THE SPANISH TORPEDO FLEET.
Interesting Preparations for the
Trip Across the Atlantic.

New York, March 8.-A Cadiz CORE
spondent of the Herald says:
Much interest is taken in the coming
voyage of the torpedo destroyers and tor
pedo boat squadron. Its novelty and the
manner in which the boats will be rugged
are much deliberated upon and may be of
interest to naval men.
In the Rayo and Azor alone it has been
necessary to repair the machinery. On
the torpedo boats Terror, Furor and Plu-
ton temporary rigging is arranged for
three masts and for small sails to be used
if possible. The magazines have been
emptied of war material, SO as to carry
coal, and not augment the radius of their
action. The torpedo destroyer artillery
on deck has been dismounted to make
them more seaworthy. All these guns have
been placed in such position that they can
be remounted at a moments notice.
The transatlantic steamer City of Cadiz
will accompany the squadron. She is filled
with coal and provisions literally up to her
scuppers. She is now fitted as a war
transport and has on deck four cannon of
IL centimetres calibre, two of 0 cent?
metres, two mitrailleuses, and two rapid
fire guns. In her bunkers she carries a
large supply Of coal solely for the squad
ron. One hundred tons is in sacks ready
for immediate use.
In order that the trip may not be de-
layed more than necessary, on the deck of
the Transatlantic steamer is fixed large
spirit and two pipes, which will serve to
launch into the ocean water-tight cases,
which will contain water. victuals and
fresh bread. In this manner all provis-
ions will be distributed during the voy-
age.
1t is estimated that the squadron will
travel at the rate of 10 miles an hour, 40
days time being taken on the trip. The
squadron will have to be recoaled three
times during the passage, revictualed each
day, and the start depends on the condi-
ton of the weather.

DEEP DOWN.

We may move along the pathway Of life
enjoying what seems to us a fair amount
of good health, but there comes over ev-
cry human being at some time some I'M
expected condition of the system which
may be torture for after years. Such is
an insinuating and unexpected attack of
Sciatica resulting from weakness of the
nervous system, which can give more pain
to the square inch than any pain that az
fiicts mankind. 1t has been found out.
however, that the prompt and vigorous
application of st. Jacobs Oil to the seat
of the pain will by persistent rubbing
finally penetrate and cure by soothing and
strengthening the diseased nerve. 1t Is
a pain that needs to be watched. The
Sciatica nerve plays so important part
that its arrangement may cripple. Be-
ware of Its putting you on crutches, for
1t may keep you there for many q day,
while the great remedy may in a day put
you on your feet.

Mckinley Directs Negotiations for
the Purchase Of Eight Vessels.

New York, March IA Herald special
from Washington says:
Fully recognizing the Importance Of be-
ing ready for any emergency, the presi-
dent has directed the navy department
to open negotiations looking to the pur-
chase abroad Of warships This fact is for
the first time made public. It probably
would not have transpired at this juno
ture but for the excitement caused by
the statement published that Spain had
purchased or was negotiating for warships
being built by the Elswick company of
England for Brazil, and for other ships
under construction.
With view Of obtaining the facts your
correspondent called upon high official
of the administration and obtained an
official admission--mad for the first time
that, while the president does not anti
cipate war, he recognizes that there is a
possibility of hostilities growing out Of
the Cuban problem and the Maine disas-
ter, and that he proposes to be prepared
for it.
There has been ample evidence of this
in the preparations, patent to everybody,
which have been in progress for some
time, but there has been no official ad-
mission to this effect until now.
The builders have urged that the pur-
chases be made at once, as they say that
a declaration of war between the United
States and Spain would result in the en-
forcement Of neutrality measures and pre-
vent the sale Of the ships.
The battleships and armored cruisers
have been built by English and German
firms for governments which are now un-
able to pay for them, and this govern
ment would be able to obtain the vessels
by simply putting down the amount of
cost. The four torpedo boats have been
offered by the Thornycroft Shipbuilding
Company, whose boats are recognized by
experts to be among the best in the world.

A WORD OF ADVICE
To Those Coming to Alaska or the
Klondike Gold Fields.

One thing should be impressed upon
every miner, prospector or trader coming
to Alaska, to the Klondike, or the Yukon
country, and that is the necessity for
providing an adequate and proper food
supply. Whether procured in the states,
in the Dominion. or at the supply stores
here or further on, this must be his prim-
airy concern. Upon the manner in which
the miner has observed or neglected this
precaution more than upon any other
one thing will his success or failure de-
pend.
These supplies must be healthful and
should be concentrated, but the most
careful attention in the selection of foods
that will keep unimpaired indefinitely
under all the conditions which they will
have to encounter is imperative. For in
stance, as bread raised with baking pow
der must be relied upon for the chief part
of every meal, imagine the helplessness of
miner with can of spoiled baking
powder. Buy only the very best flour;
it is the cheapest in the end, Experience
has shown the Royal Baking Powder to
be the most reliable, and the trading
companies now uniformly supply this
brand, as others will not keep in this eli
mate. Be sure that the bacon is sweet,
sound and thoroughly cured. These are
the absolute necessities upon which all
must place chief reliance, and can under
no circumstances be neglected. They
may, of course, be supplemented by as
many comforts or delicacies as the pros
pector may be able to pack or desire to
pay for.-From the Alaska Mining Jour
nal
A book Of recipes for all kinds Of cook
cry, which is specially valuable for use
upon the trail or in the camp, is published
by the Royal Baking Powder Company,
of New York. The receipts are thoroughly
practical and the methods are carefully
explained, SO that the inexperienced may,
with its aid. readily prepare everything
required for good, wholesome meal, or
even dainties if he has the necessary
materials. The matter is in compact
though durable form, the whole book
weighing but two ounces. Under a spe-
cial arrangement, this book will be sent
free to miners or others who may de-
sire it. We would recommend that every
one going to Klondike procure copy.
