in Accord with Roosevelt's Ideas.

Oyster Bay, n. Y, J3ly THE sig
nificance of Rear Admiral Brownson's
addition to the somewhat meager in
formation which has come from Presi-
dent Roosevelt regarding the contem-
plated two ocean maneuvers of the
Atlantic battleships, is regarded here
as having been overlooked in the com
ment, expert and otherwise, which has
since been INDUCED in ON both con-
tinents. Admiral Brownson came to
oyster Bay Friday to take lunch with
the president, processing entire ignor-
ance of the maneuver plans. When he
left Sycamore Hill to take the train
for Washington, the admiral had one
thought which he wished emphasized
that it was desirable and important
to demonstrate to the world how
quickly the American navy could
transfer it's fighting strength from one
ocean to the other.
This was distinctly an addition to
the presidents previous statement is
sued through Secretary Loeb, wherein
the object of the maneuver was said
to be an exercise movement for the
benefit of the navy, to perfect It's
training in fleet exercise on an ex
tended scale the purpose and effect
of the plan being for the benefit OF
the navy alone.
What came from President Roose
welt through Admiral Brownson is de
cidedly a different and much broader
design President Roosevelt has beer
consistent in advocating a larger navy
as the guarantee of peace between the
United States and all foreign powers
Heretofore, a large navy has beer
reckoned solely from the point of view
of the number of ships, their tonnage
armOr guns and fighting capacity
With this idea the American navy ha
grown steadily, ship by ship.

Vaudeville IS a good lesson to the

make up for lost time. Opportunity
never comes back to him. It's do at the

actors to learn. With Us, IL we fall

my oonfreres have made the error Of
treating this opportunity lightly. The
vaudeville audience is just as keenly
critical as any other in America, and
the actress or actor must remember that
it is the material and not the individual
that counts.

A puzzle was handed Police Justice Roll.
of south Orange. this morning In the
South Orange police court. when Antonio
Ferandi. who lives anywhere, presented
himself for a hearing. having been arrest
ed last night by Policeman Edward Tracy
after he had visited many houses in the
fashionable street section of South Orange
and had started 10 go to bed on the piazza
of one of them.
When taken to the village Jail he was
found TO be able to speak French, Ger

utter one word of English, despite the
fact that he had resided in this country
for seven years.
Though an interpreter he told the court
he' went TO South Orange from west Ho-
boken without any particular object in
view. Ferandi at first said he had many
friends, and then said he had none at all,
and believed he had a right to go
wherever he pleased, Just like the birds.
Justice Roll, getting no satisfaction out
of the man. took d different view of his
actions in visiting houses in South Orange
which Ferandi said he did for the purpose
of getting a drink of water, and gave him
the option Of paying S. fine or sixty days

CUPID'S MISFITS
Two West Orange Husbands in Court
for Neglecting Their Family on Chill
dren's Aid society's Complaint.

Cornelius H. J%acobus. of III Watson
avenue, West Orange, was held in $500 bail
this morning in the West Orange Police
Court by Recorder I'ondit for the action of
the Grand Jury on complaint of Agent
Abbott, of the Children's Aid and Protec-
tive Society of the Oranges, for desertiop
and wilful neglect of his wife and -four
minor children. During the last two years
Jacobus has been before the courts on
several occasions and in December last
the society was instrumental In securing
his release from the Caldwell ~penitentiary
after he had served about four months of
a six months sentence imposed upon him
by the recorder.
Charles Henry Read. a machinist, Of q
Maple street. West Orange, was also be-
fore Recorder Condit on the society's com-
plant charged with not contributing
toward the support of his wife and minor
child since July 5. He pleaded guilty
and as It was his first offense the society
asked the court TO adjourn imposing the
sentence on condition that Read would
consent to sign an agreement to pay the
society IS per week for one year toward
the support of his family from August II.
This was done and the court paroled Read
in the care Of the society's agent for
twelve months.
