few Americans than they did before.
And the few Americans felt it was just
the thing for foreigners to do, when
they proudly looked upon the stars and
stripes floating from those majestic
white ships in the harbor. | said to
Admiral Walker that there were five
American ships in port on one of the
days he was here. That was a tremen-
dous number. The admiral remarked
since he began his cruise in November
last, besides his own, he had seen Just
one vessel carrying the American flag,
and that was James Gordon Bennett's
yacht. The town was saluted from the
Chicago. Rear-Admiral Walker with
his staff called upon the governor to
pay his respects: the governor returned
the call with his staff the next day.
And on the third day after arrival the
squadron steamed out of the bay for
Rio, and a little band of two Americans
watched them as they moved out and
thought what grand sight it is to see
the beginning of our fleet and to carry
with them the pleasing and glorious
remembrance of having seen five Ameri-
can ships in a foreign port at one and
the same time. 1t is indeed rare sight

HOBBIES For BOYS.

The wise mother will be glad to find
that her boy has hobby. 1t may not be
Just the one she would choose, she may
even see good objections to it, and yet she
will prefer it to his having no interest in
anything. The boys who get into bad
company and bad habits are the boys
whose time hangs heavy on their hands,
and who never know what to do next
In short, the boys who haven't any hob
bies. \ boy with a hobby is never at
loss how to use his spare time and never
falls into temptation because he doesn't
know what else TO do. He always has
something ahead which he is trying to
reach, and the effort occupies his time
and thoughts.
Especially in vacation is hobby valu-
able, and we should advise every mother
whose boy has no hobby to get him start
ed on one at once. This is usually a very
easy matter, for boys are enthusiasts by
nature, and by skill and care a mother
may often succeed in starting her boy
would prefer to have him go. Interest
in some branch of natural science is, on
many accounts, most desirable, and it is
getting quite common to find boys en-
thusiasts about birds, insects, plants or
stones.
Among half dozen boys of the writ
ers' acquaintance one has passion for
insects and is always on the lookout for
something new in this line, another Is

The San Saba news. [volume] (San Saba, Tex.) 1873-1966, 1890-01-24

When Augustine, in his home at Carthage,
resolved to visit Rome, his mother wished
.iiher to prevent him from going, or to 90
with him. He would listen TO neither pro-
posal, and resorted to trick to carry out
his plan. One evening he went to the sea-
shore and his mother followed. There were
two chapels dedicated to the memory of the
martyr Cyprian, and he pressed her to spend
one evening in the church of the martyr,
while he would accompany a friend on
board q ship, there to say farewell.
While she was there in tears, praying
and wrestling with God to prevent
the voyage. Augustine sailed for Italy,
and his deceived mother next morning
found herself alone. In quiet resignation
she returned to the city and continued to
pray for the salvation Of her son. Though
meaning well, yet she erred in her prayers,
for the journey of Augustine was the means
of his salvation. The denial OF the prayer
was, in fact. the answering of it. Instead Of
the husk. God granted rather the substance
OF her petition in the conversion of her son.
Therefore said he, 20 God, thou hast re-
gard TO the aim and essence of her desires,
and didst not do what she then prayed for,
that thou mightst do for me what she con-
tinbally implored. Anon.
