Tennessee's rudder was useless; her
smokestack was shot away; she could
not bring gun to bear; she showed a
white flag as five ships were rushing
for her. 1.-The hardest battle l have
fought since the days of the old Essex"
said the admiral The defences of Mo-
bile were isolated as Forts Philip and
Jackson were-the great victory was
won. Siege work was begun by Cauly's
troops, but the ships commanded the
weak sides of the works, and on the
oath of August Fort Morgan capitulat-
ed. The unlimited congratulations of
the whole country followed.
Farragut had again proved the ability
of even wooden ships to capture great
forts.
The admiral remained three months
in the bay. His health was broken by
great mental and physical labors. He
begged for rest and was astounded
when he was offered the command of
the Fort Fisher expedition. December
10, '64, he anchored in New York har-
Dor. With few days of command in the
James River, when Porter was at Fort
Fisher, Farragut's active service ended.
Lively uOIlOl w DIS ollON cl GU
upon him Congress created the grade
Of admiral for him. He had but one
successor, David D. Porter, the naval
hero of Fort Fisher.
The president gave Farragut the COM
mand of the European Squadron, and
without request sent permission for
Mrs. Farragut and a kinswoman to &C
company him. They visited all the
pleasant places. The special attentions
would fill volumes.
Returning from San Francisco to the
east in 1869 he was seized with vio-
lent Illness In the middle of the next
winter he unwisely took charge of the
funeral of George Peabody in Boston.
August IA he quietly passed away at
the house of Rear Admiral Pennocl,
commandment Of the Portsmouth navy
yard The navy department sent the
Guerrero to bring the body home, and
1t was buried with great honors at
Woodlawn. In his honor are a statue
in Washington, a memorial bronze in
Madison Square and a mural tablet in
the Church of the Incarnation, of which
he was member.
He deserves unlimited eulogy There
is no good quality of manhood which
he did not possess. He was gentle and
kind to infancy and old age, a true son
and father, a loving husband, pure in
heart through the temptations of the
sailor life, a diligent student and full
master of his profession, an intense pa.
triot, the very pink and perfection OF
courtesy and high courage, and Chris.

Lastly he wanted children educated
in more useful and practical ways. The

it could be given to ones neighbor, and

sailed that afternoon for the north for
a brief rest.
The great highways of the MISSISSIPPI
pi and it's tributaries were open to the
sea. Illicit and reasonable traffic with
New Orleans and the upper country
was reduced to small proportions. The
confederacy was divided. Mere block
ade did not satisfy Farragut. AS it
grew stringent Mobile, with large rivers
flowing into it's bays, became the best
port on the gulf coast left to the con-
federacy. The longer the capture was
delayed the more difficult became the
problem. If the confederates were
building iron clads, iron clads must be
called to fight them. So Farragut
urged.
The channel ran through flats over
which Farargut could not sail, while
they would afford a refuge where the
ironclad Tennessee could lie at will be-
yond serious harm from his guns.
They used the leisure granted by the
refusal to let him go as soon as posi-

After six months absence the adj
miral returned to his New Orleans sta

take Mobile in cooperation with land
forces. Six months passed before de-
cisive action was taken, the admiral
paying from time to time a.visit of in
spection to Mobile
The iron clad ram Tennessee was pre-
pairing for him. 1t was we'll devised to
throw off hostile shot and carry heavy
guns, and drew but fourteen feet. Her
guns were rifles; our iron clads carried
smooth bores. Torpedoes exploding on
touch were plentiful. Heavy piles left
a narrow passage near Fort Morgan.

Farragut ordered that the attack take
place on the morning of August S. His
ships were soon taking position in
pairs dashed each to each. Slipping tea
at breakfast he said: well, Drayton,
we might as well get under way" The
flagship crossed the bar at 6:10. At $50

shifted his position Captain Watson

himself. The battle was at it's height

Wrong eating makes us weak, be-

Wrong eating can be made right by

Next he wanted absolute freedom of
women. On this depended the right
kind of a home He considered mar
rage a contract and only to last as
long as love, the proper terms of the
contract should be mutual. He would
advocate giving man divorce on
reasonable grounds, where the woman
frequently violated the contract, pro-
viding for the support of the children
and wife; while he would give a wo-
man divorce for the mere asking, for
he considered a Woman's chance after
marriage and divorce much less than
mans under the same conditions. These
things he deemed necessary for the
sake of society, for children should be

He next discussed the labor question.
He enumerated and explained the vari-
Gus plans that have been tried in the
past with little or no success and to his
mind the difficulty between labor and

introduction Of mechanisms required
for mounting and working the heavy
guns, and partly to a large increase in
the outlay Of armor. Then came the
reaction in favor of less costly ships,
and vessels were produced for G600,-
900 to 6 $50, 900 between 1875 and 1885.
The tendency toward increased cost
reasserted itself in 1885, the Nile and
Trafalgar each costing about GS50,000.
The Royal Sovereign class of 1889 cost
about 97T5,000, and the Majestic
about 9S40,00e. All of these figures
are for ships built in the royal dock
yards and include incidental charges,
as well as cost of ornaments. They
include gun mountings, with their
costly mechanisms, and torpedo gear.
British battleships, however, in pro-
portion to their dimensions, are less
costly, it appears, than battleships of
other navies. A French first class bat
tleship costs about G1,000,000, and so
do the corresponding ships in the Rus
sian and Italian fleets. The American
battleship India cost of 100000 ex-
elusive of armor, which involved an
expenditure of nearly G340,000. For
German battleships now building, of
about Il, 200 tons, the estimated cost
is about 100000.

