Hawk and Viking.

The Hawk and the Viking are two very
small vessels. The Viking is the smallest
of the fleet, and with her very modest
draft of only eight and half feet, she will
be able to penetrate even the small streams
of the isthmus should American interests
demand protection along those banks. The
Viking has watcr-line length of 100 feet
and "A maximum beam of p, and her dis
placement is only 21S tons, 40 of which is
given over to coal. Her speed is II 81
knots an hour. Her battery will be pref
ty formidable one for small a craft
and will consist of three three-pounders,
three one-pounders and a pair of Colts
Size considered, she will be a veritabe
sptfire. and she is likely to render a very
effective account of herself should she ever
be put to serious effort.
The Hawk has a displacement of 375
tons, is 145 feet long. has a maximum
beam of % feet and draws IL feet 6 inches
of water when her bunkers are filed with
their 20 tons of coal. She has two quad
ruple-expansion engines and is capable of
doing IA 1-2 knots an hour. Her battery is
composed of two 6-pounders, two 1-pound-
ers and two Colts. Her complement will
be four officers and forty-six men.

The department has no intention of keep
ing these vessels constantly in commission
They are to be kept ''in ordinary i. e.,
they are to be maintained in perfect con-
dition, with skeleton crew aboard, their
bunkers filled and all stores in a conve-
nient storehouse SO that they can be placed
aboard within half a day after the receipt
of order to put to sea. By this means, the
ships will be virtually in commission while
at the same time, the cost of their serv-
ices will be materially reduced. 1t will be
an easy matter to fill their crews by SIM
ply drafting men from the receiving ships,
which always have men aboard to meet
sudden demands.
We have all learned to know how chroni-
cally our tropical neighbors are kept In
hot water by the apparently climatic
fever for revolution. and 1t will be a source
of comfort to our citizens and to our naval
officers to know that now we shall have a
speedy and efficient means of looking out
for our interests in those unsettled repub-
lies.
Even wider and greater usefulness is
likely to be the lot of these small vessels
than was that of the best of their good
service during the recent war.

Glass Broken By Singing.


1t has often been asserted that
glasses could be broken by singing.
The statement has as often been de-
MED, nevertheless it is true. Moreover,
the glass does not have to be Of the
finest Venetian kind.
An ordinary dinner table wineglass
was recently broken in this way. The
man who did it had deep, full voice.
He set the glass on the table, stood be-
side it and ran up and down the scale
as though in search Of a note. When
he settled on che rather high the glass
shook visibly. The note was repeated,
sung IS loudly as possible, and finally
the glass shivered and crashed into
bits. An ordinary voice could not ac-
cOmplish this, for afterwards an ex-
perimenter tried to repeat the scene,
without producing the slightest effect
on a variety Of glasses. However, it
would be a dangerous gift for general
use. Imagine a banquet when an
after-dinner speaker, in his impassi-
Oned Oratory CHANGED to strike the
note disliked by the table glasses.
What a crash there would bel-Chica-

MAUD AND JUDGE AGAIN.

Hand Mailer Jumped on her time-Eorn bike
For an evening hit at the dusty pike.
Ad old drop frame Of a way down gear
With rattle the sleeping dead could heart
The judge came pounding along behind,
Out airing his great Judicial mind.
He noted the figure neat and trim
And graceful motion Of hidden limb.
And he said.to himself in his grave delight:
''Whatsmatter with Maudie7 She's all right p
Re drew beside her and asked her fat
Why she rode such an old ice cart as that
And she said salssIady could III support
Such wheel as the judge Of the district court
He told her she could on a ehainless ride,
With diamond frame, If she'd Be his bride.
Or II she would bust up his solo life
They would tandem together as man and wife.
Maud bit at the bait like a hungry trout.
And the old judge smiled as he yanked her out
They ride on a tandem nov, Of course,
But Maud has 70 work ike treadnili hOrsel
For the Judge has learned how 70 sit and shirk
And let his darling do all the work.
He weighs two hundred and ffty-One.
But the poor girl thinks it an even ton!
And she often says with a pain-rent heart:
I wish I was back on my old ice cart7-'
OF ali true words that I ever spake,
The truest are these: Hes blOOmin' fake. .

