The FIRST TORPEDO.
Exploded Too Soon by an Excited Man To
Destroy q Federal Gunboat.

Destroy q Federal Gunboat.
Mr.. X. o. Crowley, formerly electrician
OF the torpedo division, g. S. N, contrib
utes to The Century for June an account
of 1.-THE Confederate Torpedo Service"
After describing the organization of the
first torpedo service Mr.. Crowley says:
Having our System now perfected, we
established torpedo station some five or
six miles below Richmond by submerging
two iron tanks, containing 1000 pounds
OF powder each, in 12 feet of water, lead
Ing the wires ashore and connecting them
with galvanic battery concealed in a
small hut In deep ravine. From the
battery house the wires were led to an ele-
waited position near by, where the man in
charge could keep n lookout for passing
vessels. The position of the torpedoes in
the water was indicated by two sticks
planted about ten feet apart on the bluff
and In line with each other and the tor
pedoes, and the watchman's instructions
were TO explode them by contracting the
wires as soon as an enemy's vessel should
be on line with the two pointers. All
| this being prepared, we awaited the APP
proach of a Federal gunboat. AS was
usually inc case, one como Wncn lcaSt eA-
| pected on beautiful clear day, when our
| entire force except the man stationed as
lookout was absent in Richmond, prepar-
ing other war material.
We were apprised by telegraph Of the
rapid approach of the gunboat and imme-
diately FASTENED toward our first station,
but we arrived too late The man In
charge had not seen the United States flag
for long period and, never having pre-
| viously seen gunboat so near, lost his
| presence of mind and fired one of the 1000
| pound powder tanks when the gunboat
was at least 90 to 80 yards distant. A
great explosion took place, throwing up a
large column of water to a considerable
height, and the gunboat, by her momen-
tum, plunged into the great trough and
caught the downward rush of a wave on
her forward deck. The guards We're bro
ken away, half dozen men were thrown
overheard, and other damage to the gun
boat was caused. The steamer then turn
ed about as quickly as she could and pre-
pared TO retrace her route down the river
after picking up the men who had been
! washed overheard There was a brilliant
opportunity to accomplish her total de
struction by firing the remaining torpedo
| as she passed back over it, but, alas! thu
| man had been so astounded at the first ex
plosion that he had fed precipitately
without waiting to see what damage hat
been done, and the gunboat was thus en-
abled to return down the river in safety.

The War aud the Future Of America

There is no cause for alarm if the war
with Spain should broaden the scope of
American intentions, even if colonial
enterprise becomes an American policy.
a colonial policy need not be considered
as absolutely foreign to the country's
welfare. The early statesmen objected
to 1t principally because the country
was too weak to undertake it, and it
was well recognized that future contin-
gencies might justify it. Replying to
criticism of his course in the purchase
OF the Louisiana territory, jefferson
said: "Who can limit the extent to
which the federative policy may operate
ehectivelyP The larger our association
the less will it be shaken by local pas
sions. " 1t need not be surprising should
many OF our traditions be overturned
ana new relations assumed toward the
rest OF the world. War generally brings
new responsibilities to victorious ma
uon, and America is not likely to be
an exception to the rule.-Galveston

MORO AS A FORTS NAME,
Used When the Fort Projects From .
Height as DO Negroes Lips.

Used When the Fort Projects From Q
Height as DO II Negroes Lips.
The word Moro, as applied to the
forts in Cuba, has confused many per.
sons who were surprised to learn Of the
existence of several Of them with this
name. The word is one little used by
Cubans It's use on the island is confin-
ed almost exclusively to the Spaniards.
In the dictionary moro" is defined as
"anything that is round, or "a promi-
nent overhanging lip. The Spaniards
always describe negro mouth as
moro" from the projecting lips. The
word is also applied to a cat, but in
this sense it is taken to refer to the pur-
ring of the animal
When applied TO the castles or for
tresses in Cuba. the word is to be taken
in the same significance it possesses
when applied to IA negro S mouth. These
defenses are usually perched on heights,
over which they project just as protrud-
ing lips do. The word is always spelled
with two RS The word moro is said to
mean moorish, belonging to the
Moors." In jocular style it is applied
to wine not mixed with water. 1t also
means as noun Moor or native OF
Africa 1t is also used in Cuba to desig
nate a particular kind of horse collar -

DAUGHTERS OF SYRIA.
Women with Loyal Feelings For Their
Adopted Country Make a Flag.


Unless Uncle Sans present conflict
with Spain should come to an end in the
near future one of the flags that will
go 10 the front will be made by the
hands Of Syrian women These women
are members of society in New York
calling itself the Daughters Of Syria,
and as they wish in some way TO show
their interest in the welfare of their
adopted country they have decided that
there would be no more fitting way of
doing it than by presenting flag to one
OF the regiments. Having made up their
minds to do this, the making of ban
ner was matter of absolute necessity,
for they found that an order for the ma
tional colors could not be filed within
three months, owing to the great de-
mand for them since the beginning of
the war The flag will probably be pre-
sented to the Twenty. second regiment.
The Society of the Daughters of Syria
was organized two years ago for social
and educational purposes 1t is in no
sense charitable society, but it con-
ducts free evening class for such of its
members as do not know English, and
outsiders are admitted at nominal fee.
Ii is also trying to open reading room
and circulating library for women. II
is supported by membership fees, and
its constitution prevents its accepting
financial aid from any but Syrians.
