A PRETTY ROMANCE.
Naval Lieutenant Given Three Days
In Which to Get Married.
Demands of the War Separate Him
from His Young Bride, but
with Peace Comes .
Happy Reunion.

A pretty romance is woven about
the courtship and marriage of Lieut..
and Mrs. William p. Miller, now on
Their way to Honolulu, where the OFF,
Ger las been assigned to the position
of fhe lieutenant of the Pacific squad
ron. Early in March Lieut.. Miller was
with Dewey at Hong-Kong. He was
engaged to The daughter of Command
er Bowman II. McCalla, and some
what long engagement was regarded
as one of the probabilities. Suddenly
the young Lieutenant was ordered
home.
When he reached San Francisco Mil
Ter fond war was likely to be declared
at any moment. Hurrying across the
continent the sailor reported at the
navy department and asked for 80
davs' leave of absence. He had al
ready write. his fiancee asking her
consent to a marriage during his fur.
Tough. The young lieutenant's dismay
can be imagined when he was told he
could have just three days.
why, but am going to be married,
the lieutenant.
THAT can be done in one day, which
will leave two days for the honey
moon" was the answer.
Miller rushed to the telegraph of
5 fee and sent message whose tenor
was:
Only got three days leave; meet me at
Hampton Roads: be married tomorrow.
The bride-elect was at the TRUSTING
place duly chaperoned, and the we'd
ding took place. When the three days
were up Lieut.. Miller was pacing the
quarterback of the gun boat Oneida,
then stationed at Mobile, Ala. He
had been appointed to its command,
and, leaving his bride of a day behind,
had gone to fight the battles of his
country. The other morning the re-
united couple left South Chicago for
San Francisco.

HAVE AN EYE TO BUSINESS.
Newport News People Want the Dss
partment to Change Battle
ship Plans.

The citizens of Newport News have
been inspired with the commercial
spirit by the successful laun ching Of
the battleship Illinois. That event at
tracted the largest crowd ever known
in Newport News, and the citizens are
now trying to induce the navy depart
ment to relet the new battleships to
be built, giving the Newport News
Shipbuilding company the Ohio in
stead of the Missouri, and have the lat
ter allotted to the Union iron works
at San Francisco. The allotments now
are just the reverse, the Missouri go
ing to the Newport News company and
the Ohio to the Union iron works. The
Newport News people believe that
Ohio would turn out another crowd
like that from Illinois to witness the
launching of battleship named for
their state, and they have not the
same confidence in the Missouri peo-
pie. 1t is doubtful, however, that the
change will be made.

BIG TRADE WITH CHINA
double That of Germany and Second
Only to That of Great
Britain.

Special reports from United States
Consul johnson at Annoy and Consul
Fowler at Chefon show an enormous
lncrease of the foreign trade of China
and point out the great value of that
part of it originating in the United
States, Last year the volume of the
trade exceeded that for 1896 by o.
100000 taels, total being reckoned at
1919 cents. The value of the United
States trade in China represented 10
per cent. of the total, being more than
double the whole German trade and
second only to Great Britain. AS Con-
sui Fowler puts it: 1.-THE value of
United States exports to China is
greater than that of all continental
Europe and the Russians, European
and Asiatic,H His figures show that
last year this excess amounted to
s3sA.aas1. But these figures, he says,
ere entirely too email, for owing to the
Chinese method of keeping treasury
statistics large proportion of the
goods coming from the United States
are entered as from other countries.
Consul johnson says that kerosene no
longer holds first place in the exports
from he United States to China. Cot,
ton goo1s is the most valuable'line of
trade, and 40 per cent. of the exports
of the cotton from the United States
went to China last year, the value be-
ing over $7,000,000.

FAST TURBINE" BOAT.
Contract Made by n british Firm with

report that the builders of the won.

at the British naval review by her ex-

horse power. They are guaranteed
to make at lie asst IS knots per hour, but
as they are twice the length, six times

interesting to see how far they will
