In England this year. 1t is unfortunate.
ly true that the great body Of our citl-
zens shoot less and less as time goe.,
on.
To meet this we should encourage
rifle practice among schoolboys and
indeed among all classes, as we'll az
In the military services, by every
means in our power
Tho Navy.
I approve the recommendations O..
the general board for the increase q:
the navy. calling especial attention to
the need Of additional destroyers ami
golfers and, above all. Of the four ba,
tleships. 1t is desirable to complete
as soon as possible squadron of eigh,
battleships Of the best existing type.
The North Dakota, Delaware. Florit!
and Utah will form the first division.
Of this squadron.
most earnestly recommend that th
general board be by law turned int
general staff. Thce is literally nn
excuse whatever for continuing ti,'
present bureau organization of the
navy. The navy should be treated as
purely military organization, and
everything should be subordinated to
the one object Of securing military
efficiency. system Of promotion by
merit. either by selection or by ex-
clusion or by both processes, should be
introduced.
Nothing better for the navy from
every standpoint has ever occurred,
than the cruise Of the battle fec,
around the world. The improvement.
OF the ships in every way has been ex-
traorlinary. and they have gained far
more experience in battle tactics thar
they would have gained IL they had
stayed In the Atlantic waters. do
not believe that there is any other
service in the world in which the
average Of character and efficiency in
the enlisted men is as high as is now
the case in our own. I believe that the
anme statement can be made as to our
officers, taken as whole, but there
must be reservation made in regard
to those In the highest ranks and In
regard to those who have Just entered
the service. because we do not nov
get full benefit from our exceller
naval school at Annapolis.

Jacob Neiderhauser Says He Has
Never Sold Anything But
Inspected Product
LICENSE CASE IS PUSHED
When Bong. Decided He Could Not
Prove Dairyman Had Sold Unin-
speeted Milk He Had Bought, Mayor
Starts Action or License-Neider-
haussr Put on Record./

Not only declaring that he had never
sold anything but inspected milk since
the city ordinance went into effect, but
furthermore that he never would sell
anything but the inspected product
Jacob Neiderhauser, who is doubtless
. the largest milk dealer In the city,
went on record in the mayors court
Monday afternoon in firm stand for
inspected milk.
Neiderhauser was arraigned Monday
afternoon on charge Of violating the
milk inspection ordinance by selling
uninspected milk. c. E. Benge was the
complainant. Neiderhauser admitted
that he had bought uninspected milk
but declared that he had never sold
any. His claim was that the unin-
spected milk was all fed to calves.
When Benge found that he could
not prove that the dairyman sold any
Of the milk, and that he would have
to prove it in order to make case,
he dismissed the action.
Mayor Then Takes Hand.
Mayor Ingledue then took a hand in
the proceedings, as was intimated when
Neiderhauser's case first came to pub
lie notice. At the mayors instance
Chief of Police Nicholson filed an in
formation against Neiderhauser
charging selling milk without a IL
cense Neiderhauser had all Of his cows
inspected by the city several months
ago, but he never paid the inspection
fees, by which he could take out a Ii
cense. These fees, amounting to about
S4S, are still against him on the city's
books. The mayor gave Neiderhauser
until this afternoon to settle for the
fees and take up the license, and this
Neiderhauser promised to do.
Neiderhauser declared himself as sat
isfied with the effort of the city to
demand inspected milk. and believes
that nothing but inspected milk should
be sold. He was one Of the principal
agitators on behalf of the dairymen
taking q stand against the ordinance,
but he now appears to be in hearty
sympathy with the movement. At any
rate he informed the mayor that there
need be no fear but that nothing but
inspected milk would go out of his
dairy. a. :

CITY WINS FOOD FIGHT.
Supreme Court Says Tainted Good
MAY Be DESTROYED.


Chicago, Dec. s.-An important VIC
tory for the city in its fight against
unwholesome food products, especially
those which have been in cold stor-
age, was gained yesterday from the
United States supreme court. That tri-
bunal asserted that the city under its
police power had authority to destroy
such foods.
The opinion came in the affirmation
of decision of the federal court for
the northern district of Illinois, where
in the North American Cold Storage
company was attempting to prevent
the city health department from de-
stroying large amount of cold stor-
age products
The case arose in the latter part Of
the Dunno administration, when the
city health inspectors condemned and
started to destroy a large number of
cold storage chickens in the possession
Of the North American company. The
company applied for an injunction to
prevent the destruction of the property
Then Mayor Busse was elected and
Corporation Counsel BruRdage and his
first assistant Emil &c. Wetten, took up
the litigation.

Pleasant for Playwriehts.
CyNonnan'S T,ifa)

j. NJ. Barrie, the author, tells a good
story against himself. A lady of his
acquaintance had taken a friend to see
one of his plays. and, quite astonished,
he asked her why she did so.
oh was the reply, its such a
quiet street Tor the horses?"
He also tells of a playgoer who re-
ceived no response to his repeated re-
quests to lady in front of him to re-
move her huge hat.
At length, exasperated, he said:
IF you won't take off your hat my
dear madam, will you he so kind as to
fold back your ears?"

John Burroughs Doesn't Think Presi-
dent Will Perish in Jungle.
New York, Dec. S.-That there is lit
tie danger that President Roosevelt will
end his career in the jungle as the VIC
tim of maneating lion or a charging
rhinoceros is the belief Of his old
friend, John Burroughs. poet and nat
uralist. Burroughs was guest at a
gathering of naturalists and big game
hunters In the Campfire club Of Amer
lea Saturday night. He discussed freely
the presidents proposed African hunt.
"Do you believe there is any danger
Of his missing the first shot in tight
place and being killed OF injured by
his prey?" he was asked.
NO." replied Burroughs. have
often thought that under some Of the
difficulties the president has encount-
cred he might break down under the
strain, but I find he has as much nerve
as he ever had" He added he thought
the president had lost the desire to kill
will the advance of years and that he
would hunt as a naturalist.

5000 as compensation for testifying
in his behalf The purpose OF Mrs.
Hayt's proceedings is TO restrain Thaw
from paying DR.. Wilson any money In
case the latter obtains judgment.
Lawyers here express the opinion that
Thaw's going into bankruptcy practi-
cally disposes of the Wilson proceed
ings, but the attorneyS are proceeding
with both the Wilson and Hyatt mat
tiers regardless of the bankruptcy
phase Of the situation. The Hayt
matter deprives Thaw OF a trip TO

ton was resumed Thaw was question:
ed to considerable length by Fred E.

Thaw said that DR.. Wilson visited
him three times in the POughkeepsie
Jail and then testified in the habeas
corpus proceedings He paid him
$50 by check through his attorney
and he was willing to admit that he
owed the doctor $50 more. He deni-
ed. however. that the services perform
ed by DR.. Wilson were worth more
than 5000.
Thaw answered the attorneys calm
was adjourned until Thursday and
Thaw was taken back to Jail. 1t was
learned today that Thaw's mother will
return from Europe in time to attend
the first meeting of her sons credit
