Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 25.—Morris Gold-
berg, aged 34 years, was standing outside
his place of business when he was ap-
proached by two friends.
“We just heard a new joke,” said one,
and Goldberg asked about it.
“Why does a chicken cross the street?”
said one friend.
Morris was unable to solve the question,
but when the joker gave the answer that
the chicken crossed the street to get on
the other side, Goldberg opened his mouth
and laughed so loudly that he could be
heard half a square away.
He continued laughing for ten minutes,
when his mirth was cut short by disloca-
tion.of the law.

Capital of $3,000,000 Subscribed for New
One in New York City.
By Associated Press.
New York, Aug. 20.—According' to re-
ports circulated yesterday in the financial
district, a new life insurance company is
being organized and more than $3,000,000
already has been subscribed toward its
capitalization. The list of men who have
signified their intention of taking stock
includes some of the wealthiest and best
known financiers in the country.
It is understood the promoters will not
take definite steps toward beginning busi-
ness until $5,000,000 has been subscribed.
Non-participating policies will be issued
and it is planned to make the cash value
of these policies practically the full re-
serve. On other words, if a policyholder
desires to realize on his policy during his
life^ the full legal reserve will be paid to
his less 5 per cent.

There is weeping and walling in the
younger social set today because of the
departure of the F. E. Mistrot family
this evening at 7 o’clock for St. Louis,
their new home. The girls and boys ot
this set feel the absence. of Miss Cecile
Mistrot’s companionship very keenly and
in a body will be at the station to say
farewell. Little Misses Mary and Eva
Mistrot are grieving over the separation
from their many friends, thus the removal
of the family means much to all sets and
sizes. Mr. Mistrot is in Shreveport, La.,
where he went to get Felix Mis trot, jr.,
who has been with his grandmother since
the quarantine against that city. Mrs.
Mistrot and her three daughters will
-meet Mr. Mistrot in St. Louis.

Miss Maie O’Rourke returned yester-
day from Beaumont, wher’e she spent
several days with Miss Alma McCormack.

will leave for Chicago, New York and

where Miss Maie O’Rourke will resume
her studies at the National Park.
Washington, D. C.., Aug. 26.—The naval
board appointed by the secretary of the
navy to conduct the tests on the floating
dry dock Dewey, has completed its work
and handed in a voluminous report. A
number of different tests were conducted,
all of which were successful, and there is
no doubt but that the navy department
will accept the dock from its builders as
conforming in every particular with the
contract.
The dock first raised the cruiser Colo-
rado, and two weeks later the most severe
test of all, the raising of the battleship
Iowa, was given, the dock raising her in
less than two hours, the contract calling
for four. This was the most severe test
on account of the extreme weight of the
battleship and the fact that her weight
was concentrated under her turrents, or
about amidships.
Some of the Maryland congressmen
have been interested in having the dock
remain at Solomons and using that place
as one of the government’s repair yards.
The natural advantages of the place af-
ford a most excellent harbor, with an
abundance of water.
It is not thought, however, that this
will be done, and the Dewey dock will
soon start on its 3900-mile journey to the
Phillipines. In the navy department does
see an advantage >n having a dock in
the Chesapeake, it is probable that an-
othe rdock will be built.

The weekly dance at the Boat and Yacht
club last evening was largely attended.
The evening was similar to the others of
the series which are all alike in arrange-
ment, yet each different to the guests.
The difference being that each was better
than the one before. Though Madame
Luna was not present the wind monarch,
King Aeolus, was on hand, and a good
breeze is more to be desired these summer
evenings than even fairy moonlight. A
Virginia reel was danced amid much
clapping of hands and swinging of part-
ners. The evening opened at 8 o’clock
and Home Sweet Home would have had
a “call back” if the guests had been
consulted, for the hours were merry and
joyous.
