A suggestive Incident.

A little story which is told of one Of
the rich men Of today is calculated to
arouse thought. 1t is said that some
one came to him one day with the state
ment that the father of a clerk in his
employ was in the poorhouse. The busi-
ness man enquired who the clerk was, and
on being informed, exclaimed: why, he
is one of the best paid men in my employ;
he can certainly afford to take care of his
father" Thereupon, he sent for the clerk
and told him Of the story, adding, "Now,
I cannot AFFORD to have It said that 1 pay
my employees SO little that they must
send their fathers to the poorhouse." The
clerk replied that his wife was at the bot
tom of the trouble: that she had been un-
willing to have his father in the house,
and had made SO much trouble that the
matter had ended in this way. The mer-
chant then said: Tell your wife that I
say that il you do not provide for your
father l can no longer employ you," and.
he added, with grim humor, IF she doesn't
believe you, tell her to come to me-" The
clerk said that he had been very uneasy
about the existing situation, and thanked

Dewey En- Dishabille.
Trom the Chicago Tribune)


Admiral Dewey used to be called the
dandy commodore because he was so
careful with his clothes. says the Chicago
Tribune" Though his wife died twenty
years ago. it is a matter of tradition that
Dewey was never seen without a spotless
uniform, and never wore a pair of socks
which were darned or needed it. 1t is,
therefore, surprising to find from the rec
ords of the navy department that the great
Admiral ''the dandy commodore" once
fought a battle of his own clad in no more
striking uniform than an immaculate
nightshirt. After the civil war Dewey was
cruising in the Mediterranean on a ship
supposed to be the old Canandaigua. The
war fever had died out. and the men fire.

off into the darkness. Dewey was execu-
tive officer of the ship. and was called from
his berth. Though even then particular as
TO his dress he didn't care about uniforms
when there was quick work to be done.
He rushed up to the quarter deck in half
a gale Of wind. and promptly took COM
mand in spite of the darkness.
Come back here. Jim Brown. Tom Rob-
inson and the rest of you,' he shouted.
and punctuated his remarks with three
shots from his revolver.
The shots. the ghostly figure on the
quarterback and the sudden use Of their
names startled the men into obedience,
and they came sneaking back to the ship,
while Dewey and his novel uniform re-
tired once more below.
This incident is vouched for officially.

O'Clock p. m. Miss Cuttings, daughter OF
John 8. Cuttings. will be the sponsor.
The launch will be according to the beau

OF the vessel, the sponsor will release a
covey Of white doves, covered with white
flowers. The doves, frightened by the blare
of steam whistles. will circle away over
the surrounding masts and the flowers will
fall In shower of fragrance and beauty
on the deck of the new vessel.
The custom of releasing doves at a
launching had its origin in a pretty story
current in Japan. A feudal chief of the
Shinto faith. whose devotees worship the
spirits of their ancestors. had daughter
whose hand was asked in marriage by a
chief of another faith. Stern refusal only
strengthened the determination of the
young couple to wed. and an elopement
followed.
Pressed by the fathers minions, the fugi-
tive lovers hid in a cave in the mountains.
AS the cave was about to be invaded by
the pursuing party two doves few from tho
entrance. To the father they betokened
the spirits of ancestors protesting at the
Dissertation of their abode. Believing him
self rebuked by them, he turned away, his
dependents went with him. and the lovers

summer night, and that, in fact, ice in
quantity is very unpleasant. even at this
season of the year. Two thieves came in,
ordered drinks requiring fee, and while the
loon-keeper's back was turned pushed
him into his ice chest and locked the door.
Then they looted the place. They got a
considerable sum of money. a gold watch
and chain. and many drinks. The unhappy

if something had been shut up in the re-
frigerator. He opened the door, and there
sat the prisoner upon q cake of ice, nearly
dead with cold.
1t seems quaint predcament to be in
frozen to death in June, in New York
City-but for time it looked as if that
were the case with the unfortunate sa-
loon-keeper. He was finally restored to
health, however. and is now in position
to inform any enquiring person that it
is no more comfortable to be frozen in
June than in January-that, in fact, the
irony of the situation adds to its miser-
les. All common mortals, wandering
around in the heat, and signing for ice
bergs, will please to reflect that if they
were on the icebergs they would prob
ably be much more uncomfortable than
they are now

Colds in Warm Climates.

Colds and allied diseases are so easily induced

EARTHQUAKE IN CONNECTICUT.
Shocks Felt in Many Towns In the
Nutmeg State.

Middletown, Conn, June 27.-An earth
quake shock rumbled and vibrated up the
Connecticut Valley last night, the second
one in less than a month and much more
severe than the first.
The shock occurred about 7:15 p. m. and
lasted fifteen seconds. 1t was felt only
about three miles on each side OF the
river, as far as known here. but every
where people who felt it thought il was
accompanied by loud explosion.
The centre of disturbance seems to have
been in this vicinity. although two dis
tinct shocks are reported in some places
in this valley through which the seismic
wave rolled from the mouth of the river
to Hartford. Here houses were shaken
from their bases up. people ran into the
street. ehimneys tumbled. and vases and
mirrors fell from the shelves and walls.
On the Hill here the floor seemed to
rise and fall under a party of Wesleyan
College men. who were in Alpha Delta
Phi House. They ran into the street. No
one was hurt although the main chimney
of the house tuInbled.
AT Portland some damage was done by
falling bricks. The top of a tall factory
chimney fell. At Seabrooke much crock
cry and china were smashed. So far no
casualties are reported.

