JAPAN HAS BEST BATTLEsHIP
Believed to be the Most Perfect Fiqht.
ing Vessel AfIoat.

The new Japanese battleship Mika-
sa, the largest and, as many believe,
the most perfect battleship in exis-
tence, is a mighty affair Like all the
new battleships of the japanese navy,
she was built in an English yard, hav-
ing recently been turned out by the
shipbuilding firm at Barrow. A sister
ship, the Asahi, was built at Clyde
bank; the Shikishima, battleship OF
about $50 tons displacement, was
built on the Thames; the Hatsuse, of
$4,000 tons, at Elswick and the Fuju
and Yashima, each of 1890 tons,
were built, respectively. On the
Thames and by the Elswick firm All
of these fine ships are of eighteen
knots speed or over, the Fuju, Yash-
ina and the Hatsuse having made over
nineteen knots on trial The displace-
ment of the Mikasa is 200 tons.
One of the best features of this big
vessel is the very complete way in
which she is armored, particularly in
respect to the protection afforded to
the secondary battery. Unlike the YES
sells of the English navy and the Eng
lish-built Japanese battleships Fuju
and Yashima, the Mikasa has her
secondary battery protected by con-
tinuOus wall of side armor, a system
of protection which we have always
favored in our own country. This af-
fords complene inclosed battery, and
through the unprotected stretches Of
the sides of the ship lying between ar
mored easements. The belt armor at
the water line is from four to nine
inches thick. Above that her lower
deck is cuirassed by nine-inch plating,
with fourteen-inch fore and aft bulk
heads. Her casemated battery is COW
cred with six-inch armor, her barbettes
with fourteen inches below and eight
inches over the guns, while she has
in addition an armored deck which on
the slopes is no less than four inches
in thickness. So the Mikasa may well
be said to be clad in "cap-a-pied" ar
NOR.
Her armament is not less imposing,
consisting as it does of four long
twelve-inch guns, fourteen six-inch
and twenty three-inch quick-fring
cannon, twelve light rapid-fre guns
and four submerged torpedo tubes. Nor
must the formidable ram be forgotten,
which is strengthened and stiffened-
as is the case in the later English
battleship--by the side armor being
brought down so as to cover it entirely
for some way back. In short, there
will be no bigger or more powerful
fighting ship in Far Eastern waters
than the Mikasa when she arrives at
her estination.-Scientific American

Mr.. Van Arsdale adopted the SUI

ceived a very nice little note fro1
the actor, and it is this note which
filed away with Mr.. Van Arsdale'
treasures. Here are the verses:
Last night sat expectant, Sol,
And waited for the curtains rise
l oft had seen you in the play,
But ever in anothers eyes.
And so l went to see you, Sol,
| knew there was a treat in store
But only deemed that it would be
The same as l oft saw before.
But when the curtain rose, l saw
You enter in your easy way,
And was back in Illinois,
Most certainly not at the play;
tancied in the old court room
[ heard your words of wisdom faI
And then l saw you midst the poor
Your gracious hand outstretched f.
all.
l saw you shield the innocent,
And longed to grasp your honoret
hand,
And when you made the guilty cringe
only wished had command
Of fortunes Golfers, I would heap
A wealth of worldly store on you,
That you might share it with the poor
AS well l know that ou would do
That smile of love and sympathy
Seemed to illuminte the place;
I fancied it was like the one
That beamed on Lincoln's homely
face;
Your voice that filled that peopled
house
Seemed of another age apart
Not actor, but the man saw,
A man, and oh! with what heart!
Yes, Sol, I went to see you play,
Just for amusement, nothing more;
l did not dream that I would gain
Such wealth of learning or such
store
OF wisdom: aye, a sermon twas,
A wondrous sermon in the play,
Which than all sermons ever preached
In hearts of men will longer stay

A Santa Anna Veteran Dead.

A white-haired, gray-bearded old
Mexican, whose patriarchal figure has
been a familiar sight on the streets
of Beeville, Tex, for anumber of years,
died here recently. He was 102 years
of age, the record of his christening
in the Catholic church at Cadercita,
state of Neuvo Leon, Mex, in 1900,
being in existence. He was soldier
under Santa Anna. He was twice
married, and was the father Of thirty
six children. His descendants are so
numerous and so widely dispersed
throughout this section that he did
not know one-half of them. He was
able to read without glasses.-San An

CONGRESSIONAL NEWS.

Washington, June 11.-Just before
adjournment the senate agreed to
vote finally upon the Nicaragua canal
bill and all pending amendments June
19. Senator Fairbanks of Indiana
made a speech favoring the Panama
route. Originally, he said, he favored
the Nicaragua route, but, investiga-
ton of the subject, coupled with the
determination of the isthmian com.
mission, induced him to change his
mind. He argued that the route
not only would be cheaper in the first
instance, but cheaper in operation
after the canal were constructed.
Before consideration of the canal
question was resumed, the motion of
Senator Wellington of Maryland to
discharge the committee on privileges
and elections from further considera-
ton of the resolution providing for a
submission of an amendment to the
constitution for the election of SEN
ators by the people was defeated II
to 35, after sharp debate.
The house dispatched the Corliss
Pacific cable bill by striking out the
enacting clause of the measure, by a
vote of 116 to IT, thus giving no oppor-
tunity to test the strength of the Dali
yell substitute, which authorized the
president to contract with a private
company for laying a cable. The
speakers were Messrs. Shackleford of
Missouri Mann of Illinois, Morrell of
Pennsylvania, and Tompkins of Ohio,
for the bill; Messrs. Richardson of
Alabama, Newlands of Nevada, Loud
of California and Cannon of Illinois
against it.

Washington, June 12.-After CON
sidering the London dock charged ;ill
1or an hour and a half without com
pleting it, the senate resumed con-
sideration of the isthmian canal
question. Senator Morgan OF Alabama
occupied the floor three hours and a
half, discussing particularly the diplo-
matte phases of the question. From
this point he was diverted by an
amendment introduced by Senator
Fairbanks of Indiana providing for
the issue OF bonds for the construc-
ton of canal. Senator Morgan v1g-
orously attacked the amenument,
maintaining that the expense of lie
canal should be paid from treasury
current receipts. incidentally he again
opposed the Panama route and assail-
ed the effort of the company to dis
pose of concessions it held from the
old company.
The house adopted as special .ulc
for consideration the irrigation bill
which passed the senate some time
age and devoted the day to a general
debate of the measure.

Washington, June 16-After a dis
cussion extending over parts of sever
al days the senate passed the Lon
don dock charges bill. Opposition to
the measure practically collapsed and
it was passed without division. Con-
sideration then was continued of the
isthmian canal project, Senators Gull
lom of Illinois and Kittredge of South
Dakota delivering speeches advocat-
ing the Panama route. The former
based his argument On the report of
the isthmian commission, recommend
ing that route, and asserting that he
was satisfied that a good title could
be obtained. Mr.. Kittredge attacked
the Nicaragua plan as lacking in def
niteness. He pointed out that Costa
RIGA was constitutionally unable to
grant the necessary concessions to the
United States and said if the
Nicaragua route were selected it
probably would be a long time before
work could begin, even if It ever could
be. A spirited discussion was pre-
cipitated over motion by Senator
Proctor of Vermont to agree with the
house on the army appropriation bill.
Several weeks ago the senate was af-
fronted by a message from the house,
refusing to submit to conference on
certain senate amendments. Opposf-
ton to Senator Proctors motion was
so vigorous that finally he was forced
to withdraw it.
