CALL re QUARTERS

There is one call to quarters on boaru
shin more imperative than the assem-
blv. but its notes are high and rapid
like a danger cry.
IT means: Ito the guns! Cast loose
a,1S nrovide,, and is sounded without
warming day or night. No muster Is
awaited then; every mann flies TO MS
station and the guns are cleared away
and loaded without waiting for an or
der, for the calls mean that the eneunJ
is at hand.
Short bugle calls them follow in ac-
ton which relate to the handling OF the
guns, such as SILENCE" Commence
firing" Cease firing" and Secure.
After the guns are secured and every
thing is made snug and tidy, the mem
stand quietly at their stations until
they are dismissed by the call.
The call to General quarters is OF
ten sounded ON a. man-of-war IN the
dead of night for a practice Then
officers and men spring from their
hunks and hanrnocks; the men rush
with their hammocks, half dashed, to
the nettings, then hasten to their guns,
cast them loose, lead, and fire q. blank
charge (powder only) and adj this can
usually be done in less than ten min
utes.
Another cali which must be promptly
obeyed is that to Man and arm the
boats"
When this is sounded boats crews
supply their boats with provisions, Wa
ter, ammunition, and rifles, and the
larger boats with Calling guns and
howitzers, and prepare to make a land
ing on a hostile coast, or to attack and
take possession of an enelny's ship.
Each boat, too, in a man-of-war has
its own bugte call, which. when sound
ed, calls her crew to man that boat
alone. for ordinary purposes of traffic.

Plans of the Gold standard contin-

CHICAGO. July The announce
ment that the eastern gold standard
leaders, William c. Whitney and 9TH
ers, would arrive here tomorrow has
put some heart into the gold standard
men who are here. The rumor OF a
withdrawal of the gold standard men
from the convention if they are defeat
ed is still current but it cannot be
definitely placed in the so far arranged
plan of the gold standard people. The
plan arranged is, at ielst. calculated
TO make things lively, even if it has
not the greater effect of obtaining
converts. II will be similar to the
plan adopted by the New York Demo-
Gratis during the days preceding the
convention of 1892 when in the same
halls the orators foretold the destruc-
ton of the Democracy if President
Cleveland was renoninated- The plan
is to have Senator Hill, Mr.. Whitney,
eX-Mayor Grant, John r. Fellows,
Senator Smith. of New Jersey; ex-GOv-
ernOr Russell, of Massachusetts and
other we'll known orators, discuss the
situation with not only the leaders of
the gold standard movement from
other states, but with the leaders of
the silver movement. If these discus
siOns, like the Hill and Cleveland dis
cussions Of 1892, are TO be made public
the result can hardly be foretold. for
the silver element is of an excitable
character. A conference of the gold
standard men is called for o'clock
tomorrow night a the Auditorium, and
it is expected that a policy will be
mapped Out at that time.

CHICAGO, July 2.-Some silver men
manifest disposition to resent the an
nouncement of the coming of the gold
advocates who are not delegates to the
convention in Chicago with the avow-
ed intention of influencing the pro-
ceed.ngs. Senator-elect Money, of Mis-
sisslppi, said. 1T is an unheard of
proceeding for men like Whitney and
Eccles. who have no credentials to the
national convention, to attend ii with
a view of influencing the action of the
delegates on a question OF principle.
To come here as those men do to
change -he views Of delegates who are
instructed on a line of policy is rather
a piece of arrogance or perfidy just as
you choose to regard it. 1 say to them,
either one of two constructions is to
be put upon their conduct; they either
propose to buy the men outright, or
they want otherwise to influence the
delegates to break faith with their con-
stituents. Either policy will be re-
scented. / predict that the gold advo-

CHICAGO, July IF" said SEN
ator Tillman, the gold people attempt
to swing to any man, or if any man at
tempts to secure their support, it will
be found that this support is Verlt-
able shaft Of Nemesis, and it will prove
the undoing of any man who does it..
Mr.. Tillman seemed somewhat inter
ested ia Mr. Whitney's movements,
speaking of him as the great moral
persuader,'' but presuming he would
find when it was too late that ms
mission would be useless. The South
Carolinian said that no compromise
was to be thought Of for minute.
He confessed that he was utterly at
sea as to who the nominee would BE-
saving that it was the first convention
that he had ever attended where the
question of principle attracted more at
tention than the question of candl-
dates.

pronosed silver Caucus.

CHICAGO, July notwithstanding
the denial by some leaders of the sill
yer forces that there will be a general
caucus of the silver forces, there is no
doubt that the propriety of holding one
has been secretly discussed IT those
favoring such course have their way,

gates will be invited, will be held next
Monday.
The proposition was sprung by the
advocates of Bland who claim that tne
fair and seemly thing for the silver
men TO do is to get together in caucus
and agree upon a candidate who shall
be the choice of all the silver men,
when they go into convention. This

WEST POINT AND IT'S TRADITIONS,

Now in part of the old traditions
pertaining to West Point must always
be included the hutton-the big brass
bell button used in trimming the ca
diets short gray coats.
Where the young man of the world
sends a rose or a bonoon. the West
Point cadet sends a button. It repre-
sents all his capital the enc bit Of
wealth at his disposal. For he lives in
a land where there is nothing TO be
purchased, and, where he is allowed
no money to purchase with. Sometimes
he adds a chevron from his arm or a
brass buckle from his belt, but these
demand a larger outlay, and the chew
rons pTesuppose certain honors not
failing TO every man in class. For
all these reasons nothing since West
Point began has ever outshone the
bell button as a token of regard, an
evidence Of affection. and a pledge of

ELECTRIC LIGHTS TAKEN FROM A
CHURCH.

The authorities Of the Church OF
Notre Dame have recently discarded
electricity as lighting system for the
vast e1ifice. The change waS~bfought
on by a decision of the insurance COM
panies who were unwilling TO continue
the risk which they claimed to exist
with the electric system as it stood.
The electric lights around the grand
altar. which are used for the illumiri-
alton on solemn occasions, have BEEN
retained. but the electric power will no
longer be generated on the premises,
and the light will be furnished by a.
connection with the wires of the Royal
Electric company. This will do away
with a complicated system of wires,
and the motors that had been placed
in the basement of the church have
been sold.-Montreal Witness.
