Shortly after o'clock on Monday
morning Lieutenant Crook of General
Skaters staff entered the city and all
the arms in the arsenal were turned
over to him. The work of removing
the mines which DISTRACTED navigation

progressing all night. At about z
o'clock General Toral, the Spanish
commander, sent his sword to General
Shafter as evidence Of his submission.
General Shafter, with his mounted
escort of 800 picked men of the Second
cavalry, then rode over our trenches to

GEMS OF THE SEA.
The Beautiful Butterfly Fish Arc ~
Gaudy as the Insect for Which
They Are Named.

OF all the beautiful marine creatures
that occasionally wander along the gulf
stream to strand on northern beaches
the butterfly fishes are the most gor-
geous. They are tiny fellows. under ~
inches long, but radiant and glowing as
gems. That is what they are-futter-
ing ocean jewels. They have deep
bodies, remarkably short tails and
long. beautifully-veined dorsal and anal
fms, says the New York Press.
The general body color is a pearly
gray, notably delicate and irdescent
A glistening jet-black band runs around
the head. through the eyes, and termi-
mates at the lower margins Of the gill
openings. Above the eyes this band is
bordered on each side by narrow pale
streak that looks luminous by contrast.
Another dark band, but more delicate
In color than the first, runs around the
body at the middle part of the Ash, like
belt.
Two shining dark blue spots. like the
eyes" In a peacock's tail, mark the
anterior part of the dorsal fin and the
tall. These spots are surrounded by
pure white rims, and the background
is dark velvety brown. The head Is
greenish yellow, and the fins are marked
with t1eeting tints of yellow, silver and
brown. They are butterfly fish, IN
deed.

DONE WITH A RIFLE.
The Head of an Indian shot Out with
One Hundred and Fifty
Two Bullets.

Adolph Toepperwein, San Antonio's s
marvellous young rife shot, lately per-
formed another of his astonishing
feats, reports the Philadelphia Record
With a .22-caliber rife he stood at a
distance of 20 feet from double thick
ness Of heavy paper, about three feet
long by two feet wide, and shot on it
the outlines of an Indians head. 1t
took exactly 152 shots 20 do the trick
1t was free-hand drawing, as the figure
was not traced on the paper before
hand. This made the feat especially
difficult, as "Tep" had to place every
shot with reference to where it's prede-
cessor had gone, and where all the fol-
lowing shots were to go. In other
words, he had to have every detail of
the drawing" planned out and con-
stantly In his minds eye while he was
shooting. One shot fired fraction of
an inch wild would have spoiled the
whole picture.
It is not clear whether or no this
marksman is a member OF Roosevelt's
regiment of rough riders. If he isn't
he ought to be.

Lucia Purdy, i'll Harper's Magazine,

unusual intelligence and strength of
character were confirmed. Several
who knew him we'll told me of his vir-
tues as The best of husbands and of
fathers, and assured me that his life
was in all respects a moderate, we'll
governed one. He cares, il Is said, but
little for the excitement of social life,
being always far more ready to sit
and talk over his beloved art with con-
genial friends than to be made the
hero of the hour at clube or cafe. His
dlstastc for over convivial and not too
sober admirers goes so far that he has
been constantly known to call for
water and wash his hands after being
forced to submit to the grasp of such
as are unpleasant to him.

SAILOR HATS TRYING.
The LOw-CrOwned, NarrOw-Brtmme m e d
Ones Worn This Year Arc
UnbecOminR.

The low-crowned, narrowbrimmed
straw sailor of the season is going to
rob the summer girl of much of her
beauty, says the New York Commercial
Advertiser. Several dozen women of
all degrees of good looks fitted sailor
hats on at one Of the big shops and
gazed disapprovingly in the mirror at
themselves. There were all sorts of
sailor hats Oh the :. bles and counters,
low-crowned, narrow -brimmed ones of
coarse straw, higher crowned, broader
brimmed ones of fine straw, and var
ious versions of each variety. The
saleswoman declared that they were
all this years model. The customers
murmured that only the low-crowned,
broad brimmed hats were new. Then
they continued fitting on and frown-
ing at themselves and smiling derisive-
ly at each other.
II never saw such a fright" said one
young woman, as she resumed her own
flowery hat after vainly searching for
a becoming sailor among the low
crowned, coarse affairs. II shall hunt
up my last years hat and wear that.
1t is pretty and makes me look well,
anyway"
"But these are considered very styl-
ish," said the saleswoman, placing q
little hat on her own head, where 1t
looked about the size Of postage
stamp. "They are made like boys
hats, and boys hats and shoes and col
lars are the models for the best styles
this season, you know"

THIEVES AT A WEDDING.
How Some Valuable Jewels were
Stolen at a Swell Function
In Paris.

