the famous plainsman grimly but if
not I should do the next best thing in
case of fire
What is that
Put him out
Years ago Buffalo Bill and Yellow
Hand a Cheyenne chief had an all but
hand to hand fight They were mount
ed and made a dead set for each other
When some twenty paces apart they
opened a simultaneous fire and both
horses fell dead in their tracks Nei
ther of such experienced horsemen
however was to be caught by a falling
animal and both alighted on their feet
Both rifles again came to shoulder with
machine like precision and again the
two shots were as one This time Yel

but Buffalo Bills bullet crashed
through the Indian chiefs brain

Mr Moody tells of a sailor on the Mas

finally recovered and later in describ

Rear Admiral Robley D Evans
known affectionately as Fighting
Bob who helped to entertain Admiral
Prince Louis of Battenberg on his re
cent American visit is famous for his
rough and ready way of talking He
believes in a greater navy not only
more ships but more well trained men
to man them and still better trained
officers to command the men Speak
ing of this need in response to a toast
to the navy at a dinner a short time
ago he said
We need the merchant marine We
got our men from it in the civil war
but we could not
get the men In 1S98
and let me tell a lit
tle story We were
lying off Cienfue
gos and we expect
ed a light that is
the navy depart
ment expected us to
have a fight so they
sent down a ship
load of recruits to
take the place of
PERRY BELMONT
the dead men They
were all given their KEAR admiral r
billets their bunks -
and their kits but there was no time to
drill them Among them Avas a big
strapping fellow from Detroit One
night there was an alarm of the ene
mys torpedo boats and a rocket went
up from one of our scout ships Well
I got out on the superstructure pretty
quickly and as I got under the electric
light I felt a tug at my elbow I look
ed around and there was the Detroiter
Say mister he said Well I an
swered looking around Say mister
where am I to fight
Where are you stationed
I am stationed in the port after
eight inch turret he said pulling out
his billet
Well there it is right there my
man I said
Yes he replied I know it Is but
how In hades do you get into it
Well he turned out a pretty good
petty officer after awhile but let us
have no more raw recruits in time of
war
Perry Belmont of New York who is
engaged in creating public interest in
the subject of having state and na
tional laws enacted for the publicity of
contributions made to political com
mittees and candidates for their elec
tion expenses is s
son of the late Au
gust Belmont and
grandson and name
sake of Commodore
Oliver Hazard Per
ry who won the
battle of Lake Erie
and sent the fa
mous message We
have met the ene
my and they are
ours Mr Belmont
is a graduate of
Harvard and of Columbia Law school
has served four terms in congress was
minister to Spain in 1888 and 1SS9 and
has figured prominently in politics
Seven years ago Henry T Sloane a
New York millionaire secured a di
vorce in connection with which Perry
Belmonts name was conspicuously
mentioned As soon as the decree was
granted Mr Belmont and the divorced
wife were married
Governor Edwin Warfield of Mary
land who is aiding in the campaign
against the Chesapeake bay oyster
boatmen accused of shanghaiing and
murdering sailors attracted national
attention a year ago by declaring that
the American girl marries too young
My advice to girls he said is to
eschew matrimony before they are
twenty six years of age That was
the age of Mrs Warfield when she
and I were married I have told my
daughters that I will not consent to
their marriage be
fore they are twenty-six
I shall re
sist inflexibly any
modification of that
rule
The governor sup
plemented the above
expression by stat
ing that while twenty-six
is the mini
mum age at which
he believes girls
should marry they
GOVERNOR EDWIN
WARFIELD
would become bet
ter wives and be happier in after life
if they waited until they were twenty
eight or even thirty years of age
He was promptly accused of endeav
oring to lay the foundations for a race
of old maids
It was pointog out by those who did
not agree with him that 80 per cent
of the American women who pass the
age of twenty six years without be
coming wives never do scramble out
of splnsterhood but he declined to
change his views
The governor has three daughters
and when he was asked what he would
do if one of them wished to marry at
twenty one he smiled confidently and
said I have warned them not to ex
pect my consent to their marriage be
fore they are twenty six and I hope
to convert them to my way of thinking
before they arrive at that critical age
A QUEEN IN EXILE
Patbetlo Storr of Ranavolo of Madn
ffaacmr Har French PnaIoa
There Is a pathetic aide to the story
of Ranavolo Manjaka III the deposed
queen of Madagascar who is now on
a visit to Paris She waa once ruler
over 3000000 people and a territory
measuring 250000 square miles She
came to the throne of Madagascar in
18S2 when a war was in progress and
it was her duty on several occasions
to appear before the assembled thou
sandsof her warriors and stimulate
them by a few stirring words to en
thusiasm for a brave defense of their
fatherland On one such occasion she
said I am a woman but I have the
heart of a man and I myself will
stand up and lead you to fight with
those who would take away our land
God forbid that we should become
slaves of the foreigner
But the tide of war and of fortune
was with the foreigner In 18S5 the
BANAVOLO MAKJAKA m
war was terminated by a treaty in
which the French acquired protectorate
rights over Madagascar and Ranavolo
became a vassal queen Instead of an
independent sovereign Ten years lat
er hostility toward the French again
led to war with the result that Rana
volo was deposed while Madagascar
became a French colony She was ex
iled first to the Island of Reunion and
thence in 1800 to Algiers where she
has to live except when she obtains
special permission from the French
government to pay a visit to some oth
er place She has received a regular
pension for years and in deference to
public sympathy for the exiled queen
it was recently raised from 30000 to
50000 francs
SIR FREDERICK TREVES
Famous Surgeon Who Says Disease
la Not u Bad Thins
Americans heard a good deal about the
famous English surgeon Sir Frederick
Treves when he operated so success
fully upon King Edward and brought
that monarch through an illness which
threatened to put a premature end to
his reign He stands at the head of
his profession in England and holds
the title of sergeant surgeon in ordina
ry to the king and surgeon in ordinary
to the Prince of Wales He is a fore
most authority on the subject of ap
pendicitis and peritonitis and was the
first surgeon to introduce removal of
the vermiform appendix as a cure for
appendicitis which by the way he
calls perityphlitis It is said that he
has operated upon more than a thou
sand cases of this nature and that only
two persons of all this number died
Recently Sir Frederick has been at
tracting attention by his utterances to
the effect that disease is not altogeth
er a bad thing Disease he says may
be beneficent and he declares that if it
SIB FREDERICK TREVES
were not for disease the human race
would soon be extinct In illustration
of his idea he Instances the malady
known as a cold and says that sneez
ing drives bacteria from the nasal pas
sages while coughing removes them
from the windpipe
Sir Frederick was born in 1S53 edu
cated in London and won his reputa
tion in London hospitals At the out
break of the South African war he
threw up his London practice and vol
unteered for service He was appointed
consulting surgeon was present at ev
ery engagement from Colenso to Lady
smith and on his return was knight
ed It is related that when be got
back in London he met one day an offi
cer who had been wounded and the
greater part of whose brain the sur
geon had removed On the surgeon ask
ing him how he was getting along
with half a brain the officer answered
Oh Its all right you know They
have given me a good berth in the war
