proach to the next house and safety
was attained The mother, an inva-
lid, was told that the nurse had both
children safe. In the meantime the
flames had actually burnt through the
flooring and had seized on the drapery
of the bed where the apparently
doomed child lay sleeping. Terence,
having barked vigorously to no pur-
pose in the dark, now the room was
Lit up attempted to seize the child and
drag it from the bed. He could not
manage to lift the weight. Thereupon
he rushed to the cistern, jumped in,
and then hurried back to the child's
room. Springing on the bed, he shook
over the child the water which had
soaked into his coat during his INNER
sion in the cistern This he repeated
several times, at length succeeding in
putting out the flames, which at one
time had a good hold on the bed-cloth-
ing. When the fremen forced their
way into the room they found the
child practically uninjured. with the
dog mounting guard with his wet body
over her"
Showing the wonderful memory a
dog possesses, this story, sent by Mrs
Gerald Spencer, is very interesting:
"a gentleman had a Scotch terrier
which he took with him one spring
to some fishing he had in the North OF
Scotland, beyond Dingwall On the re
turn journey south the gentleman got
out at some small station, and the
dog, somehow, In the hurry OF getting
into the train again. was left behind
A kindly porter took it home, where
his children got fond of it, and il was
cared for and seemed happy, but
every day, quite punctually, through
the summer heat and the winter snow
the little terrier trotted down the
three parts of mile from the porter's
cottage to the station and met the
midday train. The people living nea,
said you could tell the time by seeing
this little dark gray dog hurryine
down the road every day. At last be

outdoor functions, If entertainments
given in this manner may be called By

with stir paper fish folded slightly
through the middle. There was a brass
ring in the head and the name of the
hsh was written underneath. Each
guest was given a small hook and line,
and each one was given the name of
a fish. There was Miss Cod" Mr..
Shark" etc. There was time limit,
and each person could retain only the
fish bearing his or her name; all 9TH
ers had to be returned to the water
in good condition.
There was the jolliest kind of a
time. This is fine scheme for chill
dren, and globe Of gold FISH might be
one prize.

lady's wearing apparel.
II. A word of farewell.
IL. A Christmas decoration and a
German word.
Is. What foreign nobleman like
to do.
IA. A flower with q commercial

DOG STORY.
Remarkable Way In Which Terence
Saved His Mistress.

II Is not strange that of no animal
in the world are SO many anecdotes
related as of the dog, for not only has
the dogs fidelity and sagacity passed
into proverb, but he of all the four
footed creation enjoys the most init
mate relationship with man. Horses
we may know and love; for the feline
creation we may have a deep-seated
fondness: but the horse does not join
US in our romps, he does not enter
our houses and lie down with US on
cur beds; the cat does not follow at
our heels through forest and meadow,
Or guard Us during our sleeping hours.

HAS WIDE EXPERIENCE
IMPORTANT POSTS HELD BY
REAR.ADMlRAL RRoWNsoN.
Naval Officer Who Resigned as Chief
Of Bureau Of Navigation Has
Won Praise Both az Execu-
tive and Fighter.

Washington Rear Admiral Willard
Herbert Brownson, who has resigned
as chief of the bureau of navigation
after difference of opinion with
President Roosevelt, is an officer who
has proved numerous times that he
combines both the qualities of fight
er and an executive. He has had "a
particularly wide experience and has
held some very important posts, both
ashore and afloat, in all of which he
has won praise from those who have
had occasion to pass upon his work.
Brownson. who attained the rank Of
rear-admiral in 1905, had just come
from command OF the Asiatic fleet
when he was appointed to the bureau
of navigation last spring.
AS a midshipman he headed dar-
ing cutting out" party which defeated
gang of Mexican pirates; as COM
mander he handled the cruiser Detroit
when 1t broke the Brazilian blockade
In 1894; as a captain he commanded
the Yankee during the Spanish-Ameri-
can war He has been tried equally
thoroughly in other lines of duty. He
has done scientific work for the coast
survey; he was in the photographic
Office for four years in important posi-
tons; he was commandant of cadets
at the naval academy and he was
superintendent of that institution from
1902 to 1904, when he made a record
for efficient work; he was sent abroad
in 1898 to purchase ships of war for
this country, doing his work so well
that he was thanked by the navy de-
partment.
One of Brownson's most interest
ing adventures came to him when, as
a midshipman, he was attached to the

was at that time 22 years old, having
been born at Lyons, N. Y. in 1S45. He
was graduated at the naval academy
in 1865. The Mohegan was cruising
near Mazatlan, Mexico, when the cit
liens of that port appealed to Capt.
Lowe, the commander, for protection
against crew Of pirates who were
killing innocent citizens, looting I'M
protected towns and committing dep
relations of frightful barbarity all
along the coast.
Capt. Lowe promised that he would
deal with the pirates, and he soon
thereafter located them in cluster OF
tropical lagoons. almost inaccessible
because Of dense vegetation. The
pirate captain had worked his vessel
into snug position. where he believed
himself safe from all attacks, having

gunshots was poured upon them from
the limbs of the trees near by. The
pirates had arranged an ambush in
this fashion, the whole crew being
under cover and invisible. Realizing
that he could do nothing In the way
Of reaching the pirates, Brownson's
quick mind instantly conceived plan
for defeating them. He ordered his
men below decks TO escape the pirates

his crew into his boat and pulled away

land without ammunition, food or
anything except the clothing they had

ship and they themselves were easily

scented Brownson with silver serv-
ice as an expression OF their thanks.
