We are told by many fashion writers
that large hats and bonnets, with startling
ornaments are the style, and while that is
true it is none the less true that there are
dozens of genteel and becoming hats and
bonnets of modest proportions eminently
suitable for all occasions, most particular

The great fleet of nearly 100 vessels,
that made mp the expedition against
LOuisburg sailed from Boston on the
list day Of April. Favored by wind and
weather 1t soon reached Cape Breton,
and was coastng along the shore of that
island toward its destined haven. In
many of the vessels the soldiers We're
watching the hills and woods on shore
with the interest inspired by new scenes,
but every indentation of the coast was
familiar to most of the Gloucester men,
for they had often been there ON their
fishing voyages. Their attention was
attracted to the singular movements of
a solitary crow that lowered persistently
above them, now and then alighting on
the topmast.
AS they We're entering the harbor of
Louisburg, Martin Sanders was sent for
ward to assist in furling the jib. A
rope parted suddenly under his feet and
he fell headloug into the sea.
The last sound that fell upon his ears
before the rushing waters closed over
him was the hoarse screaming of the
crow. Apowerful current was running,
and it was only with great difficulty
that Sanders was rescued
When the excitement was over, and
the half drowned man was once more
safely on deck, the crow had disappeared.
The fleet cast anchor in the harbor
and countless boats took the men on
shore. Before the siege could COM
mence the cannon must be landed and
placed III favorable position. 1t was
arduous toll, for the soil was DOGGY and
the men often sank to the knees, but all
worked with will and the guns, one
after another. We're landed.
Goodwin and Ayers, with others, were
dragging cannon on IA sledge through
half frozen mud when euddenly with 8
whlr OF wings crow alighted on il.
Job Aver made a dash at it with his
cap. AT I ne very instant that he did so
the rear Of the sledge sank in the treach-
erous soil. she cannon gave a sudden
lurch and i1e arm he had flung out was
caught between the cannon and sledge

PEG WESSON.

1t was in March, 1745, and the CON-
pany raised in Gloucester to join the ex-
petition against Louisburg was to leave
town with the rising of the morrow's
sun. In the spring twilight three young
men made their way, with noisy jest
and song. toward wretched cottage
that stood in the outskirts of the town
and raped loudly for admittance.
The door was opened by withered
old crone. A candle, burning on a
small table, dimly revealed the black
ened walls of the interior, the punches
of herbs hanging from the ceiling, a
scant supply of battered pewter plates
and coarse earthenware ON some shelves
in corner, few old chairs and pack
of worn and greasy cards apparently
just flung down.
"What we here for? Off with ye!' cried
the old woman when she saw who her
visitors were.
"Oh. now, Peggy" said the tallest of
the three in a wheedling tone, "we're
off in the morning for Louisburg, you
know, and we thought we'd pay you a
farewell visit and get our fortunes told"
I'll warrant we've no siller to pay me
wi, Martin Sanders" said Peggy, keep
ing firm grip on the door and pushing
it a little closer as she spoke.
Heres bright new silver sixpence
for We" displaying it as he spoke, "and
Tom and job have more of the same
sort, So now let us come in and give
us good send off"
The money proved an argument not
TO be gainsaid, and Peggy admitted
them. When they We're seated she took
up her cards, shuffled them and pro-
ceeded to tell the young mems fortunes
job Ayers came first, then Tom Good
win. When Martin Sanders turn came,
and Goody Wesson crossed his palm
with the coin he handed her, his imper-
turbable gravity, contrasted with the
snickering of his compan-
ions, made her suddenly suspicious. She
gave him searching glance; then, as
she was about to place the coin on the
table with the others, she scrutinized it
keenly and balanced it on her hand.
Ayers and Goodwin giggled and moved
toward the door. But not the ghost of
a smile passed over Martin Sanders
face. Peg struck the coin smartly
against the base of the iron candlestick
and listened to the sound, then pressed
it against the edge of the table. 1t bent
with the pressure.
Curse We, Mart Sanders" she cried
in sudden fury; ''it's lead!'
Then Martin Sanders laughed, and the
three, roaring with laughter at the
result of their poor trick, opened the
door of Goody NELSON'S cot and rushed
out into the night.
She ran after them, brandishing her
staff and raving like mad woman.
Curse We, Mart Sanders" she

lying down and rising up, sleeping and
waking, living and dying! I'll take
vengeance ON We at Louisburg" The
night wind bore the dismal threat and
its repetition to their ears and silenced
their laughter as they ran down the hill
to their homes i'll the more thickly set
tied part of the town.

WAsHIssTos CRY, Oct. 6.-The bureau
Of naval intelligence has been for some
months preparing a book soon to be issued
to the service. which will be invaluable
both to the merchant marine and the
navies of the world. The book will state
in detail the location of the coaling stations
of the different governments, ship yards,
repair locations, docks, coal capacity Of
stations, quality Of coal, and other matters
relating to the coal supply of vessels bound
on long voyages. The book will show con-
clusively in this respect that the United
States is far worse of than any other
country pretending to be . naval power,
possessing as it does only three foreign
coaling stations, namely: In Honolulu,
La Paz, Mexico, and Samoa. Great Britain
has important stations in all her posses
sions, in many places where coal can be
landed from England for the use of her
vessels Of war as well as her merchant
marine. All are strongly fortified and
garrisoned. The book will further show
that should the United States go to war
there will practically be no foreign ports
outside of her three stations, which are
on the Pacific ocean, where she could hope
to get coal.
