pearances led a life OF ideal happiness.
They seemed especially devoted TO
each other. On one occasion, when
the husband was returning from Wis
II to the TaJo mine and was detained
ON ship iniquarantine In San Francisco
bay, the young wife smuggled herself
on board the vessel at night, declaring
her place was beside her husband. She
thus brRved the dangers OF yellow Jack

weary hours by her beauty and vi
yaclty.
During this time there lived at Santa
Monica. the seaside resort OF Los An
Eeies, W. Russell Ward. q handsome
and vivacious young Englishman, who
was fond OF athletics. He journeyed TO
California with party OF Englishmen
who went there TO develop a scheme
for making paper from the pulp OF the
Yucca palm, but the scheme fell
through. Ward married California
girl, one OF the handsome daughters OF
Don Juan Bandlni. II was a love
match and the couple lived at the Ban
DIM cottage, overlooking the Pacific
from the Santa Monica bluffs. Ward
seemed a model husband. but spent
much OF his time with his male com
panlons in heroic sports. In 1897 Mr..
and Mrs. Bradbury went TO Santa Mon

One OF the quaintest characters In
the old American navy was Admiral
Joseph Fyne. as blum and fearless an
old sea dog as ever stood upon the
bridge in time OF danger. There Is
hardly an ofiicer or man In the service
10 this day but can repeat some Of the
witty and original sayings and dolngs
OF Joe" Fyffe. Besides being as good
a seaman as ever trod wooden ships
OF war, the admiral had a tongue
which was about as impressive TO for
eigners as the guns which peered from
the portfolios OF his vessel. Joe Fyffe's
ideas OF diplomacy were based on the
primary principle that there was to be
no backing down or beating about
the bush" under any circumstances,
and that whatever mistakes Americans
happened 10 make should be stood
BY Just as II they had been inten-
tional and part and parcel OF elabo-
rate plans. This phase OF Joe" Fyffe's
character was striklngly illustrated
about 10 years ago, when Admiral
Fyffe's flagship sailed into the harbor
OF Portsmouth. England. According TO
international etiquette, the saluting
guns were unlimbered on board the
visiting vessel for the usual salute
OF 81 guns. which are given in honor
OF the nation in whose harbor a for
