How tittle Salt Became Commander Marlz's BUiMiiger. That charming Cleveland favorite, Grace Fllklns, who will bo so pleasantly remembered in "Shore Acres," is now supporting Charles Coghlan in "Tho Royal Box." She is tho wife of Lieutenant Commander Adolph Mnrlx, the judgu advocate of the uuvul court of inquiry which Investigated tho destruction of the battleship Maine. Lieutenant Commander Marlx was formerly the executive officer of the Maine, and was continued as such until within three weeks of tho tiino tho battleship watt sent to Havana, when he was detached for shore duty.

When Commander Marix was first as- eigiicd to tliu Maine, bo and Miss Filkins had just become engaged to bo married, and the nuvnl officer tyas much in love with tho ludy. Commander Marix desired a ship's messenger and orderod a second lieutennut 0110 duy to range up all the lads in the ship, that he might select a messenger from thorn. A dozen youngsters Eoon utood in Commander Marlx's cabin, all eager to bo examined, for to be meg- sensor for tho ciecutive officer was a cov- etod honor. In tho row of Inds Commander Marls noticed ono little follow staring with wide open eyes at a picture of Miss Filkins on his desk. This somewhat surprised him, ami i(j pleased him too.

When this youngster's turn came to be interrogated, ho stepped forward, but did not remove his eyes from the photograph. He answered intelligently, but somehow his gaze could Dot be diverted from the lady's picture. Finally the commander asked, "Do you know this lady, young manf" "Yes," piped the little salt; "that's Miss r-'kina." "Ki you know Miss Filkins?" mother washed for her for nine years, sir." It is needless to say that the little apprentice was given the post of messenger to tho lieutenant commander. This boy's name was Kogel, and about 18 months ago ho was lost overboard in a storm oft Cape Eatteras. A great wave boarded the ship and sent the lad into tbefcea.

Four or five men sprang overboard in the midst of the storm to rescue the lad, and all were saved but poor little Kogel, who was sucked down by the heavy sen and never seen again. It Is a noteworthy fact that two sailors those who went overboard in the storm after this boy were lost from the ship for over two hours and finally were saved, after having been almost washed aboard of ber by a great Plain Dealer. Juvenile Wheels. Manufacturers are paying particular attention to the production of wheels for juveniles this season, for it is expected that there will be more younger cyclists than ever this year. At the headquarters of a prominent firm it was that fully 15 per cent of the year's production would be for juveniles.

This is considered uu important part of the trade. In speaking about this sir -'c-ct. Dave Shafer, Michael's said recently that if he ever went into the bioyolo business he would confine himself to producing wheels for young folks only. He thinks there would be money in York World.
