Ever since the Spanish .war there has been a dearth of young officers in the navy, owing to the many new warships that have been commissioned. During the past two years it has been found nec essary to graduate the classes from the naval academy ahead of the usual time. It is hoped, however, that this will be unnecessary in the future as it is also undesirable. Today three hundred principals and alternates appear before the examining boards of the civil service commission for qnidshipman entrances at the acad ( emy to fill the vacancies created by the ilast; annual appropriation bill allowing 'senators the privilege of appointment. iThis is the largest class examined in the history of the school, and if the usual percentage of candidates pass this will give, Annapolis more midship men under instruction than ever before. Temporary quarters are mow being erected at the academy" for the accom modation of the increased number of cadets.' ' '.:', BlomBerg's Selectos 5c cigar has been smoked by nearly two million smokers.

The pension bureau has recently been deluded with applications for pensions from ex-Confederates. SENATOR PRITGHARO GOES TO BAKERSVILLE Marshall, N. C Aug. 11. Senator Pritchafd left yesterday for Bakersvdlle where he will spend a week with the family of Judge Bawmani his brother, George K. Pritchard, and other rela tives. This move on the part of the Senator will probably have the effect of upsetting to some extent the plans of Hon. Locke Craig. . It was under stood to 'be Mr. Craig's intention to at tend Marshall court this week, and just in a casual way of course, drift down to Senator Pritchard's office and ar range the details of that proposed joint canvass. But no matter how many sen atorial booms may' suffer, it is unlikely that Senator Pritchard will make any speeches during the current month: He will remain in Bakersville a week, and will then return to Marshall and put in several days on his correspond ence which has necessarily been neg lected for the past fortnight.- v- A CARDINAL FEATURE of our business, and one which most interests am intending pur chaser of a piece of Jewelry, Silverware or Cut Glass is the High Quality of the Ware Combined with the Very Moderate Prices Every piece full of merit and in every sale a satisfied customer.
