In fact In which the accompany ing cut shows him. This is his very swellest ' outfit, and consists of a double-breasted coat, with talis lined throughout with white silk serge; trou sers, also of navy blue broadcloth, with gold lace down the outer seams, a gold banded cocked hat, epaulets, sword and full dress sword belt. The coat sleeves will be adorned with two two-Inch stripes of gold lace with a single 'one Inch stripe between, and all surmount ed by a single star. It Is In this star that the distinctive marks differ from Admiral Farragut's, his star bearing a "small frigate embroidered In silver in the center, while Admiral Dewey's Is plain. , There will be a broad band of gold lace around the collar. His epau lets," like his shoulder straps, shown at the bottom of the picture, will bear four sllvefstars of five points each, the outer two being superposed upon gold fouled' anchors, the anchors being the distinctive marks for an admiral as compared with the four plain stars of a general. " The full dress uniform is to be worn on all-other occasiewvof -jceremony, such for instance as in making the first visit to other officers of flag rank and on social occasions to which officers are Invited in their official capacity. The coat of this uniform is like the evening dress of the civilian, and with .the exception of the collar and the but tons down the front Is adorned just as the "special" full dress coat Is epau lettes, sword and cocked hat being .worn also. !: On occasions of "ordinary cere mony," such as in boarding ships of .war, in making the first visit In port upon commanding officers, on parades of ceremony with enlisted men under arms, and at the ordinary Sunday In spections excepting, of course, the first one of the month the admiral will wear the "dress" uniform. - This uni form Is a frock coat plain blue or white trousers, cocked hat epaulettes, Bword and plain leather belt The ad miral's belt for this dress is the same as that prescribed for all other officers. and Is of black grained leather of not ! more than two Inches in width. The ' belt plate or buckle Is of yellow gilt I and consists of a wreath of oak leaves surrounding the naval coat of arms of thirteen stars encircling a spread eagle on an anchor. When calling on foreign officers other than commanding officers, and on so cial occasions when frock coats are ap propriate, the admiral will wear the' foregoing uniform with the exception : -of a word and belt Pn all service duty V . on board ship, aiid aj all times not proviueu ior uy we regulations ior uie foregoing uniforms, the admiral will wear the "service dress" uniform. Two uniforms are set for evening wear and are described as "A" and "B." ?A" i .wlU be .worn inithe evening on occa sions of ceremony to which the ad mlral may be lrjMted In his official ca pacity, and "Bjjjill be worn on Social occasions to JtelAiUi be may also be In Tited In his oftlllair capacity.

Half of the clothes he will never wear, but he must keep them on hand for the coming of the unexpected the bugaboo of official life and the bane of the man whose figure will change. FOR GOVERNOR OF KENTUCKY. State Pentvior "William Goebel,' the ' Caudidate of ths Democracy. - State Senator William Goebel, the nomiuee of the Democratic party for Governor of Kentucky, has taken an active part In politics since he ended his law studies. He has lived in Cov ington thirty-three years. Senator Goebel was born in Pennsyl vania and was brought to Covington by his parents in 1866. He was educated at Gambier College and at the Cin cinnati Law School. He has been a member of the State Senate for eight years, and was president pro tern, of that body for one session. He has led hot campaigns to carry through legisla tion as well as to secure his own elec tion. The present elections act in Ken tucky bears his cwn name, and was passed through his efforts a year ago. His fight for the repeal of the Southern Pacific's charter was a long and strong one. Mr. Goebel announced himself some time ago as a free silver, 16 to 1, Bryan man. Till then it had been very generally supposed he stood firmly for sound money. He la accounted one of the shrewdest politicians in Kentucky. Sarasate and Hts Imitator. Of Sarasate, the famous violinist, a pleasant story was told recently at a reception in Washington. The great master enjoys nothing better than giv ing or receiving a joke. Sometimes his bon mots are a trifle savage. One even ing at a social function a young violin ist who had a much higher opinion of his own musical ability than any one else, had the bad taste to play one of Sarasate's compositons with varia tions of his own creation. The latter, were Inappropriate and Inartistic, and jarred upon the ears of all. The performer ended his work and made his way to Sarasate, doubtless ex pecting a few words of recognition or praise. Sarasate said nothing, and the player finally asked, "I hope you recog nized that piece?" Sarasate promptly replied: "Certain ly. It was a piece of impertinence." An Old. Imng Island Tree. The "eagle tree" of East Moriches, L. I., an oak centuries old, is said to be dying. It had been occupied by a pair of bald-headed eagles' since the end of the last century, whether the same pair all this time is not sure, but such is the belief. The building of a railroad 100 yards from the tree drove them away awhile, but in 1887 they returned and the household was . maintained until ahu'nter wounded the male eagle so badly that he died at the foot of the tree which was his home. They say the hunter would have been lynched if he had been caught. Ospreys are said to have afterward occupied . the nest which the eagles abandoned, but this does not seem likely. The owner of the land where the tree grows says he does not own the tree, which had rights there before he came, and it shall nev er be cut down. New York Sun. Among tbe Birds.

