THE DIXIE COMES Home
Great Crowds Greet the Mary
land Naval Militia.
RELICS FROM GUANTANAMO
The Gallant Auxiliary Cruiser Is Sa-
Iuted by All Craft on Her Passage
Up the Chesapenke-Intense En-
thusiasm in Baltimore Harbor.
Welcome From the Mayor.

Baltimore, Sept 12-With the Maryland
State flag floating from her foremast, the
homeward- bound pennant flying from her
mainmast and "Old Glory swinging from
the main halyards the auxiliary cruiser
Dixie arrived in Baltimore harbor shortly
after o'clock yesterday afternoon
Lining the spardeck were the men of
the Maryland naval militia. back from
their campaign in the West Indies. A
striking picture was made as the Dixie
moved majestically up the harbor. A
pearl-gray war tint covered the ship and
the formidable armament glistenei under
the sunlight, while rows of sturdy young
Marylanders, bronzed by the tropical sun,
stood with eager eyes watching the first
view OF home
AS the vessel came into sight whistles
footed and all sorts of water craft dartcd
from the sides of the harbor for the place
OF anchorage. From Wagners Point came
q salute and the Dixie sent back a re-
sponse. Below Fort McHenry the tug
Germanic met the Dixie and escorted her
up TO the anchorage. Passing Thomp-
sons Sea Girt House MIR. George Thomp-
son put into action a one-gun battery and
the Dixie replied with a siX-pounder. The
fireboat Cataract, the police boat Lannan
and a number of tugs sound d their whis-
ties. People packed on schoDners and
barges sent up cheers of welcome and
the Dixie dropped anchor in Canton Hol-
low, opposite No ! elevator, amid a pam
demonium of noises. Fort McHenry walls
and Federal Hill were crowded with peo-
pie and these sent shouts of welcome
across the harbor to the gallant ship,
which has became endeared to every
Marylander. The Canton piers were also
occupied by enthusiastic crows.
1t was not only in the harbor OF Balti-
more that the Dixie was given a warm
greeting. Capt. James e Griggs was
the pilot and the trip up rne bay was a
triumphal procession, as greetings were
exchanged with every craft that was
passed. English tramp steamers gave
hearty salutes and the tug Chicago was
met below Annapolis and made things
lively with her siren whistle. The knowl-
edge that she was coming up the bay
had been spread. and vessels kept a
sharp lookout for the appearance of the
ship that received the surrender of Ponce
and planted the American flag in Porto
Rico-an event which Commander Davis
has described as "a distinctly forward
step In our manifest destiny of cfvili-
ing expansion" 1t was this same flag
which was flying yesterday from the hal
yards of the mainmast of the Dixie. This
flag, although recently obtained by the
Dixie. has already a historic career and
the boys never tire of telling where it
has been. 1t is the flag which was pre-
scented to the ship by Lord Baltimore So
ciety of the Children of the American
Revolution.
The Dixie left Annapolis at noon yes
terday and reached her anchorage in
Canton Hollow about p. m. She arrived
al Annapolis Saturday from Hampton
Roads. Commander c. II. Davis had

LEE WARNED AMERICANS.
If Any Remained I'm Cuba 1t Wa,
Their Own Fault

Jacksonville, Fla, Sept. 12-Gen Lee
was informed yesterday of the statement
of British Consul General Jerome, at Ha-
vana, that over 100 American families re-
manned in Havana after Lee left last
April.
We'll, l don't know as that is very
surprising" said the general Il have
no way of verifying his report / know
that j had officers appointed in different
parts of the city to notify all Americans
naturalized or native born, of the fact
that they should leave. and also that
American vessels would be there to take
them off. / know that many went on the
vessels and then ashore again, seeming
ly hard to decide whether to go or re-
main. The vessels were in the harbor
some time and ] postponed my departure
several days, so that no American family
would be left behind which desired to
leave Cuba.
Naturally, I had a thousand and one
other matters to think over then, but |
tried to give every American family that
knew of timely warning, and l think 1t
was because they finally determined to
remain and brave it out. Many had
nothing saved up. and everything they
had was in their houses. In such cases
they might have preferred to remain
there"

Millionaire Saved From Drowning

Atlantic City, N. j., Sept. 12.-Moncure
Robinson, well-known Baltimore man.
the son of Mrs. John Robinson, a million
aire and prominent in society, was saved
from tragic fate yesterday through the
watchfulness of Life Guard Wilson. Rob-
inson, who is a good swimmer, made uT
his mind to swim around the end OF
Young's Pier. The task, however, proved
greater than his physical endurance. He
was far away from there and out OF
reach of assistance of any other bathers
when his powers began to fail. Wilson
went to his assistance and saved him.

