DIDN'T SEEM HoMELIKE.
Irishman Appreciated the Kindness
But Could Not Stand for the
Cleanliness.

The name of ''Shaftesbury." given
to the projected series of lectures on
the housing question, reminds Il cor
respondent of the London News that
many years ago he heard the great
hearted Earl speak upon the subject
of the slums. Lord Shaftesbury said
that until the habits of the people
could be altered there would always
be slums; and he supposed Il state of
things in which all the slums had, as
by the wave of the magician's wand
been removed, while the drink traffic
and drinking habits remained. In a
year or less. he continued. there
would be the slums again, as. bad as
ever.
Lord Shaftesbury used to tell n true
story in this connection. He had
looked in at a poor dwelling, and
had been shocked to see it so very
dirty. If. he thought, the place were
once made clean. perhaps the occu-
pants would try to keep it 50. He,
therefore, asked permission of the
tenant to have the room nicely done
up. Leave was given, and the work
was executed, ceiling and. walls being
left a spotless white. About week
afterwards Lord Shaftesbury was
passing, and was amazed to see the
walls blacller than they had been be-
fore. He expressed his surprise that
so much dirt could have come upon
them in the time, and the tenant, a
good-humored Irishman, explained
the matter thus: ''Shure, we're very
much obliged for your lordship's
kindness. but the place had such a
could look, we thought we'd just ask
the sweep to come in and give it a
few warrIm touches"

just as well. There is yacht named
after Helen. So we will stick to the
name which Mr.. Vincent first select
ed. 1t is an euphonions title, and 1
hope it will bring us good luck. Let's

grew in size, if not in beauty Her
hull was divided into eight compart-
ments, and these were sheathed and
made as alright as possible. On
top of them they built a 24-foot cabin
with storeroom and some rude
buni<s. From opposite ends of the
cabin arose two short masts. At
night they worked on the sails, and
finally produced two triangular ones,
sewed together from the window
awnings which had been found in the
bungalow. These were rugged lateen
wise, with a long yard fashioned
from n bamboo pole. 1t was decided
to abandon the lookout on the rock,
and to concentrate the entire work
ing force on the boat. 4 long oar
was pivoted at the rear to serve as
a rudder, and an extra one was made
for use in case of accident. On the
bow they constructed clumsy but
strong windlass. as a capstan to lift
the anchor. A 50O-pound rock of ir-
regular, jagged formation. was pro-
vided as an anchor. Mr.. Kent sug-
gested the use of the gold images
for this purpose, but was greeted
with so firm refusal from, Simon
Pence that he was overruled.
On Tuesday General Superintcnd-
ent Vincent announced that they
had overlooked the fact that Nom
day was recognized in al civilized
upon investigation that the table and
chamber linen needed cleaning. He
was reluctant to assign anyone to
this duty, but offered his services, if
he could have an assistant Mr..
Rockwell promptly volunteered.
They found '.big wash ahead of
them, but tackled it with cheer and
energy. There were no tubs in the
bungalow. but there were plenty of
largs casks. which when cleaned,
served as well. Sidney Hammond
succeeded in making two fairly ef-
fective washbords with rabbet

mortised ana pinned it together that
it could Withstand any ordinary
strain. Every five feet it was braeed
with cross timbers. This framework
was constructeds on logs which
served as@rollers. They floored it
over with the seasoned timber which
had been found back ofSthe store
house. The cracks were caulked with
fiber from the cocoa palm. and
smeared with pitch, which was found
in abundance in resinous. trees. Upon
this foundation they erected the
framework for hull five feet in
depth, and then rolled the struc-
ture into the lake.
i. Sylvester Vincent solicited the
honor oof naming the boat. He ar
gued that he was the youngest mem
ber of the party and. the most in.
noceRt. His request was granted,
and he took his position at the for
ward end of the craft. In one hand
he held a quart bottle of mineral
water, while with the other he elung
to one of the uprights. At a signal
from Mr.. Carmody the blocks be-
meath the rcllers were knocked out
and the scow started down the incline.
There was a four foot. drop from
the rock to the water. With in
creasing momentum the structure
rolled down the slanting. surface.
9When the center passed the edge of
the rock, the forward end diyed. At
that instant the alert Vincent
smashed the bottle against the up

The bow went Is feet under water
and l.. Sylvester Vincent went with
it. In the yeast of wave and foam
Mr.. Vincent rose to the surface near
the center OF the raft. He was
badly disorganized, and for a mo-
ment sputtered and gasped for
breath. But he was soon :on his
feet and was. game to the core. The
raft was hundred yards from
Talk about your toboggan
slides!" shouted Vincent, as he
raised the broken bottle in the air.
"That beats Coney Island. I name
thee Helen Carmodyi."
'Hold on there!" yelled Mr.. Kent.
"You named that boat The Jump
+ ing Jupiter before you went below.
Stick to- your first name, or you will
queer the ship. The Jumping Jupi-
ter is good name"
Mr.. Carmody laughed uproariously.
You gentlemen planned to pay

THE TESTERS.

