The Roanoke times. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1890-1895, 1893-09-05
Ancient and Modern English Guns.

Nelson's ship, the Victory, was de-
signed to carry 104 guns, consisting of
81. "a and IL Founders, ranged on her
upper, main, middle and lower decks.
She was also armed with few 6S-pound-
er carrouates. The weight of her one
broadside of single shotted guns was
1.1Ol pounds, which was considered pro-
digious i'll those days. In the account of
the battle of Trafalgar, in which action
this ship played so prominent part. the
broadside that she poured into the
French Bucentaure is described as ter
rife, disnounting 20 of her adversary's
guns and killing and wounding no less
than 400 of her officers and men.
Compare this with our guns of the
present day, when single gun of the
Nile or Trafalgar throws proiectile
100 pounds heavier than the whole
broadside of the Victory, while one of
our 10l-ton guns discharges projectile
weighing no less than 1900 pounds! 1t
may be of interest to know that while
only 325 pounds of powder were ex-
pended i'll the discharge of broadside
from the Victory as much as 5000
pounds weight of powder is consumed
in firing the broadside of the Victoria or
the Sans Parcel, two of orr modern iron
clads!-Good Words.

Everyday Dresses Very Chcnp.

some elegant dresses at comparatively
small expense by purchasing two or three
handsome remnants of harmonizing col

serving for the length of the round skirt.

back of the skirt will make n small fig

up the back. A second remnant of
changeable, striped or dotted surah or
taffeta silk will make guimpe with full
sleeves or shirt waist. This should re-
peat the colors of the skirt or be in con-
trast with it. Velvet collar, cuffs and
skirt frills complete the dress. This is

Free lunch For Women.

The free lunch routes of the metropolis
are Varied in style and amplitude. They
have an army of patrons who drink to
eat and eat to drink. But these patrons
are males Up to very recently it has
not been thought worth while to induce
women to spend money by coaxing the
stomach and fattering them that they
are getting something for nothing. WHY
this has been so I'm sure don't know.
The latter idea certainly goes much
further with women than with men.
Very recently, however, some attempts
have been made to please the female
palate. The best shops have restaurants
for ladies, as everybody knows. But the
free lunch feature is a new one. Where
it has been introduced it works well.
In the house furnishing department of
a big store on Sixth avenue a lady can
get cup of splendid coffee, custard.
cake or brick of ice cream with every
purchase if she desires. And she can
even take some without buying and not
get fired out. There are coffeepots to
sell and cans Of coffee to be had but she
doesn't need to buy if she doesn't want
to do SO. You can go over to another
counter and buy 10-cent cake pan or
something of that kind, and a sweet
young barkeep-I beg pardon, saleslady
will give you n cake or two hot from
the oven. She makes and bakes right

Tho Problem of the Cradle.

Ever since the world began mothers
have been rocking cradles and singing
lullabies. From time imme1norial the
problems have existed What can we
do with this baby? Where can we put
it so that it will be safe? How can we
manage to secure a few intervals of
peace and tranquility? How can we still
its cries and whines? How can we teach
it to walk? In a word, how can we
emancipate ourselves from the absorbing
tyranny of these sweet babes, our off
spring?
The solutions which have been in
vented by the solicitude. the ingenuity
and the instinct of mothers have taken
the form of cradles, swaddles, leading
strings and gocarts. The variety of
these inventions is considerable, and a
description of them would form per-
haps, curious chapter in the history of
hygiene and domestic economy.-Har-

Sister Dorcas Is n Student.

at the Chicago university Wisconsin
woman goes by the name of Sister Dor
cas- because she abounded in good works.
She owns hammer. IL screwdriver, q
buttonhook, n can opener, etc, and is
always willing to lend them. Among
her other useful implements was a saw,
with which all the girls but one had
sawed off sections from the legs of their
cot beds, finding them inconveniently
high. The one exception had asked the
authorities for leave to do so and had
been refused. whereupon the other girls
promptly sawed off their cots without
saying anything to the authorities about
it.-Exchange.

women's Work I'm Enrl,,,,d.

London has Il society for promoting
the employment of women whose latest
report shows that go young women havo
through its influence begun to learn
some special branch of business or some
trade, while II have found permanent
engagements and 610 have been en-
ployed temporarily. half of this number
being engaged for writing and others
clerks. dressinakers, cooks and waitress
es. The general experience of the society
shows that women do not contemplate
earning living until want is close at
hand, and then they decide to become
nurses or lecturers at the very last mo-
ment. But for those who have never re-
ceived any technical training the city
allows the society Il sum of money for
training fees. Among the emplovments
which the society recommends are draw.
ing for the press and chrome photography.
There is II great demand for women who
are both shorthand and typewriters, but
the conditions require that they must
have Il thorough mastery of English
grammar and composition, and the ma
jority of girls have too little education
for the purpose.
The society has found more permanent
engagements for clerks and bookkeepers
than for any other employment. The
wages of the rank and file of women
employed in the industries which minis
ter to ordinary human needs are deplor-
ably bad, and the women are powerless
in their poverty. In the Leeds clothing
trade woman averages > shillings q
week. The hours are from il. IN. until
$3.50 p. m, and then it is sometimes nee
essary to take work home and sew until
midnight. Superior workers earn only
shillings and sometimes less. Report
shows the conditions of women's work
i'll many of the factories worse than the
wages. There are eXtortionato fines for
tritling faults and an almost inhuman
disregard of health cvinced in the rules
Onephilanthropic woman suggests trades
unionism as panacea for these evils
and cites case where men and women
weavers are united in Il strong union
and earn 20 per cent more wages than
their less well organized neighbors

Syrian Trousers In nnstnn.

Boston is in u state of mind over the
appearance on her streets of number Of
prominent ladies arrayed in u wide de-
parture from the conventional feminine
costume of the day. There are said to be
at leasta dozen advanced thinkers of the
female sex who have appeared in public
Ill the new costume which they have de-
termined to adopt. Mrs. B. o. Flower,
wife of the editor of The Arena, and
Miss Laura Lee, a prominent artist, have
been shopping in their Syrian trousers,
and they say that their unique attire has
caused them no other annoyance but to
be stared at. They like it and mean to
stick to it.-Boston Cor. San Francisco
