on June &c as assistant naval construct
or, United States navy, with the rela-
tive rank of lieutenant.
From California he was ordered to
the navy yard, Portsmouth, n. H., in
1870. The five years spent at that sta
were the trying demands upon his
ability. In 1875, after an unusual COM
petitive examination, he received his
commission as naval constructor,
marked No. 1. In the latter part of
rs Mr. Hichborn was detached from
the navy yard, Portsmouth, and or
dered to League Island, Pa. at tf.t
time the old yard was being aban-
doned, and the machinery, stores, ship
houses, etc., were being transported to
the new yard, League Island. The
larger part of this important work de-
volved upon the naval constructor as
the representative Of the construction
plant of the yard. In '76 he also took
a prominent and important part in the
centennial exhibition. In June, 1884,
he was selected by the secretary of the
navy for special duty in Europe. His
report upon European dock yards en-
bodies the resxlt of his investigations.
This work has become a textbook
among the profession. Upon it's first
appearance much concern was mani
tested by foreign powers, for nothing
so exhaustive or conclusive had been
published or obtained before.
For six years Mr.. Hichborn was
member of the board of inspection and
survey, of which the late Admiral D.
d. Porter was president. In 81 he was
made a member of the first naval ad-
visory board, and was prominently as
sociated with all matters affecting the
designing and construction of the new
naval vessels. He has for many years
been a member of the institution of
naval architects in England. In 1884
he was ordered to the navy department
as assistant chief of bureau.
While Mr.. Hichborns lines have
sometimes fallen into pleasant places,
his duties have ever been arduous.
Through his recognized and acknowl-
edged ability he has been selected for
multifarious duties
Mr. Hichborn has devoted good
deal of time to literary work, chiefly
upon subjects of professional nature.
His article upon ''Sheathed or Tn
sheathed Ships" published in the pro-
ceedings OF the naval institute, April,
1890, provoked editorial discussion in
the leading and representative papers
of this country. His advocacy of
sheathing ships is rapidly gaining fa-
vor among the thinking men of the
navy. Besides his professional aad ex-
ecutive ability, Mr.. Hichborn has a
strong inventive turn OF mind.
a life of valuable usefulness has IN
variably characterized his career. and
/. may be truly said that he is self
made man. and has risen By his own
exe-tions to the position Of chief naval
constructor Of the United States navy.
and. IN SO far as we can learn. has
pushed no one aside to reach his pres
e1t high and responsible position.

Slavery in Sam.

Slavery has been abolished in Siam
in name, says q writer in the Contem-
porary Review, but it can never be
abolished in fact. for the slaves have
no means of supporting themselves
outside their masters houses. Every
member Of the Siamese upper classes
can fetter his servants or throw them
into prison without any kind of trial
or permission being necessary. One
morning l went to call upon one of tho
ablest and most enlightened of tho
ministers; a man who has been to Eur
rope, and who once actually got into
serious trouble for trying to inau>
gurate sort of woman's rights move
ment in Siam. I made my way by mis-
take into a part of his grounds where
visitors were not expected, and found
a slave fastened down to tho ground
in an ingenious kind of pillory, in
which he could not move hand or foot,
while another slave tortured him with
severe strokes of bamboo rod at the
word of a member of the family. in
order to force him to confess to some
miSdced.

FEMININE FANCIES.

THE latest social novelty in the south
are engraved announcements of the
advent of infantile additions to fam
lies.
THE fashion Of wearing flowers at
the corsage with afternoon and even
ing toilets has been revived at the
watering places.
The wearing of necklaces in the
morning and on the street is in favor.
Pearls seem to be most popular, and
are certainly pretty, with a summer
gown cut low at the throat.
ARCHERY is SO popular among Eng
lish women that they have Royal
Toxophilite society. 1t is said that
the bow women of few years ago
would not be even among the second
class shots of to-day.
SPECIAL books arc a fad this season,
especially those for youthful brides.
The richest cover for brides prayer
books, which contain only the mar
