IN INTEREST OF ECONOMY.
Interior Department Branch of G.
p O. Abolished.

The branch Of the government printing
Office located in the patent office building
and apportioned to the Interior Depart
ment has been abolished. The printers
and pressmen will be transferred to the
main Office and assigned to similar ,du-.
ties. Although occupying but compare
lively small space in the patent Office,
it is said that more breathing space"
will be given to such of the clerks as
are detailed to the rooms.
A rumor has been current for some
time that all the branch printing offices
were to be abolished. with the exception
of that at the Library Of Congress.
Private Secretary Dow last night put a
quietus on that story. however, by an
nouncing that there was certainly nothing
to it. He said that the secretaries of
the various departments could take the
initiative in the matter, as in the case
of the Treasury branch, but that these
rumors, as usual, false and misleading.
The function of the Interior branch
office has been to handle rush" jobs
for the various bureaus, but the patent
and civil service commission work has
been the heaviest. The work of the
commission is, of course. strictly conf
Dental, and in no case have leaks in
the questions been attributable to the
printers. Freedmens Hospital, the Gov
eminent Hospital for the Insane and
similar institutions under the Interior
Department have also been Served with
all small printing.
One of the most tedious jobs handled by
the branch has been the headings on
each sheet Of drawings accepted by the
patent Office. In the neighborhood Of 800
sets of drawings are handled weekly. run
ming from 1 to 100 sheets to the set
Thus, a new form must be handled
for each set of patent drawings, with
a change of one figure in the serial num-
Der for every impression. Some years
ago this work was tried out at the main
Office, but was finally sent back to the
branch.
While greater expedition is not claimed
for the departments work in the main
Office. yet 1t is stated that. economically
considered, it is good move for the gov
eminent printing office.

Belasco.

Blanche Ring, merry and multitudinous
is the attraction at the Belasco Theater
this week. Miss Ring is not merely a star;
she is a galaxy. She appears now as the
American girl Of the smart picture per
type; again as an Irish lass with lift
of the eye and a Tilt that make her
blarney irresistible; again as an expon-
ent Of polite ragtime. and finally as a sort
Of up-tc-date Rosalind, booted and belted.
but none the less gracefully outlined to
the eye. The manner in which she con-
veys her songs across the footlights is
convincing and emphatic. Yet tt Is not
forced She is not one of whom 1t may
be said in complimentary and conciliatory
tone, she is a Woodworking actress and
deserves success" Hard-working she
may be and doubtless is. but she draws
on enormous store Of native vitality
and personal magnetism and no evidence
of effort detracts for a moment from
delightful flow of good spirits. Neither
does she find herself tempted to descend
to broad suggestion In song or dialogue.
A frank. hearty. yet refined personality.

the audiences prompt cooperation in any
ambition she may cherish to bring out

cessor to those monumental achievements.
There is no doubt about its being much
to the popular taste as sung by Miss Ring.
The piece is by that veteran of musical
farce, Mr.. George V. Hobart, with music
by Silvio Helm. 1t does not hold out hope
that the firm name Hobart & Helm will
displace those effected masters of satire
and song. Gilbert and Sullivan; but under
the competent direction of William Lor-
raine the music goes with vim and spar
kle. The Sousa march had the stalwart
rhythm characteristic of its composer.
The cast is not lavish in it's supply of
comedians of the kind that make a bois-
ferrous appeal for laughs. There is some
first-rate character delineation and the
chorus is composed of genuinely pretty
young women The costumes are richly
beautiful and evidently in close touch

ton to a German comedy character and

Two Craft Awaiting Repairs Sub
merged at Regan's.

The bugeye rugged craft Louise. one Of
the local fleet Of pleasure boats. was
brought to Regan's boatyard Sunday
leaking badly, and before she could be
placed on the railway to overhaul she
sank in about five feet of water in the
dock in which the railway operates. The
vessel will be raised today. and will then
be placed upon the railway to be taken
from the water for general repair work
to fit her for the fall hunting season
on the river.
The power launch Southerner, formerly
one Of the best known and fastest of
the fleet of cruising boats owned at
this city. which has been lying out of
service at Regans for several months
past. has also filled and sank, and is
lying at the boatyard partially sub
merged. 1t is not known what DISPOSE
ton the owners of the boat propose to
make Of her.
The new houseboat belonging to Cant.
William Schaffer of this city has been
completed. and went into service for the
first time on the day of the water
carnival, in the early part of this month.
The new craft is roomy. and will be
used by her owner and his friends as
headquarters when on hunting and fishing
trips to the lower river.

AUTO FLORAL EVENT BEST EVER
PROSPECTS FOR THURSDAY DIS
PLAY VERY ENCOURAGING.
Chamber. of Commerce Committee
Holds Meeting for the Recep-
ton of Reports.

1t looks very much as if the auto floral
parade to be held Thursday afternoon will
be the biggest and best event of its kind
ever seen in this vicinity. If enthusiasm
counts. there is an abundance Of it. as
was shown at a meeting last night Of the
Chamber of Commerce committee in
charge of the parade, when it was an
nounced that everything is in readiness
for the starting signal Thursday.
Not only will the parade be witnessed
by Washingtonians. but there are crowds
of outsiders coming to the city for the
express purpose of seeing the cars as
they make their way to and from Capitol
Hill. George Gall. who has helped the
committee get out its $4,000 circulars
along the railroads, said last night ne
expected people from points within ra-
dius of 200 miles.
The street cars on Pennsylvania avenue
will not stop running between the hours
Of and pm. Thursday. There had
been confidence among the committeeman
that their request to leave clear roao
for the automobiles WOULD be granted, but
the Capital Traction Company does not
see it's way clear to suspend traMc.
Other Changes Announced.
Another slight change in the program
was decided upon at the meeting, by
which the cars of the Munsey reliability
run will lead the procession instead OF
bringing up the rear. 1t was generally ad-
mitted that the road-stained veterans or
this contest will attract great attention,
even If the mud and dust do not add any
thing to the beauty of the parade. Also,
word was received during the meeting thar
the cars of this run would accept only
one of two positions. either at the head
of the column or just behind the electric
machines.
The diagrams, similar to that published
in The Star Sunday. showing the plan or
arrangements for the start Of the parade
on the Ellipse have been sent out to each
entrant. Each driver will wear con-
spicuous number on his sleeve, so that IT
can be seen by the judges. All cars must
be marked by ) O'Clock Thursday after
noon. Cars whose drivers do not care TO
ascend Capitol Hill will be cared for by q
number of marshals at the foot OF the
hill.
