Joseph Fleischman. OF No 1ll5 Broad
way, has suggested 10 Assistant secre-
tary Of the Navy Theodore Roosevelt the
use Of balloons for extended marine OBJ
servation. He says the suggestion has
been laid before the Naval Board Of
Strategy.
Under clear skies observers on ship
board, aided by the most powerful
glasses, can cover a horizon range of only
thirty miles. Mr.. Flelschman suggests
that balloons capable OF sustaining sew
eral observers should be carried by the
larger scouting cruisers. such as the Yale
and the Harvard. Whenever deemed ad-
visable these balloons could be raised
from the vessels decks, secured by stout
cables. From the balloons 10 the deck

THE QUEEN REGENT.

The world is not wasting much sym
pathy on the Spanish as a nation, but
everybody feels kindly towards the
Queen Regent. Her situation is most
deplorable We do not believe that she
wanted war. Indeed she appears to
have done all that she could 10 avert it
and we have no doubt that II she had
been left free to go her own way, she
would have made such concessions as
would have been satisfactory to the
Cuban insurgents and to the United
States government.
But her people would not hear to con-
cessions. and if Cuba had been suTTen-
dered without a struggle there would
have been revolution az once in Spain
and the dynasty would have fallen forth
with The Queen was forced into war
and now those people who were really
responsible for hostilties are loudest In
their .denunciation of the government
for the disaster at Manila. which # was
impossible for the government TO avert.
And so It would seem that Spain is TO
have both war abroad and revolution at
home. Il is a hard lot for the Queen
and we sincerely sympathize with her.
She is a woman Of proud spirit, she has
always borne herself well and, which is
TO say a great deal, she has the respect
of her people.

God bless her, and may she bloom
perennial. Let her hold aloft her
ideals and lift the world up from it's
trough and it's counting room. from
it's short-cake and long division, to
those wing-starting emotions and
ethereal joys which knock the top of
of time and let eternity drop in all its
glory down. And if in any spring
time, when the swallows nest again,
some Richard occur de lion, longing
for crusade to capture the sacred
things OF earth, shall make war upon
her heart, we commend her to his
keeping; only let her Insist that some
thing equally sacred shall be given as
q hostage to fortune in return. Hav-
ing studied the languages, she could
decline, but she won't, for the love
birds are nesting in her heart. So we
offer mistletoe bough for a, wreath,
though it take a wilderness-for her
name is legion, and leave her where
we found her among the mysteries Of
life, wondering what biscuits grow on,
and standing at the threshold of the
earthly gates ajar.
There are others besides the girl
graduate, but we like her best and
shall pass them by. They do most of
their thinking on the campus with
their feet, and we are not as yet past
master of ped-degrees. They have
corns on their intellects and ought to
be treated by the free dispensary CHI ir-
opodist provided by the state. But
the girl gradute, the spirit without
guile, who jumps off her pedestal on
commencement day and proceeds to
immediate herself on the altar of a
domiciled devotion, without so much
as having learned how to boil water,
is the sweet object OF our solicitude.
The world is waiting and watching for
her today. We forget Greece and
take our thoughts from Thermopylae
to let her pass. Once more God bless
her. j. Adam Bede.
