The United States Navy.

The lack of trustworty information concerning our navy, has induced the editors of the Scientific American to publish special naval supliment which is certainly unique amongst the many many magazines constituting our cur rent periodical literature It's hand some illustrations, it's simple dscrip- tions enable one almost at a glance to comprehend the essential features in the construction and manipulation of our ships, Tn this admirable publication will he found our battleship "India na" and Massachusetts, " with their ponderous guns and powerful engines; the Columbia" and 'Minneapolis,' '' destroyers of commerce; the monitors "Amphitrire" and Miantonomoh. ; illustrated by excellent sectional views showing the construction and manipu- lation Of their huge turrets and guns; the swift torpedo boats ''Porter" and Bailey" the Vesuvius" with her three dynamite guns, and "Katahdin' with her formidable ram-both of them types of vessels found in no oth CT navy of the world. The "Holland' submarine boat is also represented To assist the reader in ascertaining the exact extent of Spanish possessions in the West Indies, an accurate, colol- ed map of Cuba accompanies the paper,
 Says our own Captain Mahan: with persons of average decision of charac ter and of average openness of mind the wider the attention paid to the contemporaueous development of naval material under the advances of science the more doubtful and ill-defned in clines to become the mental apprecia ton of existing conditons." It is this very perterbation of mind, this lack of clearness of thought regarding our war ships, that publication of this nature Is well calculated to remove.
 It is sold for 25c by all newsdealers and by the publ.she Messrs. Mum X Co.,, New York.

City Funding Bonds.

City Treasurer SimOnet estimates
that funding bonds to the amount
Of about $4,000 will need to be
issued to place enough money In the
city revenue fund to pay all orders
as they are presented. The city is
now about $1S,D0o back, but the
largest receipts Of the year have re-
Gently come in. The appOrtfoDmeht
from the regular tax payments have
been received, and most of the liquor
licenses recently paid. For several
months in the future the expenses
will be gre ater than the receipts. and
to issue funds at all times the
amount OF $25, 900 should beprovided
at this time. When the city once
gets on cash basis no expense
should be contracted for which there
were not availa BILE funds. But there
is nothing III the present charter to
prevent the building up Of another
floating debt-and that Is one Of the
Objectionable features of the charter.

fare he preferred was Of the guerrilla
sort. The men who served under hin
were necessarily on the march and con
stantly exposed to danger. The best
horse would never last him more than 9
week.
While marching he was constantly
galloping up and down from the ad
vance guard Of his command to the real
and back egain. He was indefatigablt
in cutting railway communications and
capturing trains.
He was the bette noire Of the Federal
troops, and when General Sherman ad

Although General Wheeler is now 81
years old, he seems to have lost none Of
his hornetlike proclivitiea In the ad

of his men. Sometimes he was out with
the administers. He did not depend en-
