RETURN FROM EUROPE.

It was the night before we sighted land,
And silently the brilliant sun went down.
The broad Atlantic touched by magic
hand
Sent up glow as from some jewelled
crown.
From out the eastern waves the pale
moon rose,
AS if to lure anew the travellers eye
Back from that cherished spot Of sweet
repose,
The Western Hemisphere close drawing
nigh.
Long upon deck I stood that tranquil
night.
Watching the ships smooth cut along the
waves.
Turning from dams silver, shimmering
light
To where the distant, crimson water
laves
The banks Of home. What holy memories
Sweeping out thoughts of great. imperial
Rome.
Her Caesars palace. and the scene Of
those,
Her gladiatorial fights, and Peters dome.
Sweeping aside those pictures vague yet
clear
Of Paris. one vast. sad, historic spot
Napoleon's tomb, imperial as dear
Her Strasburg statue yelled to hide its
blot:
Drowning the hum Of London busy still
Within the weary brain, her noisy ways
Haunted by Dickens tread, her Abbey's
thrill
OF august presences and ancient days:
Cologne's cathedral. that grand prayer
in stone.
Venice amid her liquid thoroughfares.
From Riggs dizzy height, from swift
blue Rhone
turned, and to my lips came unawares:
America. my country, who would prove
The patriotic impulse in his breast
Needs but to feel the mighty ocean move
Roundless between him and his hearts
true rest. -a.su,>a

20 lovely as-no matter where he roam

A Bulwark Against Mosquitoes

Speaking Of feet makes me think OF
the amazing ingenuity of girl know.
We were all sitting on the veranda Of
house In Tacoma the other night, and IL
was a night when the mosquitoes were
out in full force. All the women were
wearing low shoes, and by the way they
twitched and wriggled you could tell
whenever a mosquito got in telling
blow. The ingenious girl alone Of all the
party was plainly not troubled. At
length I asked her how she managed 1t.
Its very simple" said she. II simply

my stockings"

The use Of solid shot In warfare has
been given up practically. The projec-
tile Of to-day is a conical shell Of steel,
hollow and sometimes loaded with pow
DER so as to explode on striking or by
time-fuse. 1t is wonderfully different
from the shell Of twenty-five years ago.
In those days one could watch the pro-
jectile as 1t sailed through the air I'm q

There was even time to get out Of the

but the new style of shell moves at the
rate of a little over half a mile Sec

ergy being transformed instantaneous

dead without sign of a wound. Where
as an old-styled shell would burst into a

into myriad Of small fragments, each
of them moving with tremendous veloc-
ity. 1t may easily be imagined that
half dozen ix-pound Hotchkiss shells
finding their way into a vessel would
scatter death and destruction in every
direction. Protective armor, owing to
its great weight, can be placed only over
the ships vitals-that is to say, along
the middle part of the hull near the
water line. so as to cover the machin-
cry. In future naval battles gunners will
direct their fire against the unarmored

ANOTHER SPANISH wARsHIP LOST.

Havana. Oct N-Another Spanish
warship has been lost. The cruiser
Cristocal Colon has been wrecked near
Cape Antonio and. it is believed, will
prove total loss.
The Cristobal Colon il second class

The disaster occurred off Colorado

the town of Mantua, in the province Of
Pinar del Rio. near Havana.
The Christobal Colon appears to have
encountered the severe weather off
Cape Antinio, and to have put into the

she tried to ride out the fierce gale ind
