Queen victoria's new yacht, which
now being fitted for use, is the biggest
and finest yacht af1oat. 1t is peculiarly
fitting that Britannia, which claims to
rule the waves, should provide for its
sovereign such a craft.
Beside the new Victoria and Albert
the German emperor's cruiser yacht
Hohenzollern appears somewhat in
significant. Even William K. Wander
bits floating palace, the Valiant. which
until recently was the biggest private
pleasure craft afioat, Is dwarfed when
compared with the stately big ship
which will be used perhaps once a year
to take England's aged sovereign on
short trips.
The launching of the new royal yacht
took place at the Pembroke dock in
South Wales n was a brilliant affair.
The Duchess of York stood sponsor for
the vessel, driving the last riyet and
breaking the customary bottle of wine
on the bow as she cut the cord which
let the yacht slide down the ways.
The new Victoria and Albert Is the
third royal yacht of that name which
has been launched during the reign of
the queen. When finished. the total
cost will be nearly $4,000, 900. Although
Queen Victoria may never use the new
boat, the Prince of Wales will doubt
less appreciate the fine craft which will
some day be at his disposal.
The size of the. queens new yacht may
best be appreciated by comparing her
with some of our warships. She is much
larger than the Baltimore or any Of our
cruisers and is of greater length. though
of lesser beam, han the largest Of our
new battleships.
Her length between perpendiculars Is
$50 feet; length over all, 439 feet;
breadth, so feet; mean draft Of water
under normal conditions of loading, Is
feet; displacement, 400 tons; maxi
mum indicated horsepower, 1900.
The vessel will be propelled by twin
screws driven by two inverted vertical
cylinder engines, each engine having
four cylinders and being placed in a
separate water tight compartment.
The electric installation will be of a
special character. 1t will provide not
only for electric lighting of the interior,
but for other applications of electrical
power, including the working of lifts.

tne boots and trousers more assertive,
the hat. tie. collar, vest and jacket, all
are so near like those of mere men that
n might well be excused for mistak-
ing a young lady for her younger
brother.
The latest of the habits has a touch Of
cavalry about it somewhere. The hats
are often almost exactly like those of
the famous rough riders, only perhaps
not quite so large or wide Of brim.
Black is not de rigueur. I have seen
brown. dark gray. dark green and dust
colored habits.
I saw one made of heavy crash in
natural color. The basque was very
short on the hips. slightly pointed in
front and had a cunning little postil-
ion in the back. Round linen covered
buttons closed the front and were also
sewed upon the position and three on
each sleeve.
This short position basque was the
favorite model for almost every habit
basque I saw. There are regular coat
lapels and collars, leaving the front
open to show the white chemisette and
collar and tn This tie may be a Teck,
an Ascot, q four-in-hand or a simple
string tie, but it must have the mascu-
line touch and severity. No softness,
no feminine grace, is allowed on horse
back.
Reading recently Of the death Of the
unhappy Empress Eugene, l was re-
minded of a habit she wore while on a
visit to Turkey. The sultan a had
four horses, each Of a different color,
trained by men wearing long dresses
which tapped around their feet, so that
they should become accustomed to the
sidesaddle and the long habit, as in
Turkey women. except possibly a few
English residents, did not ride horse
back, and he did not wish to take any
risks.

The young man who had for months
loved her in secret saw his chance. Ev-
cry time he had ever attempted to say
anything sentimental to her she switched
him off on to politics or the social prob
lem, but at last the moment for which he
had longed had come. Drawing in a full
breadth, he replied:
mo! How could the world degenerate
with woman doing SO much to run it?
How could the world be otherwise than
better since you have interested yourself
in it?'

no chances of losing it. A campaign
of education should be begun at once

dice exists against the school can be

A new theory has been advanced in
regard to fruit and melon growing:
honey bees are necessary to their
success, The bees in drawing the
honey from the flowers, fertilize them
and the bearing Of fruit is increased.
Before bees were introduced at Rock

since the bees have been introduced
the melons have become renowned

ing. We are confident the program
will be very credtably carried out,
judging from the one given two weeks
ago. 1t is hoped there will be good
attendance of those invited

The program carried out by the lit
crary club last Friday evening was
anything but an interesting and en-
tertalning one, in most respects, and
the manner in which few of the
sclf-appointod members saw fit to
conduct themselves very much dis
gusted those who went there with the
true literary split and with the hope
of getting some benefit from the
meeting. Tue preceding programs
were creditable in every way, and it
is hoped that the one carried out
Friday evening will be the only ex.
ception to the rule The students
should attend these meetings for the
express purpose of developing their
powers along that line, and those who
are not congnizlnt OF the fact that
that society was not organized to do
kindergarten work, would better re-
main away from the meetings and
give those who 90 there with a good
motive and an honest purpose a
chance to improve The report of
the critic, Miss Hannahs, for that
evening, was n merited and timely re-
buke for such conduct, and no doubt
will result in radical departure from
the kind of program last given This
criticism by us is made, not in die
talorial spirit or presumptuous mood,
but in all kindness and for tile sake
of the student body The next meet
ing will be held Friday, Dee 1st.
