THE DEWEYS AWAITING THE
STORK.

Washington, July 27.-Admiral and
Mrs. Dewey have returned to Beauvoir,
their country home near the capital, and
gossip is busy with reasons for the
abandonment of Narragansett. where it
was supposed they were to spend the sea-
son.
Before the Deweys went to Narragan-
sett Mrs. Dewey was reported to be in
bad health, which prevented her from par
ticipating in various social incidents. 1t
was reported that she had improved while
in Narragansett and the home coming
was a surprise.
Today Washington society is busy with
a story of an expected visit of the stork
to the Dewey home. -
OF course the story came out in the
usual way-a visit to Mrs. Dewey and
the finding of her busily engaged examin-
ing fine bits Of lace, little garments 6nd
doll clothes. The friend smiled and asked
if Mrs. Dewey was fond OF dolls, where
upon, the story goes, the secret was out.
Admiral and Mrs. Dewey were married
in November last.

moved that the nomination of Mr.. MOul-
ton be made unanimous and all were in
accord,
MIR. Moulton, who was present, accept
ed the nomination, and in the course of
his remarks paid pretty tribute to his
old school teacher, Mr.. Henley, who acted
as secretary of the caucus, and pledged
himself to fidelity to duty should he be
elected. The caucus then adjourned.
