tory—T‘he Raleigh Honored.
‘ NEW YORK, May
the country yesterday was fittingiy 0b—
scrved as Dewey day. In schools,
churches, clubs and private residences
old and yo ung- sang the praises of the
great admiral under 11hose diiection
such a signal victory over the Spanish
fleet we -s won in Manila bay just a year
ago. Nature smiled on the celebrations.
Finer 11 eather could not have been de-
sired.
P1actically unknown to a majority of
his fellow citizens and seldom heard of
until the beginning of the war, Admiral
Dewey has become a great popular
hero, fairly idolized in all parts of the
Union.~
Four hundred thousand school chil-
dren in this city were told how Dew-
ey’s words, “You may fire when ready,
Gridiey,” began a new page of history
and how, 11 hen the American guns
stopped speaking, every ship in Monto-
jo’ s fleet had been sunk or captured.
By special legislative enactment some
states have made the day a legal holi-
day, but in New York no concerted ac-
tion was taken by state or municipality

of education, was requested to make the

children’s mind a lesson of patriotism
was to have part of the day devoted to
appropriate exercises in the schools.
At sunrise the stars and stripes were
hoisted on all the forts and warships in
New York waters. Salutes were fired
from the forts, and at noon, the ap—
pointed hour, yachts in the harbor
boomed out a salute. - =
The Day In Philadelphia.
PHILADELPHIA, May 2.—A most
notable demonstration occurred in this
city. The cruiser Raleigh, the only one
of Dewey’s victorious ships yet return-
ed, was the central figure in the cele-
bration arranged by the officials and
prominent citizens of the city. Previous
to the naval parade Governor Stone and
Mrs. Stone, Mayor Ashbridge and Mrs.
Ashbridge and a'number of other state
and municipal ofiicials boarded the Ra-
leigh. As the governor stepped on the
warship the governor’s salute of 17 guns
was fired. The visitors, after shaking
hands with Captain Coghlan and his
staff officers, were shown about the ves-

rangle club of the University of Chi—

College Boys Remember.
NEW HAVEN, May 2.—The Yale stu-
dents celebrated Dewey day in a man-
her that recalled the noisy demonstra-
ti on of a year ago just prior to the for-
mation of the Yale battery. The pro-
cession that paraded the campus and
adjoining street Was perhaps the lar-
gest of: years and for noise and enthu-
siasm has seldom been equaled.
Holidny In California.
SAN FRANCISCO May 2.—The 1st of
May having been made by act of the
legislature a state holiday, special ex-

WHEN RIWOMEN supp. "
EAccOrding to a Male Observer They
All Have a. Fierce, Worried,
Far-Away Look.
A11 observant .man says that the
women who shop all have the same ex-
pression. It is a weird look, worried
and far away, but fierce, says the New
York Commercial-Advertiser. It em-
braces details, prices, colors, cuts,
shapes, flowers and feathers in one
glance. It isa ' look that appraises and
decides. The fabi 1c garment or hat
that can face that look without wilting
deserves admiration and respect. The
bonnet. that can return that look with-
out lowering its roses or showing the
white feather is 11 orth anv price,
whether it comes from Si: {th avenue
or the Rue de la I‘aix.
Even the meek, mild and w eak 111cm
an whose voice is like a summer zephyr
looks fiery and forbidding 11hen she is
prowling around a shop, selecting, cal-
culating and doing mental arithmetic.
There is an intense detachment about
her, an intense concentration, that ren-
ders her for the moment almost great,
no matter how little and inoifensive she
may be on ordinary occasions.
She may be the lamb at home, but
she is the lion of the shop. The pas-
sion of shopping clothesher in dignity
and wraps her in celestial fire. She
runs against you full tilt, but frequent-
' 1y does not see you. She treads on your
toes, jabs you in the ribs with her
elbow, pushes you out of your place
at a counter and swings the doors in
your face. She doesn’t mean it. She
is oblivious of you. She neither seer
nor hears nor thinks of you. You are
only a' man; you are for afternoon or
evening wear.
PRACTICE SEOGTIN G.
the majestic, of the English
Navy, Is a Favorite Type
for Imitation.
Vv‘ 11y
In practicing shooting, made to re
semble service conditions as nearly as
possible, the British navy attains an
average of 30 per cent. of effective hits,
but no one expects this average to be
maintained during the excitement of
an action, says Cassier’s Magazine. If
the Olympia had maintained this aver-
age at Manila she would have made
96 citective hits, or enough to have de-
stroyed the whole Spanishfieet sin-
gle-handed. It is, therefore, in the
opinion of Sir “William \Vhite and his
fighting chiefs at the admiralty, not
so much a matter of the number of guns
as the excellence of the shooting with
those that are provided. Moreover,
with six—inch quick—fire guns, using 750
pounds of shot and cordite every min—
ute, it becomes a matter of practical
difficulty to keep more than a. certain
number of guns supplied.
It is to Sir \Villiam White’s credit that
amid all the mechanical complexities
of the modern warship, he ne1 LI‘ lost
