situation became about as desper-
Food and water had birth run
short; it was impossible to get
more supplies: all hands, including
De Mello himself, were reduced to
walking skeletons, and meanwhile the
batteries at the harbor mouth had
been powerfully reinforced. In this
plight PieXotto supposed he would be
only too glad to surrender, and sent

they would starve In the next couple
of weeks men did die on the Aquida-
ban Of actual starvation. Then De
Mello decided to end it all in a grand
coup de theater, and one night be
started at full speed for the harbor
mouth. Concealment was out OF the
question, and the battleship made its
dash with lights blazing, flags flying,
and band playing / met the admiral

they had no expectation whatever OF
getting through, but their sheer audac-

broadside and steamed triumphantly
out to sea- De Mello was in exile for

A Daring
Exploit

The arrest of Admiral Mello in Rio
de Jsneiro the other day on the charge
of conspiracy against the government
recalls the story of desperate and
dramatic exploit some years ago OF
which he was the central figure. In
1893 Admiral Mello says one familiar
with the incident, was in command OF
the Brazilian navy-which was un-
doubtedly the queerest conglomeration
in the world, 1t consisted of half a
dozen old scows and one tip-top bang
up, first-class battleship--the Aquida-
ban-the equal at the time of anything
afoat. 1t was the admiral's flagship,
and one fine day he astounded every
body by sailing into Rio harbor and
lalmly sending word to President
Peixotto that he wanted his resigna-
uon. When Peixotto recovered from
his astonishment he told him to 90 to
-, and De Mello thereupon declared
the city under blockade. Rio lies on
he inner side of a large bay, with a
very narrow entrance. There were no
guns at the town heavy enough to do
the big battleship any damage, but at
the harbor mouth there we're two forts
that could easily blow her out Of the
water, So De Mello had really sailed
into rat trap, stalking everything on
the chance of blufIing Peixotto out.
Ie could not shell Rio on account OF
foreign interests, and for three solid
months he circled round and round
the bay, trying repeatedly to make
landing and dash into the city. He
was enormously outnumbered by the
shore garrisons and always beaten
back with loss, and eventually his

Something About Kn,v $.

All boys have knives in their
pockets but some of them are so dull
that they are not of much use either
to their owners or to their owners
neiehhors. A boy without a knife, %
7 know from experience, is very mis-
cradle and in poor way to get all
the enjoyment ou; Of life. OF course
girls DO aot use knives so much as
boys do, but they frequently have to
borrow Of their brothers or their
friends when they want 10 sharpen
pencils or cut their jumping ropes or
gather pussy willows. Do not think
/ would urge selhshness upon readers,
but persons who borrow knives are
often very careless with them, losing
them or keeping them much longer
than they need. What | want to tell
you is the very simple thing OF how
to keep a pocket knife sharp, With
a little trouble and patience knife
can be sharpened and kept In good
order, but it is surprising how few
boys know how to do this. In the ilist
place, If the edge of the blade Is badly
nicked, or II the sides curve out 1t
should be ground on a grindstone un-
til the hicks all disappear. BE sure
to put plenty OF water on the stone,
so that the heat arising from the fric-
Sion will not take out the temper Of
the steel Hold tie blade firmly 81
that the stone will grind from the top
of the blade nearly to the edge. When
the grinding is done the sides OF the
blade should curve In. The blade may
then be said to hollow ground" II
the stone is allowed to grind to tho
edge the blade will become too thin
and will mick" easily. Now place the
blade in fiat position on a milestone
and grind with circular motion.
Treat both sides in this way till a
slight fringe appears on the edge. II
the knife does not grind it can be
"whet up" in the same way, with the
exception of bearing a little more
strongly near the cutting edge when
rubbing across the stone Either water
or, fine oil may be used on the stone,
which will remove the fine fringe on
the edge and will polish the blade.

Queen Never Discarded Old Clothes.
The sorting and arranging Of the
personal effects OF the late Queen
Victoria was tremendous task, says
London correspondent. One pecu-
liarity Of her majesty was never to
discard any dress, mantle, hat or bon
net which she had ever worn, and her
wardrobe might well have been con
Sidered the most complete record OF
the fashion of the last 60 years in eX-
istence. Another fancy Of Queen Vic
toria was TO have everything in dupli-
cate; two hats, two eloaks, etc., were
always ordered. Her majesty had
wonderful collection OF lace, but this
is not to be compared with the collee-
tion OF the Queen Dowager OF Italy.
