Evans, sailed for its trip of 14,500 miles. It was the largest na- val demonstration ever made by any govecoment. The fleet comprises 16 battleships, and six torpedo boats. Parading in review before the pres- ident of the United States and salut- ing as they went, the stately white vessels drew anchors from the reno- dezvous ground of Hampton Roads and steamed out of the famous old Virginia capes and were lost to view on the southeastern horizon, filmy , tell-tale columns of black coal smoke being the last visible vestige of the departing fleet. At ten knots speed they went, turning their backs on the coast which so long has been their home and headed for the eas t- ern end of the West Indies. ee “23” FOR J.

DEFECTIVE PAGE Congress meets—Asks Delegation to Draw His Seat and he Gets No. 23 ‘The members of congress from this state who weré present at the openo- ing session of the sixtieth congress, attending to their duties and the people’s interests, have perpetrated a cruel joke on Congressman Bede of this district. As was stated in our jast issue, Mr. Bede was not present, as he ought to have been, when the house met. He was up through Michigan getting an education, and he sent word from Saginaw that he gould not be at the national capitol for a few days and asked the Minne- sota delegation to “draw his seat.’’ The delegation, according to advices from Washington, proceeded to draw, but instead of getting him a good place. the seat they drew for Adam was No. 28. The expression *23" as everybody knows, means to skidoo or get out. One authority states thatit originated from the fact that in numbering the rooms of a large hotel the number 23 was unin- tentionally omitted, and afterward when an undesirable guest demanded aroom, tne clerk would direct the porter te show him to room 23, which ment to kick him out. We can hard- ly bring ourselves to believe that the delegation wauts Adam to he kicked out. They would much prefer it to be done decently and in order, but there is no doubt that the drawing of 23 by the delegation was a delicate hint to Adam that inasmuch as he spends much of his time away from the capitol, it wouldn’t imatter much, as far as the interests of this state are concerned, whether he ski. dooed all the time or not. The dele- gation exhibited a fine sense of hu- mor in making the draw, but Adaw doubtless regards it asa cruel joke, for ‘*23—Skidoo” is likely to bob up and cause him trouble in the cam- paigo approaching.— Atoka Repub- lican.
