THESGREAT‘EST TRIUMPH IN NAVAL
CONSTRUCTION.

the Illinois, Which In the Opinion of

Experts Will Be the Most Powerful
i Fighting-Machine Ever Constructed by

aNation.

The navy department, in designing
the plans for the Illinois, showed-as
great an advance over former de-
signs as previous plans had shown
over the types of fighting ships which
were supposed to be satisfactory 'in
1890. The Illinois belongs to the class
of'designs known as those of 1896,
while the Kentucky and Kearsarge
belong to the class of 1895. As if the
designers had foreseen the conclusion
of naval experts after the close of our
war With Spain upon the eflicacy of
guns, in the Illinois the 8-inch gun is
eliminated and the weight and power
of the secondary battery tremendously
increased. To add to the value of the
seagoing qualities of the battleship. a
spar deck has been added to the first
three-quarters of the ship’s length, and
the freeboard increased from thirteen
feet in the Kentucky to twenty feet
in the Illinois.

The four terrible 13-inch, guns will
fire an 1,100-pound shell. with a muz-
zle energy of 33,627 foot tons, equal
to the perforation of thirty-four and a
half inches of wrought iron. The two
13-inch guns forward are twenty-six
and a half feet above the water line.
which enables them to be used in bat-
tle even when a heav sea is on and
the battle ship is headed at it. The
after turret stands above the main
deck and is eight feet lower than the
forward turret. The turrets are of
the elliptical type. They are lighter
than on the other battle ships and
provide more room for the. handling
of the guns and their loading.

The fourteen 6-inch guns of the sec-
ondary battery will fire a 100-pound
shell. Each of these guns is to have
a muzzle energy of 3,204 tons. with a
power of penetrating 15.6 inches of
iron. The guns are widely separated.
and greater protection is afforded the
gunners than on any other of the bat-
tle ships. Eight of the guns will be
in the central battery on the main
deck, protected by a wall of five and
one-half inches of steel. Two 6-inch
guns on the same deck. but forward.
will be protected the same way. Four
6-inch guns on the spar deck will have
a protection of six inches of steel. and

' can be fired dead ahead and dead

astern, as well as on the broadside.
The two smokestacks have been
placed abreast of each other.

In calling attention to the superb
quality of the Illinois. Alabama and
Wisconsin type of battle ships. the
Scientific American makes a compari-
son with the Majestic of the British
navy, which officials of the navy sta-
tioned here regard as eminently fair.
The Majestic has a displacement load-
ed of about 15,000 tons to 11,525 tons
for the Illinois.

Nevertheless, against this seeming
disparity the Illinois carries four 13-
inch guns. as against four 12-inch for
the Majestic; she has fourteen 6-inch
rapid-fire, as against twelve; she is
protected with sixteen inches of side
armor, as against fifteen inches; she
has seventeen-inch turret armor. as
against six inches. and her speed is
only one and one-half
Further, being a smaller ship she pre-
sents less target to the enemy. and
drawing four feet less water she can
navigate harbors and rivers and chan-
nels into which the Majestic dare not
enter.

The technical description of the Illi-
nois is: A double-turret battle ship.
length 368 feet, and over all 373 feet
and 9 inches. Extreme breadth. 27
feet 2% inches. Mean draught, with
800 tons of coal on. two-thirds of
stores and two-thirds of ammunition.
is 23 feet and 0 inches. There is
twenty feet of freeboard at the bow
and thirteen feet three inches at the
stern. ,

The armor belt is Harveyized. The
central portion of the ship is com-
pletely inclosed by armor, extending
from four feet below the load water
line to the level of the upper deck. or
a height of twenty-three feet. The
principle on which the ship was de-
signed is to obtain greater rigidity
and strength over other battle ships
with use of less material. ,

She carries a pair of propelling en-
gines with an estimated collective
horse power of 10,000 indicated and a
corresponding legend speed of sixteen
knots. The area‘ of the mid-ship sec-
tion is 1,613 square feet and of the
load water plate 19,900 feet. The pro-
pelling machinery weighs 1.128 tons,
and the armor and bolts in her 2.719
tons. ~

What will the Illinois be able to do
when in action? -

Naval authorities say that she can
stand fourteen miles out from any
coast city 'in the world and hurl de-
structive shells into the center of it.
In a flair, open sea fight. with her
st' ering apparatus uninjured and
American gunners on board her, she
is considered to be more than a match
for any battle ship afloat to-day. If
pit-ted against an armored cruiser of
the type of the New York, one of her
broadsides, it is said, would entirely
destroy all of the upper works of that
magnificent vessel and render her gun
shelters untenable by any human be-
ing. Matched against vessels of the
type of the Oquendo or the Vizcaya
at a range of 2,000 yards, she would
hurl against either one of them 1,150
pounds more of chilled steel projec-
tiles than their combined broadsides
could discharge against her. If fight-
ing alone all the vessels of Admiral
Cervera’s fleet, as it was when afloat
at Santiago, the Illinois would dis-
charge ln a double broadside more
steel projectiles, in weight, than fired
by‘the combined Spanish fleet. If in
contest ’with such vessels as .D'evvey

