Manners Outside the Navy.

The ordinary seaman's respect for

with his beloved vessel is decidedly
meager. When the president CT the

the admiral, commanding officer and all
of the officers Of the ship, in. full uni
form, the crew at quarters for inspec-

the band OH the quarterback, the ma
tional flag is displayed at the main, the
drummer gives Tour RIFLES the band
plays the national air and a salute of
81 guns is fired. The same ceremony
also takes place on his leaving.
On one occasion the president visited
one of the ships informally, dispensing
with the salute and ceremony, when
one of the men rather Indignantly ask
ed another who that lubber was on the

Plurals of Nouns Ending In 60"

In the formation of the plural of
nouns with this ending the general
rule is that es is added to the singular,
as in potatoes, cargoes, buffaloes, yet
the following words add only s: Grotto.
junto, canto, cento, quarto, portico,
octave, duodecimo, tyro, solo (all, by
the bye, foreign words), and also all
nouns ending in 10, as folio, folios; or,
in fact, whenever is Immediately pre-
ceded by vowel, as cameo, embryo,
etc. A notable popularity is to be OBJ
served with regard to nouns substantive
ending with the sound of O. If they be
words of more than one syllable, they
for the most part end simply in 0, but
if only of one syllable, they take an e
after the 0, thus, canto, potato, quarto,
hero, but doe, foe, roe, sloe, toe, woe,

But still quainter is it when the

Wonderful Pumping Engines.

The standard attained by the per-
formance of modern pumping engines is
pretty high, as was illustrated by an
incident which occurred not long ago
here in New York, where some large
pumping engines that had recently been
'set up and were working at rather high
speed and almost absolutely without
noise were inspected by an expert in
such matters who hailed from an inte-
rior city. He remarked, "Well, those
engines work very nicely now, but wait
until you get to pumping water at that
speed and then you will hear something
from them probably" "
His establishment may perhaps be i'm
agined when it was demonstrated to
him that. they were at that moment
pumping water and had been oontinu-
ously doing so for As hours. American

A Popular Librettist Couldn't Withhold 3
Joke on Prospective Bri >.
W. S. Gilbert does not retain all OF
his humor for use in his librettos.
In the early days of his success. when
Gilbert and Sullivan were considered
by managers as the "sure winners" in
the comic opera field, young woman
who was a member of one of the "Pina
fore'' companies wrote to Gilbert tell
ing him of her approaching marriage
with a young man of good position and
family. -
Gilbert congratulated the young wo-
man and expressed the hope that her fu-
ture might be prosperous and happy.
Only p little more than a month pass
ed, ard another letter from the same
girl renthed him, in which she stated
chat her engagement with the young
man had ben broken and that she had
accepted anC ger sutton.
He replied that he had every conf
dence in her Judgment and again ex-
pressed his hearty wishes for her well
fare.
Tt was almost two months after that
that Gilbert received third letter from
the same girl, who informed him that
young Lord = had proposed and that
she had accepted him after breaking
her engagement with No. 2.
Gilbert's humor could no longer
Withstand the temptation, and he wrote,

approaching marriage With Here he
placed an asterisk and in footnote
added:

CONTRASTS IN NAPLES.
Only a Step from Royal Magnificence to
Crowds of Half Naked Workers.

| 'ss.Es SToHdS O1 AAStI RahSu WOfhcrss
One of the strangest contrasts in Ma
pies is TO walk from the royal palace,
with its fine marble staircase. up tho
new Corse Re d'Italia and to climb in
to the steep streets around the Church
of San Soverino Sosio
These streets are the dwelling places
of the dyers, and one steps from regal
magnificence into crowd of seminaked
people, who are busily dipping great
hanks of cotton or wool into seething
Ualdrons. As elsewhere, the work is car
ried on in the street, and little streams
of water--red, yellow, brown and black
pour over the rough stones and gath
er in multieolored pools, while on low
benches against the walls women are
washing clothes, standing in the dirty,
soapy water that splashes over from
their tubs.
The passersby walk heedlessly through
the dye and soapsuds, while the chill
dren find pleasant occupation IN throw
ing mud of every variety OF color at
anybody who chances to be wearing
light colored garments 1t is veritable
feast of color from the merely spectacu-
lar point of view, but visit to these
streets leaves, bodily as we'll as a
mental impression.
Very often in the depths of these sor-
did alleys one comes across a forgotten
old palace, built when carriages were
unknown, its great court of honor
crowded with booths, it's vast halls fill
ed with heterogeneous collection of
men, women and children, fowls, goats,
sheep and occasionally donkey, all
living together in the happiest proxim-
ity. The massive old walls are hidden
beneath centuries of dirt; the wood
work has, for the most part, disappear
ed; the rooms that once knew the revels
of Angevin mobiles now shelter the hap
hazard existence of lazzaroni.-Lud-
