narration of stories of his early life and
the publication Of his predicted good for
tune as told many years ago by a palm

part in local incident that has interest
ed a number of Omahans during the last

The incident is contained in a number
of letters that were written by Admiral
Dewey when ne was young man. stu
dent at the United States Naval Academy
at Annapolis Md. They were written to
a young Maryland woman, who then iiv-
ed at Frederick and who was a popular
belle at all the social amenities at the
Naval Academy in the late fifties. This
young woman was a very close friend of
Cadet Dewey and is now a resident of
Omaha She still has in her possession a
number of letters written TO her by Dew
ey IN his senior year at the Academy,
1858, and they show the hero of the day
to have been most interesting young
man, fond of dances and other enjoy
ments of cadet life, but above ALL having
a desire to succeed In his work.
Among the letters is a round-robin in
vttation to the senior dance AT the Acade-
my June l. 1855 which was forwarded to
the young Maryland woman after she
had sent a note Of regret for the occas-
ion TO Cadet Dewey. After receiving her
regrets he had the joint letter complied
and signed by the other members of the
senior class many of whom have also
figured prominently IN the navies of the
United States. In the superseription of
the letter Miss is addressed as
