Two old Enemies Meet.

Two old sea serpents, who had not met
since the war, and then only once. and that
in battle, ran across each other at the dock
of the Yarmouth Line, in Boston, the other
day and shook hands for the first time, for
the greetings they exchanged at their first
meeting were the usual visiting cards of
the war, powder and shot, says the Boston
Journal
Henry A. Phelon has been for many years
inspector of customs here, with home in
West Springfield, but in his youth he fol-
lowed the sea, and during the war was
commander of the Monticello which was
at one time one. of the olockading fleet at
Wilmington, consisting of from eight to
ten vessels. 1t was there that he en-
countered, in the dead of the night, the
Tallahassee, commanded by J. Taylor
Wood of Halifax. Capt. Phelon challeng-
ed her, but met no respone, and fearing
that perhaps she was one of the federal
ships, but did not quite understand the
signals, he challenged her again, and then
fired, receiving like salute in return.
All was utter darkness, and a masked
battery on land belonging to the confed-
eracy took hand in the game, and also
began firing, making no distinction be-
tween friend and foe, but luckily harm
ing no one. The opposing vessels ex-
changed several broadsides without any
apparent injury to either. During all this
time the Monticello sent rockets to the
blockading feet, the outpost of which ii
formed, to inform them of danger. The
fun lasted for some time, but the ITALIA
hasse was a fast vessel and got away from
the Monticello, just as the flagship San
Diego de Cuba, under command of Capt.
o. S. Gibson, put in an appearance to in
quire into the disturbance.
And said Commander Phelon, when
talking to a Journal man, would you be-
lieve it, the Tallahassee made bee line
for the blockading fleet and went through
it like shot, though the whole fleet had
been warned by my rockets for an hour
and was firing at the Tallahassee. 1t was
a most daring act, and was glad to shake
hands with the man who dared so much
even though more than thirty years had
elapsed since our first meeting, when he
gave me the slip He was glad to see me-
too, and the greeting he gave me was warm
and cordial"

A Cincinnati gentleman related to an
Enquirer reporter that one night the late
William H. Vanderbilt told him how the
old commodore had ostracised him, both
for the reason that he did not think him
possessed of any business tact and that he
had married against his wishes. Mr.. Van
derbilt said that the commodore told him
he could live on a farm that he owned on
Staten Island, and that that was all he
would do toward his support Some time
after that, when their circumstances were
unusually poor and they were having a
decided struggle for a living, the son went
into his fathers office. During the con-
versation that ensued the old gentleman
inquired of the son how his farm was do
ing The latter replied that the crop was
not good, and the farm seemed to need fer

BILE" "Well I can't get it, because have
no money!" said the son. "Wel I will
give you load-only one," and he wrote
out an order upon his stableman for the
one load. The next day the commodore
went to his place and was surprised to see
the entire collection had disappeared.
where has that gomez" he asked of his
stable hand. William H. took il" But
he only had an order for one load" That's
all he took" why what did he have?'
"a hatboat" William H. upon getting the
order had secured the assistance of one
of the fiatboats used a great deal by Sta
ten Islanders, and had had it taken up
back of the old mans place, and all of the
refuse was loaded on to it. This seemed
to open the old mans eyes, for day or
two after that he paid the first visit he
had in months to his sons residence, and
soon after that his son was ordered to the
city, where he ever afterward lived.

Tr,umnb Of Diplomacy.

