When the gunboat Helena was in Washington several months ago it was explained to visitors that there was no ship in the navy that was better fitted for the accommodation of its officers. After everything had been pointed out, the young officers would point with pride to the chests under neath the buuks provided for the nni- foruis, so that no possible damage Could result to them. Electric fans, stationary wasbstaiuls, and other con veniences were all well enough. But it was really the clothes chests which caught the fancy of the officers most. K*' When the United Htates naval of ficers lost their belongings iu the terrible storm at Samoa several years ago, a bill was introduced to reim- bure them. Estimates were asked from tailors for the cost of au officer’s outfit. It was figured out that that of a Lieutenant eonld bo taken as the basis, and the amount could bo de creased or increased, according to rank. The wearing apparel of a Lieu tenant was figured at $lff(»5, that of an Ensign was fixed at about S1050. and the Hear Admiral’s at about $2000. There is a tailor in Washington who has been supplying the uniforms for naval officers for nearly fifty years. W’hou Captain Dewey was promoted to Commodore and left for the Asiatic station in December he went to this tailor, who has been tilting him out ever since ho has been iu the navy. “I want everything exactly accord ing to regulations,’’ Dewey told the man of the goose and shears. “Fix it up as quick ns you can. But above all bu careful that you make no mis take in regard to the regulations. If I hadn’t been promoted I should not have had the trouble of coming to see you aud spending some more money.’’ The tailor in question said that Ad miral I’orter, while pretending not to be so, was a most particular mau iu regard to bis dress. It would have to fit him exactly. When he became Admiral, at the death of Admiral Far- ragut, he had au entire full-dress out fit made. This cost, including the chapean, $,ti5. The chapeau aud coat had oak leave* ou them. His trousers ^ore gold laced, and his gold sword belt was worked in oak leaves. His epaulets alone cost $175. “He was a great man for a joke, Admiral Porter was,” said “ richer and easier, *The English were disappointed sorely to find that the inhabitants, in leaving for other parts, had either hidden or taken all valuables with them, so there wasu’U enough plunder to go around. The invaders, however, confiscated all the silver church bolls and the guns from the fort, and, as if just to show their spite, blew up the Morro Castle aad destroyed the cathedral. The Morro was rebuilt in 1003, and remains to this day—or rather till the other day, when Yankee guns once more battered it. Philip I. was King of Spain at the time, and he was angry that the English should he so rough with his belongings. It always has been part of the Spanish nature to get angry about little things and rave in help less rage. In 1702 the English took Havana, and Santiago for a while was left out of consideration, but not for long. Iu 1700 alongcame an earthquake, wreck ing half the city and putting 100 peo ple out of the misery of being Spanish subjects. Since that time the towu has lived a pretty even existence up to the present time. Looking back ward, we see that a full 100 years elapsed between the capture of San tiago and the capture of Havana.— New York Sun.

It represented blot in the center, intersected by black lines, whose four termin; id each in a smaller blot thus: Catting Children’s Hair. The best authorities on the hair say that a child’s hair should not be cut until it is four or five years of age. It should be kept cut after this until the child is about fourteen. After this a little girl’s hair should be allowed to grow long. It should be trimmed at the tips, however, or burned off monthly to keep it even and tbe hairs from splitting at the end. Do not wash the hair too often unless it is very oily. In that case wash it often to remove the excess of oil. Dry hair that is inclined to come out should be kept clean by daily use of tbe brush applied vigorously to the scalp. It should not be washed oftener than once iu six weeks. or prise as si nutln would nrmr puient. ie feeding and clothing of the iers can bo done as cheaply and itisfactorily as when in jail. All Critics agree that their health be vastly improved and habits of regular systematic labor engrafted upon their lives that would be a bles sing to them afterwards aud a boon to the community in ridding it of au idle class that becomes steeped in vice largely through its habits of idleness.

