Only Once In a Lifstime.

It was a pitiful mistake, an error
sad and grim. I waited for the rail.
way train; tho light was low and dim.
It came at last, and from the car there
stepped a dainty dame, and, looking
up and down the place, she straight
unto me came. "Oh, Jack!" she cried,
"oh, dear old Jack!" and kissed me as
she spake; then looked again, and,
frightened, cried, ooh, what bad mis-
take!" I said, "Forgive me, maiden
fair, for am not your Jack; and as
regards the kiss you gave, I'll straight
way give it back" And since that
night I've often stood upon that plat
form dim, but only once in mans
whole life do such things come to
him.

NAVAL WINTER MANEUvERs
Will Include Usual Cruise to Carri-
bean-Adn,. Dewey May Inspect Fleet.

Washington. Nov. 24.-The general
board has been holding daily sessions,
this week, presided over by Admiral
Dewey, the most important subject un-
der consideration being the report of
Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans. COM
mander-in-chief of the North Atlantic
feet outlining his program for the
winter maneuvres in the Caribbean Sea
This will, in general. be approved by
the board, certain changes of minor i'm
portance having been agreed upon.
1t is intended that the first squadron
and the fourth division Of the third
squadron shall rendezvous at Hampton
Roard early in January and proceed to
the Csrribtan Sea. Where. tha drills will
take place, If his health permits Ad-
niral Dewey will go south during the
exercises, making the cruise probably
on the Mayfiower which will make the
Washington navy yard headquarters
for the winter. The annual record tar
get practice will be held in March.
The department has been anxious to
find locality better suited to the prac-
tice than Pensacola, where the water
IS quite rough. The equipment for the
practice, is, however, being assembled
on the Arethusa at Pensacola and
probably the practice will again be held
there next spring unless a more suita-
Bile place can be found in the meantime.
Charleston, ). g., will be the head
quarters for the coast squadron this
winter, and Pear Admiral Dickins COM
manding, will assemble the ships there
the latter part of this month.

U. s. DOCK ~. D. DEWEY"
Will be Feature in Remarkable Four
Months Voyage to Manila.

Washington, Nov. 24.-.J. d. Wood, a
tug master of Norfolk, has just signed
a contract with the navy department
to go out to Manila on the ID. D. Dew
ey' on one of the most remarkable
cruises of modern times.
The ID. D. Dewey means the big
steel floating dry dock, now at Solo
mons Island in Chesapeake Bay which
is destined to dock the largest ships
of the American naval force in the far
East if this great structure can ever be
successfully piloted through four seas,
the 14,O00 miles lying between Ches-
peake BAY ana Manila Bay. Mr. Wood
is to live aboard the dock during the
voyage. His vessel will be SO stable in
the heaviest weather that ii may be
possible to play billiards aboard, ac-
cording to some officers, and he will
have plenty of good company and solid
comfort.
There is permanent crew of eight
who will be reinforced by % sailors who
will be discharged when they reach
Manila. There will be small boats and
wireless telegraph installation. AS a
rulder cannot be used the dock is to
be held on its course solely by the tow
ing power of the three great colliers,
Glacier, Caesar and Brutus, the whole
under command of Capt. Fulam, u. S.
n. Each of the colliers will have its
own wireless plant so that they may
freely communicate with the dock and
with each other.
The towing line will be one and half
miles long, length regarded as neces-
sary to guard against sharp strains in
Il heavy sea and even with this great
towing, bits with pneumatic cushions
have been placed on the golfers to re-
duce the chance Of breaking the cables,
the largest steel ropes in the world,
outside of some of the great suspension
bridges. Some of the most competent
naval officers believe that the Dewey
can be toWed at q rate of about 100
miles n day and allow about three or
four months for the trip, via the Suez
canal.

ENORMOUS GAINS SHOWN
In U. S. Commerce the Last Year
Will Reach $125,oo0, 900 Mark.

WASHINGTON, Nov 24.-The commerce
of the United States with its non-coh-
tiguous territority in 1905, seems hkeiF
to exceed by many million dollars tha'
Of any preceding year. according u :.
statement issued by the department. vi
commerce and labor. The bureau
rine-ronths statement endlils VIII
Scp;ember. shows that the shipments
from the United States to us hoi-coli-
tieaous territority amounted 10 S"o''o--
IA against $29,929079 in the CORE
snopding months OF the preceding year
and that the shipments of merchandise
to the Tinted States from its non-con-
tio,ous territory in the same period,
arnounted to $3.50, $50. against SAT ILL.,
eoS in the corresponding months of the
preceding year.
These figures relate to merchandise
only. and do not include the gold and
silver of which the shipments from
Alaska to the United States were only
100000 of gold produced in that ter
ritory and $5,500.000 of foreign gold
shipped from Alaska being presumely
that originating in British territory ad-
jacent thereto. In the merchandise
shipped from Alaska to the United
States there is a falling off of little
less than $2,0O0000 compared with the
previous year.
In shipments from the United States
there was an increase of nearly 50 ,000,
900 to Alaska. of over SO 200. 600 to Porto
Rico. about s1,O0O,OOO to the PHILIPPINES
and nearly $1.O0O,OOO to the Hawaiian
islands. In shipments from the nom
contiguous territory to the United
States there was an increase of about
$4,000 600 from Porto Rico of over $4,-
100000 from the Philippines and of
about S12,00000O from the Hawaiian
islands.
The estimate is made that the total
commerce with the non-contiguouS ter
ritory for the entire year of 1905. will
approximate S125 100000.
