Don't See 1t that Wav.

Mrs. Katie c. Nealy of Annapolis,
Maryland, has circumvented plan of
the government authorities to secure
peaceable possession of the house she
occupies in the new grounds of the
academy at that place. sfSS
Mrs. kealy always left home at a
certain hour for church and plans were
made to close the gates of the grounds
so she3would be unable to re-enter. but
she scented the danger and remained
at home.
The government does not desire to
lay violent hands on woman, vet
stronger action against her will now
probably have to be taken. For DAYS
her water supply has been cut off and
it seems she is ready to die in her
castle to maintain her rights, as she
conceives them to be. She means to
remain in possession until the govern
ment pays her for the house.
In 1892 her husband died without a
Will. His estate was divided and the
property ON which the present house
stands was assigned to Mrs. Kealy as
part of her dover.
After the estate was divided it was
found that there We're 50 many debts
that some Of the property had to be
sold to pay them. Mrs. Kealy's home
was one of the houses that was sold.
John T. Mulhall bought it, but was
never able to secure possession.
When the property was condemned
by the government tor the use of the
naval academy Mulhall was paid the
amount awarded, but Mrs. Kealy re
fused to recognize the legality of the
purchase.

OCEAN LINERS IN PORT.
The Work That Is Done by the Crew
ThAt Never Sails.

The Work That Is Done by the Crew
Th@t Never Sails.
The captains authority over an ocean
liner, and equally, of course, his respon-
sibility for her, extend only over the
time when she is crossing the sea.
Practically the responsibility ceases
when she approaches land on either
side, for the pilot assumes charge or
her navigation as soon as he comes
aboard. When the ship arrives at her
pier, or as soon, to be exact, as she is
within hailing distance, the captain Is
no longer in control. She is then under
the authority of the Marine super1n-
tendent, who is in command OF the
piers and tugs and harbor front equip
ment Of the line and who takes charge
of the docking of all vessels.
To bring a giant liner to rest at her
pier is a delicate operation. The flow
of the tide, the Roadway impaired by
her engines before they stop, the depth
Of the water, must all be taken into
consideration, for the quarters are mar
row, and if she were to ram the pier
it would mean bad smashup. But
with the skill Of long experience the
superintendent, by voice and hand, con-
trolls the great vessel perA city, and
with tugs helping her and cables draw
ing her she glides into her resting place
as quietly and easily as a tired child
slips beneath the covers at night.
Practically, from the moment when
the liner is made fast she is turned
over to the crew that never sails. Her
officers remain on duty, and their work
is as arduous and almost as incessant
in port as at sea. But the law requires
that the crew Of each vessel shall be
paid off and discharged at the end Of
every voyage. In the case Of the liner
they are again signed Immediately, but
during the period while the vessel lies
in port they are not officially connected
with her, and the work which naturally
would fall to their lot is performed by
the port crew.--Earl Mayo in Leslie's
Weekly

BOY BATTLES.
Let the YOungster Learn to Stand Up
For His Rights,

Have you forbidden your son to fight
under severe penalties? And have you
sent him to d public school hampered
by this injunction? This is the infalli-
BILE result: Either he will fight and
deny it to you, which is far more
blameworthy than fighting, or he will,
if strictly obedient boy. refuse to
fight or to resent imposition, and thus
gain the reputation Of a 'milksop" or
SISSY" and his school days will be
made miserable by the injustice of this
stigma and by the indignities and an
noyances to which he will be subjected
by his mates. If you find your boy
Quarrelsome and inclined to impose

there are schools so long Will there be
