steps and ladders were to be climbed. This caused her to break her leg one day. The leg was put in splints, but Peggie could not keep still enough to have it knit properly, so when she was well this leg was little shorter than the others
 Peggie was very fond of rushing at the wastepaper basket and dragging out the contents. She would whine ana cry in very funny way when she could not get them out. She regarded with great suspicion any one in civilian dress coming on board the Maine, and parked at all who were not in uniform. She would turn a somersault if you held her head down a second.
 One day she came into the cabin with a chicken-bone sticking out of one side of her mouth and a pretty nasturtium blossom in the other side. She looked so cute that I wish I had the picture to show you. One ear stuck up and the other lay down, giving her very comi- cal expression. She knew just what she wanted to do. Laying the flower care fully down in one corner, she took the bone into another and proceeded to eat it. After the bone had been disposed of she took the flower into her mouth again and finally left it at the captains feet
 Once she was taken driving at Key West, and while the carriage was in motion she jumped out of the vehicle on one side and into it at the other, un- til the person she was with feared she would break all her legs. Afterward she thought the horses tails were meant especially for her to play with, so over the dashboard to bite the tails and down under the horses feet she went. But she was not hurt, and soon Sprang into the carriage again.

How Hohson Was Pleased.

Now that Lieutenant Richmond Pearson Hobson, the hero of the Merrimac, is no longer our guest, it may not, be ungra- cious to relate a little incident that oc cured during his stay here. It is proof of the loyalty of the Scotch for their own although the principal in this affair is truly American, having a son who was In the volunteer army throughout the war. Lieutenant HobSon was attending a re- ception given in his honor by a promi- nent physician of this city, and many of the fair women of the municipality were crowding around him, eager for a hand- shake or a passing word of conversation. The Scotch lady was standing by his side with friends, and they were carrying on quite a conversation with the nations hero. After satisfying herself that she had actually stood in the shadow of a famous man and had talked with him. one of them, with an attempt to be su- perfiuously complimentary, said to her friend, My, Mrs. H.. don't you wish you had a son like that?" .I don't know about that" quickly replied the one ap- pealed to. T have three sons and I think every one of them is every bit as good as our honored and brave lieuten- ant here All those within hearing were astounded at the temerity of the AmericaniZed Scotch mother but Hobson with characteristic gentlemanliness, bowed and remarked: That's right Mrs. H.. stand up for your own bairns l was glad to hear you say that.'' Be- fore parting he presented rose as token of his appreciation of the mother who was loyal to her sons.-Philadelph Inquirer

SURPLUS OF BRITISH WOMEN. One Thousand and Sixty Females to
 Every One Thousand Males.

It must be disquieting to those who consider marriage to be every woman s birthright to see how stealthily but surely her chances of realizing her des- tiny are diminishing.
 The census of 1871 disclosed the fact that the women in the United Kingdom outnumbered the males by no fewer than S93, ,195. In 1881 this deplorable dis parity in numbers had grown to 958,- 63S, and at the last census in 1891 the surplus females (not that under any conditions woman could be considered redundant) numbered 1,112,512.
 Think of this vast army of females, who for matrimonial purposes must be deemed too many. Arranged two abreast at intervals of a yard this fair column would carry the tale of it's grievances from London right to the border beyond Carlisle, and even there they would find no redress.
 The census figures prove that in Ire land a woman's chances of finding her mate are better than in any other part of the United Kingdom. For every 1000 males Ireland is blessed with 1929 fe- males disparity which need not make any Irish girl despair. England ranks next as a matrimonial market, as for every 1000 men there are only sixty-four females to spare. Scotland has 1072 fe- males TOT every luUU I1dleS, ana must De content to be summed by marrying girls.
 The islands adjacent to our shores are the least promising as matrimonial hunting grounds, for no fewer than 1126 females have to be apportioned among 1000 males. Throughout the United Kingdom there are approxi- mately 1860 females to attract every 1000 males.
 The problem of the sexes assumes startling proportions when we consider that the females in the United King dom alone, if placed in single file at intervals of little over six feet could whisper a secret entirely round the earth at the equator.
 The females in England would form a column twenty abreast, at intervals of a yard, long enough to reach from Lizard point to Berwick Tweed. Sim ilarly arranged, at intervals of few inches, more or less. than a yard. the fair army of Scotland, five abreast, could link the Grampians with John O. Groats. Ireland's equally fair army. four abreast, would stretch across the extreme length of their country, and the insular fair ones would form a col umn, two abreast, extending in a straight line from Charing Cross to Woking-I london Tit-BitS
