NIBLACK IS
WAITING ORDERS
HAS NOT RECEIVED COMMISSION
AND ORDERS AS YET As SUCH
INSPECTOR OF LIGHTHOUSES.

Captain Niback received cable
gram yesterday from the Navy De-
partment announcing that he had been
appointed assistant inspector in charge
of the sub lighthouse district of Ha-
wall Captain Niblacks commission
and official orders have not arrived as
yet, but they are expected any time.
They will come from the Department
of Commerce and Labor.
The plans of the new inspector are
uncertain. He has received no orders
and until they arrive, he will not be in
position to take any action regard
ing the lighthouse system of the Ha-
waiian Islands. 1t is not unlikely that
as inspector, he will have to make a
tour of inspection of the district. Cap
tain Rodman of the [. 5. Iriquois has
made number of recommendations re-
garding the necessity of new lights a.
bout the islands. Captain Niblack will
no doubt, be assisted i'm this matter by
the recommendations of Captain Rod
man. although the recommendations
made by Captain Rodman will not be
binding upon the new inspector The
Hawaiian islands are attached to light
house district No. u which is the CAL
ifornia District. Lieut.. Commander J..
B. Milton is in charge.
No appropriation has been made by
Congress for the care of the lighthouses
of Hawaii. The Territorial govern
ment has been requested to carry the
system for one month. Congress will
be asked to make up the deficiency APP
preparation to reimburse the Territorial
government for the expense of main
tanning the system for January. A
regular appropriation to continue the
system after January, will be asked of
and probably be made by Congress.

WILL DRAW A CROWD.
Advance Box Office Indications of the
Weday-Barry Contest.

The box office at the Orpheum opened
for the sale of seats in connection with
the big boxing contest between Weday
and Barry on Friday evening, and
from present prospects every one in
town is going to be there.
The tactics and conditions of the men
are such as to practically ensure q
lengthy contest and as that is precisely
what the sporting public are always
looking for, and very seldom getting,
the popularity of Fridays fight is eX-
planned.
With the prospects of a good mai.l
event and the promise of good prelim-
inaries it is refreshing to note that I'M
presario Cohen has not followed coast
customs and sent up the prices but has
rather marked them down. 81, 81 and
IS for a good program is not at all eX-
orbitant when one remembers the hea-
Wy purses that are hung up for contest
ants.

Senator Childs of Somerset Win

ming New Friends
Senator Childs of Somerset, who with
his family, is residing at the Bolding
House for the winter, is rapidly adding
to his already extensive acquaintance in
this city. The Senator in addition to
being an up-to-date business man in
every respect. has already acquired the
reputation at Trenton of carefully watch
ing the bills as submitted. His quiet
and unassuming manner have already
made him favorite with the Republi.
can majority in the Senate.
In winter he finds a great deal of
recreation in bowling. He is a mem

Born in Somerset, he is not afraid to

set during the summer, with only the
limited schooling in winter allowed the
average country boy. However, he
studied hard, and when in 1887 he was
appointed to West Point as a alternate,
he succeeded by hard study in obtaining
a high rank in his class, solely upon
merit. His record there was of the best
order. Hard study threatened to under
mine his sturdy constitution and his
resignation from the military academy
was followed by season spent on a
large wheat ranch in the far west
With some previous experience in the
restaurant business, he made that as his
wont, a study, the result being that to-
day he stands at the head of the entire
system of Childs' restaurants, which

RAILROAD NOTES.

A report has been current for the past
few days that the Erie Railroad com
pany will soon start to carry out its plan
for an open cut through Jersey City
heights.
Contract was let Wednesday last by
the Erie Railroad for three new ferry
boats for service between New York and
Jersey City. These boats are to be
double-de ked, 1926 feet long and GA feet
wide. They are to have propellers at
each end and will be the fastest and
most comfortable boats on the North
River. Special attention has been given
to the question of cabin ventilation, and
separate toilet rooms will be provided
for men and women.
Plans covering the arrangement of
tracks in the Pennsylvania railroad 'sNew
York tunnel and also for the handling
of passengers and baggage in the gl eat
station have been fully worked out. The
main station will be between Seventh
and Eighth avenues, where there will
be twenty-five tracks, arranged in pairs
with passenger platforms between each
pair long enough to take fifteen cars.
West to Ninth avenue the tracks will be
extended for storage uses. East of the
terminal the tracks will converge into
four, each of which will run under the
East River in separate tube. Under the
Hudson River the plans call for two
tunnels. At the station the tracks will be
forty-two feet below the street level, but
this depth is to be made to seem less by
placing the passenger waiting rooms and
ticket offices on floor just half way
down. Baggage and mail matter will be
handled at about Eighth avenue.

