ELEMENTS OF NATIONAL.
DEFENSE.

The late Venezuelan furry, and at
tendant war talk, has again called
attention to the weak condition of our
military and naval establishments, en-
phasizing the necessity of strengthen
ing our most vulnerable points of at
tack to meet the exigencies arising from
a possible resort to extreme measures,
and, as is usual in such cases, great
deal of nonsense has been indu1ged in
as to what the United States could and
could not do in an emergency. This
paper will deal with defensive elements
only, physical and moral, and the in
formation herein presented has been
cleaned from various sources, includ-
ing observation and experience.
The situation of the United States
being such as to preclude the possibil-
ity of foreign invasion, defensive
measures must, of necessity, be direct
ed on lines anticipative of an attack
by a naval force. Of the country's
vast sea-cOast, there are but four
points at which anything like sys-
tematic plan of defense has been at
tempted, namely, New York, Boston,
San Francisco and the entrance to the
Mississippi river below New Orleans.
New York, being of the greater i'm
pOrtance, has claimed the most atten-
ton from the government, and with
the works already constructed for its
protection it is safe to assert, despite
many weak -kneed views to the con
trary, that no fleet, even of the allied
European navies, could take the city
For purposes of defense, the harbor OF
New York and it's entrance has been
laid out into squares, and the squares
into sections, each square being in the
range of a mortar battery, and each
section within the province of par
ticular mortar. AS hostile ship en-
ters square, its position is accuratel.
known and the range previously deter
mined, each of the sixteen mortars
constituting battery, opens on it,
designated section, SO that no matte
where the ship may happen to be locat
ed in the square it must inevitably ge
hit with at least one projectile
mortar calibre being fifteen inch, AM
the shell being discharged high in tn
air, with the intention of landing OF
the enemy's deck, would doom to de
struction any ship afioat. Before try
ing conclusions with the mortars, tn
first duty of the enemy would be t

anchors of it's love, its country and its
country's traditions. And whatever
coalition the events Of the future may
form against them, it must weigh we'll
and weigh gravely the hazardous game
of war in which it embarks, for, in
it's undertaking, it must reckon
with a people who, in the defense of
home, honor and country or in support
of principle, know how to dare and
how to die. ID.

MEMORY.

Memory is that power of the mind
which enables us to recall and re-know
objects previously known or expert
enced. AS to how the past psychical
experiences are recalled we know little,
but we do know that memory is power
of the mysterious organ, the brain.
In some unexplained way the brain re-
cords the impressions received from
the outer world. AS a result power
is created, which may recall, not the
real objects of past recognition, but
the ideas of them. While we know so
little about the real nature of memory
l think it expedient for me to dwell
principally upon the pleasures and
pains of memory.
Its pleasures are many. How dear
are the recollections of youthful days,
the days when very little trouble, anxi-
ETY., discomfort, found place in the
human heart of mankind. With un-
told pleasure we can recall ideas of
mothers kind admonitions, fathers
wise advice, brothers hearty laugh and
sisters true affection. FOndly and
with deep devotion we can cherish
again the useful hours spent in the old
schoolhouse, where the seeds OF love,
kindness and thought were sown, and
in the spring of life, budded and bios
somed. Then it was when flowers
sprang up in our paths, birds OF happl-
ness and contentment were pouring
forth their sweetest strains, and in
the countenance shone beauty and
pleasure, contentment and peace, the
smile and the placid look of innocence.
So we may exult in memory's pleas
ures. While we do it's pains may strike
up in the heart pang which would
have power to shock the whole body,
resulting in a feeling of sorrow, not
hidden, but seen by every close OBJ
server. 1 can imagine that Napoleon,
when he dwelt upon the island of st.
Helena, looked with memory's keen
eve over the battlefields where the dy-
ing and wounded lay, took another
gaze at the scenes of carnage, thought
he saw the mothers made homeless and
the little, dimpled babies made father
less by his destructive hand, and as he
did so cannot doubt that he clasped
his hands in utter despair and sank
down, overloaded by the memories OF
his awful deeds. Many others very
like that Frenchman Napoleon travel
about this free and prosperous land.
Perhaps they do not recall ideas OF
murder, destruction and vice done in
war, but the ideas of unkindness. self
ishness and ill treatment of their fell
low man. So it is; memory may bring
pain or pleasure. One object of life IS
to so live and so improve both in body
and mind that we may have the
, sympathy and love of all. If we do,
memory's recollection will be bliss to
, every one.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

