quoted as saying that this method was
used by the sponsor Of the Colorado.
The third method is described as the
plng-pong style, and is a dainty little
smash, sufficiently vicious. however, to
shower the champagne on the hull, and
sometimes on the fair operator also.
It is admitted that none of these
methods, Is perfect and that failure in
each. through the nervous or excite
ment of the operator, who by a bad aim
or lack of sufficient force, may fail to
break the bottle and, in that way spoil
the whole proceedings. A failure Of
that kind might be disastrous to a shin

and, as the sailors say, would "hoodoo"
that particular vessel In one case, the
sponsor delayed the blow until the de-
scending ship got beyond her reach; but
she was equal to the occasion, and by a,
well-directed throw managed to smash
the bottle broadside on.
To avoid the possibility of such acci-
dents Admiral Bowes suggests the
use of device attached to the ship in
such a way that when the young lady
releases the bottle 1t is bound to strike
against the PROV of the ship with suffi-
cient force to release its contents, and
thus give the ship its maiden bath be-

THE GERMANS AND ALsACE-LOR-
RAINE.

The recent proceedings at Metz, when
the emperor unveiled the new door to
the famous cathedral, and received the
homage of the Roman Catholic clergy
of Alsace-Lorraine. are full of signlfi-
canoe as illustrating the new relations
between the German government and
the political leaders In the province
Since the breakup of the old Elsasser
Liga the guidance of the people in sec
ular matters has fallen almost entirely
into the hands of the clergy. OF the ten
members of the Reichstag who compose
the Alsace- Lorraine party, the majori-
ty are clergymen, and all are Roman
Catholics. Although Professionalism is
strong In the Reichsland. the intolerant
language of the Protestant press has
gradually forced those non-Catholics
who remained faithful to France to as
sumo an attitude of non-intervention in
political controversies. Hence the au-
thority of the Abbes Wetterte and VIM
Aterer has become more and more un-
questioned. 1t Is this party which the
government, after denouncing it vigor-
ousfy in the Rechstag and out of it, is
now sedulously flattering. Evidently
the path which the emperor and his ad-
visetrs have marked out for themselves
in .llsace-Lorraine is precisely the OPP
posite of that which they have hitherto
travelled. There is to be no more abuse
of the clergy as hotbed Of French SELL
tineut. On the contrary, no pains are
to be spared to win the cassocks over to
the side of the authorities.

CHRISTENING A SHIP.

Rear Admiral Bowles. Chief Con
structor of the Navy, who was, an in
terested spectator at the recent launch
of the armored cruiser Colorado at
Philadelphia, has made some interest
ing comments ON the general subject of
the methods practiced in Christening
warships by breaking bottles of cham
payne on their prows. According to his
experience there are three ways OF
handling the bottle on such occasions.
He. describes one as the baseball
method, in which the bottle is held like
a bat and hurled against the side of the
ship with a long, sweeping swing, with
energy enough for a home run or g
three-bagger at least. Another method
is described as the tennis blow, in which
the bottle is smashed against the prov

AS for the university volte-face, it is
plain that the calculation of the govern
ment is that by securing the presence
of the theological students at lectures
where German youths predominant
there will be fewer opportunities for
imbibing French affinities than in the
semfnaries on French soil, where the
majority Of Alsatian candidates for the
priesthood have hitherto been trained
Nor, we may be quite sure. is it by pure
accident that this new Difference to the
Catholic clergy comedies with the en-
forcement of the Associations law upin
the other side of the Vosges. There has
always been a certain shrewd method
about German administration in AL
sace-Lorraine, even when the measures
themselves were most tactlessly chos-
en-: and although Herr Won Roller
shares the failings of most Prussian
bureaucrats, he is far-sighted enough
to see that the incidents in France have
produced more decided feeling of dis
like towards that country among the
Catholic neasantry OF the lost prov
inces" than has existed since the an
nexation.
How far the attitude of the govern
ment will be refrigerated is an uncer-
tain matter. True, the Able Wetterte
I has hailed the imperial homage to the
Catholic authorities with an enthus-
asm which constras:s oddly with the
tone Of his journal, the Kolmarer Zei-
tung, only a year or two ago; but there
is always the possibility that when the
Alsace clergy are most complimentary
to Germany they have one eye upon its

effect in France, where every symptom
OF apparent cordiality between the Pro-
testant~ leaders and German authority
IS employed by the Anti Ministerial
press. Consequently, the reality of a
reconciliation between the rulers of the
Reichsland and the Catholic clergy is
open to question, especially when it is
remembered that In the early days of
the annexation the Bishops of strass-
burg and Metz and their clergy dis
played not less warmth than their sue
cessors at the present moment in OPP
posing inconvenient demonstra tons
against the new regime.-Correspon-
dence of the London Spectator.
