THE 1oWA's DAMAGE.
Result OF Damage More Serious Thar
Was Supposed.

Pensacola. Fla, April 10.-The dam
age 10 the battleship Iowa caused by
the premature explosion Of shell In
the forward port Pinch gun is more
serious than was thought when the
first report was made, and as a conse-
quence the big ship has been ordered
to the New York navy yard to go OUT
of commission. She steamed down 10
the Pensacola navy yard today. where
she IS fitting cut with supplies and
coal preparatory to sailing as soon as
possible for the north.
It is feared that the steel supports
under the Pinch gun turrets are
sprung to such an extent that they
will have to be removed, though this
cannot Vet be stated positively. The
gun itself is a total wreck. Although
the gln burst into numberless piece,
the end Of the gun is as smooth as II
it had been turned out. and except that
il is about twelve feet shorter than the
starboard gun. it is hardly noticeable
that an explosion has occurred Ac-
cordiag to the record, the exploded gun
WAS good fer at least another year OF
service. and rcuorts that the gun had
been condemned are Ei.hout fonnda-
ton.

dose and it seemed that IN the brief
est interval the cough would pass off
and / would 90 to sleep perfectly

as most agreeable surprise is put

that it would or could knock out the

tried it for such a purpose, but it
did, and it seemed with the second

The Carp Nuisance.

Wisconsin Is now troubled, as some
stctas farther east have been for years
by an imported pest almost as muco
disliked. although less In sight thah
tbe English sparrow-namely, tue Ger
man carp. Some years ago the stag
nant waters of the state were stocked
with these fish, which have propagated
so extensively as now to form a posi-
tive nuisance. The people OF the state
are disguised with the carp, ana the
fish commissioners admit that a mis-
take was made in ever having any
thing TO do with them. Streams whlch
once were clear and abounded In the
smaller bass, sunfish and perch, good
fishing from morning till night for the
small boys and the leisure population
ori now coffee colored and unrespon-
sive to the hook and line, while seine
brings up only the yellow and slate
colored earn. They root about the bot
tom. stirring up mud, and, what Is
more serious, eat the eggs or their
betters.
The fish commission has tried TO undo
its own work by netting and giving
away tons of carp, but the increase
keeps up. The resorts advertised for
their fine fishing are not affected, to be
sure, but it Is an even more serious
matter In some ways to ruin the fishing
grounds of half a million farmer boys
than to injure the sport of the few who
can enjoy the choice spots.
! AS food fish the best one of the
! fish commissions officers can say of the
carp is that 1T is not a bad fish for a
man who works hard and eats more to
fill his stomach than to tickle his
tongue" The carp may be useful as
river scavenger in the waters adjacent
to large towns. but in the streams anc
ponds of the interior it presents a per
picking problem.

oassltv FOR using children in this or any
other trade is absurd. To do Il Is eco
nomicaIly as well as morally indefensi.

New Jersey Child Labor Law.

The enforcement of the child labor
law in New Jersey, while not as drastic
and thoroughgoing measure as the
opponents Of this evil would like to see
enforced In all the states, will doubtless
have salutary results. 1t provides pun
ishments ranging from fine Of 5000
to year in prison for those who will
fully employ children under fourteen
years OF age. 1t would have been bet
ter If the qualifying word "willfully"
had been left out, as INSCRIPTIONS en-
ployers will be able, by the exercise of
a little skill, to make 1t difficult to
prove that they "willfully" violated the
law.
The most strenuous opponents to the
enforcement of the law are the glass
makers in the southern part of the
state, who declare their business will
be ruined by the change and that they
Will fight the law in court and out.
This threat is rather mysterious, and If
will be interesting to see what shane
the fighting takes.
IT 1t is impossible to make glass in
New Jersey without the employment
OF children under fourteen years of
age the business ought to close. There
are many more important things than
