INAUGURAL BALL
DATE IS FIXED
WILL BE HELD SATURDAY NIGHT,
MARCH a, IN PENSION Of
FICE BUILDING.
Inaugural Committee Unanimously De-
cides Upon That Night at Meeting
at Observation-Disclosures Harris
Receives Date of Rhodes Scholar
ship Examinations.

Washington, d. c., Dec. 9.-The in
augural committee which has charge
of the arrangements for President
Roosevelt's inauguration March 4 has
held its first meeting Il unanimously
declared to hold the inaugural ball on
Saturday night, March 4. This action
was preceded by a discussion of a sug-
gestion that that function, always a
feature of the inaugural ceremonies,
should be held on the Monday night
following; that Sunday would not ne
cessitate the early closing of the ball
and interception of the promenade con-
cert program. 1t was pointed out,
however. hat thousands of visitors
would leave Immediately after the for
NAL Inauguration and that if the ball
was deferred until Monday evening the
attendance necessarily would be com
paratively small. The inaugural pa
rade, it is said, will be an unusually
large one, both in point of civic as
well as military representation.
An effort will be made by the com
mittee to secure Legislation from con-
gress permitting the use of the pension
Office building for the inaugural ball.

Refused Knife and Fork.

New York, Dec. Still Mrs. Chad
wick remains in Jail, while the effort
to raise the $4,000 bail continues. If
it were a state case or a local matter
the bono would have been forthcoming,
but the government has taken a hand
in the matter, and Mrs. Chadwick was
arrested on a United States offense.
For that Isl everyone is chary
of going on the bond. She spent her
night in IN isolated cell. She slept
fairly well until Z O'Clock this morn
ing. when the noise made by the other
prisoners aroused her.
At 1880 o'clock Mrs. Severt, the mat
ron of the Tombs, called on Mrs. Chad
wick and offered the prison breakfast.
This she declined to eat and was al
lowed to send to a restaurant for her
breakfast. The officials take all man
ner of precautions with the woman. as
they have a fear that she would put
herself out of the way If she had the
chance. She was not permitted to
have a knife and fork with her lamb
chops this morning. 1t was cut up for
her and she was compelled to eat with
a spoon.

PoRTANT CONCESSION FROM
THE ANIMAL BUREAU.
Cattle Designed for Market May Be
Shipped Without Dipping If Pre-
viously Inspected n Found to Be
Free from Mango and Not Been
Exposed to New Infection.

Washington, Dec. AT the request
of Senator Warren the bureau of ami
NAL industry has made an important
concession to stockmen by modifying
the dipping regulations governing ship
ments of cattle.
Heretofore local inspectors have
been ordered to require all cattle to be
dipped before shipment. This order is
now modified SO that cattle designed
formarked may be shipped without dip
ping, if previously inspected and found
to be free from mango. and if they
have not been exposed to infection.
The secretary of the interior today
sent to congress a recommendation
that a law be passed granting author
ity to impose a penalty of 81 per head
on all cattle or stock that may be driv-
en- upon Indian reservations without
proper permission. He also asks for
authority to seize such stock and hold
it until the fine is paid.

PlTH AND POINT.

It is easy to 'make fun" Of people.
We all promise more than We can
perform.
Consider the other side. You may
be unreasonable.
Don't forget that you are not as clev.
er as you think you are.
Somehow the applause given at anna
teur entertainments sounds terribly like
relief.
You know how selfish you are? Well,
you a judge from yourself how sell
fish others are.
When a mar says impressively and
confidentially, '"The facts are" ETC.,
how often does he tell the facts?
When the baby keeps a man awake
at nights, he casually" mentions it to
every m he meets on the way down
town.

EVILS OF "GET THERE"
The Dangers Tint Lurk In Our Nod
ern Huxtlins Methods.

II WI may judge by its effects on
those who obey its command, III slang
motto, Got there" is not an elcvating
or %ennobling one. On the contrary, it is
brutalizins. 1t appeals to the lower
and not the higher instincts in man.
Yet this motto is quoted all owe
land. 1t is d~emoralizing the law, it is
creeping into the pulpit, it speaks from
Jul schools, it looks out of the eyes Of
the ambitious, it undermincs health,
and it frequently destroys al! nobility
Of character.
The old fashioned slow ana sure
methods of attaining a competency are
tabooed. Tho man who spends half Il
lifetime in making a fortune is regard
ed as ''slow." Short cut processes, ut
any cost, are the demand of the hour.
From the time a boy enters school he
is goaded on by unnatural ambitions.
He is not satisfied with steady, pcrma-
nent growth. He must progress by
leaps and bounds. Boys and girls are
encouraged by their parents to get
ahead in their classes, even If they
must burn midnight oil and risk their
health in order to do so.
1t is pitiable to watch a typical Amer
lean going to business in the morning.
He is not content to sit quietly and re-
lax until the train carries him to his
destination in the city. Long before
that he leans forward in his seat and
makes ready to leap off while the train
is moving. With every muscle tense,
an anxious, worried expression in his
face and a nervous twitching Of the
hands, %clutching his cane, umbrella,
parcel OF the back Of the seat in front
Of him, he wastes enough energy and
strength before he reaches his office to
execute the labor of half the day.
The life of the average American is
feverish, unhealthy and unnatural. We
are in too great haste with everything
and consequently lack poise. In the
perpetual rush to get there we arc in
very great danger Of losing Ii equilib-

Girls with the Cab Habit.

One Of the curiosities of New York
city travel ON Sunday afternoons is
the number of young women riding in
hanson cabs. Sometimes there are two
in a cab, but more often they travel
alone, and in almost every case they
are the sort Of young women to whom
riding in vehicles of any kind is a nov-
city. Two Of this type approached a
cabman last Sunday and, after trying
vainly to make a bargain with him,
walked away with their noses high in
the air.
They're just another pair Of would
bes," said the cabman in disgust.
They're the kind that think riding in
a hanson is the real thing, and they
save up all week to blow themselves to
a ride on Sunday. They always try to
beat us down, and sometimes we let
them do it-when business is bad."-

Edible Birds Nests.

Coron, a little island Of the Philip
pines. is one Of the chief sources from
which come edible BIRDS nests. 1t has
sheer walls of rock fronting the sea,
in which are deep holes where a GER
tain sea swallow builds its nest. The
wild aborigines, Tagbanounas, collect
the nests from the cliffs by means of
long vine ropes, selling them to Chi
nese traders, who export them to their
own country, where they are consid-
cred a great delicacy. The nests are
three inches long and bring So (Mexi-
CAM for punches of ten or twelve, &C.
cording to size. The gum Of which
they are largely composed is a secre-
ton from the salivary glands Of the
swallows.
