very charming young lady read a very
charming ana somewhat lengthy address,
which confined a great deal OF tlowery Ian,

to reply. He is not an eloquent man at any
time, and he is extremely shy; but he had
written ont a graceful speech OF accept

and received the banner. ,
Ladies" he began. in a Fourth OF July
voice, Ladies, We VIII accept this flag. La
dies, We've will accept this flag" Here
his color iorSook him, lie had forgotten the
best OF his speech. One trembling hand
sought the pocket OF his blouse. The manu-
ScriUt was gone.

with a gulping kind Of gasp, Ladies, we
will accept this flag, and, and, and thanks

And after all, | dare say the impromptu
was quite as effective as the address he
had prepared, hut the captain doesn't like
to talk about Washington Post.

HOLIDAYS IN MANILA.
A, One Time There Were Over Forty
In Every Nenr-Picturesque

Manila loves holidays. At time
there were over forty in each year
The number has been sadly diminished
though there are still thirteen left.
Understand. Each pueblo has its saint.
ana on that saints day the inhabitants
give themselves over, as they do on
the general holidays of the church, to
music, fireworks, coek-fghting, pro
ceSSions, etc,
Almost all these professions took
place al night. and the effect was mos,
picturesque. There would be a line
Of marchers, men, ome and chill

of the street. everyone with Z lighted

the middle Of the road, would come
images OF the Saviour, the Virgin, and
the saints. borne on the shoulders O;

priests. and preceded by a band a

HIS UNDERSTANDING.
Tie Knew what u Receiver Was Just
~ Well as Anybody in the
Courtroom.

A few days ago a case was in one OF the
courts that Involved a receiver for a building
association. The plaintiff was a highly re-
spected German VINO knew what he wanted,
but IN some manner the attorney had not
taken the steps that his client desired.
When the plaintiff was on the stand his at.
torney examined him at length. Daring the
examination the old gentleman became e1,
cited and answered the questions in such a
way that the Judge was under the impression
that he didn't thoroughly understand the
questions and nsWer He declared that he
didn't want a receiver, that he didn't want
his attorney to take the step, and that all he
wanted was his money.
AT this point the judge suggested that the
tourt interpreter be sent for, that the Ger.
man might make himself more clearly under,
stood. But he declared that he understood
what he wanted, and that was his money,
and if he failed to get it he would kill him.
telf.
To ascertain il he knew what he wanted
the Judge said;
DO you know what a receiver is?'
Eyes, sir; | do, sill" said the honest Ger.
man, He vos der man yot gifts der monish
und | gifts nottincs,"
This convinced the judge that the plaintiff
knew quite well what he wanted and what
he was talking about. SO the interpreter
was dispensed with, for the time being, at
least.
II guess" said the Judge, in conclusion,
"he knows about as much about a receiver
as we do.'-Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.

SOLDIERS BUTTONS.
iheS Indicate Rank az Well as shout
der straps-some of the De-
vices on Them.

There is meaning in every button
displayed on the coats Of army and
navy men. An officers rank NAV be
determined by the device on The but.
ton as well as by the number he wears
The large buttons are seyen-eighth.
Of an inch in interior diameter, and the
small ones nine-siXteenths. They are
of yellow metal, fire gilt and bur
nished. The general officers and the
officers of the general staff wear a gilt
button, very convex, with the spread
eagle and stars and a plain border
For officers of the corps of engineer,
the button is different, being only
slightly convex, with a raised, bright
rim, | 1-13 inches wide. Its devices are
an eagle holding in his beak a scrol
with the word E~ssayons Let us tryl
a bastion with embrasures in the dis.
lance surrounded by water, and a ris
ing sun. These devices are of deaC
gold upon a bright field.
For officers Of the ordnance depart.
nent the buttons are gilt, convex, with
n plain border, and their device con.
sists of two crossed cannon and a
bombshell, with a circular scroll over
and across the cannon, containing the
words Ordinance Corps" Signal corps
officers have convex gilt buttons, witt
plain border and the device of tive
crossed signal flags, with a burnina
torch between them. For artillery, in.
fantry and cavalry the button is gilt
convex, with the device of a spread
eagle with a shield on lis breast which
contains the letter A, | or C. The
alds-de-camp may wear the button of
the general staff or the one of their
own regiment or corps, as they please.
The cavalry has a button with two
Sabers crossed, their edges upright;
the infantry, two rifles with bayonets
crossed, their barrels upward: the ar
tillery, two cannon crossed; the most
quartermaster sergeant, a key and
lulll pen crossed; the hospital corps,
a large cross; the engineer corps, n
turreted castle; the signal corps, two
signal flags, crossed with a burning
torch; the ordnance, a shell in flames
and the commissary sergeant, a cres-
cent.
The navy button is just as important,
nut not so varied as the army but
ton. 1t is gilt, conAx and of tbre,
sizes in exterior diameter. The large
SIZE is seven-eighths of an inch. tie
Medium seven-tenths of an inch and
the small size nine-sixteenths of an
inch. Each size bears the same de-
vice, that OF a large eagle holding an
anchor and surrounded by 10 stars in
honor of the 10 states.-N. Y. Sun.

The advancing confederates had moth,

as they came up. They captured 200
wagons, all the ambulances, two bat
%teries, the headquarters baggage, all
the spare ammunition and several
thousand horses and mules. In add.
tion they captured over 1000 pris-
oners, and the number of muskets Sc
cured was over 1000. Most ofthis good
luck was brought about by the eff
