pose that the merry round of hops and parades
and ceremonies had been designed especially for
the edification of these wellwishers.
AS matter of fact however the succession OF
drills, exercises sham battles. displays of seaman
ship and other practical demonstrations that
crowd this strenuous week are for the benefit OF
the official board of visitors-less than dozen
men who in their plain civilian attire are some
what overshadowed by the officers that escort
them-brave in raiment of blue broadcloth or
white duck, literally bespattered with gold in
sigma. The board of visitors is appointed each
year by the president of the United States for
the specific purpose of conducting thorough in
spection OF the naval academy and investigation OF
its methods of training and making recommends
tions to needed changes in the curriculum, etc.
Consequently, the student body at the great naval
school is put through all its PAGES In order to af-
ford the investigators object lessons at first hand
as to the methods and equipment Of the academy
and the results attained in the training Of young
men as officers of Unce's Sans sea service.

a Quick Cat,

Some years ago the proprietor or n
hotel in southern New Hampshire told
the following story: He said that
when he was boy he had occasion
to go into the garret of his house one
morning and that the family cat fol-
lowed him up the stairs. One of the
windows was open. and when they en-
tered the garret a frightened mouse
jumped out of the window, and the
cat, jumping after 1t. caught 1t in mid
afr and, whirling round. jumped back
again into the same window.

there frequently.

elaborate tomb In the grounds near by.
In 1901 Queen Victoria herself was
buried In the mausoleum beside her

point the crowning week of the
year at the naval academy is not
so different from the correspond

Is the Of the year set apart for the annual
inspection by the official board of visitors and In
deed the days of strenuous activity is often
referred to as Visitors week" rather than as

In the Interpretation Of the friends and relatives

and amusement, and this personal application of

the town full to overiowing with proud parents,
sisters, relatives and sweethearts of the midship
men-the fair sex predominating by tremendous
majority. Such is the influx that the limited hotel
and boarding house accommodations fully en-
gagged months in advance, and many visitors are
obliged to travel by trolley to Washington or Bal

Kansas City Stock Yards, July 81
Meagre cattle supplies last week gave
the market chance to recuperate
from the severe break Of the previous
week, and by the end of the week, it
was once more ON firm ground The
advance for the week was 25 to 40
|cents on quarantine cattle, but the
close was without enthusiasm, and
buyers kept a mean disposition, and
did not relish having to pay the ad-
vance. A good run was expected to-
|day, although advices had been sent
|out to beware of an over supply today,
and the result was light supply, 1870
car loads guarantees here. and
total run of 10000 cattle in both di
visions. Naturally higher prices
might have been expected as light
supplies We're received elsewhere. but
buyers figure that a good many cattle
|are held back for later this week and
they filed only urgent orders today.
and the market was only steady to 10
higher. Owners have had waiting
orders for ten days now and it looks
like buyers were right in their fore
cast that somebody viii have to break
loose pretty soon. Killers complain
of lack Of demand for meat, especially
low priced cuts. which class of meat
was reduced a little in its wholesale
price last week, to stimulate a more
free movement. Cattle from Kansas
pastures will come in liberal numbers
from now on, and rangers from the
northwest are just starting in at the
northern markets, and packers are
making a great effort to prevent prices
on the big bulk of the cattle from 60
ing any higher. Some cake fed win

AN OKLAHOMA STAND-PATTE
Congressman Bird Mcclure of the
First Oklahoma district is another of
the western stand-patters who tried to
save the Cannon organization in the

of his constituents. Mr.. Mcclure be-
longs to that school of western states
men who believe that the obligations
of a congressman to the Cannon ma
chine outweigh his obligations to keep
faith with his constituents Therefore,
Mr.. Mcclure made the same kind of a
congressman for Oklahoma that An
thony, Scott, Campbell, Miller, Calder
head aud Reeder made for Kansas.
And he is now having the same trouble
with his constituents at home that
the Kansas Rhode Islanders are hav-
ling.
Mcclure is opposed for the nomina-
Ition by Judge NJ. c. CARRIER, whose
platform pledges him to uphold the
Chicago platform, the Roosevelt poll
cies, laws for the regulation and con-

Iations, conservation and the election

have opposed all that Judge CARRIER
stands for. On the other hand, Mr..

If the Johnson-Jeffries moving pic
lures are to be prohibited on, account
of the victory of the black man over
the white man alone the reason is in
sufficient. It was a great fight, or
would have been had there been two
lighters Of Johnson's sort. and it wont
hurt the public to see it In moving
pictures. To assert that race pride is
in any way involved is mere bosh.
Those who are thus stirred to deeds
