Profanity in the Navy.

A tall, thin man stood on the deck OF a
battleship, and watched the target prae-
tice just outside of the mouth of the Ches-
apeake bay one morning last April. Near
the tall man, who was dressed in civilian
clothes, stood a young ensign in natty
uniform, his chest stuck into the fore
ground like that of poutcr pigeon. En-
signs, as a rule, feel indescribable contempt
for civilians, civilian clothes and civilian
brains.
There was the heavy boom of discharge
from one of the other battleships, and a
shell, going wide of the target, kicked up
a cloud OF foam far out to sea.
THAT she'll" remarked the civilian,
'fell far to the left.
"The hell it did" eontradicted the en-
sign, and continued to gaze toward the
horizon.
The tall, thin man regarded his compan-
ion in silent amusement for a few moments,
and then remarked
Il suppose I'd better introduce myself.
I'm the secretary of the navy"
Whereupon the ensign remembered the
naval regulations against profanity, let his
chest cave in like saucer, and lost his ap-
petite for three days.-Popular Magazine.

LOSES PART OF CARGO.
Quarter Million Laths Thrown
Overheard From Schooner Cousins.

A letter received here this morning
from Scammell Bros. of New York
agents for the schooner Harold B.
Cousins. which went on the shoals off
the coast Of New Jersey early in the
week, states that the vessel has ar
rived at that port in tow Of the revenue
cutter Seneca, and that she is leaking
badly. She had aboard a cargo of laths
belonging to Johnson & Wimsatt. About
$685. of the 100000 laths the YES
sci carried were thrown overheard to
tighten her so that she would float off
the shoals, and are now distributed up
and down the shore in the vicinity of
Brigantine Beach, and will be total
loss to the consignees.
1t is thought probable that the re-
mafnder of the cargo will be sold at
New York. but as they are wanted here
G. p. Lohr, representing Johnson &
Wimsatt, went to New York last night
to look after the interests of the firm
and to transfer the laths to another
vessel to be brought here. The inter-
ests Of the local firm are fully covered
by marine insurance on the yeSse- and
cargo. The Cousins will repair at New
