st. Louis VIII Sail For southampton
on Oct. IL.

PHILADELPHIA, oct. 6.-The ex-
cruiser St. Louis. under command of
Captain Randle. yesterday left Cramps
shipyard. where she has been for weeks
on her voyage to New York, where she
will resume her service as a part of the
fleet of the International Navigation
company The first transatlantic trip
of the st. Louis is scheduled for oct. u.
She has undergone extensive alterations
necessary to reconvert her from a cruis-
er into a merchantmen. The st. Paul
yet remains at Cramps.
II was originally intended that the St.
Paul and ST. Louis should go to New
port News for drydocking. but this plan
has been changed. and they will have
this work done on the other side, at
Southampton.
The steamers st. Louis. st. Paul and
Paris will sail from New York in the
order named. as previously announced,
the first sailing to be that of the st.
Louis on oct. ~. The New York, whose
war name was the Harvard, will be
laid up indefinitely at New York, and
il is the intention of the company as
heretofore to maintain their service
with the three steamers mentioned.

garmnlscrs.

II the original Carmen had been en-
lloyed in a Tampa cigar factory she
would not have been cigarmnker, but
n stripper OF tobacco leaves, says the
Boston Transcript. That is the work
that women do in Tampa cigar fac
tories; all the rest seems TO be done by
men. Carmen. as seen here, Is seldom
attractive Generally she Is old ana
black and wrinkled and sometimes
she has a black and unpleasant-lools-
ing cigar In her mouth. AZ times, how
ever. she Is picturesque In high de-
gree 1t seems TO be all one way or the
other with her. Her work is OF little
consequence compared with that OF
the men in the great room upstairs
who actually make the cigars. They
are here by hundreds. chiefly In one
great apartment.
The first thing that strikes the at
tention of visitor unused 10 this fea-
ture of the cigarmaling business is the
'render." In sort OF rude pulpit, or
lecturn, placed against the wall about
midway of the room, sat u man who
was reading in Spanish at the top OF
his voice. There Is not much noise
about tho making Of cigars. and little
need Of conversation Between the men
They are, therefore. able TO hear this
reader, though 10 make them hear he
has 10 declaim very loudly. II must
be ruinous to Lis voice. The man was
reading something political from n
newspaper when I was there. am
told that he of.en reads novels. The
proprietor told me that the reading Is
good thing for the work, the men
working more diligently and product
lively with Il than without It. They
pay the reader out of their own wages.

Troops TO Leave Camp Meade.

CAMP MEADE, Middletown, Pa,
oct. 6.-Colonel Howard. chief quarter
master on the staff of General Graham,
received a telegram last night from the
war department instructing him to buy
no more lumber and build no more
wooden kitchens. This indicates that
there will be an early movement Of the
troops to a warmer climate. While he
has no official information. Colonel
Howard thinks the movement will be-
gin about Oct. 10, and the troops viii be
shipped at the rate of one regiment q
day. His idea is to locate them in the
south until the weather becomes cooler
in the West Indies, and then send them
there General Graham. on the other
hand, favors the retention Of his COM
mand here until the war department is
ready TO ship it direct to Cuba.

FIRE FROM wARsHIPs.
IL Could lie Rendered sIore Effective
If Delivered with DIsorim-
fnatfOn.

Attack By light shot or shell upon
thick armor belt would be Intellectual,
however well directed; and, again,
heavy shot or shell fired from the main
armament of pattleship would not be
properly employed as a rule in attack
ing unarmored positions. The only
reason for putting guns of different
caliber upon a ship is that the target
presented to them by the cnemy's ves-
sci is not homogeneous body. If it
were it would simplify matters to have
all guns alike. The big guns are for
the hard places and the small guns arc
for the soft ones.
There is a proper target upon every
enemy's ship for each of the different
calibers of guns carried, and these tar
gets will vary according to the type Of
ship attacked. So much will depend
upon the first few minutes of a close
action that if a commander could give
instructions to his different gun de-
tachments, before coming within close
range, as to the part Of the ship upon
which they should direct their fire, it
might be OF immense advantage to
him.
Before he can do this he must rec
ognize his enemy and every means
would no doubt be taken TO discover
the Identity of an opponent at the ear
liest possible moment.
Let us suppose the enemy's ship. or
at any rate the class to which she be-
longs is known. Then If the captain
could turn to his notebook and find a
prearranEed plan of attack, suited to
her construction, he could at once tell
the guns crews what their target was
TO be.
II may be that duels between ships
will be of rare occurrence. and that
such actions as that of the Yalu will be
the most frequent where fleets win
pass each other rapidly and where
such rules as propose for discrim-
mating attack could not be put in prac-
tice. But is there not still the chance
that individual ships may be pittcd
against each other when il viii be
worth while TO eight with the head ?'

LADY SMOKERS AT COURT.
Protest of Russian Women at the
Cznrinn's Edict Against
Cigarettes.

I learn from St. Petersburg that
many of the ladies of the cznrinas
household are fearfully upset by re-
quest-equiy Of course, to an or
der-made by their exalted and charm
ing mistress. TO the effect that they
should discontinue the practice Of
smoking cigarettes in her presence,
says a Berlin correspondent of the
London Telegraph. 1t is not easy to
throw up cigarette smoking even at
the behest Of one OF the sweetest wom-
en- In eXlstence; and ladies find 10
more difficult 10 give up such physical
pleasures than men, when the reasons
given for doing so appear to them to
be inadequate. The fair sufferers
have, therefore, drawn up a petition to
the czarina praying that she will recall
her dreadful ukase. The petitioners
have pointed out that ladies are per-
mitted to smoke cigarettes at all the
courts of Europe, that among the vari-
GUS crowned heads and princesses of
the royal blood who smoke they can
mention the dowager czarina and her
sister, the empress of Austria. the
queen of Roumania. the queen regent
of Spain, and the queen of Portugal
all of whom arc inveterate smokers.
Above all, they venture to point out
that the illustrious lady most devoted

The Medieval smIth.

The contemporaries of the medieval
smith were the artists who built the
cathedrals, the masons, architects,
sculptors and carpenters who put
their religion into their work. His
worllmates were men of rectitude who
reared these monuments of "chiseled
music" which have been so often re-
ferred to as the pride and boast Of the
civilized world. We find the worthy
smith was not one whit behind his con-
temporaries. for he also was an artist,
and beautiful specimens of his handi-
work remain TO this day. He wrought
the most graceful forgings by means
OF the fewest possible number of tools
-forgings which showed his love Of
the beautiful, and a painstaking de-
sire to turn out work Of great merit.
The numerous exquisite examples Of
his handicraft which exist in our old
gateways. church doors. altar railings,
weathercocks on old buildings. sign
boards of quaint wayside inns. still
serve as types for continual imitation.
