Ccts of it's farms and looms to Europe, Asia and Africa-a tax paid to for eigners by the producer. If this money could be kept at home it would add immensely to the national wealth. One thing alone puzzles the heads of the navy in this hour of gladsome expectation, and that is how to get officers and men to man the new yes sels. It has been suggested that the congress provide for additional cadet ships at Annapolis and establish new training schools for naval recruits. The ships already in commission ex- haust all available material in the line of trained commanders and exec utive officers, and unless the supply is speedily replenished we may. find our selves the possessors of mighty navy without crews. Secretary Long cyi- dently is puzzled by this condition of affairs, for unless congress comes to his relief he will find his department in a tight place few years hence.
 Having entered upon a colonial pol icy of some magnitude and assumed a place among the world powers, it be- comes the duty of our statesmen to provide the means, both in men and money, which shall enable us to car ry out our plans in way that will command the respect of the world and the confidence of the people.

workshop and practically all of the auXiliaries outside of the engineers department, and excepting capstan and steering gear, are to be driven electrically. The material of con struction will be the highest quality of steel. The main or upper deck, in be the only one upon which wood is to be laid. It is proposed to arrange all of the vessels so that they may be used as flagships.
 The six armored cruisers are to be called the West Virginia, Nebraska, California, Maryland, Colorado and South Dakota. Three will be sheathed and three unsheathed, but all will have the same general dimensions 502 feet in length and about 70 feet in width. Trial displacement is given as 13,S00 tons; mean draft at trial dis placement, 24 feet inches; extreme draft, full load. 26 feet inches; maximum indicated horse power, 23,0oO; total coal bunker capacity, 2,o0o tons; speed not less than 22 knots. The armament is to consist of four 45-caliber s-inch guns; IA 5o-caliber 6-inch guns; IS 5o-caliber 3-inch rapidfre sfg guns, and 30 smaller guns of various descriptions Each of the cruisers will be fitted as flagship and will have accommo- dations for s22 officers and men.
 An English writer has called the armored cruisers the eyes and ears of the feet. The ships planned by Ad- miral Hichborn will not only be eyes and ears, but fists as well. They are as effectively protected as any battle ship afoat and their great speed will give them advantages not possessed by the more heavily armed and slower ships of the first class.
 It is expected that the II warships will be ready for service within three years, or just in time to afford pro- lection to our budding merchant ma rine. The coming s6 months, it is predicted, will witness a remarkable revival in American ship building, and optimistic statesmen predict that ere long American merchandise will be carried to every port in American bottoms. The United States now pays enormous sums every year to British, German and French steam ship companies for carrying the prod.

BY THE LIGHT OF PEAT FIRES.

(Adapted from Brian J. Dunn'S By the Light of the Kiln-fire'' in Novem- Der Clay-Worker) By the peat fires long gone out We sit and our hearts ahunger For the joyful scenes and the glad
 some rOut
 When the world and our hearts
 were younger, When life. like the flush of the first
 clear flame.
 Was dream full of light and glory; And the greatest griefs that our
 hearts could name They borrowed from song and story By the light of the peat fires years ago Our life was a round of gladness And little we thought of the futures And it's little we dreamed of sad Ours was the world of the poets With hopes like the stars above us; And the shadows that danced in the
 circling beam Were fairy hosts to love us. By the light of the peat fire long gone
 by
 Our castles in Spain we builded; An, never were castles so fair and
 high
 And never so gaily gilded For their walls were set in cement of
 song, Its song with the peat fire blending, Till the sweetness flowed through our
 whole life long In stream that is never ending. By the light of the peat fires, years
 since dead. Came dreams that enticed the rover, And he followed the path where the
 fancy led
 Through its yistas of bloom and
 clover: Till the light was gone and his form
 bent low
 And his castles were sunk in sorrow, And he yearned in vain for the peat
 fires glow From the night of the lost to-mor-
 TOW. From the light of the peat fires, years
 long fled,
 Come back through the desert surg
 Ing, Bearing broken burdens of hopes long
 dead
 And sorrows that need no urging Oh life, like the flush of the peat
 fires flame,
 Was a dream when the heart was
 younger But the. deepest grief that the world
 can name Is the grief of an old hearts hunger

