Tame BmtterHle. for Pets,

Women have had all kinds of pets
from time immemorial, but perhaps the
strangest of all fancies in this direc-
ton is the latest news which comes to
us from Paris, that two ladies have sue
ceeded in tanning dozens of butterflies.
These little insects eat from their mis-
tresses' hands, alight on them and
show no fear of any kind. They are
certainly pretty pets, and well become
the airy, fluttering sweetness of the
typical woman's nature. The summer
girl during the dull days of the week,
from Monday morning until Saturday
noon, may in this new fad find means
of diversion, tanning her butterflies in
preparation to series of fetching
poses with which to captivate suscepfi-

CHAPTER II.

The captains cabin was an exceed
lngly comfortable one, with a large
chart table in the middle, cushioned
transoms around the sides, and sew
eral luxurious rattan chairs. 1t was
situated upon the hurricane deck di-
rectly under the wheel-house, and had
large windows instead of the usual
ports. so that we had an uninterrupted
view Of everything that was going on.
While I smoked an after-dinner cigar
end enjoyed the breeze which blew
through our quarters, the strange and
rapid succession of events that had
resulted in my being bound for the
most forgotten corner of the earth's
surface struck me very forcibly. Every
few moments some remiuiscence of
cid times would occur to one or the
othe' of US, and finally asked Hal
stead II he were married.
NO" he said; I'm not. was Just
going to ask the same question. 1t
re ems rather odd that we two should

IS, and you can't be- far from it
without settling down. Do you know,
cid chap, I'm. beginning to think |
haven't made much Of success in
life."
"Oh, l don't know. You're likely to
have ship as long as you want to go
10 sea, aren't you? And the house
would probably offer fairly good
berth ashore, II you felt like taking it,"
II suppose SO, as long as the pres
ent management remains unchanged.
but, even SO, there's no chance of
riaking fortune at II. Here we are.

with Five BulIets. But Saved
the Battalion.

There is pretty story told in pri-
tate letter received by naval officer
in Washington of young man who
held an entire regiment of the enemy
at bay while his companions to the num-
ber of 125 were pursued by an over
whelming force of the enemy, and at
last were enabled to enter their boats
and seek safety. This gallant young
man, who fell pierced through the body
by five bullets from the savage Fill
pinos, is named Emory Winship, assist
ant engineer in the navy. He halls
from Georgia and was graduated three
wears ago at the naval academy. Dur.
ing a reconnaissance by a party of men
from the Bennington at Malobon young
Winship was sent ashore in charge Of
the steam cutter conveying three open
boats laden with large landing party,
and with two men was left in charge of
the launch. The landing party foolish
ly advanced from the shore without
throwing out scouts or exercising the
usual precautions, and was surprised
and set upon by an overpowering force
of natives, who compelled the Ameri-
cans to hastily retreat in order toward
the shore, pursued by the yelling horde.
Winship realized at once the situation,
and, unlimbering the revolving cannon
of the steam launch, Immediately be-
gan to play it upon the advancing ma
tives. He was fired at by whole bat
talon of the enemy, but unflinchingly
he kept his eye on the sight bar and
his finger on the trigger and main
tanned a deadly fire until 30 Filipinos
had fallen dead and the Americans were
safe in their boats. Then young Win
ship fell back with five bullets in his
body. 1t is believed that he will re-
cover. Commander Taussis said that
but for Winship it is clear none of the
party would have escaped.-Chicago

my liver refused to stand the climate,
but about that time this gable changed
my plans for me-" Halstead looked
thoughtful as he read the message
which handed him. We had reached
the club quay, and were climbing to
the balcony, where the boy presently
brought us cigars and coffee.
