Among those who carry revolvers are
one or two well-kHown milliners. women

Good Advice to the Commodore.

a story is told at the expense Of Com

was in command of the navy yard at
Portsmouth, n. II.
1t appears that laSorer. a new APP

his foreman making some lcnairs on the
sidewalk in front Of the officers quarters.
At that time it was not the practice as
now, for officers TO wear their uniforms
when about the yard, and the commodore
not having his on this day, it was not
surprising that the laborer did not recog-
nize him nor pay any attention TO his
criticism or suggestions Of the way to CO
the work
This nettIed the commodore and pro-
