ItfS t m T m *~ Great Parade of Warships In Honor of Dewey \t New York. NATION PAYS GLORIOUS TRIBUE TO MANILA HERO Over a Million People Witness the Grand and Inspir. ing Scene Ashore and Aboard. The great naval parade in honor of Admiral Dewey occurred at new York Friday aftornoon. No victorious king or prince, com ing home from a successful war, ever received such a magnifiicent ovation ao overwhelmed the hero of Manili Hay as he stood on the bridge of the Olympia at the bead of a magnifiicent fleet of steel thunderera of the deep, followed by a thousand vessels of peace, each tiered and coated with people, and sailed over the waters of the upper bay and up the broad path- j way of the sunlit river, whose banks were gay with millions of flags and streamers dancing in the wind. The weather was ideal, the water i was rippled under the fit ih wind that j held out flags straight end jaunty, and ' the wharves and piers and rocky ! heights and grassy knolls were black j with frantic, enthusiastic people, who strived weakly to make their shouts hear<l above the perfect bedlam of tooting whistles that accompanied the admiral ashore and afloat. As the tomb of General Grant oil Riverside driveway was reached, the j fleet paid its tribute to the memory of LATEST PICTURE OF ADMIRAL DEWEY. the great warrior with a national salute of twenty-ono roaring guns. The fleet, then anchored and reviewed the almost endless procession of craft that steamed past, so burdened with humanity that thoy looked as if they would turn tur tle before they got back to their piers. Toward the end the pnrado became disorganized, and it took hours for the heterogenous flotilla to get by. Dark ness at last brought relief to the tired admiral, who had stood on the bridge for six hours bowing his acknowl edgments to the stentorian expression of homage. ltMnnrkahle Wat tit a Demonstration. New York has never witnessed be fore anything approaching such a won derful, remarkable demonstration. The Columbian naval parade, tlio ded ication of Grant’s tomb and the recep tion of the North Atlantic squadron last fall, all pale before this gigantic ovation to the sailor, who, in a single morning, destroyed an enemy’s fleet without the loss of a man or a ship. It is uot beyond the mark to say that three million people viewed tbo pa geant trom ashore and that a quarter of a million were afloat. When New York turned out to the oelebration Friday morning a light haze hung over the harbor, but this ■was soon dissipated by the bright sun which bathed sea and city in its bril liant radiauce. Ml UK ADVISES GEORGE. Senator Given Notice That Admiral Won’t 11* l*reniln!ial t'amllilut*. Tho Pittsburg Post publishes the following: “United States Senator Mark Hanna pays this of the possibility of Admiral Dewey for the presidency: “ ‘The practice of continually plac ing the nniue of Admiral Dewey on the prospective list of presidential candi dates is indecent. It is an insult und gvcat injustice to the hero of Manila bay himself, as he has frequency said that nothing in the world would in duce him to run for president or any other political office. ” VISAS OPENS CAMPAIGN. Democratlr l)nn<lldntp l ? or Governor of Ohio Mnk*A Great S^eoch. The democratic state campaign wae opened at Hamilton,o., Satnrday with a great demonstration and speeches by John R. McLean, candidate for governor, and tho candidates for other offices on the democratic state ticket anil others. Great interest was manifested in Mr. McLean s speech and be deliver- great power in the presence thousand people, who cheer- NAlepeatedly. People who went down the bay were 1 lost in admiration of the display of j bunting along the water front. On East river from the bridge to the j battery where the sailing craft lay in ' droves the spars were covered with I such a mass of color as might be com ; pared to a maple grown hillside in the ; <!op autumn. The tall spars of the ! clippers were conspicuous for their j euxigns and signals. Every craft in ; the harbor was decked out from stem ! to stern with all the grace and attrac ! tiveness known to shippers. It was exactly 1 o’clock, the hour fixed for the start, when the fleet, with anchors shore-hove, began to move. The ships had swung to the flood tide mid wero pointing down stream. They faced about as on pivots, and headed for the Hudson, followed by the long