Rabbits Feet in Demand.

"The past season." said New York
dealer in game, brought an unusual de-
mand for rabbits feet. The manufact-
urers of novelties took all we could give
them. For several years they have been
made into charms, showing that the old
superstition, instead of dying out, is be-
coming more popular than ever. A cafe
proprietor downtown invested in 500 to
give to his patrons on New Years Day.
He had them mounted on cards, with a
suitable inscription setting forth the
merits of each as a harbinger of good luck
of the left hind foot of rabbit killed at
midnight in churchyard, and so on.
o.. course, they weren't all left hind fee,
half of them weren't hind feet at all
but the sentiment was there, just the
same.

(Wrltten for the Chronicle.
II wish, +" said maiden, chat I had
lived
In some old Medieval age,
When men were heroes, and women
were saints,
Attended by Knight and page;
Or that had lived when wars rude cry
Rang loud Ger the troubled land
would bind the soldiers feverish wound
With woman's gentle hand
COR that had lived when Jesus lived
In that old Judean street,
Whose very stones bore the marks of
blood,
And the print of his blessed feet;
That might repulse the cruel mob
AS they smote his sinless head,
l would with the women others there
Weep over the precious dead.
But to live in this prosaic age"
She sighed as the feeling grew
"'Tis enough to drive one mad" she
said,
with nothing at all to do"
She walked to the window and looking
out,
With fixed and stony stare,
Saw not the pitiless rain beating down,
On a drenched form standing there.
Whose features were pinched with
hunger,
Whose form was thinly clad,
Surely sorrow and want had laid it's
hand
On one with face so sad;
Who drew near the window to catch
the CLEAN
OF the fire on the tiled hearth,
The maid needed moi, she had scared
too far
From the petty things on earth.
She shivered and drew the silken scarf
Close over the window pane,
With only glance at the shivering form
Out in the drenching rain.
Inside there were warmth and light and
love,
Outside there was nothing to see.
Harki "Inasmuch as we have done unto
the least of these
Ye have done it unto Me-"
1t is oclish to look to foreign lands,
Or pity the wide world DER:
At home we have eyes that are weary,
And many hearts that are sore.
1t is easy to wish for impossible things
Or to sigh for fame's glamour,
While we shut our ears to sorrows cry.
Calling loud at the very door.

The Millionaire" at paIy,s.

The term 'howling success was
never more aptly applied to any attract
ion presented on the American stage
than to Jerome Sykes performance Of
John Doe" in Klaw & Erlanger's mag
nificent production of 1.-The Billionaire"
at Days Theatre, where all records of
this house since it was built have been
broken FIom the time the curtain rises
till it falls on the last scene, the audi
fence is kept in roar of laughter In
fact, when the people leave the theatre
they are actaully tired from merriment
1.-The Billionaire" is oneof the strongest
appeals to the humorous side of human
nature that has been originated in years.
Although comic interest predominates
the piece, there is much in it that is a
response to the artistic, especially in the
scenery and costumes and in several of
the more important musical numbers.
Klaw & ErlAnger display very happy
faculty for getting together comic
show that is artistic in the highest sense
and is humorous without resort to coarse
play and low buffooner,. Their great
success in this line of productions is I'M
questionably due to the fact that they
appeal to refined people and present
such attractions in manner acceptable
to them. They aim at the highest stand
ard in all that they do. The result is the
best people are Klaw 6 Erlanger's sup
porters and follow their attractions and
projects with unusual interest.
