The ice cream festival at the new Bap-
tist church at Braintree branch was a
very pleasant affair, despite the unfavor-
able weather, which made II necessary to

present and was much appreciated. The
sum cleared was $50.

few DAYS as to the choice OF this town for
representative this fall. 1t is generally

How Fighting Bob Got His Title

If you want to make Evans angry adj
dress him as Fighting Bob" He will
answer to the name right away by knock
ing you down. Probably nothing in his
life has ever annoyed him so much as
that epithet, which some thoughtless
newspaper applied to him originally after
a certain little episode at Valparaiso,
where he INDICATED the quality Of Amer
lean manhood in striking way that has
been well remembered
This memorable incident, half humo-
rous and half tragic, has been garbled
to a considerable extent in the various
accounts of it printed. The facts, simply
stated, are that he was in command Of
the u. S. S. yorktown at Valparaiso at a
rather exciting period, and some Chilians
on shore, having an Unborn hatred for
Yankees anyway, took a notion to be'im-
pudent to the sailors of the Yorktown.
Captain Evans had occasion to- send a
boat ashore, and the Chilians would not
permit the men to land. Evans then sent
steam launch, with one-pounder gun
In the bow, and gave notice that If he
was interfered with furthar he would
make hell smell Of garlic" 1T is need
less to say that the trouble ended right
here.-New York Journal.

skill, my son, and you must work fast.
Have it ready the week before Christ
mas-and here is something to keep your
spirits up"-and the good man pressed
some gold pieces into the trembling hand
of Paoli
What joy it was, to Paoli's heart is he
lovingly turned page after page of the
great mass-and it was in Mozart's own
writing, too.
AS he scanned page after page he came
to the prma donna's solo. This was to
be the grandest part of the whole mass,
and Paoli followed rapidly, breathlessly,
note after note OF the music.
Suddenly he stopped short and jumped
TO his feet, with eyes aglow and nerves
atremble
II would not have arranged it so; q
B fiat here and a minor there"-the
words came rapidly, almost inarticulate
with the intensity of the inspiration
that came to him as he viewed the music
spread out on the table. Then suddenly
seating himself at his precious harmon
ium he commenced to play, softly, ten
derby, using the composers air. but his
own harmony, humming the words in
low, sweet tones. AT the solo he began
to sing aloud.
There he comes" said some one, as a
form was seen Fastening up the dimly
lighted aisle; but it was only, messen-
ger boy, who brought the news that the
organst had been stricken with serious
illness and could not come.
what shall we do, what shall we do?"
cried the priest, almost weeping in his
trouble. 1.-THE music all ready, Christmas
but day off, and no organist." and he
groaned in despair.
IF you will permit me, father, I will
play the organ" said a quiet voice at his
side, and looking up the priest beheld
Paoli.
Through the whole mass he played with
wonderful mastery, the organ responsive
to an almost human degree. The souls
of the singers, thrilled with wonder and
admiration, made the music more soul
inspiring than even Paoli had dreamed
it could be.
All was hustle and confusion in the
household of O'Rourke, the policeman,
Christmas morning.
Hurry un and dress the kids, Maggie"
said the head of the house as he struggled
with the refractory collar, Eve go to the
cathedral this morning to hear the new
organist.''
"The new organist, Mike? And sure
who may he be-"
Faith" responded the worthy
ORourke, as he admired as much as he
could see of himself in the little mirror,

IN FOREIGN LANDS
Dreyfus NAV Be Called

1t is reported from Paris that the sur
prise that Emile, lola had in store for
his accusers is nothing less than the call
ing Of eX-Captain Dreyfus to give testi-
mony at the novelist's trial which comes
loff at the assizes Of Versailles May 23d.
Of course the subpoena will have to be
submitted to the minister of the colonies,
who appears to have the right to say
whether it shall be served or not. There
are numerous presidents in French jul
risprudence where witnesses, although
convicts, have given testimony in the
assizes, but their testimony, which was
rendered without oath, was rated by the
presiding justice at his pleasure. L'Au
rora says that President Faure not only
knows the truth about Dreyfus, but has
openly stated that the ex-captain was in
nocent. The journal calls upon the pres
ident publicly to repeat his statement,

