P. Powell iu the Outing Magazine for August. The Bellerophon. (New York Sun.) The launching of tho new Bellerophon brings back to the British battle line a famous fighting Hunte. One recalls the stirring story of how the ohl Bellerophon i.l boldly bought out the ltevolUtionfaire 110, with never a thought of superior weight of metal, and fought out the lwtg odds until her top hamper was car- ried away and she could fight no longer in the spring evening, yet the Frenchman had no stomach to close hi and capture the cripple. So she was trim and all a- taunto to play her part three days later in the glorious first of June and help to win Lord lfowe's victory. When one thinks of Nelson and the Nile, memory conjures up another view of the Bellerophon; booming away port and starboard with crash of metal and riven wood and cheers of bullies. At 'Trafalgar the Bellerophon led brio lee column as Collingwood's flagship. The fleeing Corsican surrendered to this same Bellerophon. The new Bellerophon is to be a revised and better Dreadnought, and she richly deserves every implement of war to fit her to live up to the brave traditions that 'cluster rich and warm about the fighting fame of the old "Bully Ruf- fian." The Actress Was Superstitious. There is a charming young actress who numbers among her friends a well known clubman of Washington. During her re- cent engagement in the National Capital, says the Lippincott's Magazine, the player was lamenting to her admirer the ' fact that she was getting thinner and thinner. "01, not at all!" came from the gallant clubman, who knew the lady's detesta- tion of too lean a figure. "On the con, trary, I assure you, you're as plump as a partridge." The young woman surveyed him for a moment through narrowed eyes. "Are you paying me a compliment, or are you making game of me?" she asked. Beat Him One Way.
