Dewey destroyed the Spanish fl*M>t In Manila bay without tbe loss of* a man or material Injury to any of his vessels. The Spanish navy yard at Cavite then fell into his hands.

Smoky Substitutes Long Used Before Glass Lamps The story of lamps and fighting is a long one and that part of It that deals with the early settlers In New England fields many interesting features, notes a writer In the De troit News. One of them Is the betty iron vessel with an open wick. This, however, was burned sparingly, for It gave off a rank-smelling smoke and the glow was so feeble that It was of little assistance. About the same time candle-wood, a resinous pitch pine, was cut Into strips for lighting. It was more practical, as It burned brightly, but there was still the problem of the dense smoke. Rush lamps were alw) used, because they were easy to obtain, being noth ing more than cat-o’-nlne-taijs braid ed or bundled and soaked in oil or tallow. Bayberries, as well as the fat of wild animals, were used when tal low was not obtainable because cat tle were scarce. Candles were used only fob special occasions. After putting np with all of these Inconvenient methods of lighting, the coming of the Sandwich glass lamp was welcomed by the housewives of the early days. By 1800 the glass lamp was In general use.
