Tho battle ships that will participate are the Maine, Kearsarge, Illinois, Ala bama and Massachusetts. As the army is desirous of testing the eiliclency of the forts, guns rnid other defenses at Portland, the maneuvers will consist of attacks night and day upon that point by the formidable battle fleet, which probably will be commanded by Rear Admiral Barker. Several days prior to tho joint ma neuvers tho sea force will engage in a search problem, tho locality selected to be somewhere on the New England coast, yet to be determined.

Tho idea of making a palm garden of tho big court of the post ofllce build ing originated with William R. Smith, the veteran superintendent of the bo tanic gardens.

Archie Roosevelt, who is recovering from the measles, had a visitor the oth er day whoe visit will do more to re store blm to health than all tho medi cine the doctor can give him. Soon after Archie began to convalesce he begged to be allowed to see his spotted pony. It was too soon for Arcnie to reave his room, and Mrs. Roosevelt was com pelled to decline the request. Charles, tho groom who looks after tue pony and who also Is a great chum of Archie, thought the matter over and concluded that if Archie wanted to see his pony he should do so. Without confiding his plan to any 'one, ho led the pony the other day Into tho White House and along tue corri dor into the elevator. Tho attendants were too much surprised to say a word until after the elevator had disappear ed. - When tho second floor was reach- ed,Charles led the pony to Archies room and ushered it in. Archie was delighted, and the pony also sccmca to enjoy the visit This Is the first time that a horse nas ridden In a White House elevator. Kew Whits Home Carriage.
