almost forbidding in appearance. But
within the palace stands uprivaled in
the gorgeous splendor Of its halls and
the exquisite beauty of its decorations
Spacious courts, with marble pillars
and pretty ceilings, partitions cOlored
and gilt, and filagree stuccos of veil-like
transparency, all distinguished by airy
lightLess and grace, are among the main,
features Of this home of the princes Of
Granada. The colors chiefly employed
are blue, red and golden yellow.
The grand apartment of the palace is

alabaster. and orralnented with the
most delicate fretwolk and arabesquts
The hall Of the Abenceri ayes, although
smaller, is still more beautiful. TIE
ceiling is of cedar wood, inlaid with
mothcr-of-s earl, ivory and silver, and
the walls are stuccoed and ornamented
with aYabcsquos of he most elegant and
intricate design. This hall derives it's

WORSE THAN A SHAM BATTLE
The Recent British Naval Naneuvers
CriticIzing Admiral seymour.
The waste of money involved in the
recent British naval maneuvers is still
irritating the public, end ridicule con-
tinues to be heaped upon Admiral Sey-
mour, commanding the supposedly hos
tile fleet. who steamed out into the At
lantic about 800 miles and remained
there until the period allotted for the
maneuvers was over, thus effectually
escaping defeat AS The Times SAYS
Great Britain would feel under obiiga-
tions to any enemy that would act in
this accommodating fashion.
The only useful lesson of the maneu-
vers is said to be that navy should make
use of no guns so heavy as TO be entirely
dependent upon hydraulic machinery
for loading and working For several
hours two out of four heavy guns in the
Infexible and one of two heavy guns in
the Hero were disabled. owing 10 the
break down of hydraulic gear. and
during that time the weapons were as
useless as if they had been non-existent
| The rule in the German navy Is to have
no guns which cannot, in case of need,
be man-handled.

this matter the government and con-
gress should take 40 backward, or even
wavcring step, but should continue the
active and vigorous enforcement Of the

the amendment of such rs would make
them more effective. and by enacting
such other laws as experience may

accomplish the desired end