' RHEUMATISM CURED IN A DAY

i Ioldiers. Rogers, his bod! servant, i!
e teetotaler, which is an exceedingly
rare thing to find in the ranks of Tom-
my Atkins. ‘Kitchener’s cure for
drunkenness’ is a by-WOrd among his
men. Once taken it is never forgot
; ten. The culprit is togged out in‘ full
marching equipment, which is a mat-
ter of sixty pounds, and is then com-
pelled to carry in each hand a bag of
shot weighing fifty pounds. A son
geant and a guard are put over the
victim to see that he does not stop
walking or drop the shot. A man is
sometimes kept at this ‘shot drill’ for
six hours.

“Another severity which called
(low-n unpleasant comments on Kitch-
ener was his order "Kill the wounded
Dervishes.’ England heard of this
with horror, but the British soldiers
were loud in their praises. Kitchener
had seen how these Dervishes, after
being wounded, would lie quiet on the
battlefield concealing in their clothes
a pistol or scimeter shaped knife.
When the ambulance corps and sur-
geons came out on the field to give aid
to the wounded enemy, these fellows
would wriggle out through heaps of.
slain and give a last thrust or put a
bullet through a nurse or doctor. At
other times they would hamstring a
horse, and in this way disabled nearly
the whole ‘black watch.‘

“There were eight thousand men in
that first expedition,” continued Mr.
Morrell, “and they moved along like
clockwork. Our orders from London
were to'proceed at eight and ten miles
a day. Kitchener was for pushing
forward in spite of orders. ‘My God!’
he would exclaim, ‘poor Gordon will
be murdered just because of. a lot of
fogheads -_at home.’ Every day or two
a runner would reach camp after
making his way through the Mahdi
army in disguise, and tell us that Gor-
don’s provisions were almost gone and
that he could hold out but a, few
days. Kitchener had figured out al-
most to the hour when we would
reach Khartoum at the rate we were
rravelling, and decided that he,would
get there too late. But he was only
a junior officer and his counsels to
push forward did not prevail. Finally
we were getting near Khartoum, and
copes of saving Gordon began to rise.
They were suddenly dashed to earth,
though, by the arrival of a Greek,
named Lycurgus. who was carried into
camp almost dead. He brought a
message from Gordon and Frank
Power, correspondent of the London
Fimes, to ‘come quick for God's sake.’
it was then too late. though. for the
Greek had just got clear of the Mah-
di's lines when the Dcrvishcs broke
into Khartoum and began the massa-
cre. “We reached there two days lat-
er only to final the city deluged in
blood. I-Iad Kitchener had his way
we could have saved Gordon.”

PROBLEMS OF THE WOODS.

What Becomes of Beast-s That Diea Nat-
ural Death.

“W'hat becomes of wild animals
that die in the woods?" said the hat-
uralist. “I mean wild animals that
lie 3. natural death. Age and dis—
ease must carry many of them reg-
ularly as human beings are carried
off, but what becomes of their bodies?
I have never heard of any one com-
ing across a dead bear or fox or wild—
cat in the woods that had died from
natural causes. I have never heard
of any one finding even the skeleton
of a wild animal in the woods that did
not show evidence somewhere that
the beast had met its death through
violence. But an uninjured skeleton
or bodv of a wild animal without a
wound, I have never heard of.

“I found once in the woods of Mc-
Keau county, Pa.. the skeletons of
two enormous bucks with their ant-
lers locked together. It was plain
that the two animals had been engag-
ed in mortal combat, during which
their horns had become entangled,
and it being impossible to break the
lock thus made, both bucks succumbed
to exhaustation and starvation.
Another time I found the body of a
doe in the woods. and near by lay the
mutilated remains of a big rattlesnake.
The story of the two bodies was
plain to me. The deer, true to its
nature. had attacked the'snakc. but the
snake had succeeded in striking the
deer with its fangs before the sharp
‘hoofs of the animal had killed it. I
have come upon many other dead
bodies and skeletons of wild animals
at different times in the woods, but
never one that did not show unques—
tionable evidence that the beast had
died from violence of some kind. So
the mystery as from natural causes
remains—New York Sun.

 

An Irishman’s Chivalry.

William Smith O’Brien, the leader
of the National party of Ireland, who
was transported in 1849, had none of
the gifts which attract the. multitude.
lie was not an orator, his manners
were not winning, and he made few
intimacies.

