It Costs a Mint, of 7 loney -House keeping Is I>one Under a Kigid System -A Ship's "Sl.c sses. FURNITURE AND SUPPLIES FOR Uncle Sara's new war Vessels cost a mint of money, says Reno Bache. To fit out one of these ships for a cruise is a bigger job than equipping a first-class hotel. Here is a floating fortress, as loug as two city blocks, with all modern con veniences and complete restaurant fa cilities, lighted throughout by elec tricity—a gigantic ff ;hting machine and military barrack* combined. Her steel walls, bristling with guns, shel ter a small army of men. The New York, for example, his a crew num bering 455, besides forty marines and forty-five officers. To feed them all for a twelvemonth, at the Government's rate of allowance, costs $60,000. On going iuto commission such a ship must be furnished throughout from the kitchen, which is as complete hs that of a great city hostelry, to the captain's cabin. She carries large stocks of stationery, hardware and apothecaries' goods, and is provided jvitli tools for all sorts of trades. Everything conceivable that may be needed for purpose* of war and peace is supplied, because on the high seas no shops or factories are accessible. Usually the vessel is provisioned for only three months, because there is no room to stow more. Every mau in the navy, from the last boy shipped ap to the admiral, hftH an allowance of thirty cent** a day for rations, which he may draw either in food or in money. The paymaster of the ship hat* cha;ge of all the pro visions, which aru dealt out by his "yeoman," who is in turn assisted by the .Tack o' Dust. The person last named attends to opening the barrels and packages. Coffee and sugar are served out once iu ten days, flour every four days and meats daily. While in port flesh provisions are furnished, each man receiving one pound of fresh h'.'ead, one and one quarter pounds of fresh meat and one pound of fresh vegetables per diem. These take the pi ace of the ordinary ration, only tea ind coffee being pro vided in addition. The allowance is at all times so liberal that the enlisted men cannot possibly consume the whole of it; so they take part of it in ch which they utilize iu wayß pres i ltly to be described. The methods of housekeeping 011 ' loard of a ship of war are very inter isting. All of f.he officers and men ire divided up iato little clubs, each of which has its cook and manages its own affairs. These clubs are called 4 'meases." Thece is the captain's mess, the wardroom mess, the junior officers' mess, the warrant officers' mens, the petty officers' mess and the men's mes ses. Every officers' mess has a caterer, who is elected periodically from its own membership. The captain, because there is only one of him, must enter for himself. He messes by himself in his cabin and cntß in lonely state, save when he chooses to invite officers to dine with him. If the teasel is a flagship ho may mess witli the admiral or not, just as he chooses. The admiral has his own cabin, of course. The captain has his own steward, bis private cook and two cabin boys. Tho admiral lias a like staff of servants, with perhaps an extra boy. It must be understood that the "boys" on a war vessel are en listed men at least twenty-one years old. The men are divided up into messes of twelve initially. Each such club elects its own caterer and chooses one of its members for cook, with the ap proval of the executive officer. The most important requirement for this culinary post is ability to make bread. Good breadmakers arc in great de maud for stich positions on board ship. The mess cook receives from the mess wages equal to the money equivalent of from one to two rations monthly— that is to say from $11.30 to SIB.OO a month. This salary is so much in ad dition to his pay from the Govern ment and renders the office very de sirable. The iucumbenfc draws the rations from the paymaster ami pre pares them for the table. But, because the allowance is greater than is uceded, he takes only eight rations in food and the remaining four in money. The cash thus obtained goes to form what is called the mess fund, to which each man. usually adds about $2 monthly. The mess fund pays the cook and pro vides all sorts of luxuries, such as sweats, condeused milk aud many othrc good things that can be pur chased when in port. The messes are organizations of military character. All of them are under the direction of the executive officer of the ship. That personage, always the senior line officer on board, presides at the ward room mess; the other members of that eating club occupy places at the table in the order of their rank. Line officers sit on the starboard side and staff officers on the port side. But the caterer pro torn, sits at the foot of the table. Though in ordinary mutters informal, strict etiquette governs all essentials in the mess. The executive officer lias authority to put a stop to auy dis pute or offensive conversation. A description of the management of t'le wardroom mess will serve, with fiw modifications, for the officers' messes. The caterer buys the pro >isions. He gets them on shore when ♦he ship is in port. Except when com pelled to do eo, he does not purchase from the vessel's stores, but draws the rations from the mess in cash. How ever, he docs usually obtain from the paymaster what he needs in the way of cooking butter, cooking