has proved himssli an odiesr of more
than usual executive ability. That is
probably the reason why he was selected
by the Secretary of the Navy to command
the North Atlantic squadron. to welcome
the oflccrs of the foreign men-of-war at
Hampton Roads and to arrange the
details of the great natal parade that
lg: place in New York harbor in April,
The thousands who witnessed that
event will always remember it as a great
marine spectacle, but only‘thoss in touch
and the executive ability and diplomacy
that was required to carry it to a success-
ful issue.
in detaching Rear-Admiral Ghsrardl
from the commend of the North Atlantic
squadron on May 90, 1&8, Secretary Ber-
bert paid him the following compliment:
"Since the creation of the rank you so
honorably enjoy no oiilcer oi the United
States Navy has ever held commend oi a
fleet for so long a period as that which
will be terminated by the department’s
order of this date. You have bad the
singular felicity of closing your career
afloat by organizing and successfully cone
ducting an international review and land
parade at once unique and in manyro-
specie unprecedented. The department
congratulates you upon the manner in
which you have discharged the difficult
and delicate duties imposed upon you by
this noval undertaking."
Secretary Benjamin 1“. Tracy. in Sep
temher, 1880, had occasion to compliment
Gherardl on his courage and discretion
during the critical period of the liaytlsu
revolutiob.

their appreciation of the American Ad-

“The sea is full oi strange things," said
a retired navel ofiloer the other evening,
"and a man in sailing around the globe
sees many‘striking noielties. but to my
mind the most curious and interesting in-
habitant oi the salt deep is the archer

“The feeding habits peculiar to each

mouth exactly shaped and fitted for that
special work, as can be seen by glancing
at the mouth oi any oi the sucker tami-

as blues. mackerel, bass. and sharks.
which are wide, deep-jawed, and ‘ armed
with sharp teeth to grip and hold the
prey, and so with all varieties oi creno

“This archer or jaculator fish'haunts

and the Malay Archipelago, occurring in
fresh water streams that open into the
sea as well as in" the salt water. The
name has been earned by its way of cap-
turing insect food. The‘ method is to

An Experiment that Will Now be Tried
in Colorado.
Three women will assist the Colorado
men to revise the old laws and iorm new
ones at the next session of the State As.
sembly, which meets in the new State
House. it will be a curious coincidence
that when the State officials for the first
time assume their duties in the beautiful
new Capitol. among them will be found
a woman oillcebolder. and that. at the first
session of the Assembly to meet. in the
granite pile on Capitol Hill three women
will take their seats in the House oi
Represcnlaid’l'cs. The society woman of
Capitol liill. by making politim a social
and a popular matter, made this result
possible. The next Superintendent of
Public instruction, Mrs. Angonettc .T.
T’cuvoy, owes her position cniiroly to the
women who took such a decided stand
for representation in the Republican
State Convention. Two yours ago the
Republican managers promised the ofiicc
to a public school man of markdd ability
because he at. that time withdrew to bar-
monize certain factions in the party. but
the new demand for representation made
by the women forced the delegates in the
Convention this year to ignore the ad-
mitted obligations due the man.
That Mrs. l’envcy will bring consider
«his executive ability to the post» all who
know the lady admit, but whether it is
possible for a woman to deal in a practical
manner with the obligations n-qulrcd by
virtue of that office remains to be demon-
strated. The retiring incumbent is what
is known as a rank Populist, whose ad-
ministration has llt‘t‘ll notorious for in—
competency and alleged corruption. Even
Waite could not stand the man, and ur-
. cred him under penalty oi criminal
prosu-ution to withdraw from the race-
for ri-uomiuntion.
Mrs. l’l-avy is a duscrndunt ol' the T'p~
