FOOD ABOARD A wARSHIP.
The Same Es Provided sor Every Man as That Which Goes Co the
 Admiraps Tabie.

4 man who has just returned from visit to United States warship, on which his son is stationed, complains of the food dealt out to the men, and adds that it is not as good as served on the officers tables. As several hun dred Chicago boys are now serving their country aboard warships their friends at home may be interested in knowing the nature of their food.
 Every man aboard a government ship receives the same amount and class of food, be he landsman or an admiral. It's financial equivalent is nine dollars per month, and no au- thority below an act Of congress can change the quantity, unless in emer- gency cases, when the captain may or der short rations The bill of fare at sea for one week includes salt pork, beans, piclzled beef or "salt horse Gs it is known on shipboard, hardtack, coffee, sugar, pickles, salt, pepper, flour, raisins, vinegar and molasses. So many ounces are dealt out to each man, and if he ever goes hungry 1t is from some other cause than insuffi- ciency of food.
 Each mess has it's own cook, usually a landsman, who, besides being re- lieyed from deck duty, receives his own board free by having his rations com muted, that is, drawing nine dollars q month instead of the ships provisions. If he be handy at cooking he is usually given the money equivalent of an ex- tra ration and sometimes ration and half.
 Breakfast will consist of "scouse,' ? or bread hash, which is very palatable; good coffee, with sugar, but no milk; hardtack, or set biscuits, which are made of the best flour and in taste and hardness resembles the Bent water crackers. At noon there is plenty of good pork and beans, bean soup, coffee, pickles. hardtack and such extra dishes as the cook can prepare with his limited means. Supper consists of what is left from dinner made into soups, hashes, etc, with bread and coffee and pickles on the side.
 The other foodstuffs first mentioned are served on other days. Fresh bread is always on hand, if the cook knows how 10 make it, and he generally learns. Duff. pnddings and like dishes l are served with moiasses. When the

With that he took from two compan- ions their coats and went into the hall. Here he hung the garments up, first taking from the folds of each the big gest and noisiest alarm clock which the eonspirators could find. The clocks were carefully set at ten minutes after ten by the timepiece on the mantel in- side. All were placed on the lid of the hall tree. Time passed rapidly and all too soon the chime rang ten. A few minutes later the old gentleman came 10 the head of the stairs and said as of yore:
 Girls, ifs after ten o'clock
 Just at that moment the horrible rat tie of the three alarm clocks rang out. The girls sprang 10 their feet in alarm, not knowing whence came the unearth- ly disturbance. The young men kept sober faces and left the house at once. Then the old man came downstairs and was assailed with reproaches from the girls, who declared that the young men were insulted andIwould not come back.

TORPEDO SERVICE.
Tn Order to ne sueecssgai rt Mast Come Fully sp @ Fhe ae-

There are only two types of torpedo boats that seem to meet the require ments of torpedo service with c squad ron at sea, and, from fixed bases, for the defense of seaports and harbors, --F-ifises-fffs f -iis-ffs is~Q high-eea torpedo boat of 25o 10 800 tons. generally si1ailarto the present Blitish destroyers, to mount three long l5-inch torpedo tubes on the central fore and aft line, with spare torpedo for each tube, and homogeneous battery of eight three pounders, preferably of the automatic type; this boat to keep the sea with the fleet at all times, and to be used either as torpedo boat or destroyer. The speed and coal endurance are to be as high as the displacement and armament of the boat will permit
 The second type is frst-class tor pedo boat of 150 feet and 129 tons, car rying two or three torpedo tubes, all for the long 1s-inch torpedo, and mounted on the central fore and aft line. In case two tubes are carried there will be spare torpedo for each tube; If three tubes, then one torpedo only for each tube. The gun arna- ment is to be four three-pounders. A speed of 2f knots will be ample for this boat, and will permit of 9 coal endur- ance of at least 3s hours at full speed. Both types should have twin screws, and the engines should be in separate compartments longitudinally to mini mize the risk of complete disaoIement, and to permit coal protection through out the machinery space The pro- portion of the two types of torpedo boats could very well be one Of the larger to two of the smaller, and that number would be q suitable propor- tion to each battleship and eralored cruiser. In fact, it would be wise policy to provide for destroyer and two torpedo boats whenever Q large ship is laid down.-Cassier's Magazine.

FRANCOIS copPEE's YOUTH.
Reooilections of the Great Author Recalled by the Accidental
 Finding Of Book.


 Francois Coppee, one of the most charming modern French authors, has lately published some recollections of his early youth, recalled by the aeci- dental finding of the old thnmbwoIn book from which his mother taught him his letters. Like the strains of his Cremona violin, it is another touching evidence of the lasting impression upon great minds of the lessons imparted by q loving psntlewoman. He says.
 This old primer from ahich my mother taught m my letters ihe very oHn which she had preserved from the time when she herself was fenrht re- minds ne that once she also vas lit- tle girl But # is impossible for me 10 imagine hes games CT froliea, heg gouth- ful loves and maiden pleasures, or even her carly joyous married life. Fer ne she will ever be my mother-my dear old mother
 How many trials and anxieties caused this dear parent, not that she ever had Toason tn doubt my love for her even fer Gn instant, but when one is young, full of life, flattered by praise and hope, he is prone to forget that there is seated by the freside at the home which he neglects for worldly pleasures an old mother, who hardly dares so utter timid reproach 10 her fast-growing son, but who is alarmed al the dangers through which he Is nsssirg; who suffers 10 see him lose the purity and canglor of his childhood and who weeps in silence.
 If these lines sEonld meet the eye of some young man about 10 commit an inaiscretiou let him pause moment and reflect that. without being crin- inal, 1t will be a sad day for hiIn, when he Is on old man, to recoIlect that he made his mother weep.
 It is over 20 years since my mother died, but I still retain the saddest recollection in ny heart, for on that day something infinitely sweet was lost out Of my life and never since then have been able 10 feel young again. During the susferings of my late long illness and the dreary hours of convalescence,. my mothers spirit seemed to approach nearer to me in holy meditation. In trying to recall i tbe prayers she taught me as cbiId my soul has sought to raise itsclf to God. II is the hope of again seeing raY mother that inspires the belief in the truth of tlie eterna1 life. How otter have I ihouFhs that to rcioin her iD Heaven I would endeavor 10 lead a bet fer and purer life for the litIe time left ne on earth
