The queens signature to state doc
uments is still a model of firmness
and legibility, nc sign OF her majesty's
advanced age being discernable in the
boldly written Victoria R." which
she attaches to such papers as have to
bear the royal autograph. There are
veteran statesmen living who will re-
member that the question of the
signing of state documents by the
sovereign became of considerable
Importance in the last month of
George Tvs reign. During this
period his majesty was in such a de-
bilitated state that the writing of
numerous autographs was practically
impossible for him, ana under these
circumstances a short bill was hur-
riedly passed through parliament au-
thorizing the king TO affix a fac-simile
of his autograph by means of an
linked stamp.
Ii was also provided, however, in

There are many girls who retire at
night thoroughly tired, and forgetting
therefore to wash their faces jus I be-
fore seeking their pillows for the
much-needed slumber. This is a great
mistake both on account of health
and beauty. Not only does any par
ticle of dust on the face have time to
create havoc before morning, but If
cosmetics have been used, Ii is a dis
astrous neglect; the poisons or chemi-
Gals eat into the skin and destroy its
smoothness as we'll as white ness, and
have a clear entrances through the
pores into the system. BY using a
plentiful supply of warm water on the
face before resting, much damage to
the skin is saved and much goo d
toward its preservation is accom-
plished.

To Exile an American Citizen.

To Exile an American Citizen.
Another stupid and stubborn ty-
rant-Repubiican, Of course-has been
unearthed in the State of New York.
His name, which no doubt will be hand
ed down along with that Of Warden
Brown, the Sing Sing censor of the
press, is O'Beirne, and unfortunately
for at least one American citizen, and
perhaps many others, he happens to
be Acting Superintendent OF Immi-
grafton at the port of New York.
General O'Beirne takes the astound-
ing ground that a native American
who is so unfortunate a to become..a
stowaway in order to reach home
after a disastrous experience abroad
has no right to land on these shores.
Accordingly, General 0'Beirne, in the
absence Of his superior, whose judg-
ment, it is to be hoped, is not 70
warped. has ordered the imprison-
ment of Frank Sherman, nineteen
years old, on board the National Line
steamship England, with instructions
to the officers of the ship to take him
back to the English port whence he
sailed.
Sherman. according to his affidavit,
was born in Milwaukee. He entered
a lawyers Office in Denver, Col, and
after a time came East to better his
fortunes. Like many another he
could find no work in the metropolis
and on June 10 shipped as a cattle
hand on the Red Star steamship
Nederland- The work of a cattle
hand is entirely unsuited to a law
student, and Sherman applied to the
United States Consul at Deptford,
England, for assistance to get home.
The Consul broadly limited the pro-
priety Of becoming a stowaway, and
Sherman hid himself aboard the ship
that brought him here.
Sherman makes affidavit to all
these things, but General O'Beirne
ignores this affidavit. Sherman's
mother has telegraphed from Mil
waukee. asking for the release of her
son, stating that he is an American,
but General O'Beirne says the tele-
gram is no evidence at all, and that
Sherman must be identified as thor
oughly as a man who wants a check
cashed at a bank. General O'Beirne
does not claim hat he has the slight
est evidence that Sherman is a for
eigner. He simply supposes that he
Is and is frank enough to admit the
ridiculous supposition, adding that it
is incumbent upon Sherman to prove
himself not an alien.
The problems presented by the i'm
tense numbers of people, foreign and
native, landing upon these shores viii
scarcely be made easier of solution
through any experience General
O'Beirne may acquire. He is plainly
beyond ordinary teaching. Mean
while, unless something extraordi-
nary occurs to shake the Generals
position. Sherman will be sent back
to England-an exile from his native
land.
Under the circumstances it will be
highly proper for the British Govern
ment to forbid his landing on English
territory. So the only way for him to
solve the problem of his future exist
ence, apparently, is to jump over
board and settle on the bottom of the
Atlantic.

GIGANTIC CONTRACTS.
Nearly S12,OOO,OOO to Be Paid for Four
New War Ships.

