A characteristic story of the Czar's love of simpiicity has been going the rounds of St. Petersburg lately. A certain lieuten- | ant who was in a perpetual state of im- m industry created a new demand | ile beer, which is used to clean the pecuniosity was one day seen riding in a tram. The other officers of the regiment were furious at what thcy called an in sult to the unifcrm, and intimated to the | culprit that he had the cption of ecitner | | | sending in his papers or being cashiered, and the unlucky subaltern chose the former alternative. Before he had time to do so, however, the Czar heard of the affair, and without a moment's delay donned his colonel’s uniform of the regi- ment in question and, szuntering out of his palace, hailed a tram and, entering It, sat calmly down till it stopped in front of the barracks. He desired the officers to be called, and when they were assembled addressed them thus: “Gentlemen, I have just ridden from the palace in a tram, and I wish to know if you desire me to send in my papers. I presume I have dis- graced my uniform.” "“Sire’ replied the major, nervously our Majesty could never do that.” ““Then,” replied the Czar, with an amused smile, “as I have not de- graded the uniform Lieutenant D. cannot have done 80, and will thus retain his commission in this regiment, even if he, like me, dares to ride in A tram.” Largest Cotton Mill in the World. Reports from North Carolina say that the largest cotton mill in the world is to be built in the Tar Heel State. The devel- opment of cotton manufacturing in the South has been marvelous, and many big mills have been constructed In the cotton belt since the Civil War, but “the biggest cotton mill in the world"” is to be raised in North Carolina! What will Fall River and Manchester have to say about that? And in other citles in New England out- side of Fall River and in other cities in Old England cutside of Manchester there are big mills. / —_———— The forestry of the Philippines is almost the richest in variety in the world.

FTER MAN-DUCK Fred Daniels, Supposed Lunatic, Proves Good Swimmer. Dives Under Launches and Bobs Up Serenely on Other Side. Fred Daniels, address unknown, created excitement on the water front early yes- terday morning. The man was strolling near the Folsom-street bulkhead when | suddenly he took a header into the water. Captain Peterson happened to be on the 1g9ckout and saw the man tumble in. With 1 speed he ran to one of his launches and made for Daniels. He reached him in time and succeeded in hauling him into the launch. The captain then came about and made for land. \ ~Half-way to the landing place Danlels deliberately jumped overboard and began divesting himself of his clothes in the water. He got his trousers off and swam out into the stream. Peterson once more tcok up the chase and was soon joined by a launch from the transport Thomas, the tugboat Ida W and two or three gasoline launches, which went into the rdce after the man, who with long, easy strokes and aided by the tide was making good head- way. D{mlels was soon overhauled, but as one of his pursuers would.try to grab him he would dive and bob up serenely some yards away. Diving under the launches seemed an easy trick to him, and he would come -to the surface an scuttle off as fast as nature’s propelling powers would permit. At last, after an exhaustive chase, the boats closed in on him and he was hauled, willy-nilly, on to the deck of the Ida W. Daniels was immediately taken to the harbor police station and from there transferred _to - the Central Emergency hospital_and put to bed in the insane Ward. 'The Commissioners of Insanity will examine him to-day. e Boys Break Into Store. Vietor Demartini, aged 9 and residing at 322 Vallejo street, was arrested yesterday by Po- lice Officers V. F. Dowd and W. Scott for breaking into & commission store on Washing- dton street. He was seen to enter the store by ‘one of the employes in company with an older boy named Joseph Taranto, residing at 320 Vallejo street. The employe nabbed the small- er boy and turned him over to the police, but the elder boy escaped. The police are now looking for him. e Fullerton to Sail To-Day.

Secretary Moody is looking up the list of officers whose presence on useless as- signments of shore duty can be spared for the better interests of the navy and it is said that one of the positions which the Secretary has under consideration as worth reducing, if not abolishing alto- gether, s the general inspector of pay- masters, grown from a modest beginning until it has become the choicest kind of a shore job for a paymaster who prefers dry land. It was originally made for a senior member of the navy pay corps who might be sent to investigate matters requiring special inquiry, but at present that gen- eral inspector pays regular quarterly vis- its to each paymaster stationed at Ports- mouth, N. H., Boston, Newport, New London, New York, Philadelphia, Balti- more and Norfolk, with semi-annual trips to Port Royal, N. cola, New Orleans and to the great lakes. He also visits seml-annually Puget Sound and Californta. He receives for all travel- ing, mileage at 8 cents per mile and Is accompanied by a clerk who also receives traveling expenses. It is stated that 25,000 miles of annual travel is an under esti- mate of the general inspector’s mileage, which, with his shore pay and allowance for quarters, makes the position a luera- tive one Pay Director F. C. Crosby, who was. the immediate predecessor of the present gen- eral Inspector, and who was retired for age in April, took one good generous fare- well whack at the mileage, as his final inspection tour was made from Washing- ton to Bremerton, in the State of Wash- ington, to California, Japan, Hongkong, through the Indian Ocean, Suez Canal to the Mediterranean and home Of course in foreign waters he only had actual ex- penses, but elsewhere mileage at 8 cents per mile By the naval regulations the fleet pay- master of each squadron is required to make quarterly inspection of the pay- masters under no fleet paymaster - the commander of each ship is obliged to have a quarterly board of officers appointed for the pur- pose But these inspectors do. not carry mileage Perhars there is no class of disbursing officer in the public service whose ac- counts are subjected to more frequent and rigid scrutiny than a naval paymaster, and he is under penalty bonds besides. He has two auditors to whom he must submit his accounts; one the paymaster general and the other the auditor for the -+ navy belonging to the Trea: ‘Depart- ment, who sends them to the Controller of the Treasury for final review. Month- 1y returns must be promgfly rendered and at the end of each calendar quarter with- in twenty days, the paymaster must close, balance and render all book accounts and vouchers, J)ropefly receipted, officially certified and approved by the commander. Besides the official in charge of the de- ository, where the paymaster must by aw keep on deposit his public funds, sends monthly, without the knowledge of the paymaster, a detailed statement of his cash account to the paymaster gen- eral. So it will be seen that the public interests are very carefully guarded against possible defalcation. 'or these and other reasons it would seem that the office of the general in- spector is one that might co: nder the head of a private snap. The present In- spector, who succeeded Crosby, is Pay- master Mudd, who has not served a da; on shipboard ‘since he. was, last promoced, six years ago. The Navy Register states that he was transferred from the line branch to the pay corps.—Brookiyn Eagle.
