Flashes Patriotic Words to Seven Seas
by Wireless.
Washington, Dec. 26.-Admiral
Dewey's Christmas greeting to the Of
flcers and men of the navy, bespeaking
la united stand for the good of the
country and the service, was communi-
Gated to the officers and men aboard
the vessels throughout the world
wherever they could be reached by
telegraph.
To the men Of the navy along the
Atlantic coast there was also sent
Christmas greeting by means of wire
less telegraph, which incidentally
served as an elaborate and practical
test Of this auxiliary Of the naval SER
vice.
The wireless messages were sent by
direction of Admiral Manney. chief Of
the bureau Of equipment, and the re-
suits were most satisfactory to them.
The messages containing the greetings
were sent out Sunday from the wire
less station at the Washington navy
yard and were relayed from place to
place.
Fairy responses came from the Of
fees nearest Washington, but before
midnight many of the stations had
replied. including New Orleans and Co.
lon and San Juan, the Colon reply
coming by way of Guantanamo. Prac-
tically no work was done yesterday on
the ships anywhere.
| Liberal shore leave had been grant
ed to the officers and men, while the
dinner served aboard ship was under
the usual custom characteristic of the
Christmas season. Many Of the vessels
captains joined with the officers in the
wardrooms in celebrating the day.
On the ships the only work required
was the necessary cleaning and
by 9 o'clock in the morning most Of lie
officers and men were left free to cele-
brate as they chose.
Liberal shore leave had been grant
ed, according to custom, and as many
as could be spared from a ship went
ashore. Thousands of pounds of tur-
key, cranberry and plum pudding and
other things that make up the Christ
mas dinner aboard the vessels had
been laid by, and were served in
generous fashion on board each ship.
The men had dinner at noon and
the officers in the evening. On many
lships the captain was invited to
dine in the wardroom and join the
Iofficers In merrymaking.

Sumpter Valley Town Practically
Wiped Out.
Baker City, Ore, Dec. 25.-Early
this evening fire started in the large
frame hotel at Upton, so miles south
west of here on the Sumpter Valley
railway. A terrific wind and snow
storm was raging at the time and in
a few minutes the flames had been
carried to the store buildings on the
opposite side Of the street.
Two stores, two saloons, two va
cant buildings and the postoffice were
consumed. This practically wiped out
the town. Telephone communication
has not been reestablished, but the
railroad will later send out a special
to bring in the homeless people to
|Sumpter or to this city.
The loss will probably be $4,000.

Publish Financial Statements

From the Lakewood Citizen.
The financial statement of each and
every township should be published in
some legitimate county newspaper, no
matter what paper. 1t should appear
in a newspaper, for the reason that in
a newspal er it is preserved, and the
files of a newspaper are always pre-
served and get-at-able for future refer
ence, while in pamphlet form it is a
rare thing to find one after a month or
two. there is too much carelessness in
the matter of preserving township rec
ords of every character. The only safe
way to keep track of township financial
reports is through the county papers
that are kept on file in the newspaper
offices, the public libraries and the
county clerks office. This will apply
to all townships and it is so recognized
by the best authorities in all the town
ships. Too much publicity cannot be
given financial statements. Lakewood
township uses its papers to promulgate
the business of the township but there
are a number of townships that do not.

Young Irishman Deceived In
Beauties OF South America

New York, April IA city resi-
dent who owns a sugar plantation and
mill on the Amazon River, in South
America, is looking for a new engineer
to take the place of one Murphey, who
deserted his post a month after his APP
pointment.
Murphy, a young Irishman, had
been earning 81 a day The mill owner
offered him S25, but Murphy hesitated.
"The Amazon, you know, Murphy,
is the largest river in the world, "quoth
the mill owner enthusiastically to the
engineer, as the two sat in the mill
mans office.
There the flowers are blooming al
ways, and no wind blows but brings
its burden of sweet perfume"
"Me fer tn %per-rfume!o
"And the gentle savages there W uld

peeping at you.n
"Oi will take to the forest, an Oh
have loved the fairies.n
SO the mill owner sailed away, TAX
ing Murphy with him. About a month
ago the mill man came back. The
other day some one walked into his
office, saluted (for Murphy had once
been a soldier and sat down,
"Oi've tn honor to report, Sir, thot

from any other place | have ever visit
ed, that I shall always remember it
for the magnificent irregularity of its

its concrete buildings, the constant re-
minders of Moorish and Spanish archi-
lecture, the beautifully conglomerated
mass of old world crudities, systematic

AN OCEAN TRIP
From st. Augustine l went to Savan-
nah April s., leaving the latter city
early in the evening on the steamship
Allegheny for Philadelphia, arriving
at the latter place April s. The dis
lance 10y water is 702 miles. The aver
age run cover 81 hours from port to
port. After leaving Savannah river
and the land behind we saw no signs
of land, or life, except sea gulls and
ducks, until nearly noon the next day
when we saw Frying Pan Light ship
and a passing steamer. Fortunately
the heavy wind was nearly fair or we
should have had a rough trip. As it
was two thirds of the 81 passengers
were seaslck, and several times during
the meal hour, nearly everything on
tie tables was thrown to the floor
when the vessel would get in the
troughs of the sea.
[ thoroughly enjoyed the ocean trip
although the ship is far from being the
floating palace one might expect to
see after perusing the literature sent
out by the Merchants and Miners
Transportation Co. The menu was
elaborate enough, but for the most
part poorly cooked. | would much
prefer straight oleomargarine to the
meal The officers of the vessel are
gentlemanly and doubtless make the
bet of conditions and accommodations
beyond their control. The steamships
sailing from New York for Savannah
and Jacksonville are said to offer
much letter service than the Philadel-
phia line.
On the steamer | met several Jersey
people, among them John Townsend,
of Cape May, a cousin of Seth Town
send, who was a long time resident of
Elmer. John Townsend had been in
Jacksonville for several months. In
the thirty-one days away from Elmer
| travelled 200 miles, but | met so
many people who had sometime either
lived in South Jersey or had acquain-
tances here, that | did not at any time
feel that | was among strangers.
The Florida climate is a delightful
change to northern people, but | think
| should get more tired of the contin-
uous warmth year after year than of
jerseys chanpeable weather. Many
persons can prolong life by adopting
Florida as a place of winter abode, but
those who go there to earn a living
must work as hard for it as in Jersey.
The water is uniformly poor. AS a
rule the only choice is between cistern
water and the sulphur water from ar
tesian wells. The latter may have a
beneficial medicinal effect for a time
; but | should prefer water with a diff.
ferent taste and odor as a steady drink.
