THE TWO NAVIEs.

In order that timld souls may not be
unduly perturbed by the stories that
are printed in the daily papers concern
ing the very powerful ships OF the
Spanish navy, it is well perhaps to say
that the Spanish navy is not more than
one-third as powerful as our own, and
is probably not more than one-tenth as
effective. The power Of navies cannot
be judged accurately by comparing lists
Of ships and armaments. The condl-
tion OF the ships and guns must be
reckOned with: and while the American
ships are always In drst-class order.
Spanish ships rarely are. There is the
Alfonso XII. for instance. counted
among the Spanish feet OF effective
vessels. As a matter OF fact, her boilers
are in such condition that she cannot
move The relative effectiveness OF nav
les depends upon officers and crews
upon the human equation-and In that
respect the American navy Is as good
as any In the world, and the Spanish
navy is one Of the weakest. st.-Harper's

FnnCATION IN AUSTRALIA.

Perhaps nothing lmpresseS one who
visits Australia for the first time moro
than the attention given to education
In the cities and even country towns he
will see cOmmOdious school buildings
while the residents in the lonely bush
have usually a neat schOol-house with
in easy access. In all the Australia
colonies education is compulsory and IN
most Of them it is free. In New South
Wales and in Western Australia, how
ever, fees are paid to a certain extent
Parents who can afford to pay fees are
Obliged to do so. The teachers are well
paid. IN Adelaide and its suburbs head
teachers receive salaries varying from
6420 to e450 a year, and in South
Australia generally the salary Of a head
teacher varies from G150 TO e300 a
year The lowest salary paid to any as
sistant teacher in South Australia In
1895 was G7S, and this was very excep-
tiOnal. The cost of primary education
in 1893 in Australia, taken as a whole.
was 4 c 15s. sd. per scholar; and the
cost per head of population was los. Sd.
Within the last two or three years
however, a retrenchment policy has
been pretty generally carried out IN
educational, as in other matters. The
instruction given in primary schools is
Of a very high order Indeed, until the
retrenchment policy began to be ap-
piled. many branches Of education were
taught which are now, more properly
regarded as extras. Leisure Hour.

AN ELBE ROMANCE sPOILED.

The story Of the sea that lately went
through many newspapers has come
to a melancholy end. 1t told how q
French fisherman picked up a floating
bottle at Cancale, and how the cast
away bottle contained a visiting card
in which Herr Bernhard Ramsperger
a passenger on the doomed and sinking
Elbe, took a last farewell OF his young
bride There was passionate refer
ence 10 the Ewigkeit and the Jenseits
and the message touched many hearts.
If, however, there can be anything with
a CLEAN Of humOr in connection with
such a tragic and deplOrable catastro-
phe as the sinking of the Elbe, it Ger
tainly is to be found in the history Of
Herr Ramsperger's bottle pest. A
German contemporary knows the
sender and reconstructs, as the French
say, the history of the last farewell.
The shipwreck took place in 1895, the
author OF the last farewell Joined G
German firm in Weingarten in 1896,
and in 1897 he was crossing the seas
with holy fear OF the police on
either shore, that Revue des DeuI
.MOndes which malefactOrs so justly
dread The rest was a simple ruse;
a bottle and a card, and hastily scrib-