A neat tribute was paid to the mem ory of Hugo Grotlus, the eminent Dutch scholar and father of Interna tional law, by the American delega tion at the peace conference at Th Hague, Holland, when our ambas sador to Germany, Andrew D. White, as head of tbe del egation, eulogized the famous Hol- Btroo orotiits. lander and placed a beautiful wreath of silver oak and laurel leaves upon bis tomb. It was meet that America " should thus honor the memory of Grotlus. and upon our national holiday; for the dis tinguished Hollander was the .pioneer In systematizing international . law, thereby minimizing the causes of dis putes among nations, which have re sulted In the past in so many horrible wars. Grotlus, who was born at Delft In 15S3, and who died in 1645, was the greatest scholar of his age. Not only was be erudite, but he was beside a philosopher, a historian, a theologian, a statesman and a jurist He was the author of many works which have been translated into nearly every Eu ropean language and into Oriental tongues as well. He was the first who Investigated the principles of interna tional law and attempted to reduce them to a system, and It is for this effort to bring better principles than those of his age into the Intercourse of nations, especially Into the laws of war, that he is chiefly remembered and honored to-day. As a classical Writer and student Grotlus had no peer in his time. His knowledge of Scripture was intimate. His treatise on the "Truth of Christian Religion" is reckoned the best "apol ogy" for Christianity in modern times, and almost in his own day was trans lated into English, French, German, Flemish, Persian, Arabic and Greek, NOVELTY IN SHIP PROPELLERS. Blades Are Made to "Feather," the fame an an Oar. The steamship propeller- now In use Is the best thing available for the pur pose, but it is not regarded as a perfect piece of mechanism, because Its effi ciency is somewhat hampered by. rea son of what Is known as a . "side thrust" A propeller designed to over come this has been made and patented by Edward F. Gorman and Penfleld F. Yost of Philadelphia. The power- is Imparted to the propeller by means of a hollow shaft through the center of which is a stationary shaft holding a cam arrangement buried in the center of the propeller hub. The blade spin dles are journaled within the hub and are fitted with pins, which fit in a cam groove and act as cranks, and as the pins move through this groove they FEATHERING Pl.OPKLLKB BLADES. are given a quarter turn .back : and forth, thus, imparting the feathering motion. Two of "the propeller blades are always in direct-action, presenting their width fully to the water, while as the third is returned against the stream it presents its edge, offering no resistance to the water. It Is designed to mount these prefer ably along the-side of the boat and their one great advantage is the facil ity offered for mounting several along the side of . the vessel. A boat thus fit ted will, by the positive action-of the blades, be prevented from- rolling to any great degree. . " V This Improvement is especially" ap plicable to war vessels, since' by the use of a number of these propellers along the sides of the vessel the latter may be maneuvered to much greater advantage than when only screw pro pellers are used at the stern.. GIGANTIC "GRAPE VINE. Santa Barbara County, CaL, Has the La r tees t in the World. ' Old age is telling upon .the big grape-, ylne in El Montecito Valley, a few miles from Santa Barbara. Cal. The Vina Vtaa tha iTIaflnAfUn r V. I' u.. lml uioiiui-uvru uciug LUC largest in the world, but it is rapidly dying. . The original "mother vine," as It was called,' died in 1875, and the year following it was taken to the Centen nial Exposition at Philadelphia. .The old vine stood near the younger one; it was three feet and ten Inches In cir cumference of trunk, and the spread ing branches . covered a trellis 75 feet square. The present vine Is only three j or four inches smaller in circumference tharf its parent, and it covers nearly as much space. Jt has produced four tons of grapes In a single season In its prime. It Is now nearly 100 years old. When the Montecito vine is gone Santa Barbara County will still claim the largest grapevine on earth; for-on a ranch In the Carplnterla valley there is growing thriftily a double vine said to come from a single stalk below the surface of the ground. This : double vine at Carplnterla Is over six feet in circumference. All of these big Santa Barbara vines are of the Mission va riety. The Christian Era.

