Some years ago the proprietor OF

The following story: He said that
when he was boy he had occasion
to go into the garnet of his house one

The word Dreadnought has passed into the cur
rent coin of the language In manner that the
name of other warship ever did, the Dunee
Courier says.
The statesman and the man in the street alike
talk glibly of Dreadnoughts in referring to the
latest type of battleship.
When the Terrible the King Edward repre-
scented the last word In naval construction their

OF course, there was then no naval scare-no
general demand for fleet to cope with Ger

HE IS COMING

No need to say who is coming.
There is but one transatlantic pas
senger for whom New York and
the whole country are waiting.
Saturday, June 10, will probably
be the noisiest day the metropolis
has ever seen. And the celebra.
ton will be largely spontaneous
and altogether genuine. Ameri-
cans without distinction of party
are proud of Mr.. Roosevelt, and of
the way he has conducted himself
in Europe.
What will he do?
Nobody knows for sure, but it
will probably not be anything
foolish or inconsiderate. He seems
to be, and sometimes is, impetu.
GUS and impulsive; but in mat
ter like the conduct of the admin
istration, which he has had time
to think about for weeks, what he
says, if he says anything, should
certainly be well-considered.
Our guess is, that he will stand
shoulder to shoulder with the
President, and do ever, thing he
can to uphold him and strengthen
his hands.-Republican Press Bu-
reau.
