LIFE ON A BATTLESHIP.
No Holiday Excursion, Says an Old
 Mariner Who Knows.


 From the New Orleans Time s-Democrat.
 Life on a battleship Is no holiday ex- cuI sion," said an old mariner who knows a thing or two about guns ond things of that sort, and the young man who would pick out this kind of a life with the idea that 1t would be one grand, sweet round of pleasure would miss the mark.
 No doubt there are many young men who are extremely anxious to be aboaru one of these battle ships when the guns unllmber, but l am inclined to think that just one experience would be enough Tor the average young man. Now l do not belong to this branch of Uncle Sam's fighting force, but my experience has taught me many things while at sea, and I know something about these big guns. Take these thirteen-inch guns now in use On the big battle ships. When these guns are fired there is something going on. It is awful. No man can stand to be near them without an appeal to protection of some sort. In the first place the men are forced to fill their ears with cotton. One young gentleman from Annapolis failed to do this on che oco oasion, and he has not been able to hear anything since The mere fact that the gun decks are bolted down ought to give some idea of the amount of force involved in the dis
 
 firg of the ears with cotton is absolutely necessary. The discharge of a thirteen inch gun creates a tremendous vacuum. It literally pulls~all the air out of the Ca b or men v,ho are close to the gun. Here is where the denger comes in. The reactionary force is something terrific, end unless the ear is protected by the use of cotton the air would rush back into tne ear with such force that the drum would be In danger of serious and permanent jury. The drum of the ear could not stand the quick but violent return of the air. Hence the use of cot ton has been resorted to while firing these big guns. There Is an instance on record where the rushing or the air into the vacuum caused by the discharge of one of these guns ws 8 so forceful that 1t broke the lock of a door near by, which had been carelessly left closed-for the men usually take the precaution to open the doors on occasion of this kind. Stsnding near a thirteen-inch gun when it Is in operation would cure the naval ambition of many young men, I am sure, and 1t would probably convince men who are much older in the ways of the world that the men who represent the sea fighting force Of the United States gov ernment have no easy time.'

TENNENT LOMAX
 CRITICALLY ILL
His Recovery From Operation is Considered Very Uncertain.
IS NOW IN NEW ORLEANS
Rumor on Streets of Montgomery That Mir. Lomax Was Dead Proved FaIse-One of Ala
 bamas Noted Sons.

Montgomery August -(SpeciaD-This city has been very anxious today on ac- count of the rumor that the Hon. Tennent Lomax was dead. The rumor however, proved to be false when hunted down.
 MT. Lomax went to New Orleans and there had a very serious operation per formed. He seems to have stood the op- eration very well and 1t was the hope that in a short time he would be able to return home and be ready to join the party which left here for San Francisco to attend the biennial conclaye, Knights of Pythias. He is scheduled for next to the highest place In the supreme lodge, that of supreme vice-chancellor. On yes terday his case took a turn for the worse and he is now thought to be in a very serious condition It Is feared that his recovery is very uncertain.
 His mother has been with him in New Orleans all the while and Is still there.
 Tennent Lomax, solicitor for Montgom- cry county was born in Montgomery, Ala, April 2s, 1858. and educated in the University of Alabama, graduating in the academic course in 1878, and in the law department in 1879. He was admitted to the bar in July 1879. and at once com menced to practice law in Montgomery, forming a partnership with Judge John R. Tyson in 1888 which continued until the latter was elected circuit judge in August, 1892 MT. Lomax was assistant solicitor of the Montgomery district from 1880 to 1886 when Montgomery county was made @ separate district and MT. Lomax was in 1886 elected solicitor and has held the place ever since In 1888 he was a dele gate to the national democratic convep- tion and was secretary of the democratic state committee for ten years beginning with 1873. He is one of the highest mem bers of the Knights of Pythias, mem- Der of the I. O. R. M. and the Ellks. He is noted for his brilliancy and intellect.

STEAMERS COLLIDE
 AND ONE GOES DOWN
THREE PERSONS ARE KILLED AND OTHERS INJURED-THERE WAS NO FOG WHATEVER AND THE NIGHT WAS CLEAR.

Cleveland, O., August 5.-As a result of a collision on Lake Erie between the steamer Venice. ore-laden and the Seguin steam lumber loaded vessel off Ron deau, Canada, last night the former ves- sel was sunk and three lives lost while several other persons were more or less seriously injured. The dead:
 Peter Slmondson, fireman, Brooklyn.
 Thomas Flanigan, deck hand, Buffalo.
 George Weir, watchman, residence un- known.
 Injured: John Sullivan, Chicago, prob ably will die; J. A. McDougal, Cheboy- gan, Mich.. chief engineer City of Venice. Louis Hubecker Cheboygan, Mich.
 The cause of the collision is not known. There was no fog whatever and the lights of the City of Venice were burn ing brightly. To this the crews and pas sengers all testify saying they could see the lights on the Venice as she was sink ing. The second mate of the Seguin, c. A Lavang, who was on watch refuses absolutely to give any information re- gar ding the way the accident happened.
 It was shortly after midnight when the accident happened. The Venice was bound for Buffalo while the Seguin was going north of Perry sound to Ogdensburg. On board the Seguin all were asleep save the second mate and the watcnman, who was with him in the pilot house. The first mate of the Venice, Sullivan, was on watch aboard the boat that went down. The first that was known that anything had happened was terrible crash which brought both boats almost to a stand still. The Seguin had struck the Venice fairly amidship and plowed her way half through the boat The crew and passen- gers aboard both boats heard a tearing of timbers mingled with calls for help from those already on deck. And those who were sleeping rushed out on deck and there was a frightful panic for a time. The Venice, which had been split in twain, was sinking rapidly.
 Captain Broderick of the boat ran on deck in his sleeping robes and immediate ly called to the men to man the life boats. The members of the crew who had not been hurt rushed to his assistance and in five minutes they had the boats in the water. Several men. fearing the ship would sink before they had an op- portunity to escape, threw themselves overheard. They were later picked up by the life boats from the Seguin. The City of Venice went down in very deep water in less than fifteen minutes after the col lision occurred. After standing by for an hour the Seguin headed for Cleveland with the survivors, arriving here early today.
