A DAY WITH MRS.
ADMIRAL DEWEY.
THE PARROT SAYS "HELLO,
GEORGEw WHILE THE AD-
MIRAL READS AT THE BREAK
FAST TABLE.

MIRAL READS AT THE BREAK
FAST TABLE.
Mildred was the sweetest child /
ever saw" said Mrs Washington Nc
Lean the other day, glancing fondly
toward the corner where, surrounded
by host of friends, stood Mrs. George
Dewey, conversing with all at once, a
word for everybody, and no one in the
group forgotten. THAT was always the
way with Milly," she added; she was
the most admired in her set of girls,
and from the time she was able to go
to childrens parties until the present
day she was the most popular person
in the room"
Mrs Dewey has emerged from COM
parative retirement into position of
great publicity, and changed suddenly
from the drapery of mourning weeds
to the gaiety of society life. AS Mrs.
Hazen she knew the quiet LOT Of lady
Of means, going everywhere with her
mother, and occupying her time sew
ing, calling and doing kindred things.
Now she can know nothing Of this
modest home life, for she mas married
the greatest admiral of the century,
and she must be at his side. which
means a deal of going OIL. and life
of continuous excitement.
The room which Mrs. Dewey calls
her boudoir is large one, sunny and
beautiful, furnished in the Italian col
ors, red and blue, with touches of gold.
There is large, handsome pier glass
in the room, in which the adniral's
wife views herself before deciding
that she is worthy 10 stand oy his side
in the great public assemblies which
they constantly attend; ami there is
a low bookcase. where are gathered
the favorite books of both; net the
Admirars wonderful marine library,
which is one OF the finest in Washing
ton, but the books on travel, biogra-
ply. and the immense number Ct au-
tograph books which are his.
Her Early Day.
In this sunny boudoir Mrs. Dewey
spends the first few minutes OF her
day. before breakfast, arranging the
room, putting the finishing touches TO
a bow, spreading a pillow there. and
seeing that all is ship-shape for the
Admiral. who has a wonderfully keen
eye for the nice details Of life.
The Deweys breakfast at 5. The Ad-
miral, old sea dog. wants his break
fast early. and he will not be kept |
waiting for il AS soon as his servant
pronounces him dressed-for, while in |
the hot countries. he contracted the |
habit Of allowing valet to dress him. |
and even brought back devoted Chi
nese attendant, who utterly refused 10 !
leave him-he descends to the break |
fast room and sits down at the table. |
He is eager TO read the newspapers at |
this time and get posted on the mat
tiers Of the day. And SO Mrs. Dewey |
pours out the coffee IN silence, and a |
discreet servant serves him with his |
favorite mullins and his own Oriental |
coffee. There 10 fruit upon the table.

The village officials sent Father De
Hets word that he must leave China, but
with a few rifles and a small cannon he
held on till Gen. Tung sent word that the
Christians would be spared, but they must
disarm and Father De Hets must leave
for the coast. He was escorted to Gen.
Ma at Peitsang, and had been there for
three days when Petsang was taken.
The remaining converts were given one
weeks food by Gen. Sung acting under
orders from Picking. The Boxers obeyed
his orders.

Accounts have been received by mis-
sionary societies of the terrible sufferings
endured by the missionaries, male and
female in the long journeys from the in
terror of China to the coast through a
hostile population. The province of SEE
Chuen is now, however, said to be much
quieter and the British Consul has been
Instructed to return TO Chung King in an
armed river steamer. His needlessly pre-
cipitate retirement was not at all liked by
the Foreign Office, and he received in
structions to go back at once.

How Iris.

Kentucky has long enjoyed the eel. ebrity of producing the purest and best whiskey made in the world, though unfortunately many dealers take ad. vantage of the good name of the State by misrepresenting spurious goods as Kentucky's best product. !"
 We abhor deception in any form. and our motto has always been to sell none but pure whiskey. console mt tiously refraining from the use of oils, chem. calls or anything else to make common whiskey palatable at the expense of health to the consumer.
 In addition to our stocks of other whlskey we invite your special atten. tion to the
 OLD FORESTER wHIsKEY.
 We believe pure whiskey one of the most valuable medicines extant. and in recommending our Old Forester we say nnequivocally that it is all abso- lutely pure, ripe and fine Kentucky whiskey. containing not a drop of co. logne spirits or other substance to re- duce it's cost. We believe the Old For. ester costs more than any other whis. key on the market, and when quality is considered it is the cheapest to the consumer and contributes most to the good reputation of the merchant who handles it.

Rev. DR.. Browns Sermon.

The sermon of the Rev. DR.. c. G..
Brown. Of Sumter, before the South
Carolina Co-Educational Institute,
and our people generally. on Sunday
morniug last. WAS a remarkable one
and very delightful one. Presi-
dent +. y. X. Bailey of the Institute,
with his usual wonderful and telling
energy. had added, apparently, Il
hundred ordinary chairs to the fixed
opera chairs, and had built up an
amphitheatre Of benches in the gal
lery. Consequently the whole vast
and brilliant audience was COM
fortably seated. DR.. Brown is motor
iously an original man as we'll as a
learned one. He is also a supreme
ly quick and witty man, and often
dangerously satirical. He is further
more splendid word-painter and an
accomplished dramatist, OF rather
actor. This latter word may seem a
strange one to apply to preacher Of
the gospel, but it is really a pity that
more preachers of the gospel have
not the gift. When DR.. Brown
painted the picture of old John the
Baptist, bare and ragged, with a
leather girdle about his masterful
loins, in the magnificent and lux
urious audience hall Of the palace Of
Macheiras, what harm was there
that he acted the scene as we'll as
painted it in Words For really he
was aware that he was acting. Aud
