dash back to Key West, put the dis
patches on the wire, and, returning
pick up the fleet as soon as possible.
This method involved glorious oppor-
tunities for beats" Not only this.
but there were often exciting races be-
tween the boats to get the wire at Key
West. The cables leaving from that
port were always overcrowded during
the progress of the war. There was a
great amount of government matter to
be transmitted, and government dis
patches invariably took precedence of
was first come, first served" and the
man who got. in late, no matter how
important his dispatch, was not likely
to have it printed in his paper the next
day. There were occasions when rival
tugs came racing into Key WesI with
their steam gauges registering DAN
gerous pressure, and some of the cor
respondents serving as stokers and
feeding portions of the woodwork OF
the vessel into the furnaces. There.
were some exciting episodes among the
experiences of the men who carried
these dispatches. On some of the boats
oil in barrels was considered neces-
sary part of the vessels outfit, and,
danger point or no danger point, it
was poured freely over the coal burned
in the furnaces, the correspondents
preferring to take the chances of
blowing their boats up rather than risk
being beaten" by some rival news
gatherer. The boats were most of them
small, although Mr.. W. R. Hearst,
finding that he could not get good
tugs, on two occasions chartered verit-
able ocean steamships and used them
as dispatch boats for the New York
Journal. Of course these ships had
little to fear from the weather in the
Gulf of Mexico, but the smaller craft
frequently encountered real danger in
crossing from points of action to far
distant cable stations. Many OF the
tugs were without decent sleeping ac-
commodations and the hardships of the
newspaper men who manned them
were severe. Nor did the weather pre-
sent the only dangers which the dis
patch boats encountered l know OF
one case-that of the New York Sun
tug boat Simpson, at Guantanamo
when the boat went inc the harbor for
news, and came out with anywhere
from twenty to thirty holes made by
Spanish bullets in her upper works.

Marriage in
China


The Chinese recognize no other
sphere in life for women than mar
rage, so to this end girls life from
her earliest years is consecrated.
Hence the true reason of footbinding.
mo footie bind, no husband getee" is
the native explanation of the custom.
No sacrifice is considered too great to
secure the all-important husband. In
China you can generally pick out the
'unappropriated blessings" by the
knot of hair they wear on the side
of the head and the locks on either
cheek. When lady becomes engaged
these are pinned up by the "hairpin
of women" as Chinese writer calls
It,. The method Chinese ladies have
Of doing the back hair is often very
elaborate, as will be noticed in the
coiffures of Foochow or Hinghua

at the marriage agents. The Celes-
tial Adonis, when he would go wooing

Woman Runs a Canal Boat
Her Son and Daughter Assist in
Manning the Craft " ~ <

A good deal of attention was attract
ed to canal boat that was tied up in
Newtown Creek, N. Y, the other day.
The reason was that the captain was
a woman. She is Mrs. Sarah Stanton
and her daughter, her son and hlred
man make up her crew. The boat Is
the R. w. Potter of Whitehall, N. y.
Mrs. Stanton is woman of about So.
Her husband died about five years ago
and she then took charge of the BOAT.
While she was preparing to discharge
the boats cargo of lumber last week
a couple of longshoremen went up 10
her and said that they would do the
job for 40 cents thousand feet. She
replied that they wanted too much ana
that she would take charge of unload
ing it herself. She sent her daughter
down into the hold of the boat to pass
the lumber up to her son, who was on
the wharf, and he handed it to the
hired man, who did the piling. 1t did
not take long to finish the job. Mrs.
Stanton stood on the deck of the boat
giving orders. Mrs. Stanton said az
terward that it was impossible for her
! to pay men 40 cents thousand for
unloading as she receives only 80 cents
thousand for transporting, and, after
the towing and dock expenses were
paid she would have very little left

A Newspaper Fleet
Peculiar Feature Of tho spanish-American War

Within few days after the destruc-
tion of the Maine, correspondents from
all parts of the country were rushed
to the scene of the disaster. The news
reading public demanded every posi-
ble item of information regarding the
affair." the grave import Of which was
Immediately appreciated. But the
SPANISH officials soon instituted CEN
sorship so rigorous that very little in
formation percolated through the cable
from Havana. To cope. with the situa-
ton the New York Journal devised the
plan of having its dispatches sent by
boat from the Cuban coast to Key
West, where they were put upon the
wires and sent direct to the newspaper
offices. The other papers were not slow
to adopt this plan, and soon large
fleet of tugs, yachts, and small steam
ers were plying sbetween the island
and United States territory. This was
the beginning of the first fleet of news
gathering vessels ever assembled. At
the height of the war the New York
Journal had a fleet of eight sea-going
craft in commission, and the cost. alone
of maintaining these vessels amounted
to more than $4,000 per day. The other
New York papers had fleets approach
ing this in size, and the number of
craft engaged in the work of news
gathering at one time amounted to
nearly one hundred. The work of fol-
lowing the movements of the squad
rons under command of acting Rear
Admiral Sampson and Commodore
Schley, and of attempting to locate the
whereabouts of the fleet sent across
the Atlantic by the Spanish govern
ment, afforded plenty of occupation for
all these press boats and for the scores
Of correspondents that they carried.
Manifestly the only way to be absolute
ly certain of obtaining all the news
was to keep track not only of the large
fleets, but also Of the detached vessels
which were sent along the coast for
patrol duty, and the newspaper boats
had to make daily trips to Key West
in order to put their dispatches upon
the cable. To patol coast line as
great as that of Cuba (the island is
over one hundred miles long,, and to
know every event of Importance taking
place within its limits, was an ex-
tremely difficult matter. The plan
adopted by most of the press represen-
tatives was to follow up the fleet, keep
Ing the flagship in sight until bonn
bardment or some other event of news
Importance took place; then to make a

