METHODS
OF Schley Court
Members.

Gun Shop.
Dewey Makes the Great
est Show.
Members Garry Uniforms and
Don Them In Ante.Rooms.

Washington, Oct. S.-(Spl.)-Mem-
bers and officers of the Schley Court
Of Inquiry have a long road to travel
to reach the Navy Yard where the
sessions are held. The yard Is located
at the southeastern edge of the city
on the shore of the eastern branch Of
the Potomac. This out of the way
place was chosen, because the new
gun shop at the navy yard was found
to be the only building ut the disposal
OF the Navy department large enough
to afford room for the court.
Judge Advocate Lemly and his as
sistant, Mr.. Hanna, are first on deck
every morning. They arrive in street
cars an hour before the time for be-
ginning the morning session. They
are then very busily engaged until
court convenes, in studying documents
and preparing for the work OF the
day.
Admiral Dewey reaches the Navy
Yard promptly at 1880 o'clock in one
of the SWEETEST turnouts in the city.
Admirals Benham and Ramsay, the
other members Of the court, are usual
ly about ten minutes behind Admiral
Dewey. They arrive in government
carriage drawn by single horse.
Admiral Schley and his attorneys
use the street cars, and usually reach
the Navy Yard together, shortly be-
fore court opens.
Uniforms are worn by the navy ofii-
GERS only during the sessions. Wit
nesses carry their uniforms usually
in suit eases, and change from civil
ian dress In the ante-rooms.

who did not understand English busf
ness customs. Every one Of the 1876
supposed houses on which Blodt loan
ed himself the money he got away
with was protected in this way. None
of them ever had any existence ex-
cept on paper. The policies that
covered them were issued not by one
company but were distributed over
several of the most prominent COM
panies represented in Cleveland. Ap-
parently the officials of the Guarantee
company say not one Of the agents
I Of these companies ever inspected
the fake property he insured.
1t was the presence of these policies
all in regular shape that prevented
any suspicious on the part Of the
men who investigated Blodts ac-
counts. Only n chance discovery that
one of these pieces Of property had
no house upon it gave Secretary
Livingston IL clew to follow up the
investigation that has occupied the
past few weeks. A. was when this
discovery was made known to Blodt
and he was asked for an explanation
that the man, seeing that all his guilt
would soon he discovered, retired to
the little room in the Perry ST., board
ing house and turned on the gas that
ended his life
AS last precaution to prevent de-
lection Blodt kept the loans he had
from his company always paid up.

1t is now discovered tat J. A.
Blodt, secretary Of the Guarantee
Savings & Loan Co., of Cleveland,
who committed suicide Sunday, had
robbed that institution right and left.
The deficit is estimated at 100000.
"Blodts stealings were so carefully
conducted that they were not even
suspected until an accident started
an investigation into the real estate
securities of the concern. This inves-
| tigatiOn was only completed last Fri
day and until that day the officials
of the company had no conception Of
the real condition of the concern.
Blodt saw the end approaching and
on Sept. 80 committed suicide in Il
boarding house on Perry st.
fall entirely on the stockholders OF
the Guarantee Savings Il Loan Co.
The amount of stock now out is $814,-
600. This stock Is held by at least
1000 stockholders, and the wreckinG
OF the company, with Its consequent
loss to them will be Il terrible priva
ton to many of them. The state au
thOrities estimate the assets of the
dcfunct loan company ut 80 cents on
the dollar. 1t will be weeks before
are more inclined to be optimistic
and they believe that the assets vii
exceed this figure, one estimate
putting them as high as 10 cents ol
the dollar. I'll win be weeks ibefor,

clear up somewhat when the securities
now held are closely examined.
One factor in the case Is the stolcI
money itself. An investigation into
the affairs of the defaulter have S,

large sums he made way with. Tn,
trustees appointed by the court tc
wind up the affair of the compan,

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale OF any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers' never thought of u.s.
ing anything else for Indigestion or
Biliousness. Doctors we're scarce,
and they seldom heard Of Appendi-
citis, Nervous Prostitution or Heart
failure, etc. They used August Flow
er to clean out the system and stop
fermentation OF undigested food, reg
ulate the action OF the liver, stimu-
late the nervous and organic action
of the system, and that is all they
took when feeling dull and bad with
headache and other aches. You on
ly need a few doses of Green's August
Flower, in liquid form, to make you
satisfied there is nothing serious the
matter with you. Get Green's Prize
Almanac at the local drug stores. ~.

PLANTS FOR THE vERANDA.

With the usual perverseness of
human nature, it is the woman on
the shady side of the street who usu-
ally wants Towering plants for her
veranda, and it is her neighbor on
the sunny side who admires, above
all things, a variety of palms and
ferns. Because a house is generally
on the shady or the sunny side Of
the street a veranda is difficult
place to decorate with plants; but,
with planning, each can be fitted
with those best suited to it's situa-
ton. Jardinieres for posts, filed
with palms and ferns; trailing vines
from hanging baskets, running
vines up the supports and across
the woodwork and box for the
edge filed with fuchsias, geraniums,
heiotropes, a few petunias and a
fern or two are all suitable for the
shady veranda. For the vines that
will thrive best there there are the
variegated vinca, English and Ger
man ivies and Asparagus plumosus.
Anything but palms and ferns
will grow on the sunny veranda.
Rubber plants, which, like well dis
ciplined people, accommodate them
selves to circumstances, will grow
in either place.

In and Into.

Much confusion characterizes the
use Of these two propositions. Stor-
month gives the simplest and best
rule concerning them which we have
come across. He says: *'Into comes
after verb denoting motion, and
in follows verb denoting rest"
This gives the idea comprehensive
ly, but it must not be taken literal
ly. Thus it is entirely proper to
say Gle fell in the street, The
person referred to may have been
walking or standing still when he
fell. He was, however, already in
the street, and therefore when he
fell he did not move into it. If,
however, he was in a building or
other structure facing the street and
he fell, landing in the street, it
would then be proper to say HE
fell into the street." ..u,.4
In is frequently an adverb, and
in such cases it should be used after
a verb denoting motion. For ex-
ample, it is correct to say s'He came
In" of one who had been asked to
enter a house. But if proposition
were to be used in this connection
the phrase would be ''He came into
the house,
Those who will commit to memo
~ the rule quoted will soon be sure
Of their ground when they have oc-
casiOn to use in or into.

To the Public,
once.

The clerks representing the differ
emf business places of the City OF
Warren, considering the long hours
in which they were employed and
knowing the necessity of recreation
and enjoyment by them during the
summer evenings, entered into an
agreement amongst themselves to
get their employers to close their
places OF business every evening at 8
O'Clock, except on Saturdays, as has
already been advertised in the CITY
papers. The merchants kindly con-
sented to this agreement and have
been endeavoring to keep to their
agreement and close their several
places of business at the time agreed
upon, and although they have adj
vertised that they wiIlso close, and
all the clerks have co-operated, yet
t seems pretty hard to strictly live
up to the agreement, as a number OF
their patrons come to the different
stores just about the hour for clos
ing, and some coming after. That
the clerks in the stores have to work
much longer hours than any other
employees in the city can not be de-
MED, being on duty every day from
seven GU O'Clock in the morning I'M
til eight (S) O'Clock at night. On
Saturday the hours are much longer,
and we have every confidence in the
friendly heart Of every patron OF the
stores that when the facts are known
to them and Of the objects Of early
closing that they and every one 81
them will y assist the merchants and
their clerks in keeping the agreement
