FUNNY NAVAL ETIQUETTE.
A Strange Complication of Flags at the
BROOKLYN Navy Yard.


Another of the serio-comic dramas
for which the navy is famous is just
now going on at the Brooklyn navy
yard 1t is touch of ''Pinafore" in
real life, and illustrates anew how i'm
mensely important navy officers be-
come when they get far enough along
in rank to be able to fly flag of their
own.
There are now at the Brooklyn sta
ton two tiagships-the Philadelphia,
commanded by Bancroft Gherardi,
real admiral. and the Chicago, COM
manded by John G. Walker, a commo-
dore, who is acting as an admiral while
in charge of the White Squadron. The
station itself is commanded by Henry
Erben, a commodore.
Both Gherardi and Walker are senior
to Erben and as long as either is on
board his flagship the commandment can
not fly his flag and he is thus put in the
embarrassing, not to say horrible, posi-
ton of exercising an important COM
mand without being able TO carry aioft
the symbol of his authority. This is
one of the things that Jack" draws
fun and satisfaction from, for the
sailor man always delights in any,
thing that harries the feelings of his
commander. 1t is one way he has OF
getting even. The commandment OF a
station is, therefore, in more or less of
a ridiculous position while senior flag
officer is in port and the flag officer usu-
ally realizes this and gets himself out
of the way. This is what Commodore
Walker did, and most considerably, too,
for the feelings of his junior. Commo-
dore-Commandant Erben- When the
Chicago came TO port he scuttled out
and went to the Brevoort house to
berth, leaving his chief OF staff. Capt.
Frederick Rodgers, in charge of the
ship
There has long been professional
feud between Admiral Gherardi and
Commodore Walker. 1t has been the
talk OF the country. Doubtless this
feud explains why Commodore Walker
did not go to the navy yard in his flag
ship. He would have been liable TO
find the admiral, in the Philadelphia,
at the station, in which horrible event
he would have had TO haul down the
flag in the presence of the enemy and
in Difference to his superior rank That
is mainly what is keeping Commodore
Walker away from the navy yard row.
Besides, they are only scraping and re-
pairing ships anyway, and the admiral's
job when that is going on isn't very
pressing, so his absence causes neither
howls OF anguish nor destruction to the
service. When Admiral Gherardi was
in port last fall he considerably staid
away from his ship, or only came on
board unoficially. in citizens dress, SO
that the commandment could IL his pen

4 Country Where Matrimonial Knots Are
Easily United.
Abyssinia is country where, if mar

On the marriage day the bridegroom
presents himself with his best man at
the house of his future father-in-law.
Much feasting goes on till the bride is

girls and boys, methodically lifting
their arms above their heads, and clap

tlong the tanks of the procession, who
tlso blow long trumpets.
The happy couple that I saw mar
tied outstripped their followers with
the exception of their best man, and at
last reached the town green, where the
groomsmen formed screen with their
rloaks round the happy pair, when the
Referred courtship began,
1t is custom for the supporters of
the groom, generally six in number, to
be present on this occasion, and for
many days afterward to go round visit
Ing the houses of the mutual friends of
the married pair, extolling the beauties
of the bride and the accomplishments
Of the groom, generally finishing up
with grotesque dance, which is much
enjoyed by the enthusiastic neighbors
providing round the open doorway.
Though this marriage can be an

QUIT can not be said to be ended, for
settlement of the delicate point of au-
thority, and etiquette involved is still
pending, as far as any body knows
In the fall of 90 Commodore George
Brown was detached from the command
of the Norfolk navy yard and placed in
command Of the Pacific squadron as an
acting admiral The commodore need
ed no pull TO get this billet over the
heads of two admirals who might have
gone to sea just as well as not, for he
was an Indiana man originally, and
was very well thought of at the white
house, besides being an officer whose
record justified the confidence the pres
ident reposed on him.
At the time Commodore Benham, who
is Browns senior. and a great stickler in
the matter of rank distinctions, COM
manded the Mare island station. 1t
was necessary fer Commodore Brown
to 90 to this yard with his flagship, the
Charleston, to fit out. He went as an
acting admiral and ordinarily would
have been given an admiral's salute Of
thirteen guns This Is customary the
world over but there seems TO be no alb

s1.50 The Continental" campaign
suit is made of dark blue cloth, trimmed
with buff, and consists of coat, vest,
Knickerbocker leggings and three
cornered hat. This suit will cost the
partisan $3.50, but the orders for it are
already very numerous, and it will be
frequently seen in the parades.
CapeS will be worn as much as ever
and these will cost as high as SIS for
the Havelock and S25 for the 19-inch
design.
Then there are helmets and caps of
all sorts and descriptions for campaign
clubs. The white beaver-napped hats
for republicans will cost SIS per dozen,
while the bearskin shakos come to $50.
One feature Of the last campaign has
disappeared from view. This is the old
bandanna. In opposition to it the old
flag handkerchief was brought out four
years ago, and this still fourishes.
Then there are umbrellas, which will
be a great feature of this campaign.
Last campaign the republicans carried
the flag design and the democrats the
red bandanna umbrella. This year this
last has been changed to a unique new
figure in red, white and blue. In canes
the old styles remain intact.
There are no changes in torches or
fambeau outfits and all the old ma
terial will be ''in full swing" again.

''After the grasses the most widely

most useful of all vegetable products to
mankind the latter are among the most
useless. Whether found in marshes,
bitches or by running streams, flourish

rocks, growing On the loose sand of the
seashore or elsewhere, they are almost

some few members of the family serve

which are employed in the manufacture

times the 'papyrus, likewise belonging

almost a million hats in stock, the
Blaine boom began. Well, to say that
we were all of cold perspiration is
putting it mildly. We simply sprinted
up to Minneapolis, and every hat drum
mer in the business gave vent to an
amount and degree of enthusiasm never
dreamed of by the ordinary political
bowler.
''We howled in the morning, we
worked in the afternoon and we prayed
at night. Well, Blaine was beaten and
the campaign hat trade was saved. Of
Cleveland's nomination we were fairly
