DeweY,s Defeat Years Ago.

The devotion of Commodore Dewey
to Miss Virginia Lowery, the handsome
daughter of Archibald Lowery, one of
the most prominent and wealthy of the
exclusive residential set7' in Washing
ton, is we'll known here. Miss Lowery
was beautiful in grande dame fashion
and woman of definite views as to
what would make up her happiness.
When very young, she became engaged
to dashing, impecunious secretary of
the Spanish legation, Count Jack Bru-
netti.
Her father refused to sanction the
affair, but declining all other offers,
even that of the present hero of the
hour, Miss Lowery kept during 20 years
her plighted troth. Throo seasons ago,
however, with the consent of her IA
ther, she became the wife of Duke
d'Arcos, her devoted and loyal squire
who not only had inherited a title and
estates, but represented his country as
minister to Mexico.
They say The commodore resented bit
terly his defeat by a foreign nation
and it is probable sent hot shots with
added vim, recalling the horrid day
when Jack Tar Cupid set Spain flag
above the stars and stripes on the trim
craft Of his heart desire. " Washing

SHORT NEWS STORIES.
A Little Patriots Prayer = Sherman
Treated to Whisky - Any One
Would Do For Bishop.

A little boy in the east end has takenf
a great interest in the war question.
His mother frequently cautions himF
against showing cruel spirit, ut his
father, who is something OF a b, Tiger
ent himself, says nothing. The other
day-it was Sunday-the youngster wal
extremely warlize, boasting what h&
would do to the Spaniards, and Topping
off the heads of imaginary dons at 4

"Now, frankie, you have showp
yourself very naughty boy. Such tal4

into your bedroom and ask God to pQf
all naughty thoughts out of your head.
So frankie went into the bedroom
and hastily shut the door behind HIM.
It didn't latch, however, and this is the
prayer which his father says he heard
through the narrow opening:

Mr.. Frank R. Stock ton, in his serial,
"The Buccaneers of Our Coast, - in St.
Nicholas, says:
About this time one of the most ia.
nous of sea robbers was harassing the
Atlantic coast of North America, and
from New England to the West Indies he
was known as the great pirate BLACK
beard. " This man, whose real name was
Teach, was terrible fellow in appear
ance as we'll as acts He wore a long.
heavy black beard, which it was his
fancy to separate into tails each one
tied with colored ribbon, and often
tucked behind his ears. Some of the
writers of thab day declared that the
sight CT this beard would create more
terror in any port of the American sea-
board than would the sudden appear
ance of fiery comet. Across his brawny
breast he carried sort of sling, in
which hung not less than three pairs of
pistols in leather holsters, and these,
in addition to his cutlass and knife or
two in his belt, made him most for
midable looking fellow. In the early
part of the eighteenth century Black
beard made his headquarters in one of
the inlets on the North Carolina coast,
and there he ruled as,absolute king, for
the settlers in the vicinity seemed to
be as anxious to oblige him as the cap-
tains of the merchantmen were anxious
TO keep out of his way.

A Six-year-old Patriot,

Edward Maginnis 6 years old and
curly headed, presented himself with a
convincing air of seriousness at the
army recruiting station, 50 West Madi-
son street, to enlist, when Captain Bo-
mus appeared at his desk. He preferred
tho cavalry service beause he could ride
and have a saber as we'll as gun to
shoot Spaniards.
Captain Bonus is big officer with
a kindly smile, and has little ones of
his own, SO when tho sergeant tried to
throw cold water on the young patriot S
plan of enlistiDg his superior took a
hand.
"Where do you live, NY little MANI"
asked the captain.

near the Second regiment armory, and
l want to be sure enough soldier, ~
was the prompt answer.
"How do you spell your name?"
queried the old cavalryman.
'That DON'T make any difference.
When you want me, send for me-" re-
piled the child, while the six foot ex-
artillery sergeant standing beside him
waiting to apply for a chance to get in
to the service again forgot his lessons
i'll discipline and went off into explosive
laughter. Captain Bonus took the lit
tie fellows name and address, patted
him on the head and told him to como
around for physical examination later
when Captain Birmingham, the sur
geon, was presant.--Chicago News.

a Prottv Plant.

Forgetmenot is easily cultivated and
is one of the prettiest plants for Win
dow garden. 1t is half aquatic and will
thrive in vases of water as we'll as in
pots of earth. All that is needed is to
obtain a few cuttings, roofing them eli
ther in damp moss or in water, then
filling a vase or hanging basket with
the young plants, which they will
quickly fill with roots and profusely
cover with Towering shoots and branch
lets, and in shady window are charm
ing objects. When the plants begin to
show signs of fading, fresh cuttings
atnay be started, or the old plants may
be pulled to pieces, and the branches
already covered with roots formed into
new plants by inserting them into q
fresh vase or basket.

