Loweurs Advice to Young Men.

He had enjoyed heartily his own fre- quent reading of the works of the great authors he wrote about, and he was able to convey some of this enjoy ment to his own readers, and to ex- plain to them the reasons for his lil- ing. His favorite of all was the mighty Florentine poet, Dante, whom Lowell steadily studied from early life. h. deed, the advice he gave to young men seeking culture was to find the great writer whom they most appreciated, and to give themselves to the constant perusal of this great writer, growing up to him slowly, and discovering gradually that to understand him ade- quately would force them sooner or later to learn many of the things best worth learning. .-Brander Matthews in St. Nicholas.

A MINIATURE SEA.
An Artificial Lake with Waves Like the
 Ocean.

An Artificial Lake with Waves Like the Ocean.
 Out in southwestern Utah there is an irrigating reservoir covering so large an area in the open sandy desert that the wind has sweep sufficient to raise waves five or six feet high. About eight miles of the border of this reser- voir is an artificial bank, and unless a method of keeping the waves off this bank were adopted the owners of the property would some day find that most of the stored water had escaped through crevasse.
 To provide the necessary protection an inexpensive breakwater was con- structed, which was recently described by w. F. Hardesty in an article on the Swan Lake works, of which the reser- voir is part. The inside slope of the banks is one foot rise in horizontal distance of five feet. and the face is protected by cobble stone in some places and by willows in others, the latter giving the best results. They were obtain ed early in the spring and fall, when they will sprout. A square trench is made in the bank down to the high-water mark, and the butts of the willows laid in it. Dirt is then thrown over the butts and rocks laid over the projecting ends. This has been found to make fair temporary protection, ana the cuttings begin to grow immediately, reaching height of or feet during the first year. This protects the bank from ordinary waves, but to keep the unusually high ones from it, which are pretty sure to cause damage, floating breakwater is employed. This was constructed by first driving line of piles into the reservoir about 15 feet from the toe of the bank. They were driven from 20 to 25 feet apart, and row of cedar logs about twelve inches in diamete was strung along on top of the water be- tween them. The ends of the logs are fastened together with chains. and the logs are fastened to the piles in such a way that they rise and fall with the waves.
 This boom has been found to break the force of the waves quite effectual- ly. The fastenings to the piles are sometimes broken loose in storms, and to protect the bank in such cases simple plan has been adopted. A wire about the size of telegraph wire is strung at intervals from the piles to the bank. A loop or rider, of wire is then passed over the first line and fastened firmly to one of the logs in the boom. In case the log breaks loose it is guided by the wires straight to the shore and still offers some pro- lection to the bank. = Philadelphia Record.

UGLY.

An ugly little artist had an ugly little dream Of an ugly little world built on an ugly little
 scheme: He took up his little pencil and incontinently
 tried To make ugly little pictures of that world SO
 uglifed He drew ugly little figures just like evil little
 imps. With ugly little bodies of the hue of parboiled
 shrimps, With ugly little faces of a subterhuman sort, Eaeh dark Gehenna phantom or unnatural
 Stygian sport" He limned ugly little mannikins as pale as tal-
 low dips, And ugly unsexed women with protuberant
 under lips, With ugly scarlet tresses, or with sable DOT
 ter's knots, And with noses like a satyrs, and with eyes
 like inky blots b' -aubed ugly little backgrounds, all as
 meaningless as mud, And ugly little sunsets all suggesting fire and
 blood: And ugly little arabesques which little seemed
 to mean, Yet were commonly suggestive of the cruel
 and unclean. Then that ugly little artist kicked up ugly
 little heels, And indulged in grim grImaces and in grew
 some little squeals, And he cried: "Hooray On Loveliness shall
 man no longer feast, l have proved that Arts true subject is not
 Beauty but-the Beasti"

tines rudder. Before it could be
cleared the vessels steering gear
was considerably damaged.

POSITIVE DENIALS.
Work Done for the Navy at Mare
Island is Not Defective.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-It is pos
itively denied at the Navy Depart
ment that any report had been
received from Admiral Beardslee,
commanding the Pacific Station
and now at Honolulu, condemning
the character OF the work at the
Mare Island Navy Yard, or that
Secretary Herbert has ordered an
investigation of affairs at the navy
yard. 1t is also said that, so far as
the Department is informed the
work done in that yard is fully up
to the standard elsewhere. Touch
ing the report that the Philadel-
phia's starboard engines broke
down on the trip to Honolulu, the
Secretary himself has stated that
Admiral Beardslee's report made
no report of any such mishap, but
attributed the delay in the passage
mainly to inferior coal.
AS for the Boston, which is also
cited as an example of bad work,
it is said the vessel has been lying

months out of commission, although
ready for service and in good order.
She simply lacks men to make up
a crew.
The Bennington is being held at
Acapulco, according to Admiral
Ramsay, Chief of the Navigation
Bureau, not because she is not in
perfect order, but because this is a
convenient port at which vessel
may be ordered at short notice to
proceed either to South or Central
America, or to cross the Pacific.
AS for the Yorktown, which is said
to be suffering from leaky boiler
tubes, it is said that this is proba-
bly, true, but it is not in any sense
a reflection on the character of the
Mare Island work. that the tubes
should leak after the vessel crossed
the Pacific and had been in hard
service on foreign coasts.

SEVEN LIVES LOST

And Several Other Persons Badly Burned or Injared Fly Fire on Board the steam CT Iona, On the Trip From Leith to London-The Victims So BadIy Charred ss to be Unrecognixsble-FireS Started In the Lamp Room.
 LONDON, Sept. 17.-The London .S Edinburgh Steamship Co.'s steamer Iona, plying between Leith and Lon don, caught fire on her trip to Graves end. The fire started in her cabin. and five women and one child, passengers, and the stewardess were burned to death, and number of others were badly burned and otherwise injured. The fire was extinguished by the use of the ship fire apparatus.
 The following particulars of the dis asters are furnished by the manager of the London and Edinburg Steam ship Co.,, who, in an interview, made this statement:
 The steamer Iona left Leith Satur- day evening at ' o'clock, with 100 sa- loon passengers and fifty second-class passengers. The part of the boat in which the second-class passengers slept was used as a saloon during the day,
 
 partition into sleeping compartments for women and men. At o'clock this Monday morning fire was discovered in the ladies compartment on the port side. The flames spread so rapidly and the clouds of smoke were so stifling that the crew were prevented from rescuing all of the passengers. being several times driven away from the burning part of the ship. The fire was gotten under control about 4 o'clock when the charred bodies of seven persons were found in their berths, so badly burned as to be un- recognizable.
 The cabin, on the starboard side of the ship was only slightly injured, the spread of flames to that side being checked by the protecting steel deck. During the progress of the flames the widest excitement prevailed among the passengers. The saloon passen- gers, men, women and children rushed on deck some of them almost naked, the women screaming and the children crying, and it was not until the flames were subdued that they could be paci- fed.
 The Iona is lying in dock at Wap- ping, and was inspected by repre- sentative of the United Press The ladies' cabin was completely demol- ished. Some of the killed appeared to have fallen from their berths in their efforts to escape, and their bodies were found lying almost in ashes on the floor. The fire originated in the lamp room, which ad joined the cabin
