Grin and tho Weather.

+. b. Dunn, of New York city, has
been comparing and charting the
returns OF the grip epidemic to as.
certain what, II any, relation exists
between the prevalence OF certain
types of weather and the prevalence
OF grip. His conclusion Is that the
weather Is an important factor In the
mortality Of grip cases and that the
humidity OF the mir seems to be the
important element in producing or
aggravating the disease" He says :
1.-THE fatality is most marked
when the humidity Is at its maximu n,
and there is a sudden fall OF temper.
allure. The higher tho hu.
midity and the more sudden the
fall OF temperature the greater the
number OF deaths, and 1t Is also OBJ.
served that when the temperature
and humidity drop ut the same time
there is sudden decrease OF the
death rate"
The microbian origin OF infuenza
is now thoroughly es, sbllshed BY the
researches OF Pfeiffer, OF Berlin, and
many other psychologists, as Kit.
asato, Canon, Cornil and Letzerich.
But, Notwithstanding the fact that
the disease Is always directly caused
by the distinctive germ or influenza
bacillus, the susceptibility OF per
sons to the attacks Of these microbes
may doubtless be greatly increased
by certain changes of weather.

PEERLESS INDIANA.
HER SUPERIORITY OVER ENG.
LANDS LATEST eATTlCSh,P.
With a,e7s Tons less Displacement,
the Indiana Has the Same Speed,
The Same Coal Carrying Capacity
and Heavier Guns Than the Brit.
ian 9atSi eshjo.

Since December 10. when the new
first class battleship, Magnificent. OF
the British navy. was launched ut
Chatham dock yard, the experts on
ship building Of all countries have
devoted good deal OF time in COM
menting upon and criticising the
new vessel.
They have almost without excep-
ton used the French ship Sardegna
and the American battleship Indiana
as their standards of comparison.
Even the English constructors who
have spoken of the Magnificent have
agreed that the enthusiastic English
constructor who stated that the
Magnificent was the NEST powerful
vessel ailoat, was wrong, and almost
without exception they point to the
Indiana, now building by Messrs.
Cramp, of Philadelphia, as one supe.
rior to the Magnificent.
The Indiana is not yet ahoat, but
before summer she will be flying her
commission pennant, and some
American naval officers say that she
will be worthy OF the title that the
Englishmen bestowed on the Mag.
niticent-that is, the most powerful
vessel ahoat.

Death Of q Famous Lion.

A familiar figure has disappeared
from the geological gardens. On
Saturday morning the lion known as
Duke breathed his last. Though
he had lived for nineteen years In
Regents park, whittier he had been
brought as a mere cub, lie was never
such favorite as the elephants and
camels who daily lear the loads Of
juvenile riders patieatly. IL not with
entire acquiesccnce. Still, he was
an eminent and-from distance
highly respected character. lie had
been photographed and sketched and
painted times out of number, and
had even enjoyed what great many
portraits do not obtain-the dis.
tinction of being hung on the line in
the annual exhibition of the Royal
academy. He was not exactly an
aminblc celebrity. lie and his
brother, who died two years ago,
were brought from the Nubian desert
In 1875, when the pair were about
twelve months old. At that date he
could have remembered almost
nothing Of his native haunts, and all
his lifetime he has seen little save
crowds OF spectators. Still, to the
last he exhibited little affection for
any one except his old keeper, and,
unlike lions generally-many OF
which breed in captivity-he dis
played no inclination to forsake o
bachelor life.

II requires three minutes under
battle conditions to fire one round
from q IL or ID inch gun and the
ships would be just equal on this
point, but in three minutes the
American could throw 1876 pounds
either ahead or astern and tho
English ship could only throw 1, 404
pounds.
Firing abeam as fast as possible
with all available guns, the Indiana
could throw IL, SIS pounds. while the
Magnificent's score would be but
S,44O pounds.
As regards armor. tho thickest
part OF the Magnificents is 4inches,
and the Indiana has Is inches Of
Harveyized steel at her thickest part.
The steel used in both navies is
practically the same, and II there Is
any preference 1t must rest with the
American product. for the Harvey
nickeling process Is an American in
yention and has been longer in use
on this side OF the water.
A fact which should. in the opinion
of steel experts, prove conclusively
that American steel Is the best in the
world is that the Russian govern
ment, after causing an examination
to be made OF the steel plants OF all
European countries, awarded its
contract for ship armor to the iron
and steel works in Bethlehem, Pa.
With all OF the Magniticent's forty
four guns trained seward and fired
simultaneously she would throw q
weight OF metal the total OF which
would be lees pounds, while the In
diana under like conditions would
throw 5, 920 pounds, or 1925 pounds
more than the English ship.
Speed is still a matter OF conject
ure, but both vessels are designed
for II Ia knots, but neither one has
yet demonstrated that she will fulfil
the requirements in that direction
II precedent counts for anything
though, the Indiana will live up t.
them, for every ship built by CramT
x Sons has exceeded the contract
ed speed by at least q quarter OF
knot.
Some constructors regard 1t as yer.
remarkable that the Indiana, whicl
has 1879 tons less displacement thar
the Magnificent, should have ar
equal coaling capacity and heavier
battery and yet make the SAM
spssd, but this 10 due largely to tn
lichtnsss OF the machinery.

