Forbidden by Regulations.

The District Commissioners have received
a letter from John c. Walker requesting
favorable action on the application recently
filed through H. A. Campbell for a permit
to build a temporary shed on the lot oppo-
site his store. at the corner of goth and P
streets northwest, to be used as store
room. The inspector of buildings has re-
ported that shed of the character re-
quested could not be permitted under the
building regulations within the fire limits
An exception in this case, believing that
such a course would establish a precedent
to the embarrassment of the officers, will
not be allowed. 1t is suggested that Mr.
Walker might make an arrangement to
share the temporary shed authorized for
the use of the builder during the construc-
ton of the new store for Mr.. Walker. He
only desired to use the shed temporarily

Jones. The wedding was the elimination
of an interesting series Of events in which
Cupid is said to have figured quite promi-

According to advices from Baltimore the

That afternoon all wedding arrangements
were made, and the ceremony was to have
been performed that evening at o'clock at
Emmanuel German Lutheran Church by the
pastor, Rev. Timothy A. H. Stiemke. The
young man and his prospective bride were
out driving in the afternoon, and all was
apparently serene when they separated
Miss Gliewe arrayed herself in her wedding
gown and awaited the coming of the groom.

ACCORDING TO MERIT
NAVY'S CIVIL PAY ROLL TO BE
REVISED.
Circular Instructions Sent Out by
Secretary Moody to Commandments
of Yards and Stations.

Secretary Moody has sent a circular to
chiefs of bureaus Of the Navy Department
commandments of navy yards and stations
and officers in charge of naval work gen.
orally, calling attention to section Of the
act of Congress approved February "a, 1899.
providing that the appropriations made by
that act shall not be available for the COM
pensation of any person permanently inca
pacitated for performing such service and
prohibiting the establishment Of civil pen
sion roll or an honorable service roll, etc.
Referring to this section Secretary Moody
says in his circular:
Prior to sending in the efficiency records
for the six months ended June 80. 1902, 1
desire that specific and careful considera-
ton be given to the work performed in each
office for the purpose of determining wheth-
er or not employees receiving the higher
rates Of pay are performing duties COM
mensurate with their pay and have the
ability to perform duties. other than
routine, which constantly arise in the
course Of business. In each case where the
demonstrated actual efficiency shows that
a high-grade clerk is not considered capable
of performing work that would entitle him
to his present salary and that the demon
strated actual efficiency by a lower paid
clerk shows that the latter Is capable of
performing work which would entitle him
to a higher rate Of pay, the former should
be recommended for reduction and the lat
ter for promotion. However, it should be
thoroughly understood that 1t is not the in
tention of the department that the present
cost of clerical work should be increased
as. whole, but that the work and pay
should be readjusted on the score of actual
efficiency and merit. The Recommendations
for disrating and promotion should be &C.
companied by q specific statement of the
cause therefor. which should show that the
action was taken for the best interests Of
the public service"

hshment Of the navy are affected by the

crackers and Other Mild Ex-
plosives Permitted.

Major Sylvester today issued an order to
the members of the police department re-
speeding fireworks and the Fourth of July
celebration in general. The order is some
what similar to that issued last year. One
important change is the provision which
prohibits the use of firecrackers exceeding
three inches in length instead of three
and half inches, as was the case last
year. The order reads:
In conformity with article 8, section 5, of
the police regulations, relating to loud

caps) or fireworks within the District OF
Columbia, except that the sale, storage or
discharge of dangerous bombs. toy cannons,
toy pistols less than five inches in length, and
frecrackers of any manufacture exceeding
three inches in length and three-Quarters
of an inch in diameter is strictly prohibited
and where persons are careless or disorder
ly in the use Of firecrackers, squibs or fire
works they will be amenable to the opera

ham was much surprised to meet a lawyer,
instead of minister. The attorney ex-
planned that there were some papers TO be
signed before the wedding should proceed
and they had better repair to his office
There Cunningham says he was told that
he would have TO pay all the court charges
on the suit brought against him and also
make over his property to the young lady.
This he refused to do, and the wedding was
again postponed.
Several days interviewed since the meeting
in the attorneys office, and during tnat
time the young man and his first love met
several times. Saturday last Miss Parrish
agreed to go to Washington and be married
Good fortune was with them this time, and
the couple were united in matrimony Sun

Bishop whipple Aanswered.

Early in his career as a missionary
to the Indians the late Bishop Whipple
had journeyed into the Indian country
to preach a sermon to the assembled
Chippewas in Chief Good Thunder's
village. Bishop Whipple had with him
the costly garments of his Office which
he wore on such occasions, and it be-
came necessary to leave them un-
guarded in the chiefs tepee. 1t seems
that the bishop had his doubts at that
time as to the inherent honesty of the
average Indian. Before leaving he ask
ed, turning to Good Thunder:
"Chief, do you think 1t will be safe
to leave them here%
''Never fear, bishop" was the reply;
"there isn't white man within three
miles Of here."-New York Times.

Harvesting with Automobiles.

The cost of harvesting wheat on the
Pacific coast has been so lessened by
the use of automobiles that greater
amount of the grain can be produced at
the same actual expense than in the Ar
gentine Republic, where labor costs
only fraction of dollar day. The
large automobile traction engines now
used In California are of fifty horse
power and are provided with driving
wheels sixty inches in diameter. They
do the blowing, planting and harvest

tion engine performs the triple work of

KINGS AND THEIR DINNERS.
Carlos of Portugal and British Beef
King Eiward's Taste Is Homeiv.

Carlos of Portugal and British Beef
King Eiward's Taste Is Homeiy.
Being very fat, the King of Portugal
Is forbidden by his physicians to eat
much meat. He, calmly disobeys the
doctors, however. and is especially fond
Of beef, of which he eats great quanti-
ties. When he visited England a few
years ago he was stopping at Lord Sal
isbury's country seat, where also King
Edward was guest. One day at dinner
King Carlos was asked what had i'm
pressed him most during his short stay
in England.
He replied thoughtfully, "Well,
think English roast beef is very delight
full"
oh" said King Edward with a
laugh, surely something else has i'm
pressed you as well?'
"Ah," was the reply, "of course the
English boiled beef also is delightful" ="
The dish dearest to the heart of Will
lam Of Germany is sauerkraut, served
with sausages and bacon fried together.
The Kaiser also is passionately fond Of
beer soup, made up of potatoes, onions
and beer. The Kaisers cooks are
strictly limited as regards table ex-
penses, and never are allowed more
than very limited sum for each per-
son meal, unless, of course, there is a
state dinner, when the allowance Is
more liberal.
AS to what King Edward eats, he is
happily possessed Of f1rst-class diges-
ton, and thus 1t Is very seldom that
anything which he eats disagrees with
him to any extent. Therefore it Is his
custom, and one which his medical ad-
visers are thoroughly in agreement
with, to eat just what he most fancies
at the time, and to cease eating only
when, according to an old-fashioned
and sound principle, he has reached
that stage when little more would be
acceptable, but Is not necessary. When
King Edward is in the country he likes
a good substantial country breakfast,
with fish, meats, and all the rest of 1t.
Luncheon, at about two o'clock, Is
very simple meal, and as regards it the
King has no particular preferences ex-
cept one for quietness. When he can
avoid 1t, he does not like entertaining
to lunch, and as Prince of Wales did not
often do so, preferring to take the meal
alone with his family, since it was sell
dom practicable to make dinner SIM
pie domestic event in this way. Dinner
Is limited to an hour, and late supper
Is one of the most important meals Of
the day.-Mainly About People.
