DAMAGE IS ABOUT $500.
Ferry Boat New York TO Blame for DAMAGE
10 the Dolphin.

Washington, Aug. 3.-The dispatch
boat Dolphin put in at Woods Hole,
yesterday, and forwarded to the navy
department a report of the recent col
lision with the ferry boat New York
in New York harbor. 1t was based on
the findings of a board convened on
board the Dolphin Immediately after
the accident. The department gave
out the following summary of the re-
port:
After carefully considering all the
evidence, the board is of the opinion
that the collision was due to an in
efficient lookout on the part of the pilot
of ferry boat New York and to his
vacillating course of action after sig
mailing the Dolphin: that all proper
means were adopted by the Dolphin
to avoid collision and that no one on
board of that vessel is in any way
culpable.
The damage to the Dolphin is slight,
part of the stem being broken about
in line with the spar deck and bent to
port. First frame on both sides bent
and broken similarly to stem and ad-
jacent plating torn and bent out Of
shape. Injury extends from spar deck
to a depth of about three feet below it.
No apparent injury below the water
line. Forecastle rail was carried away
on both sides as far aft as the bill
boards: jackstaff and some awning
were carried away.
Board estimates that repairs can be
completed in three weeks, cost about
$1,000. and the vessel will go to the
Boston navy yard to have the repairs
made

People inquire very often about the
old spring under the Nash publishing
house. The spring is one that bubbles
through the rocks and is in a little de-
preston left in the underpinning of
the building. At one time dipper
was there, so that one could drink If he
chose. but this has been removed,
though the water, cool and refreshing,
is still there, and the dogs often help
themselves to it. Situated, as 1T is, be-
side the railroad track in the station,
it is not in a most desirable place for
drinking purposes.

WE'LL HAVE ENOUGH GOLD.
Director Roberts Says Australia will Put Out

New York, Aug. 3.-Drector of the
Mint Roberts visited the local assay
office. today. He estimated the gold out
put of Australia for the present year at
slO.W000O in excess of that for 1895. Hs
said:
Australia will doubtless have trade
obligations to settle with England Since
the prospects point to continuance Of
the balance of trade between this coun-
try and Europe being in our favor. IL is
my opinion that England will go right
along sending us consignments of Aus
tralian gold direct. We shall have all the
gold we need. Our position is that of a
creditor. but if other countries are willing
to make it worth our while we may make
other terms"

An idea of the great number of moose

account of his trip that Editor F. w.

Col. Harrington called the Journals az
ienton to the articles and the colonel
says he can vouch for anything that Mr..
Sanborn says as he has known the man
to be truthful speaker and writer for
years.
Mr. Sanborn's trip was through the
Mus"uacook lake region and it occupied
81 days. In that time Mr.. Sanborn saw:
Seventeen bull moose, ~ COW moose and
three calf moose, four fawns, one white
deer and 307 bucks and does, three fami-
lies of beavers, two foxes between 40 and
80 broods of shelldrakes, canvas backs

There are reasons-excellent ones
for the belief that the continue
ton of Military rule in any former
possession of Spain after the ex-
change of copies of the ratified
treaty of peace will be violation of
the Constitutional authority of the
President. AS long as there is a
state of war the Presidents authori-
ty is supreme, but as soon as there
is peace, the authority lies in Con-
gress. AS Congress has not author
lied the continuance of either Of the
several military governments, it
must be taken for granted that Mr..

in peace to exercise authority that is
only rightfully his in time of war,
or to call an extra session of Con

Button CHATTER.

One woman owns a handsome set of
large turquoise buttons set in antique
gold, oblong shape. These were repro
auctions of Etrusean work and were
worn to fasten blue alpaca bodice over
side vest of choice lace. Though this
was the only trimming on the dress it
was such that no one could see without
being struck by it.
The oldest buttons in existence are
those which were discovered at Mycene
by Schliemann and those found in the
tomb of Childerie /. Louis XIV. pos
sessed the costliest ones ever made
Iwenty-four of them were sent to him
by Montarsy, each containing a diamond
valued at S2I COG, and he had several
other sets besides almost as valuable.
For several years now the button has
been east aside and hooks and eyes as
dress-fasteners have reigned. But this
season manufacturers are turning out
buttons of all designs by the thousands.
Insignificant as buttons are. without
them the present perfection in dress
would never have come about and we
would still be wearing loose flowing
robes.
Very choice buttons can now often he
picked up IN the old curiosity shops in
Paris. Some beauties procured from
these sources were worn the other day
by a well-known society lady, each was
an exquisite portrait painted on enamel
of Marie Antoinette. Nine. Recamier.
Queen Elizabeth and other celebrated
and beautiful women. They were set in
brilliants and worn with handsome bro
eade of the empire style and lovely old
lace. The effect was simply charming.
