NAVAL ENGINEER RESERVE
Senator, Tillman Has a Bill Which
Aims at This.
Priii-.-M tii K-tnbllhti Special Techno-
loKlcnl Courwn at Ajrxicuturiil
mid -M-cliiiulcul Colleges.
Senator Tillman of South Carollua rests
his record as a reformer In hl State on
the establishment of two splendid colleges,
one for women at Rock Iliil, and the oilier
at Fort Hill, the latter being appropriately
enojsh the home of hla,one-tlinu predeces
sor In the Senate, John C. Calhoun.
Mr. Tiilman, who has been assigned to
the Naval Committee, has now in hand
a hill, the object of which is In general
terms lo supplement the work done at the
Naval Ai.iut.iiy by proper Instruction at
Uioagricuiiar.il and mechanical colleges of
the United Stales. Oneof the bestof tliese
Is the Clemsoii College of South Carolina.
This bill, it Is understood, will recelfe
the sujiporl of many of the Senators, and
especially Senator Squire of Oregon,
Within the next few weeks a number of
wooden war vessels on the Atlantic coast
will be disposed of In some way, and it
has been suggested thaujlielr machluery
be utilized at some of the leading scientific
colleges. Of the vessels which must go
are the rrankllu and the Wabash, which
might be sent for illustrative purposes to
a Virginia and Massachusetts college.
The scope of the bill Is somewhat larger
than this. In addition to encouraging the
students, increasing the elficiency of the
Naval Academy by bringing the institu
tion into friendly livalry witli other scien
tific colleges, and prodding a naval en
gineering reserve without cost tothegovcrn-
rneiit, there :s another educational reature
in the bill By increasing the number of
naval engineers it will be possible to pro
vide professors of mechanical rngiii'-eting
as contemplated bj the act of l-ebruury 29,
lfi'G.i When it is remembered ttiat the
directors of the scientific colleges of
Harvard anil Cornell Universities are ex
naval cngii.eers, and that the professors of
inechnuical t-uginecrlng at the Unlvcisity
of Pennsylvania anil the University of
Michigan were also ex-members of tho same
corps, one can get nn Idea of the class of
men who would be sent.
This bill makes It compulsory for theNavy
DepartuiPHttodct all such auoffieer to every
scientific institution which shall establish a
cotne of engineering satisfactory to the
Secretary of the Nay. The educational
feature of this measure therefore has Jour
great objects in view; Primarily, proildlngu
naai engineering reseervc for time of war
withoiitcot tothegovermnent. Secondly,
assisting the scleral scientific institutions
by detailing well-qualified instructors of
marine and mechanical engineering without
costito the respective collegts. Thirdly,
cncoijraglng the study of the mechanic arts
and hciences by rewarding the meritorious
student, anil offering an incentive to study
to others. Fourthly, placing the Naal
AcadcmyJn friendly ri airy with technolog
ical institutions of equal standing.
TilEOSOl'HY AS A. SCIENCE.
3Ir.i It.. L. Lfrcir. Lecture Before
tlu'T-oeul Society.
Tin) usual public meeting of the Theo
sopljical Society was held in the upper
hall or the Mctzcrott Building last even
ing, the speaker lieing Mr. U. L. Lerch of
this city. Ills subject was 'Scientific
Thcosophy," which he chose in order to
show tliat while theosophy presented some
strange and even weird ideas, it was,
nevertheless, truly scientific
It harmonized, the lecturer declared, all
three dpp-irtraents of human knowledge, on
the liasis of the revelations contained In
the ancient "Wisdom Religion," only a
portion of which had been made public as
yet. And, though conflicting hero and
there with scientific as well as religious
dogma, It furnished the most complete
system now extant, and une toward which
the thinking world -was working so rap
idly that probably the next fifty years
would see its main ideas currently ac
cepted. THE .-ECULAIt LEAGUE.
Cthic-ul Sioh'ty Ilolcln mi InterCKtlnn
Jlretlnj; und Changer. Its Nnmo.
The second meeting of the Secular League
was hclil at Sheldon's Hall jesterday af
ternoon. In accordance with the program laid
down by the cvecutive board, a paper was
read ami the subject considered and dis
cussed in five-minute speeches.
The paper was by Dr. W. A. Croffut.
entitled "Enlightened Self-interest," or
Why Ulght Is Right aud Wrong Is Wrong."
The discussion was participated in by
Messrs. Pcachln, Uurbugc, Birney, Carter.
Godwin and others.
The executive board then reported In
favor of adopting "The Secular League"
as the permanent name for the organiza
tion Instead of the Ethical Society, under
which latter the organization was ef
fected a week ago.
The league is not an oath-bound society.
It will stand for absolute divorce between
Church and State, for the upbuilding of
good government and for practical week
morals.
Author Fischer's Scurfpin.
Henry W. rischcr is one of the few emi
nent writers ou foreign events for Amer
ican magazines who have had a genuine
experience abroad. He wears in his scarf
a handsome pin, unique and odd, because
it Is unclassified. The Emperor of Germany
presented it to him last year. Mr. Fischer
bad translated Von Moltkc's works for a
New l'ork publishing house and Bent a
copy to his Imperial majesty. A fewmonths
later, when in London, Mr. riscber was
asked to call on the German ambassador,,
who gave him the scarfpin from the em
peror, with the gracious message that
the kaiser could not accept a girt and rer
main in the debt of an American citizen.
A prominent New x'ork jeweler can not.
Identify tbc gem, which Is extremely fi
nable. The plu contains a large, oval stone, with