Masonic Ball Last ,Evening-Mr Lack

ey Meets With an Accident.
 The annual Masonic ball at the town hall last night was largely at tended by both young and old. As early as 8 o'clock dancers commenced to arrive. and from that time until o'clock this morning the town hall was scene of gayety. The hall was tastefully decorated by members of the lodge, who left no stone unturned which was in the path of success. The music, furnished by Fau1mann's or chestra. was fully up to the standard rendered by, this orchestra on previ- ous occasions. That this dance was a success, both financially and social 1y, goes without saying.
 An Accident.
 James Lackey met with a serious ac- cident yesterday morning. which causes him considerable pain. MT Lackey, who is an elderly man and unable to get around very we'll, was at the residence of H. s. Frost, where the men were engaged in cutting down large tree. When the tree fell a portion of it struck MT Lackey, break ing his leg. A doctor was called aud MT Lackey is now resting as comfort ably as possible.
 A number of men employed cutting ice for \. J. Munson at Echo lake left Tuesday noon and refused to work, owing to the fact that Mir Munson would not yield to their demand for more wages. The men had been work ing for $1.75 per day, but after a few of them had slipped into the water they thought the job worth $2 a day. MT Munson refused to pay it and thus they parted.
 One of the oldest trees in Watertown was cut down yesterday morning. The tree is over 100 years old and is an elm. Ar Frost. who owned the tree. and valued it very highly for the shade under it's spreading branches, was afraid it might fall some time and crush in the roof of his house. There are several cords of wood in the tree

bureau of construction the conviction that in spite of the valor of Yankee seamen and commanders they would be at d serious disadvantage in a war with a progressive nation, on account of the small number of effective ves- sels at their disposal.
 Since the close of the Spanish war events have so shaped themselves that the United States, for more than century an isolated nation, has sud- denly evolved into a world power, with interests, political and commer- cial, to defend in every portion of the globe. The president and his cabinet, although more than ever disposed to maintain friendly relations with the other powers, realized that the cause of peace is served best by being pre- pared for war, and impressed upon the congress the necessity of strengthening the navy, and both house and senate responded liberally to the wishes of the executive. From time to time appropriations were made for the building of powerful warships, but the most important contract, involving an expenditure of $50 1000, ,O0O, is now about to be let. It calls for the immediate construction of five battleships and six armored cruisers, comprising a tonnage more than the tonnage of the entire navy of the United States ten years ago, and the number of vessels concerned is greater than the number of battle ships and armored cruisers now in the service.
 In the course of a conversation with a naval officer it was learned that the designs for the new vessels, which will go far toward giving the United States supremacy at sea, were planned in every detail by Admiral Hichborn. chief of the bureau of naval construction and repairs, and his as- sociates and assistants, all of them members of the naval service. The designs call for three sheathed and coppered battleships carrying super imposed turrets. and two unsheathed battleships with quadrilateraI ar engagement of eight-inch turrets, both classes to have a speed of not 1cas than 19 knots. The three-sheathed vessels will be known as the Pennsyl- vania, Georgia and New Jersey; the

Especial Correspondence.1 ID EFORE the twentieth century is ID many years old, Americans will
 be able to point with pride to their navy. Ever since President Cleveland's first term of office, when MT. Whitney was secretary of the navy, the executive branch of the gov ernment has advocated the construc- tion of modern warships. President Harrison was in genuine sympathy with the spirit of progress evidenced by his predecessor, and President Me Kinley is helping along the good work. The Spanish-American war, although an unbrollen succession of victories for our navy, impressed upon the heads of the navy department and
