"Tea and toast.' was the laconic re-
spouse.
Gen. Booth acquired this habit in his
early years, when, during the course
of days work, he would take tea and
toast as stimulant, for then, as now,
he worked IA and 16 hours a day. He
has never been able to break the Gus
tom thus formed
Perhaps l could" he once said to a
friend, but then I'd have to break the
habit of working IA hours each day;
and don't expect to do this until |
die"
The general is 70 years old, but he
shows no sign of breaking down. 1t
is not an uncommon thing for him to
keep six secretaries busy taking let
tiers for an unbroken stretch of eight
or ten hours.
1t was while debating to secretary
that Gen. Booth got his idea of the
present name of the movement of
which he is the head. At first he called
it the Christian Mission. One day, as
he was debating a circular on the
Christian Missions work, he said:
1.-THE Christian Mission is volunteer
army" and wrote salvation" above
it. The Salvation Army will be our
new name" he exclaimed.
Gen. Booth attributes his ability to
wear out his secretaries and assistants
largely TO traits which enable him to
put aside care at an instant's notice
and to see the humor that lies in all
things.

TEDDY'S APPOINTEE
OF Color in the City as Revenue
Inspector.

The first colored revenue inspec-
tor who has visited this city for
many years past came yesterday
morning and during the day visited
many places of business looking
after the interest of the federal
government. The inspector in
question is named White and was
appointed to the revenue service
out of Louisville, where he prac-
ticed law as a profession before re-
ceiving the federal job. He APP
pears to be about As years old and
acted very gentlemanly in pushing
his inspections around the places
where governmental stamps are
used, such as cigar factories,
whiskey houses and other like
places.
During the day the negro visited
many of the places and made his
in a manner showing
he is familiar with his business.
Upon entering some of the places
the proprietors were at first
dubious as to his right to inspecl
the places, but upon producing his
documents authorizing him to do
so he was given full liberty of in
tion.-Paducah Register.

1t is understood that the senator is
the principal sponsor of Mr.. Thomp-
son in his diplomatic aspiration. The
compensation Of the post to which he
is appointed is $4,000 per annum, and
while in recent years it has not been
the scene of any particular diplomatic
episodes, it is believed that, owing to
the pending dispute between Brazil,
Bolivia and Peru over the territory of
Acre, and the necessity in the near
future of Encouragement of tariff
arrangements between Brazil and the
United States, Mr.. Thompson's post
will offer considerable opportunities
for personal distinction.

DWIGHT PLACE CHURCH.
THE S0TH ANNIVERSARY CELE-
BRATED YESTERDAY.

Rev. DR.. Leete Relates Features Of the
Chureh's Early History-FIne Music
in the Evening-AnnaaI nIeetiBgs
This Week.
Last Friday marked the passing of the
thirtieth anniversary of the founding Of
Dwight Place Congregational church
and in consequence the services held
yesterday were in the nature of cele-
bratiOn of the event. At the morning
service the church was filed to it's ca
pacity and the quarterly communion
was observed by very large number Of
the members. There was a reception of
new members, fourteen being received
to the communion. The sermon was
preached by the pastor. the Rev. Dr.
w. W. Leete. and although his address
was short he related some OF the pre-
vious history of the church. He told of
the devotion of the members when it
was first organized and of their sin
certify of purpose and determination to
carry out the plans which they had
arranged. The new church was complet-
ed with a debt of about $4,000, but
they We're not daunted, and in 1876 the
church rolls had 249 names. These
same faithful ones faced this great
debt with stout hearts and full of
faith so that in 1892 the last cent was
paid and there was great rejoicing. The
pastor spoke of the good which had
been done by the presence Of the church
tn bo Of I1o 90 Tn
membership, that there was now over
five times the number Of communicates
as in 1876. The experiences connected
with the raising Of the funds to meet
the payments on the debt were related
briefly, but Interestingly.
In the evening another Of the fine
musical programmes was given by the
recently organized choral society assist
ed by the choir Of the church. The pro-
gramme was as has been published and
the several selections were nicely rem
dered. The discourse by the pastor was
on the general topic Of 1.-The Church in
the World"
This week is to be an important one
in the history of the church. The an
nual meeting of the Ecclesiastical socie-
ty will be held tonight, at which time
much business Of Importance is to be
| considered. On Tuesday evening COM
mencing at 1880 there will be the annual
meeting of the church proper when Of
f1cers +or the year will be elected and
reports given. 1t is hoped that there
will be a very large attendance at this
meeting. On Wednesday evening at
the same hour there will be a fellow
ship meeting and conference. Messages
from absent members will be read and
other matters of interest in the past
history of the church will be reviewed.
Names Of those now living who assist
| ed in the formation Of the church in 1872
will be read.

ENTERTAINMENT s.


