THE ARMY-NAVY GAMES.
Midshipmen Working For Con-
tinuance of The Great
Foot Ball Games.

The midshipmen are making an effort
to have the annual contest in football
between the Navy and Army. The chief
topic of conversation among them at the
present time is continuance Of the game
this year between the two teams.
There is a strong sentiment among the
midshipmen and large number Of naval
officers to have the game played under
present conditions and not to allow the
contests to be discontinued on ahcount
of disagreement over eligibility rules,
although still maintaining that the navy S
position is entirely reasonable and just.
A recent graduate OF the Naval Acad-
envy and prominent football player has
been circulating petition among the
officers of the North Atlantic Squadron,
soliciting their support in having the
games continued II is said that among
the army men there is a similar eager
ness for a continuance of the annual
contests between the elevens of the two
national institutions of learning.
The members ofthe committee, officers
from each institution, who alone have
the power to act in the matter, are still,
lishment Of eligibility rules, and there is
no intimation that the contention over
this point is likely to be settled in time
for the game to be played this year In
the event OF the Army Navy game being
discontinued. it is said that the big game
of the season for the navy would prob
ably be played in Washington with a
prominent Southern college team.

PRICE ONE GENT
FOR NAVAL INCREASE.
Battleships And Scout Ships
Recommended For The
Next Fiscal Year.

Secretary Of the Navy Moody is con
sidering the question of naval increase
tor the next fiscal year. Il is probable he
will recommend to Congress the construc-
ton OF about three first class battleships
OF not less than 10000 tons displacement
and two small scout ships, the details OF
which have not been determined
The difficulty in designing efficient
ships OF 1900 tons is admitted N the
Navy Department. Members of the
Board on construction say il is imposs-
ible to get ships with this tonnage to
develop speed of not less than eighteen
knots and still carry heavy armament
Although two ships OF this type were
authorized by the last Congress in add.
ton to three batleships OF 10000 tons.
the Board on Construction has not yet
been able TO agree on their chief charac-
teristlcs. and consequently their compile
Il n will be greatly delayed.
Secretay Moody, it is understood has
made himself acquainted with the views
OF the members of the House and Senate
Naval committees on the question OF
naval increase. Ii is not deemed expedi-
ent by either the Navy Department Off
Gals or the members of these committees
to lay down any definite building pro-
gram, but nearly every member OF the
committee favors yearly appropriations
Tor an increase in naval vessels.

Death of Commander Hughes

Rear-Admiral P. H. Cooper, COM
manding the Northern Squadron Of the
Asiatic feet, has advised the Navy De-
partment by cable Of the death at the
Yokohama Hospital Sunday of Com
mander E. M. Hughes. He was as
signed to duty last November on the
Asiatic Station in command Of the gum
boat Annapolis. He entered the SER
vice in 1866, and for conspicuous SER
vice was awarded an additional number
in grade.
Commander Edward M. Hughes was
with Admiral Dewey at the battle of
Manila bay, and was advanced in num-
Der for conspicuous gallantry on that
occasion. He was executive officer of
the gunboat Petrol during that memora
Bile engagement and commanded the
party which burned the Spanish ships.
Commander Hughes was appointed
to the Naval Academy from at large in
Iuly, 1866, and reached the grade of
commander in March, 1901. Since No
vember last he has been in command of
the Annapolis. in charge of surveying
work in the Philippines. 1t was while
engaged in that work that he broke down
a short time ago and was invalided to
the hospital at Yokohama.

NOW THEY MAY SMOKE.
First Classmen At The Naval
Academy May "Hit
The Pipe"

There is rejoicing at the Naval Acad-
emy today, and there will be more re-
ioicing tomorrow, when all of the first
classmen shall have returned to report
for duty at the Naval Academy at the
opening of the academic year.
Not rejoicing because Of being "up
against" the routine work again, but
because the edict has gone forth that
first classmen may smoke. Midshipmen
of the first class at the Naval Academy
are to be granted the privilege Of smoking
in their quarters. A recommendation to
this effect was received by Secretary OF
the Navy Moody yesterday from Captain
Brownson, superintendent Of the Naval
Academy, and will be approved
This action follows the lead taken by
the Var Department in allowing the
cadets to smoke in quarters at West
Point. In his letter to the Navy Depart
ment Captain Brownson says that, in
view Of the shortage of commissioned
officers at the Academy, increased re-
sponsibilities and dignities have fallen to
the members of the first class. many of
whom are. in measure, acting as in
structors TO the younger midshipmen
He, therefore, fayors giving the young
men of the first class more privileges.
and sees no reason, if they care to smoke,
why they should not be allowed to do so
Although Captain Brownson does not
say so in his letter, department officials
say that, in view of the fact that the
young men smoke anyhow, il is better to
give some sanction to the practice. which
can thus be held in check, so as to
prevent excesses. For the present the
members of the lower classes at the,
Academy are not to be allowed to smoke,
but it is thought probable that eventually
the privilege will be extended also to the
second class. II will probably never be
given to the third and fourth classes.

Return From Canada

Aberdeen Special: A party OF five
Brule county farmers were in Aber-
deem yesterday between trains on their
way home from the Canadian north
west and expressed themselves as not
at all pleased with the country they
had visited and where they had ex-
pected to take up land belonging to
the government II buy land that was
partially improved. One Of them,
Gust Gabrielson of Dunlap, declared
that he would not live in that region
for anything. He has been in South
Dakota for twenty years and nothing
would induce him to go from this
state to that country. He found
many people there on the same Grand
and also found many who had gone
there pulling out for the United
States. He says a bad blizzard pre-
vailed there only a few days ago and
he considered it a little bit too late
for successful stock and grain raising.

paper was among the many seekers
after fortune who made the big race,
II fine day in April. During his
travels about and afterwards his camp
ing upon his claim, he encountered
much bad water, which, together with
the severe heat, gave him a very
severe diarrhoea which it seemed al
most impossible TO check, and alongin
June the case became so bad he ex-
pected to die. One day onegof his
neighbors brought him one snail
bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholers
and Diarrhoea Remedy as last none.
A big dose was given him while he was
rolling about or the ground in great
agony, and in a few minutes the dose
was repeated. The good effectof the
medicine vas o noticed and with
in an hour the patient was taking his
first sound sleep for afortnight. That
