faced with fibre lace, with nautical

white lace applique and braid with
sailor shaped brim and single
white feather. Her white costume
was given a rich tinge OF color by a
magnificent bunch of American beauty

companied Miss Peabody and gave her
careful and extended directions how
to hold the gilt encased bottle of
champagne and where to strike it
against the steel bow of the ship.
During the few minutes the chris

ringing underneath and along the

and stays. Finally the cutting ceas-

anxious silence, broken only by the
swishing of the big saw cutting
through the last block. There was
a cracking noise and everybody exr
pected to see the Colorado glide down
the ways, but the monster vessel did
not move and there was a whisper

moving bow. There was an aroma of
White Seal in the air and bedlam
of footing whistles and screeching
sirens, not ceasing until the ship
went into the water with mighty
splash and fioated out in to midstream.
Everybody forgot the momentary
hitch and said it was the most sue
cessful launching ever seen at the
Cramps yards.

handsome and expensive. There is
an elegance throughout the produc-

Philadelphia, April 25.-The ar
INQUIRED cruiser, Colorado. celebrated
the second anniversary of it's existence
today by graceful plunge into the
welcome waters of the Delaware.
The keel of the great war vessel was
laid April %, 1901. and for two years
an army of Cramps workmen have
been busy putting together the thou
sands of tons of iron and steel forming
the hull and compartments of the
monster ship which is to represent
the state of Colorado in the country s
greater navy.
The weather this morning was
cloudy and threatening and presaged
that the Colorado would be launched.
as was the Denver amid storm and
rain, but at noon, the hour set for
the ceremony. the clouds cleared away
and the ship was christened in sun
shine as bright as that of the state she
represented.
Cramp and Sons, the builders, know
how to launch vessel equally as
we'll as how to build one. The ar
rangments of the firm commenced at
Washington, where two special cars
were placed at the disposal of the Wis

and press.

MAORI TATTOOlNG.
Tortures which the Women Under
go During the Process.

English explorers and scientists have
brought back u series of remarkable
specimens of Maori tattooiEg from the
interior of New Zealand. The most as
tonishing designs were found on the
faces of the women.
The faces and bodies of the women
are so covered with these blue marks
that they look as il they had on tight
fitting chintz dress.
The instrument employed in tattooinS
to obtain the deep burrows is usually
made of bone, having a sharp edge Ike
a chisel and shaped in the fashion o. a
Garden hoe. Another style is made of
sharks tooth.
The tattooing of the women is COM
menced when about the age of fifteen
or eighteen and continues until they
reach middle age. Most of the masters
of the art are professionals, who go
from village TO village and are highly
paid for their services. The pattern
about to he engraved is first outlined
on the face with small stick dipped in
powdered charcoal, after which the
skin is gashed. and the coloring or pig
ment is introduced into the cut flesh
with a stick dipped into the liquid.
The coloring material used is gcner-
ally the resin of certain tree, which
is burned, powdered and converted into
n fluid.

A LONG SENTESCE.
One That Discounted the Longest
One Evarts Ever Uttered.

One Evarts Ever Uttered.
Abram s. Hewitt had a very nimble
wit and dearly loved a joke. He was
once guest at Il dinner which includ-
ed Recorder Smyth and Senator Evarts.
The recorder was poking fun at the
senator and read from newspaper
clipping what purported TO be SEN
tence from a recent speech made by
the senator, but which was in reality
wholly fictitious, as the senator knew
quite well. At its conclusion the laugh
was long and hearty at Mr.. Evarts' ex-
pense. and no one laughed longer or
heartier than the senator himself.
AS soon as the laughter had subsidized
Mr.. Hewitt suddenly leaned across the
table and, looking rather sternly into
the smiling face of tee recorder, said in
a we'll assumed tone of reproach:
THAT certainly is remarkable sen
tence, your honor, but criticism of it
does not come well from you if today's
newspapers are to be believed, for they
contain a sentence of much greater
length which is attributed to you"
"Why-why, how is that, Mr.. Hew-
itty' inquired the recorder, with con-
siderable confusion.
Because" said Mr.. Hewitt. with the
utmost gravity and that grim smile
which always accompanied his best
sayings, you are there quoted as ut
tering sentence that was to last
through the whole life of the prisoner"

When Burman has earned little
money, he Immediately proceeds to
spend it all, for the Burmese have no
ambition to be rich and never hoard.
Consequently there are no large land
owners, and, there being no aristOcracy,
the people are as near being on an
equality as possible. Poor people are
quite rs rare as rich people, and the
only beggars TO be met with are the
lepers, who sit on the steps of the pago-
das. Should Burman find himself in
possession of a large sum of money lie

mains, lie gives theatrical perform

Two views of the Same Question.

