litical Campaign.

Their IIxncrlence,

that appeared on the barn of John Farson,
one of its millionaire residents. The barn
is one of the new circular buildings Of

great elegance, and the writing on tho
wall took the shape of this announcement,
"Tho Home of Experience.

body who read that sign. At last q dele

There was good laugh all around
when Mr. Farson answered in his custom.

Italian Naval Reform.

Admiral Palumbo, the new Italian min
lister of marine, has decided to strike from
tho list of the active fleet all the ships
which, during tho next naval maneuvcrs,
show n speed inferior to that laid down
by the navy regulations In addition,
every effort is being made to promote
economy in the construction of battleships
wherever such economy can DO effected
without loss of power. For instance, in
stead of paneling officers cabins and sa-
looms with expensive woods. simpler ma
terial will DO employed. Tho older IRON
clads, like tho Dandolo and the Duilio,
will be examined and rcfltted wherever
necessary. Besides all this, tho German
firm Of Schicau has been commissioned to
build four torpedo boat destroyers, one of
which will have speed of 30 and the
other Of BE- knots.
