Food for Fighting Forces.

THE inventive genius of the Americans
has been greatly in evidence of late years
in the production of foods fit for the sus-
tenance of soldiers on long marches said
Mr.. James Tracy Hill, of Chicago, at
the Raleigh.
I'm this line l think, our inventors have
gone away ahead of those of any other
country. Here is little tablet that has
been for three years in the Philippines,
and l warrant it as fresh as the day it
was made.
From 1t six palatable and nourishing
bowls of soup can be made, and it will not
take up any more room in a mans pocket
than a match box. A soldier can break
off a section, prepare himself bowl OF
soup and keep the remainder for future
use. 1t is the greatest thing in the way of
a condensed food that has yet been dis
covered +"

Euterpe Club Musicale.

The musicale of the Euterpe Club,
which was given last night the Wash
ington Club, was attended by large and
select audience that fully enjoyed and
appreciated the efforts of the various par
ticipants. There was considerable dissat-
isfaction on the part of the audience,
however, on account of the shortness OF
the programme. Mr.. Fronani, the musi-
cal director of the club, has given assur-
ances that in the future they will consist
of more than six short numbers.
Miss Rose Sliney sang A. Gordon
Thomas recitative and aria from Ma
deschda' in a charming manner. Her
voice is a light soprano and particularly
suited to small concerts. Miss Florence
Stevens, the well-known violin yirtuoso
of this city, played in a highly accom-
plished manner, demonstrating her fine
technique and understanding, Pierne's
"Serenade" and Selected
Mr. Paul W. Fishbaugh followed with
Iljinsky's berceuse. op. I3. and Schar-
wenkas Polish Dance" Both pieces were
presented with that inesse and feeling
which are the result of diligent study and
faithful application.
Mr.. Charles Stuart Alden sang Bucks
Until Gods Day and Early One Morn
ing" Mr.. Alden's efforts were appreei-
ated. Mrs. Ivy Herriott Shade. who fol-
lowed, is well known TO Washington con-
cert goers. She possesses an agreeable,
clear and strong soprano voice, and in
her accustomed finished style sang
Gounod's Romeo and Juliet" and Roeck-
els Looks and Eyes"
The last number on the interesting pro-
gramme was Chaminad's "Intermede' for
two pianos, executed by Miss Louise
Mitchell and Miss Anna L. Marshall.

Exultation All Around.

Philadelphia Times-Here is chance
for more "spreadeagleism." 'Old Glory"

the garrisons as well as the nag, II we
are to exult at all.

Loss of Colonies Beneficial.

Mr. r. F. Bevan, of Malaga, Spain who
is guest of the New Willard is one Of
the few Americans engaged in business
in that part of the world.
II have lived in Spain" said he, for
SO many years that it seems like home.
though l am glad to get back to my ma
tive land occasionally. My belief is that
the loss of her colonies will, in the long
run, be beneficial to Spain, for it will
cause concentration of effort upon the
development of home resources. The re-
cent riots occurred since my departure
from the country. but do not deem them
of any great consequence"

Much Pleased With the South.

Gov. Richard Yates, chief executive OF
Illinois, who was domiciled at the Arling-
ton during his limited stay in Washing
ten, in brief talk with Times reporter,
said:
I'VE had three very delightful days in
Charleston. The old Southern seaport is
quaint and interesting place, and the
people fully sustained their reputation
for courtesy and hospitality. The expo
sition has many meritorious features, but
does not seem to receive the local pa
tronage that it ought to command"
Governor Yates pleasantly asked to be
excused from talking about Illinois poll
tics. 1t is known that he is enthusiastic
ally supporting the candidacy of Con-
gressman Hopkins for the United States
Senate. and members of the Governor $
party. who were not so reserved, declared
that Mr.. Hopkins had already as good as
won the seat now held by Senator Mason.

De,arey's Motive.

New York Press-Lord Kitchener
thinks this sudden revival Of activity on
the part of Delarey is TO draw of the
troops pressing De Wet" 1t must be
comforting to the British to feel that the
capture OF Lord Methuen and the rout of
his column were not without motive
Englishmen are thus saved the humilia-
tion of the thought that General Delarey' g
activity" was simply TO provide exercise
for his horses and rifle practice for his
burghers.

CURRENT PRESS COMMENT.
The Americanization of China

St Louis Star-Matters are progressing
very satisfactorily at Peking Mrs Con-
ger, wife OF the American Minister, is
making arrangements to give a reception
to Chinese princesses. This is a step in
the right direction. One American wo-
man, if she is allowed to take hold of
the matter in her Own way, can do more
toward Americanizing China than whole
regiment of men.

Noting an Exception.

Louisville Courier Journal - Prince
Henry thinks that music is born in the
heart without distinction of race or color.
This may be interpreted as compliment
TO the musical capabilities OF the Amer
lean of African descent. Presumably the
prince has had no opportunity to test the
music produced by the untutored aborigi-
nal American, or he might have thought
st necessary to hedge little on the point
of race or color.

There can be no reduction in Sa-
lem's city tax levy for next year At
a conference Of the members of the
council. that was held recently. IL was
decided 10 levy the maximum tax Of
10 mills again this year for municipal
purposes. and the additional tax now
required by law Of / y mills for road
work Two propositions were consid-
cred by the aldermen; a reduction in
the tax levy or an increase IN the sal
airy Of the men in the police and fire
department. and also she street com.
missioner. An advance in the salaries
OF the subordinate city authorities
could not be granted and a reduction
also made In the levy. Increased sal
aries for these men was decided 70
be I'm the interest Of the best service
TO the municipality, and this extreme
levy OF 10 mills was approved by the
council Il is the general opinion To-
cally that the citys employees are en-.
titled to better wages than they have
been receiving. The two efficient night
policemen have been receiving a
monthly salary OF only $50 each. which
Is considered entirely inadequate for
the services rendered The recon.
mendations Of the council will be EN-.
bodied in an ordinance for formal
adoption at the regular meeting Of the
council on Tuesday evening, when the
city's expenditures and probable re.
ceipts for the ensuing year win be es.
timated, and the tax levy ordered; The
increase in the salary of the employ.

be nominal, but IL is expected will
