rA young NosY Yorker , who , after servin
ft aix-years' apprenticeship at the art , he-
came known as one of the finest bank note
. engravers in the United states , got tangled
"p with the Tenderloin and the fluids and
other ahluroments thereof about ten years
ago , and he wont to iieces in a cantor.
None of the engraving firms would employ
him on account of hts well known tendon-
- des toward dissipation. lie would work
for two ( lays and carotiso for two 'weeks ,
and ho got to ho a pretty no-account youth.
When ho was "tip against It. for fair , " to
Iso a phrase of the pave , ho concluded that
there was nothing for it but to "hold up
his hand" in a recruiting office. Ito chose
the navy , 110 wanted to get a penman's
billet , such as ship's vriter or yeoman , but
there were no vacancies , and , like a game
young chap , ho went In as a coal passer.
For a man 'who had been used to the corn-
fortablo living this young engraver had en-
ioved all of his life , the coal passer's billet

down and said to himself , "Take your

ready to go ashore after his three-year
cruise on the South Atlantic station ho had
been rated ns a first-class fireman , and ho
hadn't been In the brig niore than halt a
dozen times for wilti conduct. lie was as
' . ' steady as a rock during the last year , and
ho went over the 51(10 of his ship at Buenos
Ayrcs , at the conclusion of his enlistment.
about twenty times as good a man as ho
'was the tIny ho jOlflel the navy. Buenos
' .yrcs wanted engravers badly at the time ,
and this ox-coal passer got a job at 20 per
diem in gold the first day ho wont ashore ,
110 stuck to his work and kept out of the
swift whirl of young Englishmen and Arner-
leans who convert night into day down In
the fastest city in South America , and at
the cad dl two years ho got a contract for
engraving and prInting nfl the bonds and

Gels is lIg Salary.
'A young San Francisco man named Whit-
lock shipped In the navy as a coal passer at
C the Mare Island navy yard , California , in
1889 , lIe had been a clerk In a real estate
and Insurance oflico , and ho hind never had
a shovel In his hands before , probably , but.
he raked coal out of the bunkers valiantly
for a year before his clerical ability was
discovered and he 'as made enginein"a yen-
man , with the rate of chief petty oflicer ,
Then his ship went out to the China ala-
tion , By the time the ship arrived there
young Whitlock was in difficulties with his
chief engineer. who was an officer of the
old-fashioned swaggering type , still known
among the enlisted men as a "bucko" or
"belaying Pin first mate. "
Whtiock perceived the Plain fact that if
) o didn't get out of the navy he'd probably
wind up in a naval prison , for he had a lot
of trouble to keep his hands off the chief
engineer , vlio actually diii rub it in on him ,
and if he had done anything of that sort It
'was a case of at least five years in a naval
ririson , and the yeoman knew it , So ho
boughthis discharge out or the service. It
tonIc all of his savings , several hundreds of
dollars , to do it , but , as It afterward developed -
voloped , the price was cheap enough , Whit-
lock had a solitary 15 American gold vlcco
wbcn ho quit. the nary at Shanghai , but ho
bustled for a job and got one Imnmnediutely.
lie went to work as shipping clerk In a big
English opium-exporting house at a salary
of 25 a month , Whitiock bad it in him ,
and his employers saw It. Within three
months ho vas made correspondence clerk
at a salary of .Cl.000 per annum. At the
end of two years of service with the opium-
shipping firm he siil Into the billet of gen-
erai manager of the concern at a salary
equal to $20,000 per annum , and this is the
billet that Mr. Whitiock is holding down
tOdaY. lie Is one of the big "foreign devils"
of Shanghai and lila namno is in Shanghai's
English directory in heavy typo , Ills firm
needs him so badly that lie hazn't been able
to get back to the United States since ho

In time Chinese Service.
'rho Chinese customs service has for many
years regarded its ex-Amorican mano'-
war's men as among itt most valuable eta-
pioycs. The chief inspector of the custom
house at Canton is-or was two years ago-

mings. Cummings owned up to it. himself
that. ho wasn't a spectacular success as a
man O'-War's man. Swabbing decks-ho
shipped as a Iandsman-was not in his line ,
but fighting was a good deal to his taste , and
it is said in the navy yet that when Curn-
mings was cruising in the China seas ho
licked almost every man forward on the
China station.
lie got a bad conduct discharge when his
ship returned to San Francisco and ho didn't
have a dollar when be went ashore , flut ho
bad learned in China of the good opening
there for clever American clerks in the
customs service and so he shipped aboard a
"wind..Jammner" and made his 'way to Canton -
ton , where ho immediately wont to work
as a customs clerk. Ito was chief inspector
within thrco years , with enough gilt. on his
uniform to outfit two admirals , big pay , and
"perks" enough to permit of his hanging ott
to his membership in all of the best foreign
clubs in Canton.
A New Bnglantl Yankee "from up BaLls
way" named Babcock , who had done a lot of
merchant saliorizing up to the rate of eec-
end mate , shipped as an A. B. in the United
States navy at the Portsmouth navy yani in
1885. Babcock was a rattling good sailor , a
man without education , but with a whole
hot. of native shrcwdnc8s. 110 was liked vcIi
enough by his shipmates , who , however ,
voted him the stingiest man-o'-war's man
that over knotted a halyard. Babcock didn't
spend a cent aside from his mess and tobacco -
bacco money during his entire three-year
cruise , and , aim Ito was made a petty oiflcer
soon after his enlistment , ho bad a snug
plo of savings when ho went over the gangway -
way of his ship at Yokohama , Japan , "clear

