THR OLD SHIP,

The most renowned old ship in his
tory had bad shaking up at sea, the
other day, and as our readers have no
ticed, fears were entertained OF her loss.
We refer to the time-honored frigate
Constitution" But she has again
come home safe, though somewhat dam
aged by the storm which she encoun-
tered. The event has revived interest
in her glorious history, which reads like
a novel. Her keel was laid in Boston
As early as 1894, but it was not until
1898 that she went into commission. In
1900, whilst the Constitution was of
Fort Platte, Hayti, Lieutenant Isaac
HULL manned a small sloop from her
crew and running into that port, board
ed aud cut out a French letter-of-
maroue and landed and spiked the guns
of the battery. In 1903, flying the
broad pcnnant OF Commodore Preble,
the Constitution led the fleet that hum
bled Tripoli. But her great renown was
gained in the war Of 1912, when she
won the title of "Old Ironsides."
She sailed from Annapolis, Maryland,
july ~, under command OF Commodore
Isaac HULL, and had scarcely gotten be-
yond the capes when she encountered
a strong English fleet, but by superior
seamanship, after hard chase, she sue
ceeded in reaching the friendly port oil
Boston. Sailing from there she encount'
cred the Guerrero, one of the vessels
that had unsuccessfully chased her, and
after hall hours engagement that fine
war ship was her prize. In September,
1912, Commodore BAINBRIDaE took COM
mand, ana off the coast OF Brazil cap.
tured the Java, after brief conflict.
Commander CHARLES STEWART, father oil
Mrs. PARsELL, was given command in
1914, and in January, 1915, encountered
the English irigates Cyane, thirty-four
guns, and the Levant, twenty-one, both
Of which he crippled and captured in
forty minutes. OF late years the Con-
stitution has been employed in peaceful
service. In 1879 she was sent to the
Paris Exposition with portion OF the
American exhibits. Latterly the Con-
stitution has been used as receiving
ship for naval apprentices.

A wonderful story is floating
around, originating in Middletown,
New York. Twelve years ago
Miss Cole, maiden lady, had the
misfortune, it is said to swallow a
set of false teeth, which became
detached from the rubber plate
while she was masticating her food
The teeth csused no discomfort.
and she had forgotten the circum.
stance until a few days since,
when one of the teeth was cut
from beneath the skin on her
shoulder. Since then, the lady has
been cutting teeth all over heI
body, and had at last accounts
recovered twelve of the fourteen
teeth that had formerly constituted
her full set. She is anxiously
awaiting the arrival of the Other
two. She has placed the teeth in
glass case, and will keep them a:
mementoes.

~ Some say that it Is no use for them
to advertise, that they have been i'm the
place in business all their lives, and
everybody knows them. Such people
seem to forget TO take in consideration
that our country is increasing in pOpu-
lation nearly 40 percent every ten years,
and no matter how old the place may be,
there are constant changes taking place:
some move TO other parts, and strangers
fill their places. In this age of the
world, unless the name of business
firm is kept constantly before the public,
some new firm may start up, and. by
liberal advertising, in a very short time
take the place Of the older ones. and the
latter rust out, as it We're. and be forgot

eious advertising.

Consular Reports.

The fifth number of the monthly
publication by the department of
state is just out. Like the preced-
ing numbers, this issue is filled
with interesting and valnable-nat-
ter to all who watch the progress
of foreign nations in industry or
our own relations herewith. Sec
retary Blaine not only partakes of
the same interest in our commerce
as did Secretary Eyarts, but also
possesses a zeal that evinces his
determination to use the consular
corps for the purpose that IT was
intended, the promotion and protec-
tion OF American commerce. In
championing the hog-export Mr..
Blaine is establishing protection
for all our exports, as viii
be seen in the reports published
from some six or seven consuls,
showing the unjust influences used
against American exports in Eu-
rope. Thesereports are opportune
and important, especially as bear
ing upon the hog question; at
present, a product that in our ex-
ports exceeded last year Sl00,000,-
900 in value, thereby reaching
third as an American staple de-
manded abroad. There are also
some forty or fifty other reports
in this monthly on almost every
subject of trade. For information
and reliable matter, we command
these reports for general interest.

The Boston Herald believes that
"the unwrittcn law of the senate -
which excludes new senators from
debates, is a good deal of a hum
bug. The deadlock session is
having some effect in breaking the
force of this rule, and it is to be
hoped that such good speakers
and debaters as Congcr, Hale,
Frye, and HawIey will feel in
clined TO speak their sentiments
right out. The session is peculiar
and warrants a departure from
precedent.
