Armor Plate Provings.

From the American Manufacturer.
The Carnegie Company has notified
the Navy Department that it has COM
pleted the first lot of 6-inch Krupp
plate under the contract entered into
last winter, and is ready to have 1t
tested. The test will be made at In
dian Head as soon as arrangements
can be made. 1t will consist of three
rounds fired from a 6-inch rifle at a
velocity of about 1850 feet per second.
The penetration ought not to exceed
one and half or two inches.
The chief object of the manufacture
ers is to produce plate with a face
so hard as to prevent penetration, and
a back so soft that the plate will not
crack. This will be the first test of
Carnegie Krupp plate made for an
American vessel. All the Krupp armor
heretofore made by either of the two
companies was for the Russian ships
the Variag and the Retvizan, built by
the Cramps. The plates made for
those ships stood excellent tests, the
best in the world, in fact.
The Bethlehem company had a 6-inch
plate designed for the Maine tested
some time ago, but a local crack
which necessitated another test, was
developed That is the only bad luck
either company has yet experienced in
making Krupp armor. There is great
interest in the test that is soon to be
made. The plates will be used on
either the Missouri or the Ohio, sister
ships, the former under construction
at Newport News and the latter al
San Francisco.

DIED of HYDRoPHOBIA.

Walton News and Messenger: Lit
tie Florence, the 7-year-old daughter
of Sheriff and Mrs. E. c. Arnold, died
of hydrophobia in this city Sunday aft
ernon at $3.50 O'Clock. She was bitten
about five weeks ago by a dog which,
at the time, acted suspiciously, but
was not believed to be mad. Saturday
morning she began to show evidences
of hydrophobia and a specialist from
Atlanta was secured at once, who, in
consultation with the child's grand
father, DR.. N. L. Galloway, pronounced
1t a typical case. The child, before be-
coming violently mad, began to jerk
back and to act alarmingly when any
one would mention water to her.

A VALUABLE FORAGE CROP.

Farmers of the Orlando section are
now engaged in gathering beggarweed
for hay. The acreage is double that
of any former year, and the growth
is in all ways satisfactory. When cut
at this time it will make a second crop
later on. For a week the weather has
been specially favorable for curing and
saving the crop. Earlier the frequent
rains caused a great loss, after the
crop had been cut in the fields. Beg
garweed will not stand rain after il
has been cut. 1t spoils easily. OF
late number of thoughtful farmers
have been studying ways and means
to avoid this loss, as it must be one
which will always stand in the way OF
saving of this crop until some differ
ent methods are devised. Beggarweed
is at its best for hay just in the hight
of the rainy season. There are those
who believe that silos can be used
successfully for the purpose. If so,
the green forage could be put away as
soon as cut. If all could be saved,
there is probably no crop known TO
American farmers which would yield
as large quantity of valuable forage
to the acre as this native Florida plant
and two full cuttings could be secured
each year.

"HUGGING MoLLIEs."

Pensacola News; 1t seems as if the
"Hugging Mollies" have been captured,
for in Police Court to-day George
Apostle and Chas. Gordon, two widely
known white boys, pleaded guilty to
having masqueraded in female attire
for the purpose of soaring some boys"
They were each sentenced to thirty
days in the city Jail and were given
a lecture by the Mayor. The boys
were caught last night by Mr.. ~Chas
Johnson and City Clerk Jones near
Christ Church. They were chased for
some distance before being over-taken.
Mr.. Johnson said Mr.. Jones was about
frightened to death, while the latter
says the same thing of Mr.. Johnson
Both gentlemen are known to be of
undoubted veracity and the claims OF
each must necessarily be accepted
without the least degree of doubt.

south Carolina Cotton.

Columbia, Sept 1S.-Cotton opened
fast during the past week, except along
the northern border counties. and some
opened prematurely owing to rust that
has increased rapidly. The hot wealth
err induced shedding. and stopped
growth of young cotton. The crop is
reported in a less favorable condition
than it was a few weeks ago. and is
not as heavily fruited as it promised to
be. Boil worms have appeared in many
sections and have caused much injury.
Sea island cotton improved during the
week Picking has made fair progress,
although little has as yet been ginned.

MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
Local and General News of Ships
and shipping.

The forecasts for high winds and
possibly a storm on the coast Kept
captains of vessels on their guard all
yesterday. Toward night few of them
became apprehensive and threw out
extra lines to have in case of emer-
gency. There is less reason for danger
in the harbor from a storm than there
was a few months ago. The large
amount of new wharf work done since
the establishing of new harbor lines
gives solid wharves to tie to. At
nearly all the docks about the city
new piles have been driven, and with
the substantial construction there YES
sells with enough strong lines will be
in comparative safety in an ordinary
blow.
Owing to the weather predictions
vessels now ready to proceed remain
in port, and will do so until all dan,
ger passes. While the predictions do
not indicate any disturbance at sea,
the interior disturbances are apt to
swing out, and it is to be on the safe
side that vessels remain in port

that work on the new steamer Thos.
A. Edison, which is being built by S.
j. Johnson, at Apalachicola, Fla, for
Menge Bros, for the Fort Myers and
Thompson run, is progressing rapidly.
The hull Is now completed, the ma
chinery is on hand and will be put in
place at once, and it is expected that
the new steamer will be ready for this
Caloosahatchee by the middle of Octo-
Der. The Edison is to be 80 feet In
length, "a feet in width with a draft
of 16 inches. She will have two decks,
the upper deck being fitted especially
for passengers, and will have twelve
state rooms, six on each side with a
wide passageway between, and also
plenty of room forward for passengers.
Her engines will be 7hx36 inches,
which are expected to drive her at a
speed of at least ten miles an hour,
and possibly as fast as twelve or four
teen miles an hour Her boilers will de-
velop $50 pounds of steam pressure.
Her carrying capacity will be sixty
tons. The Press adds: IF there is
anything in a name the Thos. A. Edi-
son should be a wonder. She is just
what has been needed on the Caloosa-
hatchie river, and her excellent pas
senger accommodations will tempt
hundreds to make the trip up this
river, who have never before done So
There is no more enjoyable and beau