sugar, rice, beans, pork and canned meats, paying for them in money, because Lh -u ar ticles, as dispensed l>y Uncle S.ti are just as good of their kind as 2in be got and are furnished at id out cost. Members of the mess pay their bills monthly to the caterer. The cost of board to each officer in the ward room is naually about S3O a month. It is somewhat less on the Asiatic sta tion, the markets in that part of the world being cheaper. There is a bal ance left over in the caterer's hands, which goes to make up the mens fund. This fuud in the wardroom will some times amount to as much as SIOOO. It provides for the replacement of crock ery, for entertaining by the mess while in port and for all sorts of unusual ex penses. Every man in tho navy, from the admiral down to tho jack o' dust, must supply his own bed clothes and mess furniture, such as crockery, etc. To each officer a mattress and pillow tire allowed, and to each sailor a ham mock. Uutil recently tho Government has furnished nothing in tho way of table ware, except for the captain, who is provided with enough things of the kind to set up a good-sized house hold, including a dozen of everything. Within tho laßt two months, however, all silver-plated ware required for the wardroom has been allowed by the Bureau of Equipment. To start a wardroom mess requires an investment of SSO to $75 for each officer. At the end of a cruise all of the china, linen, etc., is sold for what it will bring— usually about teu per cent, of the original cost. The proceeds are di vided among the officers who owned tho property. The kitchcu of a ship of war is under the direction of the ship's cook, whose functions arc like those of a chef in a great hotel. He is au important man in his way, ami his responsibilities are great. The culinary department is on a considerable scale. In addition to the ordinary ship's kitchen or galley, the New York has three ranges—one for the admiral, mother for the cap tain, and a third for the wardroom mess. In the galley all the cooking is done for the other officers and for the men. The various mess cooks serve merely as assistants. They prepare the meats, soups, breads, etc , for the tire, and the ship's cook does the rest. All waste grease, empty barrels and boxes from the paymater's storeroom, and such refuse, are sold by the ex ecutive officer, the proceeds going to make up what is called the "slush fund." This money provides rending matter for the crew, extra music for the band, etc. The slush or grease used formerly to be a perquisite of the ship's cook, and the sale of it added largely to his pay; but improved methods of cookery allow compara tively little waste iuthis shape. Just as smoke is said to be a symptom of imperfect combustion, so slush is a symptom of imperfect cooking. The ((nail Looked Unutterable Disgust. "Talk about your expressions on the faces of animals," said the artist, reaching for the tobacco jar. "I saw a quail once that exhibited disgust ou its couuteuauce as unmistakably as a man could. 1 was out in the woods sketching, when I hear 1 a quail give its whistle of challongo. I returned the note and soon got an answer. Then I gave the bird's flocking signal. I kept up my whistling, giving first one signal and then the other, and getting replies every now and then which came nearer and nearer. "1 kept on with my sketching and, in fact, didn't pay much attention to the bird. I was sitting against a rail fence. Sudden.y the quail, which had been following up my signals, flew on the fence just a little way from me. I looked at it and the expression on its face was too funny for anything. It had been expecting a good, rattling tight, and instead of finding an enemy, had come upon me. I was certain from its look of disgust that it uttered mentally a string of quail profanity. If it met another quail witliinn hour I niiss my guess if there wasn't a fierce battle."—New York Tribune. ArJihishop and Crank. The New York Times relates the fol lowing anecdote of the late Archbishop Hughes: Dr. Hughes was onco visited by a crank in his Mulberry street res idence. It was at night, and the crunk entered the bedroom, and, waking Dr. Hughes from a sound sleep, drew a dagger and threatened to kill him. With woudorftil presence ol mind the prelato cried out "Arc you au Irish man?" "I am," replied tlis crank. "Then go out," said Dr. Hughes, "and get a blackthorn stick andkili me with that. No Irishman ever yel killed a man with a dagger; only Jta/ians use that weapon." "The crank put up his knife aud went out for the black thorn," said Dr. Brauu, "and the pre late's life was saved." Kownoe, a Newly Found Grain. A traveler in the Himalayan moun tain region has discovered that the natives of that country cultivate a grain hitherto unknown in civilized agricultural operations, which has something the look of wheat but has very much longer ears, and which has a peculiar inward curve. The shiny, brown grain, unlike wheat, is, on the other hand, much smaller than wheat grains should be for so large an ear. But the interest is that a cereal of thii character should yield such heavy crops iu so high au altitude, whore tlio seasons aro necessarily short and the temperature low. The natives call the grain kownee. —Chicago Herald. The Mule-Shearer of Yucatan. Yucatan is the home of an uncanny species of spider, the "mule-shearer."