But his character and his well-
poised head put him at the head of
the Nationalists, whose purpose was
to secure the independence of Ireland.
An anecdote related in Sir Charles
Gavan Dufly’s book of reminiscences
“My Life in Two Hemispheres,”
shows the chivalry of the man.

He had a duel in the day when that
savage method. of settling disputes
'was the custom, and the two men
were placed opposite to each other.

Just as the signal, “One, two; three
—-fire!” was about to be given,
O'Brien cried: g,

“Stop! No signal, I pray.”

His opponent’s second stepped for-
ward and said with asperit‘y, -“This is
Veryvvirrcgular, sir. What do you
wish to say?" .

“I wish,” answered O'Brien, “to call
your attention to the fact that the
gentleman opposite me has let the can

In commerce the rose has not been;
without value. The most delightful
commercial product of the rose is that
known as the “Attar of Persia and,
India.” Although the production of
attar was discovered in Persia, the
industry has nearly died out there to
spring up in extensive rose farms in
Turkey; and about Kazanlik, on the
southern slope of the Balkans. close
to the Shipka, or wild rose pass. fa-
mous in the history of the Russia-
Turkish war.

The rose growing belt is situated at
an average altitude of 1,000 feet
above the sea and comprises seventy
miles in length and ten miles in

 

 

width. Since the emancipation of the
Balkan provinces the manufacture of
this exquisite perfume has beéome a
great industry in Bulgaria and has
been taken up in a large scale even in
Germany. Clhe ancestor of all. the
rose of Damascus. furnishes the great-
er number of blossoms. The White
musk rose is used. and a pink damask.
but the dark red variety outnumbers
them all. A fine attar is produced
from roses grown in Cashmere. The
attar is expensive, because it requires
an enormous quantity of blossoms to
distill even a few drops. -

It is claimed that it was discovered
by the favorite wife of Jehan Ghir,
through whose garden ran a canal of
rose-water. 0n the surface the Be-
gum discovered a few drops of the
precious attar or bi] floating.

Even arose-water has its value and
may be also included among the luxu-
rles.

The hundred-leaved rose, a variety
well known to the ancients and orig—
inally fennd in the Caucasus, is also
used to make rose-water and a medi-
cinal syrup. A mild astringent syrup
is made from the petals of the French
rose. The petals of the tea. rose, a
species of roisette, with a very fine
fragrance, are used in China for fla-
voring teas.

A vinegar made from roses is used
for headaches; a conserve of roses and
sugar is given medicinally to children.
The fruit or hip is also used that way,
while on the Continent dried hips are

as soups. .

The first cultivted rose is said to
have been planted in Britain in A. D.
151’2. The wild rose is a native of Bri-
tain. and grows abundantly. In the
time of Edward 111.. 1334, a gold coin
called a rose-noble, be-
cause on one side of it the form of a
rose was impressed.

In classical time there was a recon-
dite significance connected with the
rose. The statue of Diana of Ephesus
was coyered with roses and bees. It
is. connected by Dante with the
ineffable “Light of the Shekinah,"
while he terminates the Paradise with
the rose-cross.

The Rosicrucians, brothers of the
rosy-cross, a secret order, used for
their emblem the crucified rose. In
ancient times. when secret meetings
were held, men used to wear a chap-
let of roses on their heads. Later on
the forms of roses were painted and
carved on the ceilings of rooms or
halls where feasts were given, when
everything connected with them was
kept secret. From that custom came
the expression “sub-rose.” or “under
the rose,” which means that nothing
is to be revealed.

There is a fabled story that Cupid
gave a rose to the god of silence as a
bribe to prevent him‘ from betraying
the affairs of Venus. and that in this
way the rose became the symbol ol
silence.

Among the ancients the rose became
the symbol of modesty, of joy, 01
giadness and of grief. It crowned the
rcveler. it graced the garland of the
lover and shed its beauty and its fra—
grance upon the dead after life’s fit.
in! fever closed.

In mythology we find that the rose
was Venus’ own flower. It is also
associated with Bacchus, for we read
of chaplets of roses crowning the
heads of those wb~ indulged in Bar.»
channlinn orgies. Classic myths and
mediacvai lore afford a wealth ofbeau
til'ul legends connected with the rose.
which assure us that it has been a
favorite ever since it became known.

in Shakespeare we find seventy or
more mentions of the rose in the
plays. and in the fifty-fourth sonnet
the rose is described as truth. In his
timcit was considered the queen of
flowers. In Romeo and Juliet we
read. “remnants of pack-thread and
old cakes of roses were thinly scar-
tcred to make up a show.” In 'l‘welftl

EARLY USES OFGLASO.

