eccentricities is their favorite theme. A
new poet, however, has risenCy War
man, of Donver--and he is evidently
struggling TO express somewhat of tho
emotions reused in him by Colorado's
sublime views. His recently issued
"NIountain Melodies" contains some fine
touches, in which, however, tho sublime
occasionally yields very suddenly to tho
commonplace. as ia this. for instance:
want to 10 where tho flowers blow
On the mountains high and hoary;
Where the summer winds shalSe the pa-
tiont pines
And the sun in It's glory
Fals DER the stream where tho rippioa

Where the shoros arc shoal and sandy
Iwant TO walk where the flowers talk
On the banks OF the Rio Grande,
lovo the stills IN the running rills--
Tho willowy rills hair hidden
That lie In the lap Of the gentle hills--
In the lap Of tho hills unchidden
Ilove the loas whore the honey bees
Are making sweets from The clover,
And when l walk where the flowers talk
just feel good all over.

Many naval officer will doubtless re-
fleet as he stands watching the sport
from the bridge of his steel cruiser that
If it had not been for that fight he might
still be walking the deck of wooden
vessel which shot from guns now con-
sidered useless would easily sink if it
happened to strike just between wind
and water. There will be salutes Of all
descriptions at Hampton Roads, and the
foreigners will be entertained appropri-
ately by the officers of the American ma
Wy. Countless receptions have already
been planned in the cities near by, and
many of them will probably materialize.
If the present plans be not changed,
when the great feet sails for New York
April "a it will probably proceed in
squadron order under Roadway of n
knots. On the journey north there may
be some evolutions by the representa-
tives of the different countries. The
ships are expected to anchor in Sandy
Hook bay. On the morning of the re-
view, upon receiving the signal, the for.
eigners will take the positions assigned
them by Admiral. Gherardi, but it has
been decided that they will keep the.
starboard side of the channel, the Amer
leans escorting them on the port side.
The procession will then move forward
in double column at uniform speed
of u knots, with reserve speed of three
knots to guard against emergencies.

will proceed to New York, arriving on
the Goth. The big review will occur
the next day. On the 2eth Admiral
GherarG will give an elaborate dinner
to the foreign officers and other distin-
guished guests, most of whom will leave
under escort the same evening for Chi
cago, arriving there in ample time to
take part in the opening ceremonies of
the Worlds fair.
!, The estimates as to the number of YES
sells which will form the magnificent ma
rine picture in the review vary, some
putting it as low as so, while others de-
clare that there will be rs of the best
specimens Of naval architecture extant.

When the line reaches the Narrows,
both Forts Wadsworth and Hamilton will
salute with every available gun, and as
each vessel arrives opposite the fortresses
it will probably deliver rafting broad
side first in the direction of Hamilton
and then toward Wadsworth. It will
be novel sight, and hundreds of thou
sands of persons will doubtless see the
sinister tongues of fame leap from the
ships sides and hear the fearful report
that follows. The three caravels made
in exact imitation of Columbus vessels
the Santa Maria, Pinta and Nina-wiH
also participate in the review. They will
be regarded with great curiosity.
Comparisons have very naturally been
made between the coming review and
the two great naval displays given in
honor of Queen Victoria and Emperor
William in 1886 and 1890 respectively.
The former was the queens jubilee, and
the latter was rendered as compliment
to William on the occasion of his visit
to Portsmouth, England. If there is no
petering out, the New York review will
eclipse both of them and ought to be as
imposing as the two combined.
It has been decided to entertain the
foreign visitors deliberately in New York
upon their return from the World s. fair,
but the plans have not yet been perfect
ed. Everything, however, will probably
be in charge of the chamber of COM
merce of that city. This is the best sort
of a guarantee that the receptions and
other forms of entertainment rendered

tits estimated that 5000 sailors will
be required to man the American ships
which will be in the naval review, while
there will be about 10000 men on board
the foreign vessels. The total value of
all the craft will probably exceed $780,
100000. Thus it is no exaggeration to
say that compared with the matchless
array of battleships that will parade in
New York harbor the navies of the
worlds infancy were the merest toys"
or ''the Persian ships that gathered by
thousands at Salamis, and the Roman
and Egyptian galleys that darkened the
Mediterranean off Actium were relative
ly but insignificant chips on the surface
of the sea-" The vast wooden fleets of
England, France and Spain which seemed
invincible little more than 100 years ago
positively excite amusement by compar-
ison with the proposed aggregation of
vessels in New York harbor.
During the week devoted to the rem
devious in Hampton Roads it is pro-
posed to give an exhibition Of more than
ordinary interest because Of the histor-
ical associations connected with the
event which it is desired to commence
rate. This will consist of sham battle
between old fashioned ironclads Of the
types of the Merrimac and Monitor.
The mimic contest will occur on, the
very spot where the vessels really fought
on March 8, 1862.

val demonstration the world has ever
seen. This is of course ridiculous error,
for on many occasions since then there
have been gatherings of war vessels which
would have annihilated the misnamed
fssInvincible Armada in an hour.
! PROFESSIONALLY the most imposing
marine spectacle ever seen will be the
naval review in New York harbor, (which
will be a fitting prelude to the opening
bf the Worlds fair. Most of the great
powers will have their best ships at the
display, which will be in command of
Rear Admiral Gherardi of the United
States navy.
The great Spanish armada was made
up of IS galleons and large ships, 25 ur-
cas- of 800 to 700 tons burden, 10 tenders
of 70 to 100 tons, 13 small frigates, 4 gal
leoses and 4 galleys, in all 100 vessels,
with total tonnage of 75,86S tons.
This is less than one-third of the ton
mage which will participate in the great
naval review. One vessel of the new
United States navy, the Columbia or
the New York, could lie at anchor and
permit the entire armada to pepper
away at her for week without making
d return, and she would not be injured
at all. Any one of our rams could de-
stroy the entire armada without suffer-
ing any damage and without discharging
a single gun.
