MARINE


Advices from san Francisco state
that the reason for the delay in the
sailing of the Oceanic liner. sonoma for
this port was defect in her stern
post The strut that holds the extreme
after supports of the shafts became
weakened. probably in the rough wealth
er encountered between Sydney and
Auckland on the last trip. Repairs
were rushed at the Risdon Iron Works,
men working as late as 10 o'clock each
night, and the ship was able to sail
for this port about Sunday noon. She
is expected early Saturday morning.

The Inauguration OF Roosevelt.

Brighter prospects never beamed
upon any man than attended Presi-
dent Roosevelts inauguration dav.
Assuming the chief magistracy of the
nation, not by chance of misfortune
and overwhelming tragedy as was the
case in the first instance, but by the
will of the people, he enters upon the
highest office on the face of the globe
without one unpleasant circumstance.
His first inauguration at Buffalo was
simple and in keeping with the spirit
OF the solemn occasion that had made
him president The nation at that
hour was so bowed with universal sor-
row and so shaken with indignation
over a terrible crime. that the coming
of Roosevelt into power was merely
an incident. He was made president
because under the eXigencies of the
hour it was Necessary. not because
either the people or Roosevelt himself
wanted the honor conferred in that
way. Today President Roosevelt en-
tered upon the continuation of his
duties with the sanction of the nation
and in keeping with a program that
was properly Rooseveltian - and the
people wished il so. 1t was essen
italy and properly Roosevelt's day.
Having thus attained in the fullest
sense the highest honor that mortal
man may confer and realized the no.
blest of earthly ambitions he has but
to ask that the unseen power that
fixes the ends and shapes the destir
strength and guidance in the dis
charge of his sacred trust
May the president so conduct him
self in act as well as in theory as TO
prove his worthineSs OF peoples con
fidenCe and esteem. may he be not
only modern bur an old time presi-
dent. and may the sun continue 70
shine in his path.

The wicked Bosom pin.

As every one knows, in the early
days of Methodism a considerable de-
gree of strictness was maintained in
regard to the wearing of jewelry or
costly attire. An eminent divine of
that church gives an amusing incident
\ preacher had just gone to his new
charge and was in the midst of his ser
mon when a woman rose and went out,
slamming the door with unnecessary
violence. OF course he supposed he
had said something which gave offense,
but on making inquiries he learned
that the woman left because 1.-THE min
lister wore bosom pin" The fun Of
il was that he had driven to the serv-
ice over bad roads and one drop of
mud had settled on his immaculate
shirt bosom, deceiving the tender con-
science OF the good sister.

Loading Up Retired List.

The New York Evening Post says
that the senate has several times
showed signs of wishing to rebuke
the president for unnecessarily load
ing up the retired list of the army for
the purpose of getting them out of
active service. Now, however, con-
gress has finally given him a free hand
by agreeing to the bill to place Sena-
tor Hawley of Connecticut on the re-
tired list with the rank of brigadier
general.
A more inexcusable bestOwal of a
rich government favor has not been
seen since Representative BOutelle of
Maine was made a retired captain in
the navy when stricken with an incur
able disease" says the Post.
The retired lists were obviously not
intended to be the refuge of aged or
decrepit politicians. To make matters
worse. the house. in agreeing to retire
Senator Hawley, added an amendment
similarly retiring Gen. Peter J. Oster-
haus, one Of The most gallant of our
German-American civil war generals.
Neither Of these men have been con
nected with the army since 1866. Gen.
Osterhaus having lived in Mannheim,
Germany. for the last 80 years"

The Presidents Salary.

The proposition to increase the sal
airy of the president of the United
States to 100000 a year is supported
by a representative body of public
opinion. and there is no doubt that
before long the necessary action will
be taken. The present congress would
have won the hearty approval of the
people if ii had made this change in
salary so that the benefit of the
increase might be enjoyed by
President Roosevelt. The new con
gress might vote TO increase the
presidents salary the first day of its
sitting, but such action would not do
President Roosevelt any good. His
successor would be the first to reap the
