Bonaparte Blenkina ant on the vale of
tbe bc.1. He hud wonderfully rev I veil
slDce the day before, held his bead
high, talked lu a full, aonorous voice
and ate greedily of all the viands offer
ed him. At his side was a IuihIu of
soup, from which he took a deep draft
now and again as he watched the flu
tters of tbe German, who sat on the
mud floor before hlui incudisia. the bot
tom of a chair.
I'resently he looked out where. In
th afternoon sunalune, a few half
groan ostriches might tie seen wander
ing listlessly nliout and then he liNiksd
lu Ssaln at the IllUe whitewashed
Miiiii snd St Lyu.liill. who ant In the
iksirwsy lurking at a b.sk. Then he
raised his cliln uu.l tried to n.lj.iHt au
Itiiaglnary shirt collar. Klndlim none,
he ktiKHitlie.l the little gray fringe, at
ths back of his bend Snd la gan:
"Sou sre a tuih-iit of history, I per
ceive, my friend, from the study of
these volumes that He Scattered Shout
this spartmeiit. Tills fact hss Imm-u
mad evident to me."
"Well- little porhni It mSJ be,"
SSld ths Germnn meekly.
"Being a stu.lenl of history, then,"
SSld Bonnpartc, raising himself loftily,
"you will diubthH have heii'rd of my
great, of my celebrated, kinsman, Nay
IMileon llonnialrte?"
"tta, yes," said ths Germnn, look
ing up.
"I, sir," said Bonnpnrte. "was horn at
this hour on an April afterniHin thres
sud fifty years ago. The nurse, sir
Sb was the same who attended when
ths Puke ot stutnsrlsad Ws ou.u
brought me to my mother. There Is
only one tisme for this child,' she said.
'He ha the nose of his great kinsman,'
snd so Honspnrte Bletiklns became my
name Bonnpnrte Blenkina Yes, sir,"
ssid Bonsimrto, "there Is a stream on
my maternal side that connects me
With s stream on his maternal side."
The German made a sound of astoa
islimeot. "The connection," ssid Bonsparts,
is one which could not be easily com
prehended by one unuccuHtnmed to the
study of aristocratic pedigrees, but the
connection is close."
"Is It poHxihle?" snld the German,
pausing In his work with much interest
snd aHtonlMhmeut "Napoleon sn Irish
man I"
"Yes," snld Bonnpnrte, "on the moth
er's side, snd thnt Is how we are re
lated. There wasu't a mnn to Iwat
blm," said Bonaparte, stretching him
self, "not a man, except the Duke of
Wellington. And it's a Strsnge coinci
dence," sdded Bounpsrte, beudlng for
ward, "but he was S connection of
niln. His nephew, th Duk of Wl
llnatoo s nephew, married a cousin of
Oilne. Phe wns S woman! 8oe her St
one of the court balls-smlier satin,
daisies In her hair! Worth going a
hundred mll.S to lak at herl Often
Seen her there myself, sir!"
The Germnn moved th kather
tbons In and out snd thought of ths
Strang vicissitudes of human lifs
Which might bring ths kinsmen of
duke Sjh) emperors to his buuibla
email.
Bonapsrt ailearfl lost among eld

"Ah, thst DukS of Wellington's

Bonnpnrte Blenkina waited lo ob

Then he took out s dirty white hand

more especially his eyes.
"It always affects me to relate that

called by It That man, that man, who
but for me would have perished In tbe
pathless wilds of Itnssla, that man Id

The Germnn looked up. "Ifes," said
Bonaparte, "I had money, I bad lands.
I said to my wife: There Is Africa, a
struggling country. They want capi
tal; they waut men of talent; they
want men of ability to open up that
kind. Let us go.'
"I bought 8,000 worth of machinery

Ho ssylng, he sdjusted bis bat care
fully on the bald crown of hie hesd
snd moved to tbe door. After b bad

work:
"Ah. Ia.rd! So It is! Ah!"

When the Germnn looked Op next,
there was a look of supreme satlsi'ae
tion In the little nmutb snd the beauti

"What dost see. chicken T he asked.
The child said nothing, and an ag
onizing hr1 was borne on toe-afternoon
breexe.
"O God, my God.sl am killed!" cried
the voice of Bonirfarte as be, with

"When I looked round," snld Bona

laid Bonnpnrte, suddenly growing
fAInt "always delicate, highly strung.

