tory test shows that the larger vessels
are really less effective than they are
\ now considered.
! Few people," said Commander How
| gaard. appreciate how great an advance
/ has been made in the armoring of war
| ships since 'Harveyized' steel was intro
duced in 1895. The armor made today has
twice the resistance of that used seven
years ago, which means that the same
protection can be given a battleship with
half the weight and half the bulk OF steel
In other words the protection afforded
previous to 1895 by eighteen inches of
armor can now be obtained by nine inches
OF hardened steel.
with the development of the battle
ship. as a very costly and powerful unit,
there is an even greater demand for an
auxiliary fleet of cruisers which shall
keep in constant touch with an enemy
and allow the heavyweight fighters to
choose their battle-ground. The Govern
ment that can afford to build frst-class
seagong battleships can best afford to
surround such expensive structures with
swarm OF lighter vessels.
'As the development of the battleShip
does not render the auxiliary craft I'M
necessary so the development OF an en-
tirely new weapon. the submarine boat,
does not make the battleship any less i'm
portant 1t is true that there has been
a popular impression that it was useless
to build costly battleships which could
be completely destroyed by comparative
ly inexpensive submarine boats. but this
opinion 1t seems to me, is based on
lack of knowledge of the real limitations
of the submarine boat. AS far as we have
learned the best power for submarine
propulsion is electricity, and with this
power we are limited to a total radius
OF action of about fifty miles. That is.
the submarine boat can do effective pa
troll service at distance of ten to twenty
miles from shore and still be able to re-
turn. which makes it a useful weapon
in keeping blockading squadron out of
range. In twenty-five years no essential
Improvement as regards weight and bulk
has been made in the storage of electric |
energy, and until an Improvement is
made in this respect or some radically |
new means of power is discovered sub |
marine boats will be available only for |
the defence of ports and landlocked /
hsrtors. and cannot at all affect the i'm |
rortance of the seagoing battleship."
Our Submarine Boats.
When asked what he thought Of the |
policy of the United States Government in
relation to submarine boats, Commander
Hovgaard, who las made a special study
of this subject abroad, said:
LAS this Government has confined its at
tention to one kind of submarine boat. it
seems wise that it should restrict the num-
Der it builds until this type has been thor
oughly tried. IN France several expert
mental boats are being built, and different
types are being developed. and it Is likely
that in this way the best will ultimately
be discovered. II might be better. it seems
II Government wants eQtIiD I
itself with submarine boats, to experiment
with different types, constructing a few of
each. rather than to build greater num-
Der all of the same design, for the sub
marine boat is still in the experimental
stage of its development"

There is nothing improper or incorrect

inter our solemn protest against the most
atrocious barbarity and cruelties that ever
were enacted against the human race. If
the people of our Great United States
would only know the truth about how
Great Britain is lighting the Boer women
and children there would be a long and
loud protest from al sections of the coun-

pie, but. let me ask of you. is there fair
ness and justice in our assisting the Eng
lish to crush out the Beers? And that is
what we are doing every day in the year.
We are selling horses and mules to the
English War Office. which is worse than
selling t!:em arms and ammunition, or
gun carriages or battle ships.

case of burglars. There used to be an
oldfashioned remedy for Group known
as hive syrup and tolu, but some
modern mothers say that Cham Der

not cost SO much. Itcauses the patient
to throw up the phlegm" quicker
