go through their six months term in
the gunnery class greater proportion
do not go back to the navy, but seek
and readily obtain employment with
some OF the great electric concerns. The
training these boys have had, and the
education they have received by the time
they are competent to handle gun has
also made first-class electricians of
them: for to handle piece of modern

Oxidizcd Water i'm Medicine.

1t appears from the statements made
in medical quarters that peroxide of
hydrogen. or oxidized water, is rapidly
taking an important place in medicine
being declared not only good or useful,
but really necessary. AS ordinarily
known, the peroxide of hydrogen is 30
per cent. solution, yielding fifteen times
its volume of oxygen; and in its appli-
cation this solution is said to be nearly
as bland as water. causing smarting
only on such surfaces as the interior
OF the eye or nose, yet it acts so power
fully as Il germicidc, as to kill anthrax
spores i'll IL few minutes. The chief
value, however, of the peroxide is as
serted to be in stopping suppuration
and stcrilizing wounds, which it does
more effectually than any other sub
stance. AS claimed, it clcanscs all pus
from cavities not easy to reach, as in
abscess of the brain, and so thorough
ly are the microbes dcvitaizcd that one
application only is often quite sufficient
to stop abrupt ly formation of pus and
cause the speedy healing of large sur

The majority of travellers will tell
you that they don't sleep soundly in
sleeping ears, that they never feel
rested in the morning and that night
railroad trips are an abomination. This
may be all true, but if they don't sleep
well il is often their own fault. Very
few people know how to sleep in IL
sleeping car. The secret is this. Sleep
with your head toward the engine. BY
SO doing You will not wake up with a
headache or spend n restless night.
When the feet are toward the engine
the motion of the train causes the blood
to settle in the head, and rest is then
out of the question. The porters know
this, but only on II few lines will they
bother to change ends when making up
bcrths. Insist upon their doing it and
you will pass comfortable night-that
is, if you have good health and clear

The Steamer Namichow Goes Down in
Chinese Waters.


Chinese Waters.
LONDON. Jan. Ia Special IA dis
patch received here to-day from Hong
Kong, stating that the steamer Meifoo
has arrived at that port bringing the in
tclligence of tho loss of the steamer
Namichow off Cupeni Points. Tho
Melfoo reports that the shaft of the
Namichow broke supposedly at point
where ii energies frem the hull. This
allowed the water to rush into the shaft
and make its way to the enginne room,
then into the fire room. The steamers
fires were soon cXtinguished, and she
settled rapidly. The water continued
pouring in unchecked and in short
Time the vessel foundered.
The Namichow was employed in the
trading locality in China seas, and she
had on board very large number of
Chinese passengers. She sank so
rapidly that it was impossible to launch
her boats, even had she had enough to
carry all hands on board.
When she went down she carried with
her 4 Ia passengers, every ono of whom
was drowned. The steamer was Off
cered by Europeans, and her crew also
consisted of sailors, 1iremen, etc, from
the different European countries. They
stood at their posts to tho last, and did
everything possible to save their YES
sci. All went down with the steamer.
