would stay right side up for awhile
longer at any rate, so he pulled out Of
the little cove and pointed the boats

white.
The first wave tripped over the bar
and whirled beneath him, sending the
dory high into the air and splashing it's
occupant with spray. The captain held
the boat stationary, waiting for the
second to break, and then, half rising,
put all his weight and strength on the
oars. The struggle had begun.
They used to say on board the Han
nah M. that the skipper never got rat
tied. The same cool head and steady
nerve that Josiah had admired when
the catboat threaded the breakers at
the entrance of the bay now served
the same purpose in this more tangled
and Infinitely more wicked maze. The
dory climbed and ducked, rolled and
slid, but gained inch by inch, foot by
foot. The advancing waves struck
savage blows at the bow, the wind did
its best to swing her broadside on. but

The statement that a man can exist

purely theoretical, inasmuch as no one

a length of time. But if the bread Is

In connection with the annual
spring exposition of the Pennsylvania
Academy of Fine Arts, which drew
only the other day to so successful
close, Philadelphians are hearing
story which is almost too good to be
true-though it arrives well vouched
for.
According to this the young and de-
cidedly pretty wife of one OF the I'M
successful applicants for admission to
the gallery's walls called upon GER
tain highly talented and well known
member of the jury to plead her hus-
bands cause. She was sincere; she
was eloquent; the great mans heart
was touched-but what could he do,
for he remembered only too well the
huge and glaringly colored canvas
which had been turned down. At
last he said:
Madam, go back and tell your good
husband that when he will send us in

as pretty and well painted, as you"

BEAUTY OF ARROW DANCE
II Is Led by Pueblo Maiden In Full
Indian Costume.

The Fleeka, or arrow dance, as prac-
ticed by the Pueblo Indians in Ari-
IONA, is very picturesque, says the De,
troit Free Press. One of the braves
is led up in front of his friends, who
are drawn up in two ranks. Here he
is placed on one knee, bow and arrow
in hand when the Malinchi, hand
somely attired young girl, commences
the dance. From her right wrist hangs
the skin of a silver-gray fox and bells
that jingle with every motion are
fastened to the end of her embroid-
cred scarf.
AT first the maiden dances along the
line in front, by her movements de.
scribing the warpath. Slowly, stead.
lily she pursues; then suddenly her
step quickens and she comes in sight
of her enemy, The brave follows her
with his eye and by the motion of his
head implies that she is right.
She dances faster and faster, then
suddenly sei2es the arrow from him
and by frantic gestures makes it plain
that the fight has begun in earnest
She points with the arrow, shows how
it wings its course, how the scalp was
taken and her tribe victorious. AS
she concludes her dance she returns
the arrow to the brave. Firearms are
discharged and the whole party wends
its way to the public square to make
room for the other parties, who keep
up the dance until dark.

If BILLY" Phelps Professor of Eng

At meeting of the Faculty a short

an error on the part of the typewriter
