Vice Admiral Colomb, of the British
Navy, who is regarded as one of tn e
leading naval authorities of the world,
has expressed an opinion regarding
fhe most available types of war ships,
particularly for the United States.
BE says that we should build battle
ships, armored cruisers and torpedo
boats, because they will be what we
shall need in case of any war we are
likely TO have. He says that if he had
control of the Navy Department of the
United States he would look at the
Nations with whom this country might
60 to war, and would then provide
enough battle ships to be superior to
The battle ships of any one of these
possible enemies, and continually keep
lp this superiority. He would also
build fast cruisers, many of which
should be armored-vessels like the
New York for example-and then, in
addition, fast torpedo boats as a means
of coast defense.

home, declining the appointment in a
letter to his indorser, Congressman
Bankhead, in which he said: 81 give

The Fascinating Fisheries Exhibit.

In no structure within the Fair
grounds is the outward expression
so sympathetically reflective of it's ar
chitectural purpose as in the Fisheries
Building. Itself reflected in the blue
lagoon, in its architectural functions
and sculptural ornament it in turn re-
fleets the lacustrine life Of the waters,
which not only almost lave its founda-
ton walls but actually pour into its in
terror in fountain and cascade and
gigantic aquaria. As we follow around
these green translucent walls within,
our passage lit only from the difused
light transmitted from above the water,
we can almost fancy ourselves walking
on the actual river bed, ogled by ia
miliar forms of sun-fsh, perch or
pickerel; or perhaps wandering as in
a dream among fair ocean caves
abloom with brilliant tsea-anemones,a and
embowered with mimic groves of
branching corals and all manner of
softly swaying sea weed-graceful
crimson laminaria reaching to the sur
face of the water, responding in SER
pentine grace to the soft invasion
of waving fin. Rare living gems of
fishes, very butterflies of the deep,
float past flashing in iridescence With
every subtitle turn of their painted
bodies. Star-fsh, at first apparently
stationary, as though in midwater,
glide across the Elusive plane of glass,
with their thousand fringy disks OF
feet. Strange crabs and mollusks and
bivalves sport on the pebbly bottoms,
and portentous monsters, with great
gaping mouths, threaten us as they
emerge from their nebulous obscurity
and steal to within few inches of our
faces. s.-Scribner.

1.-THE President of life insurance
company has recently made public
some interesting facts concerning sui
eide. 1t said that in 1877, of tho peo-
pie whose lives were insured, 1.28 per
cent. died by their own hands. Since
then the life insurance companies have
practically discontinued the policy of
refusing to pay in case of suicide, and
the result is that the ratio of suicides
TO the insured population has increased
alarmingly. The President whose
statements we have quoted says: cit
is passing strange that men will delib-
erately contrive the means of their
own destruction in order to get the
best of life insurance company and
leave money to those who come after
fhem. Perhaps there is nothing very
strange in it, comments the Atlanta
Constitution. In this country there
are plenty of men who are afraid of
nothing in this world or in the next
The only good thing about them is the
natural affection they feel for their
families. They belong to the utterly
hopeless and desperate class. They
see no chance of providing for the i'm
mediate wants of their loved ones un-
aess they insure their lives and step
out of the world. Free-thinking in
religion and our social conditions are
largely responsible for this state of
affairs. The life insurance companies
will have to change their regulations
when they find that very large per-
centage of their customers do not con.
cider life worth living.

WThe annual loss of human life by
Eghtning shock is very great through
But the world. In European Russia,
hom 1885 to 1892, no less than 227O
Hersons were killed in this way. In
Mustria during the same time the
Electric fluid killed LOO persons. Ten
Thousand persons are reported as hav-
ing been struck by lightning during
the past twenty nine years, with 2252
deaths, in France, while in the United
States 202 deaths from lightning were
Recorded in 1892. The effects of light
Eing stroke are usually shock and
Coma and partial or complete loss OF
hight or hearing. The tissues are Otter

THE GOLDEN DOORWAY.

Restless man has travelled far,
Peace and home delight him not;
Ger strange ways his journeys are,
Shows and suns alright him not.
Ho the camel! Ho the sledgei
: Ho the bateau mid the sedge!
And the surly jog of the Esquimau dog along
the glaciers edgel
80 he voyages up and down
Sliding seas and deserts rude,
And takes the wind on his forehead brown
In all degrees of latitude.
Ho to the sources of the Nile!
Ho to some unknown Arctic isle
Where the grim ice pack shall lie at his back
for many frozen mile!
Distance doth he laugh to scorn
And the perils of the waste,
And the storms beneath the horn;
Death itself he hath outfaced.
Ho the simoomg Ho the shock
when on reefs tall vessels knock!
And the poisoned spear and the serpent near
and the avalanche from the rock!
He belts the continents with steel,
He pierces mountains through and
through,
On countless tracks the grinding wheel
Hurries him, thrusts him out OF view.
Ho the piston driving fast
Ho the race against the blast!
And the ceaseless fight III dark and light
that girdles the earth at last
See where shows the magic goal
OF all journeyings that are,
Bright like the noiseless gates that roll
Black for Phobus's golden car.
Ho the traveller, patient, bold! =.
Ho the doorway of crusted gold,
And the wonders therein by which men win
new world from the old
Still man rides on sea and shore,
Pressing forward, turning never.
Tells US now this golden door
His sharp unrest and long endeavor.
Ho the oar and rushing keel!
Ho the saddle! Ho the wheel!
And the lord of the rail, that doth not all In
his tireless frame of steel.

1t will be observed, says the Atlanta
Journal, from which the above table is
taken, that not mile of new railroad
has been built in Georgia this year,
though Georgia year before Last led
all the States of the Union in railroad
construction. The fact that Georgia
does not appear in the list printed
above is not to be regretted. There
has been no recent need for new rail
roads in this State, and money has been
SO tight that none of it has been found
ready to go into experimental enter
prises of this sort. A similar state of
affairs in the other States is the ex-
PLANTATION of the small new railway
mileage. Railroad building has been
overdone in many States, and it will
be long time before some OF the
lines that have been built in Georgia
during the last five or six years will
pay. The general falling off in rail
road construction is healthful sign.
In the first six months of last year
there were built in the United States
1867 miles of railway and the con-
struction for the year was 1900 miles.
The same ratio of increase for the last
six months of the year would give us
about 5000 miles of new railroad for
1893.

A Perfumed Lake.

On the Mangishlak Peninsula, in the
Caspian Sea, there are five small lakes.
One of them is covered with salt crys-
tails strong enough to allow man and
beast to cross the lake on foot; an
other is as round as any circle and q
lovely rose color. It's banks of salt
crystal form a setting, white as the
driven snow, to the water, which not
only shows all the colors from violet to
rosy red, but from which rises a per-
fume as of violets. Both the perfume
and the color are the result of the
presence of seaweeds, the violet and
the pink. Journal
