When the Prince of Wales and
his wife wish to go to the theatre
notice is given TO the manager, who
prepares his largest box, or knocks
two boxes into one for the royal
party, and sets aside another bo6pfor
their suite. If the boxes have al
ready been sold the persons purchas-
ing are informed that they are
wanted for royalty, and are re
quested to call and get their money
back. Half dozen programmes are
printed ON colored satin, a lot of
bouquets are purchased for the
ladies, and an immense amount of
scarlet cloth is used in decorating
the house. The manager receives
the party personally. The raising
of the curtain is delayed until the
royal party is seated and the orches
ira plays ''God Save the Queen" At
intervals during the performance re-
freshments are sent mp to the royal
box. All this is at the expense of
the management.

NAVAL NOTES.

A Connecticut man has been grant
ed patent for portable fort. He
calls it revolving marine battery or
fort, for either offense or defense
He has planned to construct forti-
fcation that may be easily moved
from one point to another while con
tinuiDg in perfect fighting trim. 1t
closely resembles a monitor in out
ward appearance, but is simply re-
volving battery, consisting of steel
dome or turret on a real float. This
float consists of two bulls, and can
be propelled or towed. When in
action it is at anchor The feature
of the arrangement is that it has
two hulls, the inner one containing
the battery and stores SO balanced
like compass that it will retain a
level regardless of the motion
of the outer hull, and thus
have most accurate range for its
great guns. 1t can be made any
size.
The plans and specifications of
the three 2,000-ton gunboats, known
in the Navy Department as cruisers
Nos 9, 10 ana IL, are complete, and
the Department is now preparing
advertisements for their construc-
ton. The vessels are to cost $780,
600 each, excluding any premium
that may be paid for increased
speed and the cost of armament,
and are to be built wholly of steel or
with steel frames. They are to be
board have decided upon a plan
somewhat similar to the Yorktown,
but of an entirely new design.
The rig of the new vessels will be
two-mastsd schooner, with an indi-
Gated horsepower of 5000, which
will develop a speed of eighteen
knots.
The plans for the two 5000 ton
vessels, known as cruisers Nos. and
8, will approach nearer the Balti-
more type, which is from an original
English design. The cost of these
vessels will be $1,000,000 each, ex-
elusive of armament. The contracts
for these two vessels will contain a
provision that, when tested for speed
by the Navy Department, they shall
each exhibit maximum speed of at
least nineteen knots. They will be
built entirely of steel. The batteries
of these cruisers will be similar to
that of the Baltimore, consisting of
four eight-inch and four six-inch
breech-loading rifles, with a second
ar battery of fourteen machine
q 4tIiugs and revolving cannon.
Z 1e scheme for the armored cruiser
of $500 tons has been agreed upon
by the board, and the plans for this
and the 5,300-ton cruiser will be
made, at a cost of about S500,000,
and her guaranteed speed will be
twenty-one knots.
The cost of the 5,3OOton vessel
will be $1,S00,000, and she is to show
a 'peed of at least twenty knots.
In the case of each of these yes
sells, for every quarter of knot
shown above said guaranty the con-
tr, ctor shall receive a premium over
and above the contract price of
$4,000, and penalty in the same
amount for every quarter of knot
the vessel fails in reaching said
guaranteed speed.
The scheme for the steel cruiser
for the Naval Academy has been
finished in the Bureau of Construc-
ton and Repairs. The vessel is to
be of steel, 500 tons displacement,
and will cost S200,OOO Advertise
ments for the construction of this !
vessel will be issued next month.

There IS in some cities a society call

stand, gathers up all the money it can
and buys and makes up, or cuts out
garments basic and send to the poor

cut out patch work and all kinds Of
garments, and make use Of everything
thaS is donated. By this means the
children are taught that they have
friends and also to help themselves .
How good it must make one feel who is
able to contribute TO such q good work.
BenevOlenCe is best displayed in help

a New Railroad Tor Kirwin.

A New Railroad for Eirwin.
From the KiFwin Chief.
We read in the Kansas Civ Ne,rs
as follows: ''The Rock Island has
purchased the Santa Fe branch from
Minneapolis to Barnard and viii eT-
tend It to Phillipsburg." 1t has Oft
en- been limited as a probability that
the Rock Island would build Their
road on a direct route from Kansas
City and Topeka to some connection
In northwest Kansas which would
materially shorten the distance from
Kansas City to Denver, and It now
appears the road is to be built at
once. The most reasonable cOncIus-
ION Is that the connection will be
made at Phillipsburg, at which place
the company has already placed a
round house and numerous other
buildings. 1t is the halfway division
between st. Joseph and Denver. and
from all appearances Phillipsburg
viii make one Of the best towns on
the st. Joe and Denver route.
Taking it for granted that this line
OF road Is going to be built, and we
give it as our candid opinion that it
will, then the city Of Kirwin is exact
Iy on the proposed route The most
practicable survey will take in the
cities Of Osborne and Kirwin. Let
US see to 1t that no effort is spared to
secure this road.
