BUSTER BROWN"

There never has been a character In
the funny pages of the big New York
Herald or other newspapers of note,
that so strongly caught the public
fancy as has Richard +. Outcault's
creation of Cluster Brown" for the
New York Herald. True, Buster is a
young imp, but he is very loyeable
one and as for his knowing dog, Tige,
why almost every boy and girl in the
land loves him.
The production is spectacular, re-
quiring the services of ballot, a
chorus, and a number of pretty girls
who wear some of Wanamaker's finest
creations.

WHY R0JESVENSKI FAILED.

Most interesting in many ways is
an article from the pen of an officer
of the japanese navy, who gives an
account of the battle of the Sea of
Japan as he saw it from the flagship
Mikaso From this apparently ac-
curate and certainly most picturesque
account it is clear that the Russian
armada was outmaneuYered, outgen-
eraled at every point and destroyed
or at least put hors du combat by
guniire, as the torpedo attack did not
begin until the battle had been won.
The above conclusion is confirmed
by an article of George Remnants in
the Outlook for July %, in which he
gives the story of the battle based up,
on information which he received
from officers and men of the Russian
tieet. The reasons given by them fol
their defeat he formulates as follows:
81. Insufficient information in re
gard to the whereabouts and dispo
stion of Admiral Togo's ships.
"2. The superior speed of the jap
anese vessels, which enabled them tc
take the positions that were most ad
vantageous, and fight throughout thu
engagement at ranges of their owl
choosing.
"3. The surprising and extraordi
nary accuracy of the Japanese gun
fire at long ranges"

BENEFITS OF UNIFORM SYSTEM,

Since the bureau of inspection of
public Offices started in Ohio, the in
spectors have discovered oyer $780,,
600 in the pockets of public officials
in this state that belongs to the peo.
Pile. And the state has not near all
been covered yet, says the Columbus
Press. Post.
Allowing the same rate of malfeas-
ance in the places not visited as in
those inspected, and the total graft
IN Ohio offices in the last few years
will amount to half a million, Where
the discrepancies have been uncovered
by thesnspectors the money will have
to be paid back.
The law creating the bureau of
inspection I belieye is the best thing
that has been passed TO benefit the
public treasury since | was boy"
said Chief Inspector George Rutledge
last week
The bureau of inspection was or
ganized about three years ago in
July of 1902. Practically no work
was done till in the following Septem-
ber. Then the inspectors began to
get busy and city and county officials
began to squirm. All sorts of loose
ness in bookkeeping and all sorts of
grab games were uncovered,
The first thing the department
tried to do was to establish the uni
form system of accounting in the of
fees of the state. Prior to the pas
sage of this law every township, vii
lage, city or county official kept books
as he pleased. One official would
have half dozen books and another
one. There was no system and nc
man could tell anything about the
records without spending a month OIL
two to get at the bottom of the sys'
TEN of bookkeeping.
There are SO counties, II cities, Ill
villages in Ohio, and when it is con,
sidered that in most of these depart
ments the systems of bookkeeping
had to be revised, the extent of the
task may be imagined. Many of the
officials have not yet installed the
new system, but gradually they are
coming to it. When it is all com
pleted the work of inspection will be
greatly simplifed.
