HOWE & STETSON.
EXCURSION ON THE CHAPIN.
Trip to the Racee Enjoyed by a Largo
 Crowd.

CrowOs
 The steamer Chester w. Chapin yes- terday carried a crowA of at least 1,50O races and many were the expressions of satisfaction heard after the ssturn last night from those who enjoyed, the trip. Although a large crowd was aboard the big steamer the number of tickets placed on sale had pem SC lim- ited that there was plency of room aboard and none of the crowding which so often renders excursions of the kind unenjoyable.
 The Chapin with the Old Guard band aboard and playing left Belle dock at 11:45 yesterday forenoon and anchored in the River Thames off New London at 2:45 The anchorage was about op- posite the three mile stakes and in ar admirable position for the passengers to witness the race. The crowd aboard was distinctively q Yale crowd, only one red banner being visible.
 The Chapin left New London for the return trip immediately after the freshman race, about o'clock, and docked at Relic dock a few minutes af- ter Il o'clock
 The trip was entirely free from the features which so often characterize steamboat excursions. No liquor was sold aboard and the pleas ing result of this was commented upon most favorably by hundreds of those aboard

DEWEY TESTTFIES.
Hts First Inclination That FiIipinos Aspired for Independent Government

Washington, June 26.-Admiral Dewey testifying to-day before the Philippine committee said that he did not depend upon Aguinaldo's help to take the city of Manila.
 The admiral said that after Aguinal- do got his forces organized he occupied 'Cavite, but when he Goewey) learned that American troops were expected to arrive soon, he asked the F'ilipinos to retire. They at first demurred, but ulti- mately consented
 It was after this time on July 15 that Aguinaldo sent to him from Baccooor his first proclamation of the independence of the Philippines.
 That proclamation" said the admir- al, was the first intimation I had ever received of the aspiration of the Philip pine people for an independent govern ment. Aguinaldo had never told me that the independence of his people was his aim, But when this proclamation came I thought nothing of it. Indeed I attached so little importance to it that I did not cable it to Washington but left it's transmittaI to the mails"
 When Senator Lodge asked the ad- miral Did you recognize the Philippine republic?" he replied:
 T did not. l never gave it the slight est recognition. I had no authority to do so and beside, did not consider it an organized government There was reign of terror and the Philippine forces were riding rough shod over the community, committing many acts of cruelty. I sent word to Aguinaldo that he must treat his prisoners kindly and he replied that he would"

SOFT COAL
AND HOWTO USE IT---A NEW HA-
YEN LADT'S SUCCESSFUL TRIAL.

Mrs. Il. A. Warner, of 81 Admiral street,
Has Written to ". r. GIiber, & Co..
the Coal Merchants.
The following letter regarding the use
of soft coal has been received by w. F.
Gilbert & Co.:
New Haven, Conn, Dec. 9, 1902
w. F. Gilbert & Co.:
Dear Sirs-In view of the fact that
there is so much suffering in New Ha-
ven on account of the scarcity of an
thracite coal. take the liberty of writ
ing you few lines in regard to bitum-
nous or soft coal.
1t was with some misgivings. l will
admit, that ordered and received from
you on the 18th day of October my first
ton of soft coal.
My first use of it was in the furnace
(steam), and the first day my temper"
was a trifle ruffled, but had made up
my mind to burn soft COAL" and 1
have succeeded. Since the second day
1 have had no trouble whatever in keep
ing a fire. day or night.
Since the 14tb day of October the fire
in the furnace has gone out but once,
and that was because there was not
sufficient coal put on when the fire was
fixed for the night, and it just simply
all burned out.
Last Sunday l built soft-coal fire in
the kitchen range for the first time. I
had no trouble at all and have had
continuous fire ever since, both day and
night.
1t has kept over night just as well as
hard coal ever did, and I have had a
quicker and better fire in the morning.
It heats the water in the boiler and
heats the oven quicker and better than
hard coal.
1t does not redden the top of the stove
any more than hard coal. AS far as
dust and dirt are concerned, I cannot
see that it makes any more dirt than
hard coal. With hard coal it was nee
essary to remove the ashes from the
furnace twice a week; with soft coal
once week is sufficient
In the range the hard coal ashes had
to be removed daily; twice a week will
be sufficient for soft-coal ashes.
I firmly believe that properly used,
soft coal will go farther and give bet
ter results, ton for ton, than hard coal.
There is practically no waste, and there
are no ashes to sift or cinders to pick
over, which, to my mind, is great
point in it's favor.
I find that perfect success in the use
of soft coal depends almost entirely
upon proper use of the hampers and
plenty of coal. When one has mas
tered that part of the problem there is
no further trouble. 1t seems such a
pity that any one should suffer with
cold when there is so much warmth
and comfort in soft coal.
Very truly yours,
MRS. B. A. WARNER.

soUsA's BAND TO-DAY.

SOUSA'S BAND TO-DAY.
The Sousa band was not the creation
OF moment to fash into ephemeral
popularity. but the inspiration OF a keen
managerial mind prompted by the gen.
JUS o. great musician. It was q tri-
umph os business scumen allied to
lofty artistic ideals that appreciated
the love Of music in the masses as we'll
as their popular predictions.
There is not a town of more than TO-
900 inhabitants in this country where
Sousa has not been a welcome visitor
during the last decade, and his popu-
larity is established upon an equally
firm footing in the musical eenters of
Europe. The personnel of the organi-
cation undergoes but few changes, and
mellowed by years Of work under the
same baton, these players have reached
the highest degree of artistic finish.
Mr.. Sousa will bring his great band
to the Hyperion to-day for a grand
concert. matinee and night. Following
his custom Of presenting the best vocal
and instrumental talent in conjunction
with his band Mr.. Sousa offers as sup
porting soloists two young women, new
to the Sousa audiences, who will ad-
mirably maintain the artistic balance
of the organization, Miss Estelle Lieb-
ling, a brilliant young American So
prano, who has achieved conspicuous
success in Germany as well as at home,
and Miss Grace Jenkins, violiniste Of
distinction and charm. Arthur Pryor,
trombone, remains as in former years,
the chief band soloist. All the Sousa
marches will be heard, including his
last, Imperial Edward written for
King Edward VII. +
