HOW PHILIP GAVE THANKS.

Congressman Charles B. lands. OF
Indiana tells new story in the In
dianapois Journal Of how Captain
Philip came TO hold devotional SER
vices on the battleship Texas after the
battle of Santiago. The Journals
story is as follows:
Mr.. Lands said he had registered
at the hotel at Old Point Comfort,
and saw a battlcship at anchor. He
asked the clerk what the ship was,
and he was told it was the Texas. Mr..
Lands was Il great admirer of Cap
tain Philip, and particularly admired
his calling his crew together after the
fight at Santiago and Offering thanks
TO the Almighty. He asked If Cap
tam Philips was in command, and the
clerk pointed out that officer, at that
time sitting reading a paper. Mr..
Lands introduced himself and had a
long talk with him, and they fought
the battle of Santiago over from be-
ginning to end. All the time Mr..
Lands was consumed with curiosity
to know whether or mot the story of
Offering thanks was true, but he hesi-
tated to ask about it. lie finally
plucked up courage and asked the
captain. Captain Philip was visibly
embarrassed, he said, and hcsitated
before answering, and then he said:
"Well, Mr.. Lands, it was this way.
THAT is-it was-well, II you drop
your hat on the street and some one
picks it up for you, you say "Tl,ank
you, or If you fall down on the street
and some one helps up you always say
Thanks There was that boat, with
a storm OF iron and shot going on one
side and then on the other. Then
they would fall in the water all around
us, and then there would be perfect
cloud OF them pass over our heads, and
yet We were not struck. When the
fight was over and we were not hurt,
IT seemed TO me no more than fair
that we should say Thank you so !
had the crew called on deck and told
them so. Every man took off his cap,
and you could have heard pin drop
on that deck, and after it was over
ana walked passed that crew, l saw
tears on the faces of many an old
sailor that ! supposed did not know
how to cry"