Descendant of Marhsal New

Nine. Gauthier de Persigny, who COM
mitted suicide the other day at Nice, was
the third daughter of the Due de Persig-
ny, ambassador to the Court of St.
James's in the early years of the second
empire. She was granddaughter of
Marshal Ney through her mother, nee de
la Moskowa. M. Gauthier, whom this
member of the Persigny family married,
belonged to an old Nicols family. Last
year he fought duel with the Comte de
Lacour, lieutenant in the Eighth Alpine
Chasseurs, who had ben paying his wife
attention. The count was wounded and
a suit for divorce was begun, ending in
M. Gauthiers favor. In the unwrltten
etiquette that follows duel of this ma
ture it is customary for the gentleman to
marry the divorced wife. Nine. Gauther
de Persigny had expected Comte de La
cour to follow this custom. This he did
not do; he was devoted to his profession,
and had no means of support if he re-
signed from the army. 1t was this ro-
mantle complication that led to her sui
eide.

a N ew Military Cap

The gold-laced cap with a down peak
which for some years has been worn by
the staff officers Of the British army will
be done away with at an early date. A
month ago a new cap very much resem-
bling the French or Austrian kept was
issued, eXperimentally, to the Duke Of
Connaught and the members of the Royal
Highness' staff at Aldershot. This did
not meet with approval, and during the
last few days another cap of the naval
or German fiat, large-topped type, made
OF blue cloth with. q band of scarle:
around the top, which fits closely to the
head, has been in use at Aldershot. The
dropping peak is edged with gold lace,
which indicates the rank of officer wear
ing it. There is also an embroidered ci-
pher, with crown in front. It is under
stood that this cap meets with general
approval, and that in all probability it
will eventually be adopted by the officers
of the general staff.

BISCUITS FOR THE NAVY

eff other provisions should run short,
our army and navy will not want for
crackers while they are fighting the
Spaniards, said one of the largest bis
cult manufacturers in New York I'VE
are working day and night to fill an order
of the United States government for 50,-
900 boxes of biscuits, to be delivered with
in six days at various military andnaval
stations along the Atlantic coast. This
is the largest order we have received
since last March, when, in two days, we
turned out $4,000 boxes, or million bis
cults for distribution among UncleSam's
bluejackets.
The biscuit contracted for by the
government for the use Of our sailor
men is the finest production Of its kind
made anywhere. 1t is composed Of the
best materials and baked to perfection,
as it forms staple part of Jacks food,
and the presence of deleterious matter
might prove disastrous to vessels crew.
The biscuit is commonly known,as pilot
bread, and when property made will keep
sweet and wholesome through year long
voyage in tropic seas. There are now
thirty or more bakeries in New York
making crackers and pilot bread. and 1t
is estimated that these concerns use up
annually half million barrels Of flour
for the purpose. One large combina-
ton Of cracker bakeries turns out as
many as 300 different sorts of biscuits.
IT has a capital Of s1O 100000 and bak-
ing capacity of 1000 barrels of flour
a day and employs 1900 people in various
capacities in different Establishments.
"The product is shipped not only to
Eastern and Southern States of this
country, but it goes in very'large quanti-
ties to the West Indies and South
America. and even raraway Africa

A Lost Russian Battleship

A decision has just been rendered al
Cronstadt by the Russian naval board of
inquiry, which had in charge the .uvesti-
cation into the loss of the Russian battle
ship Ganget which went down in the
Gulf of Finland last summer after few
shots fired for practice. The public is not
taken into the secrets of the deliberations
of the board, but what has been made
public is this-the pumps of the ship were
not in good condition, and hence were
useless after the vessel had struck the
supposed rock. Nevertheless, the entire
corps of officers of the lost ship have
been acquitted of all blame with the ex
ception Of the chief engineer, who for a
technical fault has been sentenced to