A Cheerful Sitting Room. A bright Vassar girl has invented a simple way of making a sitting room seem cheerful. It consists in putting a thin coat of pink varnish upon tbe glass of the windows, or, where it is feasible, of using the lightest colored pink glass for the purpose. No mat ter what the weather is outside, it always looks cozy aud comfortable within. In her house she has what she calls the cabinet of horrors, and tbe uncanny atmosphere of the place is produced by a similar use of a light bluish glass. Where a small amount of color Is used the eye does not no tice tbe fact, although the mind is affected by it, pink light causing a slight exhilaration and blnish light the feeling^of depression.—New York | Hail and Express. Mr. Uln>Uton<t*« Eiitnt*. Writing in the London Daily Tele graph, the Hon. F. Lawley states that after Sir John Gladstone’s death the involved condition of Sir Stephen Glynne's affairs, consequent upon the mismanagement of the Hawarden estate by an over-sanguine agent, was disclosed fyr the first time. With characteristic energy and prudence, Mr. Gladstone came to his brother-in- law’s rescue, and enabled him to re main permanently in the beautiful Welsh home to which both were so passionately attached. The sum then advanced l>y Mr. Gladstone to save the Hawarden estate amounted, it is said, to $250,000, and two of the farms be came Mr. Gladstone's property. At no time during his long residence at Hawarden did Mr. Gladstone’s unof ficial income exceed $25,000 a year. Such, however, was the thrift and sa gacity with which the Hawarden es tate was managed, that the eldest sou of Mr. William Henry Gladstone,born in 1885, will, it is believed, succeed to $50,000 a year on attaining his ma jority. Why Swimmer* Drown. The sudden drowning of a good swimmer is not due to a cramp, as generally supposed.

It is understood that General Stone, director of the Hoad Inquiry Bureau of the Department of Agriculture, is to go to Ouba in order to construct military roads there to facilitate the occupation of the island by our army. Complete outfits of road-making ma chinery are expected to be taken am the work pushed with all speed. In considering tha matter, *tho Chicago Record says that General Stone “re viewed with General Miles the con- ditions to be anticipated in Cuba dur ing the rainy season, when the rough roads there will be rendered impas sible, and the ease with which good roads can be constructed by tbe use of improved machinery. He pointed out with effect the strategio advantages which would have been gained by the Union armies during the war if facili ties for constructing good roads had been available and if military opera- tibns had not depended iu so large measure upon the elements. He re called several instances where decided progress would have been made had the armies constructed roads instead of waiting in camp for the sun and wind to dry the mud and make the rough country passable. General Stone believes that the roads that he will construct will not only materially aid the movement of the armies, but that they will remain a permanent improvement to be enjoyed by tbe people of Cuba after peace is re stored.” Good Road* In MnsMchnMtt*. The Ways and Means Committee ms reported iu favor of the appropria tion of $400,000 for highways ($200,- 000 less than the Committee on Roads aud Bridges recommended), all but $100,000 of it to be arailablethisyear. This is a generous amount of money to put into roads, and it is well in vested. But let the House remember this wbeu the wide-tire, or road-pro tector, bill comes before it.—Boston Transcript. Narrow Versus Wide Tires. Scientific experiments extending over two years have been made to de termine the relative qualities of wide and narrow wagon-wheel tiies. Every kind of road was used to test the question. It was found that on macadam roads tbe narrow tire - ' were A Parisian Globe Trotter. The Oriental liner Empress of China sailed yesterday afternoon for Yokohama and Houg Koug. Among the passengers was Dr. DuFay, a Parisian physician, who is touring tbe world ou foot for a purse of $40,000. Seated one evening in January, 1897, in Cafe de Prince, Paris, with two companions, Dr. Fougue and Dr. Te- tiurd, the conversation turned upon the trip made by Miss Nellie Bly, aud Dr. DuFay volunteered au opinion that, although such a trip is thought remarkable, one made around the globe on foot would be still more so. The result was a wager, Dr. DuFay undertaking to make a start from Paris, without money and clad only in a paper suit to encircle the earth on foot aud to return by January 1, 1900, not shaving or having his hair cut on the journey. Tbe doctor’s hair now hangs in unworked • profusion down his shoulders. He is a gentleman of education and carries credentials of a very high order. He practices his profession en route, paying especial attention to rheumatism and gout; he never asks for assistance, but accepts graciously anything tendered him, and, judging from his appearance, be has met with good treatment on his long trip.