Naval Academy Cadetship

Mr.. Rupert Burstan The young Middle
town lad who recently bore off the honors
from eleven other young men from various
parts Of the state in preliminary competi-
tive examination for a Naval Academy
Cadetship, left for Annapolis on Wednes-
day last, to attend for six weeks a pre-.
psratory school there before taking, with
the two alternates next to him in marks,
the final examination necessary to entitle
him to admission to the Naval Academy.
Although be had "a general average Of
87.S9, and the passing mark for the Acsd.
emy is but So, he wisely resolved to make
assurance doubly sure and take bond Of
fate, all the more, since the final exami-
nation is much harder than the first. But
for some petty geographical slips, we IN
derstand that Mr.. Burstan's average
would have been up in the ninetiesI He
was asked this 'catch" question. "What
and where is Kobe?" THE TRAN cRIPT
man made hasty stab at il, and said q
town in Central Africa which was correct
but thought it might be in China,
though Japan proved to be the other
point. We do not doubt the young mau
will keep his place at the head Of the
race, and finally cross the tape an easy
winnef-we certainly hope so.

NEW TELEGRAPH SERVICE

The Western Union Telegraph Co., in
sugurated Wednesday new form Of tele-
graph service called the Day Letter,
which, it is believed, will Immediately
commend itself to all as affording decided
economic and profitable advantages to the
business community. The Day Letter is
designed to be the day companion to the
Night Letter with which We are already
acquainted.
The rate charged for Day Letter of
fifty words Or less, is one end one-half
times the Night Letter rate for each sddi
tional ten words or less, one-fifth the ini-
tia charge. For example: the PhiIadeI-
pLia-C Chicago Night Letter rate is so cents;
the Day Letter rate is one and one-haf
times that or rs cents, with Is cents for
each additional ten words. The Philadel,
phia-San Francisco Night Letter rate is
81; the Day Letter rate is $l.50 with so
cents for each additional ten words.
The Day Letter and Night Letter give
to the United States the cheapest tele.
graph service in the world and enables the
nusiness man to conduct his corresponds
ence by wire with all the advantages that
result from saving Of time, elimination OF
distance and the immediate attention in
variably accorded to tefPgrams.

BLOOM KNOCKED OUT.
Planted Hard Right to stomach and
PacEey Woke Up.

Racine. Wis. April S.-Packey Nc
Farland had things all his own way
Friday night in his battle with
Maurice Bloom, the Chicago Ghetto
boy, who has been coming to the front
recently, and the battle ended in the
eighth round, when Bloom was knock
ed out after having been against the
ropes, or down in nearly every round.
The first three rounds we're I'M
eventful until the middle of the third,
when. a straight right to the stomach
by Bloom shook Mcfarland into &C.
ton, and he rushed his man to the
ropes with hard rights and lefts to the
face and in the fifth only the gong
saved Bloom from a knockout.
In the sixth Mcfarland had Bloom
on his knees for an instant, but Bloom
was gamely taking punishment and
jumped up, but was pushed to the
ropes again. In the seventh Bloom
took more punishment and again was
piled up on the ropes when the bell
sounded. The end came in the eighth
when a left to the chin sent Bloom
down for the count of four, and when
he staggered to his feet another in the
same place finished the fight.