line of vessels in civic parade. When the ships had straightened out for their journey across the upper hay, the spectacle they made will ever he treasured in the memory of those who saw it. FarrHffiit'ft Flair Unfurled. Just as the signul to weigh anchor was given, a pull on the halyards opened the roll and spread the four starred flag which Farragut flew as he ran the fort in New Orleaus. It was the flag which was presented to Admi ral Dewey. As it broke upon the breeze, sailors at their stations aud the marines on the quarter deck greet ed it with the hip, hip, hooray we got from our ancestors. The flag floated proudly all through the pageant. On the north beam of the Olympia was the escorting ship Sandy Hook, with the mayor and other dignitaries aboard, and in her wake at intervals of 4t)o yards, stretched out a mile long, were the great towering war ships, the armored cruiser New York, the battleships Indiana aud Massa chusetts, cruisor Brooklyn, second class battleship Texas, the old wooden Lancaster, the gunboat Marietta and the Chicago, the flagship of the South Atlantic squadron. Old glory fluttered from each rnast head and laffrail. On each quarter of the New York were the black low lined torpedo boats, three on each side. The rest of the procession trailed out for miles. Slowly aud ma jestically the procession moved. Admiral Dewey went up on the after i e us soon as the start was made , and remained there throughout the pa j rads, a heroic figure outlined against . the skies for the thousands afloat and ashore. JACKIES ENJOY SMOKED. Sailors ;:•<! Marino* Uovnlly l'ntertainod at tho Waiitorf>Aatoria. The sailors of the Olympia bad * nigh* of joy in New York Saturday ui a fitting end to their day of triumph. Its chief pleasures were a supper, con cert and smoker served to them iu that order iu the Waldorf-Astoria. They were there 250 strong, on shore leave, and free of ail restrictions. With them were twenty-live men from each of the other ships at anchor iu the river, good fellows all, and selected on that account. The jaekios enjoyed tho program immensely. They applauded each act vigorously. NEAL’S SHORTAGE PAID. ill* Koutliimpn Semi Their Check* To the /Morney General. A Colnir.’jin, S.

Colonel Wylie Jones, cashier of the Carolina National bank, sent the attorney general his check for £037.47. and P. 11. Haltiv.anger and W. Scott Pope, the other two bonds men, did likewise.

Though the sou and grandson of men of immense wealth, Mr. Vanderbilt began as a hank clerk after a common school education, and underwent a useful training in industry and independence. Ilis fortune is estimated at 3125,000,000, though it is impossible to know the exact amount. Tlio total inheritance tax to be paid to the Nation and State out of the Vanderbilt estate has been esti mated at from 33,500,000 to 35,000,000. W-HAT NOBLE MEN AND WOMEN ARE OOiNS FOR THE CUBAN REPUBLIC. The Cuban Orphan Fund, which is now fully started and doiug good ■work among the orphaned children of the “reconceutrados” of Cuba, is really the outcome of the American Commission to Cuba last fail, prior to the raising of the American flag over the island. The organization is entirely non sectarian; the children are cared for physically and mentally, entirely ir respective of any religious sect. Their condition is pitiable, and the neces sity for bettering it is imperative. The men at the head of the fund are men who have personally cone in contact with the misery, poverty and utter destitution of the children of Cuba. These men are intelligent, farsee ing, and fully appreciative of the benefit which must eventually accrue to the United States if these orphans are properly educated and trained. There is to be no attempt made to Jjj MISS LEVY AND HER SUN-BURNED PETS. proselytize them, beyond teaching them to be moral aucl honest. To better understand tho terrible condition of the peasants of Cuba, who are the ones now being benefited, a few quotations from the report of one of the American Commission sets the facts more plainly before the pub lic. He says: “Cuba was not Bartering from a commercial or financial panic. It was in a state.of utter prostration and col lapse. Business and agricultural life hail long ceased. The whole island 1 was dead. “Even now the result of Weyler’s order of reconct-nuiUion is uot under fit liAliL, Mil i)Slniil}i Uli I.

