sells Not. Uncomfortable. :.
Some highly interesting facts, says
the Army and Navy Journal, as to the
effect of modern gun fire on the en-
gines and boilers of armored war
ships have been brought out by an
examination of several Of the Russian
vessels disabled during operations in
the far east. There has been wide
spread belief in professional circles
that the men stationed in what Kip
ling picturessuely describes as "the
little hell below" would have an eE-
ceedingly uncomfortable time of it
during sea fight under modern condi-
tions, but experience has shown that
the engine room and the boiler room
of the battleship and cruiser of to-day
are somewhat the most comfortable
parts of such vessels The captain of
the Russian cruiser Variag states that
after the terrific battering his ship
received at Chemulpo her machinery
below worked as smoothly as if she
had only been engaged in target prac-
tice. The battleship, Czarevitch, ham,

SPANISH WAR VETERANS
MISUNDERSTAND THE ORDER
Adjutant General Lauck Explains His
Recent Announcement Regarding
Those Entitled to Pay.

SACRAMENTO. March 2S.-Adju-
tant General ]. B. Lauck states that
there seems to be a misunderstanding
relative TO pay due volunteers who en-
listed in State organizations during
the Spanish-American war. General
Lauck says It seems to be the impress
sion that all those who served in the
war have claims against the United
States Government and are to send
them to the State military authorities
to be taken up. This Is a mistaken
idea, he says, as only claims for pay
from date of enrolment in State or
ganization to date of muster-in to the
United States volunteers. or to date of
rejection, will be considered There
have been about $500 of these claims
paid, but according to General
Lauel's statement there are fully that
many more who are entitled to this
pay.

DELANEY GETS
TOO TALKATIVE
Fugitive Burglar Wanted in
San Francisco Boasts OF
His Crime in Tacoma Jail

TACOMA, Wash, March 23.-If John
Delaney had kept his mouth closed San
Francisco police officers would not now
be en- route to Tacoma to take him
back there to stand trial for a daring
burglary committed there several
months ago. Delaney was arrested
here February 2S for snatching suit
case from Mrs. Mueller of Everett as
she was taking a Portland train and
was sentenced to thirty days in jail.
The officers made no attempt to secure
his previous record and ii remained for
him to seal his own fate by telling his
fellow prisoners how bold and bad he
had been. During comparison of their
misdoings, Delaney told the other pris-
oners that he had committed daring
burglary in San Francisco and later
had forfeited $4,000 bail in order to make
a pleasure trip to Puget Sound. One Of
these prisoners on being released told
detective of Delaney's boast. Chief
Maloney wrote to San Francisco and
to-day received confirmation of Della
ney's story in a letter from Captain
Spillane, in which the latter says:
Whatever you do, don't let him get
away" Chief Maloney received a tele-
gram this afternoon announcing that a
detective had started from San Fran
cisco with a bench warrant to secure
the prisoner.

In connection --4th the statement of the

fiscal year 1905 exceeded the total deposits
on said account for the fiscal year 1904 in
the sum OF St3S, 797 10. The total deposits
on account of the water fund during the
fiscal year 1905 We're S5,250.5 IS less than the
like deposits for the fiscal year 1904 The
balance due by the collector of taxes to the
District OF Columbia on June 80. 1905 on
account OF unsolicited taxes was $751;
1924. this balance being $50 eli. So less
than the balance due on June 30, 1904

PAID THE ENTIRE FORCE.
MI. Evans Disburses Interior Depart
ment Salaries.

Mr.. George w. Evans. the disbursing Of
ficer of the Department of the Interior. paid
the entire force of employees of that de-
partment numbering 5000, their semi
monthly salaries in less than an hour after
10 o'clock this morning.
Mr. Evans today remarked In conversa-
ton that he could see no good reason why
the employees of the Interior Department
could not be paid regularly hereafter on the
18th and end OF each month. and that II the
officers In charge OF the several bureaus
will certify at the close OF Office hours on
each of those dates that the services have
been fully performed. he will arrange to
pay all employees at the end of the day, af-
ter Office hours, provided his check for
funds will be continued to be honored as
now at the treasury two days prior to the
payment In order that he may have time
to count his money and place II in the pay
envelopes.
Mr.. Evans further indicates his position
in this matter by saying that the employees
of the department having arranged their
business affairs in such manner that their
obligations fall due on the 18th and end OF
the month, he therefore regards 1t his duty
to do everything within his power to ac-
commodate the employees In that respect
He is willing, he states. to keep his office
open an extra hour each pay day, after the
regular Office hours, in order to help the
employees of the department..
