President Brown, of Norwich univer-1. aity, the military school at Northfield Vt., was formerly a naval officer, and is a warm friend of Admiral Dewey. | Bears the He recently told the story of an amus- ing experience which fell to the lot of Admiral Dewey while he was serv. ing as executive officer of the Colorado at the close of the civil war.

"A new officer on board a ship," said President Brown, "is put through "course of spouts' by the 'jackies'- the common' sailors-who are pretty skillful at that sort of hazing. It is often disagreeable and embarrassing for the new officer, but the sailors usu- ally manage it so cleverly that they keep within the regulations.

"One of the rules on board ship it that the men shall not carry matches A lantern ia kept burning for the con venience of smokers.

"Aa young Dewey came on deck early one morning, one of the Colorado's roughest characters said to a shipmate who was confined with him in the 'brig. or ship's prison, in a tone loud enough for Dewey's ear:

" "Bill, I've got some matches in my pocket, and I've a hlamed good notior to hurn this old ship under his feet." "Dewey didn't say a word. but imme. diately turned on his heel and rang the fire-hell, at the same time calling out : 'Fire in the hrig!'

"Such an alarm, so early in the morn. ing. before the men had tumbled ont of their quarters, was uuwelcome, hut in a few seconds the decks swarmed with half-dressed sailors, who manned the four powerful fire-nozzles which protected the hrig.

"Of course Dewey, as executive officer, directed the streama, and in a few nio. ments two very wet, very cold. very much disgusted and half-drowned sail- ors were bowling for mercy.

"Dewey shouted: 'Fire out! Make se- cure!' Then he turned to the dripping sailors, and said : '1 guess those matches of youra are too wet to do much dam- ugo now.' "-Youth's Companion.
