II Is interesting to know the modern
methods of banishing mans common
enemy, insomnia. 1t is doubly interest
Ing to learn of the ways by which
women court the sweet restOrer." The
revelations made upon this subject by
the members Of a wOmans club are
interesting and unique, and the fact
that these ladies invite sleep by per
uniting their thoughts to dwell upon
clothes does not prove that such sub
jects are uppermOst in n wOman's
mind, but simply that they are the
was thinking about clothes when he
said that 1t was the Office Of sleep &c
"knit up the raveled sleeve OF care"
OF course this method of wOOing
sleep is suitable to but one sex. and
no one would be foolish enough to sug-
gest that man could frighten away
insomnia by thinking of his wife's
wardrobe or by mentally hanging up
the various articles which have haunt
ed his wide-awake faculties in the form
Of that enemy of sleep. a bill. One
distinguished man, the Poet Words
worth. thus described his conflict with
balmy sleep:
A flock Of sheep that leisurely pass by.
One after one; the sound of rain, and
bees
Murmuring; the fall of rivers, winds
and seas.
Smooth fields, white sheets Of water, and
pure sky,
BY turns have all been thought Of yet

Sleepless.
This would seem to point to the fact
that mans thoughts dwell upon i'm
personal things when he is inviting
sleep, while a wOman's turns to per
sonal vanlties But mans vanities
are Of so disturbing a kind that he
dare not think about them. SO let him
think of sheep.

A complete list Of the things named
In honor of Queen Victoria would not
only show the esteem in which she was
held. but would also suggest how much
Of the worlds progress had taken place
during the period covered by her reign.
The great Australian state bearing her
name recalls the hlstory-making devel-
opments in that quarter Of the globe;
the Victorian triumphs Of exploration
are typlfed by the discovery OF great
Lakes In Central Africa, one OF which
commentaries her name. The famous
bridge AT Montreal. the beautiful park
on the Canadian side OF Niagara Falls
and some at least Of the sixteen Vic
torias in the United States, are among
the interesting North American memo

sovereign to possess a name not identi-
fed with anybody else. for then the
things named in her honor will indicate
TO all the future about the time In the
history when they came into being.

A notable evidence Of the progress OF
newspaper advertising has been pro
vided by the book publishers. Until
recently these publishers, like some 9th
er business men, considered that t was
essential TO their dignity to avoid any
thing striking in the wording and the
type CT their advertisements, and in
deed, to advertise only in a very lin
tied way. All the publishers and some
bankers, insurance men and others
have discovered that to do the largest
amount Of business 1t is necessary TO
do large amount of newspaper adver-
Using, and to word their ads" so as to
arrest attention.

SCHLEY WAS EXCITED.
During Bombardment of the
Colon, Potts Testified
at Inquiry.
ORDER OF LONG TO SAMPSON,
In Which He Was Admonished
Against Exposure of American Yes
sells to Fire Of Strongly Fortified
Ports, to Figure In Testimony.

Washington. Oct. 10.-In the
Schlev naval court of inquiry Lieuten-
ant Mark T.. Bristol completed his
testimony, begun Tuesday, and three
new witnesses were introduced. They
were Rear Admiral Henry G.. Taylor,
who as captain commanded the bat
tleship Indiana during the war with
gpain, Lieutenant Commander Temp
lin NJ Potts. who was navigator OK
the battleship Massachusetts during
that period. and Lieutenant EDWARD
f. Leiper, who was on the New Or
leans during the war, the last named
being still on the stand when the
court adjourned until today.
Admiral Taylor related incidents OF
the battle off Santiago, July 3, includ-
ing the Brooklyn's famous turn. He
said that none of the Spanish ships
had made any effort to ram the Amer
lean vessels when they came out OF
the harbor at Santiago.
Commander Potts testimony dealt
especially with the bombardment OF
the Colon Answering a question
from Judge Advocate Lemly as to the
conduct of Commodore Schley during
that engagement, he said it was that
CT man laboring under great mental
excitement and OF man who was
anxious to discharge as soon as pos
sible a disagreeable duty.
Lieutenant Leiper expressed the
opinion that the Spanish shore bat
teries at Santiago had not been at any
time formidable.
Accusation Against Schley.
During Commander Potts exanina-
ton Mr.. Rayner secured permission
from the court to introduce BIS evil
dence the order of Secretary Long to
Admiral Sampson, dated April 6, IN
which he was admonished against the
exposure of the American vessels to
the fire of strongly fortified ports
The paragraph in that order which
he especially wished to have eonsid-
cred reads as follows:
1.-THE department does not wish the
vessels of your squadron to be ex-
posed to the FIRE of the batteries at
Havana, Santiago de Cuba or other
strongly fortified ports in Cuba, I'M
less the more formidable Spanish yes
sells should take refuge within those
harbors. Even in this case the de-
nartment would suggest that a rigid
blockade and employment of our tor
pedo boats might accomplish the de-
sired object, viz: The destruction Of
the enemy's vessels, without subject
ing unnecessarily our own men Of
war to the fire of the land batteries. 4"
This dispatch also contains the fol-
lowing order:
THE department further desires
that in case of war you will maintain
a strict blockade of Cuba, particularly
at the port of Havana Matanzas, and
II possible, OF Santiago de Cuba, Man
zanillo and Cienfuegos."
