The many cases of rheumatism cured by

FRENCH FLAGsHIP ARETHUsE.

FRENCH FLAGSHIP ARETHUSE.
Spain sends the Reina Regcnte Queen
Regent), which was, or was thought to be,
the fastest efficient cruiser afloat, but that
honor Is now claimed for the latest United
States cruiser New York. The Duke Of
Veragua, sprung from branch Of the royal
house of Spain, will command the Spanish
feet, and the Reina Regente Is his flagship.
She is of 5000 tons displacement and IL 81e
feet in length. She draws 90 feet OF water,
and with her II, 000-horsepower engines can
steam 20.7 knots an hour She carries ak
1o-centimeter and as many 12-centimetsr
breechloading rifles.
Next In size in the Spanish contingent
comes the Infsnta ISABEL, a sloop gunboat
of 1,13O tons. She is 21o feet long and has
q beam of 80 feet. She can do her IA knots
an hour and carries four 12-centimeter and
two 7-centimeter rifles. The fnfanta Ysa-
bel took part in the October Columbus
celebration in New York harbor under the
auspices of the municipal government.
Last in point of size OF the Spanish vessels
comes the gunboat Nueva Espana.
Italy sends three protected cruisers, the
Giovanni Bausan being the flagship. She
is 275 feet z inches in length and is OF
3,068 tons displacement. She can whirl
along at II knots with her 9, 500-horsepowsr
engines. She carries two 25-centimeter and

BRITISH FLAGSHIP BLAKE.


In addition to these it is probable that
the new cruiser, the New York, which has
proved herself to be the fastest cruiser in
the world at her trial trip off Delaware
breakwater, will be ordered to join the
American forces.
And still this cold array of names and
figures gives but a faint idea or the SOLD
kmagnificence of the new American navy.
The reader who has not kept himself in
formed of our progress for the last 10 years
can have no idea of the rapidity with which
our reproach among nations has been taken
away and how near we are to our old pre-
eminence in the times when Decatur thun-
dered against Algiers. and Hull, Lawrence,
Porter and others boldly challenged the
mistress of the seas. But few figures on
this point will be given later.
Next in display to the United States will
come Great Britain, of course. She has in
these seas eight great warships, but only
five are certain to be in this review. or
these the greatest-and, as some English
authorities have maintained, the best in
the world, all things considered-is the fa-
NOUS Blake. In tonnage she outranks all
United States ships. She is a protected
cruiser and is of 1900 tons displacement
She is 375 feet I'm length, with beam of 65

22-ton and ten 6-inch 5-ton breechloading
rifles, which overshadows any of the arms
carried by the United States cruisers. She
carries a crew of 574 men, and the arrange
ment of her engines is claimed to be scien-
tifcally perfect. She is propelled by twin
screws, driven by four distinct sets of triple
expansion, inverted cylinder engines, placed
In four separate compartments, two sets
being coupled together on the port and star
board sides respectively for driving each
screw. No damage to one set in action can
interfere with the other, and similarly each
gun has its own Independent supply, SO
that the explosion of one can have no effect
on another. Imagine, if you can, this vast
floating fortress of the sea vomiting over
600 pounds of solid metal from each side at
every shot and nearly as much more from
bow and stern.
After the Blake the other British ships
seem small indeed. But among them is the
armored cruiser Australia of $500 tons, q
handy and fast vessel, fitted with ID, $50
horsepower engines and battery OF two
9-inch and ten 6-inch breechloading rifles.

beam of ~ Feet. With 1900 horsepower

1t will surprise most Americans to Learn
that Spain claims naval prominence n
these waters next to Great Britain, and that
our old ally, France, has paid very little at
tention to this affair Nevertheless Francs
has sent the Arethuse, Bussard ana Jean
Bart. The Arethuse is wooden ship OF
the old style, with projecting ram. She
Is 277 feet long, with A feet beam and 20
feet draft. She can steam under favorable
circumstances about IS knots an hour. She
Is handsome looking vessel, but so far "a
fighting is concerned is just as obsolete ~
hintlock rife. The Hussard is another
old fashioned craft, but the Jean Bart II
comparatively modern and efficient.
This is as it should be, for she Is named
for the greatest naval genius France ever
produced, fsherman's son who fought his
way up to the rank of an admiral, and OF
whom scores of amusing anecdotes are still
told by French sailors One of them runs
thus: He had the Prince de Cont as pas
senger and beat off an English attack so
that the prince congratulated him on their
escape from capture, whereupon he replied
that there had been no danger at all OF that
fate, as he had taken the precaution to send
his son to the powder magazine with q
match, ready to blow up the ship as soon
IS he gave him the order.

How Sap Rises In tho Leaves.

To great degree, it is the result of a
mode of diffusion which has been called
endosmose. Water largely evaporates
from the leaves; it flies off into the air
as vapor, leaving behind all the earthly
and the organic matters-these not being
volatile. The sap in the cells of the leaf
therefore becomes denser, and so draws
upon the more watery contents of the
cells of the stalk, these upon those of the
stem below, and so on from cell to cell
down to the root, causing q flow from
the roots to the leaves, which begins In
the latter, just as wind begins in the