That the high social function should
prove q valuable field for the expoita-
ton of the sneak thief is not an en-.
tirely new idea. Such operations have
been going on more or less since the
world first heard of the proverbial
wolves in sleeps clothing. Every once
in awhile there is a recrudescence OF
this sort of annoyance in large social
centers, and it behooves society people
to have a weather eye out for the
crooks. a recent letter from abroad
is authority for the story that sneak
thieves in evening dress have been
operating in the fashionable quarters
of Paris of late, to the evaporation of
the police. At the wedding of a noble
pair recently there was CONSERVATION
when the word was passed quietly
among few of the guests that a high
ly valuable cluster Of diamonds, the
gift of the bridegroom to his bride,
had been taken from under the very
nose of the detective set to watch the
presents. Orders were given to bar all
exits until search could be made. A
lackey reached side entrance just In
time to see tall man pass a woman in
evening dress and opera cloak through
the door. Her companion was in the
act of following her when the servant
threw himself on the door, catching
the fellow by the arm. The thief. for
such he was, made q frantic effort to
free himself and got away, leaving q
large piece OF his overcoat In the door.
The diamonds were not recovered.

SALUTING IN THE ARMY.
A Thing Which Volunteers Never
Learn How TO Do as the
Regular Do Ii.

One thing which the volunteers find
1t hard to do-a thing which perhaps
they will never do in anything like the
form In which the regulars do it's to
salute officers. Take q volunteer who
is bronzed and big like a regular, and
put him in a regulars clothes and send
him out on the street, and he would
certainly betray himself as a volunteer
at his first meeting with an officer.
The regular, walking on the street,
salutes every officer he meets by rails
ing the Strengthened fingers Of his
right hand to the brim of his hat, just
over the right eye. and keeping them
there until the officer has passed. The
volunteer cannot be made to hold his
hand there in any such way, says the
Boston Transcript.
If he salutes a strange officer of low
rank at all, he salutes him with the
quick dash which is the regular Off
GERS salute to the private. II the reg
ular soldier is seated when an officer
approaches in camp, on the street or
anywhere else, he rises, faces the Off
Ger, stands very erect, and makes this
salute. No one ever sees a volunteer
private do this. A regular cavalryman
trying to get his horse across the
bridge while an electric car was cross
ing 1t from the other direction. The
horse was plunging and leaping wildly,
and the soldier had to work hard to
control him. At this moment young
second lieutenant of Ohio volunteers
came along the footway. In the midst
regular managed 30 salute the pedes-
trian officer in proper form. The smile
of admiration and satisfaction on that
young officers face was worth going
long way to see.

RAISINS AS HORSE FEED.
A California Mans AnimAls Like
Them and Flourish ON Such
Provisions.

P. p. Brooks, living eight miles west
of Fresno, is using ralsins as horse feed.
and the result of his observations will
be interesting, as be Is an old horseman,
reports the Fresno (Cal.) Republican.
In an interview with republican re-
porter he said:
Barley Is worth $50 a ton, and rais-
ins from Sla to $50 1t is difficult to sell
good raisins for over $40 ton. Some
time ago | concluded to use raisins as
horse feed instead of grain. As an ex-
pertinent | bought an old horse and fed
the animal 12 pounds of raisins day.
The nag was worn out and poor. but in
a short time. he began to fatten and
grow sleek. The food seemed very
nourishing and the horse became plump
and full of life. sold the animal back
to the original owner for S3o-three
times what l gave for him. Twelve
pounds of raisins day is equal to 70
pounds of barley. At the present price
Of grain this would make the food
value Of raisins about 500 a ton, leaving
profit OF S42 a ton over the actual sell
ing price of SIS. The raisins also make
good cattle and hog food, but l have
not experimental much in that line.
Horses seem 10 relish the raisins, and
keep in good condition while being
worked. Several of my neighbors will
follow my example and use raisins for
stock feed. This Is a good way &c get
rid Of the surplus now in the hands OF
the farmers"