Babcock looked around him for a whtlo
in Yokohama , and then he corralled about
a dozen skillful Japaimeso feather workcre ,
employed them at very small pay , and set
them to work making three-by-four-foot
representations in colored feathers ot George
\Vnshingtou , the father of his country. It
cost Babcock about 10 yen to have these
really artistic portraits In feathers made ,
and Iso sold nit or them that he couhi make
by employing more men nod making theta
work overtime to the United States man-n'-
war's men for from O to 75 yen apiece.
When the sale of the George Wnebingtons
In feathers grew slack Babcock set his Japs
to work making American flags of dclicatoly
worked feathers. lie got from 25 to iO yen
each for these , all that ho could turn out
of them , for almost every American naval
sailor on the China station bought one of
them to send or bring hack to his people in
this country. By this time the shrewd flab.
cock , vbo tfitln't drink saId or any other
kind of confusing liquid , had a plant. lie
set a large force of skillful Saps to work
making all sorts of Japanese curios , and he
started an emporium In Yokohama. lie
widened this out into a wholesale establish-
meat , tnd began shipping Japanese curios
to England , America and the other big markets -
kets for Japanese products of art. Babcock
hasn't made any effort to bare the tatooed
compasses and stars removed from his big ,
horny hands , even if ho Is now one of the
very wealthy Americans living in Japan ,
Ho makes frequent tours of his branch
wholesale Japanese curio emporiums at
Kobe , Nagasaki and Ilakodate , and he enjoys -
joys life prodigiously in a quiet sort of way ,
Ho is one of the very beat friends the Amer.
lean sailors have on the China station.
Whenever one of them goes broke ashore In
Yokohama , all ho has to do is to make for
Babcock's emporium , and , if Babcock is
there. the tar always cornea away with
enough yen under his mustering shirt. to see
him tbrough the rest of his liberty.

of France Is art ex-American man-o'-war's
amen , who put. in nearly twenty years on
the Mediterranean station as a chief bo'sun'n
mate , without ever once returning to
the land of his bIrth. This was a very unusual -
usual thing , but the chief bo'sun's mate
made it go through because ho mastered a
knowledge of the channels of all of the
Mediterranean ports , and therefore became
an Invaluable man to be lept onthat eta-
tion as long as ho wanted to remain there.
Ho wanted to remain there very badly , for ,
during his first cruise on the station , hemet
met a pretty millinery girl in Nice that he
grow very fond of , muid lie married her.
The chief boaun's mate saved his money ,
anti after a. few years he set his wire up in
1110 millinery business In Nice. She made
it ; go from the start , and it. was not long
before she was making lIve times the
amount of her husband's pay as a sailor.
She wanted him to quit the navy , but ho
liked the navy and iso was an independent
man besides. His wife , thoroughly devoted
to her good-looking American sailor bus-
band , continued on in business , and time
pair began to grow wealthy. fly this time
there were halt a dozen young ones In the
family , The chief bo'sun'a mate continued
to save his own money , and after a while
ho went into the wine-dealing business in
Nice , as a side issue to his naval saiioriz-
Ing. His business prospered from the jump ,
and ho began to make money rapidly. Still
ho stuck to the navy. A few years ago the
idea finally did soak into his mind that it
vas absurd for him to remain In the service
when ho already had more money than ho
knew what to do with , and he gave up his
bo'sun's mate billet , to the general regret
of his oWcers lie hung on to his Nice wIne
business , and went to the Ilurgundy district
and started to growing grapes , This , also ,
was a conspicuous success , and after a few
years of it be closed up his business in
Nice , he his vIto did hers , and they.ettled
downwIth their children on one of the prettiest -
tiest estates in the wine district. The son
of a rich Lyons silk merchant made eyes
at his oldest daughter and married her. and
a while hater a young French nobleman ,
who was decidedly not impecunious , married
another ot his daughters. his wife , still
pretty , pokes fun at him down to the present
day over the twang that ho mixes in with
his French speaking , nod the establishment

men-of-war that was shy a galley cook ,
with a saucepan for a rating badge on his

