Our System of Naming Battleships.

The only system the country hos
ever had in naming battleships was ill.,
troduced when in Cleveland's first adj
ministration it was enacted that battle.
ships should be called after States and
cruisers after cities. Secretary Whit.
new gave names to the first ships to
which the act applied, and the first
were the Maine and the Texas. In order
to forestall appeals to name them after
one State and another he arbitrarily
chose the names of the northernmost
and southernmost coast States, thus
disarming criticism. The first cruisers
of the new navy had come few years
earlier, and Mr.. Whitney named them
on similar principle the Atlanta,
Boston and Chicago. The alphabet
cal plan, however, was soon after
abandoned. Monitors had during the
sixties been given Indian names, such
as the Mahopac, Passaic, Montauk, M.
liant and others, most of which are
now in commission for coast defense,
The only modern and formidable mon
itor having an Indian name is the
Miantonomoh, and it is not likely
there will be any more. New Yorl

Sport as a Developer of Character.

Every now and then there crops
out in this republic the notion that if
our more cultured citizens were our
rulers we should be much better
off. We very much doubt it. If our
more manly citizens could rule US,
then, no doubt, we should be much
better off. But there is o freakiness
and fnicalness, an inability to give
and take, general rubbing and creak-
ing of machinery amongst men devel-
opsd only on one side Of the mind,
which always, everywhere, makes
them Objectionable as rulers. Boxing
is just as liable to make man meek
as books, but if you have a bully to
deal with neither the boxing nor the
books will avail anything, and he be-
comes almost more Objectionable as
an editor than as a prize fighter. OF
course sport will fail, just as every
other agency will fail, with certain
men. On the other hand, for the great
majority of men, well-conducted sport
will teach them fortitude, gentleness,
meekness, and fair play, as no Other
agency yet invented by man can do
1t was no mere epigram of the lror
Duke about the playing fields OF Etor
and Waterloo. There was a direc
connection, just as there is a direct
connection between that hardy, plain
living family of Deweys from Yer
mont and Manila. Somehow or 9th
er, if the mind alone is trained, there
| is an unsteadiness about the man. l
is necessary-let the psychologists tel
us why-to make the body gentle, tt
make the body hardy, to make tn
body true and clean, in order to max
and keep the mind gentle, hardy, tru
and clean.-Outing.

Although an invalid and unable to
minister to the wants of the soldiers
in camp where she was, she remained
with her husband until the fall of 1864.
She saw more of the mighty events in
American history. She heard the can
nonading of the Mississippi and the
crash of musketry in the dozen
skirmishes that led up to the taking Of
Vicksburg. She was close to the bat
tie of Champion Hill, where General
Grants army defeated Pemberton and
his Confederate forces. She was with
the Seventeenth Illinois when it adj
vanced with Grant toward Vicksburg.
