The Encore Habit.

From being an expression Of
approval of the merits of a song, a
bit of acting or a rendition of some
masterpieces of music, a method
taken by an appreciative audience
to pay tribute to excellence of per-
Torrance, the clapping of hands
has descened by gradual stages in
to a pernicious, pestiferous and
rapacious habit. From the repeti-
ton of that which called forth the
applause, given by the performers
as a gracious recognition of the
compliments Of the audience, per-
formers have descended to expect
the tribute and to feel offendedif
it is not given. They provide a
stock of extras against the calls.
The performance is stretched out
to unreasonable length; the aud
fence is. saturated instead Of being
satisfied, and the performers are
wearied. The manager offers
the printed programme at a named
figure. He shouldn not be expected
to give twice the quantity, ncr
should the audience ask it. The
effect is to rob the applause of
all merit as a tribute. It no long
er expresses pleasure at what has
been had, but a voraciouss appetite
for more it is entitled to-, Doubt
less the law Of; compensation works
its will, and the audience is really
paying for what it thinks it gets
gratuitously. Actors and singers,
no more than other folks, are in
clined to give something for moth
ing, and if the audience insists up
on getting moro than it pays for at
the ticket office, the value of the
excess appears in an increased
cost of the ticket. But whether
the audience pays for what it gets
or not, the v%iciousness of the prac.
tice lies in the fact thatsit thinks
it does not. and that it is really
getting something for nothing 70,
nothing. It is high time that Wig.
orous protest be made against this
encore habit in the interests of de.
cency, of fair play and Of common
onesty. Let merit receive APP

Captain of the Cincinnati Tells of the
 Receipt of Orders.

Washington, August 6.-The navy department today received the follow ing letter from Commander T. c. Mo Lean of the cruiser Cincinnati, dated La Guiara, July 10, in reply to the departments cabled instructions to him to protect Swedish and Norwe- gian vessels.
 Referring to the departments cablegram of July z, instructing me to give protection to Swedish and Nor wegian vessels, I report that I called on the consul general of Sweden and Norway at Caracas and acquainted him with the instructions and on the same day I sent an officer to La Gui- ara and also to each of the captains of three Norwegian barks of this port, offering them assistance and protec- tion if needed. The consul general at Caracas expressed his thanks for the courtesy. The vice consul and cap- tains of the barks called on me on board this ship and made grateful acknowledgement of the offers of pro- tection."

 When the four men comprising the crew, w. J. O'Donnell. gun pointer; E. Crowley, G. c. Grimm and A. w. Hide brand. had stepped forward by order of Lieutenant Phelps. the executive off, cer, the President addressing them said:
 T am very much pleased with the work you have done today and I want to say that if you keep up this record 1t will be difficult to find a better crew in the navy. In the training of first class gum pointers is the solution of the present efficiency of the gunners of tho navy
 The President shook hands with the members of the successful crew, as he did so pressed a S5 bill into the palm of each, but gave $20 to O'Donnen.
 Averting later to his giving of prizes to the successful gun crew, the President announced that he was in correspondence with the secretary of the navy regarding the matter of offering prizes for special excellence in gun pointing. He believes there is no better way to improve the craftsmanship of naval gunners than to
  The President, after giving the prizes, called the petty officers of the ship about him, and in a brief talk impressed upon them the importance of performing we'll their duties.
 Accompanied by Mrs. Roosevelt, the President boarded the naval yacht Sylph off Sagamore .Hill late yesterday after noon. The Sylph arrived in Block Island sound last night and came to anchor. In the morning she steamed up to the May flower lying near. The weather was thick with the clouds, dark and forbidding. As soon as the May1ower recognized the Presidents blue, green and gold pennant she roared out salute of twenty-one guns. A few minutes later the President leaving Mrs. Roosevelt on the Sylph, took a launch for the Mayfiower. The crew dressed ship, and as MT. Roosevelt went aboard and his own flag was broken out at the main peak, another saiute Of twen- ty-one guns was fired, the President re- maining standing and uncovered until its conclusion.
 Shortly afterward the real work of the day began. A regular naval target, six teen by twenty-one feet was located on a float two miles east of Gardiner's Point light buoy. Smokeless powder and full service charges were employed in the practice The distance of the target from the ship varied from 1900 10 1900 yards, and the vessel. during active firing, was under a speed of eight knots. The prac- tice continued for nearly six hours. At 5 clock the President left the May | flower for the Sylph. where he joined Mrs | Roosevelt. Saluted by both the Mayfiower | and the Chase, the training ship of the revenue cutter service, the President | sailed for Oyster Bay.