How weak and how blind are you mOrtals,
When darkness seems closing around.
Because you have failed in the measure,
And tOyed with the good that you found.
Because you have stumbled and fallen,
record made bad and unclean,
'TiS wrong that you halt by the wayside.
And sigh there-at what might have been.
Much greater the need for your efforts
To strive with your muscle and brain.
We know there is not man living,
Who cannot, at least, try again.
The world is not always hard-hearted
To crush down man when he falls.
But many hand of true friendship
Would welcome him here when he calls.
So fear not, because you are labOring
Meath bonds that have bound down your
pride;
The world reckons still, you're brother,
We send our deep love from outside.
And could it but soften the measure
Of pain to your heart-mOst sincere.
We'd willingly share of your burdens.
And tighten your silent career.
The world has grown wise in its SHINING,
No heart worth attention by you,
But stretches hand to brother
Who holds high purpose and true.

MONITOR MoNADNOCK.
Trial Trip OF Coast Defense
Vessel.


The coast defense vessel Monad-
mock, the keel of which was laid
at Mare Island Navy Yard twenty
one years ago, made her first APP
pearance in San Francisco harbor
yesterday morning, says the San
Francisco Chronicle of March 10.
She was on her trial run, having
been made ready for sea at the
Navy yard few days ago. She
hove in sight at the Brothers
shortly after 10 o'clock, and ran
up the harbor as far as Broadway
wharf, when, with graceful
swing, she stood back on her
course as far as San Quentin. She
swung around several times, ap-
parently for compass corrections,
and then headed up the bay
again. OFF Angel island she put
about again and kept going over
an oval shaped course from that
point to the vicinity of San Quen-
tin until midafternoon, when she
passed out to sea, returning late
last night.
She presented very much the
same appearance as the Monterey,
with her double turrets, except
that she seemed to stand higher
out Of the water. She seemed to
be running as high as ten knots
at times, and had bone in her
teeth visible for miles. As far as
could be learned she behaved very
well.
The Monadnock has led a Rip
Van Wrinkle existance for twenty
one years, except at times there
has been n spasmodic awakening
aboard of her. She was COM
menced in 1875, and on lines that
would have led to the completion
of monitor of that period. Then
came long delay, succeeded by
short periods of progress, until in
1885 she was launched. Since
she was commenced ideas have
changed rs TO naval fighters, and
she is Us near the modern type as
designing and engineering skill
can make her. She has two tur-
rets heavily armored, and carries
four heavy guns, with a strong
battery of rapid firing guns. AS
a fighter she is rated well up with
the Monterey, and the two could
easily dispatch anything now in
the Pacific.

PROTECTED BY OUR FLAG
Secretary Olney Denies an Asser-
ton by DR.. Cyrus Hamlin.
Women Took Refuge Under the
Stars and stripes In the Turk
ish Massacres.
Secretary olney gave last night the fol-

Secretary Olney gave last night the fol-
lowing:
The State Department authorizes the
statement that the assertion made by Dr.
Cyrus Harnlin that American women in
Haskeui fled from massacre. not finding
protection under the American nag, Is an
entire mistake: that the nag was neith 'r
furied nor insuIted at that point and that
not an American man, woman, or child
was at Haskeui during the massacre.
Equally unfounded Is the stttenr-nt
recently made in Chickering Hall by Miss
DR.. Grace Kimball that only fhe English
flag is respected in Turkey. During the
massacre at ConStantinople she hurried
by other flags and found protection under
her own flag and the escort OF the AInt'.i-
can consul general She passed through
the streets where men Were being killed
by mobs and went safely under our flag
up the BaSpOrus.
Through scenes OF mob v!0!enc5. all over
Turkey our flag and missionaries nave
been protected by Turkish troops. We
have lost by incendiary fires at but two
places, both far IN the Interior-the value
being much less than the claims uf Eng
land, France and OF Italy for monks and
PRIESTS killed churches burned or houses
nilaged and for which no indemnity las
been paid.
Every peaceful American arrested or
detained has been released on demand cf
the American minister. The Recommendations
of revolutionists in Turkey are now the
chief danger. SO far as our missionaries
are concerned, whose safety is not pro-
moted by iutcmperatc expressions OF public
opinion, excited by appeals To sentiment, re-
gardless of facts
This departure from the reticeht course
hitherto practced by the department, in
reference to Turkish, Cuban. and Vene-
zuelan matters together with the fact
that only yesterday several cablesIams
from Minister Terrell, at Constantinople
We're made public, emphasizes the I'M
preston prevalent in official circles here
thatthe relations betweenthe United States
and the ottoman porte are receiving CON
siderable attention by Secretary Olney, now
that the Venezuelan matter is practically
out OF his hands, and there Is every indica-
ton that many long-standinG causes OF
friction between the two countries are in
