An onicer'b Training is One Which Mem
W. h4, Ends. va

The education and training OF An
officer of the United States Navy, saws
success, have in view the single pur.
pose Of fitting him to, exercise, prop.
erly and without falt6ring, command
in battle. HIS education lis obtained
at the Naval Academy; his training
never ends. Upon the completion Of
four years of study at Annapolis,
where he learns the Gleory and some
practical knowledge Of his future No.
fession, he spends two years at sea,
acquiring information which win DO
useful when he places his foot upon
Tie first rung Of commissioned rank.
Returning to Annapolis, be receives
his commission. and then is sent back
to sea, an insect among his seniors,
but an ensign and an officer to his
family and his friends. As mid.
shipmnn he has performed tho duties
Of an enlisted man, and as an ensign
he is consequently equipped to drill
the division placed under his command.
He imparts to the men the intrlcacies

surprising to a civilian unused to the
WAYS of the service. While recently
m board the United States ship
Prairie, a training ship for landsmen,
saw Lieutenant Edward FL. Watson
one Of the young watch and division
officers, teach a man how to tie knot
The knot was simple, but the man was
dull. Again and again Watson took
the rope and twisted 1t, directing at.
tention to each stage of tne operation
as he advanced. At last the student
grasped the idea. During the after
noon when free from other duties, he
occupied his time In perfecting him
self in his lesson. When next he was
asked by Lieutenant Watson to tie the
knot, there was celebrity in the move
ment which brought forth a word Of
commentator. The pride that flushed
the landsman's face repaid the trouble
his officer had taken.

In Harper's Magazine Stoddard
Dewey gives some interesting facts
concerning the fresh air colony main
tanned by the municipality Of Paris
for the children Of the poor:
"In 1889 there were 200 children to
profit by this colony Of Mandres-sur'
VAR; now there are 1000 each year, and
the property has been handed over per-
manently to the Eleventh Ward. the
movement has become general in the
Paris schools, and the municipality
has come to the aid Of the insufficient
ward school funds. In 1891 the city
raised its contribution for these school
colonies to 100000 francs, and the
school funds Of the twenty wards gave
$4,000 more; and $500 children, underl
the care Of 200 teachers, had ther
summer outing. Mandres is the larg'|
est Of these colonies; the total expense
Of journey back and forth and three
weeks stay is tifty-three franc and
eighteen centimes for each child-a
little over $40, as exchange goes" n

he loved them that way, and father

pantry, cause Jim would be hungry

And I watched, and you ate every
little teeny bit"
The man hid his face in his arms
against the door, but Bob pulled him
impatlently.
"Come to mother" she coaxed.
Together they went through the long
hall. and across the sitting room to
the shady porch, where Nell was ar
ranging her mothers pillows.
"Motherw called the eager little
voice, "Ive brought JimT" And Bob
glanced around the group, where Jim
and Nell and mother were all together
on the sofa.
Later on she sat happily on the lap
of her peach pluck, eating huge slice
of bread and rich, dark peach butter,
and listening as Jim told of his running
away because he wanted to see the
world; how he had wandered and
worked and tramped for ten whole
years. until the bitter inconsistencies
had driven him back again. He had
not meant any one to see him, for he
was ashamed, but thought some one
else had bought the farm when he
saw the child there. He had not
known it was his own little sister
whom he had seen and whose quick
ness had kept him from wandering
away again.

