The shipbuildIng ADVANCE

On the LIST of January this year there wers
262 vessels building or under contract in
American ship yards. Their value is no
less than SCI, 110,O92.
OF these nine are battleships. three cruisers
and forty-four other warships. some of them
building for Russia, some for Japan and the
rest for our own country.
There are 204 merchant vessels in the list,
aggregating 254, PIC tons and to cost $40, u.s.
900.
When we reflect upon the number of men to
whom, directly or indirectly. this great ship
building enterprise gives employment-the
men who dig ore, the men who smelt it, the
men who make it into steel. the men who
fashion it into plates, trusses and beams the
men who dig coal and the men who make il
into coke-there is reason for national re-
jocing in the figures that seem SO cold In
mere print.-New York World.

The Rev. John R. Hykes, who was sent

there were for the distribution of the Scrip

it he says:

French Military Slang.

= A very pretty idea Of the attitude of French
men toward the army may be gathered from
an inspection of the current slang. Thus,
the up-to-date Frenchman rarely uses the
word mauvais. He does not say thing is
bad. He merely adds to the substantive the
word "soldar, or some equivalent that ex-
presses the military idea. ''Viande soldat,
femme a soldat. tabac de cantine pain de
munition, drap de capote,' etc. are popular
phrases of contempt. The word .miitaire''
has much the same contemptuous meaning
Slang is sort OF national barometer and
these phrases are significant of that general
dislike for the army which has made a hero

include those directly employed in furnishing

CHAMPIONSHIP CRICKET.


The cricket season is almost at an end
now and Saturday will probably see the
last championship gam of the season OF
1899. The sport gained some little advan-
tage during the past summer, and it was
noticed that interest prung up in unex-
pected quarters and the leaders of the
sport hope for a more general enthusiasm
before many more seasons have run
themselves to a close.
In the Metropolitan District Cricket
League race Team A of the Knickerbock-
er Athletic Club is now in first place with
Team 3 Of that club a very close second.
So close, in fact, are the two teams that
the positions may yet be changed. Team
B played n game more than Team A
and lost 1t, SO that in spite of the fact
that it won one game more than Team A
its percentage ~relegates 1t to second place.
Manhattan, which was ooked upon with
some little fear early in the race, is in
third position.
Team A of Paterson has the Champions
