Not only were the society people of Richmond present, but many out-of-town guests were also In attendance. Jleidlebrg's orchestra of Dayton, furnished the music. The Coliseum was lighted by Japanese lanterns, giving a most IVautiful and weird effect. The orchestra platform at the west end of the Coliseum, was tastily decorated with palms and ferns, which afforded a complete screen to the musicians. The boxes were filled while a large number of people found scats In the balcony. The box parties were composed of the following: Box No. One; Mr. and Mrs. George Cates, Mr. and Mrs. L. M. Jones Mr. and Mrs. Charles ShiveIey, Mr. and Mrs. Omar Hollings worth, Mrs. George Love and Miss Al Ice Forkner. Box No. Two: Mrs. J. R.

C, and Mr. John Ratliff of Spiceland. One of the most noticeable and attractive features of the evening . was the delightful gowns worn by the la dies. All were superb. In addition to being a success as a society event, it is understood that quite a neat sum was cleared by the ladies of the Flower Mission, which will be used to carry on their work during the coming year.

TIIE OLD NIAGAEA. PERRY'S FLAGSHIP IN THE BATTLE OF LAKE ERIE.

B ESIDES making ao a pproprlation for the rebuilding of the bulk o- the old Constitution, the l?.st con gress provided for the preservation of another hip forever associated with the most heroic achieve ments cf Ameri can naval fight ers. This is the A. L. BATES. Niagara, flag ship of Commodore Oliver Hazard Ferry after he left the Lawrence In the celebrated battle of Lake Erie la the autumn of 3S13, just ninety -three years ago. Sentiment In fa vor of preserving relics connected with leading events of the country's history Las grown very strong In recent years, There Is much romance in. the history of Commodore Perry, and it was on the Niagara that he won the victory over the British. For some years suc ceeding the war of 1S12 the Niagara was used as a receiving ship, but, becoming too old and dilapidated for that purpose, was sunk in Lake Erie, off the city of Erie, in what is known as Mis ery bay. For many years even the resting place of the old hulk was for gotten, but In 1999 Representative 8. A. Davenport of the Erie district called public attention to the fact that the Niagara lay substantially Intact at the bottom of Misery bay, and his successoi In congress, Arthur L. Bates, Introduc ed a bill in 1902 providing for raising and rehabilitating the ship and placing It In a permanent building of brick and stone on the grounds of the Soldiers and Sailors home at Erie. This became a law at the last session of con gress, $20,000 being appropriated for the purpose. The victory of Perry on Lake Erie has been celebrated time and again In song and story, and Irving Bacheller, in "Drl and I," has given one of the most graphic descriptions written of what took place on that eventful day in 1813. Perry's victory was the more notable on account of the extraordinary obstacles he had to encounter In building his fleet, enlisting and training his men and finally on account of the fact that he was ill of a fever when the battle was fought. At the beginning ; of the battle on Sept. 10 his flagship was the Lawrence, and his fighting burgee bore the dying words of the brave commander for whom the vessel was named, "Don't give up the ship!" So well did her men observe this motto that the Lawrence sustained the concentrated fire of her foes for two hours, nntil every gun she had was rendered useless and only a fraction COMMODORE PERKY AND SCENE IN BATTLE OF LAKE EKIB WHEN EE TRANSFEBBBD TO TBS NIAGARA. of her crew remained on deck. The carnage was1 terrible. His young broth er was struck and lay stunned as If dead. When he saw that to remain on the LawrenCe was to lose the day, perry determined on transferring to the Niagara. This astonishing feat he at once performed, leaving the Law rence In a small boat at 2:30 p. m. and rowing to the Niagara amid a del uge of shot from the enemy. Proudly standing up In the boat with his com mander's pennant, eo that the Amer icans in ice otner snips . might . see him and be reassured, he arrived safe ly at the Niagara's gangway and took command. In about seven minutes from the time the fight was thus re opened and about fifteen minutes from the time Perry reached the Niagara Ihe first of the English vessels struck her colors. A few minutes later all resistance on the part of the British squadron had ceased, and Perry, with his fleet, was master of Lake Erie. Then he sent the historic message to General William Henry Harrison, com manding the United States land forces. "We have met the enemy, and they are ours two ships, two brigs, one schooner, one sloop. Tours with very great respect and esteem. O. H. Perry." England had lost an entire squadron by surrender, and her humiliation at being whipped by these untrained, raw Americans was great. Ferry was only twenty-seven when he won this victory. He was greatly honored by congress and the people dnd died of yellow fever in the West Indies In 1819. Manrbmriaa Doct. In Manchuria dogs are raised for their skins. A fairly prosperous Manchurian dog farmer will own a thousand or more dogs. The words "scot rrecr t s.. from ancient Anglo-Saxon. Scot In this sense comes from the old English word ficeot, meaning a portion of tribute or taxation, and it Is still In use in the Scandinavian languages to signify treasure. In modern English, however, it occurs in only two expressions, the legal phrase "to pay scot and lot" and the rdlnary phrase "scot free."