\ noted bishop in order to point n
lesson in humility sometimes tells a
story of young clergyman whose first
appointment was TO be an out of the
way and poor parish.
On his first Sunday in this new sta
ton the young man as he looked over
his wretchedly clad and ignorant con-
gregation could not help saying TO him
self, with a groan:
Dear me. what dreadful thing it
would he if | should have to stay here
any great length of timer
At the end of the sermon deacon
made Il prayer. TO the young mans
horror one part of the prayer was Il
benevolent hope that this ignorant, in
experienced, barren pastor that had
lately come to the parish might I'M
prove and grow learned and fruitful in
good works, so that he would come to
merit being kept OH there for awhile"

After leaving Grand Island the first
stop was at Hastings. Falrmont and
Crete received short stops and the
train arrived at Lincoln at 1 o'clock.
After short stops at Wahoo and Ere

Sis.
Much preparation had been made
in this city for the presidents com.
ing and he was enthusiastically greet
ed by probably $4,000 people.
Elaborate decorations of bunting and
flags were everywhere. At the en-

board of governors of the Knights OF
Ak-Sar-Ben. with Senators Millard and
Dietrich, Governor Hickey, Congress

Why Dumas Laughed,

Sir Richard Wallace once heard the
elder Dumas laughing boisterously in
his study and was told by servant
that Dumas was working and that he
often laughed like that at his work. 1t
turned out that the great novelist was
'in company with one of his own char
acters. at whose sallies he was simply
roaring" But this was years ago, when
imagination went hand in hand with
animal spirits. 1t would be difficult to

1t is the fattest of all fishes, for which

The First Measure of Time.

1t was the moon and not the sun
which first suggested to mankind the
circle of the year as a measure of
time. The sun exhibits no changes of
appearance. and his light obiterates
all the landmarks of the sky \ lu-
minary which is the same yesterday,
today and tomorrow might give rise to
conceptions of perfection and eternity,
but beyond the alterations of day and
night it could suggest to mems minds
no abstract measure of time. But with
our humble satellite it is far otherwise.
The regularly recurring phenomena of
new moon and full moon are too
marked to escape the attention of the
most obtuse and unreflecting of saw
ages.
The motion of the sun may be COM
pared to that of the minute hand of
clock. sweeping on hour after hour with
out leaving much record of its compar-
atively vast journey. The progress of
the moon. on the contrary, may be lik-
ened to that of the hour hand which
registers the movements of its COM
panion and resolves them into twelve
well defined periods.

DOING THE GRAnD ENTRY.
How n Circus Horse Enjoys His Part
of the Performance.

The experiences of a farm horse that
Unexpectedly joins a wagon show circus
is described by Sewe.l Ford in Horses
Nine" Calico is the name of the horse.
At night he has a hard time pulling the
band wagon over the country roads, but
he thoroughly enjoys his part in the
performance under the main tent. The
author describes Calico's feelings as
follows;
All, that grand entry! That was
something to live for. No matter how
bad the roads or how hard the hills
had been, Calico forgot it all during
those ten delightful minutes when, with
his heart beating time to the rat-tat-tat
of the snare drum. he swung prancing-
~ around the yellow arena.
II all began in the dressing tent with
a period of confusion in which horses
were crowded together as thick as they
could stand, while the riders dressed
and mounted in frantic haste, for to be
late meant to be fined. At last the ring
master clapped his hands as sign that
all was in readiness. There was mo-
mentary hush. Then bugle sounded,
the flaps were thrown back, and to the
crashing accompaniment of the band
the seemingly chaotic mass unfolded
into double line as the horses broke
into a sharp gallop around the freshly
dug ring.
The first time Calico did the grand
entry he felt as though lie had been
sucked into a whirlpool and was being
carried around by some irresistible
force. So dazed was he by the music,
by the hum of human voices and by
the unfamiliar sights that he forgot
to rear and kick. He could only prance
and snort. He went forward because
the rider of the outside horse dragged
him along by the bride rein. Around
and around he circled until he lost all
sense of direction, and when he was
finally shunted out through the dress
ing tent flaps he was so dizzy he could
scarcely stand.