On the question of babies, in the alb
stract, almost every man is a seer. But
when it comes to considering them in the
concrete, for the purpose of distinguish
ing between specimens put upon exhibit
ton for prizes, man shows himself to be
a laundering dolt; at least, In the opinion
of the parents OF all non-prize winners.
1t may be confidently asserted, without
fear of contradiction, that dlplomatlsts
who would enter upon a consideration o:
the Venezuelan boundary dispute, or the
Boring sea controversy, or the Turkish
question, with confidence in their own
powers, would decline emphatically and
positively to act as judges at baby
show. Their consideration of and finding
in International questions might involve
the country in war; their decisions as be-
tween the beauties and merits of babies.
publicly announced, would almost inevita-
bly, result in a war in which the mothers
of the defeated cherubs would look dag
gers at the judges that would pierce them
through, and would scorch them with their
whitening sarcasm.
While the baby show is hedged about
with so many dangers. which men have
come to know and shun, it is pleasure TO
chronicle the fact that certain citizens Of
Tarpon Springs, in the state of Florida,
have pulled off" baby show with such
consummate diplomacy that everybody is
happy, including the mothers of the I'M
successful entries. who hug their darlings
in the mistaken confidence that they are
the sweetest and "beautifullest' things
in the world, and would have won
prizes hands down If they had been bit
heavier, or taller, or had few more or
a few less teeth. For, be it known, the
shrewd judges of the Tarpon Springs baby
show declined absolutely to set themselves
up as judges of beauty and sweetness, but
applied the yardstick, the steelyards and
simple arithmetic to all specimens submit
ted. The cherubs were judged merely
for points, and when the points were cal
culated, with mathematical accuracy,
there was no going behind the returns,
and no room for charging unfairness on
the part of the judges. An extract from
the prize list will illustrate the method.
Here are a few of the prize winners:
Heaviest baby under three months
Mrs Deckie's.
Heaviest baby under year-Mrs. Per-
RVS.
Tallest child under years-Horace Cas-
taign.
Baby that cried the most-Mrs. Robin
sons.
Baby that cried the least-Mrs. Pierce's.
Youngest baby with a tooth-Mrs. Nor
toms.
Oldest child with fewest teeth-Mrs. AL
derman's.
Best pair-Mrs. Buchanan's.
1t appears that there was no competition
in the last named class, hence it was safe
to give the entries first prize and charac-
terize them as best" which includes a
great many things. SO far as is known.
the Tarpon Springs rules for baby exhi-
billions are not copyrighted. They will
prove a boon to suffering bachelordom,
which is always called upon to furnish
Judges at such shows.

A Dream DisneIIed.

The two sweet things were standing on
a corner waiting for car when they saw
a boy coming up the avenue leading a
four-footed object that was blanketed and
swathed out of sight, says the Detroit
Free Press. A small crowd was follow
ing the blanketed object.
ITS one of those perfectly lovely race
horses. Just see how gracefully 1t walks,

But the poem and dream began series
of contortions just then that gave the
boy all he could do to keep his feet, ana

trying to converse with him.

what Would satisfy the south .

A writer of a communication, published
in the New York Post, entitled "a Griev-
ance of the South" says among other
things: IF sound money organizations
would address themselves to methods by
which the defects of the national banking
system could be remedied and thereby re-
lieve the real grievance from which the
south and southwest suffer- they would
soon find themselves free from any bur
den of responsibility for the education of
the people in financial science"
The foregoing is suggestion that the
sound money organizations will act upon
If they are wise. 1t is a suggestion also
that the republicans cannot afford to
ignore. We have said number of times
that we do not think the southern people
are particularly DESTROYS of deprecated
currency. They are not asking that sill
yer be made the standard of value. The
majority voted that way at the Novem-
Der election because they said there was
no hope of such a reform in the currency
as would give them the relief they
wanted.
And what is that relief? It is that more
of the currency of the country be kept
in circulation in their respective sections.
Now when they want money they have to
get it from city banks or their factors,
who get 1t from New York. They are com
PEELED to pay very high rate of interest
for it. In various ways the penalties for
accepting more than the legal rate are
avoided. 1t often happens that the farm
er and the storekeeper cannot get money
at any rate of interest. National banks
will not accept real estate security, and
that. very often. is the only kind they
have.
What is needed? Such a reform Of the
banking system that there will be banks
Of issue all through the farming sections
Of the south. Such banks would provide
currency that would stay in the vicin-
! ity of the bank which issued it; and Il
would be just as good as the national
banking currency is now If it were based
upon sound and stable securities, such as
state or municipal bonds.
The republican party may think the
thing for 1t to do in order to retain con-
troll Of the government is to adopt a tariff
system in harmony with its high protec-
tive doctrines, but IL it acts upon that
view IL will discover It's mistake. What
the people want is banking system that
will keep the currency distributed
throughout the country. Instead OF per-
hitting 1t to accumulate in New York.

The Gear Of Russia has four separate
services or horses and carriages, name
ly, the Russian, French, English and gala
sets. Each set comprises at least fifty
horses. The Russian set accompanies the
emperor wherever he goes, and at Catch
ina it is used, together with the English
set. The gala and French horses and car
riages are housed at st. Petersburg, in the
winter palace stables. The emperor's gala
turnout consists of fifty Hanoverian horses.
These horses are perfectly white, with
blue eyes, and anything more magnificent
in the way of trappings than their har-
