EFo"f FHHlVftF0fV'
On Friday last there was a preliminary trial
three sister vessels which have been built by
the order Of the AdmiraItyN@oo feet long. 10
feet wide, and IA feet deep. The vessel is twin
screw. and the engines are of the threc,staGe
compound type. having, cylinders 10 inches in
diameter and % inches in diameter for the high
and Intermediate pressure cylinders respective
ly, while there are two low-pressurec cylinders
TO each set OF engines, each of which is also
* inches In diameter; The boilers are OF the
those OF the Darling, which were fully Illustrated
and described l. In our issue OF Dec. /, 1898. 1t
there were two close walls of tubes forming the
exterior OF the furnace space or combustion
To- a spsoe. or uptoke' in The eentpe W III pIhs oilsT
between, the two furnaces. In the Ardent's
boilers the same outer rows Of adjacent tubes
are retained, but bent inward toward the fur
mace space Ii a row OF other tubes. which, how
ever. are not touching. each other, 50 that the
heated gases can pass between them 10 the walls
Of tubes at the back. In this way an addition
has been made to the heating surface, and,
the arrangement has resulted in more steam,
being generated, with a corresponding increase
in power developed by the engines.
The trial OF Friday last. as stated, was OF a pre-
liminary nature. the ofiicial trial. with all weights
on board being yet to be made. 1t will be re-
ing the preliminary trials OF the Daring. to get
runs az progressive speeds, and the same course
~ torowea WIN the ardent IN order TO get
OF these vessels. II will be remembered that the
Daring made 1.S0 knots at OIL revolutions, l4.2
knots at l75 revolutions, 1873 knots at 23S reyo-
lutiOns, 23.4 knots at 322 revolutions, and finally
1886 knots at 3S4.3 revolutions, the steam
pressure being 200 pounds, and the power Asa!
indicated horse power on the latter run. The
Daring's speed has been exceeded by the later
and longer vessel, but II has required an increase
of power for the purpose, the Ardent's engines
giving about 1000 horse power on the last pair
OF runs. The absence of vibration, which has
been so happy a characteristic of the later YES
sells OF this class, was also noticeable in the Ar
dent, while another Improvement was the very
small amount of flame TO be seen at the tops of
the ehimneys, even when running at highest
speed.

THE MAN or MODERATE MEANS.
He Take Not UnLiadIy TO Five-cent Cigars,
but MINI lie Could EasIIy 60 Back.

Il nnd.' said the man OF moderate means, "a
great difference in fve-cent cigars: some are
astonishingly good for the money, some are
pretty poor. ! have found some five-cent cigars
Of medium size that were not only a good, but a
lasting smoke; they appear to be well and solidly
made throughout. | have found some larger
cigars that didn't smoke as long as the medium
sized ones; these last as they were smoked grew
soft to the touch and could easily be compressed
between the fingers; the wrapper was good, but
the filling was very loosely rolled. They were
In one respect not altogether unlike an air cush-
ion; there was not much inside of them.
II am surprised at the number of places In
Broadway where one can buy tve-cent cigars:
in fact, ! have found so far but one place in the
great street in which ten cents was the lowest
priced they had, and am forced to the conclu-
sion that there must be at this ~juncture a great
many men smoking economically.
There is a certain fascination about n five
cent cigar, but still ! feel that it is one from
which ! could easily break away; what ] mean
Is that | anticipate no difficulty, when the iinan-
cial cyclone shall have finally blown over. in
going back to cigars at ten. fifteen, twenty cents
each; in fact. | think that In ordinary weather |
should prefer a cigar at about twenty cents

added that the enemies OF home rule are anx-

Blake retiring. and said his (Blake'sl Intentions,

Washingt " 70. s.-If the plans OF
the Democrat. e Dlers of the senate do
not miscaIy, Ia senate will devote it.
self almost exclusively this week to
the consideration Of the Iarlm bill.
Their plan is to have the bill taken up
each day Immediately after the conclu-
sion OF routine morning business. which
means that they desire to absorb as
much Of the morning hour, which usu-
ally lasts until 2 o'clock, as possible,
and cut out the discussion of miscel-
laneous subjects. many Of which are
introduced = hen question like the
tariff bill is under discussion for the
purpose Of obtaining delay. They ray
not succeed in getting such an otder
as this, but the announcement Of the
purpose Of making an effort in that di-
rection Is an indication Of this inten-
ton Of crowding the debate along as
rapidly as possibly can be done. The
Democratic members of tho finance
committee win also probably under
take to extend the daily sessions until
6 o'clock. which will NEST likely be
resisted by the Republicans.
Great interest is felt in Senator Hin's
speech, which is announced for tomor-
row. 1t is known from former utter
ances that he is opposed to the income
tax. and that while the bill was in
committee he sought to have many
changes made in the schedules and
objected to the wholesale adoption of
the ad valorem system-that indeed,
at that time the bill as a whole found
very little favor in his eyes. 1t is not
believed that he has changed his mind,
but he has been very reticent on the
subject since the time of the three
days caucus Whether Mr.. Hin shall
speak tomorrow in accordance with his
announcement will depend upon sena-
tor PETER. Mr.. PETER has not con-
cluded the speech begun by him on
Thursday and he will have the floor to
proceed tomorrow If he insists upon
having It. It is considered, however,
that he will yield It and continue his
address later in the week. Senator
Lodge has announced a speech for
Tuesday, and may also conflict with
Senator PETER. The latter Is expected
to consume all Of one other day and
possibly two more days. Those three
speeches are the only ones positively
announced for the present week, but
there are other senators prepared to
take the door when the opening shall
occur.
Other questions which may receive
attention during the week are the Chi
nese treaty. the Russian thistle bill
ana the resolution providing for the
coinage of Mexican dollars in this
country.
