BEDS AT SEA.
Bunks Still the Common Thing, Bu'
Use for Bedsteads Increasing.

The common idea Of p bed at sea Is Of one
made t9 bunk, and that is in fact the sort
on all sorts of craft. A bunk takes up less
room on a vessel, where space ds of great
value, and the space can be further utilized
by placing one bunk above another.
common rule; there have long been on some
lines of travel on inland waters boats, some
or whose staterooms are provided with beds
on regular bedsteads, and the newest of the
great ocean passenger steamers now have each
a number Of rooms fitted up just as a sleep
ing room would be in a fine hotel ashore q
bedstead being, OF course, part Of the equip
ment
Until within very recent years 1t is probable
that no transatlantic steamer commander
had a bedstead in his room, and there are
but very few who have one now. The captain
sleeps usually uDon a couch. a sort Of ample
lounge, upon which his bed Is made, and
upon which he can take a nap at other times.
as opportunity offers. On the latest great
passenger steamers a handsome brass bed
stead has been placed In the captains room.
1t is doubtful, however, whether the captain
makes use of this at sea- in the crowded
waters of the North Atlantic, and in bad
weather, he is very likely to get but little
sleep, and to take what little he does get
with his clothes on.
1t is probable that the best provided for
man ahoat in respect to sleeping accommo-
dations is the American ship captain. On
many American deep-water sailing vessels of
large size the cabin is of ample dimensions
as it may easily be with the space at COM
mand, and, carrying few Or no passengers,
this space is utilized for the benefit of the
captain and officers. On such a ship the cap
tain's room would be a room of ample size,
and part of its equipment would be a reg
ular full-sized bedstead. The bedstead is OF
course, fixed in position, so that it will not
shift with the motion of the ship at sea. 1t
is placed on the side of the room toward the
stern of the ship, and with the head toward
the stern, so that the captain sleeps with his
feet toward the bow Of the ship.
Such a bed on a sailing ship is usually
made with four high corner posts, to sustain
a mosquito canopy, If one should be needed
in any of the various latitudes through which
the ship may pass on her long voyage. Under
the bed the space is filled in solid with lock-
ers, opening on each side like bureau draw
ers. The sideboards of this bed are made
rather deep; they afford a slight degree of
protection against rolling out, but not much
The bed is not in this respect built as hunks
ordinarily are; being wider. high sides are
less needed: and, If the ship heeled enough
to make sides necessary to keep a man in
bed, the captain wouldn't be there at all, but

THE NATIONAL HOLIDAY HONORED
BY AMERICANS AT LONDON
AND BERLIN. -
LETTER FROM HER MAJESTY.
TO THE HOTEL CECIL
PARTY.
PEOPLE OF TWO NATIONS FRIENDS
Delivered by Ambassador Hay
Banquet at Berlin.

LONDON, Nov. 25.-Over three hun
dred Americans and a few English
persons celebrated Thanksgiving day
by dinner at the Hotel Cecil tonight.
The party included John Hay, the
United States ambassador, and his
wife and daughter; Henry White sec
rotary of the United States embassy;
]. r. Garter, second secretary Of the
embassy; Lord Strathcona and Mount
Royal, of Canada: Archdeacon Sin
Clair, Louis Aston ChanIer and William
Fuich, United States minister to Uru-
quay. The menu, which was specially
designed for the occasion, was orna-
mented with American and British
flags, and over the seat of the chair
man was an enormous eagle. The list
of toasts was long. The health of
Queen Victoria was proposed by the
chairman, who read a letter, dated
Windsor castle, from Sir Arthur John
Bigge, private secretary to her majes-
ty, saying:
The queen desires me to beg that the Ameri-
can ambassador will be so good as to convey
to the members of the American society in
London the expression of her majesty's sin
cere thanks for the beautifully Illuminated
aCQreSS OIL CONGRATULATIONS Sne received from
that body. 1 have further to assure your
eXcellency how deeply the queen was touched
by the sentiments of sympathy with the en-
thusiasm OF her own subjects on the sixtieth
anniversary of her accession to the throne,
which was contained in this address from
citizens of the United States.
When the health of Ambassador Hay
was proposed, he responded with a
bright speech. He sketched the origin
of the day, which began, he said, "in
that pathetic thank Offering of our
forefathers when they were keeping
alive the spark of freedom which was
destined to kindle into such a beacon
blaze enlightening and admonishing
the world. Some of our peculiar insti-
tutions," continued Mr. Hay thank
heaven, we have lost. The worst pass
ed away in the tempest of the war it
caused, but this, the most unquestion-
ably peculiar of all, we can trust to
abide with US forever. This is one of
the few things we can do that offends
nobody, threatens no one, and COM
petes with no one. There can never
be too much gratitude in the world"
Mr.. Hay, closing his reply to the
toast of his health, said: 1.-THE great
body of the people of the two countries
are friends. We are the fortunate
heirs to English law and liberty, which
both nations respect"
responding to "Our Next Door Nigh
bors," said that Canada, while loyal to
the queen and to Great Britain, had
the fullest feeling of friendship for the
United States, and he was satisfied
that if either country should get into
difficulties the other would help its
neighbOr

