ENGLAND WOULD WIN.
France No Match for Her, According to
Naval Authorities.

Naval Authorities.
The naval authorities of the United
States do not expect war between Eng
land and France, but if it does come
it is their opinion that the result would
be similar to that between the United
States and Spain. While France has
the larger army, the fighting will be
done at sea, where England is supe-
rior not only to France but to any
other nation. She has twice as many
battleships Of the frst-class as France,
three times as many of the second
! class and five times as many of the
third class.
Great Britain has q frst-class ar
mored cruisers, while France has only
4; she has % tirst-class protected
cruisers, while France has 5, and
48 second-class protected cruisers,
while France has Is. Great Britain
has l second-class cruisers and France
has 6. She has 81 thirdclass pro-
tected cruisers and France has II. Of
the third class, partly protected, Great
Britain has 90 and France none. Of
the sloop class she has Is and France
Is. France, however, has IS third
class cruisers, with no corresponding
rating in the British service. HI tho
line of coast defense, nonseagoing
ironclads, Great Britain has II and
France -. OF the heavily armored
gunboats Great BRIAN has 40 and
France -.
Great Britain has 80 torpedo gun
boats and France Is. She has IS tor
,pedo-boat destroyers, while France
has s. She has 81 torpedo boats Of
class 1; France has SO. Of class 2
she has 80 and France 1863; of the
third-clas she has lO4 and France 46.
A general standardization shows the
following: Great Britain has SO line
vessels, 1853 cruisers, 60 coast defense
and 313 torpedo craft. France has
60 line, "A cruisers, "a coast-defense
and 2S8 torpedo craft.
Great Britain's armored cruisers are
the finest ahoat. They were no bet
ter than the New York was wheE
she was launched six years ago, bu
have been greatly improved since, boil
IN their number and effectiveness. The
most formidable battleships in the
+ world also belong to Great Britain
although they are not much superior
to the Iowa, the Illinois, the Kear
, sarge, the Oregon and Others of I'll
y navy. The most powerful ship in
English navy is battleship 400 fee
in length, IS feet beam, 26 feet
, inches draught, IS knots speed, Goa
y capacity for 22OO tons and dispace
ment of 14,6OO tons. It's armamen
consists of four twelve-inch wire
wound guns, tN elve six-inch, sixtee
four-inch and a number Of machin
q and rapid-fre guns. The most power
= full ships in the French navy are tn
y st. Louis and Charlemagne, each hay
ing a displacement of 1890 tons an
speed of seventeen knots. --nel

:, battleships of our navy.

The curious Sea-Squirt.

The sea-squirt has such curions
organization and passes through so
strange series of changes in its de-
velopment that it and it's allies have
long been regarded with more than
usual interest by naturalists. For
the sea-squirt is a living example Of
degeneracy of structural degradation
so complete that until recently it was
universally supposed to be mollusk.
Its shape is roughly cylindrical, its
color a dingy gray,and it lives attached
by it's base to rock on the soashore.
At it's free end there is hole, COM
monty surrounded by eight small lobes,
and little less than half way down
the side of the body is another open
ing, with six encircling lobes. The
upper aperture is the mouth, and 1t
leads to the digestive tube, which
consists of a spacious pharynx i'm
mediately following the mouth, gull
let. a stomach and an intestine. Com
pletely surrounding the digestive tube,
except along one line, where the
pharynx is fused with the body wall,
is q chamber called the atrium. The
atrirlm opens to the exterior at the
lower of the two external apertures
which is hence called the atrial open
ing. If the Ascidian be carefully
watched under natural conditions, /
current of water will be seen to con
tinually enter the mouth and leave b.
the atrial opening. If it be touched
the creature will suddenly send out
stream of water from each opening
and it's common name is derived from
this habit of squirting when irritated

Virginia Caramel Cake.

This calls for two-t thirds of a pound
of butter, one scant coffee cup OF milk,
two cups Of graduated sugar, four
eggs beaten very light, two scaut cups
OF well-sifted -four, two teaspoonfuls
of baking powder, stirred in at the
last moment; bake in quick oven in
three layers. Make the caramel of
one-half cup of milk; butter the size
of q walnut, and three-quarters of a
pound of chocolate; cook in double
boiler, stirring often until a bubble
rises, but do not let it boil. Add
three tablespoonfuls of vanilla extract
after you take it from the fire. Use
as fast as possible; it thickens rs ii
cools. Spread The layers and cover
the top quickly. Use the same dry.

Meat Omelet,

Take one pound Of finely chopped
beef and to it add one and half tea
spoontuls of salt, a quarter of tea
spoonful of black pepper and six eggs.
Beat the yolks Of the eggs until they

mix we'll, then beat the whites to a
stiff froth and drop them into the

one of beef suet in pan over the

Household Hints,

Sugar in the water for basting meats
will add to their flavor. This is espe-
cially true of veal.
To have broiled ham at it's best boil
the ham so that it is nearly cooked,
let cool in the water, then slice to
broil.
When cooking onions place a pail
of cold water at the kitchen door,
which will prevent the smell from as
cending.
To whiten the kitchen table, spread
it all over with thin paste made of
chloride of lime and hot water; leave
on all night and IN the morning wash
off.
To remove iron rust from marble,
use a solution of one part OF nitric
acid in twenty-five parts of water.
Apply carefully to the spots only, then
rinse with water and ammonia.
Stains on white flannel are hard to
remove. The best way is to mix to-
gether equal parts of the yolk of eggs
and glycerine, apply it to the stains
and allow it to soak for half an hour
or so before the article is washed.
In putting up portieres,in the place
of rings and pins, half-yard lengths
of the cotton rope are sewed to the
goods and thrown over the pole ant
tied. The ends are UNFINISHED to make
the travelled rope tassels so much use(
now.
Gloss can be quickly removed from
garment lE a gentle friction witt
emery paper. The fabric must b
rubbed hard enough to raise the nag
and in case of cashmere or othe
smooth goods, rub the place with
warmed silk handkerchief.
Rub a little salad oil around tn
stopper that has stuck last and the
lay the bottle before the fire, bein
careful to place it at least eightee
inches away. When the glass iswarn
the oil will ooze into the mouth of tt
bottle and the cork frequently come
away quite easily then with q hit
tapping.

The Porto Rico Marketman.
marketman in Porto Rico is

marketman in Porto Rico Is the
small landholder. No Porto Rlcan
possessing any considerable amount
of money would invest it in agricul-
tural products other than sugar cane,
tobacco or coffee. Owing to this beans,
corn. ETC., which could be raised in
quantities large enough to supply the
whole country and leave d surplus for
export, are imported from Spain and
from this country. He also devotes
himself to several small industries.
such as the making of charcoal, ham
mocks, whips, earthenware, canes and
especially straw hats, some OF them
of fine quality.
The mar ct places in Porto Rico are
owned by the municipality. They are
generally in the large squares, the
centre of the market being without q
roof and divided into small spaces, IN
which canvas tents are erected daily
by the merchants.
These spaces are rented, or, rather,
a tax is collected on them, each day
from the country people who ust
them, and who, in many towns, ar
not permitted to sell their wares IL
any other place. The. houses sur
rounding the market place are rented
BY the year and they are usually oe
oupied by grocers, butchers, etc. :

An Ancient Bargee.

bateliere, who is one hundred and two
wears old. This ancient person has
spent nearly all her life on the water.
She is in full possession of her facul-
ties, is able to take q hand at the

repairing substance wasted in func,
