THE INDIANA AT NAVY YARD.
OFFICERS GIVE DETAILS OF THE KILL
ING OF A JAPANESE COOK.

The battleship Indiana, which has been at
tached to the North Atlantic Squadron in its
winter manPuvres in Southern waters, reached
the Brooklyn Navy Yard yesterday morning.
She will remain about three weeks for repairs.
The Indianas commander is Captain William II.
Emory.
Full details of the killing of a japanese cook
on the battleship several months ago were OBJ
tanned from the officers yesterday The affair
occurred on Washington's Birthday. The Indi-
ana was anchored in the Bay Of Guantanamo
and the crew making merry with a minstrel
show. The cook. Komagf Makamoto. a Jap
anese, spilled pan of grease on the quarter
deck. Master of Arms James r. Douglass spoke
to him rather sharply and told him TO be quick
in wiping up the grease.
The cook, ii seems nice enough about il
and made all haste to clean the deck bur his
work did not suit the master of arms. There
were some words, and Douglass gave Maka-
motto a hard blow under the jaw with his fist
The Japanese fell to the deck unconscious and
died in d short time. It was afterward found
that the blow drove the cooks jawbone into his
brain
Robinson was Immediately arrested on the or
der Of Lieutenant Commander Hodgson Several
days later he was tried by a court martial on
the battleship Alabama the charge of invoI-
untary mansaughter. He was convicted and
sentenced 20 imprisonment for three years He
was sent North and is now serving his sentence
in Boston.
While the Indianl was at Guantanamo there
was an epidemic OF mumps among the sailors
and eight tents were put up shore TO ac-
ccmmodate those who were quarantined The
collection OF tents was known as Camp Mumps
At Culebra the artillery crews OF the various
ships of the squadron taken ashore for a
comparative test. The crew of the Indiana,
with a three-inch rapid fire gun. won the con-
test, with a total Of twenty-five bulls eyes out
of twenty-four shots.
The crew brought the usual number of sailors
yarns. To substantiate of them they have
three monkeys, which known JOCko H.
Jocko III and Jocko ~. At time there was
a Jocko ! and Miss Jocko, and thereby hangs
the tale. The five monkeys joined the Indiana
at Trinidad, and furnished much amusement for
all on board. II is said that Miss Jocko was par
ucularly mischievous. One day. after her pranks
had become unendurable a sailor started out to
visit merited punishment upon the animal. She
led him merry chase through the ship. and
finally sought refuge top of one Of the smoke
stacks. But for only minute did she stay there
for puff of smoke blinded her and she fell into
the furnace below.
JockO l, who had been particularly fond of
Miss Jocko. searched in vain for her. and then
IL is related, committed suicide by eating can
of lye.

REPORT MADE TO THE SENATE BY SECRE-
TARY WILSON
Washington, May (speciaD.-At the request Of
the Senate, report the extinction Of the Ameri-
can bison has recently been prepared by the Sec
retary OF Agriculture, which calls attention TO
some interesting and important points in regard
10 this rare animal. The Secretary SAYS that the
American bison is the verge Of determination
and that scarcely handful now remain of the
millions which formerly roamed over the plains Of
the West The Department Of Agriculture is aware
Of only two small herds OF wild buraloes in existence
in the United States. in the Yellowstone Park
the other in Lost Park Colorado. and although it
does not know the number Of animals I'm these
herds at the present time II has reason TO believe
that the Yellowstone herd does not exceed twenty
five. and the Lost Park herd eight or ten. Except
faloes in Canada, but there a few woodland
bufaoes. which believed to different species
from the plain buffalo
In addition the small herds in geological parks
and in the hands Of private individuals. there are
three important herds-the Corbin herd on the game
preserve of the Blue Mountain Forest Association
in NewHampshire; the Allard herd. on the Flat
head Indian reservation in Montana and the Good
night herd containing about hundIed crossbreeds
at Goodnight, Tex. In reference TO these private
collections, the report says: IF the government
could acquire possession OF these bufaloes they
be preserved indefinitely. Unless this is done there
entirety"
The report also says that should the govern
ment acquire possession Of considerable number
of full booded animals II Is possible that the abso-
Lutte determination of the species might be long
demic disease and deterioration by close IN
breeding. the government herd should be divided

