THE FRAIL HAMMOCK
SOlOA-.an COnsidereth Its Deceit at
Some Length.
Decideth That Ii Is a DeIusIon and a
Snare and Some other Things
Reduceth Proud Man to
Humble Sight.

Thus writeth josh Wink, the Solo
mon of the Baltimore American:
Consider now the hammock, how it
lurketh like a snare
To grab the unsuspecting man and
throw him in the air.
Yea, verify, the hammock hath a
look Of innocence, but it may take
the strongest man and throw him to
the fence.
The hammock hangeth to the trees
with meek and humble look.
And tempteth foolish man until he
tOmeth with a book,
And climbeth in and streteheth out
and openeth the page,
And then the wicked hammock get
teth up its fiercR5t rage.
1t turneth like q serpent, and it
taketh such a clutch
Upon the feeble victim that he
gaspeth very much.
1t whirleth him about the air and
swingeth him around, and when he
Opes his eyes again he's damned up
on the ground.
o, surely, surely, this is SO, yet over
him the while
The hammock swayeth quietly and
seemeth then TO smile.
But yet again the man doth get
within the hammock there, and think
eth he will read the book and Danish
all dull care,
And then again the hammock
jumps before a page he's read,
And ere he lInCweth what is up he
standeth on his head.
Yea, verify, and then again ham
mock in the shade
VIII cunningiy exert itself and lure
foolish maiG
To seek to rest within its folds,
and when she sitteth in
The hammock, it viii almost seem
20 wear happy grin.
II seizeth on the maiden fair and
| ehuckleth at her shrek,
The Washington bee., 1901-10-05

And lambeth her upon her neck be-
fore she tries to speak;
She spraineth both her dainty
wrists and moaneth: 40, alas!"
And fndeth that her pompadouF is
cluttered up with grass.
And all the while the hammock
sways with truly pleasant gall,
And seemeth to inquire of her:
"Good sakes! Did some one fan?"
o, yes, my son, and on a time when
Cupid holds his sway,
And some enamored youth comes
round to learn the happy day,
'Tis then the hammock acteth
worst, for it will hold the twain
Until impassioned murmurs mark
the courtship of the swain,
And then the hammock taketh
them and in the air doth hump,
And giveth both their foolish heads
a most terrific bump.
And slingeth them about the place
until it getteth tired,
And when it wearieth at last across
the yard they're fired;
The man descendeth in heap upon
the garden walk;
The maid hath hairpins in her eyes,
and is too mad to talk;
And then the wicked hammock
waits in most unholy glee
To hear the racket that 1t knows
is very sure to be;
For when the maid regains her
breath she rises to her feet,
And voweth that the man himself
Is full of all deceit,
And that he pulled it down himself,
and that she never more
Will see his face. and wtsheth that
he'd gone an hour before,
And that she'll never, never, be his
bonnie blushing bride,
And so he getteth TO his feet and
far away doth ride.
NV son, beware the hammock when
It swings itself Alright,
For it can make the proudest man
q truly humble sight.

and have no sympathy or respect for
him"
The Union league promptly took the
matter up. Senator Wellington having
been one of the original members. A
special meeting of the board Of gov
errors was held, and by unanimous
vote resolutions were passed expelling
the senator and stating that the club
had heard with loathing of his utter
anceS.
While the club is a republican organ
ization, it has some democratic mem
bers who Joined because Of its social
features. 1t is therefore stated that
the expulsion could net be on political
grounds, but was because the senator
had violated the laws of humanity.
Wellington is the first member Of the
Union league to be expelled. The
league has a membership of 1000.

HAS A FINE RECORD.
Admiral Ramsay, Third Member of
the Schley Court.
Was Not Engaged in the Spaniah War
and Has Never Expressed hH
Opinion Satisfactory to
Both Sides.

The vacancy in the Schley court of
inquiry, caused by the retirement of
Rear Admiral Howison. who was chaI-
lenged for cause, has been flied bv
the detail of Rear Admiral Francis
Nj. Ramsay, retired.
In the selection of Admiral Ramsay
the department adhered to its orig
inal purpose of securing an officer
who had not been actively identified
with the Spanish war. Admiral Ram
say retired four years ago last April,
and has made his home in Washing
ton.
Admiral Ramsay, was the imme-
date predecessor of Admiral Crown
inshield as chief OF the navigation
bureau of the navy department. He
was born in the District of Columbia,
but was appointed from Pennsylva-
mia to the naval academy as midship-
man October ), 1880. When the civil
war broke out he was a lieutenant on
the slOOp of war Saratoga in the Al
ican squadron, but as soon as he
became lieutenant commander, in
1862, he was transferred to the Mis-
sissippi squadron, and in command of
the ironclad Choctaw took part in
nearly all of the naval engagements
in the lower Mississippi and Yazoo
rivers. With a battery of three
heavy guns mounted on scows he par
ticipated in the siege of Vicksburg
and later was placed in command of
the third division of the Mississippi
squadron. His record is full of en-
gagements with guerrillas and confed-
crate batteries, and of expeditions
headed by him up the Red river, the
Black river and elsewhere, in the
Mississippi and gulf waters. He was
transferred to the North Atlantic
squadron in '64 and '65, in command
of the Unadilla, and was in the thick
est OF the fight at Fort Fisher, Fort
Anderson, the Cape Fear forts and
finally at the capture of Richmond.
Since the war his principal work
has been as superintendent of the

