A thousand fleets from every zone

My Evening Hymn.

Just a little child. Lord.
Lying down TO sleep;
just a little life, Lord.
In your goodness keep.
Tired with my play. Lord,
And my happy day
1 will lay me down, Lord,
And this prayer say:
Bless the friends who love me,
All whom / hold dear
Father. mother, sisters
Guard and guide them here.
Bless the little flowers
In the garden gay:
May they come up brightly
On another day.
Give the brides shelter
In the trees tonight:
May they sing TO Thee, Lord,
With the morning light.
Bless all sorts OF creatures,
Keep them I'm thy care;
Make them safe and happy
Here and everywhere.
Please send me an angel
To stand by my bed;
May his radiant presence
Shine around my head
Come yourself, Lord Jesus,
To your little one;
Put your arms around me
Till my race is run.
Just a little child. Lord.
Going fast asleep;
just a little life. Lord,
Now in safety keep.

Tug Down the Bay.
Brazilian Fleet May Sail . Week
from To-day.

President peixoto's representatives are
determined to ge: FL cd into fighting
quarters with Mcl.u's fleet and ready for
conf let regardless Of regulations here.
In orIr' not to violate the municipal
law refusing such vessels the right to
take aborl ammunition, ri CIi will b,
followed from her wharf by II tug carry
ing ammunition. which will be transferred
to the mlkc-sh'ft man-ot.war down the
bay. As the regulation IS only municipal.
Mr.. kafcr, Superintendent Of the Morgan
Iron Works, said this morning thar II
would not ~ necessary to max. tn"
transfer beyond the ihree-mile hmit from
shore.
TINS declaration from Mr. Kaber seems
to Indicate that the Brazilian fleet viii
leave here IN fighting. tim and may 4,
direct to the port OF Rt" Jaueiru aud
attack MellO's fleet without the Itlay OF
going To another port to take ON board
Brazilian officers.
1t IS understood that city officials have
been watching III 'li closely IL SEE that
no ammunition Is taken ON board.
Mr.. kafer Is OF the opinion that Their"
VIII be- no violation Of the provision
T. transfer the ammunition Viii, III
tI1 Is away from shore. Il understand
he said. that ammunition for the
l~iotchkiss guns VIII he furnished by
the Hotchkiss people, but | have nothing

be ready for service when 1t gets out
side Sandy Hook"
With regard to the possibility that
Mello may get tugs to ram FL cd and
Britannia, MIR kafer said these vessels
would be on the lookout, and in case
Mello's tugs appear they will either be-
ueppered with shot from the smail
Hotchkiss gus or else left ehind
1T Will be impossible he said. for
the PeiAoto ships to b." surprised. At
night they will sweep the So. all aroun |
with powerful search-iights. The sug-
gestion that the tugs might carry United
States flags until near enough To 10 dam
II such should he done FL cid and
britannia could run away in case there
was m suspicion
MIR. Kafer stated that the big dynamite
gun would be brought down from cold
Spring to-day. ani Immediately placed on
FL cid. II will h. transferred on a
wrecking tug with a big derrick, and
cd.
Britannia was taken TO the docks at
the foot OF Pike street this morning. 1t
is expected that she win be ready IA
soon as El Cd. The work on both will
be completed about a week from to-day.
Mr.. kafer said, and will probably sail
Immediately.
Notwithstanding the statement Of the
Brazilian Minister. there is still some
doubt whether the ships will sail away
under the Brazilian flag. or that FL cd
Will carry the stars and Stripes and
Brittania the Union Jack. Dnr Of the
Brazilian officers said this morning that
Is Is IN" arrangement now to carry the
Brazilian flag. He emphasized the
words ARRANGEMENTS now" and when
asked II a change Of plans was under
consideration remained silent

lieve that the oid-fashionci girl of the
threc-voiumn novel, who fdints in the
face Of danger, l. q creature of flesh and
blood. should he unleceived at once. If
She ever existed. the species is for
tunltely extinct, for the girls of to-day
are made Of entirely different stuff.
This was proven Conclusively in West
Philadelphia recently. when Miss Alice
Sypher, q daughter of Lawyer Josiah Il.
Syrher, put a burglar to flight and near
Is ended his earthly career. The thief
entered Miss Sypher's room, and. instead
of soaring her half TO death. found him
self looking down the mu2zle of a re-
volver. The fellow had nerve. however.
and cdre.essiy remarking, That Isn't
loaded started to walk towards her.
But it was loaded, as the thief discov-
cred when n bullet whIzzed within an
inch of his hCl and imbedded Itself in
the door panel. With an oath the batied
burglar few down the stairs and escaped
through the front door.

WATCH THE VOTE.

The Republican plurality for Senator
Fassett for Governor, above the liar.
lem River, in 1891 was smaller than II
had ever been for n Republican candi.
date since the formation OF the party,
with the exception OF the Folger vote In
1852. or than 1t has been since.
Mr.. Fassett's aggregate pluralities I'm
the rural districts. exclusive OF SUI
folk. amounted TO a., glg. The next low
est Republican pluraliti-s wer" east for
Gilbert for Secretary OF state, In 1889,
and they were 1900 larger than FLs-
sets pluralitles. Harrison had 900 in
1855, or nearly double Fassett's plurali-
ties. and 1900 in 1892.
1t has been rumor- that the Republic
can party is not supporting It's State
candidates In good faith this year. In
Buffalo last Saturday. Senator HIN said
that Judge Maynard would receive mar
thousands Of Republican votes in the
state. 1t has. indeed. been claimed that
he looks to Republican support for his
success.
The vote will prove an interesting
study when the election is over. In this
city it is very well known that the Re
publican leaders have made their own
bargains and trades with ~Tammany. But
the pluralities in the country districts.
or in the State above the Harlem River.
