The most imposing naval review which
has taken place in these waters since the
international rendezvous in 1898 oc-
Cured yesterday afternoon off Old Point,
when Hon. Paul Morton, secretary OF
the navy, ands Admiral George Dewey
inspected 20 ships belonging to the bat
tleship Caribbean, coast aud torpedo
squadrons. The Dolphin arrived from
Washington yesterday morning about Q
O'Clock and was saluted by the Kear-
sarge, flagship Of the battleships. The
dispatch boat dropped anchor and the
commanders of the various fleets pro-
ceeded aboard to pay their respects to
the distinguished reviewers. Later the
Dolphin passed between the long line of
ships, running near enough to each for
an inspection Of general appearance. At
1870 O'Clock yesterday afternoon the
Dolphin Steamed M the bay on her way
to Was ling,ou. Then there was gene
raj activity sboarl the vessels OF the
fleet, and by O'Clock there was hardly
a warship left in the Roads. They pass
ed out on their way To southern waters
for the winters maneuyers in the follow
ing or Ter: Batlleships Kearsarge, Ken
tucky, Illinois, Alabama, Massachusetts,
and Iowa; coast squadron, Texas, Flor
ida, Nevada; Carbide IN squadron, New
ark and Tacoma;torpedo- Goat destroyers,
Whipple, Macdonough, Stewart and

The Dolphin passed this city this
morning on her return to Washington.

NATURE SPARES
The stricken Rose From Grief.


What fortunate provision of nature
It is. that deprives the rose OF mental
suffering; for how poignant would be its
grief TO discover. in the height Of its
blooming glory. that a canker fed at its
heart, and that its beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever. Nature always
spares the suffering; she is veritable
store house of pleasing rewards for
those who seek her aid. In the years
gene by falling hair and grayness have
cast a gloom over the lives of thousands
of young women. but thanks to the in
vest gations Of scientists the true cause
of hair destruction Is now known to be
q germ or parasite that burrows into
the hair follicles. Newbro's Herpicide
absolutely destroys this germ, thus
permitting the hair to grow as ma
tire intended. Sold by leading drug
lists. Send 10c. in stamps for sample

Some oIdrIme Proverbs.

There is no doubt that much OF
what is called success in life depends
upon getting well into the groove"
and keeping there. Some unlucky
Englishman is responsible for the
saying. IF my father had made me
q halter. men would have been born
without heads" but this can scarcely
be called original, as an unfortunate
Arab. ages ago, declared "If were
to trade in winding sheets no one
would die" It is to men Of this stamp
the French apply the proverb, Falls
on the back and breaks his nose;" the
Italians, He would break his neck
over a stew" "Misfortunes seldom
come singly" has many equivalents in
all languages. TIL. Spaniards say,
Welcome. misfortune, II thou comest
Alone" and whittier goest thou, mis-.
fortune? To where there is mne"

Lord paihousie Brought Famous Stone
From india to England.
lord Dalhousie's name will always
be intimately associated with the
famous Kohinoor diamond, and the
story OF how he brought 1t from India
to England has been retold In one of
the new books. In 1849, after the
second sikh war. Dalhousie coniiscat-
ed the stone on account of the heavy
debt owing the East India company
by the Lahore state. Dalhousie sent
1t to Queen Victoria. Great care had
to be exercised in carrying 1t across
India. THE tassels Of the armlet, in
which the diamond was set." says the
account, had been cut of to dimin-
ish the bulk and Lady Dalhousie had
inclosed the armlet with its Jewel in
leather bag, this again being sewed
into belt lined with chamois leather,
which Dalhousie wore by night and
day. Two dogs were chained to the
governor generals camp bed and no
one but his wife and Capt. Ramsey
were in the secret Of the jewels con-
cealmept."

Little kindnesses,


II you were toiling up a weary hill.
Bearing a load beyond your strength to
bear,
straining each nerve untiringly, and still
stumbling and losing foothold here and
there,
And each one passing b, would do SO
much
As give one upward lift and go their
way,
Would not the slight reiterated touch
OF help and kindness tighten all the
day?
II you were breasting a keen wind,
which tossed
And buffeted and chilled you as you
strove.
TIL. baffied and bewildered quite, you
lost
The power to see the way. and aim to
move.
And one. If only for a moments space.
Gave you a shelter from the bitter
blast.
Would you not find It easier to face
The storm again when the brief rest
was past?
tuere is no little and there is no much.
We weigh and measure and define In
vain.
A look. word. light responsive touch.
Can be minister of joy to pain.
A man can die of hunger walled In gold,
A crumb may quicken hope to stronger
breath,
And every day we give or we withhold
Some little thing which tells for life
or death.

SPECIAL SESSION OVER A BUG

Little Boil WeeviI Has Stirred Up
Much Trouble In the South.
A little bug, almost too small for in
dividual notice. In taking up the time
OF several great states, and has even
caused the Louisiana legislature to
be called Into special session. This
little boil weevil seems a very small
matter to the people of the country
at large, but to cotton growers its COM
ing is fraught with prodigious evil.
For years 1t has been the boast Of
Texas that she could raise cotton
enough to supply the world. and she
lid appear to be satisfied with raising
about a third of the American staple.
But this little weevil crawled across
the border from Mexico and has
swept the cotton fields like a pesti-
lence. Each year the domain of tho
weevil Is spreading, and its kind is
multiplying by billions. No effective
means has yet been found to check
the spread Of the pest. and the entire
cotton belt is alarmed.
The Louisiana Special Commission
has recommended to the legislature
that a non-cotton growing belt be
created between that state and Texas,
by which 1t is expected to starve out
the weevil and stay its progress north.
the weeVil and stay its further prog
ress northward.
Already the loss by this insect In
probably $25,O0O,OOO, and experts Of
the national md state governments
are doing everything in their power to
devise some means to check this Tex.
