art and that all small vessels would be forced out of the way to make room for monsters of which tlis was only a type and forerunner.
 As is well known, these rosy antici- pations were not verified. The world was not ready for such ship CT human skill and means fen short of success. The big ship was not pay ing investment. It cost more to run 1t than it brought in, and It's speed was not what was confidently expected. In short, the much talked of wonder was a failure. It made a few voyages across the ocean with indifferent re- suits, and was utilized to some purpose in laying the submarine cables. but it gradually fell into discredit and was finally sold as old junk. It was really very much as if one should keep an elephant to cultivate garden.
 Of late years there has grown up tendency in this country to build large vessels and some of the latest approach very nearly the dimensions of the Great Eastern. A great deal has been learned and wonderful advances made in ship building within the last quarter of a century, as we'll as in everything else. Large vessels are no longer doubtful experiments, and it may be that such a ship may be constructed as the world has never seen, and 1t may further turn out that it will be a success and will accomplish all that its projectors claim for 1t. It is dangerous now to doubt any claim that may be made with regard to what man can do.
 On this subject, and connected with it in practice, it is interesting to note the continual strife and competition going on between inventors and manu- facturers of offensive and defensive attachments to war-ships. No sooner has one manufacturer completed an impenetrable armor-piate than another builds gun or projectile which will make hole in 1t. If one gets out an irrisistible ball or shell another rolls an armor-plate which will turn it. When shipbuilder covers the bottom of vessel with invulnerable plates, smother man invents a torpedo boat to blow it up and sink it. Thus it goes on, a continual struggle between the irrisistible and the immovable, and neither car become absolute. The early years of this new century will probably see the most powerful war vessels of all history, and will probably also see means to destroy them.

Why Wages Are Reduced,

Indianapolis Sentinel.
 The truth that a country injures it. seIt by shutting out or increasing the price of raw material is almost self evident, and it is equally clear that with higher-priced materials the only chance to reduce prices for competitive purposes must come through cutting NAKes.

where the annual encampment of

The resignation Of General Cur

does not come in the nature of
very great surprise. He leaves the
Guard with the regrets of the officers
all of whom like him. The selection
of his successor is causing some
speculation. Col. Smith of Fair
mont has been most prominently
mentioned in this connection. His
selection would be eminently proper
and would give great satisfaction to
the members of the Guard.
