on the deck, cheered his men with the
now historic sentence, Don't give up

Miss Lawrence comes of an old Amer
lean family dating back to colonial
days. Several of her ancestors distin-
guished themselves in the colonial wars
and the war of the Revolution.
She is a daughter Of Abraham r.
Lawrence Of New York, for over %
years justice of the supreme court.
Miss Lawrence takes an active part
in woman's affairs in New York, being
a prominent member of the Colonial
DANES of the State OF New York and
In incorporation of the Little Sisters Of
the Quill. She IS author Of a book of
Colonial Verses and writes short sto-
ries and poems for various periodicals.
At the outbreak of the war with
Spain Miss Lawrence volunteered as a,
nurse, but lacked the necessary expert
ence. She has Travelled extensively, and
her social standing as a member of the
old Lawrence family is acknowledged.
As souvenir Of her illustrious kins-
man Miss Lawrance cherishes some
pieces of the hull of the old Chesapeake,
still dotted with the shot of the Shan
non, with which thai vessel fought in
the memorable conflict off Boston har-
Dor.

chantilly lace laid hat, only gathered at
the rounded pdrtieHs and held full aleng
the bottom over the demitrain.
The joipiDe. edges and outlines Of all
the lace design We're bordered with
chenille and fine Jet beads. There was
a belt Of selid Jet woven closely. The
waist was, like the skirt, covered with
lace, save in front. where there was a
vest of chiffon closely pulled. The high
collar was likewise Of jet.
The sleeves were of mauve silk mus
lin shirred over mauve silk, with mar
row ines of black lace down the upper
parts. Now. isn't this a gown fit for
an American queen?
Sweet simplicity is stii the order for
the young girls. and for them are very
dainty dresses. One for a lovely young
lady was made of coral pink taffet3,
with a tulle overdress dotted with white
chenille. There were three ruches of
pink crepe ltsse. The baby waist had a
drapery of crepe lisse with pink ribbons
and rosettes.
For another angelic being was made
a cream benga1ine, with crepe lisse
shirrings, ruffles and sash all of apple
green.
Still another heart breaker had a
dress of frosted maize satin, with white
iisse gathering On the skirt and around
the neck of the baby waist. This is the
favorite waist for young girls this sea-
son. This had, in addition, a narrow
bertha and sleeves of accordion plated
lisse. There was a swiss belt Of black
net edged with white lisse ruffies and
wrought with Silver spangles.
But the prettiest OF all the evening
dresses thatI have seen this season was
Of silvery gray eau de sole, almost
thick enough to stand alone. The skirt
was laid in ample folds and demitrain.
This was entirely plain The bodice
was pointed front and back and OF the
rich silk. There was a tunic overskirt
of silvery white silk gauze gathered
around the waist very full and to a deep
point in front and back. but short on
the Sides without looping. It was hem
med at the edge, -Four inches above the
edge were three rows Of pale pink satin
baby ribbon.
The waist was draped from the sides
forward with the gauze to a point.
There was a pointed fall in front, with
two rows or The ribbon. The sleeves
were puffs of the gauze, with what n
might call cuffs Of emerald green vel
vet, with q little gold embroidery on it
as a foundation for a lot Of pink pearls
to represent flowers. Two reyers were
put along the square neck~of the same
velvet n wrought in the same design.

elegant and graceful. One of the latest

His father was a poor farmer. At the
age of 8 years, when the Knights moved
to Cranston, Robert went to work in
the print mills. He worked IA hours a
day and earned $1.25 a week. He has
never forgotten that. 1t was his broth
er, Brayton Knight, who gave him his
first start. Brayton Kept a grocery
store. He took Robert as a clerk and
later helped him to get an education.
After taking a course at the Pawtucket
academy Robert entered a mill as a
clerk. His employer was elected Urhted
States senator. and Robert leased the
mill, taking in a brother clerk as a.
partner. In a few years they bought
the mill, and thus was his fortune
founded.
Since then Robert Knights business
has been growing. He was not a man
to get into debt. He does not permit
his notes to go into the banks, where
they have to pay interest. He is his
own bank. His policy has been n OF
acquisition. He has added mill to mill
and village to village.
In New York he runs a wholesale
produce establishment and sends stores
to his various villages, where they are
retailed out to his employees. The VIII
lagos are largely collections of little
tenements built by him, to whom the
tenants, his workmen and their families
pay rent. The dollars that once come
into the swirl Of his financial maei-
stronl never soap What he pays out
for wages he takes back again for goods
purchased at his stores or for rentals Of
his cottages.
He is not an imposing appearing mar.
No one would recognize the cotton
king by the innate majesty of his APP
pearance. About 5 feet s inches high,
heavy in build, long r hair and chin
whiskers and a rather slow method OF
speech, seeking retirement, wholly wrap
ped up in his idol, his business, is Rob-
ert Knight.

e MARKIN SOLDIERS GRAVES IN CUBA.
diately ordered that care should be talk
en- of the graves until suitable arrange
ments could be made for Identification.
The reason for the urgency of the meas
ure is one that would not occur to a
northerner. DR.. McCook says that on
account of the tropical climate every
grave, In fiF9 weeks after its making,
would be so overgroWn with vegetation
that it could be recognized as a grave
only with extreme difficulty. Especially
was this true on the plain between the
sunken road and San Juan hill. The
graves were scattered, the soldiers in
many cases having been buried where
they fell, and the liability thai the
graves would be completely effaced was
great. It was for this reason that Pres
ident Mckinley sent the chief landscape
gardener of the government, with as
sistants, to Cuba, where every grave
was sketched, identified and its location
marked on charts.
DR.. McCopk returned to Cuba at the
request of the president to do prelimi-
nary work Ia designating the graves
nj to aid III caring for the sick, and he
brought back to this country maps and
charts of the graves at El Caney, a
Juan, Guantanamo and most of the hos
pital cemeteries in and around Santia-
go. Eventually the bodies will be re-
Q to the National cemetery at
Washington.
