plain
closely reasoned view of the case
against Admiral Schley, and displayed
candor aud liberality that became his
position as an officer of the Court. His
criticisms were candid and at no point
acrimonious. He said that at all times
Schley seemed to rely too much on
others and not enough on himself. He
should have followed McCalla up and
got his information from that officer.
He should not have trusted as he did
to Sigsbee and the other scout captains
at Santiago. The onus of the retro
grade movement he placed entirely on
Schley, and he said that the Commo-
dore alone, as commander of the squad
ron, was responsible for the loop Yet
he would not accord to him any special
honor for the command during the bat
tie, for he said II was -"a captain s
fight aut a.. .iu- went in without
any set l.D-. y. yattle. In this connec-
tiOn it seems unavoidable to notice the
fact that for the questionable move oil
the loop the Judge Advocate held
Schley responsible as fleet commander
but for the result of the battle he says
no one man is entitled to the honor
which seems to dispose of the claim
for Sampson for commander in chief

Brain-FOOd Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has-been
branded by the most competent au
thorities, They have dispelled the
silly notion that one kind of food is
needed for brain, another for muscles,
and still another for bones. A correct
diet will not only nourish particular
part of the body, but it will sustain
every other part Yet, however good
your food may be, its uutriment is des-
troyed by indigestion or dyspepsia.
