an over the country the newspapers
printed a joke purporting to be a con-

anu one OF his stan, which was In sub

gave orders for the flagship to move
northward. and received information
mat 1t was impossible, as there were
inree dispatch boats tied to the anchor
cnains. He gave orders to go south,
with the result that several others
were reported fastened to the ruddcr

the dispatch boat was the nevy's source
OF luxury. Alongside the New York
J saw the Somers N. Smith lowering
nags OF potatoes. sacks of provisions.
boxes of vegetables. bread. etc. into
the New York's small boat for the
ward room mess. These supplies had
peen brought from Key West by re-
quest. When the material was brought
aboard, chicken with its legs tied to-
gether bore an envelope addressed to
Gunner Morgan. This was little re-
memorance in exchange for some ex
cellent photographs taken by that Of
ficer.
Each ship that We boarded had a
number Of errands for us TO do in Key
West. SO we never returned empty,
handed. One officer would say:
Won't you bring my linen from Key
west? See, my white ducks look like
coal sieves." Another wished us TO in
quire for an express package; still an
other had craving for some delicacy
that the ship could not supply. The ca
terer OF the officers mess-one chosen
by ballot semi-monthly from among
their would very frequently
accept an offer from the dispatch boats
to purchase and transport fresh pro-
visions. The sailors also had wants
to be filled, such as cigarettes and
reading matter. On the whole. the
dispatch boats have proved themselves
to be very useful additions to the
blockading feet There is hardly dis

one prize to Key West. When left

bulging with letters and packages to
mail; and even when descending the
Jacobs ladder, another letter was
passed to me from gun-sponson by

AN oLp-oLoRY FACTORY.
r,.y. for Our ships Made In the New York
Navy Yard.


Navy Yard.
n, tho floor of the great hagroom in the
-. ynrk navy yard are drawn patterns
md designs from which the flags for the
aa,.v re- made says the New York Press.
The lines of these designs are painted on
,ba fioor or laid out by means of BRASS
headed nails, and II Is no easy mater 70
design a flag accurately, even Win the
hep of these lines.
Tbe largest American flag made by the
government is called No. ]. 1t measures
d x feet in length and 13. IL In breadth,
md Il rarely used. Probably the Detroit
md Minneapolis are the only ones OF
Uncle Sans ships that regularly use TINS
size .,,. 4. .n
.,derably smaller, is the one used by most
X me warships. In addition to this one
sar all the different sizes below II are
rsrried by each of the cruisers and war
,bns. The bunting which Uncle Sam
uses is tested severely before being used.
From each lot of bunting n small sample
II about foot square Is taken. and TINS,
after being STEPPED in fresh water for
fVenty-four hours, is then scrubbed with
strong soap and rinsed and dried. Then
4 Is put under sunlight for from eighteen
10 twenty hours, and II 1t shows no fading
II is accepted. This one navy yard uses
5000 yards of bunting annually, but FOR
The present year probably one-half more
Will be added to the average figure.
Not only are American flags made mere,
hut flags of all nations as well. for Uncle
Sans cruisers must have other national
flags besides our own.
The most difficult flag to make Is that
OF San Salvador. This flag requires all
the colors used in fiagmaking-namely,
red, white, blue. orange, yellow. green,
brown, black and canary yellow. Costa
Rlca has another difficult flag, using all
but the brown.

James Young's Hamlet.

That most mysterious of all of Shaks.
peares characters, Hamlet, was pro-
duced here last night by Mr.. James
Young and very capable company OF
players.
The demonstration of Mr.. Young s
ability to handle the character of the
gloomy Dane did not come as sur.
prise to those who saw him in David
Garrick several months ago. Garrick,
to be sure, bears no suggestion of Ham
let, but the part had in places the eie-
ment of gravity. which Mr.. Young
strongly depleted. In Hamlet Mr..
Young has gentle grandeur that loses
at times its first quality in some awful
flights, but ever settles back into the
mild, sad young philosopher
1t would impress US that Mr.. Young's
Hamlet is az artistic, studious, consci-
entious production, and entities the
young man to high rank as a trage-
dian.
The support all through is excellent.
Laertes, Ophelia and Horatio, in fact
all the parts, are sustained with mnch
force and intelligence.
