The cruiser BALTIMORE Joined Commo-
dore Dewey's squadron only about six
weeks ago. 1t is said that in anticipation
of trouble ahead, she carried an extraor-
dinarily large stock of powder and pro-
ships, which were already well supplied.
In view of this fact, there is no unleash

The people of this country can afford to
give fun credit 10 the spaniards for tho
valor they displayed at Manila. All of the
meager news so far received goes to show
that they fought hard and bravely, not
withstanding their ships We're inferior to
those of their opponents. Meantime, il
should not for a moment be considered chat
the contest was altogether one-sided. The
Spaniards were on their own ground. were
familiar with all of the surroundings. and
had but one force 10 contend against. The
Americans, on the other hand, were H.
strange waters and had an enemy of three
arms-the ships, the forts and the mines
to reckon with. Therefore, while the Span
iards fought bravely and well, the Amer
loans covered themselves with glory.

The need for new scheme for the or
ganization of the personnel of the navy is
illustrated in the case of Commodore
Dewey. No matter how brave or brilliant
one may be In the navy, he cannot win his
way forward unless congress comes to
his aid with a special act. Before ma
val officer can be advanced to the grade
above the one he holds, somebody above
him has got to die orabe retired for age or
disability. The Young officer of the navy,
therefore, must wait upon the process. of
nature, or a lucky accident, for his pro-
motion. What is needed is merit sys-
TEN, and not system in which ability is
continually handicapped by seniority.

An engineer of Cracow, Malachowski
has devised a valuable instrument, by
means of which plant and animal life can
be studied under water, and ships hulls
and bridge piers be examined. says En-
cheering. The instrument is practically
a binocular with long tube. 1t consists
of three PARASITIC lenses, the diverging
tube made of zinc and the closed box
into which the zinc cone fits. This box
is made of sheet iron, has a diameter of
about one foot, and is closed below by a
strong glass plate packed between rubber
washers. In order to protect the plate
from stones, the box is provided with iron
feet. The field of view under the plate
is illuminated by an electric incandescent
lamp, which is held by a bent arm. An
other lamp can be fixed in a short branon
tube starting from the box. This branch
which is Theoretically closed, is needed
because the moisture would condense on
the inner face OF the glass plate if this
were not carefully painted with pure vas
cline. To DO this, the box must be access
ible. Weights are required to overcome rho
hydrostatic pressure. That pressure rnigbt
crush the glass plate, and the water
rushing up, damage the lenses and tbe