health has not been of the very best
during the last few years. still the
buoyant spirit he had manifested of
late, and his happy way in spite of the
siXty-nine years back of him, disarmed
his relatives and friends of the thought
that death was already knocking at
the door
Welsh reached the corner shortly aft
er 6 o'clock. He met a few friends, and
exchanged greetings with them. Dur
ing this he made the statement that
his health was good and he felt in good
spirits Scarcely had he uttered the
words when he dropped to the ground.
His friends supposed that it was but
temporary ailment, and stepped over TO
assist him to his feet. 1t was then dis
covered that life was extinct.

moved to the home of his daughter,
Mrs. D. Holloran, GIT Sixth avenue
south.
Mr. Welsh was born at Kilkenny, Ire
land, March, 1929. He came to America
fifty years ago, and to Minneapolis in
May, 1865. He secured employment as
y common laborer, but through thrift
and industry saved his earnings, until
a few years ago he was considered
quite wealthy. Considerable of this
money he placed in institutions that
subsequently failed, so that at the time
of his death he was comparatively
poor. For the last nine years he has
made his home with his daughter, Mrs.
Holloran. Together with his daughter
he leaves two sons, William and James
Welsh.
For some years Mr.. Welsh had been
suffering from bronchitis. This had as
sumed an aggravating form and affect
ed his lungs. 1t is supposed that the
effects of the malady had been con-
veyed to the heart, resulting in his
sudden death.

Theme of the Thanksgiving Sermon
which Mckinley Heard.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-At the Metro

ton of the president, and said that in is

they have been, and people should thank
God that 1t is no worse after the experiences

the assertion that prosperity had returned,
referring to the large crops of wheat, cot

DWARFS IN FRANCE.
Inhabitants of the Department of
Limousin Are Smau in Stature

In Limoqsin there is a barren range Of low
hills, which lies along the dividing line be-
tween the departments of Dordogne, Cor
reze and Haute-Vienne, about halfway be-
tween Perigueux and Limoges, says Apple
toms Popular Science Monthly. The water
courses show the location Of these uplands
They extend over an area about seventy five
miles long and half as wide, where average
human misery is most profound. Dense ig-
norance prevails. There is more illiteracy
than in any other part of France. The con-
trast in stature, even with the low average
OF all the surrounding region, is clearly
marked by the dark tint. There are sporadic
bits Of equal diminutiveness elsewhere to the
south and west, but none is SO extended or
so extreme. Two-thirds of the men are
below feet inches in height in some of
the communes, and the women are three or
more inches shorter even than this. One
man in ten is below feet II inches in stat
ure. This is not due to race, for several
cial types are equally stunted in this way
within the same area. 1t is primarily due
to generations of subsection to a harsh eli
mate, to soil which is worthless for agri-
culture, to a steady diet of boiled chestnuts
and stagnant water, and to unsanitary
dwellings, in the deep, narrow and damp val
leys. Still further proof may be found to
show that these people are not stunted by