—Manitoba (Can.) Free Press. Clenfuegos. On tbe southern coast of Cuba, 130 miles southeast of Havana, is the beautiful town of Cienfuegos. No one who has seen its broad, shaded streets and airy houses, surrounded as many of them are by gardens ar ranged with characteristic taste, can fail to be impressed with its tropical luxuriousness. In fact the town is known as the most beautiful on the island. Its population is variously estimated at from 10,000 to 20,000, the proportion of whites being small, as is usual in Cuba. It is the capital of a jurisdiction of the same name, in Santa Clara Province, and is situated on the bay of Jagna, a capacious har bor of excellent proportions, protected )j the fort of Los Angeles. Cienfuegos was founded about 1813, and was named from the Captain Gen eral of Cuba at that time. Its exports sugar, wax, and timber—have de veloped a prosperous community. Boxes In Soup Manufacturing. Two of the soap manufacturers in Chicago together use more than three million white pine and cottonwood xxes in the oonrse of a year to ship thair product. There are something >re than fifty soap manufacturers in United States, and the annual iumption of all of them together is e hundred and fifty million boxes. Women Students In Germany. “I think the hatred of the educated omau grows more savage every day, ” -’itosayoung American girl studying vir* , n.flWftx>p^^fa. < -‘The women clhmorin •re mostly Americans •&_ and only a great deal of pluck prevents the former from throwing up their studies and running away, so bitter are their experiences sometimes, ow ing to their double crime of being wo men and being foreigners. Some great and stirring lights of the University, such as \ irehow aud Leyden, have spoken up bravely in favor of the ma triculation of women, but the lesser men grudge them every privilege that they seek. Thus, on the door of i certain professor at the Berlin Univer sity is, at the present moment, the fol lowing notice: ‘Female Hearers Not Admitted.’ Not that the subjects treated within might wound feminine delicacy—oh, no! Tbe professor— Grimm by name, and grim by nature —lectures upon ‘Art and Culture in the Nineteenth Ceutury. ’ It is a beau tiful satire.”—New York Post.. To Be Short or Tall? It is a curious fact that the majority of men do not seem to be attracted by taU girls. We wonder why? asks an English critic. Perhaps, remarks the Chicago Nows, it is men are so accus tomed to be looked up to—at all events by the fair sex—that it is only natura for them to prefer the girl who, in her little caressings and fascinating lover like ways, has, on account of her short ness, to look up at him for the purpose of peering into his lovelit eyes. But very short women can only sound the note of a forlorn condition, unfortu nately, for fussy, modern man, taking him iu the abstract, passes her over and lets his choice fall upon her com paratively taller sister. The superla tively tall woman and the positively short woman the average mau leaves severely alone. Tall women are usually dignified and would appear to scorn kittenish ways, and although they manage to draw admiration, it is rather of the awe inspiring kind. No doubt, owing to their smallness of stature and pretty playful ways, men give to little women more petting than the tall, dignified woman demands. The lover’s oft re peated expression, “You little darl- mg, could hardly be applied fc) the very taU girl without tickling tbe risi bilities of those who overheard it This is certainly very hard, and looks like a pumshjnent for being tall, but who cau help her stature? And it is a fact, too, that men are rather shv about approaching tall women, because of restraint which they feel but cannot explain. They are under the impres sion—why it’s hard to tell—that tall women are built to be commanders, and that they are in their natural ele ment when left alone in their reserved dignity and musings in their lonely wanderings. Th. Sweetness of One Woman’s Garden. A cerUin woman had a flower gar den at her home in the aubiu bs of a busy oity. She had no gardener, but