SOUSA'S BAND AT THE HYPERION
John Philip Sousa is at present en-
gagged upon a regular winter concert
tour with his famous band, his twenty
first semi-annual pilgrimage of the
kind with his own organization. The
success of Sousa has no parallel in mu-
steal history in this country, having
been achieved by his own indomitable
energy and unaided efforts. Sousa is
American born, of American educa-
ton, uninfiuenced by foreign schools,
and he typifies in his person and his
career the highest standards of Ameri-
can achievement in his own field of en-
deavor. This hold upon public favor
and affection is perhaps due largely to
the fact that Sousa is honest with his
public and ever gracious in his rela-
tons with them. Certain 1t Is that the
March King was never held in such
high esteem as at present, and the
financial and popular success of his
great band now eclipses all it's former
records. SOusa will bring his band here
for two concerts at the Hyperion on
Saturday, December 10, matinee and
night. Seat sale Wednesday. Prices,

sort of help could, be expected from
New York. Most of them were sur
prisingly ignorant of local conditions
and sentiment in New York, but We're
anxious to learn, and were above all
DESTROYS of doing nothing which would
not have the Empire states support
They werea so ignorant of New York
affairs that they recognized Lewis
Nixon as the actual instead of the
merely nominal head of Tammany hail.
They began a quiet and persistent
canvass of New York opinion. They
consulted with everybody whom they
considered representative of New
York sentiment, and found sufficient
ground to believe that New York
would be with them. They attacked
and overthrow Bryan, though some Of
them were personal friends of his and
most of them had been his strong sup
porters.
During the progress of their work the
main question before them was the
presidential canvass of 1904. Their de-
sire was to get candidate who would
have the support Of New York. They
were informed that the New York dem
ocrats expected to elect governor in
place of Mr.. Odell, and they at once
reached the conclusion that the gov
ernor so elected must be the candidate
Of the democrats for president in 1904
When they consulted with New York
democrats they always wound up by
asking who would be the gubernator-
ia1 candidate, and were generally told
that it would be Judge Parker. When
Congress adjourned it was the fixed
opinion of most of the southern and
western democrats in Congress that
Judge Parker would be nominated and
elected governor Of New York, and
would consequently be the candidate
for president in the next campaign. :
Under this belief they went home
and tipped OFF, their friends to watch
out for Parker; that he would be the
next president. In this way Parker
boom was started, and although 1t was
extremely quiet, it made great head
way among the democratic politicians
Nobody knew much about Judge Park
err, but everybody was told that he
could and would carry New York, and
that he was the only man who could
do so.
The New York state convention up
set the programme. Judge Parker was
not nominated, and the plans formed
here in Washington went by the board.
But in the meantime the Parker boom
had taken root and grown to such an
extent that it is still f1ourishing, and
fiourishing even more vigorously than
it did before. The very fact that no.
body in the west and south knows
much about him prevents any one from
criticisng or opposing the boom, and its
growth is therefore unchecked by the
hostility that manifests itself as soon
as the name Of a man of national repu-
tation is mentioned.-Major ). M. Car

Few know that there is a vegzc sTi3a
church, a church whose chief tenet Is
that men shall eat no meat. This
church has only one meeting house in
America and only forty members here.
In England it has only one meeting
house and only seventy-hve members.

of the taste of meat as ordinary per
sons are ignorant of the taste of hu-
man flesh. For yegetarianism is the
chief article of their creed.
With their century of abstinence
from meat they afford a good example
of the effect of vegetarianism on man
kind. Their records, which appear to
have been kept carefully, cover about
three hundred cases, and show that:

A Romance Of Moth Balls With a
Moral Attached Thereto.
The suspicious habit. which pos
sess to such an unfortunate degree,
was the cause last evening of my being
made to feel like a toy pistol in the
Zulu wars" remarked q man who tells
'em on himself Il was in a hurry to
get down town, and as the evening was
chilly, I asked my wife to fish out for
me my last springs top coat. put
the garment on in a hurry and made
rush for a Fourteenth street car. The
car was pretty well filled up, but I
found a seat between a couple of fell
lows who. to, had diked themselves out
in their top coats.
Il hadn't more than got my seat
warm before 1 noticed an overpowering
aroma Of moth balls, Some folks like
the fragrance of moth balls, but don't.
There was no way for me to move
away from those two young fellows on
either side of me with their top coats
on. but I squirmed around i'll my seat
and looked Il plenty disguised, I dare
say.
It's a wonder said l to myself,
that those ducks wouldn't have strung
their top coats off on the back yard
line for a few hours before clapping
'em onto their backs and smelling up
a public car like a fumigating factory
I suppose l did a good deal of sniff
fling before observed that the chaps on
either side of me were shifting, too.
One Of them, in fact, very shortly be-
gan to snort, and at length both of
them got up from their seats and went
out and stood on the cars rear plat
form. I couldn't make out this move,
and concluded that they themselves
were so disguised with the moth ball
doors attaching to their top coats that
they had concluded to go out where the
wind could blow on them. The moth
ball smell didn't diminish when they
went out to the PLATFORM however. and
concluded that they had so impreg-
mated the car with aroma that it would
take some time for it to disappear.
Soon l began to think about the
business that was taking me down
town, and when 1 wanted to use a
handkerchief. my hand mechanically
drifted to the left hand outside pocket
of my top coat. The handkerchief that
1 yanked out Of that pocket has been
left in there when l stopped using the
coat last spring. l wouldn't have mind
ed 1t if the handkerchiefs had been the
only thing that I pulled out of the
pocket-but it wasn't. About II miser-
able little white-yaller moth balls came
along with it. My wife had stuffed
them into the coat before putting it
away for the warm weather.
I stared blankly at the moth balls
| flying around on the floor of the car,
and when l looked up 1 observed that
the passengers across the aisle We're
| staggering. They had observed my
shifting over the moth balls when l en-
tered the car, and, of course they snig-
gered. l looked out to the rear plat
| form, and I saw the two young chaps
| who had been the victims of my sus-
picion holding their sides. I sneaked
! guilty off the car. The next time l
turn my nose up haughtily in public
place, I'm going to give myself a good
looking over and find out where l stand
and how l stack up first. Washington
