suit is greater economy.

an audience that was brilliant and numer-
ically large witnessed the initial perform
ance in Washington of Maude Adams in
Rostand's "L'Aigion," translated for the
American stage by Louis y. Parker The
presentation was one of uncommon beauty
and from every standpoint the perform
ance was notable success
Miss Adams was accorded a reception
that might well be termed an ovation The
play offers her many opportunities which
she takes advantage of to the best Of her
splendid abilities. In every case, except
a few in which her physical attachments
are at fault does she triumph. In her
quieter passages she is charming, and it
is only in such episodes as the mirror
scene and on the battlefield OF Wagram.

ENGLAND'S BIG WARSHIPS.
American EXPERTS FmII 10 Find
Merit in Proposed Vessels.


Merit in Proposed Vessels.
Announcement of Great Britain's purpose
to build three battieships OF 5000 tons
displacement each. and carrying heavier
batteries than are installed on any war
ships afoat, has caused considerable in
terest here among naval men. who are
surprised that such departure should
be made in increasing the size Of this
type of ship in view of recent declarations
that Great Britain's largest vessels here
after would not exceed p 500 tons
Admiral HichboTn. the Chief Constructor.
and others who have been associated with
the building of the new navy believe that
no special advantages can be secured in
such monster battlesEipS. and that the in
crease OF battery power viii not justify
The increased displacement. draft and en-
CINE power with no appreciable advance
in speed or defensive powers It IS as
sumed by the experts that ships Of $4,000
tons must draw not less than IS feet of
water. which would class them with the
great heavy draft vessels of the Italian
navy, found unSuited for any purpose ex-
cept coast defence work.
Captain Sigsbee, Admiral Melville and
other experts are rather inclined to con
denim any advance beyond 15.006 tons for a
battleship. Admiral Hichb born who has
looked up he question. finds that the pro-
posed vessels would not exceed present
battleships in speed or thickness of armor
and their only advantage would be their
I-S-inch guns The disadvantages put forth
by experts are the larger target they
would afcrd. enormous draft, which
would rerdar them impracticable for for
eigl service and increase of cost. They
would unCdestionably be the most power
ful fighters eXtant in the opinion of naval
men but their ability would be rather to
''stsld and take" than to run or seek the
enemy
