Pluck Of u Man-o'.Nyar Lad.

Pluck Of u Man-o'.War Lad.
Not long after tho United States
cruiser Atlanta went into commission
an apprentice boy who had been
dubbed by his companions the man.
o'-war equivalent of natural born
fool put the whole pack of them into
tho shade by sudden exhibition OF
nerve. A guns crew, including several
of the boys, and this slow-witted boy
in particular, were engaged in breaking
out one of the after magazines. Two
of the men were down in the magazine
and fastened cans of powder to the hoist
hook, and the rest of the gang were at
the head of the magazine hatch hand.
ling the ammunition as it came up.
The Atlanta wasn't fitted with electric
lights at that time, and the gunner's
mate in charge of the job swung a
closed lantern in his hand at the head
of the hatch. He was swinging il
somewhat carelessly when the lantern
struck against one of the sides of the
hatch, and the lamp, already loosened,
fell from the lantern down the hatch
way. 1t fell squarely on the top of a
can Of powder-a twenty-five pound
can. The men down in the magazine
had gone way forward to get another
can of powder, and they weren't on
hand to pick the lamp off the powder
can and extinguished it. The heavy
headed apprentice boy was at the top
of tho hatch. though, and he was the
only one of the gang who wasn't para
lyzed with fear. While all of the
others stood waiting for the ship to go
into the air, he slid down the hoist
chain like cat descending from tree.
He grabbed the lamp, the wick of
which, still ablaze, was heating the
iron can, and blew 1t out. Then he
clutched the handle of the powder
can with one hand, took firm hold
on the hoist cham with the other, and
yelled:
"Shoot mo up out O. this, you fell
lows above there, quick!'
The lad with the can of powder in
his hand was at the top of the hatch
in no time. He ran for the poop as
soon as he made the spar deck, and
chucked the can, the lid of which was
hot from the wick of the lantern lamp,
over the side into the water. The lad
certainly saved his ship from being
blown up. The skipper didn't pun
ish the boy for wasting Government
ammunition, as may be taken for
granted. Instead, he commended the
lad so highly in letter to the depart.
ment that the boy received special
letter of praise from the Secretary OF
the Navy.

FEW RESULTfS-If the war should
end at once its echoes will be heard for
a long time One result is the necessity
of the establishment Of ii coaling station
and dockyard at the Hawaiian islands.
Rough and preliminary estimates have
already been prepared in the navy de-
partment, hut the details of the estab-
lishment will be left to future investi-
cation. which will probably be made by
a civil engineer detailed from the but
reau Of yards and docks. The chief of
that bureau. Civil Engineer NJ. r. Endi-
colt, believes that an adequate dock
yard and coaling station should be es-
tablished. and 1t is estimated that the
cost of such q plan would be more than
81 500 900. The expense of delivering
material enhances the first cost. 1t is
proposed to erect coaling sheds and ap-
paratus for handling fuel and to build
a drydock capable of accommodating
the largest battleships. Another result
will be the increase of dock yard facili-
ties on the Atlantic coast. Public men
as well as naval officers feel certain con-
-rcss will hereafter deal much more
literally with the navy. The war has
shown the value and necessity Of a
strong and highly efficient navy, and it
Is not believed the lesson will go un-
needed. While the army may not meet
with recognition. the future Of the navy
is rc cgartled as assured. and in the course
of the next few years the United States
will probably take high rank among the
great naval powers probably outstrip-
ioIl hn 1a 70 ra-
port concerning that country's policy OF
reducing the naval expenditures is cor
rect. In that case only Great Britain
and France would outrank the United
States on the seas.

The fellows in the trees seldom fired
at soldiers who were close to them.
To do so would have made their de
lection easier, so they shrewdly chose
spots from 200 to 800 yards from the
main road. Three hundred yards was
the favorits distance, but they were
indifferent mnrksmen. Another proof
of their cunning was that az often AS
possible they shot when volley firing
was going on. Thus the report OF
their weapons could not easily be
singled out from the others. Some,
however, were three or four miles be
hind the American firing line, aud
they could not employ this device.
Some fastened leaves and bark to their
clothing, for better concealment. A
few were captured in American uni.

