SPECIAL DELIVERIES.

Mrs. Wilson, Miss Margaret Wilson,
Mrs. Burleson and Ralph Boiling occu-
pied a box on the south end OF the ban
quet hall. where they were the cynosure
of all eyes. Their appearance was greet
ed with cheers. They arrived some time
after the President.
President Colin NJ Selph. Of the asso-
citation, and James W. Kelly, postmaster
Of Long Island City, acted as the per-
sonal escorts of the President upon his
arrival at the Raleigh. When the Presi-
dent arrived, dressed in a Palm Beach
suit, the postmasteFs cheered, cheered
and cheered again. Flags were waved
and order was not maintained until fully
ten minutes had elapsed. 1t was indeed
great ovation.
The cartoons shown on a screen created
much laughter. particularly when T r,
was shown. When the picture of the
President was shown, sitting on a fence
above a huge watermelon marked NO
vember," the banquet hall went wild,
and 1t took a somewhat strenuous fifteen
minutes for Toastmaster Selph to restore
order.
At the request Of President Wilson.
George H O'Connor. of local fame, sang
My Cousin Caruso." All in all George
was a great factor in the success of the
banquet as he acted as leader and soloist
and general all around handy man.
George said, Il have one of those Moth
ing to do until tomorrow jobs" He was
ably assisted by Matt Horne, the clever
pianist.
Joe Terrell, Fred Krauss and Pete
Turner who officiated in the Raleigh hat
room made quite a record for them
selves. Nearly 1000 hats were checked
and not a mistake was made
A large corps of walters, under the
supervision of John Evans, maitre de
hotel Of the Raleigh, competently filled
the tasks assigned to them.
Postmaster Jim" Kelly, of Long
Island City decided that the postmasters
would have to wait another year before
he would give them his speciality of
initiating wild birds and animals.
Ruskin McArdle, chairman of the en-
tertainment committee, proved himself
a capable man in the art of seeing to it
that every one enjoyed himself. Mac
was very much in demand all over the
banquet hall
As POSTMASTER President Colin N.
Selph is in a class by himself He is
gifted with the "blaney."
Postmaster c. L. Skoug, of Crookstom
Minnesota, looks so like the President
that he has been obliged to shake hands
over LOCO times with delegates and
friends who have mistaken him for the

Daniels GUARDS
JUTLAND REPORT
Sea Fight Statement by Capt.
Sims Too Strong for
Secretary.

President Wilson's expressed desire to
be scrupulosuly neutral with regard to
the war in Europe is destined to suffer
rude shock, unless somebody side
tracks a report called for and now being
guarded by Secretary of the Navy
Daniels, which is the statement Of Capt
W. s. Sims, commanding the Battleship
Nevada, made on the naval battle on
Jutland at the special solicitation OF
the Secretary of the Navy.
Mr.. Daniels, together with several
Democratic members OF the House Naval
Affairs Committee, desired to have a
frank statement from Capt. Sims with
particular reference to the roles played
by the battle cruisers in this engage
ment. They got a frank statement-very
frank, in fact. Besides commenting on
the apparent work done by the battle
cruisers he has commented at some
length on the naval lessons Of the battle
and given a forcsful account of the
masterful strategy of the British.
Capt. Sims is admittedly great
admirer OF the British navy. Secretary
Josephus Daniels momentsrily forget this
when he asked Capt. Sims for a state
ment which could be published and
given over to the House Naval Affairs
Committee. Capt Sims statement has
reached here, but It has not been made
public. 4
The President has forbidden officers OF
the army or navy to make any comment
which might be construed as unneutral
to any of the belngerents.