radiantly, "but l just knew for sure

and he ate them all."-New York

He went out Of the door, and Bob
tiptoed after him, watching, until he
turned into the inclosed porch, between
the kitchen and the smokehouse. Then
she went back to the kitchen and with
funny little gesture she pressed both
hands over her mouth as II to suppress
her delighted giggles, while she danced
from one foot to the other In her ex'
element.
When the man returned he opened
his eyes at the repast which the child
had laid out for him.
''I'm sorry it's only the kitchen cloth,
but it's perfectly clean" she assured
him, with a nervous little laugh, as she
tried to carry a chair for him. He
took II from her with a muttered
THANK you, let me do It," and Bob
sat In a chair opposite and watched
his every movement intently. He was
a little uneasy at first, but he evidently
needed the food and ate hungrily.
Bob's eyes frightened as she saw him
unfold his napkin with a little shake
and lay 1t across his knee, and move
his knife, fork and glass Of milk little
to one side and back again. Slice after

with pleasure of his recent promotion by
the Holland Butterine company, Of Pitts

representative of that company's inter
ests with headquarters in this city. where

ing branch. The concern is a large one
and the business over which Mr.. Finnell

promotion came to him after a ieitgthy
term in the service of that company and
he deserves all that has come to him, as
his work has been of such a successful
nature that the Holland people rewarded
him with the position mentioned which
is n very lucrative one.

AMERICANS
LEAVING
Quite an Exodus Of American Civilians
from the Philippine Islands.

San Francisco, March I3.-The Amer.
Jean population Of the city of Manila
has dwindled within the last two years
until there are now scarcely more than
5000 civilian residents in the city. The
American population of Manila two
wears ago was estimated at 1000.
The exodus of white people from Lu-
ION within the last year is due to the
reduction Of the army in the Philippines
as the principal cause, and the climatic
conditions, the labor sitaution and the
impending dearth of agricultural pro-
ducts and diseased caraboo have also
been an influence in inducing Americans
to leave the country.
J. K. Sutton, a government contract
or. arrived from Manila today. He said:
1T Is undoubtedly true that Ameri-
cans are leaving Manila in great num-
bcrs. Those who went TO the Philip
pines from this country with the idea
OF engaging in commerce are returning
with their hopes blighted. The exodus
is due to several reasons. The unde-
veIoped condition of the country gives
no opportunity for Americans to engage
in any agricultural pursuits. Because
OF the uncertainty of securing adequate
labor, capitalists have hesitated in in
vesting money in the country, and as a
consequence the great natural resources
remain undeveloped.
Famine is threatened in certain dis
tricts where the cultivation of rice is the
principal pursuit, owing to the ravases
Of disease among beasts of burden"

"A TURKISH TEXAN
The Attraction at the Traders Grand
Opera House Next wednesday
Night.

Willie Golfers latest and most sue
ccssful comedy, a Turkish Texan"
which win be the attraction at the Grand
opera house on Wednesday, March 10, is

in Turkey. He goes over there to claim
fortune of five million pounds left
him by an uncle, who had emigrated to
Turkey some twenty-five years before
the opening of the story, and had amass-
ed large fortune through valuable ser.
vices rendered the Sultan. Upon the IN.
cles death he left wiz fS55Sueathing to
his nephew all his money upon the con
dition that he forsake America, adopt
the AIohammedan reiision and become
full,aedged Turk These conditions are
very obnoxious to the young American,
and while he IS anxious to obtain the
money. absolutely refuses to carry out
the terms of the will. His efforts to Sc
cure control of the money, and still re-
main true 10 his own country, furnish
some very clever and funny situations.
Nj. George Parsons, who was selected
by Mr.. Collier to play the leading part,
is young and Sandstone actor, and his
work in the new play has been accorded
universal praise by the critics all over
the country. Mr.. Parsons has surround
ed himself with distinguished company

RoIIed Hems For Damaslr.

When cutting table linen, cut BY the
pattern, which is the same as cutting
By the thread. The thread makes the
pattern, which takes less time than
pulling the thread, and you win achieve
the same result. The simple rolled hem
done by hand should finish the raw
edges OF all damask tabIecloths and
napkins unless a hemstitch is pre-
ferred. In this case the tablecIoth usu-
ally has a two inch hem and the nap
klns are finished with an inch hem.
TablecIoths cut from the web are
much cheaper than those woven with
border.
