CRADLE OF OCEAN WARRIORS.

Cramp ~ sons Shipyards. where Dur Fast
est Cruisers Are Built.
Since the United States has begun to
make pretensions as a naval power the
American people have acquired a lively
interest in naval architecture and can
give You offhand an elucidation Of all
the points of difference between a cruiser
and a line Of battle ship and an accurate
comparison of the naval strength OF the
great nations of the earth. To these
nautical amateurs a most interesting in
stitution is the great shipbuilding yards
Of William Cramp 81 Sons at Philadel-
phia, where many Of our latest, largest
and fastest cruisers were constructed.
William Cramp, the founder of the
firm, commenced business in a modest
way in 1880. building wooden and steam
sailing vessels. Two sons, Charles FL.
and William M. Cramp, were admitted
into partnership in 1867, and in 1868 three
younger Cramps became members Of the
firm. Mr.. Charles FL. Cramp stands at
the head of the firm as at present organ
lied. He looks after the social interests
Of the firm-a very important depart

Passed.
The political campaign through which
the German empire is passing at this
time has rarely been surpassed in inn
portance. In fact, it may not be going
too far to say that greater interests now
depend on the decision Of the German
voters than have ever before been at
stake in a political contest. The situa-
ton is in a way simple enough. The
young Kaiser William believes that the
army of the fatherland should be ma
terially strengthed in order to insure the
safety and integrity Of the empire. The
army bill, of which so much has been
printed. was drawn for the purpose of
bringing about the increase in number
Of soldiers and general effectiveness Of
the army that he deems necessary. The
reichstag failed to agree with him and
refused TO pass the bill, ~wherenpon the
kaiser promptly dissolved that body, and
an election FOR n new reichstag was or
dered to begin June Is.
In Germany the candidate to be sue
cessful must secure a clear majority over
all opposing candidates. When the votes
are counted, IL no one candidate has been
thus clearly selected as the choice of the
people, a new election is ordered, the
two candidates receiving the highest
number of votes being the only ones who
may enter the lists for the second time.

The recent effort OF some c~onspicuously
pious men to seize for their own coun-
try's benefit q country which belongs to
another race points the moral OF Herbert
Spencer's assertion that what men be-
lieve they believe is very different from
what they really do believe. The actions
of Americans in regard to Hawaii rem
der these words of Spencer peculiarly
interesting: "A society in which the
most exalted principles Of self sacrifice
for the benefit OF neighbors are enunci-
ated may be q society in which unscru-
pulous sacrifice Of alien fellow creatures
Is not only tolerated, but applauded.
Along with professed anxiety to spread
these exalted principles among heathens
there may go the deliberate fastening Of
a quarrel upon them with q view to an
nexing their territory. Men who every
Sunday have listened approvingly to in
functions carrying the regard for other
people to an impracticable extent may
yet line themselves out to slay at the
word of command any people In amy part
Of the world, utterly Indifferent to the
right or wrong of the matter fought
about."-Boston Transcript.
