Wainwright Answers Inquiry.


Commander Wainwright, command
ant of the United States naval acade-
my, under the date of July goth, has
made the following reply to the navy
departments inquiry concerning the
use of Maclay's history:
Having seen so much In the papers
in regard to the third volume OF Mac
lays naval history, and having re-
ceived also an official letter from you
on the subject, think it right to put
YOU in possession of full knowledge
of the case as existing at the naval
academy.
There has been no proposition to
adopt this third volume as a textbook
or reference book, either from the head
of the department Of English, the acad-
emic board, or any person within my
knowledge. There is no intention here
of requiring the cadets to study the
history of such recent events as the
Spanish-American war, and their time
is too limited to require them to study
a full volume on any one war.
"Maclay's naval history was adopted
with the consent of the department in
1899, when the English course here
was extended far beyond its former
limits.
Long Is Tired of Discussion.
Secretary Long Monday afternoon
indicated to the newspaper men who
called upon him that he did not desire
to discuss further the revival OF the
Sampson-Schley controversy. He said
however that he had received letter
from Mr.. Maclay in which the author
Of the naval history Of the United
States agreed to his (the secretary's)
statement that only the third chapter
of his book (that relating to mobiliza
tion) had been placed in the secreta
rvs hands before the publication Of
his work.
Admiral Schley Is Silent.
Admiral Schley was seen Monday
night at the Great Neck, L. l., where
he is at present stopping. He declared
he would have nothing to say at the
present time, no matter what was sait
by others indorsing Maclay's history
He added that later, when others haC
said all they wanted to he might issue
a statement, but that this was uncer
tain.

CRYING TO GET INTO JAIL

The unique spectacle of a man cry ing because he was not in jail was wit messed in the court house last evening.

The sentence was imposed just before the adjourn ment of court. and Miller got lost in the crowd. He wandered away and finally landed in the corridor of the court house, looking for a person to take him to jail District Attorney Groman happened along and found Mil Ter crying. He asked what was the matter. and was told by Miller that he had been sentenced to prison, but didn't know where the jail was. Court Crier Dallas Dillinger came along at this time and showed Miller the way to prison. The convicted man dried his tears and went to jail rejoicing.-Phil- adelphia Public Ledger.

ON SOUND SLEEP AND SOUND.
Are the Wakeful Helped More by Reg
 ular or Irregular Noises?

! After all the experienced sleepers who have told in the papers of the last century or so just how to sleep when you can't sleep, there now comes one with a new method. The new discov- cry is that you can sleep best where there are noises of irregular nature and recurrence. It is suspected that this method has the same advantage as the , air gun mentioned in a current play. that it can be used only by the in ventor.
 He prefers a front room some where in the midst of the city to n back room further out. The back rooms are too quiet for him. Downtown there are irregular noises-trolley cars. which approach with low hum, rising to a whoop and sometimes a scream and a clang as they arrive. and then depart with . clash, fading into a murmur and a soothing purr; wagons which rattle men who sing lullabies, such as men do sing at o'clock in the morning. when they are on their way home and think that the people whose dwellings they pass will like them, and so on.
 The sleeper's explanation is that noises of different sorts, recurring at irregular intervals, take his mind off deep and continued thought on any one subject which might keep him awake. This, regular noise would not do
 It has generally been believed that for most persons more likely way to induce sleep is to produce on the mind a sense of monotony, rather than va riety. The experience of the witness just quoted seems to resemble that of the sleepy headed people. in an old story, who always went to sleep the moment they began to be interested in anything. He even goes so far as to maintain that the old method of think ing of driving pigs under a gate owes it's efficacy to the variety of the opera tion rather than to it's monotony. The probable truth is that nobody ever did go to sleep driving pigs under a gate, anyway.
 Of the other stale ways of bringing on reluctant sleep. the most seem to be aimed at the production of q sense of monotony and the freeing of the mind from every thought of any famil. lar thing. Probably as useless and also as useful-as any. is to think of an endless flock of sheep jumping over a wall. Another is to think of repeated waves breaking on the beach. To count a hundred is almost too old a way of going to sleep to deserve mention. but here is one which may not be old to some. Open your eyes as wide as pos sible and stare straight up at the cell ing above you. Of course you won't see it, because it will be dark, but stare weariness of doing this will put you to sleep. You may think that it is more comfortable to stay awake and not do it. You must be your own judge about that; perhaps it is.-Kan- sas City Star.

UPTON AND HIS EMPLoYEs.

The employees of Sir Thomas Lipton seem to be of the opinion that gener- osity, like charity. should begin at home. They are threatening to boycott the jolly sportsman because he refuses to raise their wages, although he spends hundreds of thousands of pounds on cup races and gives largely to charity. Several hundred of the ton warehouses have issued Il circular known benefactions and call attention to the fact that Sir Thomas has refused to grant them an increase of wages to half a shilling an hour.
 The genial Irish knight is passing through much the same experience as our own Andrew Carnegie. though on a much smaller scale. Lipton has spent vast sums of money on his yachts, while ignoring some of the grievances of his workmen. It is true that con sistency is a particularly beautiful jewel in the matter Of charity. but it is equally true that in the long run far more good will be done by the endow- ment of colleges or other similar insti- tutions than by the mere incidental raise of the wages of a few thousand workrnen who are already receiving fair pay. Doubtless the same is true substantially of Sir Thomas Lipton and his employees.
 The Lipton incident merely shows that it is impossible to please every body. While the whole American peo- pie are calling Sir Thomas jolly fel- low his own workmen at home are pie

POET OF THE ALAMO.

Charlottesville, Ind.-One of the lead ing literary clubs of Indianapolis. pre- sumably desirous of an evening of hi- larity, has invited James B. Fillmore. the poet of Alamo. to deliver a lecture before its members next month. MT. Fillmore has. consequently. prepared an address which will require something over an hour in delivery, and has sub mitted it to several admiring friends in Charlottesville for approval. After giving his views of books" Mir. FL more gets down to the real sub ject. which he prefaces as follows:
 "I have now reached q point, dear hearers. where you are expecting me to reveal to you about my inmost soul as I speak to you about poets and po- etry. Poetry is writing in circle with q rhythmical cadence. The verses are in pairs. generally ending with a sifni- larity of sound. A piece written in prose in syllable feet is not real poetry. College professors. because they are prosy and dignified, and cannot write poetry, are too apt to call it by that name" MT. Elmore then proceeds to fay Shakespeare. Milton and other frauds" who indulged in "the non- rhyming syllable feet prose-" He pays high tribute to James Whitcomb Riley, however. whom he describes as "a genial bachelor who can play upon words as beautiful as a kitten with mouse. se."-Indiapapolis News.
