NEW LIFE SAVING BOAT.

To Take the Place OF n House Station.
Harbor on the Vessel.
Nne Of the NEST peculiar vessels ever
built in American waters is the Boston
bay floating life saving station, which
has just been completed at Noank,
Conn. There is nothing like her under
the heavens Tho mention of life saw
ing station suggests salt stained build
ing ON storm swept beach. with surf
patrols and lifeboats. The new craft,
however, is expected to prove cven
more useful than the surfmen, as she
will lie offshorc outside the line of
breakers, and her crew will have the
element Of danger from surf removed
from their work.
This station is the first of the kind
ever constructed. The boat is 100 feet
long, 33 feet wide and feet deep. She
is shaped much like an cid fashioned
hatiIon, cut off square Mt the stern.
1t is the "harbor" cut out Of the main
deck at the stern that makes tho boat q
curiosity. This opening cut into the
eNNAh ~ OO lNNN wv W hNs
1t is surrounded by walk feet wide,
upon which boats may be hauled. The
upper deck extends the whole length OF
the boat, covering over the top Of the
haI Dor as we'll.
AS the station" will continually lie
at her anchors and head to the wind, it
follows that the Cgress and ingress Of
gt,an 80 aud int tln haYhnr
will be conducted in a sheltered place,
and one Of the dangerous and disagree
able features which life saving crews
have hitherto had to put up with-the
launching of boats through the surf
will be obviated. In this harbor will be
moorcd two naphtha launches for the
use of the life savers, and a surfbOat
will hang OH davits near at hand.
As whole, the craft looks something
like a houseboat She is built i'll most
durable manner, with u view Cf resist
ing any storm with which she may have
to battle. She is heavily bulkhcaded,
and the main deck, which is ten feet
above the level of the sea, contains
abundant room for the crew of eight
men and captain who will man the YES
sci. On this deck is u large pilothouse
feet high, which will be used as a
lockout. There is abundant room for
the comfort of the crew.
The station is fitted with anchors, but
has no masts, machinery or steering
gear. She has been 90 days under con-
struction and is to be towod to Boston
at once, where she will be stationed in
Boston bay directly off City Point. Her
cost was 81, 900 exclusive of her fur
nishings, and she was designed by As
sistant Superintendent of Construction

THE NEW REVOLUTION.
John Russell Soung's Note OF Alarm I
the New York Herald.

John Russell Soung's Note OF Alarm In
the New York Herald.
When John Russell Young writes for
the New Yosk Herald, he knows he
must not take position contrary to tho
policy of the paper, which is controlled
'body and soul" by the money power.
He does, however, give warning to his
masters that the new revolution is like
that of 1860, and that the people of the
sountry are in alliance for better condi-
tons. Here is what he says about Can
didate Bryan:
"The campaign against Mr. Bryan
cannot be made upon personal lines,
nor will it succeed upon any theory of
belittling the candidate or his cause.
He is very young man to govern the
councils of a nation. Well. SO were
William Pitt and Bolingbroke and Lord
Randolph Churchill. Sheridan, Nc
Pherson and Stonewall jackson in the
civil war were young men. In nation
of young men it is dangerous to assail u
candidate because of his years. Youth
has its camaraderie and tendency to
tread on the heels of those who go be-
fore it unless they hustle out Of the
way. Nor must we resent the proposal
of Mr.. Bryan to stump the states.
Douglas did the same thing III that for
lorn, passionate campaign of 1860, when
he strove to stay the secession move
ment.
'Nor can canvass be made upon the
theory that Bryan has been cquivocal,
that he sometimes wabbled in his De-
mocracy, and that he has wanted to in
wade Populist and other watermelon
patches. Republicans have pardoned
too much wabbling among their own
leaders to catechise their opponents.
Nor can Bryan be criticised because of
a want of head. He has probably us
much head as nine-tenths of the candi-
dates who have ever run for the posi-
ton. And if there be in his speeches n
tendency toward foam and fustian, re-
member that they swayed a vast and
remarkable body Of men. Speeches must
not be valued because of their impress
sion upon the student i'll his closet, but
from their effect upon throng. never
could see much i'll the way Of cogent.
mind convincing oratory in Patrick
Henry's defamation about Liberty or
death, yet it prccipitated a revolution.
II am writing this because there
could be no gravor mistake than for Re-
publicans to undcIvalue the Democratic
campaign or Lclittle the candidate.

Modern Noah In the Black Fills.

