Rear Admiral schley Dead.

New York, October Rear Admi-
raj Winfield Scott schley dropped dead
to-day near the corner OF Forty-fourth
street and Fifth avenue, while on his
way down town.
{, He had been out of town over Sum
day and on his return here had gone to
the New York Yacht Club on West For
ty-fourth street. After short stay at
the club Admiral Schley started to walk
along Forty-fourth street toward Fifth
avenue. when he was taken suddenly
ill. A hurry call was sent for physi-
clans, but before aid could reach him,
the Admiral was dead.
Near the Berkeley Theatre, Admiral
Schley started across the street, and as
he stepped upon the curb, passersby
saw him stagger and fall.
Traffic policemen sent in hurry call
for physicians. When the ambulance
arrived the physicians said the Admiral
had died from apoplexy.
Admiral Schley was born in Freder-
lex County, Md, in 1889. After grad
uating at Annapolis in 1860 and serving
during the civil war in minor capacities,
he was commissioned in 1865 as Lieu
tenant-Commander. At the outset of
the Spanish war, in 1898, Admiral
Schley was placed in command of what
was known as the flying squadron,
which sailed from Fortress Monroe to
cooperate with Admiral Sampson in
operations in the Caribbean Sea.
Under orders from Sampson he
steamed through the Yucatan passage
to the vicinity of Santiago while Samp-
son passed around the east end OF the
Island. Schley's squadron stood before
Santiago for some days and was about
to leave when it was announced that
Cevera's fleet was in Santiago harbor.
A junction with Sampson occurred al
most Immediately. On July IA, 1898,
Cervera undertook to escape. At the
time Sampson, aboard his flagship, the
the New York, was some miles away at
Sibony in conference with Gen. Shafter.
An engagement followed in which
Schley's flagship, the Brooklyn, took
an active part. II
After the war closed numerous charges
we're made that Schley had been guilty |
Of inefficiency If not cowardice, and he {
asked court Of inquiry. After pro-
onged period he was acquitted but /
ailed Of further advancement which he ]
lad claimed was his due. He was re-
ired October 8, 1901, as a Rear Adj
niral. t

Women's clubs are largely

A certain club recently de-
voted an afternoon to the dis

woman contributed some inter-
esting remarks-her own ex-
perience-on lighting the little
corners which are so ordinarily
overlooked.
She had been subjected to the
ordinary experience of hasty

In putting the house to rights it
took up more time to place in

out of chaos in the living rooms.
The remedy was found in an
extension Of the house lighting

equipped with a lamp and the
switches of each so arranged
that they turned on and of auto

method all possibility of the
