As be is known in and out of tbe navy, belongs, to -that clast of oitisetu wte.

Ills men stood SOildiy behind him* ready to go whe re v e r b e would lead. As tbe Marlet- IT WAS thejk last ta had been In pox* Caribbean pen waters for a long time, it looked as though tiie . Christmas dinner would consist only of cauned Stuff and fresh vegetables And the-peculiar cigarettes of the tropics. Fortunately the steam­ er Philadelphia arrived at Lu Guayra, one of the ports blockaded, and, as it could not unload, Captain Diehl, the commander of the Marietta, succeeded in inducing the commercial vessel to part with two turkeys aud some cran­ berries which, among other firings, had been brought from New York carefully stowed away in tbe icebox. The Philadelphia had no Egyptian ciga­ rettes, and U»e‘ question- arose where limy cquld be go t Cropan. pondered deeply over the weighty probtem and then asked permission .for a boat, Without indicating what he proposed to do be gave tbe orders to proceed to tbe British cruiser Tribune, which was one of tbe Ships enforcing the block­ ade. Cronan was received by tbe ward­ room mess of the Tribune, with open arms. - As a special mark of-apprecia* lion of his visit a. box of a hundred Egyptian cigarettes Was brought forth by the executive officer, Cronan was invited to take one. His eyes lingered longingly on, tbe-box ns he extracted n lonely weed. j He remained about a quarter of bn hour, and then, teach­ ing over to the box, closed it and, to the astonishment o f ' the Britishers, put it under his arm- They were too well bred to remonstrate, but their eyes spoke volumes. It was their last box! Cronan went over the side and was pulled away to his own ship, leav­ ing behind dfsgqbt and desolation. As sport as he reached the Marietta, be M a t m *■ torSeya.and this be c a r e f u l l y p ^ i r '‘,:'37F'' 4: packed np and ^ sent to the ward­ room o f t h e Tribunewith the compliments of the American of­ ficers.’ and he accompanied, it with fifty clga- “tettes. The Christmas dinners on the M a rie tta and Tribune ns well were great ■re­ cesses. The on­ ly bar to e na-* plcte enjoyment " why is ciionan hnee on the part of TPIS boxf every one on the* American gunboat not in Cronap'S confidence was the ab­ sence of cigarettes. When the coffee W,a3 tlerved Cronan anhouuced that Santa Clans bad commissioned him to convey a aploutlid gift to the mess. Tie then produced the half filled box. . “Why la Cronan like this box?” en­ thusiastically asked one officer who belonged to the conundrum class of humanity. ‘•lie’s not full.” one wit replied, "He '0 it delight to the eye,” said an­ other. “lie's white, straight, and whatever yellow there is in him Is the best yel­ low there In,” hazarded a third. “Perhaps,” admitted the questioner “But my ausv.or In this: Vou find Cro­ nan always where the smoke is thick- eat.”—Chicago Tribune, A Prayer to the Christ Child.
