The Great Navy of Grcnt Britain.

a displacement of 1900 tons and a
speed of twenty-five knots may appear at
present chimerical idea, but is for this
class of vessels that the British govern
mcnt is very soon to select bids, says tho
New York Times. The new first class
fighting cruisers will be sixty feet longer
than the Blake-that is 435 feet long.
adding fifty feet amidships to be utilized
for GOALS. When the new programme
is completed the British navy will be
larger than it has been since 1913, pos
sessing 57S cruisers. This seems Il large
number of shops, but it must be remcm-
bered that the steam tonnage of Great
Britain's mercantile marine equals that
of all the rest of the world put togcths,
and that for every ship of war having
fourteen knots speed now in the British
navy there are ll3 ships to protect.

gram to THE BEE. The news of Judge
Shiras' adverse decision in the river land case
was a great shock to the settlers, who will
lose their homes by it. Many of them still

none of whom was blessed with beau

their homely youth, and when he re-
turned few years later fonnd them
all married to good, influential men,
SO great was his surprise that he ven

They break down the fence; drive

they fight for it once or twice they
think they like the stubble. Well,
saw my girls weren't the most attrac-

You never found them in the hotels

to come to their fathers house.
When the neighbors saw how the

crowd they thought their value must
