after her acceptance by the govern
ment-is either on board or within
reaching distance. One tall funnel
70 feet from the CRATE up-stands
majestically against the blue sky line,
while the other lies on the wharf in
sections awaiting the hour when the
big gantry crane will pick it up and
set it carefully in its proper place.
You might even think that there were
two tunnels yet to be inserted, one
smaller than the other, for each
smokestack consists of two parts, an
inner funnel and larger outer one
tween to keep them cool when the
engines are trying to beat the speed
requirement and the fire room is
working under forced draft.
The gantry crane, looking like the
blackened skeleton of some ire
mendous ancestor of the mastodons,
as it stands firmly on four wide
spread steel legs and extends its
horizontal steel pToboscis out over the
cruiser, has greatly simplified the
business of putting heavy masses of
metal into a ship and the fact that a
single smokestack is all that remains
in the line of progress is an Indication

big engines whose power is that OF

electric fans, hoist the ammunition

of the decks over him.
Meantime the deck itself is a label
of noise and apparent confusion; the
noise is real enough but the confusion
is only seeming. The pneumatic ham,

Woman's Perfect Bloom.

Expert authority has decided that
the age of the Venus of Milo was 80.
This age, then, may be regarded as the
time Of woman's life when she is in
the most perfect bloom. According TO
history, this age. and on to 40, is the
period during which woman has in
spired the greatest love. Cleopatra
was supposed to have been 80 when
she met Antony, and Helen of Troy is
declared to have been nearly 40 when
Paris was smitten with her charms.
Other examples might be given, but
these show that woman's age of
fascination lies nearer TO the Indian
summer of her life than her days Of
budding springtime.

How Growing Warship

wrights and carpenters pounding and
saving here, there, and everywhere,
the foremen and superintendent as
sistants consulting, examining, and
issuing orders first above and then be-
low and now over the side through an
open guIfport-all these know where
they are going and what they are
doing and the next thing they must
take up, even though the mex
perienced layman sometimes can't
understand they know it, and the
splendid ship grows wonderfully under
their hands.
Leading from the cruisers upper
deck are straight, narrow stirways
that descend into her holds; below
these are yet other steps that go still
further down; and beyond these are
ladders, but how deep these go none
can say, except one who is very
familiar with the inner mysteries of
twentieth century naval architecture.
The land-lubber, after climbing up
and down for a half hour, loses count
and goes away with the childish i'm
preston that he might have continued
to descend right through the earth,
and eventually have come out in
China. But trip below decks, while

fashion, and from that apartment one
approaches the kitchen, six or eight
feet square, with cobbled floor. cast
iron stove nearly a century and quar-
ter old, primitive fire irons and cook
ing utensils and little other furniture.
A low, narrow door leads from the
kitchen to passage which finally
takes one to the outside air.
This curious suite of apartments,
eight or ten feet below the sidewalk,
is the creation Of the proprietor of the
house. His father before him had
maintained for a few choice spirits a
somewhat similar apartment down
town.
The son, who travelled in Holland
many years ago, determined to pre-
serve the tradition and improve upon
It, so he amused himself for nearly a
year in making with his own hands
this set Of cellar rooms after the pat
tern of many such which he had seen
in Dutch inns.
The result was a singularly dis
tinctive suite, which has been the
parent Of many similar apartments
made by the proprietor for others who
have been admitted to the cellar.
1t is the special pleasure of the crea-
tor of these apartments to entertain
from time to time during the autumn
and winter a few friends who are cap
able of enjoying the peculiar charms
of the place. The old stove is then
fired up with seasoned hickory sticks,
and thick steaks are done to turn up
on a primitive grill thrust bodily into
the stove over the Goals.
The low, wide door Of the vault Is
opened and barrel of October ale is
set abroach. Candles dimly light the
apartments and smoke from many
pipes goes to enrich the mellowness of
the exposed beams.

FEW CASUALTIES IN INTERNA-
TIoNAL SPEED CONTEST.
GERMAN CAR THE WINNER
Two Frenckmsn Run So Close That
Most Remarkable Feature TIE
Freedom from Observation-Disclosures
GUS Escape of English Crack.

Bally Shannon, Ireland, July g.
The international automobile race for
the James Gordon Bennett cup was
run yesterday and won by Jonatzy,
member of the German team, who COW
cred the distance of 370A miles in 6
hours, sc minutes, 8 seconds, includ-
ing the steps imposed by the regula-
tions.
Two members of the French team
ran each other so close for second
place that it will not be known until
today whether DeKnyff or Farman is
entitled to the honor. Only one min
ute divided them. 1t is thought likely
DeKnyff's claim to second place will
be upheld.
The most remarkable features OF
the great race were its practical i'm
munity from serious accidents and the
wretched showing by the American
team. At Bally Shannon, the head
quarters of the race, no news has been
received of any one being injured ex-
cept one CT the contestants, the Eng.
lish crack Jarrott, and his chauffeur.
Jarrett had miraculous escape from
death and now lies with broken col.
lar bone and badly bruised body. His
chauffeur also has a fractured collar
bone, besides broken leg. Both,
however, are doing well. The accident
occurred through the steering gear
getting out CT order when going at full
IF 4ho
automobile ran straight into bank at
the side OF the read and was smashed
in two. How the occupants escaped
death is more than they themselves
can explain.
Stocks, another Englishman, had his
car disabled through the same cause,
but not hurt.
Baron de Catras, after making a
splendid race broke the axle of his
car and Foxhall Keehe was retired be.
cause of similar accidv2t. Moores
and WintCn of the American team
both failed to finish owing to a de
rangement of the mechanism of their
cars, and Owen, the third member of
the team only completed five out CT
seven laps of the race. Thus only five
out of II starters completed the
course. One of these, Edge, the held
er of the cup, came in long after the
race was officially declared over.
+ The poor showing of the American
competitors is. generally attributed to
the excessive lightness of their cars
Amid the representative crowd of
English and Irish well known men
were Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. Field
Marshal Lord Roberts and the Earl of
Mayo. Gray Dinsmore represented
the automobile club of America. From
the racing point of view the contest
which lasted from in the morning
until 1880 last evening, will be remem-
bered for the desperate struggle be
tween DeKnyff, French and Jenatzy.
German. The daring drive of Gabriel
! in the Paris Bordeau race was eclipsed
yesterday by the speed with which the
contestants seven times passed Bally
Shannon. AS the final round was APP
preached and the gap between the two
rivals lessened. many thought a col.
lision inevitable, but DeKnyff gained
lead of a minute or two and crossed
the line ahead.

MARKING LINEN.

The housekeeper, whether she be a
novice or experienced, as a rule al
ways has her table and bed linen
marked. This is especially necessary
If they are done up at a laundry.
Simply stamping them with India ink
is, of course, the easiest way out of
the difficulty.
But this gives very cheap effect
to the articles, making them resemble
those used in small hotels and board
ing-houses. The solid embroidery of
the initials is, of course, the prettiest
that can be used, but there are many
who can not afford to pay for having
them thus embroidered, which is
really quite expensive, and have no
time of their own or lack the ability
to work them themselves.
Here is an idea which is novel and
pretty and very quickly accomplished.
1t is the spool embroidery which is
sometimes used in decorating a
blouse. First take any spool you may
desire and draw a circle family around
it on the article to be marked.
Start at the top of the circle and
brier-stitch around exactly half; then
start at the top again and brier-stitch
around the other half. At the top
leave little space This gives the
effect of small laurel wreath. In
the center mark the letter desired
and work this in back stitch or finely
over and over. This makes very
pretty marking for towels, done in
rather a coarse pere lustre cotton.
