stronger than their competitors,

F FAME TO
BE SAVED
By United Press.

By United Press.
BOSTON, Feb. 23.-Commandant
Rush of the Charleston navy yard, has
put at rest all worry over the fate of
the Constitution The gallant old
frigate which lies at anchor there.
In an interview with the United Press
Captain Rush said he was greatly sur
prised to have been quoted as say
ing that "Old Ironsides" must be NOV
ed to make room for other and more
modern vessels.
"In my opinion" said the command
ant" the Constitution comes first. All
other ships here must take second
place. l regard her as symbolic of the
Constitution of the United States and
| would as soon destroy one as the
other. So long as she lasts, which,
with adequate repairs should be for
ever, Old Ironsides shall have her
place in the yard. | understand | have
been quoted as saying we need the
space now occupied in the yard by
the frigate, but this is absolutely un-
| true.
"The Constitution rides at anchor at
the safest spot in the Charleston yard;
protected against fire IN every way.
She is within a few hundred feet of
the place where she was launched
over 100 years ago, and each year over
so 10 visitors go aboard and roam mp
and down the aged hulk, a reminder
of the days when the United States
swept all before her on the seas.

Cold Meat at Dawn.

All life is a war; there is much
enemy" as one of Kipling's Indian
heroes remarked, in every enterprise;
the lessons which form par excellence
the curriculum of sport are as invalu-
able to the banker or lawyer as to the
soldier. Little traits show the drift of
the wind of character. Napoleon first
displayed his quality in the storm
ing of fortresses of snow, and surely
something of the austere pertinacity
CT this great adversary is dedusible
from his eternal order for breakfast,
cold meat at dawn" This was Vel
lingtons invariable answer to the aide
de-camp whose duty it was to inquire
of the duke at what hour he would
breakfast next day ana what he would
eat. An amusing tale is told of the
disgust of a lie-a-bed Belgian general
who, loving French cooking, had to
spend a penitential month in attend
ance on the Spartan duke.
