you will go over to the Baltimore and talk with the men just in from the far east you or anyone else can get from their lips ample proof that Secretary Long has done the right thing and every enlisted man will say Amen to what he has written. I'll wager, too, that every one of them who has served under or in the same fleet with him will tell you that McCalla is one of Gods noblemen, and that there is not a braver, a nobler, a more just or a more trusted leader than this man who was so unjustly punished at one time by q political court-mlrtial. I never met but one sailor man who would not go through any hardship or take any risk necessary to serve Cap tain McCalla, and he was q drunke n fellow who served quarter of his time in the brig.

A TAKERS PHILANTHROPY
Though Poor Man Himself, He Sup
 ports Ten Chicago Street Waifs.

A private orphan asylum is maintain ed by Frank F. ENeritt. a Chicago street fakir Though a poor man him self. he supports ten street waifs. They live together in flat, over which he himself presides as philosopher. guide. friend and protector.
 MT. Everitt has gathered these boys together. one at time, and organized a kind of club for them. furnished than with a kind of club house, with three good meals a day, and all he eXacts from them is the maintenance of order and discipline.
 This club of ten is now domiciled in a flat of three rooms. These rooms are known as the "clubhouse," and Mir. Everitt is called the father confessor. He pays the rent of the rooms out of his own pocket, and assists the boys in supplying their larder He expects the boys to do their share in supplying provisions and their own clothing. so that the little community may become in time self-supporting. No boy in the Everitt is allowed to accept gratuities or food from strangers unl5ss he has worked for it and each one is an inde-
 
 with pride and honor.
 Nearly all of the ten are now 'em- ployed as newsboys or messengers but if any One chances to lose his posi- sion or becomes ill he is supported and protected by his comrades until his luck may turn.
 They are all well dressed. well be- haved and precocious chaps. with that s.lpN NVh hn h invariably shows. and each one is de- termined to make his mark in the world. The oldest members of the little cooperative housekeeping solony attend night school, while the others are compelled by a rule of the commit ity to pursue certain amount of study each day under the guidance of Everitt. Their protector has supplied school books, a large blackboard, and a set of maps and lessons are allotted for each day. There are courses in arithmetic. algebra. spelling. reading and grammar. and two of the eldest are now ready to enter high school.
 The money which the boys earn tn y keep themselves. and each contributes his small mite toward buying supplies. They cook their own meals. and take turns in allotting the labor. MT. Ever itt buys their food supplies by the wholesale. and the little colony always has on hand a generous supply of meat, coffee, flour, sugar and vegetables.
 Mir. Everitt has organized system of self-government by which the boys ar. in honor bound to preserve order and peace in the househu:d. Only a few simple rules have been laid down which he ha f A are expected to rise at o'clock in the morning and to b. indoors not later than 9:30 at night.

pelled for all time. or simply turned out.
 Their suite of rooms is kept in An or derly, well directed manner. There are two bath rooms. where th boys take q daily plunge. One room is used entire ly as gymnasium. and it is as well fitted up as other and more prrtcntiuns establishments. This gymnasium glo ries in the possession of two punch ing bags, two horses for l-aping and vaulting. a fla,. board used as a rub bing-dOwn table, curved table for back exercise, an eXefciser with weights for arm movements and q pair Of swinging rings. The boys take turns at exercising with this paraphernalia in tn, ir spare hours. and with cleanly. regular habits. and plain, wholesome food, they keep themselves in an excel lent. healthful condition.
 The second room of the suite is used as a dormitory. It contains five larg beds and two couches. Each lad con trols certain number of hooks placed along the walls, where he hangs his clothes and other possessions, and no
  private domain. No lad IS permitt, to scatter his clothes or other posses sions on the floor. so that this large room is always a model of neatness and order. Housecleaning is accomplished , once a week by a detailed committee of two or three, who sweep. wash win dows and place the flat in good cond- tiOn. They do the family washing as T I ..l,;, machine They keep their clothes mended and brushed. and each one is fast acquiring the desire for good ap- p.arance and discovering within his heart the instincts of d gentleman.
 The third room is used as a dining room and kitchen. Here the boys cook their own meals and concoct dainty dishes which some good housewife miglt look upon with wonder. Scotty. who is chi.c Of this clan, is also head cook and each day one member is % tailed to help him. They own a cooking range a rather miscellaneous assnrt- ment of china and cooking utensils. but they manage to live in comfort. and they possess q home which many If their former street associates would envy.
 
 rial is always on hand. and the news papers. magazines and books are care fully guarded and classified and pre- 1 s rved by these boys. who read with extraordinary eagerness all literature i that comes into their hands. They own l five testaments, which are as popular as any lurid novel they may happen tp 1 acquire in their library.
 EVeritt do not seem to have any | trouble in finding employment for his i lads and keeps d list of desirable jobs" i always posted in rhe ''clubhouse." so ! that the unemployed may seek and con | sider places. Not one of th- boys has 1 the trampish appearance of the regu- l lar news peddling rounder.

THEY ALL SWEAR BY McALLA
The Word of Praise From a Man Who
 Has Served Under Him.


 
 Had Secretary Long tried for years
 he could not have done q thing that would have proved so popular with 'Jacky' as the very thing he did the
 other day when he made his special order commenting Captain McCalld for his services in China said young TcnneSSccan. at one time petty
 officer in the navy. Among the men
 I served under was McCal!d, and in common with my shipmates l learned not only to admire. but to actually love the man. He was perhaps d martinet
 at times. but when We came to think it all over. even the sea lawyers with which every ship is infested generally came 10 the conclusion that McCalLL
 was all right and that what he had
 done was for the best. We all knew |, that he was as absolutely fearless as a man could be. and that he would never ask q man to go where he was not willing to go and to lead himself l never net q man in the service who had seen duty under him but sWore by him as often as they sWOrC at other
 officers. The men all agreed that they . would face the devil himself if McCalla , would only lead them. At the time the
 captain was suspended and lost his
 rating as a result of the charge that he struck one of the marines on his vessel with his sword. the men on thr
 ship. with one or two exceptions. ! agreed that the offender got what he
 deserved. The stir that was male
 about the matter was due to one If
 your New York papers that was ach-
 ing for sensation and seized upon this
 incident to show that it Was q friend of the poor sailor which was of course q bit Of demagOgy that was intended
 to make talk and sell papers. The congregation of the incident was ali . done so SleVerly that even the depart ment at Washington was deceived and McCalla received what has always been believed in the navy to be uniust punishment. l told you this over in
 the Brooklyn navy yard a half dozen years ago and said that time would straighten things for McCalla if there eyer should happen to be a war and he had q chance to Sho,' the sort of i stuff hc was made of.
