Washington. Dec. 19.-Sec-etary Bonaparte has found that he has no power to dismiss Mid shipmen Coffin and VanDeveer. charg- ed with hazing and complicity in haz- ing Midshipman Kimbrough. This in- formation was conveyed to him today by Attorney General Moody.
 A few days ago Secretary Bonaparte submitted to the attorney general the abstract question as to whether q ca det must be tried by court martial as a condition precedent to his dismissal from the academy. He did not name the two midshipmen above referred to, but he did state that a case had re- gently arisen at the academy, wherein two midshipmen had hazed another. Today the attorney general told the secretary that his conclusion was ad- verse to the asserted right of the sec retary to dismiss a midshipman and he promised to supply an opinion Tn full legal form within a short time.

DRIVEN TO FORGERY.
Man Arrested Says he Was Harrassed
 by "Loan Sharks"

Chicago, Dec. 19.-William J. Smith for twelve years confidential book keeper for the Robert Stevenson Drug company, was arrested yesterday for forgery. Although he had taken almost $3000 from the funds of the company in less than a year, little or none ot it was spent on himself, as was evil denced by his appearance when ar rested. His clothing was old and worn and his overcoat was not warm enough to protect him from the weather.
 "The money all went to the loan sharks" he said. "They kept threat ening to garnishee my wages, and l knew if that happened, I would lose my job and be able to do nothing for the children"
 Smith lived with his wife and two children in a cottage.
 My first false step was taken about three years ago, when a friend of mine invented a candy slot machine" Smith said. "I borrowed $200 from the money lenders and signed a note for $350. which he borrowed to put the ma chine on the market. Well it fell through. I lost my $200, my friend disappeared and I was at the mercy of the money lenders"

A young man in northwest Baltimore has a winning way with children. When neighbors bring their off spring to his house he works them into glee mercy by taking few ssdeiong glances at them. He says that he has learned that small children understand the lan- guage of the eyes better than words. By merely winking he is able to make one of the youngsters want to leave it's mothers side and come to him. A tiny twitch of his mouth sets half dozen or more of them in roar.
 He is a single man, and as all sing.e men should, he has young lady to whom he pays attention. One evening last week he was in a Preston street car with her on the way to the tneater. A woman entered with a baby in her arms.
 The young man had a mischievous impulse to try wink on the child. The mother was looking in the other direc- tion and most everyone il the car had his eyes fixed in that absent non com- initial stare which seems to be the eX- pression suitable for riding in the cars with the longitudinal seats.
 | Nobody was looking at the young. The ] child was glancing from one passengeI to another. None of the faces was ami mated enough to attract her attention until she happened to look at the neat 1 ly dressed young man.
 Without breaking up the sober inn pression of his face the young man
