Our War Ship Passes the Test.

When the Kearsarge was thrown open for the inspection of the British sailors at Portsmouth there was some adverse criticism, but the admiration for the cooking apparatus was unan- imous"
 Now, that is kind of the British critics. They know how to give just the delicate touch of compliment that is not fatteTy but at the same time leaves the recipients in a genial glow Of satisfaction. There may be some fault 10 find with the double turrets and ether shooting arrangements of the Kearsarge, but what are trihcs like these in a battleship if her cook ing arrangements are all right?
 The British visitors on the Kearsarge were not so much interested in her range finders as in finding her range: and not so much in the caliber of her guns as in the capacity of her officers for absorbing hospitality in the fluid form, as the glowing cable dispatches state.-New York World.

THE SOUP LADLE IN DIPLOMACY.
 A story told by the late Commander Edward Barrett. United States navy, shows that plated ware when no longer useful for mess purposes on warships can be devoted to the service of diplO- macy. According to this story some American navy officers. wishing to cOnciliate an African potentate named King Billy presented him with 'a discarded soup ladle and lot of gay ribbons. This so delighted the dusky sovereign that when he came aboard the ship to make a visit in state he wore the ladle tied on the front of his ample person with the variegated rib bons. and also wore a dilapidate ted stovepipe hat-Kansas City Journal