Green Port, L. L, August 6.-President Roosevelt today participated in mimic warfare. The maneuvers which the ship executed were precisely those which might have to be gone through in an ac- tive battle.
 The gun practice of the crew of the Mayflower indicates that the men be- hind the guns on board American war vessels are even more efficient and accu- rate than they were at the memorable battle of Manila Bay or at the decisive victory achieved by the American fleet off Santiago. The Hispano-American war demonstrated the fact that the United States navy contained fine marksmen, and the presence aboard the Mayfiower today of President Roosevelt was evil dence of his desire personally, and by every means in his power, to foster and improve this important branch of the work of the navy. To this end 1t is the purpose of the President to urge the necessity of continued target practice by the crews of American warships.
 After witnessing the work of the crew of No. 9 gun-the winners of the con- test-he personally went to the gun point CT, W. J. ODonnell. and shaking his hand, cordially said: You did well-ex- cellently."
 In an embarrassed manner oDonnell touched his forelock and really appeared as if he wished he had not done such fine work.
 The shooting of the winning gun crew was phenomenally good. At an average Fan of Pdu dn f1hf fu per cent of hits They fired twenty shots and made sixteen hits, two of them be- ing actual bullseyes. At the conclusion of the target practice the crew was as- sembled on the quarter dack to witness the presentation of the prizes offered by the President.
 Briefly, Mir Roosevelt addressed the officers and men as follows:
 q wish to say a word to all the officers and enlisted men of my qualification at the show you have made today. l hope this will be but the beginning of a prac- tlce which will make the Mayfiower stand as the crack gunship of the navy. One or two of the gun crews had hard luck notably the marines of the port one pounder, the gun which fired 2S shots. The target drifted and that makes the record no fair test as regards that crew. I am pleased with the showing you have made and l expect next time to see material improvement. Some of the crew show the need of it. Now. just one word to the enlisted men and the sailors, both to the men behind the gun and to those in the engine room, for without the men in the engine room the men at the guns can do nothing.

REPORT OF CHOLERA
 EPIDEMIC IS MADE
SURGEONS OF THE ARMY IN THE PHILIPPINES GIVES STATISTICS OF PERSONS AFFLICTED BY THE AsIATIc DISEASE.

Washington, August 6.-The bureau of insular affairs of the war department to- day received report from the board of health of the Philippine islands and city of Manila, dated May 15 1902 This re- port was prepared by Major L. M. Maus surgeon U. s. A., the commissioner of public health for the Philippine islands Its principal interest lies in the report of Asiatic cholorey from the date of its appearance in Manila, March 20, 1902, to the date of the report which shows that during that time one thousand and five cases of Asiatic cholera have been re- ported in Manila, 800 of whom died and 205 recovered. The cases in respect to nationality, deaths and mortality, were divided as follows
 Filipinos. S62 cases, 699 deaths; Chinese, 103 cases, T deaths; Americans, 23 cases, IS deaths; English, 13 cases, 10 deaths; Europeans and others cases 2 deaths
 From the beginning of the epidemic all eases, with few exceptions. were treat ed in cholera hospitals organized by the board of health.
 Major Maus calls attention to the splen- did work performed by the sisters of charity, who were sent there as nurses.
 There were practically no co-opera- tion among the natives in regard to re- porting cases occurring in their families, and for this reason it became necessary to employ large number of men act ing as sanitary inspectors.
 There is no doubt the report says, but that the ordinary household fly can transfer the cholera spirilum from infect ed matter to food. as is the case with typhoid fever. The board of health has inaugurated a crusade against flies by means of fly poison, and has also be- gun the destruction of maggots in the ESteroS.

DEFEAT ACkNOWLEDEG.
Inspector Gomez Confirms Report of
 Defeat of Revolutionary Forces.

Panama, August GA. message has been received from Telegraph Inspector Gomez. at San Carlos confirming the news of the defeat at Agua Dulce of the revolutionary forces under General Hererra.
 Inspector Gomez says that two govern ment soldiers of the Fifth battalion of Cali, who were prisoners of the revolu- tionists, have escaped and report that when they left the enemy the latter had scarcely any ammunition for small arms and consequently could only fire their cannon. The liberal generals, Busta- mente and Sotomayer are reported to have been killed. The escaped men said also that most of the revolutionists were being forced to fight by their cf- ficers and that this was causing numer- ous assertions from their ranks.
