Paid for Insult.

An unusual scene has been enacted
on the United States revenue cutter
Seminole, lying in Boston harbor. One
day recently one Of the seamen, a vet
eran tar, broke out in the forecastle
in violent abuse of pretty nearly ev-
erything. He proceeded in his vitu-
peration without being molested until
he called the United States flag a dirty
rag, and INDUCED in other unpatriotic
sentiments.
A quartermaster standing near re-
ported this language to Captain Rog-
ers, commanding the Seminole, and
the latter took prompt action. All
hands were called to general muster
and the captain addressed them on the.
enormity of the offense committed by
one of their number. Then he com.
PEELED the culprit to kiss the flag six
times and to repeat after him an OBJ
legation never to speak disrespectful-
ly of it or to allow anyone else to do,
so in his presence. The name of the.
offender is not made known.

DEWEY PRAISES NAVY SERVICE.
Says Every Man is a Man of Intelli-
qence.

Newark, n. 1.-THE Evening News
prints an interview with Admiral
Dewey, credited to its Washington
correspondent, in which the admiral is
quoted as saying:
The United States has the greatest
navy in the world, for this reason: Ev-
cry man in the United States navy
is a man of intelligence. He knows
just what to do and the right time to
do it,
"a warship is an enormous machine
shop, and every part of that ponderous
creation must be operated by intelli-
gence. Every unit can not be told at
the time of action by officers just what
to do and when to do it. The least
man must know for himself. Orders
that are given to a crew are neces-
sarily of a general character, but in
conflict every stroke of work must be
directed by intelligence. This is what
makes the United States navy the
greatest navy in the world.
The German navy, for instance, is
an entirely different organization in it's
makeup of human material. l have
made deep study of that navy. My
belief is that it's efficiency in possible
action is greatly overestimated. The
men do not begin to compare in edu-
cation and intelligence with Ameri
cans. Their men have, in my opinion,
been educated so that they look to
the officers and depend upon them for
specific instructions in the least mat
tiers. They have not the self reliance
of the Americans"

Acres of Land-Loss Will Be Heavy
Great Excitement Around Natchez
and Vicksburg.

Greenville, Miss, March 30-The
backwater from La Grande crevasse
is rising slowly and nearly all of the
city is submerged. Business is para
yzed and people in the southern sec
ton of the city are moving about in
skiffs. The rise in the last "a hours
has been two inches. The reports sent
out from here that the city is in dan
ger of destruction are highly eXag-
gerated. The facts do not warrant
such statements, while rumors of
great loss of life are absolutely with
out foundation, so far as is known
Relief parties with boats have been
at work rescuing people in the path
of the flood and the refugees are
brought here.
1t was said that the mayor had
instructed the city engineer to cut
the protection levee in the northern
part of the city, as it is believed it
will be the means of letting the water
out through Fish lake. The country
beyond the lake is much lower than
the city and if the levee is cut it will
stop the rise in GreenVille and carry
off much of the water now in the city.
The shutdown of the electric light
plant is a'serious inconvenience to the
people and lanterns in skiffs may be
seen throughout the town at night
The flood situation outside of Green
vile remains practically unchanged.
The waters have covered thousands Of
acres of the fine delta farms and is
sweeping south of Vicksburg. The
loss will be heavy, but it is impossible
to give anything like a correct esti-
mate of the damage wrought by the
flood.
At Yazoo City.
Vicksburg, Miss, March 30.-The
flood situation in this immediate sec
ton is unchanged, but Yazoo City is
beginning to feel the effects of the
water from La Grange crevasse. The
back water is rising at the rate OF
two inches a day and the eastern por-
ton of the town is partly submerged.
Hundreds of sightseers.
Natchez, Miss, March 30.-The re-
port that the ArOnOlia levee, two miles
below Vidalia, La, was in imminent
danger of breaking, attracted hundreds
of sightseers from Natchez Sunday.
The water was seeping through and
80 men were put to work to save the
levee. 1t is confidently believed that
the levee will hold.
A message from Clayton Station
La, says that the Tensas river is ris-
ing rapidly and that the back levee is
under water. The canal at that place
will be closed.