Baseball Signals,

Perhaps few people, even fans, ;"
know that fielders have code of signals
like that used by ships that pass in the
night If it were not for this, innumer-
able accidents would occur. Two men
running at full speed in opposite direc.
tions, with their eyes riveted on the
ball, are apt to injure each other most
seriously. Indeed there are instances of
fatal injuries resulting from felders
running into each other. Tom Burns
nearly lost his life this way several
years ago. When two men run for the
same ball, whether in the in or out
field, the ona who is the nearer to it Or
has the better chance of catching it,
yells out GIVE got it." The other an
swers "All right, go in, " Or some other
equivalent phrase. He must not stand
mute, for this would disGoncert the first
man by causing him to think that pos
sibly the second man had not heard his
call. The second should rather call out
several times to answer the first that he
was heard and that there has been no
change of mind on his part in regard to
the one who is to do the catching. Il
these simple rules are followed, no acci-
dents can result. Every player knows
them and should feel III duty bound to
use them. New York Commercial Ad-

Colonel Ayres was released through the

Limited Vanity.

Many stories are told of Major Gen
eral o. O. Howard, dealing principally
with his strong religious and temper
ance principles. There is one not hith-
erto in print which shows the estimate
placed upon himself by this hero of Bull
Run, Antietam, fredericksburg, Gettys-
burg and dozen other battles, who is
as well an idol of the religious people
of the country.
1t was a great religious gathering.
General Howard had been rendered a
tremendous ovation. The thousands
there had cheered him again and again.
and his praises were on every lip.
General Howard was sitting on the
platform. He sat silent and meditative
for minute. Then he turned tothe han
at his side and said:
"Do you know those people seem to
think l am very great man."
"And you are, general, &" was the re-
ply. The general took to musing again.
"No," he said finally, speaking slow
ly and deliberately. "I'ln great man,

Beans and Peas.

Every family should eat beans and
peas because of all articles they afford
the most nutriment for the least money
One bushel of white beans, it has been
estimated, will feed more laboring men
than eight bushels of potatoes. A pound
OF cheap meat, say at 10 cents, and a
pound of split peas, say cents, will
give fuller dinner to family than a
dollar expended for beefsteak and white
bread. A single quart of beans, half

THE HOUSEHOLD.
How to Make Bread and Zwieback-A
Pretty Plant Fer a Window Gar
den-Holder For whisk Broom.

That there is a much better grade of
bread made and eaten by the majority
OF people nowadays than prevailed some
years ago is fact that we must all ad-
nit. AS there are reasons for all of the
great and small facts of life, it follows
that there must be one for this, and it
is readily found in the improved quail
ity of the flour and quicker yeast than
our grandmothers were always able to
obtain
There are few points in breadmak-
ing that many cooks do not appreciate.
In cold weather the -four should be
warmed and everything connected with
the bread should be almost at blood
heat. While the old fashioned salt or
milk rising unquestionably makes the
sweetest and most relishable bread,
many women who might do so refrain
from making it ON account of the length
of time it takes to raise it. Compressed
yeast, if strictly fresh, will raise in
half of the time. Salt rising, if made
with potatoes, keeps fresh for long
time; quite long enough, in fact, for
any such eatable to be kept on hand
Bread should not be kept over four or
five days in warm or moderate weather
IT begins to deteriorate and soon devel-
ops fo-m of bacteria that is by no
means wholesome. After four days, if
there is any bread in the box, it should
be sliced and put into the oven and con-
verted into zwieback For this purpose
very hot oven is required. Let the
slices remain until they are a light
brown, not a yellow shade, but distinct
ly Drowned, then put them away in pa
per bags or pasteboard boxes. They are
delicious in coffee and form most ex-
cellent basis for dainty dishes of vari-
GUS sorts. For eggs on toast, cream
toast, soups or puddings, salt rising
bread made into zwieback is invaluable.
AS an instantaneous relish, for example,
when one comes in heated and hungry
and needs a cup of something warm
with a cracker or other accompaniment,
it is unsurpassed. A dish of panada
with this ingredient as a substitute for
crackers is most delicious luncheon if
one is hungry when about to retire.
Yeast bread is also good and bakers
and other bread may be utilized to great
advantage. Economy is the prime con-
sideration in the house and in nothing
is it more important than in the utiliz-
ing of breadstuffs. New York Ledger.