Known First to ytho Egyptiannnt lab
fected by the Romans.

In an interesting article on “Om
mental Glass in All Ages,” in the
Woman’s Home Companion, Orlena L.
Shackleford has this to say of the an-
aqiiny of glass. The Egyptians used,
glass ornaments largely for personal
decoration. Necklaces, bracelets,
beads, scarabaei, etc., of exquisite
beauty have been discovered in their
tombs. It also served to bedeck cloth-
ing, and innumerable domestic ob-
jects were made of it for daily use.
Indeed, the accommodating medium
was adapted by them to an infinity
of purposes, being blown, cast, rolled,
wrought or cut, as the worker willed,
whether into statues of their gods or
as glass eyes for the sightless sockets
of their mummies, to express the
wish of the soul to arrive safe and
whole at the end of its journey. .. The
Romans excelled the Egyptians as
extensive users of glass. It served
them for decoration to walls and
floors, for all sorts of domestic vessels,
cinerary urns and cofiins (the Egyp-
tians buried Alexander the Great in a
glass coffin), for ornaments, toys, dice,
draughts, chessmen and water clocks.
We read of a table of solid emerald
that was carried off by the Goths
when they sacked the -Eternal City,
but it is now considered not to have
been of precious stone—only fine green
glass or jasper—yet deemed sufficiently
valuable to be set with pearls and
mounted in gold.

“These great builders—the most
practical of antiquity—were not slow
to realize the value of this transparent
medium as a means for transmitting
light into their palaces and temples;
but their window-panes were only
from ,7'to 10 inches square, and the
glass was more green than white,
lacking the crystal clearness of our
modern productions. Glass mirrors
were known to the Egyptians and Ro-
mans. Specimens have been found in
the tomb-s of the former, and docu-
mentary evidence from Pliny, Seneca
Lucretius and others undoubtedly
proves their possession by the latter.
Glass was used for lamps in Pompeii,
but we have no evidence of its being
applied to such a purpose in Egypt,
where'it was appropriated more large-
ly to ornamental and decorative rather
than domestic purposes.”

 

 

WHY HIS WIFE CAME BACK.

Hubby Out Five Dollars and In not a
Frigid Home Atmosphere.

An Omaha man, whose business it
is to write a great deal, and not in the
shape of correspondence, would rat-her
take quinine than write letters. His
wife is a great letter-writer, and when
she goes away she insists on receiving
a. daily letter from her husband. If
he fails she comes home in short order,
and for a time the atmosphere of the
home is frigid.

A short time ago the wife Went on
a visit to her parents, and before leav-
ing gave her husband explicit instruc-
tions to write every day. He prom-
ised to do so, and meant to keep the
promise. He forgot the first day
until too late, so be wired that he
would write the following day. That
night be secured the services of a
steno-grapher and dictated a letter.

“Now I want you to use that letter
as a mode,” he said to the stenogra—
p'hcr, “and write tvvelve others, all
differently worded, but containing
about the same thing. Date each one
a day ahead of the other, put each
in an envelope properly addressed, and
attend to mailing for me. Here’s
$5 for your trouble.”

The stenographer who was young
and inexperienced, agreed.

Three days later the husband re-
ceived a telegram reading: “Will be
home on first train. Meet me.” The
wife’s name appeared at the bottom.

The husband was distressed, fear-
ing that something had happened.
Time passed slowly, but‘at last the
train arrived. When his wife stepped
from the train be grasped her and
asked:

“What’s the matter, my dear?"

The wife said not a word but walked
into the depot. Then she opened her
little grip and quietly handed her hus-
band a bunch of letters.

The stenographer had followed her
instructions, but she had mailed all
the letters on the same day—Omaha
VVorld—Herald.

 

\Vhen Reynolds Reigned Supreme.

An interesting anecdote is told of
Sir Joshua Reynolds. The famous
portrait painter used great quantities
of snuff, and he would take it so freely
when he was painting that it frequent-
ly inconvenienced those sitters who
were not addicted to it. During the
time he was engaged in painting the
large picture of the Marlborough

family, at Blenheim, the Duchess org

dered a servant to bring a broom and
to sweep up Sir Joshua’s snufi‘f'from
the carpet; but the painter, who al-
‘ways withstood the fantastic head
tossings of some of his sitters, by
never sufieri-ng any interruption to
take place during his application to
his art, ordered the man, when he
entered the room to obey the Duchess’s
commands, to let the snuff remain till
he had finished his picture, observing
that the dust- raised by the bum
would do much more injury to his
picture than the snuff could possibly
do the carpet. The servant was, for
the moment, quite bewildered, but
regaining his wits. be appealed to his
mistress, and, on receiving no sign
from her. he retired silently from the
room, leaving his task unaccomplished.
