He testified that he was called! iutp the War Office by Gonse in consequence of a report that he bad said Unit the Drey fus family did not beleve that lrey fns was ininocenii. Painleve said that he denin) this to Gonse vehemently, but he distorted my statement mid added it in the secret Dossier.

RIDICULOUS ERROR Next Thursday is Labor Day in This State. The bill ineikimg LalKr Day a legal holiday in North Carol hua was intro duced in the 'last Legislature by Mr. Craig. His idea was to imuke the na tional Labor Day a State holidkiy. He asked Mr. B. It. Lacy what was Labor Day, and although he is opposed to th holiday, he told him the first Monday in September. However, one of the i,'i !;s in the Legislature told Mr. (Vain it vu. the first ThuTsdkiy, alnd he acco'dingly changed his bill. Therefore, while tin first Monday is la'bor day in niau.v States it is not in North Carolina. The eap'iol was dosed to-day because it was Labor Day but they were mistaiken, and if the law is carried out the capitol will be dosed up next Thursday. It is a ridi culous 'but harmless mistake. Her- i North Carolina's unique law in which the error was made: "CHAPTER 40. "Aim Act to Mnke Ijihor Day a L-gal Holiday. "The General Assembly of North Cai" liiifl do enact: "Section 1. That section S784 of tin Code be and the same is hereby nitiunde 1 by inserting the following at the end of line 4 of said section, to-wit: "Amd the first Thursday in Bepteamber." Mr. B. K. Ijacy said this morning: "The Titues-Vis-itor is right. Labor Day and jnost other legal holidays ought to b iiilmlished. They are farce." CIRCUS COMING.

The show will app-nr in Richmond, Norfolk and Raleigh. This is what the San Francisco Exam iner says of this big show, coming to Raleigh on Monday, September 2oth: "We have been reading lat3ly many complimentary comments on the greatly increased size and unquestionable merit of the newly equipped Great Wallace Shows now touring the West, but were agreeably surprised to-day, first by the magnitude of the show as a whole, a it came in sections on its elegantly con structed trains, and again by its itn pendons, clean and novel par.tle. A show never presented a more gorgeous pageant. We visited the grounds later on business errand and agiln met a surprise. The show is abaoln'xHy new throughout, and covers not only the en tire show lots, but all the streets sur rounding them. The tents at the aiter noon performance were packed with vis itors, and the circus program for no vdty, great features, comedy and real refinement excels anything S-tn l'rau cisco baa seen in many years. Hie Examiner 'endorses The Great Wa.lace Shows to the world in general is tffc most meritorious they may possi'j'y eer see, a real fashion plate show if ever there was one. MK.

Charles Dtckeua, THE LEADERSHIP Question as to Who Will Suc ceed Bailey FUND FOR DEWEY'S HOME Census ol the Cubans In October Prize lor Best Life Savinf Ser vice Oiven The Civil Service Denounced. Washington, Sept. 3. tfjpeclal.)-Although the leadership of the Democratic minority in the next House will be -ike-ly to i.ring more kick than honor, n live ly campaign is being waged by a number of candidates, Mr. Bailey of Texas hav ing said that he has had enough. He ap pears to he tor Barakhead, of Alabama. It looks at presemt as though Richard son, of Tennesee, who has jves experi ence in parliamentary precedents, might be selected. Atnoa J. Ooammings, of New York, and Ohales F. Cochran, of Mis souri, who have been mentioned, have both come out for RichardsonL Bailey is not able to defiver to Baukhead the strength that he formerly possessed. Reed was very friendly with Bailey, and many members voted for the latter for leader, with the implied understam '; tliat 'Bailey would return the favor by securing for them good posStions on com mittees from Reed. While Henderson and Bailey served together on the Judi ciary Comimittee and1 ane fairly good friends, Bailey has no sweh pull With Henderson as he had with Reed. The United States Consul alt Gibraltar . has been mstruoted to provide funds for sending home to Cuba the twenty Cu bans who were recently released from the Spanish prison at Ceuta, and have since been in Gibraltar to a destitute condi tion. These Cubans were released tlirougli the good offices of the United States. The relations beSween Spain and the United States government may be said to be approaching cordiality. Treasurer Roberts announces that the fund for a Washington home for Admiral Dewey has now reached $35,000, of which $20,000 has been paid sh Comfflderiug the fact thBIt the govern ment has practically assisted the collee tion of the fund, its size is a disappoint iment to every one connected with the affair. The Treasury has received $3,210,000 from the sale of the New York Custom House property, which reduced the defi ciency for the two months of the present physcal year to $5,593,000. Now, if we should sell Hie Philippines, we would be able to quit taxing Hie pople and de clare a dividend. The taking of the census in Cuba Will begin on October ICth, next, and is ex liected to occupy about wo months. Al though it is assumed that this step ;s preliminary to the estaiblishtoent of an autonomous government in Cuba, the proclaiination ammouiMeing it contains nothing to justify Hie assertion that the administration intends to grant immedi ate independence. One of the reminders of the La Bonr gogue disaster of a year ago is revealed by a circular recitly prepared and seni out By the Sltate Department containing the conditions of a prize for the best de vice for saving life at sea. Anthony Pollok of Washington, D. C, and his wife, were lost when the ship went down. Mr. Pollok was a man of great wealth, and his heirs, to perpetuate his memory, have decided to found a prise to be known as the "Anthony Pollok Memorial Prize." It is a donation of 100,000 francs to be awarded to the best appara tus for the saving of life fa oases of maritime disaster, and is open to univer sal competition. The total aanount of the prize may be awarded to a single indi vidual, or if several inventions are of equal value the jury may award a por tion of Hie price to each. Correspond ence on this snbject may be addressed to the American Security and Trust Company, of Washington, D. O.
