credit a total sea service of twenty-five
years. Service on the Pacific. North Attain

tivities and experience.
With Dewey at Manila.
He was chief engineer of the L.. S. S. Bos-
ton at the battle of Manila bay, and was
subsequently in charge OF the engineering
department at the Cavite naval station, p. I.
For meritorious conduct during the battle

In 1878 he was attached to the Wyoming.
which ship carried national exhibits to the
Paris exposition of that year. and was sub
sequently on duty on the European station.
At Garfield's Bedside.
Later he was one of three officers detailed
at the Executive Mansion during the fatal
illness of President Garfield for the purpose
of devising means to cool and regulate the
temperature in the sick chamber after the
most approved scientific manner This was
effectually done, but the distinguished pa
tent was beyond the pale of human re-
sources.
From the time of his early ambition to
follow the fortunes of the sea in his chosen

record belongs to the naval history of our
country.

Ideas of Beauty Change.

At one time large and decided hips were
deemed a most desirable adjunct to fe-
male beauty. Now to be slim and scarcely
realize you have hips at all is much nearer
the mark. slimness below the waist being
a special desideratum The bust and the
waist have once more the proud position in
female loneliness of form. Low shoulders
have yielded to high ones, and the choice
lies between a low neckband for the long,
slender neck or for the short throated no
band at ALL a mode adopted by the artistic
world often with weird, unkempt results.

CHANGES IN THE FORCE
MAI. sYLvEsTER's NEED OF A
CAPABLE ASSISTANT.
Capt. Pearson and Lieut.. Arniss Said to
Be Slated for Retire.
ment.

Members of the police department were
somewhat disappointed yesterday when
they learned that Major Sylvester had an
nounced no changes in addition to those
heretofore printed in The Star. 7Rumor had
it that several important changes were to
be made, and the members of the depart
ment failed to understand why they were
not announced yesterday. Nobody knows
better than the superintendent of the force
why they were not made. and he will sat-
isfy the curiosity of the men under him
in the due course of time. 1t can be au
thoritatively stated that Major Sylvester
has a number of changes in prospect, and
some Of them. 1t Is stated. will probably
affect one or more of the captains and some
of the lieutenants. 1t Is more fully realized
by Major Sylvester now than heretofore
that he will have to do something in order
TO keep his department up to the high
standard 1t has maintained. This. he real
ICES, will have to be accomplished by press
ing the younger men to the front.
Police work In this city Is not what 1t
was years ago. and the increased amount
of labor that has been thrown upon the
superintendent means that he does not
have the proper amount of time to attend
to matters outside of his Office. There are
many matters outside of the routine Office
work that are of really more Importance
than the routine, and some of this work
the superintendent realizes. easily he
taken off his hands by an able and active
assistant. Not only experience is necessary
TO fit man for this work. but he must
have knowledge of modern rolice policies
and be up with the times. Such timber is
not so plentiful in the department just now,
especially among the older men, and the
superintendent finds it necessary to look to
the younger element to get the necessary
material.
1t Is more than likely that some of the
younger sergeants will be selected. as the
majors assistants and that some of them
will receive substantial promotions during
the next few weeks. In seeking to improve
the service Maj Sylvester finds that he Is
handicapped in being unable to advance
men from the lower grade because he has
not the money needed for their salaries. He
will continue his efforts this year to have
Congress make better provision for those of
his command. and then he may have better
success in getting the right kind of men for
the positions.

Changes Expected.

1t was rumored about police headquarters
that Capt Cross. who has had charge of the
detective office at night, is to be transferred
to other work probably to succeed Capt.
Pearson. who is likely to be retired. Lieut..
.Amss, who has command of the first pre-
cinct, 1t is stated, is also to be retired but
just when it is not yet known. Because of
the lieutenants long and successful career
his friends have made the suggestion that
he be promoted to captaincy and given
the benefit of the extra amount of pension.
During the time he has held the position of
lieutenant he has held one of the most inn
portant positions in the department that of
commander of the first precinct. The va
rious interests in the first precinct require
man of exceptional ability, and Lieut.. Amiss
seems to have filled the bill. Before he be-
came lieutenant he figured in many impor
tant cases and arrested a number of des-
perate prisoners. He has been through the
mill" as the police express 1t. and 1t is their
opinion that his services should be recog-
nized in a manner to give him substantial
pension
In event of Capt. Pearson's retirement, it
is argued Lieut.. Aniss could be given the
position temporarily and then pensioned as
a captain Lieut.. Amiss, 1t is stated, is
probably not the only lieutenant who is to
be retired.
The only thing done yesterday by Maj.
Sylvester with reference to changes was to
direct that Lieut.. Schneider report for duty
as inspector, instead of taking charge of
the Georgetown precinct. This move caused
Georgetown residents some uneasinesS, as
they thought IL meant that the new lieu
tenant would not be assigned to that pre-
cinct. 1t was stated that he Is to act In the
capacity of inspector until further orders,
and this. 1t is thought, only means that
there will be delay in his taking charge of
the Georgetown precinct.

Evening Star Grange.

GLADEsvmLE, w. Va, Feb. 20, 1905.
The Evening Star Grange of this place,
wishes to say to the readers of the Argus
that it IS still alive and kicking. This
Grange was organized little over two years
ago and few critics around here said,
'fhree months and they will all he in the
hole. But we now have fifty members in
good standing and we are "slill gathering in
the sheavss." We are having boom just
now. We have been so busy that we had
to have special meeting last Saturday to
install. our new officers.
II seems strange to hear farmers sitting
around the blacksmith shops aud stores and
crying how they are imposed upon, when
there is a remedy for it. We have Just as
good a right to organize as other class and
project ourselves. So brother "Hayseeds"
come out Of the hole aud don't be afraid Of
seeing your shadow. Fall into line and 90

good material around Reedswle for a good
