Bart will hereafter draw a weekly
cartoon for this newspaper.
His cartoons are famous for their

skill of a master cartoonist and with
it the keen perception, which he gain

porter. His work has been copied for
many years into the leading weekly
and monthly magazines Of Europe

A vigorous protest is being prepared
by the state department at Washing

cruiser Descartes of Germans and
Austrians from the American steam

cording to the recommendations con-
tanned in the annual report of Attor-
ney General Thomas W. Gregory,
which was laid before congress at
Washington.
Senator Hoke Smith, Democrat, de-
