the successful vessel carried at the fore.
The number of shots fired while the YES
sci was in the firing arc, as well as the
distribution of these shots, were the two
quantities used in determining the figure
of merit. The cutlass drill is the same
as broadsword exercise, the men being
armed with wooden sticks, having a
large leather guard. This is an excel
lent muscle developing drill, and when
properly executed is quite well worth
watching, particularly at its close, when
a regular set-to is usually encouraged.
The pistol or revolver drill is for the pur-
pose of instruction in handling that wea-
pon, and to teach the men to become
good snap shots. The drill in the man
ual of arms, the loadings and firings and
the skirmish drill, as far as simple de-
ployment and accustoming the men to
the various bugle calls are concerned,
are about all the instruction in soldier
ing that can we'll be given on ship
board. Mob tactics, marchings and re-
views, as well as a more extended skir-
mishing and rifle target firing, have to
be postponed until navy yard or some
convenient port is reached.
The only torpedoes at present furnished
vessels are those known as "spar torpe-
does" which are used both from long
booms fitted alongside of the vessels, and
smaller ones for working in the steam
launches. Improvising torpedoes, fuzes
and fittings from ones own resources
forms a valuable feature of this exercise.
Gun cotton is the explosive now used in
all naval torpedoes. The newer vessels
are to be fitted with automobile torpe-
does, which are, of course, an immense
change from "a bag of powder at the end
of a stick" Proficiency in handling the
various types of machine and rapid fire
artillery consists, not only in the ability
to load and fire with rapidity and precis-
ion, but also to thoroughly master the
true inwardness of ne various kinds of
arms and to be able to dismount and re-
assemble the pieces as readily as any ex-
pert in the factory at which they were
made. By this means alone can the de-
lays caused by a jamming or breaking of
some one of the many parts be readily
overcome when the time of actual use in
battle arrives. The powder division is

dagships is usually placed in this divis-
ion, and although classed among the nom
combatants, the powder division is really
one of the most important in the ship, as

men especially detailed from the guns

teation. a portion, say about third of
the engineers force, is distributed be-
tween the powder and gun divisions. In
addition to the regular duties the powder
division is exercised at the battery and
at small arms, in order to be capable of
looking after the vessel when the bat
talon is ashore for fighting purposes.
The men in the navi9ator's division are
generally distributed about the vessel
in time of action to look out after her
steering, the signals, the souLdings and
the repairs shat may DC necessary to her

portion of their drilling is confined to
infantry, in which they attain an ur-
usual degree of proficiency in the course
of three years cruise. Their duties
aboard ship differ materially from those
of the sailors, as they perform sentry
and orderly duties, three or four of them
being continually on guard duty day and

Court Cleared by a Leper.

Something of a panic was created
recently in a st. Louis court when a
leper was produced on writ of habeas
corpus. The writ was directed against
the city officials, who were directed to
bring the leper from quarantine in order
to demonstrate to the court that the man
was really leper and was not being
unlawfully restrained of his liberty. The
judge took one glance at the loathsome
creature, whose body was covered with
blue and white blotches, from which
scales were constantly dropping. He
was Immediately convinced that the
man was a genuine leper, ordered him
back TO quarantine and adjourned court
to give the janitor chance to fumigate
and air the place.-Philadelphia Ledger.

sells tC che new steel cruisers is only Just
begun, and the older systems of drills
are carried out on board of the very
large majority of naval vessels now in
commission. Should the various propo-
sitions for the incorporation Of naval
reserve, now so much talked about
throughout the country, be carried into
effect, the drills will have, by sheer
force of circumstances, to partake more
of the nature of what has been the meth
cd for years than of what would apply
more especially to improved breech
mechanism, torpedo tubes and smoke
less powders.
The reason for this is not far to seek,
and lies chiefly in the fact that Just at
present the navy does not possess enough
of the modern cruisers for its own press
ing needs, and the receiving ships and
monitors that will probably be the YES
sells first utilized for drill purposes by
the pioneers of the auxiliary naval forces,
or naval reserve contingent, are already
of a past day and generation. The for
mer were crack frigates of their time
and were models in the days of smooth
bore cannon and full sail powered ships;
the latter came in with the civil war, as
soon after Ericsson's vessel proved her
prowess ut Hampton Roads as they could
be constructed, and have hardly been in
active service since. A half million of
dollars, more or less, is mentioned as the
sum necessary to put them in condition
for cruising service; but as this eXpendi-
ture seems exorbitant for the small
amount of good they are to the navy at
large. the secretary of the navy suggests
their use as drill vessels for the naval
reserve IN its preliminary exercises to
prepare itself to man the coast defense
vessels in time of actual service. The
usual custom aboard all men-of-war is to
have "quarters" at $50 in the morning

There are always a large number of men
on board vessels of war who are not sta
toned at the guns. They are the serv-
ants, the engineers force, the various
petty officers, whose general duties are
below decks; the men required to attend
to the steering of the vessel, handling
the signals, sounding apparatus, ETC.. 1;
also the carpenters, whose particular
duties are to look out for and stop up
shot holes and other damage during an

in the magazines and shell rooms, and
the marines.
All of these are drawn up on the oppo-
site side of the deck to that on which the
gun divisions assemble; the powder di-

DRAGGING.

He was induced to give his attention to
the matter from several cases of drown
ing which came under his especial no
tice. A case in point occurred few
years ago at Marseilles. A sailor who
was painting the sides of the vessel fell
into the sea. He sank at once and bub-
bles showed exactly where he lay. Sew
eral good divers went down for him, but
the water was eighty feet deep and too
dark above the drowning sailor for them
to see him. His body was recovered
several hours afterwards by dragging
the bottom.
This incident led Lieut.. Debrosse to in
vent what is called the Debrosse grapnel.
The position of one who has sunk being
known approximately by rising air bub-
bles, the grapnel is lowered, its weight
carrying it down vertically. Then
string is jerked, and the four sections of
the metallic globe open like arms, and
closing in on the body when the machine
is lifted, bring it to the surface. The OBJ
ject is to recover the drowning person
before life has become extinct

beauty Of this magical remedy is, that it contains
no injurious substance that will cause harm to
any one. 1t is essentially a tonic and nerve-food,
which tones the stomach, and builds up the
nerves and brain. Dyspepties should never fail
to use it. Mark this, Rogers Royal Nervine is
prepared under the direction of competent ply

1t MAY Consist of Only Six Clubs Next
Season.
Secretary Barr. of the County League, gave
a few pointers yesterday regarding the probable
makeup of the Allegheny County Baseball
League for the approaching season. MI. Barr
said that the league would consist of six or
eight clubs, probably the former number. He
declined to say what, in his opinion. would be
the clubs.
1t is understood. however. that If the league
is limited to six clubs, they will be as follows:
East End Athletics, KcKeesport, Braddock,
Homestead, Greensburg, and Etna. If there
are eight clubs. the Southside Reds and the
Oaklands will likely be the additional two The
idea of having a county club at McKeesport is
for fear the ri-Sta league is not a success.
The McKeesport Club officials are willing to
organize a county club. Greensburg is out of
the county, but the rules will be changed SO as
to admit q club from that city.

tomorrow. Mr.. Ward will also have a confer

Manager Hanlon is not opposed to 1t.
Secretary Brunell has sent out notices of the
special meeting referred to above. The meet
