MONSTERS OF THE DEEP.
Figures showing the Growth of tho
Modern Battleship.

From the New York Times.
The first of the great British ar
mored battleships, the Thunderer, was
launched in 1872, and was Of the un-
precedented displacement of $3.50 tons.
1t was followed in 1875 and 1876 by the
Dreadnaught. 10,S20 tons, and the In
flexible, 1850, and then there was
reaction to smaller models on account
of the enormous weight and thickness
of the armor plate, which ran up to
Is inches or more In 1884 the large
size was attained again in the Rod
ney. 10000 tons, and 1887 the Trafal-
gar, of II $40 tons, was launched. With
the improvement of armor plate by the
Harvey process and the mixture of
nickel with steel, the thickness of the
belts was reduced to inches, and at
the same time with stronger explosives
and improved prOjectiles and gun con-
struction, and caliber of ordnance has
been reduced to 10 or 10 inches with in
creased effect, and as a consequence a
larger displacement has become praC-
ticable and the latest British battle
ships are of the Majestic type, of A.
900 tons. Foreign nations have largely
followed the British example; but
France, the next naval power in rank,
has never gone beyond about $1,000
tons in battleships. The Charles Mar
tel and Jaureguiberry, launched in
1893, are of 1853 tons. The Bouvet,
finished in 1896. is of 12,0l2, but the two
still later ones, not yet finished. the
St Louis and Gaulois, have a displace-
ment of 1,o97 tons. Italy, however,
beginning with the Durillo, II ,13S tons,
as long ago as 1876, and going up to
1890 in the Lepanto, in 1888, kept up
the bulky hulls and heavy armor
(though less than the enormous maxi
mum) until within a few years, but
her two newest. the Ammiraglio di ST.
Bon and the Emanuele Filberto, are
of $500 tons. Their principal arma-
ment is TO consist of 10-inch guns, in
place Of the old 17-inCh of the Lepanto
and the 14-inch of the Re Umberto, a
13, S93 ton vessel built in 1888. The best
opinion now is against the extreme
of bulk, of thickness Of armor and
weight of armament. Our own first
class battleships are all recent and Of
10, ,2SS and II, $40 tons displacement.

There are doubtless many sad hearts
now in Havana, many families with
some member missing, fighting on ono
side or the other. There are sisters,
sweethearts, wives, as we'll as active
combatants, within the walls of Ha-
vana; many an anxious face peering
over the balcony rails of the rrado,
watching the soldiers go by to their
camps in the suburbs. We do not war

us hope we shall reduce it by shellinS

LOVE IN POETRY.

The writer made the discovery--per-
haps not an original One-that the
Cuban lover, like his Saxon sympa-
thizer, frequently drops into poesy as
a means of relieving the pressure on
his overburdened heart. The stock
poetry of lovers is about the same in
both languages, English and Spanish,
differing mainly in having n different
tag on it; one quoting Byron or Tom
Moore, perchance, and the other-well,
some author of celebrity in Espana.
Sometimes, as in this country his fell
low-sufferer does, he strives to be orig
inal, and then--oh, ye gods!
Even his prose takes a tinge of
poetry, as shown by this example ex-
tracted from a young lady's album OF
verse and sentiment:
Angel of light! Flower born In
heaven and watered by angels tears!
Pardon me that / even attempt to
utter with these profane lips thy sacred
name! 1t is not a song only that |
would fain offer thy delicate ears, but
a blessing a benediction; a feeble ef-
fort, 1t is true, but as pure as thy
beauty; as enthusiastic as the soul OF
youth, since 10 sing thy manifold
graces worthily / confess 1t would be
necessary to hire choir of angels and
heavenly harp!
1T is not possible for a mere mortal,
who has only received from on high a
heart receptive, soul responsive, to
bask in the flame of thy beauty with
out being consumed with admiration,
with veneration, and yet with sad
ness!"
AND so on until the courtship is COM
pleted and wedding bells ring out the
