THE NAVAL "HISTORIAN" DEFIES THE ORDER OP THE PRESIDENT. Claiming Thai He la Protected by Ibe Civil Service Rales, the "Special Laborer" lo Ibe Navy Department R.-lnaea to Realgn and Will Demand a Naval Court Trial. New York, Deo.-28.—Edgar Stanton Maolay, whose connection with the Schley case led President Roosevelt to rcqnest his resignation as special la borer in the navy, made formal demand today for trial by usual naval pro- oedu-a He averred that his ease oame under the oivil service law, and ttat he could not be dismissed without formal oharges, trial and conviotion. The re quest for his resignation was sent to him byRear Amiral Barker, commander of the navy yard at Brooklyn, and he replied at onoe by letter, formally set' ting forth his position. Disoussing the case, Haolay said: “The president cannot have me din. missed under the laws as I see it. I do %ot see how he oan foroe me out. I am prot cted by the oivil servloe laws en- aote I by the congress, .whose enact ments the president is bound to exeoute. I do not know positively,* but I believe my position under oivil servioe furnishes me complete protection so long as I vio late no rules of the servloe, and that I have not done, and I have so stated in my letter to the commandant, in answer to the request for my resignation. No, I did not say (hat the president is aB bad as the ozar of Russia. "I have done nothing more than write the commandant and ask that the charges be preferred ngainsl me, and 1 will do nothing more just now. I have not been suspended and am working here today, as I have been doing for fifteen months. T have tried to do my duty here and have broken no rules, and shall simply stand by my rights, more for the principle of the matter than anything else, for my position here puyd me very little, sndiB chiefly valu able because of the experience and in formation it affords me as material for my books.” Rear Admiral Barkor forwarded Maclay’s letter to Washington.

The Splingfleld Republican tells a new story of the days when Mark Twain was a'haok writer in San Franoisco on a weekly salary represented by one figure, Bret Harte and Joaquin Miller serving on the same staff with like pay. A woman of means who patronized Bohemia and gave the impecunious stragglers many a good dinner saw Mark Twain] standing with a cigar box under hiB arm and looking hungrily in at a confectioner's window. The patroness of letters asked what was in the box. “Oh," drawled the humorist, “I’m moving again,” in sluggish liver, HERBINE, by its beneficial aotion upon the billavy traots, renders the bile more fluid, and brings the Tver into a Bound, healthy condi tion, thereby banish-ng the sense of drowsiness, lethargy, and the general feeling of apathy whioh ailse from dis orders of the .liver.