In an interview the other day the
commissioner OF internal revenue
said that practically every dollar OF
tax on Kentucky whisky was col.
lected, and with less expense than
any other revenue due the federal
government The commissioner is,
OF course, correct, but this has not
been the popular opinion The
moonshner, says tho Louisville
ourier-Journal, has taken such u
prominent part in the literature Of
the day-in newspapers, magazines
and books-that his numbers have
been as much magniiied as those OF
that sorry set OF scoundrelS who at
tackled the brave Sir John FalstaN on
Gads hill, Ambitious dialect
writer's and n horde Of cheap humor-
lists have added their contribution to
the prevailing impression. Ambi.
tious revenue officers, aided and
abetted by Jealous reporters they
take into their confidence, break out
at irregular periods with stories OF
their prowess In raiding Illicit dis
tilleries and capturing blocdthirsty
revenue outlaws. Many are their
hairbreadth escapes and thrilling
are the battles in which they have
engaged.
These stories OF moonshlners and
moonshining are tho response to a
strong public demand, the appetite
for the romantic being especially
lively in connection with Il State
whose people are considered to have
such marked personal characteristics
as Kentuckians. But they must be
taken with a large amount OF salt.
We certainly have very few moon
sinners in Kentucky and they are
not numerous or bloodthirsty any
where. Usually they are poor peo-
pie who lack industry or pluck
enough to succeed in farming or
other vocations. Such men will not
fight IL they can help it and their
operations are generally on the
smallest sort Of q scale. Their num-
bers are equally Insignificant and out
Of all proportion to the space they
take up in the newspapers.

outlook for future prosperity and de.

the increasing output Of the gold

FLOWERS ron AN Aston.
Tho Order Which viii Keep q Florist
Busy for Year.

That order which William Waldorf
Astor gave Broadway florist for
cover of lilies Of the valley and violets
to be put over his wife $ grave. fresh
every day for year, was the large st
single order for flowers ever given in
New York. 1t means over 800 worth
of flowers for the grave every day.
It means the especial and laborious
forcing of lilies Of the valley during
the eight months that they do not
grow in nature. 1t means trip Of
the florist himself to the cemetery
every day, and man, especially hired
by Mr.. Astor, to see that the cover,
costly enough each day to make a
robe for the bed Of queen, is prop.
erly placed,
There was something very Monte
Cristo like about the way Mr.. Aston
dealt with the florist. The day before
the funeral he walked into the shop
and said: "How many orchids can
you get on twenty-four hours no.
tice?" The florist. not knowing to
whom he was talking, and wishing
to impress his caller with the vast
resources Of u Broadway florist. said
indifYerently :)"Oh, about five thou
sand"
Every we'll, )" said the caller, giving
his name. 'Get al you can and
have them ut Trinity in time for the
funeral. I want all you can get,
twice five thousand, II 1t Is pos.
siblc."
The florist bestirred himself,
bought every orchid he could hear
Of, but was only able to get $500.
This meant u bill for $500 for or.
chds alone. Dir. Aston was 50
pleased that he gave the S3S, 600 or.
der for the daily cover. His in.
structions were that this cover
should be removed every day, nc
matter what its condition was, and
that all the flowers in 1t should BIZ
destroyed. 1t takes about 4,OO(
lilies to make the cover and abou,
the same number Of violets. On tn,
upper end Of the cover, into til,
warp Of the lilies, is woven cross o
violets and from the foot of the covel
hangs a cross OF violets. On eacf
side are four points from which hans
tassels OF violets suspended by bows
Of satin ribbon.

UNITED STATS BArrrrsntp INDIANA.

As q matter Of fact a comparison
OF the respective merits OF the Mag
nificent and the Indiana appears un-
Just to the latter, for the Indiana
was designed and contracted for In
President Harrison's administration,
and the appropriation for the Mag.
nificent was not made by parliament
until 1898, and so the latter has
every reason to be and Is moro mod.
ern than her American rival.
Leaving aside, however, the i'm.
provements Of the last few years for
comfort Of officers and men and the
little details OF mechanism, and
viewing the Indiana and Magnificent
purely US engines Of war, the Indiana
Is, in the opinion Of ship builders,
the better vessel Of the two.
The Magnificent mounts four %
inch breechloading rifles, twelve .
inch rapid fire, sixteen IL pound
rapid fire and twelve 3 FOUNDER rapid
fire guns, or forty.four guns in all.
Out of this battery the Magnificent
can fire eight guns either ahead or
astern, and with these eight guns she
can throw l, $50 pounds OF metal.
Here the Indiana's superiority Is
demonstrated. Her battery consists
OF four l3 inch brcechloading rifles.
eight s inch breechloading rifles,
four 6 inch, twenty FOUNDER rapid
fire guns, making in all thirty six
guns, or eight less than the Mag
nificent.
With these, however, she can
throw 4,9Sl pounds Of metal either
ahead or astera, which is 3,32l
pounds more than the English battle
ship can throw.
In the matter OF firing abeam the
Indiana's superiority Is demonstrated
by the fact that with twenty.foul
guns the Magnificent throws but g.
575 pounds; the American ship
with four guns less, throws 500
pounds, or 2,095 pounds moro thar
the Enylishman' pride.