HARD ON WELLINGTON.
Untou League Club of baltimore Ex-
peIs senator for Sighting lie
marks on Mckinley.

The Union league of Baltimore, the
leading republican club of Maryland,
has expelled George Wellington from
membership because of his statement
that he had no sympathy with Presi-
dent Mckinley.
The night after the shooting of the
president Senator Wellington was
asked for an expression on the at
tempted assassinat He replied by
stating that he had no statements to
make, as he and the president were en-
emies, and as he could not say any
thing good of him he would say moth
ing bad. When further questioned on
the subject Senator Wellington said:
Mckinley has not treated me right,

killed in an engagement with the
Albemar;e at Plymouth, n. c. He
studied law at Harvard law school,
was admitted to the bar in 1866 and
began practice at Boston. He acted
as private secretary to Caleb Cush-
ing, counsel before the Geneva tribu-
nal in 1872, and on his return to the
United States opened a law Office in
Washington. When in college Mr.
Hackett contributed several articles
to Harvard Magazine, and while IN
the navy he wrote short stories for
the Knickerbocker Magazine. Later
he furnished a series of humorous
articles to Punchinello over the sig
nature of Sarsfield Young. He has
lectured on different topics, one sub
iect being "HOaXes." He is deeply
interested in local history and biog-
raphy, and is a frequent contributor
to magazines on the subject of Ports
mouth and its early history. For
many years he has written for the
New England Historical and Gene
illogical Register. He was appointed
assist tant secretary Of the navy in
April, 1900, upon the retirement Of
Mr.. Allen, who has just resigned the
gOYernorship Of Porto Rico.

Frank Warren Hackett, who was the

IS we'll known TO the fighting men
and the engineers of the department.
He was born at Portsmouth, \. H.

Harvard of the class OF 1861. During

naval academy, chief of the bureau
of navigation, ordnance work at the
navy yards, and various ship com
mands, including the Boston, one Of
the first vessels of the new navy. In
1889 he became commodore, and in
the same year was appointed 10 the
navigation bureau as chief, a posi-
tiOn filed by him until the date of
his retirement-APril 5, 1897, with is
years and 9 months sea service.
Admiral Ramsay succeeded Admiral
Sampson as superintendent of the
naval academy, and he established so
many important reforms in the insti-
tuition that his administration is es-
pecially noteworthy in its history.
years and was marked by one of the
few rebelliOns which have every hap
pened at the naval academy among
the cadet battalion. Admiral Ram
say displayed great frmness and the
culprits were made to suffer heavily.
The revolt was remarkable because
it involved the first or highest class,
was regarded as a serious infraction
of the naval laws, and rendered every
cadet liable to dismissal. Instead Of
losing their commissions, all the
members OF the class were impris-
Oned on the station ship Santee, de-
prived of all privileges an other
wise made to pay the penalty of
righteousness. The cadets insisted
at the time, when questioned why
they rebelled, that Admiral Ramsay
had ordered all of their heads shorn
in order to procure hair for the NOR
tar used in building a new residence
for the superintendent. The real rea-
son was objection to some order of
the superintendent.
During Admiral Ramsay's admins
tratiOn at Annapolis q congressional
investigation was talked Of, owing to
reports that Cadet Strang had been
killed by hazing and that his tor
mentors had rolled him down hill in
a barrel With spikes driven through
the sidss. Strang died from other
causes, and it was clearly proved by

In the early part of the 70's Ad-
miral Ramsay was naval attache at
London. He afterward commanded
the Trenton. then one of the finest
ships of tie navy, which was later
lost on the shores of Samoa during
the great hurricane Of 1889.
Admiral Ramsay was married 20
years ago to Miss Mcmahon, a sister
of Judge Martin Mcmahon, of New
York city, and has one son, Paymas-
ter NJ. NJ. Ramsay, in the navy.
A well-preseryed man of IS years
OF age. with delicate, refined features,
and clear gray eyes, and an erect
bearing. Admiral Ramsay still bears
the reputation which he earned many
years ago, of being sAe of the hand
sOmsst msB of the EAVy.
