A Skaters DARING

Few feats of skating have ever ex-
celled the exploit of one Of Napoleon's
officers performed shortly after the
fight TT Jena in 1906. The emperor
dispatched an officer to Marshal Nor
tier requiring him to seize certain i'm
portant towns without delay. When
the officer arrived at the mouth of the
Eibe. where the river is ~ miles wide
be was threatened with serious loss of
time. The river was just covered with
Ice, therefore to row over was out of
the question. He could not cross by
the nearest bridge without going 20
miles out of his way on roads heavy
with snow, and he grudged the time
that would thus be wasted. So he re-
solved to skate across the thin, freshly
formed ice Had he tried walking he
would have sunk at once. but by skim
ming along Cd his skates at the top of
his speed he got over the river both dry
and unframed. BY this daring if dan
gerOus deed he saved six hours, Gid
what Napoleon babe him do and won
great credit for his bold and clever ex-
plot.

A cable from Bloemfonuein says:
The text of a portion of the letter from
Piet De Wet. chairman of the peace
commission to his brother, Christian
De Wet. appealing to the latter to sur
render, published in the Post recently
is as follows:
Dear Brother hear you are so
angry that you have decided to kill me-
accusing me of high treason. May God
not allow you opportunity to shed more
innocent blood. When 1 saw we were
beaten by the British l wrote to the
president requesting him to consider
terms of peace, and rather to surrender
than to ruin the country and to starve
the people.
Il was with you afterwards for a
month, convincing me that it was bet
ter to lay down our arms. l did my
duty in the battle at Shietma and Prin-
sloo. 1 charged the guns when l was
shamefully left in the lurch by Frone-
man, who fed. Convinced that the
struggle was hopeless. 1 left with my
staff and surrendered and was sent to
Durham.
You and Steyn in carrying on a
guerrilla warfare caused me to write
to Kitchener November II, requesting
an opportunity to come to the Free
State and persuade the men to lay
down their arms, no Free State gov
eminent existing against whom could
commit treason. What is better, for
them to continue to struggle at the
risk, of total ruination as a nation, or
to submit?
Should the war continue a few
months longer the nation will become
so poor that it will become a work.
ing class and disappear as a nation.
Il have heard that you and others
accuse me of being paid by the English
government for what l am doing. 1
can only answer that there is a God
and he will pass righteous sentence.
The British are convinced that they
have conquered the land and the peo-
pie. and they consider the matter end
ed and are only trying to treat those
continuing the struggle magnanimous-
ly to prevent much bloodshed.
'.Burghers are outnumbered; can you
not see you are being deceived by the
Transvaal generals? What are they do
ing? They do not fight one-tenth part
as much as we. The Transvaal is not
so much ruined as is the Free State.
They are inclined to submit and are
only waiting to see what you are go
ing to do. The moment you surrender
fall or are captured, they will sur
render. l pray you again to consider
before you proceed further"

WONDERFUL NEW MOTOR
That Vastly Increases the Power of
Marine Engines.

The British admiralty has done well
IN naming its two new turbine driven
torpedo boat deStrOyerS the Viper and
the Cobra, for these two boats are de-
signed to take in the marine world the
places held by their reptilian name
Sakes among animals. The Viper,
which is completed. is the fastest boat
in the world and is capable of going at
the rate of 81 knots, or 43 miles. an
hour. This terrific speed is given to
the tiny boat by the $4,000 horsepower
developed by her turbine engines 1t is
confidently predicted that tho near flu
ture will see these turbine eaPines ap-
piled to larger vessels, and we shall
have transatlantic liners crossing the
ocean in four days or less.
The turbine engine is the invention
of the Hon. Charles A. Parsons, an
Englishman. 1t does away with the
Incorporating" motion whereby in the
ordinary engine the vertical motion of
the piston head is changed to the re-
vOlving motion of the propeller shafts.
In the turbine boats the steam is ap-
piled directly to a sort of water wheel
to which are affixed a great number of
vanes or blades. The propeller shafts,
which in the Viper are five in number,
are fixed directly on the turbine, thus
doing away with the "reciprocating''
motion and reducing the vibration of
the boat to a minimum.
Among the advantages claimed for
the compound steam turbine over the
ordinary engine are increased speed.
increased facilities for navigating shall
low waters, increased stability of YES
sci. reduced weight of machinery, di-
minished cost of maintenance of ma
chinery and largely reduced vibration.
The opponents of the turbine, who
are not very numerous, claim that it
requires an enormously greater amount
of fuel than an ordinary engine and
that the boat fitted with it requires a
very much greater time to reverse.
The latter is serious objection to its
use on warships. 1t is confidently pre-
dicted that these disadvantages will be
removed by improvements to the exist
ing forms of turbine engine.-Scientific