a barber says a mans whiskers are
always cut down in his youth.
A true love knot is said to be the top
knot Of a lovers happiness.
Hope Is a bubble the unsuccessful
man blows and blows until it bursts.
The end man in a minstrel show can
tell joke as we'll as the next man.
There is something wrong with q
man who does not secretly love praise.
The man who gets a hearing in court
is apt to hear something he doesn't
like.
If money could only induce people to
be good, what a jolly world this would
be.
The man who considers himself all
wool and a yard wide evidently wants
to make himself felt.
Some women's love is limited to the
size Of a mans pOcketbOok and her
ability to handle the contents
It's simply impossible for a man to
love his neighbor as himself if he has
garden and his neighbOr has chicken.
The upward tendency Of the price of
beef makes it easy to believe that the
COW actually did jump over the moon.

ping horses while crossing a stream,
and the administration would make
the most Of that. Then to have the in

Applies To All.

The imperialists tell US that the
Declaration Of Independence does not
apply to savage races like the Filipines.
Well, if its principles do not apply to
such men as AguinaldO, who is a grad
uate Of the best European colleges,
then it does not apply to an ignorant
republican who hasn't sense enough to
read anything but a republican paper.
We believe, with Abraham Lincoln,
that it applys to every human being on
the face Of the earth.-Ex.

One Phase of the Trusts.

Mexican county, Pennsylvania, Illus
trates one Of the consequences Of the
trust movement. Three years ago
Hazlehurst was hamlet in the lumber
district. 1t had natural gas and the
raw materials that are utilized for the
making Of glass. Two large glass fac
tories, employing 200 men, were started.
Hazelhurst doomed Within two years
the population had reached 1900. A
prosperous newspaper, fine stores, a
system of waterworks, and all the &C
cessOries Of a flourishing industrial
centre clustered at Hazelhurst. The
glass factories were making big money,
and capital was seeking investment IN
the place.
Then the glass trust reached out and
absorbed the two glass factories. The
sequel is told by the Bradford Post:
Yesterday the Hazelhurst and Brad
ford Glass companies lat Hazelhurst)
discharged all their workmen until
further notice. There were about 25O
men assembled in the town preparatory
to 60 to work, the greater part Of them
having been notified by letters from
the compsny's officials to be on hand
at stated time. The Posts informant
describes the condition Of business in
HazelhUTst as truly lamentable, there
being positively nothing doing. The
merchants and citizens are all discOur-
aged and can see no possible way out
Of the present dilema. Merchants have
trusted out large quantities Of goods
to men who we're expecting to go to
work at the glass plants and are them
selves owing the wholesale houses for
the same. The whole town, with, Of
course, the exception Of the factory
owners, is fat broke and the outlook is
a most serious one. A number Of the
men yesterday sued the companies for
their car fare to and from their homes,
together with their wages for the time
they worked. The merging Of these
companies into the combine has re-
suited, Of course, in great pecuniary
benefit to the owners, but has created
much misery to all others concerned,
and yet there are people that viii argue
that trusts are benefit to the country.
All those who believe in such nonsense
should take a trip to Hazelhurst, and
they would soon be convinced Is to
the error Of their ways.
This is a phase of the trust cues
ton which viii not disturb those who
see in the combinations only an agency
for the more perfect organization Of
our industrial life. They will tell
Hazelhurst that some must suffer in
any period Of transitiOn-that there
must be losses at special points for the
sake Of a large general gain. But the
people Of Hszelhurst, like the army Of
commercial drummers thrown out Of
employment by this same movement
for a more perfect organization, cannot
be expected to be so philosophical.
They realize that they are the victims
Of those greater economies about which
so much is heard. And they, in com
mon with the rest Of Us are waiting to
see that comprehensive reduction Of
prices that ought to 60 hand in hand
with the economies"