VANITY FAIR.


 It is the fashion at some noted European tables to place on the menu opposite each dish the name of the cook who prepared it. In these great private establishments are several cooks, and by this plan each one is assured that his work shall receive praise if it be of exceptional merit The system inspires and encourages effort, and appeals to the amour propre with which these gifted beings are so largely endowed. It is not probable that this fashion wiN ever secure a foothold in this country. With us, even in the larger households, single cook is considered sufficient strain upon human endurance. Outspoken praise of this functionary is carefully avoided It is not wise for the appreciative amateur who dimes out to commend audibly any particu- lar dish that may appeal to his gastrono- mic instincts, unless he be inspired by maleyolent purpose. His praise will only cause consternation to his host or hostess. for one or the other knows that behind the commendation stalks the specter of request for higher pay from the cook
 There are so many men. who wear the wrong tie with the right collar and the right collar with the wrong coat that it may be worth while to repeat the rules laid down by those who set the fashions for mems dress.

FOR EVENING WEAR.

There is a curious revival this season in some of the very smartest evening gowns of the long straight draperies of net gauge, chiffon or crepe de chine, which cover the back of the skirts only, and which were known some years ago as waterfall backs" This mode is pretty one, and in its modernized form is sure of a certain measure of success.
 The always-successful combination of daffodil yellow with heliotrope is seen to great advantage in an evening gown the skirt of which is made in yellow brocade, lined and ruched inside the hem with helo- trope silk. The bodice is cut square, and covered with draperies of daffodil-yellow criffon, exquisitely embroidered with pearls both black and white, tiny diamonds, and a light tracery of fine gold thread. Round the shoulders there is fichu of very fine lace, caught up on one side with bunch of mauve lilac, but arranged so that the long ends, after being drawn through a narrow folded waistband of mauve mirror cloth Before beginning operations take care that the bath is perfectly dry.

HOME DRESSMAKING.
HOW THE WHOLE FAMILY CAN DRESS
 WE'LL AT SMALL COST.

No Need of Looking Shabby Even Though
 Times Are Hard-Easy to Make old Gowns
 and Suits Look Like New When One Knows Hows
 It is astonishing how much can be made from seemingly useless garments by the woman who knows how. The old faded gown that is out of style can be readily dyed with Diamond Dyes to a fashionable color and then made over so that it will look almost like new. Suits for the boys can be made from old ones discarded by the father, and bath in Diamond Dyes will make them look like new. Dresses and cloaks for the little girls can be made with but little trouble and scarcely any expense, from cast-off garments of the older folks, and when the color is changed with Diamond Dyes, the made overs will look as though they were fresh from the dressmaker.
 Diamond Dyes are made especially for home use, the plain directions on each package make it impossible for even the most inexperienced to have poor luck with these dyes. They color anything, from rib bons, feathers and scarfs to heavy coats and gowns, and make perfectly non-fading colors, even handsomer than those made by the professional dyer.

While the PopuIist Statesman Tells Why He
 Marries at Sixty-Six Years of Age.
 Ignatius Donnelly thus tells why he is to marry, in letter to the editor of the Chi cago Tribune:
 that I am about to marry a lady, Miss Marion Olive Hanson, who has acted as my typewriter. I answer, Yes.
 About three years ago she began to work for me in the office of the newspaper of which I am publisher and editor She subsequently entered my household and as- sisted me for a year in my editorial and literary work. I found her handsome, gen. tle amable, high toned, honorable, intelli- gent and of the highest moral character. She was born in Norway twenty-one years ago, of family once very wealthy, but reduced by the good nature of it's head, through indorsng for friends, to poverty, which drove the children and grandchil- dren to America, where they have had for years a hard struggle with adverse fate.
 "The young lady's poverty was to me not disqualification. It rather endeared her to me. And I have always felt more regard for those women who had to sup port themselves than for those who were dandled in the idle lap of luxury.
 Furthermore, while proud of my Irish blood, I regard the great Scandinavian race as the purest representative of the great. original Aryan stock, to which all the people of Europe belong. They are the mother race of the fair-haired and blue-eyed inhabitants of the world, by whatever local name they may be called
 q am very proud of the fact that after I had passed middle life a young lady of prominent goodness and many accomplish ments could see enough in me to induce her to link her destiny with mine. This is my answer to your inquiries.''
