the threatening weather. Fully
l25 people gathered at the club

young men here, and when supper
was announced they proved that they
know how to serve good repast. fol
everything necessary 10 please the
palate had been provided for includ-
ing ice cream. which the BOYS them
selves had made. One of the pleas
ant features of the evening was the

is hoped by many that it will not b,
the last.

Hired Webster for n Week.

Of course Webster was in demand
by those who could afford to pay for
his services. a sharp Nantucket
man is said to have got the better of
the great defender Of the Constitu-
ton in All amusing way, however.
lie had a small case which was to be
tried in Nantucket one week in June,
and he posted to Wcbstcr's Office in
great haste. 1t was contest with a
nclghbor over matter of considcra-
bic local interest, and his pride as a
lltlgant was at stake. lie told Web
Stcr the particulars, and asked what
he would charge to conduct the case.
"Why," said Webster, "you can't
afford to hire me. | should have to
stay down there the whole week, and
my % would be more than the whole
case is worth. I couldn't go down
there for less than $1,000. | could
try every case on the docket as well
as one and it wouldn't cost any more,
for one case wouldn't take all nv
time tor the entire week, anyway"
"All right, Mr.. Webster" quickly
responded the Nantuckcter. "IIerc's
your 81 900. You come down, and
III fix it so you can try every case"
Webster was so much amused over
this proposition that he kept his
word. lie spent the entire week in
Nantucket, and appeared on one side
or the other in every case that came
up for hearing. The shrowd Nan
tuckctcr hired Daniel out to all his
friends who were in litigation, and
received in return about 81 500, 20
that he got Wcbster's service for
nothing, and made a good profit to
boot.
If that man was alive in these DAYS
Of trusts and syndicatcs he would
probably he at the head of legal
trust, controlling the services of all
the big lawyers of the country.

The Navy Department to-day,

The Navy Department to-day
aside from giving orders to IL,
squadron, continued the work Of
adding to tho navy and purchasing
another ship at Norfolk as an aux
iliary craft and some small yachts
The news of the actual beginning oI
war was received with gravity at the
Department., and there were many
hpcculations as to tho destination oI
the Spanish squadron. One sugges
tion was that they would try to cut
off the fine battlcship Oregon, now
on its way from the Pacific coast
around to join Capt. SIMPSONS com,
mand. There is also some fear that
the Oregon may be taken at an un.
fair advantage, without knowledge
OF the existence Of war, by the Span.
ish torpedo destroyer Tcmmerirc
which is now lying at Buenos Ayrcs
Possibly, with view to avoiding q
conflict in the Straits of Magellan
where she would be at disadvant,
age, the Oregon has been ordered to
go aronnd Cape Horn.
The little Bancroft, now at Boston
has been placed under command OF
Capt. Clover, who will meet the
ship at Norfolk within few days
and take it to Key West.
In tho war department orders flew
to and fro relative to the conccntra-
ton OF troups iii the South, and Secre
tary Alger was several times in con-
sutation with the President, result
ing in the determination to call for
100000 volunteers as soon as Con-
Gress passes the necessary legisla-
tiOn.
A change in the composition of
the cabinet, lcntircly unexpected, COM
plctcd the list of important events of
the day.
AT about i:l5 o'clock this after
noon the President had brief con-
ference with the Attorney General,
Secretary Long and Assistant Sec
rctaries Day and Adcc. Telcgrams
were received, and others presumably
sent, but their purport was not dis
closed. At 5:l5 the President joined
Secretary Long in short walk.
For several days, and especially TO-
day, the Secretary of the Treasury
has received a large number of tclc-
grams from collectors of customs at
ports OH the Atlantic and Gulf coasts,
stating that ships were being laden
for Cuban ports. Large shipments
of mules were being made from
Southern ports, and beef and coal
from those further North. The
question rs to whether these vessels
should be permitted to sail was re-
ierrcd to Attorney General, and his
opinion was that pending the passage
OF the bill prohibiting all expectations
of articles of this character this GOV
crnment should not interfere.