OIL SPRINKLER FOR ROADS. Am Attachment for a Common Wagon Holding a Barrel. Recently civil engineers have given considerable attention to the applica tion of oils to the roadbeds of electric and wagon roads. The idea of using oil on roadbeds originated with the steam railroad corporations. The purpose was to prevent dust and foreign matter rising from the roadbed and getting Into the bearings and gearing of the rolling stock. But several other bene ficial results were obtained. After a roadbed Is sprinkled with a surfacing of oil the loose matter is not only so weighted and caked that it cannot rise and envelop wagons or carriages be hind In a cloud of dust but the bed Itself Is strengthened. The oils form with the earthy matter to a depth of three to five Inches, according to the treatment' and such parts of the bal last as are penetrated by the oils as sume a crusty condition, which is Im pregnable to rain and in a great meas ure is Impregnable to frost This state of the roadbed Is highly serviceable. Under ordinary conditions the earth as It naturally exists In a carriage road Is porous enough to receive and ertain oil to a depth of several inches. As oil and water do not combine, the moisture is driven off and the earth be comes compact to such an extent that any future doluge of water simply flows off over It In order to build up an oil-saturated surfacing of this.-type certain operations are followed.. Some have gone to considerable expense in the direction of sprinkling devices' for this work, while others use a simple oil sprinkling pipe leading from a cask or oil barrel, which Is conveyed over the road on a wagon. This barrel 1 provided with the necessary cohtro. ling devices, which are connected with a lever regulated by the driver. A form of sprinkling apparatus is joined to the bottom 'of the tank, as Iff the Illustra tion, and this sprays the oil' over the roadbed. Several trips are niade until the ballast Is saturated near the top, after-wnlch the crust forms, which will last for years before another treatment Is needed. Cheap grades of crude pe troleum are used. . , f The drawing shows the plan usually adopted for distributing oil jpver dirt roads. It consists In placing a barrel of crude 61L on blocks, upon a common wagon, which is drawn over the sec tions of the road which are to receive the oil. The barrel is placed bung down, and the pipe A is screwed In. This pipe can project ' downward through the wagon bottom or drop to the ground over the rear.x';The connect ing pipe is joined with the distributer, B. The latter Is simply a perforated pipe. If a road surface eighteen feet wide is to be covered, one barrel of crude oil will do for about eighty feei in length. . She Li 't Him Wear a Nightcap. To the Earl of Essex was granted the privilege of wearing a nightcap In the royal presence of Queen Mary, says the New York Telegram. The fact Is mentioned In Miss Strickland's "Lives of the Queens of England" as being one of .the, odd. reward, bestowed by Mary upon her friends after her acces sion. , f'"' . The Earl was a valetudinarian and had a great fear of uncovering his head. Considering, therefore, that the colds he dreaded respected no person, he pe titioned Queen Mary for leave to wear his nightcap In her' royal presence. The Queen not only gave him leave to wear one; 'but 'two nightcaps if he pleased. His patent for this priivlege Is unique In royal annals: "Know ye that we do grant to our well-beloved and trusty cousin and councillor, Henry, Earl of Sussex, license and nardon to wear his ;ap, cod'f or nightcap, or any two .of them at his pleasure, as well In our presence as In the presence of any oth er person within this realm, or In any other place In our dominions whatso ever during his life; and these our let ters shall ' be sufficient warrant In his behalf." . . The Queen's seal, with the garter above it, was affixed to this singular grant Three persons In Great Britain alone enjoy the privilege of remaining covered in the royal presence, namely: Lord Forester, Lord Kineale, and the master of Trinity College, Cambridge. .. - - . Lincoln's Pioneer. Abraham Lincoln's Western pioneer, always on the lookout for danger and ready to magnify it beyond Its true pro portions, is only one of a large class of people who use up, in one way and an other, a- good deal of vitality which might be profitably applied. : Mr. Lincoln's old backwoodsman had very . heavy. . .overhanging eyebrows, and wore big spectacles with brass rims. One day he came rushing into his cabin.' and seizing his rifle, aimed it carefully through a crack of the door at a great oak tree that stood near, and fired. "What Is it?" whispered his wife. "A wildcat Sairy, the orneriest wild cat you ever see, an' I missed him!" He hastily loaded and fired again, and then again. - "Now hold on, Joshua," said his good wife. "Let me look at you.

One of the best cosmetics for bicycle riders or persons upon the water, is fresh cucumber juioe. This will aid in keeping the skin of the face soft and smooth. To extract the juice from the cucumber, first peel it and then cut it into thick slices and press the juioe out with a lemon squeezer. A simple and harmless remedy for sunburn is to' bathe the face in buttermilk. ' The oil left from sardines is an ex cellent substitute for butter in mixing fish bakes. Pure grape juice, says an ..authority on foods, is invaluable in either sick ness or health. In fevers it is both food and medicine, and is more and more used by physicians. Oranges and pineapples make a delicious juioe, but the small fruits are more valuable. Currants, nsed alone or mixed with a third of raspberries, are more so; and the huckleberry and elderberry yield products not to be despised. Blackber ries, field or garden, are valuable me dicinal agents, and the poorest cherry, undatable as a fruit, becomes nectar when made into a drink.
