ADMIRAL DEWEY
IS OVER SEVENTY
OLDEST OFFICER IN UNITED
STATES NAVY FINDS PLENTY
TO KEEP HIM YOUNG.

WASHINGTON, Dec 25.-AdmiraI
George Dewey, the only full admiral
in the American navy, will be seventy
years old tomorrow, having been born
December 26, 1887, in Montpelier, Vt.
Ten years ago. early in the morning OF
the first of May, George Dewey, then
merely a commodore, made history
and wrote his name in the list of the
worlds great naval commanders. On
that day he sailed into Manila bay and
with his little squadron of warships
sent the Spanish fleet to destruction.
Admiral Dewey is the only living
naval officer serving his country who
will remain on the active list until he
wished to apply for retirement and
thus be able to point with pride to an
unusually long and uninterrupted SER
vice. He began his remarkable career
early, and could he live his life over
again, he says he would not change
the course it has taken. After a pre-
paratory training at the Norwich Mill
tary Academy, experimenting the val
| liable personal instruction of his faith
| er, who was one of the best known
| physicians of his day, young Dewey
entered the Naval Academy at the age
of sixteen. Immediately upon leaving
the academy, four years later, in 1858,
he was ordered to active service and,
| lacking only a few months space OF
time, he has now been fifty-three
years in the navy. Admiral Dewey
says that, excepting the too close prox-
unity of the bullets, the most inter-
esting training he received after leay-
ing school was under Admiral Farra-
gut, from 1861 to 1868, in the Mis-
sissippi river squadron.
Admiral Dewey at 70 is mentally
and physically strong. He finds a good
deal in life to keep him young and to
all appearances he is no older today
than he was when he fought at Ma
Mia bay ten years ago, and the vigor
with which he commanded proved that
he was much younger than his years

here for awhile in the Mohican, as
commander, during the troublous times
of 1898. He was a rOyalist sympathizer
and was, consequently, out of favor
local American society. While attempt

he fouled the propeller and ran her
aground. A boats crew from the Jap

10000, THE zoos NEW
CLOWN.
Famous Amusement Resort In
Baltimore Ali The Rage.

With the advent of the New Year there
was a complete change of animal sets and
trainers at the Zoo on North Avenue and
Oak street, and the saying nothing old but
the name,'' can we'll be applied to the per-
formance. The Royal Hungarian Band re.
Gently inaugurated its winter season at the
Zoo rink. The "a hour skating race was a
great success. Every Monday night is racing
night and any local skaters desiring to com.
pete for the handsome gold medals should
send their names to Mr.. Oscar Dane, manager,
skating races, Zoo, Baltimore, Md. Every
Tuesday is amateur night on the skates, which
spectators. A free moving picture show is
furnished On the spacious second floor. Down
stairs, in the Zoo, the cynosure OF all eyes IS
the newly christened baby leopard Bonita, "
the account of which was published IN all the
papers in this country, on account OF the great
number of celebrities who witnessed the cere-
mony. Prof. Stadler, from the Hippodrome
in Paris has scored an emphatic hit by his
remarkable group of trained wild animals.
In fact the new show consists of some astound.
ing and thrilling demonstrations of the power
of mans mind over the ferocious wild beasts
of the jungle. The Zoos new funny clown IS
encouraged in his comical stunts with the
pigs and monkeys by enthusiastic applause
souvenirs are presented to the ladies and child
rem. Col. Mundy has recently appointed a
retinue of maids whose duty it is to chaperone
unattended ladies and children. The leaders
of Baltimore's 400, as we'll as prominent
citizens, can be found among the audience
nightly. The Zoo is recognized as one of the
sights of the town this season and visit to
Baltimore is not complete unless one has ex.
plored and witnessed the interesting and mirth
provoking features of the Zoo.
