Theodorus Delyannis, prime minister of
Greece, the statesman who has sent out to the
whole world the defiance that Greece accepts
full responsibility for all her acts,' is
descendant Of the old Venetian blood that in
fused its strength into the Helenes when
Venice was the mistress of the world. Theo-
dorus got his name from the Greek Giannis
(diminutive for John) and the Saracenic Deli,
though how the. family acquired the Turkish
prefix cannot be said. He is the eldest son
OF young branch of the family, and at an
early age displayed all those qualities of
which the Greek is justly proud. He was edu-

With all the great powers Of Europe snarl-
ing about the little island of Crete, England
may be expected to be a big dog, and she is
just that in the person of Vice Admiral Sir
John o. Hopkins, commander-in- chief of the
British Mediterranean squadron. Sir John is
one Of the best-known and one of the most
efficient officers of the British navy. He sue
ceeded Sir Michael Culme-Seymour in this
important post not long ago, and was in every
way capactated TO take the place of so eff
cient a sailor. Sir John is an old sea dog
who has seen no end Of service. He took
part in the Crimean war, and was present at
the attack Of Sebastopol and at other opera
tions in that For his eminent services
there he received the Crimean and the Turk
ish medals and the Sebastopol clasp. For
one year-1SS1 -1SS2-he was secretary to the

served his country in many important posi-
tions, notably as superintendent of the Sheer
ness dockyard, director Of the naval ordnance,
admiral superintendent of the Portsmouth
yard and lord commissioner Of the admiralty.
Americans wot of him as the commander of
the British naval movements in Hampton
Roads during the worlds fair. He is a griz-

with every trick Of naval strategy, and the

forging along through the reasonably
calm water just as if nothing had hap
pened or was going to happen. There
had been one day of rain and one night
and part of Il day of storm. Saturday
morning broke. and it was expected

morning the clouds looked lowering, as
they have a right to look near Ireland.
Wentworth, the cause OF all the worry,
| gave Kenyon very little assistance in the
| matter that troubled his mind. He was
in the habit, when the subject was re-
ferred to, of thrusting his hands into his
hair, or plunging them down into his
pockets, and breaking out into Ian
guage which was as deplorable as it was
expressive. The more Kenyon advised
| him to be calm, the less Wentworth fol-
| lowed his advice. AS n general thing,
he spent most of his time alone IN very
| gloomy state of mind. On one occasion
when the genial Fleming slapped him
on the shoulder, Wentworth, to his great
establishment, turned fercely round and
cried:
IF you do that again, sir, I'll knock
you down.
Fleming said afterwards that he was
completely fiabbergasted'' by this.
whatever that may mean. and he added
that the English in general were q queer
race.
1t is true that he gathered himself to-
gether at the time. and, having laughed
little over the remark. said to Went
worth:
Come and have drink: then you'll.
feel better"
This invitation Wentworth did not
even take the trouble to decline, but
thrust his hands in his pockets once
more, and turned his back on the popu-
lar New York politician
Wentworth summed up the whole
matter to John Kenyon when he said:
There is no use in our talking or
thinking any more about it. We can
simply do nothing. l shall take the
whole blame on my shoulders. lam re-
solved that you shall not suffer from my
indiscretion. Now, don't talk to me any
more about it. I want to forget the
wretched business, if possible" So,
thus it came about quite naturally that
John Kenyon, who was a good deal
troubled about the matter. took as his
conidante Edith Longworth, who also
betrayed the greatest interest in the
problem. Miss Longworth vas left all
the more alone because her cousin had
taken permanently to the smoking
room. Some one had introduced him
to the fascinating game of poker, and in

Mr.. William Longworth was now spend

The gentleman is modest and sincere.
Nevertheless. his speech was delivered
with the eloquence OF fervid earnest
ness. He is not an orator. and he is
wise enough to know it. But his
speech ought to pass into history with
the splendid poem which he quoted.
Oliver Wendell Holmes prevented the
destruction of the Constitution. Con-
gresham Fitzgerald secured the appro-
priation which will result in her per
Iuanent preservation.
1t is u pity that the Kearsarge could
not have been preserved. She was lost
by careless seamanship on reef in the
Atlantic ocean. The gallant cruiser
ought not to have been on duty. She
should have been kept in the Washing
ton navy yard forever. But our states.
men are shortsighted. The republic is
young. Our people have not become
accustomed to making sacred history
for the future. They make history for
the present, and fortunately it is in
tended to be patriotic history. and will
read we'll through al! generations; but
they are reckless of the nice little de-
tails which go to make beautiful the
history of nations.
But we have a relic of the Kearsarge
which will be preserved carefully for
all time. 1t is the oak rudder post of the
historic cruiser. In the museum at the
navy yard the rudder post stands. Inn
bedded in it is a conical shell which
came near destroying the ship. 1t was
fired from rifle Oh the confederate
cruiser Alabama. But it did not ex-
plode An explosion would have re-
suited in the sinking of the kearsarge,
and the escape of the Alabama. The
shell was found there after the cele-
brated engagement. A skillful gunner
risking his life, and of course riskinn
the safety of the vessel, sat astride
the rudder post and drilled a hole into
the shell until he came to the powder.
Then he poured in water and saturated
the explosive. After that, he drilled
off one end of the dangerous missile
and took out of it the explosive ma
terials. The rudder posi- was then
mended and strengthened with steel
bands. and the Kcarsarge sailed away
after other confederate privateers
Finally. the rudder post was taken out
and new one put in its place. The
old rudder post, with its shell inclosed
is at the navy yard; and it is all that
remains of the famous ship.
