Roy RUN OVER,
But Managed to Escape Without a
Scratch.

While Frank Malloy, a small boy liv-
ing at 1888 South Robert street, was play
ing in the middle of the street last night,
he had a narrow escape from severe in
jury through being knocked down by a
passing carriage and run over. The boy
was standing with his back to the car
riage and did not see it in time to avoid
being struck. He fell almost under the
feet of the horse, and both wheels on
one side passed over his body. DR.. Kan
ten, who was driving the rig, stopped
at once, expecting to find a small boy
with broken arm or leg. The accident
proved without serious results and the
boy got up out of the dirt, brushed his
clothes, and stated that he felt as good
as ever.

That has not in some way been related
to the reception to our gallant First.
The preparations which have filed the
past two weeks were 60 complete, thanks
to the indefatigable energy Of the com.
mittees. that the soldiers we're fttingly
received and feasted upon their arrival.
The ladies who have had in charge the
arrangements for the serving Of meals,
are much to be commended for the
business ability and practical grasp of
large affairs displayed. ae we'll as for the
taste and ingenuity exercised in the
decorations Of the dining hall as whole
and Of the individual tables. The hall
used is in the form of maltese rross.
In the center, a platform. draped in red,
white and blue, with upright pillars
twined with bunting, furnished pleas.
ing point from which the long rows of
tables radiated. This stand was occu.
pied on Wednesday during the time Of
the evening meal by Hagenow's banl
which rendered pleasing program.
Wednesday was the first day OF the
feast and much curiosity wac evinced by
the crowds who surrounded the open
doors. and many commendatory remarks
were heard concerning the interior ar.
engagements. The entire ceiling space
was hung with triangular banners OF
pink and green, forming an overhead
sea Of soft and pleasant coloripg. The
center Of it was filed with flags and
profusiop of small flags and streamers
of bunting distributed about the walls
added the necessary patriotic touch.
At the north entrance was large arch
of the delicate green Of asparagus ferns,
and decorated with tiny flags. Mrs.
Will Whitman was in charge OF the dec.
orations Of the hall and everyone was
surprised at the transformation wrought
by the thousands OF pennants depend.

verging lines towards the center. Paes.
ing through the arch the soldiers dis.
tributed themselves through the room
and selected places at the daintily pre-
pared tables. each If which was pre-.

been responsible for it's preparation.

in serving were charmingly gowned

dividual feature, such as dainty caps or
distinctive rosettee, which added TO the
charm OF the ecene.
The ladies 10 charge decorated their
tables with a success which bespoke a
devotion and enthusiasm which merited
the admiration of all. The decor. lions
can not be described fully but the
merest outline must suggest the care
given to their arrangement. In the
north wing were five tables presided
over by Mrs. w. b. Ogden, Mrs. d. D..
Muir, Mrs. John Dorgan, Mrs. Lyon and
Mrs. G. H. Ladd.
Mrs. Ogden's table was deccrcted in
pink and green, a huge jardiniere OF
ferns occupying the center of the table
while bowls Of bridesmaid roses lent a
touch OF color. A rose at each place
completed most dainty whole.
Mrs. Muir's table was in red and
green, the blossoms used being scarlet
geraniums and cannas to which ferns
added brilliancy by contrast.
Mrs. Dorgan's table was in pink and
green. large canopy formed Of pink
chrysanthemums aud asparagus ferns,

there amid the gold. Mrs. Carl Funke
had chosen flags and asparagus ferns as
the medium for working out pretty
scheme for table surrounded by white
capped maidens. The central piece was
a large American flag draped from the
ceiling.
Mrs. Albert Watkins, with red and
green as color scheme, worked it out
uniquely with flowers and fruit. Scar.
let geraniums and ferns formed center
piece, while at each end Of the table
watermelons carved into pyramida
shape upheld the dignity Of the vine.
Mrs. Mitchell's table was in green

In the south wing two email tables

decorated alike with rcd geraniuu,ssnd

In the east wing Mrs. Frank Woods
presided at the fret table which was
gorgeous in red and yellow, cannas be-
ing the stately flower chosen. These
were massed in yellow jardinieres with
bit Of green to emphasize their brilliaucs.
Mrs. Walter Hargreaves chose golden
rod as reasonable decoration. A great
mass Of it glowed in the center OF the
table, while foliage plants with their
soft rich coloring, subordinating them
selves to the rich yellows, made ahsr'
monious and artistic whole. Glints Of

satisfaction which the beholder felt.

Fighting Bob Evans earned his
title the first year at Annapolis. He
has made good his claim to it since
years before he became skipper of the
Iowa, but Fighting Bob" was tackled
to him as cadet. At the time he was
sent to the naval academy there was a
rule of the institution which forbade
the decoration of the walls of the ca

thereon or in any way improving upon
the furnishing of the cells. The object
was wise and twofold. 1t sought to
prevent the boys from becoming soft
and luxurious and to head off any ex-