Hon CASTOR Ali Robbins, who perish
ed in the Park Avenue Hotel fire, WAS
a nephew of Hon. ". NJ. Robbins and
Hon. Frank c. Robbins. His father was
son of tho late Ali Robbins, of Ran

men, and the young man who persisted III
the flames had decided talent. He was
educated at the University of North
Carolina, and vas elected to Congress- in
Alabama before he was thirty years old.
He had hot political contests, for he
lived in a close district He moved to
New York q year ago and had already
laid the foundation for successful ca

GROsvENOR KISSED.

In the National Theatre in Washing
ton. the Sons Of the Revolution held a
patriotic meeting TO hear euloGies on the
Father of his Country, as is their GUS
tom every year. The orator of the day
was Represent alive Charles II. Grosvenor,
who had the bad taste-to say the least
10 insult the sons of brave Confederate
soldiers whose ancestors were also brave
soldiers in the Revolutionary war. He
made a reference to the Civil War, said
an attempt was being made to change its
name TO the War Between the States, and
he added: THE War of the Rebellion 1t
was called and the War of the Rebellion
it will be with me until my death. 1t
was War Of Rebellion" The Washing
ton Post contains the above extract, and
then thus reports what followed
"The speaker paused for d moment
after making this remark. and the vast
audience, which filled every corner of the
theatre, amazed those on the stage by
the Kisses which broke forth from every
part of the house. Some few people APP
plauded the sentiment expressed. but the
applause was drowned in the Kissing"

AN IDEAL APPOINTMENT.

The Governor has made an ideal APP
pointment as State superintendent of
Public Instruction, TO succeed the late
General Toon. The new Superintendent,
Prof James Y. Joyper is easily one of
the first men in his profession in North
Carolina He is born teacher, a schol-
ar, n student, speaker of elegance and
ly imbued with the spirit of educational
progress that found it's expression in the
Educational Conference held in Raleigh
last week
MIR. JOINER mas held Teachers Insti-
tutes in almost every county in the State,
he knows the needs. and he will zealously
and eloouently plead the cause OF local
taxation in the rural districts, as well
as direct the general work from his office
i'll Raleigh.
Mr. Joyner is a practical teacher who
has given his life to public education.
The profession will hail his appointment
as the evidence that the day has come
when the teaching profession has made
for itself a place with the other learned
professions. able to furnish the we'll
equipped practical man to direct the edu-
oational policy in the Commonwealth.

DOES He KNOW OR NOT?

1t is said that Mr.. Roosevelt is sin
cerely DESTROYS of having the South re-
gard him as its friend. Indeed, it, is
stated that he invited Booker Washing
ton to dine with him at the White House
so that they might discuss the best
policy Of not irritating Southern senti-
ment' Save The mark. And now in his
recent speech to the Grand Army i'll
Washington, Mr.. Roosevelt refers to
those who wore the blue in the sixties"
as having made war against anarchy
In the first instance he offended the
taste, the traditions and the universal
sentiment of the South. In the last in
stance he grossly migrepresents the
character ana spirit of the Southern
people. If he does these things because
he does not know any better, he ought
TO know better; if because be wishes 20
give offence, his conduct is unpardon-

CHILDREN IN FACTORIES.

a correspondent Of the american Wool
and Cotton Reporter. writing from Raj
eign. says that less than five years ago
fully third OF the operatives en-
ployed In North Carolina and other South
ern mills were children most OF them
upder IL and Is years OF age. where
as at present less than one-ffth arc min
crS under ii of Is. ard only q small pCr-
ton of them under i or IS. \ few un-
der II and 10 Years are stiil employed
The official figures show that there are
ASA operatives in North Carolina mills
If these figures are correct, the owners
OF cotton mills have responded TO public
sentiment and their own convictions by
reducing the number Of children in the
factories. Nearly all Of them agreed last
winter not TO employ chillren under Is
and most OF them have faithfully car
ried out their agreement. Have any
failcd'
