the consular regulations that consuls
of the United States rank with colonies
in the regular army, or captains in
the navy, although, even before learn
ing this, felt quite as important as
any colonel, writes j. B. Osborne, in
Atlantic. The chapter on the official
relations of consuls to naval officers
was also pleasant reading. Whenever
an American war vessel Tor squadron)
visits a port where United States
consul is stationed, it is the duty Of
the commander to send a boat on shore
with an officer to visit the consul and
tender him a passage to the ship. The
consul must accept the invitation, visit
the commander, and tender him his
official services. While the vessel is
in port the consul is entitled to a sa.
lutte of seven guns (nine for consul
generally, which is usually fired while
he is being conveyed from the vessel
to the shore. The official etiquette re-
1uires the consul to face the ship and
at the end of the salute acknowledge
It by raising his hat. All this has prac-
teal significance to our consuls at

Jacksons "Hunch" Was All Right But the Fafcs Jugeed

During the racing season at Sleeps

the track one Saturday for an after
moons pleasure. Among the number
was an old chap of the name of Jack
son. who every night for month
past had been dreaming of hats, hats,
hats. He dreamed he had bought
hats of every size and description
by the wholesale; that his rooms
were piled up to the ceiling with
them, and when he awoke in the
morning it would be some minutes
before he could satisfy himself that
he wasn't really in the hat business.
His mind had almost given away
with this strange hallucination. And
IL was for this very reason, with the
hope of getting his mind from the
subject of hats, that he was asked to
be one of party to visit the races.
A jolly crowd of six, among whom
was Jackson, started for the track
about noon. Each one was anxious to
try his luck on the horses, but none
was financially equipped to back
them heavily. In the list of horses
entered for the first race was one

New York. Count Won Bernsdorf with
a detective sergeant detailed by Police
Commissioner Greene, studied the 20
lice system of New York.
The thing which most astonished
him was that he was not bothered in
the streets by dissolute women. The
count told newspaper correspondent
that he especially admired the siza of
the New York policemen, their smart
uniforms and their courtesy, and he
referred in his report to the large. well
ordered police stations of New York
and contrasted them with the rooms
occupied by the Berlin police. But"
the count added, using recent adGi-
tion to his vocabulary, the Americans
have money to throw at the birds.
Since his return Count Won Bcrns-

this with New Yorks thirty seconds TO