ThS Sid Germnn hurried away to ths
UolIelf an, took from behind the
boi'l A email bottle, half of wli.ee
contests be poured luto a cup. Boua-
sartseMined Iteaeerly.
"Hei do you Peel now?" asked tbe
Gatrmaa. I.nllug at blm wltb much
ymssy.
"A llttls. Hejhtly. better."
ThS German went out to pick up the
bsttsrsd chimney pot whlcb bud fallen
before the door.
"I sm aorry you got the frliriit Tbe
birds sre bad things till you know
them," be Said sympathetically aa be
put the hat down.
"My friend," snld Bonaparte, holding
out big band. "I forgive you. Do not
be dlstuibed. Whatever the conse
quences, I forgive you. I know, I be
lieve. It was with no III intent that yon
allowed me to go out. Give me your
band. I have no ill feeling, none!"
"You are very kind." snld the Oer
msn, taking the extended hand and
feeling suddenly convinced that he was
receiving mngnnnlniotis forgiveness for
some gresi injury; "you are very
kind."
"Don't mention It" said Bonaparte.
He knocked out the crown of his
caved In old hat placed It on the table
before blm, leaned his ellxiws on the
table and his face in his hands and
foiitc mplati ! it.
"Ah, my old fi-ien.l" he Hum apos
trophized the hat "you hnve served
me loug, you have served me faithful
ly, but the last day has come! Never
u.nre shall you be borne upon the bead
of your master; never more ahull you
protect hla brow from the burning rays
of summer or the cutting winds of
Winter. Henceforth bnrehended must
your master go. Goodby, goodby, old
bat!"
At the end of this affecting appeal
tbe Germnn rose. He went to tbe box
at tbe foot of his bed. Out of It be
took a black bat which had evidently
been seldcnn worn and carefully pre
served. 1 - i - -
"It's notectly what you may have
been accustomed to," he snld nervous
ly, putting It down beside the battered
chimney pot "but It might be of some
use, a protection to the bead, you
know."
"My friend," said Bouaparto, "you
sre not following my advice. You are
allowing yourself to be reproached on

SHS OS HIS KEIOKB.
To make 8 bley appear as tbe hero
of Santiago (hat gentleman's friend-,
and advocati a have seen lit to repre
sent Sampson as a narrow, cold, and
jealous officer, ever Intent on magni
fying his ow ii exploits and on ls
liltling the exploits of others. News
papers friendly lo Schley have not
hesitated to assail outrageously both
Sampson and his career lu Ihe nrtvy.
Nevertheless, Sampson, like Schley,
muet be judged on his record.
Tbruout a year of controversy
"kjrapson sgid nol one word, lie is
undoubted!' hs great a favorite it.
Net Yor I Schley Is in Maryland,
ut he ha( made no tours to invite
egpresMons of public .'pinion. He
afe) not posed at any lime us a naval
hero, lie simply has gone about
his o?n business iu silence, leaving
his conduct lo speak for itself. In
this respect he has acted iu strict se
wn d with his previous career.
Sampson eiilrred the naval acad
emy withou' Militicai or family in
fluence. He was a poor boy. 11'
had to make his own way. He did
so well In the academy that he It fl
it at the hesd of his class. He was
at once assigned to duty in the civil
war. Again he did his whole duly
without a single friend iu political
life, and only such naval friends as
he won by his conduct.
When Ihe Patspsco was ordered
into Charleston harbor to remove
the mines, Sampson called for volun
teers sud set out lo perfolm his tank.
When the enemy opened with a
murderous Are he ordered nil of his
men below. When the l'ataco
waa destroyed by the explosion of a
mine, Sampson, with his crew were
thrown eighty feet in the air. When
he came dowu to water it was with
an order for those who could swin lo
look after the men who had gone
down.
This was adramH(ic Inci.knt, but
its main influence on Sampson was
to make him, not a poser before the
public, but a student of explosives
used 'ma naval warefare, and Ihe
methods of construction calculated
to resist such explosives. When the
Mulno was blown up in Havana har
bor he was made president "of Ihe
hoard of investigation because he was
recognized as authority the world
over in Ihe construction of modern
war vessels. After Slecard retired
from Ihe command of the North At
lantic squadron, Sampson, as senior
captain wilh the squadron, succeeded
temporarily to the command. Con
sequently , when the naval board oi
strategy recommended that Sampson
be given permanent command of Ihe
squadron, tbe recommendation was
received with satisfaction by all the
officers of the fleet.
In charge ot the squadron, Samp
son performed every duty without
ostentation. He conducted all the
operations to tbe satisfaction of the
government and his subordinates.
There was no complaint from any
quarter. It is admitted that his
orders for the pursuit and blr.ckaile
of Cervera's fleet were' beyond criti
cism. All the captains under his
command at Santiago stood fast for
him in the controversy perclpltated
by Schley's friends.
It is a mistake to say that Sampson
claimed anything. It is a mistake lo
say that he criticised Schley. Asked
for a definite opinion as to Schley's
admitted disobediitnce of orders, he
requested that he be excused from
passing uon thecom'uet of sn officer
who at once outranked him in the
naval registry. In a contl.leuUI din
patch he spoke of reprehensive con
duct. This was his only offending.
In all the controversy that has fol
lowed he has not once been before
the public. He has not said one
word in his own defense.
Those who are fan. lllar with our
hintory wid Mud almost an exact
parallel to Sampson's case In that ol
General Grant. Attacked during
and after the war by General MiC'lel
lan's friends, (."rant remained silent
and did his duty. Sampson in Ihe
last few months has pursued the pol
icy of Grant; Schley that of Me
ad Ian. r
Some ol Schley's friends now pie
that the Sam peon -Schley contro
versy has demorrlixed the navy. lf
so, who is lo blameT Certainly not
Ham-mon. His course could not in
jure the navy because it has been ab
solutely correct Becoming to the
strictest and highest standards of
naval ct 'duct. The injury, U
there he any, has , come from the
other side. Only gross Ignofan.si can
blink this fact. Inter ocean.

