flm-making, A little bull dog is an
important actor In the picture He runs
away with the ball and later shows his
disgust for the umpire By trying to
relieve him Of the seat of his pants

FORT MONROE, VA.

Specula ton as to what day the At
lantic feet would arrive was settled
when the cry arose, They're coming"
and the verandas were filled with eager
watchers. while along the water front
hundreds of people gathered to cheer
the ships which steamed majestically
into Hampton roads and dropped their
anchors. the flagship Connecticut and
the Georgia being anchored within hail
ing distance of the hotel. while the
other warships stretch across the water
in two lines, as far as the eye can see.
Now is the gayest time Of the whole
season. and never have there been as
many beautiful women stopping at this
delightful resort as now and every
night parties on board the various war
ships and at the hotel are given for
them.
On board the L. S. S. Franklin Mon
day night a dance will be given by
Capt. Reynolds and the officers of the
ship. Many of the young girls stopping
at the Chamberlin and those living at
Old Point will be the guests.
A number of midshipmen from the
various warships were entertained al
dinner Last night by Miss Eliza bet h
Mitchell at her home in Hampton.
In honor of the arrival of the Off
GERS belonging to the Atlantic fleet. a
dance was given Monday night at the
Chamberlin. and the ballroom was gay
with the uniforms of the navy men,
while the full dress of the officers of
the garrison and the beautiful gowns
of the women as they glided about
made a most striking picture The ball
Monday night was only a forerunner
Of the other balls given last week, there
being one every night, with the excep-
ton Of Thursday.
The Spielkartenfest, in which the So
ciety people of Norfolk took part, was
held during last week in that city, and
Thursday night many parties were made
up of the guests from the Chamberlin
to attend the performance, a special
boat being put on to convey the people

of seasons, has many friends at Old

The other woman made what seemed
under the circums tances, to be a sensible
remark:
Then why did you buy such a hat?"
"Lor, honey, that was only his way OF
showing off his pride. Why. II hadn't Of

Around the CITY

Five people out of twelve wear glasses.
A man in a cafe said so. He explained
to another man who was ''quick lunching'
at the same table that he got his average
by counting passengers who sat opposite
to him in cars The other man was too
busy boiling to contradict.
Yes, you'll find. if you keep tab on the
men, women and children you see in cars
that I'm right in my figures: and. more
than that, five people out of twelve have
defective ears. though they don't suspect
it as long as they are young and their
eyes are sharp. Lots of folks are called
absent minded or inattentive when the
truth is their hearing is impaired, and
they depend, without knowing it, on the
motion of peoples lips. When they have
to take to glasses and can no longer see
so keenly then they realize their short
coming in the matter of ears, though
there isn't one in five dozen who will own
to it. Why, if a fellow could invent
little something for the ears that wouldn't
attract attention they'd be as common as
eye glasses.
Beats me why fellow should be so
everlasting sensitive about being deaf

blind-off, are your"
The man who had been. boiling his pie

But, after all, 1T wouldn't be fair to
pect one man to know verything-seeing
he's only human.
A policeman stood on corner and
watched a man across the street. He
