Farragut was aboard the flagship Hart
ford and in his memorandum for COM
manding officers, which accompanied
the general order for passing the bat
teries, he stated particularly that spe-
cial attention must be given the steam
ers lying at Port Hudson. In other
words, he ordered that these vessels
be shelled, with the hope of setting the
cotton on fire and destroying the boats.
For some time the naval forces of
the union side had been endeavoring to
pass Port Hudson to open communica-
tion with the north" writes Mr.. Nc
Daniel to the Sunday Tribune. "The
confederates had made an equally de-
termined stand against it, and to as
sist them had many strong batteries
upon the river bank to counteract every
movement of the northern fleet. The
confederate forces were under the
command of Gen. Gardener, while Col
Steadman commanded the Alabama
regiment of artillery. The batteries
on the river bank were numbered from
one to nine, from right to left.
ION the night of March IA an effort
was made by Farragut's fleet to run
the blockade, which was partially sue
cessful. The success was only after a
terrific artillery engagement and the
loss to the union navy by fire and ex-
plosion of the steamer Mississippi.
''It was from the burning steamer,
the Mississippi, that Lieut.. Dewey es-
capped in the darkness and smoke only
to be taken by the artillerymen Of our
side-the same Dewey who now is adj
miral of the United States navy. Capt.
Melancthon Smith, his officers, with the
exception of Dewey, and many others
escaped in three boats tN the Richmond,
. which was farther up the river.
"Dewey was not long on our hands.
He felt that he was much needed with
his fleet, and he reached it, but he alone
can tell how he slipped away and re-
joined Capt. Smith on the Richmond.
But this much is certain. Lieut.. Dewey
did not save as much as a button belong
ing to himself from the Mississippi.
Everything was destroyed, save the
clothing in which he escaped from the
vessel. However, he was Capt, Smiths
executive officer, and one of the ships
crew told me later that to Dewey be
longed the credit of saving, and turn.
ing over to his captain, one boat signal
book and one naval telegraphic diction-
ary belonging to the Mississippi.
"Dewey took his capture with ad'
mirable coolness, and was set down by
all who met him as every inch gentle
man. AS a prisoner he recognized the
courtesies shown him by his captors,
and neglected none in return himself.
While he had little to say, his regret at
his capture seemed to be mingled with
some amusement He certainly be-
trayed little concern"

''No, 1 go for gin 'thout any water;

burly driver cracked his whip.
TASTES amt all alike" said the man
at his side, a slender, well-made per-
sonage, who had just given the driver
pull at his brandy-bottle, flask all
covered with pure-looking straw,
worked in various devices.

With some difficulty the other
climbed over the wheels and touched
the ground. He stopped over the boy,
shook him, and presently said:

AUTOMATIC DRUMMER.
1t Is Made of Papier-Mnche and Is
just az Good
Live Man.

''Have you heard of the new auto
matte drummer" said Louisville trav-
cling man, as be joined the group in
frontof one OF the hotels the other night.
"No? Well, tt's a great scheme. You
see, the trusts have made brains abso-
lutely useless in the business. and when
a merchant Aas to buy at one place or
go without, an idiot can take his order
Just as well as a man of superior intelli-
gence like myself. So, to cut down eX-
penses, some genius has gotten up this
automaton. 1t is made of papier-mache
and represents drummer sitting on
sample trunk. The whole thing is
about eight inches high and is boxed up
and sent to the retail merchants by eX-
press. When it arrives the business man
sets it on his desk, touches a spring,
which, releases a photographic cyl
inder inside the trunk, and the
drummer begins to talk. Good
day, sir he says; the following
are our list prices on so and so,
and with that the machine reels off the
latest quotations of whatever trust il
happens to represent. At the other end
of the trunk is a hole connecting with
receiving cylinder, and the merchant
speaks his order into it. Thank you,
says the manikin, when he gets
through; 4 will now tell you two comic
stories and sing you selection from
the latest opera If the merchant
doesn't care for that part of it all he has
to do is to turn a switch. Then he re-
turns the automaton to its box and eX-
presses it back to the house c. o. d.
There the order record is taken out, a
fresh one put in and the machine sent
to another customer. It's wonderful
device, and its advantages over live

MADE 1T EASY FOR HILDA.
An ObIiging Chicago Man Who Had
Things Fixed So the Hired Girl
Need Not Worry.

Rosenthal keeps drug store out Cot
tage Grove avenue way. Like the rest
OF mankind he has his troubles, and a
few weeks ago they took the form of the
servant girl dilemma. The light of the
kitchen left in the dark of the moon and
the druggist was fain to fill her place
with another. He has had experience
of the employment ugency and is wise.
He sought the newspaper and clipped
out a situation wanted ad., which he
thought would fill the bill, and he went
over to Sedgwick street to see the pros
pective successor to the light of the
kitchen. She was a descendant of the
hardy Norsemen and looked as hardy
as any of them. She had large bumps
on the backs of her hands where other
people wear knuckles, and when she
moved her arms things that looked like
hams stood out in her sleeves just above
the elbows. But she knew her bus
ness. She didn't let Mr.. Rosenthal get
the start of her with any questions
As soon as she learned he had called in
answer to the ad. she began the cross
examination.
How many children have you?" she
asked in a painful way. Her English
was badly broken in spots, as though it
had fallen from a great height. Mr..
Rosenthal was forced to confess that
he was the happy father of six.
This rather put damper on things
at the start. Hilda's Morse brow cloud
ed and she lost the air of insouciance
which Mr.. Rosenthal was pleased to
note as soon as he entered the room.
Have you a second girl?' she asked,
shortly.
Mr., Rosenthal gladly admitted that
the family had such an adjunct.
''Do you send out the washing?"
asked Hilda, imperiously.
The druggist told about that feature
of his domestic arrangements. But he
could see that Hilda did not approve
of him and he grew reckless.
81 suppose you have "a big Sunday
dinner?" said Hilda.
Yes, that's one of the best things
we do" said Mr.. Rosenthal. You see,
we order an eight-course dinner from Il
caterer every Sunday. and he sends it
up in wagon with the walters to serve
it. and then we always want the lady
who is living with us to sit at the head
of the table on Sunday, so | don't think
the Sunday dinner would bother you
much"
IIilda looked at him in surprise "A mo-
ment. Then n great light seemed to
break in on her
"Oh, you think you're smart, don't
yoa?" she said.
And then the incident was considered