THUMB PRINT EVIDENCE.
Important Part Played by Testimony in
Mrs. Eehrens Murder trial

Important Part Played by Testimony in
Mrs. Behrens Murder trial
DAVENPORT, Iowa, November 3.-The
fate of Mrs. Christene Behrens, on trial
for murder, was left undecided by jury
which, after considering it's verdict for
fifty-two hours, was discharged this even
ing.
Last December the accused deserted her
husband, Claus Behrens, to live with
Henry Bendt, of Rock Island, ILL.,, and in
July she returned home, her husband
promising to change his insurance policy
to her name instead of their daughters
A week after the new policy was issued
Behrens died in his home, with his wife
as his only attendant. Paris green was
found in the dead mans stomach at the
autopsy.
Bendt and Mrs. Behrens were arrested.
Two notes were found later purporting to
be written by Behrens, and stating that
he had committed suicide. A high school
Teacher, at the trial, identified one note
from a thumb print found upon the SUR
face, and compared with the thumb of
the dead man exhumed ten weeks after
his death. The theory of thumb-print
Identification has been the basis of an in
teresting contest during the fortnight's
trial.

cham's horse was a pet, and whinnied
when it scented its master. The In
dams did not awake, and both horses
were taken away. They could not get
their own saddles. but got two old
Indian saddles. as being better than
riding bareback. Then they stampeded
the Indian horses, and drove them to-
ward Fort Benton. Passing a narrow
canon Warcham told his companion
to hurry along with the horses as fast
as he could and he would wait for the
Indians, seven in number, whom they
had seen coming afar off. He con-
cealed himself as well as he could
and awaited their coming. When the
battle was over the seven Indians had
become good Indians, and Warcham had
not a single scratch. After resting his
horse he overlook his companion, who
was nearly scared to death and almost
worn out with the old saddle. They
rested, not fearing any danger, and
rode leisurely into Fort Benton, where
they sold their stock and remained UNI
til they had recruited. 1t is related that
neither was able to sit down for week
after arriving in the town.
"Warcham, even to this day. when
he sees an Indian, fires up, CRASHES his
teeth, and regrets that he has not his
gun with him. He has never killed
any women or children, but those who
know him best are certain that few
Indians have ever met him on the plains
and gone away alive. He is now in the
yigor of life, between IS and so years
of age. and is regarded by all his neigh
bors as one of the States best citizens.
But he can't conceal, and doesn't try
to conceal, his extreme hatred for all
Indians"

In an English magazine article Sir
William White, the naval constructor,
furnishes some very interesting figures
showing the relative cost of ancient
and modern battleships. He shows
that in 1897 the Sovereign of the Seas
cost Sal, geo, half of which was for
labor This was an exceptional out
lay, and other than legitimate expenses
were charged against that vessel. At
the beginning Of this century 100
gun line-of-battleship cost from $685.
900 to e7o,000, exclusive of armament.
The 121-gun sailing three-decker cost
nearly 100000, and the screw three
decker of 1857 about e220000. The
use of armor added greatly to cost, and
the Warrior of 1859 figured up nearly
93S0,000. The Dreadnought of 1878
cost e620, and the Infexible, which
followed her, cost G810,000. These
large amounts were partly due to the

Lincoln, Neb, November S.-Mr.
Bryan to-day gave ous the following
statement:
ITO the Associated Press:
"The returns are so incomplete that
1T is impossible 70 discuss yesterdays
election in detail. The Republicans
everywhere endorsed the Republican
administrator, and in view of the
losses sustained by them in almost
every State, it would seem that Repub-
lican politics are not being endorsed
az the polls. The sentiment in favor
of the Chicago platform shows a
healthy growth throughout the coun-
try. Perhaps our opponents will now
admit that silver is not dead. The
attempt to prove international bimet-
allism has proved failure, and it is
now more apparent than ever that the
people of the United States must leg
islate for themselves on the financial
question. Free and unlimited coinage
at 16 to / is nearer now than it was
year ago. High tariff upon a gold
basis has disappointed those Republic
cans who looked to it for relief.
Taken as a whole, the returns are very
encouraging. I think voice the senti-
ments of Democrats, Populists and
oliver PenuhlicanS when T saw that
the fight will be continued with even
more earnestness until the gold mon
opoly is broken and the money trust
is overthrown. The fusion forces in
crease their percentage in Nebraska
and probably their actual majority.

Piccadilly, were entered by burglars
some time between the hour Of closing
on Saturday evening and the time of
opening Monday morning, and dia-
monds valued at upward of 5000 were
stolen
The entire walls, ceiling, shutters and
