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 A mwnmnmfi knots less. ‘ '1 HE .15 quM G GAZETTE ' RHEUMATISM CURED IN A DAY i Ioldiers.

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 (all of! his nistnl."

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 Night. “by the roscs of the spring. b3 honor. truth and’everything, I love thee so.” There are few poets win have not given graceful and honorabl- meution of the rose. . The Latin poet, Horace, even though ll} often alludes to the myrtle bush the, vine-wreathed elm, the olive thickets, the thick-woven shade of the laurels. the violet bed, the tall spreading pine. the white-leaved pop lar. the coronal of rosemary, the rug gcd oak. does not omit the rose; “whii: (be odors of Syrian nard and the ross breath" sweet from locks tipped. am just tipped with Time’s snows."—Odu 11.

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.