Should the commanding general iu the American Army issue au order the re sult of which would be that one could t.avel from New York to Rochester and not see one cow, not one chicken, not one farm house, not one man working in the fields, it would be something similar to the result of General Weyler’s reconceutration or der in Cuba. { 18t5ffl ? l “The whole rural life of three great provinces—Havana, Matanzas and Santa Clara—was absolutely blotted out. Occasionally a clump of banana trees, whose roots had escaped the lire, or a scarlet creeper, would show where a farm house had stood; but the tropical growth quickly covered the ruins. It was inconceivable that in the midst of this teeming vegeta tion the country should be a desert, for no sign of human life appeared. “On the contrary, every town and citj- visited was thronged with beg gars, many of them emaciated aud gaunt; women, children, cripples and a few broken-spirited men; and the dreadful odor of every place occupied by Spanish soldiers. There was no deceucy, there was no sanitation; in our sense of the word, indeed, there was no discipline. It was a wanton and profligate devastation in the time of peace.” Amid all this misery, and herding together like cattle, wore the little children, the future citizens of Cuba, whether as a republic or as a part of the United States. And it was for the upbringing ami developing of the future generation of the island that the Cuban Orphan Belief Fund was started. Mr. Charles IV. Gould, who is very prominently connected with the fund, made a remark a few days %go which corroborates a statement made by a Catholic priest, who hadjust returned from Havana, as to The patriarchal system in Cuba. Mr. Gould said: “i never saw anything to equal the love and sacrifice of the Caban parents. The men died first, the women followed, and it is the children who are left.” These remarks give an idea of what HKs ■Pint BF'l 1 :: iP * • rfm ADVANCED ENGLISH CLA33. £."*”■ ' ‘ "Wilson, and these three brave jvomen, to use the words of one of the " prominent members of the fund, “are n ioing as true missionary work as any ever did.” v Miss Gill writes: Vln Sancti Spiritus we found a condition of suffering which is much more serious than anything which we have seen before. There are over four hundred children who need to he taken care of right away, and the town has only been able to provide for twenty-five little girls, who were selected because they were physically worse off than anybody else in town. Although they have now been cared for nearly six weeks, they are still mere little skeletons, and almost make one doubt whether it was any kindness to help them to live a few years longer.” Mis3 Gill’s last report gives most encouraging news: “We may now count that the Santa Maria del Rosario work is established. It is, as you know, of a purely settle ment character, with headquarters in a house rented from ex-Governor I Mora, in which Miss Levy and Mrs. Bar3aga, her Cuban assistant, reside and in which the kindergarten will be held for the present. “The house has been furnished, and the women are thoroughly installed in their new home. The boys of the town have come in quite large num bers, requesting instruction, and sev eral women have been in to ask if they might be taught to sew and clean and work according to our American methods. The little children simply SCHOOL Folt ADVANCED GILLS, swarm around the house. The Mayor, General Boze, of the Cuban army, will have a tract of municipal land plowed up for them with the town oxen, and Miss Levy is going to give them seeds an l simple little tools and arrange for a man to advise them about simple crops, hoping that in this way she may come to influence their diet and, to some extent, their housekeep ing ideas.” It has been urged by many that the directors of the Cuban Orphan Fund are wasting an unnecessary amount of money on thoir plant—i. e., the pur chase of buildings for homes, orphan asylums and schools. This is not the case, as the buildings which are set tled and used for this purpose are prac tically given for the purpose. The pictures here presented were all taken on the spot, and show the practical good which is being done by the representatives of the fund. Anjllmi in I.wplnnd. Enthusiasts in the gentle art ot angling will be interested in the rec ords of a recent expedition to Lapland. It is an uncomfortable and expensive voyage, and the entire absence of any proper food in the country renders it necessary to take everything which the ordinary civilized being may re quire. Bnt in these days of condensed nourishment of all kinds that is not a very formidable matter. On arriv ing at their destination the party of two rods and their followers found the river frozen so that thoy had to sit down patiently on the banks aud wait for a thaw. When that came there was too much water, aud fishing was an impossibility. But when the river got into condition they had grand sport. They fished for eleven days, and during that time the two rods got a total of 282 salmon and 155 grilse, in all weighing nearly 5000 pounds. The best day’s catch for one rod was thirty-three salmon and twenty-two grilse, weighing 553 pounds in all. —- London Telegraph. Raiding Reindeer For Canning.
