i 14 and 18. These youth mostly hope
to he admirals as soon as they can get a
S&ove on their mustaches. Some of
them, I regret to say, are disappointed.
It was my good fortune not long ago,
in company with Commodore Boeder,
who may be seen on pleasant days walk
' ing the poop of the Pulitzer building, to
visit the Minneso.ta and watch the ex
amining board engaged in the arduous
task of selecting proper young inen for
the service, and forwarding sound can
didates to join them that do go down to
ttie gea in ships.
Dressing myself daintily in fine fa
tigue dress, with hectic necktie and high
lic hat, and with hair thrown carelessly
back to about the time of Queen Anne,
I joined the commodore, and we rode to
gether up Ninth avenue on a palatial
train of elevated cars, each of which had
a blase air, like that you notice on a
spring morning when you ride a mile or
two through clover meads and blooming
peach orchards and then suddenly step
into a nice air tight sleeping car. D;d
yon ever, oh! dove eyed reader, with the
delicately chiseled Graco-Roman not-e
and also delicately chiseled pocketbock,
enter a sleeping car just as it was wak
ing up? Didst ever ramble up and down
a meadowy brook at early dawn, crush
iC the heather, and the sweet fern, and
tfe bnll frog for an hour, and then,
ftnsked with success, un joint your rod
and, with the dew and the daisies cling
i kig to your high boots, catjeh an early

Well, that is how an all night elevated

me heart failure and a keen neck pain

Fiftieth street is a pleasing locality on
the hill where the cathedral and Van der-
til property are; but a few blocks away,
where she bathes her neglected feet in
the North river, you can get a flat :rv
reasonably if you do not care mu. 'i
abont environments. It is rather ar ekv
neighborhood, musical with the bleat f

odors of passe New York odors that t:;ke

f In strong contrast to all this came the
tlean and glistening decks of the Minne
sota, and the trim and well fed , officers
who welcomed us. We went down to
the wardroom, where I removed lny
beautifully dimpled high hat, and wa
isat down to breakfast. At the hea 1, of
the table sat Lieutenant Command.-r E.
S. Houston, commanding; on his l ight
sat Pay Inspector J. E., Talfree, of the
delirious signature. Next to the F. E.
Spinner of the navy came Chaplain S.
D. Boorom, a gentle looking warrior as
er manned a menu or poulticed a sin

geon James F. Keeney, who has to ex
amine the boys who apply and scruti
nize them for physical blemishes. On the
left of the commander sat Lieut. A. B.
Speyers. lie was pleasantly situated
next to me. Then came Commotio
Roeder, and next Ensign J. L. Pure 11.

a mistake that I was a good man, etset

statid that tho female he was travlin

hawled out 50 dollars ker slap & told her
to buy lier old muther as soon as posser

She then lade her hed over onto my

Sez I "Marni, I'm trooly sirprized." 1
Sez she, "git out. Yure the nicist old

Had a seleck assortment of the most tre

Sez I, "not mutch we wont," and I
made a powerful effort to get awa from

threw my specterculs out of the winder,

In graceful carves it 'nestled.
And glinted in the sua.
It told of amber tresses.
And eyes of violet blue.
Lips like bow of Cupid.
And cheeks of rosy hue.
Unconscious of its presence,
He wandered home to tea.
And there within the portal
Stood "wifey" all aglee.
Within a little second, ' '

Her dark eyes flashed their feeling,
A cloud burst o'er her face.
