TO HAVE BIG NAVAL PAGEANT
Vast concourse of Ships an Incident
of the Panama Canal
Opening.

The greatest naval pageant in the
history of the world will be the most
spectacular feature of the ceremonies
incident to the opening of the Panama
canal. The president has been au-
thorized by congress to invite all for
eign powers to participate in the
great naval parade, which will Insure
representation of every navy in large
numbers with its best ships.
The fleets will assemble in Hamp-
ton Roads, Va, and proceed up the
Chesapeake bay and Potomac river to
washington, where a formal call will
be made upon the president OF the
United States. On their return the
president will review the fleets from
his yacht, which will be stationed at
the Virginia capes; then this vast
armada will sail southwark and pass
through the Panama canal as part of
the official opening program.
BY no means the least interesting
part of the announcement is the con-
tinued cruise of the combined fleets
to San Francisco during the Panama
canal opening exposition. This will
furnish an attraction which no inter
national exposition has ever had.

LITTLE THINGS "MAKE" BOYS
Grandmother Tells the Youngsters the
Proper Thing to Do to Become
Known as Gentlemen.

Grandmother always knew just the
proper thing for boy to do, and some
times she would get her grandsons to-
gether, and, peering over the tops OF
her glasses severely, would say to
them:
Boys, if you want to be known as
little gentlemen remember that the
following things should be done:
HAT lifted in saying 'Good-by' OF
How do you dor
HAT lifted when offering a seat in a
car or in acknowledging a favor.
Keep step with any one you walk
with.
always precede lady upstairs and
ask her if you may precsde her in
passing through a crowd or public
place.
Hat off the moment you enter a
street door and when you step into a
private hall or office.
Let lady pass first always, unless
she asks you to precede her.
I'm the parlor stand till every lady
Ia the room is seated, also older peo-
pie.
"Rise If a lady comes in after you
are seated and stand until she takes a
seat.
Look people straight in the face
when speaking or being spoken to.
LET ladies pass through door first,
standing aside for them.
In the dining room take your seat
after ladies and elders.
Never play with knife. fork or
spoon.
do not take your napkin in bunch
in your hand.
49, Eat as fast or as slow as others
and finish the course when they do.
Rise when ladies leave the room
and stand till they are out. If all go
out together gentlemen stand by the
door till ladies pass.
Special rules for the mouth are
that all noise in eating and smacking
OF the lips should be avoided.
Cover the mouth with hand or nap
kin when obliged to remove anything
from it.
use your handkerchief unobtrusive-
ly always.
always knock at any private room
door,"

TAPPING rebellion.
In the newspaper dispatches the
word general has been placed in
quotation marks, and this gallant
commander has been alluded to as
soldier of fortune" That he may
have been in one sense Is true, but in
the sense that he rendered a great
yet helpless country the most fnesti-
mable of services he is entitled to
rank among the great commanders of
his time.
Frederick Townsend Ward was
born in Salem, Mass, In 1881. He
became a ship broker in New York,
but appeared to begin his career Of
worldwide fame in Shanghai in 1860.
The TAPPING rebellion had broken out
and Ward went to the government
with the proposition that If the gov
eminent would give him $4,000 he
would capture tie town of Sun
Kiang, near Shans hal, then held by
the rebels.
The money was promised, and in
a short time he gathered together a
miscellaneous band Of two hundred
foreigners and with them went out
and overthrow five thousand rebels.
He received his $4,000 and was
made a mandarin of t. fourth class.
Ward was at first distrusted by
the British officers in command of
Shanghai, but finally was permitted
to cooperate with them and through
his energy succeeded in clearing up
the country for 40 miles or more
around the city.
He disappeared completely from
sight for a time, and turned up again
at the head of three Chinese regi
ments. He took the field again, his
army was augmented from day to day,
and he won a succession of victories
which made him a mandarin of the
first class, and gave him the remark
able title of admiral general'-the
highest the grateful Chinese could be-
stow on him.
The civil war had then broken out
in the United States, and Ward is re.
ported to have offered Secretary Bur
lingame $4,000 for the Union cause,
and to have prepared to start home.
But he was shot in 1862, and the Chin
csc not only built a monument over
his grave, but memorialized in stone
the scenes Of several of his victories.
Probably because Of his intention to
come to the United States he had
converted his fortune, whatever 1t
was, into drafts and negotiable secur-
tiles. They were on his person when
he was killed, and are supposed to
have been stolen by an Englishman.
However that may be, his family In
the United States-he had married a
Chinese wife, but had no children
never received a copper for his serv-
ices.
The army which Ward had created
was then taken by Chinese Gordon"
who, after several years of fighting,
put down the rebellion and achieved
international fame. It was Gordon who
reaped the glory, but Ward who laid
the foundation.
When the Boxer indemnity was paid
the United States by the Chinese
government many claims besides
those strictly apertaining to the Box
er uprising were included in the
awards. Among them was this 1884,
