a rather agreeable way of serving
ones country-for a young man of
the required accomplishments-is as a
musician in the navy. The applicant

gree of ability is required. The ambi-
tious young musician has splendid
opportunity for advancement. Before
being assigned to a ship he receives an
eight months course of training at
either the school which is maintained
a Norfolk, Va, or that at San Fran
cisco, Cal. Three concerts are held
each day on shipboard, and the many
hours of PRACTICE develops rapidly the
musicians talents
While there are numerous duties Of
general nature about the ship which
the musicians are sometimes called
upon to perform, there are many hours
which the young men can devote to
pleasure. The band instruments used
in the navy are altos, E fiat: baritones,
B fiat: bass, BIB fiat: bass. f fiat;
clarinets, f fiat: clarinets. B fiat; GYM

on Case

It was reported to the police yester-
day that sometime during Thursday
night the gristmill of Joseph Shaw on
Mt. Vernon avenue had been entered
and a small amount of cash taken, aft
er which the thieves had made good
their escape. City Marshal Tyler and
detail of his officers have the mat
ter under investigation.
The entrance to the mill building
was gained by breaking a light of glass
in a sash which occupied the upper
part of a door and then reaching
through the break and turning a but
ton which fastened the door. That one
of the thieves-if there were more
cut one hand on the broken glass in
the window was indicated by drops of
blood on bags Of -four which lay along
the floor on the way to the office. On
reaching the Office the cash drawer was
pried down with a file so that it could
be opened and the cash found therein.
about $40, was taken.
A feeling which is entertained re-
garding the break is that it was the
work of someone who is familiar with
the mill because of the way in which
entrance was gained, and who also
knew it was the custom of the owner
or the mill to leave a little money in
the cash drawer each night, for the
use Of the man who is first at the mill
IN the mornings, before the owner ar
rives.

of the acts above the average of circus
merit but the performers exhibited a new

indicating that the show had had pros
porous season. The parade, while not
long one, attracted considerable attention
as it passed through the streets during
the forenoon and large crowd was out
to watch it's progress.
The patriotic spirit now so prevalent
in our country was manifested at the aft
ernoon and evening performance when
flags were carried in the general calva-

but by the elephants as well, and the mu-