Taken mt His Word,

from the Detroit Free PreSs.)
In the Chamber of Commerce building is
a lawyer recently admitted to the bar and
going through the trying ordeal of waiting
for clients. Much of the gloom usually at
tendant upon this probationary period is
relieved by the fact that his father is both
rich and generous. SO that the youth takes
life cheerfully and never overloOks a
chance for amusing himself. He had two
boon companions with him one afternoon
recently and with their feet on the table
and pipes in their mouths they were hay-
ing an enjoyable seance of gossip.
In the midst Of their hlarity tall
stout man with a red face and twinkling
blue eyes came suddenly upon them with
out the formality Of knocking. He was
going to lecture at some suburban hall for
the benefit of an organization to which he
belonged and wanted to sell them tickets
The young lawyer scented sport and said
that he never bought goods without seeing
them or a reliable sample. He would have
to have a few extracts from the lecture
before deciding whether he wanted to hear
it.
Perfectly right" admitted the caller.
He tossed his hat on desk, jammed it
full of handbiils he was carrying, struck
an attitude and commended at the begin
ming. Soon he warmed to his work. He
had a voice like a factory whistle His
gestures were marked by strength and ac-
tivity. The noise rolled down the corrid-
ors and filled the Offices. The curious
came rushing from every direction. Stand
ing room was soon at a premium and
typewriting girls stood on chairs at the
outskirts of the crowd. The young lawyer
ordered the excited orator to stop, but he
needed not pleadings. protests, or thp.ats.
His lungs improved with exercise and his
tain stream. He only stopped when he re-
ceived $40 in exchange for tickets, and the
youth acknowledged that some practical
Jokes are loaded.

CHINESE CANNOT LAND.
A Novel Case Decided by Collector
Stone, of Baltimore.

Stone, of Baltimore.
Baltimore. June 27.-Capt. Sewell Lam
caster. of the ship William ]. Rotch. was
before Collector Stone yesterday, asking
that two Cinnamon, Wong Foo and Ah
Hing, who were employed on his ship as
cook and steward. be allowed to land at
this port. Captain Lancaster stated that
the men were shipped on his vessel at
New York city during December. and that
since that time he had made trip to Rio.
from there to the Barbados. thence to
Trinidad, where he loaded for Baltimore.
He said the Cinnamon had been aboard his
vessel the entire time. and as they had
been shipped in an American port, he ask
ed that they be permitted to land here.
1t developed during Collector Stone g
examination Of Captain Lancaster that
Wong Foo and All Hing were not origi-
nally shipped by Captain Lancaster, but
that two other Cinnamon had been en-
ployed. These, however. deserted before
the ship sailed from New York. and Foo
and Hing were substituted to complete
the crew. Captain Lancaster could not
state whether either of the men was reg
istered in the United States. but said that
he had never had any question raised
about their landing before. Collector
Stone cited the following paragraph Of
the Chinese exclusion act:
Chinese laborers embarkiHg at a United States
port on an American vessel for another United
States port which touches at foreign ports en-
route, may be permitted 30 re-enter at United
States port Of destination provided it appears TO
the satisfaction of the collector Of customs that
they remained continuously on the vessel, and did
not land at foreign ports
In view of the fact that the ship had
been to several ports, and as the captain
could not state that the Cinnamon had
been properly registered. and as all Chi
nese look alike to the collector, he de-
cided to place an inspector in charge Of
the vessel to keep the men from landing
while she is in this port. The collector
notified Captain Lancaster that the PEN
atty provided for permitting these men to
land would be fine of 81 600 IN each case.
The questions involved in the case are
both intricate and novel; In order to be
certain about tie matter Collector Stone
communicated with the Treasury Depart
ment. which Immediately confirmed his
decision

SUICIDE OF A FARMER.
Kisses His Sleeping Wife md Blows
His Brains Out.

Troy. Mo-. June 27.-Kneeling by the
bedside of his sleeping wife. Capt. NJ. v.
Moseley yesterday morning offered up a
prayer, pressed a farewell kiss upon the
sleeping woman's brow. and then sent a
pistol bullet through his brain. Mrs.
Mosley was partially aroused by the kiss,
but few tender words from her husband
lulled her into sleep. Awakened by the
crack of the revovler. she sprang from
the bed only to stumble across the pros
trate form of the dying man.
Captain Moseley was one of the best
known farmers in this section and lived
in a handsome house eight miles south
east of Troy. News of the tragedy was
brought in by farm hand sent here for
the coroner and an undertaken. The sui
eide is thought to have been due to fl
nancial troubles. Captain Moseley was at
one time reputed to be very wealthy. but
of late had met with reverses and his
creditors were pushing him, rendering
him Respondent.