Nearly $12 ZOO, 900 to Be Paid for Four
New War Ships.
The shipyards of the Cramps in
Philadelphia have entered upon the
execution of the largest contracts that
nave ever been let to any one estab-
ishment by this Government at any
me time Their contract covers SILL
80, 900, and their bonds are Is per
cent. of that amount.
The contract calls for one armed
,rusier of s, 100 tons displacement and
Ia. 900 horsepower, to cost So, 800, 600
Two battle-ship s, each of which will
carry $4,000 tons, have $4,000 horse
power, and cost So, 100000; one pro-
Eected crusier, capable of carrying
1900 tons, of q, 900 horse power, to
cost So, 725,O00.
The two battles ships will weigh
10000 tons. Of the total weight OF
these two vessels it is safe to say that
IS per cent will be made up of hulls.
machinery, and armor, amounting to
Is, 600 tons of manufactured steel.
In the cruisers the relative weight of
steel will be less, but of the $4,000
tons in those vessels, at least lO,OOO
tons will be manufactured steel. In
other words, there will be used during
the next three or four years in the
Cramps shipyard $4,000 tons of man
ufactured steel, the cost of which will
be in the neighborhood of 81, 1000, 900.
Nearly the whole of this sum Of 81,
300, 900 will be expended in the steel
plants of Pennsylvania. What this
expenditure will mean to the employees
IF this great industry in Pennsylvania
can only be left to the imagination to
depict.
This great fraction Of the enormous
total of these contracts will be widely
distributed. The major portion of the
vast reward for the labor thus employed
upon the new navy will, however, be
distributed in Philadelphia.
The shipyards of the Cramps, when
running at their fullest capacity on
these contracts. will employ every
working day in the week from 5000 to
1000 men The number employed
will vary between these figures accord
ing to the readiness with which ma
berial for their work is supplied. AS
suming that only $500 men are en-
ploYed on the average during every
day for the next four years, their pay
roll, calculated upon the average
wages paid at the yard Of the Cramps.
will amount to about $4,000 week,
including piece work. This means
80, 100000 a year, or somewhere be-
tween IS, $50, 900 and Sc, 500, 900 in the
next three years.

Power One Hundred NIilcS.

Oae of the features of the coming
electrical exhibition at FrankfOrt-on-
the-Main will be the transmission OF
power on a scale hitherto never at
tempted. When it was announced
some months ago that it was proposed
to transmit 100 horsepower from
Lauffen on the -Neckar to Frankfort, a
distance of more than 100 miles, the
statement was received with smiles of
incredulity; but now it seems quite
probably that not only will the expert
ment be tried but that it will succeed,
in site of the engineering difficulties
that have to be surmodnted. The
Government has been asked to supply
line for the purpose, and on the system
used the expense will not necessarily
be at all severe, for the use Of very po-
tential alternating currents is the feat
ure of the scheme as at present
planned. The alternating generator
will supply step-up transformer that
in turn will transmit it's secondary cur
rent at an enormously high potential
along the line, to be retransformed by
a step-down transformer at Frankfort
to a potential practicable for an alter
mating motor. A series of experiments
carried on recently at Oerlikon involve
the use of pressures as high as $4,000
volts on the line. At such potential
the current transmitted becomes so
small that the line is relatively small
factor in the losses incurred, even
though it be of the extreme length pro-
posed. Nothing can better illustrate
the characteristic advantages of the al
ternating system than this beautiful
process of generating and utilizing
currents at moderate potential and
transmitting them from station to sta
ton at pressure so enormous that
the losses in transitu become insig-
niticant. -EIectrjca World.

Mccarthy had submitted story. One
day he said to Mr.. Sheldon:
Il have come to see if you will take
that story offered the Galary?"
"Yes," cordially responded Mr. Shell

Time passed, and one day Mccarthy
walked into the GALAXY Office with an
imposing pile of manuscript under his
arm.
What is that?" asked Mr. Sheldon.
Mccarthy laid the bundle of manu-
script upon the publishers desk and
replied:
