resort down the river, where they cX-
pccted to have a great cooking main
and return to the city the next morn

Before the destination was reached the
steamer went on sandbar and stuck
fast ten miles from now here The
weather was very cold and ice formed
about the craft. The sports, de-
tcrmiued to make the best they could Of
the situation, improviscd a pit on the
deck and held a few fights. As the
hours went by and the night grew older
and the ice in the river thicker, there
came no hope of getting til" boa, Of or
Of being rescued. Then someone be-
came hungry, and il was asCcrtaiued
that the sandwiches had given out.
There was nothing to eat on board!
Eor some hours longer the sports put
on a brave front, but finally hunger got

two days and two nights they hung up

Bantamweight ED" Kelly, of North
Albany, noted for being the best 115.
pound boxer in that section of New
York state, the other day began teach
ing Gov. Roosevelt's two boys, Teddy,
Jr., and Kenneth, how to spar.
Gloves were fastened upon the boys
hands, and Kelly started in to explain
the various swings, counters, upper
cuts, half-arm blows and side-step-

youngsters ''smoke up" They did so
in a manner that surprised Kelly.
The bantamweight had forgotten
that the boys had been taught deal

also by Prof. Dwyer, the governors tu-

as he expressed it, were putting it all

AT THE PARIS EXPOSITION.
This Account Says the American Pa
yiiion Is Il Benutifui and At
tructiyc Structure.

Our cocher has been ordered to turn
and suddenly | find that we have come
out upon the Quai d'Orsay, and are at
the entrance of the Pont des Invalides,
says the New Lippncott. Here cabby
is ordered to halt, and looks on in sur
prise as we descend into the ankle-deep
dust and proceed by means Of our open
sesame. to the place where four Ameri-
can flags at the corners of large
square indicate the Enclosure chosen
by our commissioner general for the
American pavilion.
Here, on the rive gauche, in com
pany with others of the Payillons des
Etrangeres, will stand the American
pavilion, beautiful and attractive
structure, whose broad steps lead down
to the water. Here Americans may
land, and at once receive that welcome
and attention which the visitor soon
discovers is second nature to the com
missioner general and his staff; and
here, more than anywhere else in Paris,
will he find himself thoroughly at home.
1t is to our commissioner general and
his untiring industry that we are in
debted for the great amount of space
which is to contain the great American
exhibit, and even my gloomy guide is
tempted TO break into triumphant
smile at this new proof Of American
skill and energy.

premiere danseuse told them her story
from beginningeto end and made them
sympathize with it, too.
There was, indeed, a covert envy in
the attitude of some of these women
toward her. The easy manners, the
charming address, the inimitable grace
of movement-theyh had never seen the
like, and they coveted the lady these
possessions. 1t would not be true to
say that they felt perfect confidence
in her. They felt deep interest in
her; she fascinated everyone she met;
that had been her custom from time
immemorial. 1t had, in fact, been her
profession. But the good ladies waited
with some apprehension for the time
when the dancer would give them dis
agreeable surprise. She was sure, they
felt, to outrage the conventions some
time. They were not prepared to say
that they would blame her; it was
thing 10 be expected.
But the months went by quietly. FL

out untoward demonstration of any

SAMOAN BELLIES GOWNS.
They Grow on Trees and Are Almost
Ready for Use when
Gathered,

Party gowns for Samoan girls grow
on the tropical trees and almost ready
for wear, Says the indianapolis News
When native beauty of Samoa decides
to go to a special ertertainement she
enters the forest to look for her gala
attire, The native kiki, or kilt, is the
only addition to her ordinary costume
that the Samoan girl provides for spe-
cia, parties. The material for the kki
grows on the tree. 1t consists of a rib
bon Of bark few inches wide that is
stripped from the tree easily. While
damp the bark, which is very thin, is
crinkled so as TO form wayy outlines,
and the ribbons are colored all sorts
of bright hues The Samoan girl then
plaits waistband from the same kind
of bark and hangs the ribbons on it,.
Handmade flowers of the same material
are often added also.
When the kiki is completed the dusky
belle puts it on over her scanty laval
ava, or waist cloth. and goes to the
dance or other entertainment. The
girls thus make their own party
dresses, and some Of them show great
taste and skill in fashioning the old
garments, although the captious might
allegc that they might, without being
oyerdrCssod. have Samoa on.

THY WILL BE DONE.

"Thy will be done" a child's voice said.
As bending low a mothers knee
She lisped the prayer Of infancy.
Those words so soft and sweet TO near.
All meaningless fell on her ear;
Her own strong viii yet sleeping lay.
Like serpent meath the flowers of May.
"Thy Will be done" a maiden prayed.
With gentle love her heart was stirred,
And yet she faltcred on that word.
The world path shore with dazzling light
The path OF duty seemed less bright;
Conflicting doubts her faith o'ercast
Oh. could she trust Him TO the last?
''Thy will be done" a woman prayed.
She stood beside a lOwly grave,
And saw the long grass DER It wave.
with radiant face and steadfast eyes
She looked beyond the distant skies,
with faith triumphant, vlct'ry won,
Her heart cried out: Tiny will be done
