Bordered by quirky lines,
Covered with quaint designs
Tortuous trees and vines
Drawn arabesquely;
Here are grim griffins seen,
Rivers of purple sheen,
Maidens in red and green,
Smiling grotesquely.
HAPPY beyond the seas,
Under the bamboo trees,
Some jaunty Japanese
Damsel possessed it;
HAPPY her lover, too,
When there was none to view,
Novers quite often dol
Kissed and caressed it.
Now tbs Jeannette's, and she
Waves it SO witchingly
Wheneer she strays with me
Down through the meadow,
That all my pulses stir,
Thinking of it and her
Hang it! / wish it were
Back there in Yeddo!

NEW YORK, Aug. 10.-Secretary Whitney visited the Brooklyn Navy Yard to-day and spent some hours in conference with Com mander Chandler. Beyond the fact that the names of various applicants for the vacant foremanships were examined nothing could be learned about the conference. Afterward Secretary Whitney, his brother-in- law, MT. Payne, Commander Chandler and Admiral Jouett went aboard the Despatch where they were sumptuously entertained by Captain Emory of Arctic fame. The Secre- tary told reporter that he had not selected the foremen yet, but would in day or two. ''Do you intend to build two steel cruisers in this yardq' asked the reporter. "Well, de- cline to be interviewed. Whenever I do anything usually put it in writing. There is no doubt that matters will soon assume a very brisk appearance. Draughtsman Jackson has made requisition for $3,00O worth of iron machinery and I think that looks like business" This terminated the interview.

A NOISE IN THE CELLAR Leads a Merchant Into Fatal Contact
 With a RurgIar.

r
 With a Burglar.
 BROOKLYN, Aug. 10.-Albert R. Herrick, well known liquor merchant of New York, was shot and killed at his residence No. 239 Pearl street, this morning. He had just come over from New York and it is supposed heard noise in the cellar and went to see the cause. A shot was heard and moment later MT. Herrick staggered out of the base ment door crying "Help, murder, police, burglar.'' He was dead before assistance arrived. He held small piece of candle in his hand and the police at once concluded he must have been searching for a burglar and was shot by him. A man was seen to scale the fence in the rear of the house few minutes after the shot was fired, but here all trace is lost. The house YVES unoccupied at the time, Mrs. Herrick being away in the country for the summer Thomas Armstrong, son of Mrs. Herrick's by former husband, was being searched for to-day, but had not been at his place of business since Saturday. The police are lieently at work on the case and hope to soon get on the trail of the murderer.
 Later-Thomas J. Armstrong, or, as he is better known, Thomas J. Herrick, the step son of the murdered man, was arrested in Hoboken late tonight at the house of his aunt. It is now learned that a short time previous to the murder Armstrong was de- tected trying to force an entrance to the house ahd was arrested, but upon explaining that he was a stepson of the ow der was re- leased. He is very reticent regarding his movements, but enough is known by the po- lice it is said to fasten the crime upon him.
