The Dolphin will be busy this summer.
She will start to-day, with Assistant Secre
tary McAdoo, on a trip to embrace the naval
reserve stations.
Starting from Baltimore, the ship will
touch at all the northern ports where head
quarters Of the reserve are. The cruise will
last about. thirty days and may extend to
some Of the southern ports. The Dolphin
will later take Secretary Herbert on a trip
to the naval stations of the north, includ-
Ing New York, Boston, Newport and Ports
mouth There Is no regular station at Bar
Harbor,, but the ship will go there neyerthe-
less. She will reach Newport when the sea-
son is at Its height.
The Register believes that official inspec
non by the naval authorities should be made
course But is not the practice being over
done and too much government coal con-
sumed on junkets? Is the duty to be per-
formed commensurate with the outlay, or
could 1t not be discharged as well and much
more economically by going by rail? These
questions naturally arise, and they will oc-
eur to the voters, we suspect, to the detri-
ment of the service in Congress.-Army and
Navy Register.

Alliance have amalgamated, to all intents
and purposes, and joint call has been
issued for meeting of the three organ

Dryer Of the State Alliance. The call
closes as follows:
Recent decisions of the courts and
recent action by the authorities have put
the very existence of labor organiZa-
tons in great jeopardy, and If these de-
cisons and actions are allowed to pass
unchallenged, the right to organize is
logically denied. 1t is no exaggeration
to say that never in the history of this

AeeonplIsh His Purpose,
The young man was polite but per.

HOME TRAINlN G.

What It Means to tho Son When He Il
Launched Upon tho World.
The youth who his launched upon the
world without the advantages Of good
home-training is placed at sad dis
advantage TO start with. He will often
give offense without intending 1t, and
cause embarrassment when he means to
please. And the laws Of etiquette are
like the laws Of a country-every one
Is supposed to know them, and Ia pun
ished II he does anything to break
them. For this reason 1t Is proper for
a man to pay attention to acquiring
the art OF etiquette and in one way 1t
is more requisite for him than 1t Is for
a woman, for man can never remain
passive In society, but has number
OF active duties to perform. Neither
can he pick up SO many hints upon de
meanor az woman can; he has not
the feminine gift OF seeing without ap-
pearing to look, OF covering mistake
almost before 1t is made. He has no
eye in the back OF his head, neither
does he appear capable of carrying on
a conversation while taking in every
thing that is going on around him.
Under these circumstances 1t ID plainly
necessary that man should study ell
quette; he cannot imblbe the manners
of society unconsciously. 30 his best

to do. Grace should not be consciously
