The bEhTH DECK
is the living room Of the sailors on board
the Dale and here they eat and sleep and
spend much of their leisure smoking and chat
ting in little sociable groups. Along the side
Of the deck are ranged long tables with
benches drawn up beside each, and on these
tables the ratiOns Of the men are served.
Securely fastened in the wood work of the cell

are hung at night During the dav these are

hung up they make comfortable beds for tired
men. The Dale carries regular crew Of forty
men. Besides these and the men who are
waiting to be transferred there are always q
number of apprentices on board and generally
q crew of picked men who are taking, as it were,
an advanced course in gunnery and other naval
studies. Apprentices are received from the
ages of fourteen to eighteen and are kept until
they are twenty-one, when they become able
seamen. They are transferred from here to
Newport where, after six months, they Join

three-decker. capable Of holding 1000 boys.
They are instructed in marching. handling of
small arms and seamanship. They also attend
school for three or four hours every day. Thus

makes them a desirable element in the navy.

Inc 1eOr8etOWn Amateur Orchestra.
1t was pleasant to see worthy ambition and
earnest effort SO we'll rewarded as thew were
last evening by the very large attendance, not
outstanding the storm, at the spublic re-
hearsar' of the Georgetown amateur orchestra
in Music hall. The performance itself was
worthy OF an ample recognition, for so excel
lent results from amateur effort. in that most
difficult and complex department. of music.
orchestral playing, are very rare. An excellent
quality OF tone, clearness and generally we'll
preserved balance among the parts. intelligence
and discretion in following the conductors in
dications as to shading and tempo and, above
all, purity and correctness Of information that
were seldom interrupted by untuneful mo-
ments gave an unusual distinction to the work
of the Georgetown orchestra. They were best
displayed in the Highlands overture of
Gade, the most ambitious attempt upon
the program and one which resulted in
a performance with many qualities of real
musical value. 1t would. of course, be easy to
point out many places where the orchestra ex-
posed Its weakness; some Of the foolish intri-
cacies Of the Lumbye Dream visions" fantasia
were bad failures, and there were, too, moments
Of terror from the undue vigor with which the
drums and triangle we're played in SEVERAL of
the numbers. But 1t is the more grateful taste
OF criticism to note that the amateur standard
was distinctly surpassed. The orchestra was
assisted by Miss Bertha Lincoln, soprano.
whose sweet voice was displayed to better ad-
vantage in the two German lieder than in the
great dramatic scene from "Der Freischnetz:
she sang Coming Through the Rye" as an en-
core. Mr.. George Iseman, piano, whose Der,
formance OF the Leszt Hungarian fantasia was
more pleasing to the ear than to the eye, and
Miss Annie A. Parke, cornet, who played Sulli-
vans Lost Chord" - an encore upon that

applause, and the two ladies many handsome
flowers.

When Shall We Get Better Meat

mails. Cattle and sheep not kept princi-
pally for milk and wool. but for beef and
mutton.
2nd. When we stop starving our
calves and lambs. and feed literally from

3rd. When we feed better grass Our
pastures are often disgraceful. If land is
too rough TO plow and too poor to grow

land, we let the water drown out the vaiu-
able grasses. and weeds, rusheS and coarse
grass take their place.

Of fattening few cattle and sheep every

sufficiently to know good meat from bad

THE ATCHSON SOLON.
ATCHIsON GLOBE.

There is eIoquence and pathos in the ST.
lence of fool.
Some people are always talking about
charity because they need it.
Even as pleasant thing as praise is dam
gerous too much of it Is rIdlcule.
We all try to help modest person; we
all try to injure conceited one.
There is only one excuse for the man
who does wrong; it is not hard to do.
How we admire the man who happens to
catch us when we are doing a good deed
onthe sly.
The only good thing that may be said
| of some men is that their existence makes
friends for other men.
You occasionally find a man who knows
| so much that he spoils every pleasure you
would have in learning.
You can hire a man to help you gather
a harvest grown from good seed, but you
| must reap your own tares.
The trouble with some people doing a
good thing is that they waste the rest of
their lives in admiring it.
Some men are like some tickets in lot
| terry. They look all right, but at the criti-
cal time they turn out to be blanks.
If your life has been good you can
not be injured by gossip, but if your life
has been bad a gossip is to be greatly
feared
Even the barking dog does not approve
of his bad habit; when he goes after
sheep at night he generally leaves his bark
at home.
The pity that is given a monstrosity is
wasted. The fat woman at the circus al
ways looks with contempt at her thin sis
ters in the audience
A feather-bed or mattress will remain
clean and in excellent condition for years if
kept in a case made of common sheeting,
which can be removed and washed at
will

BE Kind to the Frogs.

The Governor of Ningpo has just issued
the following proclamation to the agri-
culturists of his district. enjoining them
not to kill certain of the smaller animals.
1t is in a meter of six syllables, as the more
paternal DEGREES of Chinese administration
frequently are: Frogs are produced in
the middle of your fields. small human
beings in form. They chaerish a lifelong
attachment to their natal soil, and at
night they melodiouSly sing in concert with
clear voices. Moreover. they protect your
crops 10y eating lOcustS, thus deserving the
gratitude of the people. Why go after

the harmless and useful things. Although
they may be nice favoring for your rice, it
is heartleSs to fay them HencefOrth it is
forbidden to buy or sell them and those
who do so will be severely punished.
SparrowS, again. sing at their season
Sweetly in the trees. They are not like
wolves, tigers or leopard.. which may take
to inJuring men when they grow large.
Why go out with nets to catch them
all from the hills and woods. Know that
the strong to Slay the feeble for food is the
way of wild beasts and rapaciouS birds
Resist the lust of your mouths and bellies
for Savory meats. and thus act in unison
with Heaven. which loves to preserve life
Both these sorts of creatures you are for
hidden to catch from henceforth. Do not
tatter yourselves that after the warning
your punishment for disobedience will be
mild.
