GIFT TO DEWEY.
Gold Watch to Which $4,000
Children Contributed.

Washington, April 25-Admiral Dewey
today received a delegation at his coun-
try home which represented $4,000 chill
dren in the northwest and presented to
him as a token of the regard and esteem
OF donors, a beautiful gold watch and
fob. The money was raised entirely by
'one cent subscriptions, the movement
being started by Archie Cadzow, of
Rosenmount, MINI.
The idea met with such favor and the
collection of the money involved so
much work that ITS newspapers in the
northwest joined in the movement and
assisted in receiving the money and re-
ceipting for it by publishing the names
of the contributors. All these names, to-
gether with a story of the enterprise
made up from newspaper clippings and
prepared in the form Of a beautiful book
accompanied the watch.
The watch is % caret gold, bearing the
monogram &c. D." in gold enamel on
the front of the case and the admiraPs
flag in blue and white enamel on the
back. On the inside Of the case is in
an inscription of the names Of the
Spanish ships destroyed in Manila har-
Dor, and the inscription: Presented to
Admiral Dewey by the children of Min
neapolis and the Northwest, May 1, 1900,
each donor contributing one cent
Attached is a fob of very unique and
beautiful design, made of gold and
black gun metal The watch and the
fob are made from gold, black gun metal
anu copper ODld1neQ from the 9n1lp-
pines, the gun metal and copper being
from ships destroyed In Manila haT'bor
The hours are marked on the gold
dial not by Roman or Arabic numerals
but by the letters of the admiraIs name
I there being eleven of them and just
! enough to occupy the required spaces.
| Admiral Dewey in reply said:
Il value the praise of the children and
| the affectionate enthusiasm they show
/ me and have never been more. touched
| than now. So long as the children love
/ me am unassailable, for they are I'M
| erring In their Intentions and know
| when they are loved
THAT fifty thousand little ones should
make me fifty thousand good wishes
as they bestowed their pennies for this
watch, is the proudest triumph of my
life. When I hear it tick or see the
hands move shall say to myself, How
rich you are, fifty thousand innocent
| kindly friends are with you and my
heart will swell with joy and gratitude
I shall wear the watch and feel it shall
be a talisman against all sorrows and &
| guarantee of happiness and success
