Born in New York June % 1858.
and appointed a cadet at the Mill
tary Academy in 1875 from that State
In 1880 he was made second lieu
tenant in the Engineer Corps and
continued in that arm of the SERVE
until retired by a special act OF Con-
Gress for his work as constructor of
the Panama Canal. He was the first
civil governor Of the Canal Zone and
continued to perform the functions of
that office long after Congress had
consented to his retirement as a re-
ward for his service, until the Canal
was in perfect working order and all
danger of serious slides had been
eliminated.
The representatives Of the navy
yards on the West Coast have pre-
sented to the Secretary of the Navy
an urgent demand for a special allot-
ment from the national defense funds
for the further improvement of ship
construction and repair facilities at
Mare Island and Puget Sound. with
special reference to the latter station.
Mr.. Daniels takes the position, 1t Is
understood. that the authorization for
expenditure OF the naval apprOpria-
tions at those places. and notably at
Bremerton, are sufficient for the pres
ent, claiming that it anticipates all
! the possibilities in the way Of new
work that may be profitably under
taken in that section.
To this it is replied that it would
/ he pertinent and sagaCiOus to make
| additional allotments with a view to
| having on the west coast rs complete
| provision as is possible for the re-
/ habilitation of the fleet damaged in
war and for such additional work in
| the form of new construction as
| would relieve the congestion of the
| east coast navy yards and the pri-
vate plants along the Atlantic sea-
| board.
There are indications of a determi-
nation to bring this situation, with
| its possible advantages to the gov
ernment at this time. to the attention
of Congress if it shall appear that
the Secretary of the Navy persists in
his refusal to modify his decision.
Adult. Gen. Mccain issued the fol-
lowing statement yesterday on the
officers training camps:
Notwithstanding the high standard
set for the second series of camps,
the response has been most satisfac-
tory. The quality of the applicants
| Is particularly high. Many of the
most successful younger men in the
country who have forged ahead
through merit have applied for these
! camps. These are the men the army
wants for officers. There is room
for more of them. To give such men
final opportunity to apply, the time
for receiving applications has been
extended to midnight, Monday, July

Not so long ago the anarchist used
to be satisfied with Job waving a

II so you feel an inward urge
To go out on the way and scourge
Some neighbor for the weaknesses
YAu are inclined to think are his.
Before you go just look around
And see what vices may be found
Within, and ere you start to iay
That another on the broad highway
Just practice on yourself bit,
And maybe good will come OF it.

One on the Judge.

A judge, who used to wear very long waving hair and heavy beard, one day was on his way to court when he was accosted by little street boot black, with an exceedingly dirty face, with the customary 'Shine, sir?" He was very importunate and the judge being impressed with the terrible state of the boys face, said: q don't want a shine, but if you'll go and wash your face, I'll give you sixpence.' "All right, sir" "Well, let me see you do it." The boy went to a neighbor- ing fountain and made his ablutions Returning, he held out his hand for the sixpence. The judge said: "Well you earned the money. Here it is.' But the boy said: "I don't want your money, old fellow. You can take it and have your hair cut,' and forth with scampered off.

Monkey No Longer Eoasted.

The monkey was forever blowing about what man has accomplished. "This descendant of mine," he would say, ''is the most enlightened animal on earth" He told of all that man has done, and told it so often that the other animals were sick of listening. Finally some of them induced him to go to a theater. After each act he would say to the other animals: 'Those people are my descendants and I am very proud of them. None of the balance of you can point with pride to such descendants" At last a man came on the stage alone. He danced on the floor; then he jumped up in the air and danced; he sat down and danced; he got himself in all kinds of shapes; he danced things that no one had ever danced before, and few things that no one would ever dance again. Before the man had finished the monkey got up and left the house, and from that day until this he has never once mentioned his descendants. Claude Callan, in Fort Worth Star Telegram.