did oil the work herself. humbler flowers grew at her bidding, and it became a great pleasure to her to see her friends’ daiifht in her gar* den. No caller ever left with hands empty of flowers. At first this was all the did with her flowers except to use them inside her home, bat gradually she fell into the way of sending them to the sick among her neighbors. Many a weary invalid was refreshed with the sweet ness of roses or the perfume of carna tions, or the dreamy, restful fragrance of violets. Children, going home from school, loved the common, bright-hned flowers she gave them— ragged-robins, snapdragons, sweet- williams, marigolds, poppies, nastur- tiums, and geraniums. One day she missed her car into the city, and while waiting for the next one sauntered, gloves in baud, about her glowing ga: J *\. For pure love of them she gatherer a bunch of crimson carnations, and carried them with her into the horse-car. “Something sweet to smell,” she thought. When her shopping was done she caught a saleswoman’s eyes bent wistfully npon the glowing blos soms, and she gave them to her. It was a revelation to her to see the flash of pleasure which lit np the tired face. “Oh, thank yon,” was all the delighted girl said, bat her happy face expressed far more than was conveyed in her words. From that day to this that woman has never taken the ear into the city without a bunch of flowers in her hand, and some one who needs them always gets them. Sometimes it is • crippled boy, whom she chances to meet on the street; sometimes a tired faced woman, with her heavy basket of clothes; and often it is a sales woman, worn and weary with long hoars of standing. All cannot gather flowers eveiy day in the year, bat she who has even a few flowers can do mnoh in a quiet way. A buucb of violets or pansies, cool and fragrant, given with • smile and a kind word; a few sprays of roses placed in a tired saleswoman’s hand; a cluster of carnations laid upon a poor woman’s heavy basket, will lighten the load, will breathe sweet stories of the country and freedom and space, and the delicious out-of- door life of it all.—Home Comfort. Fashion Note*. gray, small nguree aie among summer dress patterns. -f? Large bunches of violets tied with bow knots form one of the prettv de signs seen in wash goods. Black dotted Swiss gowns are made up over color and trimmed with rows and rows of black lace insertion. The Empire tortoise-shell comb, set in below the knot of hair at the back, is a useful as well as ornamental ad junct. A French gown of blue is enlivened with a touch of burnt orange, and the hat to be worn with it is of trimmed with orange velvet. A pretty bit of dainty underwear is a short chemise of the finest orepe de chine, finished around the neck with a lace-trimmed frill of finest white lawn. Several dresses have been finished with yokes of solid embroidery and braid. If these are at all of open design they are lined with bright satin or silk. Some of the new round hats of Spanish yellow braid are trimmed with nothing but black ostrich plumes, black velvet ribbon and black poppies with yellow hearts. The regulation cape is made so as to stand out from the shoulders like a rain-shed, “the more flare the more fashion” seeming to be the idea their making up. The latest silk shirt waists are corded; in fact, everything corded is the rage, the cords ranging in size from a common wrapping twine to the size of one’s finger. Yellow vies with blue for prominence in millinery. Yellow flowers, yellow tulle, chiffon and yellow straw are brilliantly conspicuous, besides all the warm tints of burnt orange. Braided black nets, with tiny frills of gauze ribbon between the bayadere mtterns, are a very popular material or the transparent gown which is a fashionable necessity this season. Shoes are less pointed than hereto- ore. Heels are rather low and broad and the moderately heavy walking shoe has become one of the indis- pensable articles of every lady’s outfit. The pretty and picturesque neck and shoulder effects, and the new way of adjusting the fronts, render the very fashionable princesae dress of the most attractive models of in one the season. Hats are remarkable for the absence of ribbon in their trimming. Soft materials, either plain or figured, are ^referred, and these are used in puffs loops, rolls and large soft bows ami rosettes. For out door wear tan shoes with tb ® 8bort to** socks are worn by little shildran; while for indoors, either Jlack or colored shoes with stockings to match. Shoes are used much more ban slippers, as they are supposed to