WILL MAINTAIN pHlLIpplNE ARMY.

1t is announced from Washington
that the army in the Philippines Is to be
maintained at the present strength for
another year-4O.00O men. This decisiofi
has been reached as result of the re-
newed activity of the insurgent forces
in Samar. an island of secondary size
near the outer center of the group. in
which some of the unreconcilables
found refuge from other islands and
stirred up additional strife. The hostil-
ity of the Samar islanders has never
been fully quelled, but it consists large
ly In guerrilla warfare without any con-
siderable force being involved. 1t is
enough. however to warrant the deter
mination to keep up the numbers and
efficiency of the army for any emergen-
cy that may arise. In the period be-
tween now and June 80, the terms of TO-
900 soldiers will expire, 50 that 1t will be
necessary to supply their places by re-
cruits from this country, or by re-enltst-
menus from IOFCeS III TIE lleio, III oAoSi
to keep up the numbers desired. 1t is
not believed that 1t will be difficult to
secure all the men needed for this serv-
ice. altho it Is not service without
danger. even tho there will be little
fighting to be done. The chief hazard in
army life is incurred thru danger to
health by change in climate and diet.
But by guarding health such hazard
need not be feared.
Since 1t is the avowed purpose of our
nation to establish peace and an effect
i've civil government in the islands 1t is
plainly our national duty to invoke all
the power necessary to accomplish the
work. and as we are maintaining, our
army at its present strength without
calling for increased taxation, there is
Sro reason fol curtailing the force need
ed chiefly for prudential effect.
This latest announcement indicates
that President Roosevelt approves the
policy of the previous administration in
regard to the Philippines and that
there will be no let up until our flag
floats peacefully in every desirable is
land in the group.

SHIP svILplNe AND SUBSIDIES.

The agitation of the question of grant
iIg ship subsidies by congress to en-
courage American ship building and
ownership makes a view Of the work
now going on in various national ship
Yards matter OF Importance Lloyd's
Register of Shipping shows that Great
Britain leads In the number of vessels
under construction at the close of the
quarter ending Sept. 80. this year, and
that the United States is second. At the
GATE mentioned All vessels of gross
tonnage OF l,414,1 100 tons We're being built
in Great Britain: in the United States
s,xty-four vessels OF go, 526 tons were
under construction. All other countries
were behind this country. Germany had
fifty-seven vessels and tonnage OF 1885,
SO. France had fifty-two vessels with

total tonnage of 64,ss7. Holland showed
3s,60s tons under construction. Norway
% q. 900 tons and Denmark 1875 Japan
had a total of only 1890 tons under

The figures for Great Britain are said
TO be the largest ever reported. 1t has
at present the inside track on such work,
tho there IS no reason why our nation
should not surpass 1t In time. OF the
total in Great Britain, 125 were to fill
foreign orders or for sale and $50 were
for ownership at home. Holland had
under construction 42,oso tons in Brit
sishs yards, or more than the total being
built in her own shipyards.
France has been paying subsidies and
set the above figures show that the
French shipyards are not doing SO much
as the American yards are. In fact an
other authority claims that American
ship builders were never SO busy as they
are at the present time. altho no subsi-
Gies are yet offered. They are limited