Englishmen could get a chop and a steak
cooked and served in the right Anglo-Saxon
style , Mulvibill opened a little steak aul

A few years ago a cavalrymen named fllac'k
was "bobtailed" from his troop out at the
Presidio of San Francisco for general wild-

him go , for ho was by long odds the very

unbeatable and darIng ocrobat on his mount.
Black didn't have a eou-rnarquo when ho
ices escorted to the Presidio's main gate by
a detail of the guard , but ho walked down
to a San Francisco riding academy and got
a job as instructor for $100 a month in
wages. lie taught the prettiest girls In San
Francisco how to ride horseback , and some
of them became so interested in the young
ex.soldier that they got their papas to unite
and set him up with a riding acadensy of

It. was a contrast to the camp of time regulars -

was like a picnic ground. All the sal.
diera vimo were not on duty seemed to go
where they pleased and tb what they
pleased. Ono sentinel walked his beat. with
girl on his arm , and I myself saw a typical
scene _ A lieutenant was escorting the cola-
aol's daughter through one of thq camps
and a sentinel stopped antI presented arms.
"Why , is that George ? " Said time girl.
"Dear me , I didn't know you ! Can't. you
shako hands with me ? " ho nllcd , to the
serious soldier , who stood at rigid attention.
George grinned helplessly anti with a
comical compromlso between his dignity as
a soldier and his personal relations with
his superior said : "Yes , I can , if Jim there
will let me. "
Lieutenant Jim at once lot.
"May I Bee your gun ? " said the colonel's
daughter.
'Sure , " said George , "with pleasure. "
Lieutenant Jim smiled uneasily and
looked conscientious.
"You go to the guardhouse for that ,

mustn't. give up your gun to anybody but
your commanding officer ? '

the colonel's ( laughter , and the gallant lieutenant -

George went to the guardhouse.
At first the volunteers almost starved.
So one morning a company lined up before
the colonel's tent , sang him a song and
told him how hungry they were. Then they
said they bad a request to make 'which they
feared ho would not. granL The colonel
told theta to make the request fearlessly.
"Please , sir , have you a calendar ? " asked
a deep voice , respcctfuhiy , at once end of
the line.
" " salt ! the colonel "

fled."Please
"Please , sir , " said a squeak from the lit-
tb man at the other end of the line , "we
should like to eat the dates. " And thereupon -
upon the soldiers ran.
Now this dearth of food got abroad anti
proved a blessing. IL touched tbo hearts
of the mothers in the bear-grass and bluegrass -
grass and now these boys have the fat of
the land in plenty.
That aernoon there was a regimental
drill in one of the pasture-lands of Ashland -
land , through knee-deep blue grass , and
with the singing of meadow larks over-
head. The mountaineers , who had an
uniforms and were undrillcd , 1ept time
crowd back. One big follow in a slouch
bat , who was pushing it back firmly , saw
a girl with a bicycle , and her escort , no-
tiring before him.
lie put one big sunburnt hand on the
man's chest , and with the ether took off
his hat. "Lady , " he said , "you come out
here 'where you can see. "
They drill well , these volunteers-some of
the companies exceedingly well-and time
officers , charging up and down tim field In
a running walk or rack or gallop on their
southern-gaited horses , were a contract to
time sturdily trotting regulars , and-Shade of

At dusk the crowd melted away , and
the star and crescent rose over the menu-

among the hills of the capital , where hived

and time only line upon which alto is sue-
ceseful ; I macan , that of applied knowledge.
At time risk of offendIng women , I boldly
assert that thmey tb not care for knowledge ,
per se. Much is said nowadays of the opportunities -
portunities of women for higher education ,
But they have always had opportunity.
There has always been knowledge to he
gained , aimmi books from wimicli to acquire
it. lint gcimeraliy speaking women are nat
eager for knowledge In the abstract , Show
them how they nmny appiy it , what pine-
ticnl use it may be put. to , and they are
more than willing to go to ironic.
"As related to club work , their order of
development may be designated as follows :
Constructive , educational , co-ordinate. The
work of time convention at Ienver leaves
them with a broad anti solid foundation for
future growth ,

"You will flail women's clubs now hack
of every good word and ironic. Everywhere -
where are they working for better sanitation -
tation , for cleaner administration In the
body politic , for more just laws. Why ,
out of twenty-four bills recently prescatemi
to tIme Mama legislature by a woman's
club , twenty-two were pased , They hiavo
simply revolutionized prison conihitiona In
Chicago. They have frequently been in-

that clubs have been a powerful factor In
the advancement of women ? "
"Mono titan thmaL I ant , indeeti , convinceti

college. As long ago as the World's fair ,
the results of club work were perfectly oh-
vious. I hail little difficulty then in acetic-
ing 1,000 women train as many different
places to servo as chairmen of committees ,
All of these women were ready , apt anti not