CURIOUS CEREMONY STILL IN ; VOGUE AMONG THE "SAINTS." How the First Wife Presents All New Coining Brides to Iler Lord and Master. THE Mormon marriage cere mony is a mystery to the Gentile world. Until the completion of the Temple it was celebrated in the Endowment House—a frame building which stood oear the round house Tabernacle. Under the Mormon code marriages lot celebrated in the Temple were not 6inding, but many years ago an tmended vision was received by the Prophet to the effect that such de parture could be permitted until the sompletion of the Temple, on the ground that a person would not bo damned for doing the best he could. Then the saints rested easy and paid fcheir tithing—the Temple costing them about three times its actual value. There is as much marrying among the saints as there was before the pas sage by Congress of proscriptive laws. The ceremonial is secret, the most terrible oath being administered. The candidates for bliss swear eternal en mity to the Gentile world because.a Gentile mob of Missourians killed their prophet and drove them hence ; they swear never to reveal the secrets of the Endowment House or Temple, forfeiting their lives and agreeing that their throats may be cut from ear to ear as the penalty of such betrayal, and they further swear enmity to the United States Government and its constituted authorities. They claim that the Government has ever perse cuted them. The bridal couple, on entering the ante-chamber, change their garments for the mystic endowment robe—a closc-litting undergarment made of a continuous piece of cloth, something on the style of that worn by dress re formers. Over this the attendant places tho "Temple robe," a long, flowing garment made of white linen or bleached muslin. Tho robe is gathered to a band which rests across the right shoulder, passes across tho breast to the left side, where it is fastened by a linen belt. The man wears a headdress something like that worn by a restaurant cook. The cap is of linen and is drawn tightly around the head by a silken string, relieved by a bow knot in front. The endow ment robe is never discarded, nud the faithful Mormon is bnried in it. The bridal couple are given Biblical names which uro entered in the church | register, and this is all the evidence | the Gentile courts would have, even if j they took possession of the records, i No one could be convicted on the sim ple written entry that 4 'Ruth and ! Laban" had been "sealed." They are 1 known only to the church people by ' these names, which nro never spoken, even among themselves. After being bathed they are anointed from head to foot, typical of washing away the sins of the world. Arrayed in their mystic robes they are con ducted into a typical Garden of Eden. Under a scrub upple tree reclines the Batan-serpent. The character is im personated by one of the dresses it according to his interprets- j tion of original sin, which is some thing like the stage Mephisto. As Eve j walks into the garden the attention of Adam seems to be conveniently di rected elsewhere, and the woman lis tens to the apple story. The bride groom, who represents Adam, ap proaches, hears the story from "God's best work of creation," and iiuishcs up the winter apple. Then there is stage thunder ami lightning, a curtain is lulled back showing a wood scene typical of the world at the creation; an elder ap pears at the garden gate with a drawn sword and with a few words of remon strance drives the guilty couple out of Paradise into the world of sin. Thoro is more thunder and lightniug, an odor of sulphur, with a lime light throwu upon the elder at the gate with the sword. The next scene represents the "liappy couple" kneeling nt a table in the cen ter of a room furnished with modern conveniences. Some of the so-called apostles are present. The first wife of the polygamist is the bridesmaid and also gives away the bride by plac ing her right hand in that of her own husband, saying: "Husband, to thee I give sister Ruth for wife." Then she rises and stands behind the bride while the marriage ceremony is read, which is long or short according to the posi tion in life of the couple. Usually a man saves time and mar ries several wives on the same "happy day." The original wife gives away each of the brides, and is an impor tant functionary on this blissful oc casion. If a fanatic in tho Mormon belief, she is proud of the occasion, the belief being that the more wives a mail has the better are his chances for heaven, and the wife's chances-are thereby increased. As the creed is that an unmarried woman cannot enter Paradise they are eager to marry, tak ing their chances for happiness in the next world. Many of their wives who are afraid of being lost do tho court iug for their husbands. In Salt Lake City a polygamist's several wives usually live with their mothers, consequently their marriage is not even suspected by the United States authorities. Polygamy will not soon "die out," as is generally supposed. At each semi annual conference, in April and Octo ber, missionaries are sent to Europe and to the most benighted regions of the United States to make converts, and the great majority of these are large families, consisting mainly of voting women. In the Gentile world a husband supports his wife too. Here it is the reverse. The wives take In sewing, "clerk" in a store or teach a "deestrict school," but I believe thfy draw the line at type writing. In the country one wifo attends to the dairy ing, another works in the field while the husband is perhaps lying down in the shade looking on, and another wifo does the cooking and attends to the babies of the composite family. At first the husband builds a log hut, and with each additional wife he builds a section to his hut. The passing traveler will know the number of wives a Mormon has by counting the com partments of his house.—New York Advertiser. SELECT SIFriNUS.
