Fifteen men on the dead mans chest,

Drink and the devil had done the
rest,
Yo-ho-ho. and a bottle of rum!
This is what the Secretary of the
Navy likes. A sea tale where the
brine froths up in every line and one
feels the roll of the ship as she heads
full against the wind, with her sails
almost bursting. No bread--and-
| water story, but one of the oid-fash-
toned sort that makes the blood tin
gle and the music of the sailors
hOrnpipe ring in the ears.
To an old salt the Dolphin, the
United States ship used officially by
the President and Secretary of the
Navy, may seem like a parlOr ship
with it's luxurious furnishings, but to
Secretary Daniels it is the real thing,
when sitting on deck reading Robert
Louis ~Stevenson's Treasure Island"
or some equally good sea tale.
At such times it is simply a sailing
vessel to him, and he is far away at
the Admiral Benbow or the Royal
GeOrge Inn-thOSe famous tavernS

stories of the briny deep and keeping
an eye to the eewar for Black Dog,

And what real JOY and forgetful-

sea tales, too, and grin with delight
when the Secretary dramatically

Dreadnought's her name.
Mr.. Daniels does a deal OF heavy
reading. too. especially relative to the
affairs and conduct of his depart

Dear Sir: l see by the columns of
your paper last night that the first
of series of band concerts has been
arranged by the chairman, Mrs. L.
Clifton Howard. and vii be given
oy the Indian Guard Band. 1t also
states that the Indian Guarl Band
IS deserving of commentator in TAX
ing the initiative in providing enter
tainment and that they rake no
charge for their services But we will
state for the benefit Of the public that
St Mary's Hold Name Band have
taken the initiative in this matter in
giving the band concerts, for We our
selves ,as trustees of st Marys
Holy Name Band, offered the serv-
ices of the band to Mrs Howard and
also to the lady in charge of the
ground. W. a:sc interested ourselves
to advise Mrs Howard to see the
managers Of the other two bands and
try to arrange to have three concerts
/ week. Tier; :ore the credit of TAX
ing the initiative is :lu2 the Holy
Name Band, Is they gave til first
concert on the playground on July 6,
out after investigating your article
we find that Mrs. Howard had moth
ing to do whatever with publishing
the piece. She just notified the Ga
zette that the Indian Guard Band
was to give concert on that evening
and furthermore she wants the Holy
Name Band to have the credit of tax
ing the initiative in the matter. Re-
spectfully,

RICHMOND'S CHECK o. X.

In yesterdays issue of the Gazette
there appeared an article in reference
to a transaction by which the Lo-
zano Dry Goods Co. had notified the
police to lock out for man who had
gwen them a check for SO on which
the Citizens National Bar, had re-
fused payment on the ground that
tie man bad no account theTa. The
check was signed by II. H. Rich
mond. 1t now appears that the
check, as given by Mr.. Richmond,
was perfectly good, as he had large
sum of money deposited to his credit
in the bank, but through an unfortu-
nate error or misunderstanding be-
tween the manager of the dry goods
company and clerk at the bank,
payment on the check was not made
when the check was first presented.
Mr. Richmond has recently moved
to Alexandria County from Balti-
more, where he has always enjoyed
the highest reputation.