THE HALL OF FAME.

Joy .represents Eden, Me., in the state legislature. M.Deleasse, ex-minister of foreign affairs of France, intends to visit this country- for n short trip. ' Admiral Prince Louis is said to have been much astonished when ho asked General .Fred Grant for a cigar and learniHl that the sou of General U. S. Grant did uqt smoke. J. Ogden Armour of Chicago has an nounced that he will make an annual L donation oi o,ul"j tor seuoiarsnips iu be competed, for by the state agricul tural colleges of Illinois at the live stock shows. William Wallace Speace, the well known Baltimore merchant and philanthropist, recently celebrated his ninetyfirst birthday. No man in Baltimore has done more for the beautifying and Improving of that city. The old Indian chief Gsronimo has written his autobiography, and In spite of some objection on the purt of the war department the book I to be published. The autobiography Is dedicated to Fresldeat Roosevelt. W. D. Iliads of Portland. Me., has received a moose head from New Brunswick which was the largest thit has been killed there this year. The spread was fifty-nine and a half Inches, and there were thirty-two tips. Ray Vannettisch, a newspaper man, broke the world's typewriting record at Pueblo, Cal., t.nking 2,000 words during the first thirty minutes and finishing the hour with 4.917 words over the long distance telephone from Denver, 120 miles away. Secretary Root brought with him a unique memento of his trip to South America in the form of a gold plate presented to him by the sailors of the Peruvian navy at Callao, Peru. The plate is handsomely Inscribed and contains the coat of arms of rem. Mr. Guy Laking, in charge of the famous collection of armor at Windsor castle, has come to America to study ancient armor.

In some of the English towns strik ing a match on a lamp post means a fine If a policeman sees you. The British government gets an In come of ?25,O00,0O0 from the railways, river boats and forests of India. London pays 1,000,000 a year to keep criminals in check, that being the sum paid out for police courts, prisons and prosecuting officers. A London magistrate in discharging a man and his wife charged with "con spiring" to defraud in Insurance company said that in law a man and his wife were one person, and one person could not conspire. Fewer widows are sought In matri mony oy Lugusumen man lormeriy. according to official statistics. In 1870 the percentage was 21.1 per thousand marriages. Now the widows led to the altar number only 12.5 per thousand. Forty years ago the Marquis of Bath placed three lily roots in the lake of hit estate at Louglent. ; Now the lilies oc cupy the water for three-quarters of a mile and have proved such a tenacious nuisance that the whole lake will have to be drained and dredged to get rid of I'erspira tion. Human perspiration if Injected Into dogs or rabbits acts like a deadly poi son. Perspiration secreted during hard muscular work has more toxic power than the ordinary kind, while that obtained from subjects whose secretion has been checked by cold Is very poisonous. The Carp. People marvel at the mechanism o? the human body with 248 bones and 60 arteries. But man Is simple In this respect compared with the carp. That remarkable fish moves no fewer than 4,380 bones and muscles every time It breathes. It has 4,320 veins, to say oothing of Its 99 muscles. First Industrial Congress.