At the mouth Of Whitehall gulch, in
the Black nils of South Dakota, Il man
so years old is building an ark the pur-
pose of which he refuses to state further
than that he expects to float it. The di-
mansions are 40 feet long, 10 feet wide
and feet deep. As there has never
been known to be water in that section
to float the strange craft, there is IA
great deal of speculation as to its pur-
pose. From the action and remarks Of
the old man it is thought he is looking
for a second deluge and intends to be
prepared for it. His ark is a great curl
osity TO the residents Of that section. -

California TO goS In 1859 its electoral vote
was given TO Cleveland by 144 plurality.
The combined Democratic and Populist
vote was 25, 1876 over the Republicans. In
1894 the DeIlocratic governor was elected
by l POO plurality and the Democratic and
Populist votes combined had a plurality of
81, $40 over the Republicans 1t Is a sig.
niflcant fact that much dissatisfaction pre-
vailed, and while the Democratic governor
was elected the other state officers went to
the Republicans.
Delaware has gone Democratic seven
times since 1876 and Republican once.
Illinois, Indiana, Iowa and Michigan
have in them some Democratic disaffection.
Judgment, based ON ascertained facts,
would be justified In placing Illinois, In
diana and Wisconsin in the Bryan column.
There Is certainly good ground for believ-
ing they will maintain their combined
Democratic and Populist pluralities under
the impetus of union and the promise of
victory.
The rest Of the unplaced states are Oh
the crest of the great western tidal wave of
the free silyet movement and are believed
to be prepared to sweep away all opposition
to Bryan. Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska,
North and South Dakota, Oregon, Wash
ington and West Virginia are all counted
on to give the Chicago candidate their cleo
toral votes.
They are placed in the Democratic col
umn for good and convincing reasons.
Minnesota, because the Democratic and
Populist vote of 1899, with both those
parties inharmonious and dissatisfied, was
7,4l0 larger Than the Republican vote.
Montana, because without the prestige
of union and free silver coinage the Dem
ocratic and Populist vote combined was
o,064 larger than the Republican vote In
1892 for president, 2, 4S0 larger In the con.
gressional election of 1894 and /, 1867 larger
In the last election for governor.
Nebraska, because the combined vote
was 30, $50 larger than the Republican
ernor and 1854 larger last year on su.
preme court judge.
North Dakota, because fusion without
the prestige Of a solid union defeated the
Republicans for governor in 1892 by l, 729
plurality.
South Dakota, because the Democrats
and Populists together had plurality
over the Republicans in 1899 under ad-
verse circumstances that kept Democrats
from the polls and reduced their vote more
than 80 per cent.
Washington, because IL has shown large
Democratic and Populist pluralities over
the Republicans In 1892 and all subsequent
elections.
West Virginia, because its straight
Democrats gave Cleveland n plurality, be-
cause all its state officers and Judiciary are
Democratic and because in eight elections
only one has been Republican in its result

The two daring navigators who left
New York June in Cucklcshcll boat
Is feet long, to cross the Atlantic, are
all right. In their frail little craft they
were sighted on July 10, in latitude
90. 30, longitude 81. %, by the American
liner Indiana, Captain Thompson, and
asked to be reported. The darlng mari
Ders appeared to be in the best of spirits
and required no assistance whatever
from the Indiana, although provisions
and water were offered them. The sight
of so small boat in midOccan was rare,
and at first the officers of the Indiana
thought it was some shipwrcck crew
that had taken to the lifeboat. Captain
Thompson said yesterday that the posi-
ton in which he passed the Sosodont
was about SIi miles from Fastnct. Both
men were pCrchcd in the stem sheets Of
the boat and were clad in oilskin suits,
as the spray was coming directly over
them. They expected to reach channel
port some time carly in August should
the weather remain favorable.
The craft on which these mon are
making the pcrilous trip is of their own
design and u very broad, but draws
not more than three inches of water.
They had, when leaving New York, 60
days provisions. The water is carried
in four tanks, two forward and two aft,
and the provisions, principally canned
goods, are stored in water tight COM
partments. Captain Thompson of the
Indiana took great pains TO telegraph
the information to New York, where
the families Of the daring mariners will
learn Of their safety.

1t should be noted that while the Re-

money" the organs and representatives
of the tariff barons are persistently
claiming that the tariff is an issue, says
the st. Louis Republic. Boss Hanna de-
clares that the workingmen are not
bothering about the money question.
but want a protective tariff.
The trick Of the syndicate interests in
control of the Republican party in put
ting Mckinley on gold platform il
emphasized by this insistence that the
tariff is an issue in the face Of the claim
that the financial question is the over
shadowing issue.
These shrewd political jobbers know
that il would be fatal to make McKin-
leyism the issue of the campaign aud
that it is dangerous TO keep il too prom
inently before the people. but they are
quietly laying the foundation for the
claim, should the Republican campaign
be successful, that the people demand q
return TO Mokinleyian.
BY blending the gold standard with
McKinleyism the Mckinley syndicate
hopes to gain votes which would Ger
tainly be cast against its candidate. Bui
In the event Of McKinley's election they
will be counted for McKinleyisn. Tho
result will be hailed as triumph OF