coloring of onyx. A golden serpent nhds

D It ESS ALLOWANCE.
Even Wltli Short I'utmj Strings a
Woman May DreM Well.
It Isn't in the power of every woman
-to create a handsome and comprehensive
wardrobe out, of Jwo costumes and a few
Inexpensive accessories, but she can do
a great ileal toward It ir she studies ber
own points and is willing to do a little
hard work and harder thlnklug to ac-
"Conipllsh this end.
- One of her first necessities Is the abil
ity to use her needle with taste and
"neatness, and to possess the faculty of
putting materials together without in
congruousness. The woman of limited
'means must ivear a great deal or black
.as a foundation fabilc, s.ijs the New
York Ledger. If ber regulation cos
tume Is blue, her'dear 500 friends or roes,
as the case may be, always know her by
that dress.
"If there isn't Mrs. A. In that eer
Lastiug blue satin dress," said one woman
to another., "She has worn that dress
for three Seasons, and on ecry great
occasion It bobs up serenely with new trim
mings on It." .
Of course one might make the same
criticism on a black dress, but it Is not so
conspicuous. JV woman of alternatUes
has a dress that answers various purposes,
and as she has the reputation of bujlng a
new black satin-lress etcry season, she
gets the credit for having half a dozen
"costumes when, In reality, she has but
two.
Her latest achievement Is a catln skirt In
which are adjustable side panels. The
-waist, which Is round, and fits her per
fectlly. Is made with removable sieves.
These button in under rurfle-shaped epaulets
'that conceal the point of union.
., TJjp waist Is cut, with low corsagcyand
Hbere- are doubleT'shouIder straps or bands
fin cither side.
When stie desires to be exceptionally
dresy, she removes her sleeves, dons a
guhnpehaped waist of chiffon, with very
full elbow -sleeves"! settles the shoulder
strdps trimly over the diaphanous fabric,
laces in panels of puffed chiffon, and
encircles her not tod slender waist with a
handsome belt with sash ends, and is
ready for the most ceremonious occasion.
She Is invited to a somewhat Informal
dinner, and .an almost entirely different
costume makes Its appearance. Sleeves of
satin, brocaded with bright figures, are
ct-In the skirt, and a collarette with a
thick lining Is fastened over the shoulders.
This makes costame Nd. 2.
Does she desire to appear decollete, the
waist with double straps is worn, with
merely a narrow-puffing of tulle around
lhcrjeck, and the satin puffs and panels
matching the dressa are fitted in.
For this one dress there are half a dozen
changes ln.co.Ior and material.
-WHAT A DOG CAN KNDUHE.
One Went Twenty -two Days With
out Food.
j'ublio Opinion.
Some t cry long survivals arc on record,
but none, perhaps, more interesting or re
markable than a well-authenticated case
which comes -from Farnce. Mr. Gely, a
farm superintendent, at Uampierre, In the
Department of the Upper Snone, has a dog
.named llfgolct, -which, although past ten
years old and almost toothless, has never
abated the activity of his warfare against
all the animals of the field, and especially
against foxes. A short time ago, as Mr.
Gely, with his dog, was passing the mouth
of a fox-burro w, Itlgolet made a sudden and
furious de-sccnt on the burrow, showing
plainly that it was Inhabited. It had so
spieious tfnork-nlffg that thedog forced him
self Into it quite out of sight. Presently the
master heard the tumult ofa combat within.
Tlie dog was ba-klng fiercely. Then there
came a sound of a caving in, and the noise
ceased. Either Rlgolet had been silenced
by the fox, or he bad been engulfed by the
collapse of the gallery In which the fight
was taking place. ' Mr. Gely setaboutdigging
htm out, but-found the groundso stony that
he was obliged to glveltup, andthealddog
was left to his fate.
Gely went home, and after mourning the
dog a few days, thought of him no more.
Twenty-one days went by. It happened
that the miller of tbc neighborhood, pass
ing the fox-buttow with a friend, tald:
"There's the place where poor old Jligolet
was buried alive' Just then lie heard a
feeble whining which seemed to come
from underground. He called and lis
tened, and the whining -was repeated
louder than before. There was certahily
a dog within the fox-burrow. The miller
ran vto apprise Ge-ly, -who this time brought
picks and shovels, and a sufficient number
of liaods to open the' burrow. After five
hours of active digging the old dog was
unearthed at a considerable depth. As
soon as lie was brought to the open air
Iligolet fell to tlie ground, apparently
dead. But his master succeeded In reviv
ing him ,-wlth doses of beef tea and milk,
and the old dog was seemingly as good
as cvcrJ'It'bccamea question whether he
had fasted in the burrow for the twenty
two days or whether he had subsisted on
the fox, which-he certainly found, It was
assumed by his master thai tip was too
nearly toothless to have been able to de
vour a fox; and those who dug him out
declared t!-at there was no sign that he
J.ad had anj thing to eat.

FREAKS OF A. MISOGYK1ST.
Wanted to Bo Burled Between Two
Vacant Graves. '
Probably.tbe most confirmed misogynist,
who ever lived was a wealthy old bachelor
who recently died In Vienna, saysthe
Pittsburg Dispatch. After his death a
bundle of documents was discovered among
his belongings, labeled: "Attempts by my
family to put me under the yoke of matri
mony." In this packet were sixty-two
letters, the dates ranging from 184B to
1893, a sufficient proof of the tenacity
of his relations. So afraid was this strangs
man of even sitting near n woman that
whenever he went to the theater he booked
three seats, In order Uiat he might have
one on either side of him empty.
When traveling in a railway carriage he
was always careful to smoke a large, foul
smelling pipe, to keep away Intruders of
the female sex. In his will he said: "I
beg that my executors will see that I am
buried where there is no woman inlerredr
either le the right or left or me. Should
this not be practicable In the ordinary
course of things, I direct that they pur
chase three graves and bury me In the
middle one of the three, leaving the two
others unoccupied."