Surgeons and litter bearers, passing
as they did constantly between the
front and dressing stations in the rear
were repeatedly fired on from trees.
Many more would have been wounded
than were but for poor craftsmanship.
One man connected with the surgical
department Of the army was shot al
several times while passing particu-
lar spot near the "bloody bend" at
the ford of San Juan River. Finally
he got tired. Taking the red cross
from his arm as a sign of temporary
resignation from that branch of the
service, he borroweda a Krag-Jorgensen
from a soldier as sign of enlistment
as private. Then he dived into the
underbrush near where the bullets
had crossed the road.
The ex-Red Cross man made his
way carefully along the ground. He

pleasant consequences for him; so he
exercised every precautlon. Finally
his gaze was arrested by movement
in the branch of a tree. His expert
ence had taught him that breeze
always stirs the outer leaves of tree
first. The inner twigs move later.
Yet here was shaking of branch
near the trunk, while the outer leaves
were quiet. Close watch showed,
too, that the branch, instead of sway.
ing from side to side, moved up and
stayed there. Soon second branch
was pressed down and kept there.
Then it was clear just what was going
on.
The Krag-Jorgensen was aimed in
careful fashion. Its report was fol.
lowed by the crash of heavy body
through the tree and to the ground.
There was no call for the marksman
to attend to any professional duties
there. He hurried back to the
"bloody bend" gave back the rifle to
its owner, pinned the red cross to his
left sleeve again and went on dressing
wounds.

And woolly lambs I'm awkward play
Down the green hillside ambliny stray.
Along the blue horlzon.rim
The lights and shadows sink or swim,
And penciled family on the skies
A ghostly half-moon's crescent lies.

A rythmic madness in their song;
And dusk and dawn along the lane
Echoes the cow-bells' rude refrain.

Saved by His Suspcnders.

Few men have faced death in more
awful form than f. +. Pope, of Nc
Lean, H., who has just reached
Baldas, Alaska, from trip up tho
Low River. In company with party
of United States soldiers Pope at
temple to run the rapids of the river
on raft. For some miles the stream
passes between cliffs 1900 feet high
and runs like a mill race.
In one of the rips the raft ovUr-
turned and Pope and his companions
were thrown into the icy water. An
eddy carried Pope to little shelf in
the rocky cliff upon which he clamb-
cred. The ledge was only about ono
foot wide and five feet long. There,
for two days, he crouched, thrsshing
his arms and kicking his legs to keep
from freezing.
On the morning OF the third day he
noticed clump of bushes q few feet
above him. Knotting his suspenders
into a rope he managed to climb to it.
Then slowly, using bushes, his i'm
provised rope and every crevice his
hands or feet could find, he crawled
to the top. The next day he reached
Baldes and found the soldiers, whom
he supposed to be dead. safe. They
had been carried further down to q
beach.

With loud roar the bean released

lost his balance from the force of the

confined him to his bed for day or
so, and Mr.. Craven has a couple Of
scratches on his forehead, where the

The blackbirds whistle all day long,
A rhythmic gladness In their song;
And night and morning down the lane
Drifts by the COW bells rude refrain.
The flicker dips on golden wings,
And far across the meadow swings;
The swallow skins In lines OF grace
Like to the curves the painters trace.
Above, below, and everywhere
A sense OF living thrills the air;
Springs message through the silence sent,
With earth and wood and sky Is blent.

THE COST OF, ,FIGHTING-It Is not
yet possible to calculate with precision
the costs of the war for the liberation
of Cuba, but some interesting figures
are being mace at the treasury, based
upon the data which are accessible. Good
judges believe that nearly $500, 900, 900
will be absorbed in extraordinary eX-
penditures before matters growing out
of the war are settled, even If the pend
ing negotiations with the Spanish gov
crnment result in prompt cessation
of hostilitics. The visible expenses up
to the present time have hardly reached
for believing that this is only Il fraction
of the expenditure which will be re-
uliired before the volunteer army is
disbanded and army and navy are re-
stord to Il peace footing. In the first
place. many contracts which have been
partially or fully executed by the con-
tractors have not yet been settled by
the treasury. Large disbursements
would be required in payment for these
contracts, If all expenses on account Of
the war establishment were to cease to-
morrow. Without an exact data on the
subject, the guess might be haZarded
that s5O,OOO,O0O would be required for the
settlement of these contracts The more
important item of continued expense,
however, will be the maintainancc of the
army until peace and order can be re-
stored in Cuba and the Philippines. The
force now in the field or available for
service is about a quarter of million
men. This is not so large a force that
nearly all of it may not be required for
some time to come in carrying out the
purposes for which the United States
entered upon the war and the incidental
objects which have grown out of the
conquest of Porto Rico and Manila.
