FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH.

When Il long period of illness comes to a
rich man or woman they are more able to pity
other invalids, remarks the female cores
pondent of the Chicago Mems A tender in
stance of this is in the founding of the
Roosevelt Hospital by the late James II.

nently before the press. When Mr.. Roose-
welt became of age he inherited from his
father an immense estate. He soon became
engaged to Miss Eliza Jane Boardman, an
accomplished young lady Of this city But
before the marriage took place he suffered n
stroke of paralysis, which was destined TO
confine him TO quiet life for thirty years.
His engagement, Of course, was broken, but
his loving sweetheart remained single for
his sake, and the two were as ISOLATED as
brother and sister. In all of Mr.. Roosevelts
schemes of benevolence Miss Boardman was
an untiring assistant. For him she o.
ohewad society and devoted her time aud
talents to good works. In his win he be-
queathed her life annuity of $1,000 (she
already had means), and the personal prop
erty inherited from his father, which he had
increased by care, he willed to the hospital
which bears his name, making Miss Board.
man sole executrix. The use OF his real es-
tate he left to his nephew, James Roosevelt
Brown, son Of one of the Brown Brothers,
bankers, who had married Mr.. Roosevelfs
sister. BY the provisions Of the will this
real estate was also to pass to the hospital
in the event of Mr.. Brown dying childless.
1t TRANSFERRED that his death occurred exactly
Ave weeks after his uncle's death, so that
the hospital was doubly benefited. 1t is a
great and good hospital, and think the
manner in which tho New York press have
abused the Medical Faculty Of Roosevelt
is unkind, TO say tho least In some recent
autopsies blame has been attached to the
physicians in charge on account Of then
youth.

England's Big Guns.

England big tpns.
The bombardment of Alexandria supplies
a test of the marvellous degree of perfection
to which heavy artillery has been brought in
our day. Arab Bey's garrison had no guns
fit to make any impression upon the heavily
armored war vessels which moved slowly
through the harbor and, at short range, made
every broadside effective.
1t is not matter for surprise that non
combatants in Alexandria should take re-
fuge in their cellars when they heard or saw
the huge missiles of the Inhexible 20 hurt
ling through the air That vessel carries
four eighty-ton guns, each of which mon
sters is about twenty-seven feet in length
with a bore sixteen inches in diameter. The
ordinary service charge is three hundred
and seventy pounds of powder behind one
thousand seven hundred pound projectile.
This latter messenger of civilization is Of
chilled iron. four feet in ZENITH and little
less in diameter than the bore of the gun.
Imagine mass of iron, conical at one end,
with q cavity of five inches by thirty-six in
the middle of it, to receive a bursting
charge, and altogether nearly as big as
two lager beer kegs placed end to end;
that is the kind of pellet flung BY the In.

al ordinary range it will pierce twenty inches f
wrought iron. with similar thickness of seasoned
teak wood between the three iron plates, and will
then burst with tremendous energy. From these
data we may infer its effect upon the comparative
ly feeble masonry Of the Khedive's forts.
The guns discharging these terrific missiles arc
housed within thickly armOrcd revolving turrctS,
8re operated entirely with hydraulic machinery,
and arc invisible except when their muzZles ap-
pear at the orfccs through which they deal out
death and destruction. The instant the shot has

So perfect that child control its every mo-

p,nion piece hurls out its thousand seven hun
drcd pound charge of iron.
Great Britain has spent good deal Of money on
her navy during the past dozen years and has
something to show for it. The United States have
also expended q mint of money on their navy
within the past dozen years but the cash went
through Robeson's hands and Robson alone take
pride i'll what we have to show for t.-N. Y. Star.
