This is';. Press Day. -It. is the day set
apart by the Board of Directors of the
Carnival Association in honor of the
newspaper men to whom the success of
the festivities are in no little measure due.
These gentlemen of the Board of Direct
ors recognize that no matter how credi
table'an entertainment their, money and
wisdom may provide .unless .the people
know about/it; little will come of it.
And to-day the only successful way to
advertise -. aiid create interest/ is recogniz
ed to be through the newspapers; in ' city
and country. The' country editors with
their weekly papers that go into every,
home can make or break almost any en
tertainment they choose. They and their
brother newspapermen of the cities iiave
done much for this year's Carnival, and
to-day's festivities are in their honor.
The local newspaper men will meet the
visitors at noon and go with them through
the'shows;/ At * o'clock" a; reception and
concert by Phinny's Band will be tender
ed them at the. Eiffel Tower. ._ ■
-•A banquet will close the day.-. This will
be given ,at the Lexington Hotel at
9 P. M.
\. varied menu has been arranged. Cov
ers will be laid for. about thirty-five.
There will be plenty of music and some
bright speeches. The Ide* Reporter, Mr.
Evan R. Chosterman, will t>/the toast-^
' m The er "Governor. the. Mayor? .President
Meyer, of the Carnival Association; Mr.
L. Z. Morris, the King, of -the .Carnival,:
Mr "A. B. '■- Williams; and; others -will be
among the speakers, while ; Mr: E. H.
Clowes, .Captain I?- W. Cunningham and

of securing a. short extension by the

The State Department is busying ltself

ADMIRAL NOT IN GOOD HEALTH^ ,
"I 'am in:;a f position/to Btate. .the, ;true
facts,- and you may/ absolutely.: rely.; upon
them* as the truth: The proofs were sent
by/ Mr; Maclay.to , Admiral Sampson, ;. with
the request that ; they,, should be read and
corrected.' /The Admiral/at/the time was
not . in good ; health, . and/ did • hot /wish ... to
undertake the ■■.-. labor, but : his secretary
pointed out that the Maclay/ history was
a-standard one; . and'.. uped. at the Naval,
Academy as ;a /text-book.',, :,This; volume
■•.brought*, the history down through/ the
■period of the Spanish war,. arid/it was de
sirable that. 1 there should be "no rinac

consented.- to read them, -and hedid.cor
rect a. certain 'part/of .them,, but as; soon
: as . h e arrived at the part wh ich; contain
ed the ■' statement that Schley was a

the author had ; no right; to : - make;
that it was unjust and /unfair/ to > speak
of any naval officer in such, terms,; and
he declined/ to have ;any thing further

: "HOW MACLAY .WAS. ; . MISLED.
"His secretary, impressed with, the
great 'desirability .of having .the -state

"that *he was in any; way .responsible for
the statements of ; opinion, did;;.pn/his

ber of corrections. .As these were in the

sonal attention : to : the :.--. correction, Mr.
Maclay was perfectly Justified .in , his
statement. The order of :,the Secretary
of - the Navy, forbidding naval officers to
