miral Davis Report on the
Kingston Incident.
PRESIDENT WELL PLEASED
He Says the Best Traditions of the
Navy Were Upheld and Humanity
Rendered Distinguished
Service.

Washington, Feb, I'm unequivo-
cal terms President Roosevelt Fri
day approved Admiral Davis entire
action in connection with his visit
to Kingston, Jamaica, and requested
the secretary of the navy to express
to Admiral Davis his heartiest COM
incubation of all, that he did. The
long expected report of Admiral
Davis of the circumstances leading
up to the withdrawal of the fleet
from Kingston reached the Navy de-
partment and was at once laid before
the President. Inasmuch as the
president already has announced
that the diplomatic phase is a closed
incident the report itself will not be
made public However, Secretary
Metcalf gave out the letter of Ad
miral Evans, commanderinchief of
the Atlantic, warmly commencing
Admiral Davis for his conduct Of a
situation, which was, to say the
least, somewhat embarrassing"
The correspondence is supplement-
ed by strong letter of commenda-
tion of Admiral Davis by the presi-
dent and by Secretary Metcalf
The president wrote to Secretary
Metcalf as follows:

His Practical Idea.

A benevolent old man who lived or
his farm in Iowa never refused shell
ter to any who might ask it Of him.
His many friends demonstrated with
him about this characteristic, know
ing that many INSCRIPTIONS hoboes
would avail themselves of the oppor-
tunity. and that there was great dan
ger of the old man being robbed. To
these remonstrances the old man re-
piled hat he believed in practical
Christianity"
But" said one of his friends, this
seems very impractical. Suppose one
of these men took it into his head to
rob you one night"
My dear young friend" was the re-
ply, Il bid all enter in the name of
God, but l prove my belief in practi-
cal Christianity by locking up their
pants during the night"

Big Task for Engineers.

Engineers have never doubted the
possibility of transmitting power from
the Victoria falls Of the Zambesi river
to the great gold fields of the Trans
vaal, $50 miles distant but they have
questioned the economic soundness of
such an undertaking, on a commercial
scale. Nevertheless, contracts have
been let which show that the work
will be undertaken. 1t is the most
extraordinary electric power scheme
ever attempted.

is, however, in general appearance
only that they compare with Allcock's,
for they are not only lacking in the
best elements which have made ALL
cocks so efficient, but are often harm
full in their effects. Remember that
Allcock's are the original and only
genuine porous plasters-the best ex-
ternal remedy known-and when pur-
chasing plasters the only safe way is
to always insist upon having Allcock's.

Women are stepping at lively gait

of a satchel-bOttOmed paper bag. The
glove fasteners which have almost super
seeded the old-fashioned buttons and but