The jester mounted to the throne,
The while did sleep the king
'A monarch now am t. he said,
And lightly did he sing:
Now bring to me my ermine robes
And bring my crown to me,
And take this cap and take these bells
To his great ma ajeSty."
The courtiers did as they were bid,
And called the joke supreme,
They waited round until the king
Awoke from out his dreau-
Soon in he came arrayed in cap,
And shaking loud his bells;
And all the cour-sfers stood anear

s'And that L sat upon the throne
And ruled this broad cdomafn;
That while slept the good king came
And bore his crown to me,
And said: This day I thee invest
With all my majesty. g
..But when I awoke, sarrayed was I
In my old TESTERS suit,
This cap, these bells; and on my tongue
The same light bubble fruit

And. breaking all the rules.
OF procedure, the jester reigned,
A very prince of fools.
And none can say unto this day,
Who played the greater joke;
The jester with his golden crown
Seems burdened with yoke;
The king laughs now that wept before.
And seems slave set free,
And all the courtiers, puzzled, ask:

CURIOUS FIND IN MANILA.
Ancient Tome Written with Odd
Flourishes and Bearing Stamp
of Royalty.

Among the ancient documents com
piled by the Spanish authorities. ana
now in possession OF the American city
officials is very interesting old tome
written entirely by hand, many of its
pages bearing the royal seal and stamp,
with the customary proxy signatures of
the household, says the Manila Times.
As its frontispiece this old book.
which dates back to 1874, has a draw
ing of the arms of the city of Manila,
together with the kings gracious de-
cree that the city might assume and
bear forever the title of my noble and
always leal city" as the royal property.
With many a quaint old flourish and
sweep the decree is introduced and en-
belliShed. and in it the areas of the
city are described. following which de-
scription the frontispiece was carefully
drawn and linked by some long-passed
servant of his Catholic majesty

INFANT MORTALITY LARGE.
Exposure the Cause of Many Fata'
Affections Among the Children
of Poor Filipinos.

The board of health for the Philip
pine islands reports for November last
the deaths of 4O4 children under one
year of age, from causes variously re-
ported as convulsions, eclampsia and
tetanus, and adds:
~Of. these, 15s occurred within so days
after birth The more prominent symp-
toms presented by these three causes
largely resemble. each Sother' and it Is
believed that the latter are often con
founded with each other, particularly
since deaths of this class largely occur
in the absence of medical attendance
and the death certificates in such cases
must be made out on the basis Of the
symptoms given by members of the fam
lily. There is strong reason for belief
that the deaths occurring in the first
month after birth and attended by con-
yuIsions chiefly depend upon tetanus in
lection at the umbilfcus. 'due to the
handling Of the unhealed stump-of the
cord with unclean fingers and the COM
mon local practice Sof massaging the
abdomen of the new born. so
THE other deaths among infants, re-
ported as occurring from convulsions,
debility and bronchitis. probably result
in large part from exposure, due TO non
use of sufficient clothing depending upon
poverty or ignorance. The common
practice by the poorer classes CT allow
ing children to remain practically un-
clothed during the first few years of life
can scarcely fail to result in chilling
at night.or during stormy weather The
above causes of an unduly high infant
mortality should be largely preventatfe.
For their prevention the board OF heaIth
has prepared popular circular on the
treatment OF the new born and the care
and feeding of infants, and has also au-
thorized for the future the gratuitous
issue OF yard of flannel to each infant
whose parents are. fnaneially unable to
procure suitable clothing for its proper
protection against exposure during ohe
first few months of life"

L he yawl was pushed into the water
and loaded with as much OF the
freight as could safely be carried.
The remaining boxes were placed on
the raft. The beach being clear-the
tide was at its ebb-Mr. Haven and
Mr.. Morton walked along the cliffs
and back to camp Sidney rowed the
yawl and Vincent took charge of the
raft. Aided by a favoring breeze. he
made good time. The boxes were de-
posted on the deck of 'sThe Jump
ing Jupiter and opened. There was
lively curiosity concerning their con-
tents. The first box. yielded several
hundred pounds of choice cuts of
steak, and roasts of beef. The second
one contained an assortment of legs
of lamb and other fresh meats. These
were at once taken to the storehouse.
The meat was in excellent condition
and would keep fresh for many days.
There were crates filed with vege-
tables! lettuce, Strawberries, radishes,
and all the garden luxuries of that
season of the year 1t was a tempt
ing array, and L. Sylvester Vincent
was in his glory. Then there were
cases of champagne, box filed with
pickles, table sauces, oils, etc. There
was a supply of fresh meat and vege-
tables sufficient to last week or ten.
days, even if the castaways used
nothing from the boundless resources
of the island.
"a sirloin steak will taste good
again. said Mr.. Kent as he ham
mered the top from the last box. He
displayed to view a top layer. of the
latest magazines. Then he found
number of new books and a vaired as
sortment of May publications. In the
bottom of the box were copies of
newspapers. There was a rush for
these papers.
There were copies of the New
York papers dated from May I'd to
May 18th. also copies of New Or
leans papers as late as May 14th. In
addition to these were copies of Chi
cago and Philadelphia papers from
the time of their departure from New
York up to dates comparatively re-
cent.
.'sGentlemen," said Mr.. Rockwell,
after ten minutes had elapsed, t'we
have read enough to indicate that
none of our families has suffered
from death or serious illness up to
the time these papers were printed.
We can postpone a study of less i'm
portant matters until our mornings
work is done. Let US proceed to our
task and do our reading later
/: This suggestion was agreed to, and
Vincent carried the precious box to
the bungalow. The news from the
great outside world from which
they were separated acted as a slim
ulus to their energies. It was near
ly II o'clock before Mr. Carmody
gave the signal to cease, and they re-
turned to the big dining room, where
a tempting dinner awaited them.
