Decrease in Revenue and Greater Expenses Reason for Change. —— CALL BUREAU, 140 G STREET N. W., | WASHINGTON, Oct. L—Marked falling off in the surplus is shown by the Treas- ury statement for four months of the | present fiscal year, which was made pub- | lic to-day. The surplus announced at the {end of October, 1502, was $13,500,000, to | which should be added $5,000,000 antiei- | pated interest, making a total of $18,500,- 000. The surplus announced to-day was $585,000. Decrease in revenues and increase in ex- penditures are the explanations offered by the Treasury Department for the change. This reduction will be used as an argu- tariff tinkering and will be urged as a reason for cutting the aprpopriations as | much as possible during the coming ses- sion. penses and revenues have run a neck and neck race during the four months of the present fiscal year and the Govern- | ment officials are uneasy concerning the poor showing made. The decrease in the revenues has been wholly in the customs. Increase in ®xpenditures has occurred in | many of the departments. The appropria- tion of $5.000,000 in ald of the St. Louls exposition is responsible for part of the increase. In the present year there has been no anticipation of interest, still the surplus ie almost exhausted. September’s falling off in customs came largely in salt and sugar. It is belleved that these schedules for October will also show a marked de- crease. | @i O principles. He started life as an office | boy for his brother, a Boston doctor, and he is now making the success of his life in “The Office Boy.” As a boy he was known as “Daggy” Danlels. It was the fashion In those days to wear skin-tight trousers, double breasted vests and short | | Jackets with a tremendous emount of| { shoulder padding. Daniels was an ex- tremist in respect to sartorial adornment and “went the limit” of the prevailing style. It was alleged by his confreres that his trousers were so tight that he had to grease his legs to get them on. As the architectural plan was the same | as it is to-day, his appearance was some- | what grotesque, and in the vicinity of hi home he was known as “‘the stuffed boy.

T Printers are a cause of excessive annoy- ance just now to Miss Jessie Millward, because they insist upon rechristening the name of the new play in which she is now starring. This comedy was originaily | called “A Clean Slate” by its author, R. | C. Carton, but in the course of Miss Mill- | ward’s tour through several Canadian cities, the play has been renamed by the | printers several times. In Ottawa, when | Miss Millward's business manager was | | handed the proofs of the programme-in | | order to correct any possible errors, he! found that Miss Millward was advertised | | to appear in “A Clean Shave.” This was i'p"d“y corrected, but in the same town | one of the newspapers printed the adver- | | tisement to read “A Clean Slave.” In ’Klngumn, the printers made the adver- | tisements announce that Miss Jessie Mill- | ward would appear there In “A Clean | Skate.” Inasmuch as Miss Millward | | never touches anything stronger than claret, this title was especially inconsid- | erate. Now, although the printers are | given their coples of the ads and the pro- grammes in printed form, with Lhe title clearly designated as “A Clean Slate,” | Miss Millward finvariably picks up the | newspapers with fear and trepidation anxious less she find herself billed to ap- pear in some absurdly named play not | at all suggestive of the dainty and refined society comedy that “A Clean Slate” really is. gL Henry Miller and Margaret Anglin have added a revival of D’Arcy of the Guards™ to their already extensive repertory that fthey are presenting in the West, ————————— The Fiend—Yes, sir; I have run over nearly ten people with that automoblile.

Callahan, a grocer at $17 Montgomery avenue. In a dying statement Mrs. Cal- lahan charges the notorious midwife with having performed the fatal criminal op- eration. Two days ago Mrs. Callahan was sent to Bt. Joseph's Hospital for treatment. She told of the operation and her condi- tion was very serfous. Dr. Willlam J. Hawkins at once secured a statement from the woman in the presence of two other physicians connected with the in- stitution. Mrs. Callahan said she realized she was about to die and freely told of the occasion of her iliness. She says she visited Mrs. Fuhrig at 1445 Ellis street on | Friday, October 11. The sum of $7 50 was paid and the operation performed. She called at the Ellis street address on three other occasions, and, her condition be- coming alarming, solicited treatment of Dr. Drossel. The last named advised her to go immediately to the hospital, which she did. Everything possible was done to save her life, but she expired yester- day. Dr. Hawkins notified Coroner Leland and the body was moved to the morgue. Detectives Cody and Anthony were de- tailed at once on the case and arrested Mrs. Fuhrig at her home.

Justices and Constables of O’Neil Township Are in Danger. P LD s STOCKTON, Oct. 31.—With the sanction | of the Attorney General, District Anor-i ney Norton of San Joaquin County flled complaints in two suits to oust the two | Justices and two Constables of O'Neil | Township, elected at the last election. The contention of the District Attorney is that under the State law calling for/ two Justices and two Constables in town- ships having €000 or more in population, these men have been illegally elected, the last previous census before election show- ing less than 5000 population. The matter is further complicated by | the fact that the old officlals claim to be still entitled to hold their offices, and by | the fact that in the event the court de- clares one Justice and one Constable should have been elected there will be | some difficulty in determining which is entitled to serve. The salaries of both | old and new officlals are tied up and the | result of the suit will be awaited with'in- | terest, both here and in other parts of | the State. | TACOMA—Salled Oct 30—Stmr Mineola, for San_Francisco, Arrived Oct 30—Bktn Quickstep, from Santa Rosalla.

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 1. “The Betrothal Next Sunday Gall’s Art Supplement November 8th CARL MUCKE’S FAMOUS PICTURE, ‘‘THE BETROTHAL.” THE BETROTHAL. Sunday Call Art Supplement A great artist once said that the. most sutcessful genre pictures have always for their subjects some- thing relating to love or war. It is only natural that love, which every living being is destined t6 experience, should furnish subjects which attract, and the only as- pect of the contrasting emotion of hate which is pot despicable is war, and even that is ennobled only by a love of country or a love of right. Carl Mucke’s picture, “The Betrothal,” depicts the action which is a formal acknowledgment of the exist- ence of love, but at the same time the attitude of the figures of the young man and woman, their expression and their regard tell more than actions of giving and accepting the betrothal ring, which-is but a symbol The fact that the principal roles in the scene are played by a humble Dutch fisherman and his dulcinea only serves to strength the sentiment of the picture be- cause the sentiment of love is generally conceded to have a stronger hold on the simple minds of the lowly than upon minds distracted by multiplicity of consid- erations which beset people in higher walks of life.

A NEW court of the order known as the Tribe of Beri Hur was insti- tuted recently” in Mission Masonic Hall with eighty charter members and is the second in this city. It has been desig- nated as Mission Court. This order, which is comparatively new in this State, is a fraternal beneficlal one and the language of the ritual is founded on Wallace's “Ben Hur.” The ritual is said to be full of grand precepts and calculated by the lessons it teaches to make. better -men and women of its members, who are of both sexes. Mizpah Court No. 1, which meets in the 0dd Fellows’ building, has -of late shown a great deal of activity by adding to its membership. At a recent meeting, after the routine business was over, the mem- bers and visitors had a game of progres- sive whist, and it was made apparent that there are a great many good players in the court. It is probable that the court will start a whist tournament in a short time. Ancient Order Workmen.
