EXPECTING CENsURE.-Rear Admiral
Schley expects the court of inquiry re-
port will be made public within week.
The admiral, it is understood, will not
be greatly surprised should he be crit
icised upon some Of the counts in the
precept He has stated in conversation
with friends that he expected that he
might be found to have committed
some errors of judgment: but not of
a nature to reflect severely on his pro-
fessional standing, courage or ability.
High authority at the navy depart
ment holds that Admiral Schley could
be tried upon two specific charges, if not
vindicated on them by the court; but it
is scarcely probable this would follow.
1t is likely the courts findings will be
accepted as finally closing the case so
far as the government is concerned.
The charges under which courtmar-
tial, 1t Is held, might be ordered, relate
to the Hodgson correspondence and the
admirals communication to the senate
committee, both of which incidents
transpired within two years. The rest
of the clauses in the precept related
to events three years or more ago.

Supreme Court Justice ADashed.

The days Of whispered conferences In
the White House are past. The presi-
dent sees most of his visitors in the big
reception room. He goes from one to
another and says what he has to say
in voice that reaches to every part OF
the room.
a day or two ago, says the Baltimore
News, a justice Of the supreme court
came in with his son. The justice pre-
sented the son. Then he leaned over
and whispered few words to the pres
ident's ear.
IT am sorry" said the president-and
so people heard him rasp it out am
sorry, but it cannot be done. All pro-
motions must be on merit"
A very much abashed justice Of the
supreme court, with his son in tow, left
the White House hurriedly.
This absolute refusal Of the pres1-
dent to get chummy and talk in whis-
pers amazes the gum-shoe statesmen,
who have been going around talking
under their breaths for so years. They
want to be mysterious. They think all
politics always should be talked sub
rosa.
Uncle Shelby Cullom, who even stops
a street car in a whisper, and who
moves about so softly that his oppo-
nents can never keep track Of him, Is
puzzled.
Getting the presidents ear" he said
the other night, "is like opening a win
dow and shouting at the wide, wide
world. He talks too loud" and there
was a nlaintive note in the Illinois
statesman's voice.

AN EMBEZZLING DOG.
He Wasted on Beer Funds Meant for
Charity.

He Wasted on Beer Funds Meant for
Charity.
From the London Express.
A sad story Of animal depravity comes
from a northern coal district. For some
years a well-known, .collieryss region has
been blessed with the services of a brown
retriever, who.. withra collecting box strap
ped saddle-wise across his back. was ac-
customed to travel from pit to pit begging
coppers, or even higher contributions, on
behalf Of sick and benevolent fund. In
this way he has sometimes obtained as
much as 22s., in a single week. and the
fund itself has been the means of doing
an enormous amount of good. OF course,
the miners themselves have been contribut-
ing out Of their weekly earnings, but the
dog excited so much interest among them
by the faithful performance of his mission
that they readily put their spare coppers
into the box he carried.
Some time ago the dog happened to call
at q public house, where he knew good
many Of his patrons would be assembled.
Besides dropping pennies into his box and
regaling him with biscuits. some of them
used to let him take sip or two out of
their mugs of beer. In this way the un-
fortunate animal acquired a liking for
drink, with the most deplorable results. 1t
was not that he occasionally became in
toxicated and was thereby unable to pur-
moral nature became depraved To such
an extent had this deterioration gone that
some days ago he was discovered by the
side of the road in a perfectly helpless con-
dition with nothing remaining Of his box
except the straps. He was taken care Of,
and eventually got sober again, when his
conduct became such as to excite the ut
most wonder.
He whined piteously and tried to escape.
By and by he became very violent. and the
miiiers thought he was mad. They would
not let him go, but tethered him to long
string and then he led them to place on
the side of a rocky hill, where they dis
covered fragments of the collecting box
and also the hiding place of it's contents.
1t seemed that after going his usual
round on the preceding Saturday the dog
had gone to this spot, and by some means
probably by rolling over and over on his
back-broken the box to splinters and re-
leased the money. He had then concealed
the coins, and helping himself to them as
his degenerate cravings prompted, lad
spent more than half of the money in beer
at various public houses in the neighbor-
hood. Great indignation Is felt with the
publicans who supplied him, for they knew
the dog well and ought to have noticed the
absence of his collecting box. And, more
over, after the first four or five drinks his
condition must have been matter for re-
mark. The dog is now under careful re-
straint, and it is hoped that he may yet
again resume his useful labors..
