Admiral Dewey then had success
sion of notable callers. Rear Admiral
Sampson, with Captain Chadwick, his
chief of staff, and Lieutenant Comman-
der Winslow, his flag lieutenant, came
on the Dolphin. When the dispatch
boat was a mile away it began firing an
admiral's salute and the Olympia re-
piled with rear admiral's salute of 13
guns. The Dolphin anchored near the
Olympia and Rear Admiral Sampson
and his staff went on board. They were
received by Admiral Dewey, Captain
Lamberton, Lieutenant Brumby and
the officer of the deck, the full marine
guard and band being paraded. The
officers went to the admirals cabin and
remained on board for more than an
hour. Admiral Philip, accompanied
by Commander Kelly, called later in
the day.

staff, visited the Olympia and looked
at her papers. Eleven of the crew of
375 men have typhoid fever. Some of
the cases are convalescent and all Of
them are of mild type. With this
exception the sailors and marines are

Major Hazley's Race For Life.

Major Haley will never tire II
telling how he ran a neck -and-neck
race with death over a railroad trestle
and came out by the skin of his
teeth.
The Major, an expert engineer, has
charge of the construction of the new
railroad bridge across Pearl River,
near Jackson, Miss.
The Major, of course, knew the train
schedule, knew how long it would
take him to cross the bridge. One
morning, being anxious to reach the
western shore of the river, he re-
solved to take risk. An express
train was almost due, but the Major
felt that he could clear the trestle be-
fore the engine came in sight. He
was in the middle of the trestle when
the express was seen rapidly ap-
preaching the bridge. At once the
Major realized his position. He waa
face to face with death. If he re-
manned on the bridge he would be
run down. If he jumped into the
river he would be killed by the fall.
Lis 4haJor lurHeu anu ran-fan
literally for his life. But in great
leaps the train gained upon him, so
that presently he could hear the
whirr of the wheels as the monster
bore down upon him.
He had cleared the bridge, was
only short distance from the edge
of the trestle, looked down, saw a
sand bar, darted off the track, leaped
headlong fifty feet and fell plump,
soft and easy, into bed of sand.
Then the onlookers, pale with
fright, saw the Major pick himself up
and walk away-a little shaken, but
uniniured
