group of officers were atorles at the Army and Navy club In Washington one night' when one waa reminded of an amusing incident that occurred In connection with stay of the flagship Monongaheia at Pensacola bay when Farragut waa on board The old fighter had been very busy the week before paying official calls on the mainland and among those who had entertained him was General Can-by When therefore word was received that the general would visit the ship the next day the admiral waa determined to have everything In readiness to receive him in a style becoming Ms rank The olj boat was

of a gray beam-- Word waa passed that tbe general was coming Tbe crew were beat te quarters the marine' guard paraded and the gun squad detailed to fire the salute took their stations Everything was In readiness and the admiral and Ms staff stood at the bead of tbe gangway to receive the guest A hush of expectancy settled over the ship The boat drew nearer Just as the launch scraped alongside

launch was slowly clambering feet foremost and Juat aa the last gun waa fired he stood erect at the top of the gangway It was the coek with a bag of fruit in each hand! The honors Intended for a general bad been rendered to old Pomp! As tbe situation dawned on tbe men even discipline could not check a general shout of laughter: The old admiral himself laughed until he could laugh no longer It seemed that In some way the dinghy had gone off and left tbe old negro and that be managed to convince the coxswain that Farragut waa Jest bound to have dat fruit the general came Pomp wanted to land at the port gangway but the coxswain Insisted that the launch never went to the port side and that tbe old man would have to land on the starboard aide aft Had tbe awning been' a little higher tbe mistake In Identification would not have