warm, and the water only few de-
grees cooler. Stay in the bath five
minutes, keeping yourself either I'M
der water or pouring wet all the time.
But it is after you leave the tub that
the really important part of the bath
begins. Dry yourself thoroughly with
two towels; then take stiff flesh
brush and try with all your might to
rub your skin off. A cocoanut fiber
brush is the best, and to get at your
back it is a good plan to have CO.
coanut fiber mat hung against the
wall to rub yourself against. Keep up
this friction for at least ten minutes.
You could not invest the same amount
of time more usefully. There is moth
ing like this to relieve the congestion
of the blood, and to free the lungs
from oppression. Moreover, it actu-
ally increases the size of the mus
cles and makes them firmer by caus-
ing the blood to circulate more vigor-
ously in them. AS to its effects upon

FEDERATION RULES APPLY.
No Discrimination by the Musicians
Union Against Marine Bnnd.

\ meeting of the members Of Musicians
Protective Union No. 16l was held yester-
day at Maccaboe Hall. The attendance
was unusually large. and addresses were
delivered by George A. Nachman OF the
American Federation Of Musicians. ana
James L. Foeney, President of the Cen
traI Labor Union, both OF which organ
izations are affiliated with the American
Federation OF Labor.
IT was expected that there would be a
great deal said with reference 10 the
members Of the Marine Band, because oi
the controversy relative to their coming
into competition with civilian musicians.
This however, it was stated by member
of the union after the adjournment, was
not the case in fact, it was said that
the members OF the local union have no
quarrel with the members of the Marine
Band.
According to the rules and constitution
of the American Federation of Musicians,
it Is contended, the members of Union No.
161, or any other chapter of the national
organization, are prohibited from playing
with members of any United States Army
or Navy bands. This rule, it is said was
not made by the local union; so IL cannot
be justly contended that the local civilian
musicians are discriminating against the
members Of the Marine Band.
Ghe rules OF the national organization,
however. in reference to this matter are
believed to be Just by the members of the
local union, on the ground that they do
not think Ii fair for men who receive
good salaries from the Government for
their services to be allowed to come into
competition with civilians of the same
craft or profession. Besides receiving fair
salaries il is stated that the members
of the Marine Bend also receive other al
Iowancos. which. If they had to pay for
them. would considerably reduce their
monthly income. All these extras, 1t is
contenGcd. the civilian musician has TO
pay for out OF his own earnings.
In reference to the qualifications for
membership in the union. it is said that
no one is barred whether he be employed
by the Government or not if he is not
n member OF an army or navy band, and
plays for pay. The restriction in member
ship. il is seen then, is solely in reference
To members OF the United States Army
and Navy bands.
So far as the incompetency OF CIVILIAN
musicians to perform on certain instru-
ments Is concerned. il was stated that
the situation is very much exaggerated
If given the opportunity. it is contended.
the local civilian musicians Will easily
demonstrate their efficiency under all cir
cumstances, at all times. and with any

the George W. Sanford robbery, COM
mitted shortly after II o'clock Saturday
night The sli2 in cash, and checks
amounting TO SIC. stolen from Sanford s
grocery store 1900 Four-and-a-Half Street
southwest, were recovered yesterday
morning The money and checks were
found hidden under a brick in the side
walk almost in front of the door of the
Htore from which they were taken.
The theft was committed while Mr.. San
ford was paying his help for their week s
work preparatory TO closing his store Sat
urday night He had taken the amount of
cash given above and the checks from
The drawer and placed it OF the top OF
cash r. s!Ster. Just at this moment MS
attention was called to other business,
and when he returned to pay OF thc
money and checks were gone. A roll Of
bills containing. it is said, nearly $500
which Mr. Sanford had laid beside the
bundle stolen, was overlooked by The al
legged thief.
After an investigation the police learned
that Lewis Brown. colored, a barber, ana
Isaiah Johnson. young negro laborer'
had been at the Sanford store about the
time the robbery took place and they
