Decrease in Number Of Aliens In the
United States NAVY.

Although the navy Is now recruited up
to its full authorized strength Of 1850
men. there has been a slight decrease In
the number Of aliens, according to the
annual report of Rear Admiral r. r.
Nicholson. chief Of the navigation bureau
At present $3.50 per cent Of the total en-
listed force is composed of American citi-
zens, either native-born or naturalized
There was notable decrease in the
number of assertions last year, due prin-
cipally to the liberal policy pursued in
regard to discharging men for good rea-
son prior to expiration Of enlistment
The total number Of discharges during
the year was 10, $50. and as all Of these
were men who had been especially train

ADJUSTMENTS
Boston Symphony Orchestra.

The brilliant solo work of Kathleen
Parlow, violinist. with the Boston Sym
phony Orchestra at the National Theater
yesterday afternoon, was the marked
feature Of a concert that will probably
rank as one of the most enjoyable ever
given by this famous organization in this
city.
Conductor Max Fielder had provided q
program of rare and varied melodic
beauty. and the orchestra never seemed
in better spirit in its ready response to his
beat.
Opening with the Rimsky-Korsakoff
symphonic suite "Scheherazade." op. IS.
with its varied movements and oriental
strains. the program consisted of Saint
Saens' Concerto in B Minor for Violin
and Orchestra, No. 3d. op. 81. with Miss
Parlow as the soloist, and conducted with
Brahms Academic Festival Overture -
op. so. with its college suggestions, SO
dear to the German heart
Aside from its characteristic excellence
the orchestra presented an additional
claim to the applause with which it was
greeted in the superb work of It's con-
cert master. A. Wick.
Miss Parlow. however. with the magic
of her marvellous tone, technique and
sympathetic execution, was easily the
most prominent feature of the concert,
and her work was rewarded with such
volumes of applause that she was
obliged to bow her acknowledgements
many times.

man. woman and child in the country.
This increase Of cents applies to the
No. grade. which Is the basis for most
package coffees and Is the staple Of the
trade. The increase has not been SO
great on the higher grades Of coffee. but
has made itself felt In every grade from
1 to 10. 1 being the highest and 10 the
lowest.
In defense Of the valorization scheme
it is asserted that there was no other
possible way to save the Brazilian coffee
industry; that the big crop of 1905 would
have wrecked the market; that the plant
ers would have been bankrupted. the
plantations abandoned, and that Brazil
would have been eliminated as coffee
producing country. The effect of this
would have been to make the present
price of coffee, on account of the reduced
production, even higher than 1t Is now
under valoriZation.
Opposed to this is tho declaration of
coffee experts that coffee may be profit

have permanently wrecked the industry.
Grocers and other retailers of coffee in
this country are engaged in forming a
national association to combat the coffee
combine. and there is considerable agita-
ton in the trade for some governmental
action. It is declared that grocers are
bound by fixed prices Of package goods
cereals and so forth-to sell at a neglgi-
BILE profit; that there has long been nc
profit in sugar. and that now coffee is
being sold practically at cost.
The Department of Justice, in response

PROGRESS IN SALES
Of RED CROSS SEALS
Interest Is Widespread and All
the Local Agencies

The interest in the sale Of Red Cross
Christmas seals is widespread The sale
of the seals, which have been placed In
scores Of business places and government
departments throughout Washington. is
progressing rapidly.
To the National Association for the
Study and Prevention Of tuberculosis
which benefits by the sale OF the seals.
many appeals are made for information
in regard to the seals and also in re-
gard to the work which is being done to
prevent the spread of the disease.
Letter to Business Manager.
Robert C. Sanger, the business manager
Of the association. with offices at the
Union Trust building here. has received
the following letter from Mrs. Anna
Shippy Of Davenport, Iowa, showing keen
interest in the seals:
II am writing to you to find out what
Red Cross seals are and what You mean
by Guiding tuberculosis. The doctors all say
have it, and II there is a cure for it
would like to be one Of those to be
cured. I saw this advertisement in to-
days paper Please write and tell me all
about it,"
Forwards Reply.
The following reply was sent to MIS-.
Shippy:
I'VE are inclosing a sheet Of Red Cross
seals that you may see just what they
are. These seals are being sold all over
the country for I cent each in order
that the proceeds may be used for sani-
tariums, visiting nurses and remedies for
people who have tuberculosis. as you say
the doctors have assured you you have.
We believe that II you write to Mr..
Aretas e. kepford. state board Of con-
troll. Des Moines. Iowa. he may tell you
where there is a day camp or sanitar1um
in which you may receive benefit.
People who are interested In the well
fare Of their fellows buy these seals and
use them at Christmas time upon their
letters and gifts in the endeavor to make
the dreadful plague Of tuberculosis less
prevalent than II now is.
I'VE wish that we might know that you
had been to one OF these sanitariums and
were much improved.