hardly quicker than wss Dewey him
jo9f to rebuke Ihelr onslsughts on bis
privale life. Now trie American
tieople are to sit In Judgment on the
controversy. Nfcat then verdict

will be N not in doubt. They will
agree that the h-uise ami its ia-long-lugs
might best Is- thru! bsck in
scorn on the vituperative dunnr.
The house episode Is, at its worst,
a trifling affair. Tho real friends and
admirers of Admiral Dewey un
doubtedly weie disappointed when
the gift was handed over iu haste to
Mrs. Iewey. llut, after all. the feel
ing was only disiii.iintmeiit. It
was not enmity or distrust, nor can
it ever become such. The gleeful
sbusiveness of a few persons in
Washington and New England is not
American public, sentiment In this
or any other case. Thatik heaven,
the nation has not sunk to such a
level and cannot sink to it as long as
Dewey's achievements la-lung to a
living generation of his countrymen.
Admiral Dewey not only won tiie
grealest uaval battle of modern times
but h re maided at his post for over
a year, husbanding the results y(
that battle, until his administrative
work aim. I iqtialed in splendor and
importance the immediate eH'eets of
his great victory. He st.ssl fast,
month after month, Ihe central fig
ure in a turmoil of European diplo
macy, unmoved by threat, un.lis-
miyed by complications, patient
u ul r trial, conrsg "ous and deter-
miu.'ii. He h! : .1 la-d all III ii-i
mouths without one word of com
plaint and he came lion o only when
the Philippines were ours, when Ihe
flag had been raised never to come
down.
Nothing that Admiral Dewey
may do can miike tho Americau peo
ple forget these things. Nothing in
his personal life can dim the glory
of such achievements or lessen Ihe
gratitude of the nation for llietn. To
be sure, there are men who will
make the most of Admiral Dewey's
slightest mistake. There- are men
who wish that his squadron had
been driven from Manila by the
Spanish fleet. There are men who
oiM-nly regret his victory in Manila
bay and )siity demand that its con
sequences be mt .lo as if they had not
been, llut these men are few in
numliers though loud in voice. They
are sure to 1 overwhelmed and lost
in the great body of tho American
people when the nation rises to con
demn the present outrage on the here
of Manila buy.
Admiral Duwey should know that
the American sspe have not for.

assure him of their faithful and

Prof. Lisniiis finds that iu the
United Slates a low pressure ares,
with only one system of cyclonic
winds frequently has a diameter of
1,1)00 miles, and that cyclones over
the Atlantic frequently have diam
eters of 2000 miles. Widespread
areas of low barometer, having sev

have a diameter of 0,000 miles, or
may even form a belt extending
nearly, if not eiitinly around Hie
globe, between the parallels of 40

the other hand, tropical cyclones are
often only 500 miles, or even less in
