"It was rumored.' Admiral," said I,
"when we started on this cruise, that

A qulzzlc.il, sotnewnnt cjnlcal

"In tho summer of 1905, when I
nas a member of tho Oonoral Hoard
in Washington," he replied, "I ono
day contracted n severe toothache,
which spread over my faco and mado
mo both unpresentable mid unhappy.
On account of this I missed ono ses
sion of tho board, which, with one
other exception, v. as tho onl) duty I
ecr missed In my life
"Mr. Wurzbiugh," tho Admiral
calledt his flag lieutenant. "What

'Ihe Admlial certainly did not

A healthy and handsome tan was on

and again a sparkling Intelligence.
Ills form was upright, spare, and his
