All defensive works at the base

Guantanamo. No capital ships will
be sent. Dreadnaughts, battle ships
and heavy cruisers would not be need

Washington, June 10.

Washington, June 10.
President Wilson has made two
speeches since he came to Washing
ton in which he disclosed himself as a
real human being-like other men. In
the last of these, several weeks ago,
he referred to a certain class of men
who became so swelled up when they
obtained political positions that they
were in danger of bursting. He gave
the opinion that it would be a good
thing to stick a needle in some of
these people and let the surplus gas
escape. Washington was very curious
to know just who the President had in
mind, since it is evident that several
prominent officials of the Government
might have been included in the
thought of the President. However,
as campaign time is drawing near, the
people of the country will make no
mistake in availing themselves of the
opportunity to learn whether the Off
Gals for whom they are to vote have
grown and progressed, or whether
they are really like the gas bags of
whom the President complains.
A recent decision of the United
States Supreme Court declares a Con-
gresham to be an officer of the Unit
ed States. Twenty-seven Representa-
tives in the Lower House have pro-
tested, and they have gone to court to
prove that the decision is in error.
These petitioners foresee the over
turning of the legal status of men,
bers, and they declare that the dignity
of the lower House would be very
much hurt if the view that has OBJ
tanned during 119 years, defining Con-
gressmen as one of the three govern
ing bodies of the country, is to become
so twisted as to leave Representative
in the position of being Officers"
They are sure that they ought to be
considered as at least a third of the
physical end of the republic.
A news item tells that Miss Mar
garet Wilson, Justice Frederick L.
Siddons of the District Supreme
Court and Representative Ben john
son, chairman of the House District
Committee, and others, frolicked and
danced with school children at a social
event closing the Grover Cleveland
Community activities, few evenings
ago. "Old Dan Tucker" "the Vir-
ginia Reel" and other vivacious old
dances, were in the improvised pro-
gram. 1t has been found that the old
folk customs of Europe, and the good
amusements of old-time
will arouse more real inter- |
est and put more real "pep" in boy |
or girl than all the new-fangled high |
brow methods that can be collected |
into any social event. Miss Wilson |

News From The National Capital

she didn't care for so burdensOme a
task, for she Immediately took the
train for the Middle West, and labored
there exactly as she is doing today,
for the down-trodden. When her faith
err remarked she came back to the
East, where she has continued her
work. Who is there so narrow and
selfish but will gladfully lift t.eir hats
in appreciation of the splendid Mar
garet Wilson, who is making a name
for good deeds that is far greater than
being a Presidents daughter?
Senator Works of California has a
bill before Congress which provides
for the purchase by the Government
of property on both sides of three
principal avenues in Washington, upon
which shall be erected buildings by
the various States of the Union. The
different States have been putting up
their temporary buildings at fairs and
expositions in different parts of the
country since 1898. Since the same
results that are obtained with these
expOsitiOns would be secured the year
around if there were State buildings
in Washington, the idea is not so
visionary as it might appear at first.
Such buildings would not only beauti
fly the Capital and make it more COM
plete as "the parlor of the nation"
but they would provide State head
quarters for visitors from all parts of
the United States, who daily come to
Washington. Senator Works altru-
istic scheme is 4 beautiful dream of
the future.
President Wilson has let it be known
that he is in favor of the Kern-Mc-
Gillicuddy bill, providing compensa-
ton for employees who are injured
while engaged in the service of the
United States. Private corporations
in large numbers have introduced
sociological plans for the benefit of
their employees, and some Of them
have provided retirement pensions and
fixed profits on cooperative basis.
In the District of Columbia even the
school teachers, who have been fight
ing for pension system for quarter
of century, have made little progress.
Uncle Sam appears to be considerably
behind the times in cOmprehending the
industrial situation? Further evidence
of the correctness of this statement
lies in the fact that the wage system
for Government employees in Wash
ington has not been changed in more
than fifty years.
The Department of State is refus-
ing passports to American citizens
who desire to go to Europe on peace
Newspaper men, unless
identified in positive way with some
reputable publication, are also under
the ban. However, there are no re-
strictions upon the vast host of trav-
elers who are selling ammunition or
on trade relations with the
Europeans.
Newspapers and politicians have left
Europeans to their own bloody con-
lict for time at least. They have
to their agitated discussions
# national politics. 1t, is a healthy
subject, and furnishes sweet relief to
he harrassing questions that surround
he grewsome topic Of war.

ELECTION BETS PAID
 OFF AT THE LYCEUM

If the policemen of the city were busy last night after the election was over they were in no way buster than our old friend "Otticer 666'' who is holding forth at the Lyccum this week and who is keeping crowds roaring at all performances. To begin with "Oficer 666' is about the funniest farce that ever was written for pres cn1ation on the American stage. Add to this that the Alfred Cross players have ail been well cast in this comedy and nothing further need be said on the subject. From the moment the curtain goes up on tho first act until it falls in record time on the last act there is something doing every min ute, and "Officer 666' is always there.
 Many election bets will be paid off tonight by theater parties at the Ly- ceum, as many such bets were paid last night ''Otticer 666'' will be on hand to meet the gathering and, in the language of one of the subOrdin- atcs who does duty on the same ''heat,' "a fair time will be had by al! those who attend"
 Alfred Cross, Eugene Weber and J. Irving White are the three men who carry *off the honors in this unique farce that goes the full gamut of fun in three acts. Miss Julie Hernc, Miss N-1nnifred Wellington and Mrs. Adel- aide Hubbard are the three women in the east. They all have their hands full while the fun lasts.
 As the play this week is in one scene only, the producer Kendall Weston, and the scenic artist Maurice Futile, have had a chance to focus all their attention on one point and make a setting that surpasses anything ever put on at the Lyceum. There are more than fifty separate pictures on the walls in this one scene, and some of them are of extraordinary value. Preparations are now being made for a stupendous production next week of the celebrated old masterpiece The Iron Master.'
