An imprcasi yc idea oi the great expense
u maintaining the new navy is conveyed
hy the detailed statement Of the cost oi
keeping in commission, during the past
year, the ships of the active navy. Tie
cruiser New York, flagship Of the North
Atlantic station, was the most ex pensive
ship on the list, ior it cost $47l, 1874 to
keep her in commission. Admiral
Dewcy's flagship, the Olympia, was not
lar behind, at a cost OF Si4S,574. The
Oregon was close up, and perhaps on ac-
count Of the remarkable cruise that was
made b. that ship, Si23, CG7 was spent in
keeping her going. The big battleship
Iowa, larger by 1000 tons than the Ore
eon, cost less to operate, her figure being
$!ol,l83. The Indiana cost $379,5l6,
and the brooklyn 1865 ,07s.

Liszt,s AGONY of sensitiveness.

'Liszt had already played a great
fantasia of his own and Beethoven q
| twenty enth sonata in the former
part of the concert After this latter
piece he gasped with emotion as took
his hand and thanked him for the di-
vine energy he had shed forth At last
/ had managed to pierce the crowd and
1 sat in the orchestra. My chair was on
the same board as Liszt's piano when
the final piece began. 1t was duet for
two instruments, beginning with Men
delssohn's Chants Sans Paroles and
proceeding to work of Liszt's. We
had already passed the delicious chime
of the Song Written In Gondola.
Gas the closing strains began saw
Liszt's countenance assume that agony
of expression, mingled with radiant
smiles of joy, which never saw on
any other human face; only in the
paintings of our Saviour by some of the
early masters His hands rushed over
the keys, the floor on which / sat shook
like a wire, and the whole audience
was wrapped in sound, when the hand
and frame of the artist gave way; he
tainted in the arms of the friend who
was turning over for him, and we bore
him out in a strong fit of Mysteries.
1.-THE effect Of this scene was really
dreadful The whole room sat breath
less with fear, until Hitler came for
ward and announced that Liszt was al
ready restored to consciousness and was
comparatively well again. AS handed
Nine. de Cicourt to her carriage we
both trembled like poplar leaves, and /
tremble scarcely less as I write. -

but he said nothing. Thought no more
of it until after / had gone home and
noticed the way in which the piano was
moved into my apartment on the fourth
floor. When the men drove up with
their cart, / asked them where the
hoisting machine was. One Of them
whistled, and the other one said it
would be there all right, and he winked
at the fellow with the puckered mouth.
"Then they opened kit of tools and
began taking that piano to pieces They
first removed the action, and one of the
men asked where he would take it,
meaning what floor. While he was gone
another man unscrewed the legs which
supported the keyboard. The third man
carried up the legs, and while he was
gone the first man returned and took
up the keyboard which the man with
the screwdriver had taken off. That left
the back and sides of the case and the
sounding board. They were not taken
apart. A fourth man was picked up and
given the job of assisting the three in
carrying up what remained Of the piano
All this was done in about 10 minutes
l had nothing to do except to look on.
AS the team moved away one of the
men called back. WEI II send that hoist
ing machine up later. Twenty years
ago my piano was delivered by safe
movers. They took half day to do it .

Professor Comstock Of Cornell In
Epeaking to his class on the trials Of
Fcisntists told this authentic tale of the
experience of professor Of invertebrate
zoology in sister institution, which
had better be left nameless.
Trichin@ in pork, the cause Of the
frfghtful disease trichinosis In human
consumers, give a peculiar appearance
to meat, which is studded with little
cysts. 1t Is then known to the trade as
''measly pork. The learned scientist,
wishing some for study, went to the
butcher and asked if he ever got any
measly pork.
Sometimes, said the butcher eau
tiously, "but always throw it away"
''Well, said the professor, "the next
time you have any wish you'd send
me up some, = meaning, of course, to his
laboratory.
The butcher stared at him, but said
he would. Three weeks passed. when
the professor, growing impatient. again
dropped in.
Haven't you found any measly pork
YETI"
"Why, yes" said the butcher. "I
sent up two pounds week ago"
A sickly grin broke over the pro-
fessor' face.
"Where did you send it? said he.
"Why, to your house, of course, said
the butcher. = Kansas City Times.
