Admiral Dot,wbose baptismal name is Leopold Kahn, has disposed of the hotel he has conducted in White Plains for the last sixteen years, re- tiring with a comfortable fortune. It is estimated that the N'dry land Ad- miral," who was famed midget in trifle more than quarter of a mil in real estate transactions, the trifle being around s21,000.
 Kahn was lifted out of obscurity in San Francisco in 1871 by P. T. Bar mum, the famous Bridgeport show man, and as midget, under the rame of Admiral Dot, he divided hon. ors with Tom Thumb when they tinent. He was with MT. Barnum for fifteen years and afterward had the principal part in the production of Gulliver's Travels.
 In his day he was considered the foremost, and about the first, hlipu- to MT. Barnum, with whom he was always a prime favurite. On numer- ouS occasions the veteran snowman to display his fatherly feeling for the little fellow, whom he took away from home when he was but seven years old, would pick him up and carry him for blocks. The Admiral takes a keen delight in recounting an experience in which the kind hearted circus owner figured during a severe storm in 1884.
 The midget had a horror of storms, which often 1evelled the city of tents and killed men and animals. The show was in a New England coast city when a gale suddenly swept down, and most of the smaller tents were laid upon the ground. Barnum had the famous white elephant with the show at that time. He ran into the enagerie tent and gave orders for the immediate removal of the elephant. Then he hurried across the circus lot until he came upon the trembling liliputian in the side show. and taking him up in his arms fled to a place of safety. It was not ac- complished a minute too soon, for the whole of his tented organization was stretched across the ground.
 The little man of White Plains has been a mighty factor in the town where he settled down, grew foot

FIREWORKS FOR THE FOURTH. Get in Line and Make Your Selection.

For the benefit of the public, we are going to give you some idea of the many noisy articles on the mar ket that you can get to celebrate with this year. Now if you want a sane Fourth go for evening fireworks. There is not much danger from these and what is there that pleases every body like sky rockets, Roman candles, balloons, etc You can get any size of rocket you wish from a two ounce to six pound. A four pound rocket is considered about the right size for exhibition work and they come in such a variety of effects, such as willow tree. parachute, hang ing chain Japanese flash. arc light, twinkling star, cascade and about 12 ether effects and they are grand. Roman candles are always sought after and if you fire them by punch ing a hole in the ground and placing and get better results than by hold ing them in your hand. Star mines are very pretty and safe. You can place them on the ground and they start off with Roman candle effect and at the last there is a bursting of stars. On this order of mines there is quite variety under names of Devil Among the Tailors," Dragons Nest" "Saxcissions,'' Bouquet of Roses," Jewel Cannonades,' Jack in the Box and others. One of the most pleasing sights on the evening of the Fourth is to see a nice large paper balloon lighted and sailing over your house. It makes one wish they had one to set up. It is great sport and interesting for young and old to come ins fancy shapes, in the form of Mrs. Hooligan, Teddy Bears, fish, pig, elephant and regular shape from two and one-half feet high to 12 feet Now there are a great many other novel, ties for evening display, but the above articles are old stand-bys and no danger to speak of in firing. A few new ones such as tea plants, corn flower, penny jack, yew trees, chaS- CTS, Mt. Pee1e, hornets nest Gee Whiz, and the good old House that Jack Built, grasshoppers, snakes nests, pin wheels, etc. Among the novelties there are some new ones. Day Go Bomb, sun flower. Pike'S Peak, magic fountain and the good old Lighthouse, Vesuvius fountain, chasers, etc. Now speaking about thechildren; they of course have got to have some fire crackers. There is the common cracker at three cents a pack, but these are not very good as only about one-half go off. The Mandarin cracker is the real thing. cracker: very loud for so msaIl e cracker In the way of salutes which make a very loud report there are the Out of Sight" Polly Big B." ''Hooligan,'' McGinty," and Billy Possum" are new this year. The girls friend, the torpedo, are about the same as other years; the Golden Dragon in packages being in the lead.

and amassed fortune. He bears the distinction of being the smallest Elk in the world. He has been an officer in the White Plains Elk lodge for the last five years. But the most picturesque position he occupies, and witha1 his prOudest boast, is that of a fireman of the White Plains Inde- pendent Engine Company. He has a regulation freman'S uniform and more than once has distinguished himself fighting. the flames. He has several times squeezed through tight place where a man of larger size could not have gone.
 About twenty years ago Mir. Kahn married Lottie SwartwOod, a profes- sional midget. of Van Etten, N. Y. She was four feet one inch in height, or just one inch taller than Admiral Dot. When he went on the platform feet in height. His parents were of normal size and Mrs. Kahn's father was more than six feet in height. The Kahns have two children-Hazel thirteen years old. Both of the chil- dren are a head and shoulder taller than their parents. The last photo graph they had made was four years ago. when the children were a little taller than their parents.
 MT. Kahn says he has received of fers to assist in the management of three big hotels in New York, but does not want to remain in business longer. He says he fully intends to have a fortune of s1.000,000 before he dies and that hereafter he will direct his energies in the real estate business. Not 8 little of the worry he is encountering now since his re- tirement is at the hands of automo- bile agents. Several large firms have made him tempting offers to build a machine for him on small lines, just adequate for himself and wife.
 His leisure time, he says, he will devote to travelling over the United States. His first trip will be to the E1ks' National Convention in Detroit July 10, and his wife will accompany him. MT. Kahn sold his hotel, which comprises forty-eight rooms, a bowl ing alley, ballroom, banquet hall and cafe, to Joseph G. Knapp. of White Plains. MT. Kahn Is the largest hold CT of property in White Plains, own ing solid business block, besides several dwellings. He is forty-six years old and his wife is two years his junior.

THE U S. GOVERNMENT in it's Pure Food Law does not 'fndorse" or guarantee" any preparation, as some manufacturers in their advertise ments would make it appear. In the case of medicines the law provides that certain drugs shall be mentioned on the labels. if they are ingredients of the preparations. Ely's Cream Balm
 the well-known family remedy for cold in the head, hay fever and nasal ca tarrh, doesn't contain a single injur- ious drug, so the makers have simply to print the fact that it complies fully with all the requirements of the law.
