MACHINERY OF A BATTLESHIP.
Marvellous Complication Over Which One
Ma Rresid0e.

Marvellous Cen yiiostloa Over Which One
Haa Presidss.
In order to gain some idea of the
complicated mechanism over which the
engineers must exercise ceaseless
watchfulness, guided by intimate
knowledge, one should descend to the
depths where the vital parts Of bat
tleship are in motion at time when
steam is up for msneuvering speed.
That means little more than half the
rate she is capable of being driven at,
but it is enough for man unaccus-
toned to such situations In spite of
all attempts at ventilation, the heat
down there seems sitting at first by
contrast with the pleasant breeze on
deck, and the swift movements of
wheels, cranks and piston-rods are
bewildering. Even when all this ma
from an attempt to count its many
parts. The valves alone and the means of
controlling them would battle enumer-
ton, and only vague impression of
tangled network remains on ones
mind as the result of prolonged con-
temptation. The bewilderment is in
creased when all these complicated
parts are revolving or gliding to and
fro like shuttles in a weaver's loom, SO
rapidly that the eye can not follow
their movement How it is possible for
anybody to localize a mishap that oc-
ours in the midst of so much whirl is
mystery to the uninitiated, and not
easily explained even by the engineers
themselves. They have to be guided
mostly by sound, occasionally by sight,
and sometimes by smell. Every piece
of machinery connected with the mo-
tive power has to be duplicated for YES
sells propelled by twin screws, as all
our effective battle-ships, fast cruisers
and improved torpedo-gun boats are.
The port and starboard engines act
independently, but 80 uniform are
their revolutions that there Is seldom
more than PRACTICAL difference be-
tween the two sets-a difference that
could only just be measured on the
ffty-one-inch stroke of piston-rod.
How enormous is the force exercised
when standing where the throbs of
propeller, dS III De4te Tue wafer, Iudy
be distinctly felt This is near the ves'
sells stern-post. A few yards from it
the vibrations become attenuated to a
thrill The great shaft, turning at
q rate of nearly one hundred revolu.
tions every minute, works with abso-
lutely noiseless energy, and its move
ment is SO rapid as to be perceptible
only because of the ripple of light that
WAIVERS along it, reflected from the
electric lights that glow night and day
in this part of the ship when the en-
igines are in motion. A similar alb
sepce of all sounds that might indicate
friction is characteristic of every
part of the motive power in battle
ship. Words of command can be heard
throughout the engine-room, though
uttered little louder than an ordinary
conversational tone. Were 1t other
wise, the engineer on duty would be
harassed by intolersble anxiety lest he
should miss some urgent summons
sent to him through electric wire or
voice-tube from the executive officer
on the bridge, who is responsible for
the ships safety.-London News.

From tbs Reporter. Somerset. Ky.1
Among the foot hills OF the Cumberland
Mountains, near the town of Flat Rock Is
the happy home Of James McPherron.
Four months ago the daughter of the fam.
lily, a happy girl Of sixteen, was stricken
with st. Vitus' dance. The leading physi-
clans were consulted but without avail. She
grew pale and thin under the terrible nerv-
Gus strain and was fast losing her mental
powers. In fact the thought Of placing her
in an asylum was seriously considered. Her
case has been so widely talked about that
the report of her cure was Ike undermining
a miracle OF old. To q reporter who visited
the home the mother said:
ayes, the reports Of my daughters sick.
ness and cure are true as you hear them.
Her affection grew into st. Vitus' dance
from an aggravated form Of weakness and
nervous trouble peculiar to her sex. Every
source Of help was followed to the end, but
it seemed that physicians and medicine were
powerless. Day by day she grew worse I'M.
til we despaired of her life. At times she al
most went into commissions. She got 80 that
we had to watch her to keep her from wan
dering away and you can imagine the care
she was.
"About the time when our misery was
greatest and all hope had fed, I road Of
another case, almost similar, that had been
cured by a medicine known as Dr. Williams
Pink Pills. Almostin desperation I secured
some of the pills and from that day on the
wonderful work of restoration commenced
the nervousness left, her checks grew bright
with the color OF health, she gained flesh
and grew strong both mentally and physi
cally until to-day she is the very picture OF
good health and happiness.

terms of Pink Pills ~tosevery ailing person

her the green slip from a city florist.
II was just after the death Of her
mother, and he had said they would

was a custom the genial Judge, her
father, had taught her.
To-day the wide porch was a place
for lingering. The warm spring sun
shine made pickering tracings Of the
l~eafless vines upon the stained floor. A
straight marble walk led from the en-
trance to the steep village street. OPP

into a narrow valley, filled with streets
of pleasant homes that ran up the

taking in all the promise of the sweet
spring day and longing, to speak com
