Within three weeks of announcement,
nearly twenlve hundred boys have en-

instead of forty or fifty boys, as was
expected, two and three times the num-

and only a beginning has been made.
The Journal placed no limit on
the number of boys who would be re-

to practice their drill exercises at home,

setting up, or physical exercises, that
are calculated to make boy stand and
walk erect.

WHITE TAILOR SUITS.
They Are Pretty and Will Be Much in
Vogue for Winter.

Tailor suits Of white broadcloth and
serge are made with a touch of black.
One long redingote in broadcloth had
black silk collar, with little white
embroidery. White cloth princess
costumes are trimmed with black vel
vet in the shape of reyers, straps,
pockets, cuffs and collar. Sometimes
all of these appear in one gown. An
other white serge street costume was
in Elton shape, and had vest and cuffs
of black silk laid over with white lace
and white cord. 1t was finished with
white silk buttons, with loops of cor
responding cords, and was worn over
white lace blouse. Both white
serges and cloths made for spring
wear are reduced now because soiled,
and as they clean beautifully and
promise to be more worn this winter
than even last, they are a specially
good investment. An all white cloth,
with long redingOte, which had been
marked we'll over 500, was bought
the other day for $50 by woman who
intended it for winter wear with black
lynx furs. Another gray spring cloth,
cut in the same shape, was frightened
with red cloth laid over with black
and white braids in narrow rows, and
will be worn this winter with black
furs. 1t is predicted that the redin-
cote will be as popular as ever because
of the tight lines upon which skirts
are fitted. Most of them show a seam
down the back and a few new ones
are shown with flounce set on Just
below the knees.
A new autumn model was made in
brown faced cloth, with braid of the
same shade all down the front, with
just thread Of gold interviewer. 1t
was cut with seam below the waist.
having hip pockets outlined with braid
and gold, and was finished with a
military collar of gold braid. The
skirt was quite plain and braided to
hide the front seam, fitting beautifully
on the hips and just touching the
ground all around, where 1t was slight.

TloNS FOR CUBAN CAMPAIGN.
wARSH|pS GETTING READY
Navy Yard Officials Rush Supplies
Aboard VesseIs--Secret lnstruc-
tons to Commanders.

Washington-Jacob Sleeper, the
American charge d'affaires at Havana,
advises the state department tina. the
government Of President Palrla has
considerable doubt of its ability to
maintain itself.
President Roosevelt has given rush
orders to the officials at the navy yard
at Norfolk to hurry stores aboard the
cruisers Tacoma and Cleveland so as
to enable the vessels to sail for Cuba
by Saturday.
Consideration has been given the
question of sending the entire Atlantic
feet under command Of Rear Admiral
Evans, to Cuban waters. The stu
alton in Cuba is such that the gov
eminent may be forced to order these
vessels south.
There IS no secrecy on the part Of
the army officers on duty at the war
department that plans for a campaign
have not only been discussed, but have
actually been decided. These steps
have been taken because the admins.
tration does not desire to lose any
time in sending troops to Cuba to
maintain peace and protect life and
property If the situation becomes so
acute as to demand action on the
part of the government
1t is stated in the most emphatic
terms by Acting Secretary Bacon that
there has been no request on the part
Of the Cuban government for interven-
ton by the United States. But official
advice has been received by the de-
partment that the revolutionary forces
are conducting their war upon the
very gates of Havana, and that the
capture of President Palma and the
members of his cabinet Is among the
possibilities of the next few days If
Palma desires to seek an asylum On
an American warship it will be granted
him.
The Denver Is now anchored in Ha-
vana harbor, almost within stones
throw Of Palma's palace. In case the
personal safety of President Palma
should be threatened he could be taken
aboard the vessel within a few mo-
ments' time. Commander Colwell in
charge of the Denver, will, of course,
also afford all possible protection to
American citizens in the city Of Ha-
vana. In an emergency he will be
permitted to land blue jackets for this
purpose without waiting to commune
cate with Washington. A similar
course will be pursued by the Mari
eta at Cienfuegos, and by the Dixie at
Guantanamo.

MAINE ELECTION RESULTS.
Cobb (Rep.) Reelected Governor by
Reduced Majority.

Augusta, Me.-The much-talked Of
Sturgis liquor law raised havoc in the
Maine election, Governor Cobb, repub-
lican, being reelected by from 1000 to
10000, as against nearly $4,000 plu,
rality two years ago.
Nearly all the cities in the state
wont democratic, and One city in Pen.
obscot county for the first time in its
history. Four Of the counties that
went into the democratic camp were
Cumberland, Knox, Androscoggin and
Kennebec, the last for the first time in
its history.
All four of the republican congress
men of Maine are undoubtedly re-
elected, although by reduced MAORI
ties.
Congressman Littlefeld, against
whom warfare was waged by Presi-
dent Gompers of the American FEEDER.
alton OF Labor, will win out by from
1000 to 1900. Two years ago his
plurality was 5,391.
Not for many gears have the demo.
cratic voters been so aroused from
their slumbers. Seven of the thirty.
one senators and sixty of the Isl rem.
resentatives in the legislature will ba
democratic.
