Riohf ON the lob.

At the time Dewey captured the
Philippine Islands there was only one
lighthouse in operation in the Philip
pine waters-that on Cape Melville.
Balabac island, south of the island Of
Palawan and marking the entrance be-
tween the China sea and the Sulu sea.
AS is the custom in time Of war. the
Spanish authorities had ordered all
lighthouses to have their lights extin-
guished when it was discovered that
an attack on Manila was threatened
by the .merican navy. 1t appears that
this order was carried out at all other
places except at the lighthouse men
toned above, where the order was
never received. The keeper of this
light kept his light burning up to June
80. 1899, without assistance, and was
paid for his services from May /, 1899.

Tho "key Of the Mediterranean" Has
Had Stormy History.
England has been in possession OF
the rocky promontory of Gibraltar
since 1904. From that time to this 1.
has been a crown colony under the ad-
ministration of a governor. By reason
of its important Strategical position II
Is called the key of the Mediterra
mean"
Gibraltar has had stormy history
In I'll the rock was taken by the Arab
chief Tarik. who called it Jebel-al-
Tarik (Hill If Tarik) and built for
tress on the promontory. Part of these
ruins are still extant. In 1909 it was
taken by the Castilians, only to be re-
captured by the Moors in 1888. 1t was
held by them until 1862. Following the
taking and sackipg of Gibraltar in
works were built there by order Of
Charles v.
In 1904 the promontory was cap
tured by a combined force under Sir
George Rookie and the Prince of Hesse-
Darmstadt, fighting for the Archduke
Charles of Austria. The moment it fell
into their hands the British admiral
threw Off the alliance with the Aus
TRANS and took complete possession OF
the works.
British possession since that time
has been unbroken. although 1t was
under Spanish siege for nearly three
years and eight months, beginning In
1879. Twice the garrison was on the
point of falling because of the starva-
ton of its defenders.

shipments were heavy and largely in
excess of the forecast, with the large

BALL OF FIRE
In THE HEAVENS

FORSYTH, Ca, July 1.-The peo-
pie in the western part of Monroe
county are again making desperate ef-
forts to solve the mystery of the ghost
like ball Of fire which has been seen in
a field on the plantation of James
Holloway for the past 80 years.
The phenomenon has puzzled the
community and people from other sec
lions who have seen it. The farm is
near Dyas. Passers by the field may
observe a ball of fire about the size
of a baseball from IL o'clock at night
till about daybreak on almost any dark
night of the year. Though very bright.
It does not cast any reflection, and IS
not illuIninatins-
.iAll efforts to approach the strange
object have been fruitless though many
such attempts have been made by re-
liable people. 1t always disappears on
approach, to make its appearance a
hundred yards or more away.
The ball is generally to be noted
about 80 feet in the air, but it is some
times to be seen dancing along just
above the surface of the earth. The
explanation that il is a "jack-o-lan-
tern" will not hold. for the field is en-
tirely too high for the presence OF
phosphorus vapors.
The strange appearance has been
confined to a 16-acre field for all the
years that it has been known, and
has never been seen elsewhere. Horses
and mules appear to dread It almost
as much as the supernatural, and run
aways are common occurrences when
teams are driven by after II o'clock at
night.
The people of the Dyas section
would like very much to have the
phenomenon explained and to have its
cause removed.

HINTS BY MAY MANTON
DAINTY FROCK OF
EMBROIDERED BATISTE

Embroidered materials never we're
slore beautiful than at this season
Ind never were they made up more
ittractively. Here is an exceedingly
aintv frock that means very little
labor for the making, yet is really
Elaborate and dressy in effect. Ihe
lkirt includes two straight founces
,ver a gored foundation and the
blouse is made of two strips of the
lame material 1t makes its own
hnish and the only other trimming re-
hurried is the little banding on the
heck and the front of the blouse. The
act that sleeves and main portions
5f this latter are cut in one also adds
10 the simplicity Altogether, the
slress is one Of the prettiest and most
desirable possible. The square neck
fashionable and desirable whenever
I is becoming. but this blouse can be
made with a yoke, If better liked, con-
sequently, 1t suits all needs. The skirt
also can be cut either to the high or
natural waist line, but the high waist
line is a little to be preferred. With
fhis dress is worn a girdle OF cora,
but sashes are very smart and very
nretty and a sash of black velvet rib
hon laid in narrow folds and arrang-
ed over the upper edge of the skirt,
then bowed at the back or knotted at
the left of the front, would make a
very attractive finish of a different
sort. Ribbon sashes are worn also
and are exceedingly pretty as well as
girlish. The dress is a good one for
small women as well as for young
girls.
For the 16 year size the blouse will
require 2 yards of bordered material
90 inches wide, with l IL yards Of
handing 2 inches wide; forth skirt
will be needed A IL yards of tiouncing
