Retain Key West.

Key West alone of the Gulf naval
stations should be maintained; not as
a first.class station but for the supply
and quick repair of small gunboats and
torpedo craft operating in the Car.
ibbean Sea The secretary predicts that
in time of war the cities of the gulf
coast will be, from their natural secur-
ity, the chief sources of supplies and
material and the probable points from
which our troops will embark either for
the Isthmus of Panama for further
transit, or for service in the Caribbean,
as may be required.
Because the Portsmouth Boston, New
York, Philadelphia and Norfolk yards
have accessible drydocks of which we
have too few, it is found impossible to
give up any of them. Port Royal has
drydock unapproachabe for battle
ships or even cruisers and the Char
lesion dock is likewise useless as the
channel fills in at the rate of from three
to four feet year But in regard to
final recommendation as to other
yards and auxiliary stations on the
Atlantic Coast, save those specifically
named for abandonment, the secretary
says he awaits the recommendation of
the joint board of the Army and Navy.

Criticizes Marc Island.

The Mare Island navy yard is very
severely criticized for its inaccessible
ity both on account of its great dis
lance from San Francisco and the
shallowness of the channel. The muddy
water of the San Pablo Bay is also said
TO work havoc with the condensers Of
the warships. No battleship injured in
action could be taken to Mare Island
even for temporary repairs nor could
the yard be reached by number Of
the heavy battleships or heavy cruisers
even when uninjured. But as $4,000
600 already has been spent on this yard,
the secretary thinks that in order 10

CAN'T DRINK FROM
BOTTLE IN SALOON

Queer diseases require queer
remedies, according to the
ideas of the proprietor of a GER
tain Front avenue saloon, who
has posted in a rear room of his
establishment a conspicuous
sign, which establishes a house
rule as follows:
Drinking from YOUR bottle
not allowed on the premises"
The saloonman says that the
rule was made necessary by
the fact that numbers of his
patrons developed the bad habit
of buying their booze by the
bottle and retiring to the rear
rom to drink it. They got about
twice as much whisky for their
money when buying by the bot
tie, but the boss says it doesn't
put any money in his pocket.

And beheld the dark of the night,
Flee before the approach OF the
morning hour
With its flaming banners bright,
Flung high above the whispering
trees
Whence bird notes burst in melo-

To hail the full day light.
How gay sang the feathered song
Sters
A choir, melodious sweet,
Whose harmonious note of music
grand
Rang out the day to greet,
The melting strain filled soul with a
JOY
That cannot be told in words,
While love thrilled the heart with

In the worthless song Of the birds.
Oh! the glorious note of life's morn
ing
That burst into heaven made song
Filling sad hours with gladness,
Breathing Of naught that is wrong;
Lifts me out Of cares that oppress
me
And thrills with a love. sweetheart,
