the City of Paris and the City OF New
York. This almost evenly matched
quartet were still striving for suprem-
acy when the Cunard company sent
along the then unmatched Lucania
and Compania. These elbowed all
the rest aside and were having rec
ords very much their own way when,
suddenly, German competitor ap-
peared-one with the imposing name
of Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse.
1t was not known what this new
champion was to do, but she showed
it on her first trip, crossing the bar
with three broken records in her
wake-that for sustained high speed
during the voyage, for the best single
days run and for the fastest maiden
trip ever made across the Atlantic.
Following this vessel came the
Deutschland, and then the speedy
Kronprinz Wilhelm, both of which
the way of speed.
shipyard this third racer, a vessel
for which the unequaled speed of
twenty-four knocks an hour is claimed.
Forty thousand is the indicated
horse power of the new champion. To
give an idea of this steam wrought
energy, it has been estimated that in
order to obtain a like force by
human effort 900 men would each
have to move 165 pounds a distance
of 3 feet 33s inches per second.
To supply this power to the en-
gines nineteen boilers have been
placed in the vessel, these having a
total heating surface of 107 $40
square feet, equivalent to two and =
half acres. The bunker capacity is
$500 tons, a quantity sufficient to
supply $500 families with fuel for a
fortnight, but fed into the glowing
nav of this huge vessel the quantity
is insufficient for even one round trip
between New York and Bremen.

OF course, steamships never race.
at least their captains always deny
that they ever do; but whenever YES
sells of rival lines happen to be near
each other, and moving in the same
direction, it unfafl1ngly happens that
they are handled SO as to create an
impression among the passengers
that each Is striving to do little
better than her best.
Coming to a description of the Kali
ser Wilhelm H., it may be said that
she has accommodations for IT'S
saloon passengers, 343 second class
and no steerage passengers. The
crew consists of 600 all told, maxim g
a total of 2,48S for whom accommoda-
lions are provided. A unique inno-
walton In this express liner is the
installation of what the company
describes as Imperial rooms,'' lux
ury apartments and state cabins, %
three grades hitherto unknown to the
sea voyagers.
Another unique feature is a COM
plete telephone system, which ex-
tends throughout the ship, with
central and all it's appurtenances.
Mr.. Jones, engaged in a poker game
in the smoking room, may be able to
call up his spouse and explain to Ee1
just why it is that he will be home
late: while Mr.. Smith. who is look
ing on at the game, can call up the
wine steward, and tell him just what
he thinks about him and that last
decoction that he furnished. The
vessel has also wireless telegraphy.
AS the steamer is to carry the i'm
perial and United States MAIL a spe-
cial pOstofice has been fitted up
according to government instructions.
In this postoffce several higher and
subordinate officials will be busily
engaged with the sorting of the mail,
SO that it may be distributed inme-
diately after the arrival a. the port of
destination.

Senator Depew Overlooked Part Of
the Bargain.
AT this point we pressed Senator
Depew to tell US a funny story. He
was taken somewhat aback, and hest
tated for a moment.
Il haven't had time to think up any
new ones recently" he said. Tues
day I was in Newport, Wednesday 1
was in Albany, and to-day l start for
Biltmore, N. c.. But / will tell yoA an
odd one.
When I was boy in Poughkeepsie
the coach dog (the white dog with
black polka-dot spots) vas all the
rage, and all my boyish soul yearned
for one.
Il heard a man in town had one
which he would sell for SIS. Five dol
lars was a lot of money in those days,
but l scraped it together and bought
the dog.
He was a handsome fellow, spot
ted as blackly and neatly as heart
could wish, and l, with my purchase
on a leash, started proudly home.
1T was just such weather as we
have had this week 1 was half way
home with the coach dog when we
were caught in a fierce downpour of
rain The dog stopped still, and the
spots commenced to run. He had
been painted, and not with waterproof
paint at that
In ten minutes the dog was white
all over, and so was The with rain
and / with rage.
Il fastened back to the bunko man.
Look at this dog!' / cried. You've

fellows reply, but did forget to tell
you that there is an umbrella goes

The Kaiser Wilhelm IL, the Zig
new North German Lloyd steamship,
arrived at quarantine at New York,
on its maiden voyage, April 81. The
Kaiser left Cherbourg at half past
1 O'Clock April 16, being delayed at
Southampton to take on 700 tons of
fresh water.
Although on its trial trip the liner
attained a speed of $3.50 knots an
hour, it did not maintain any such
record as this, the maiden westward
passage of the Atlantic, the time be-
ing five days and twenty-three hours
from CherbOurg to Sandy Hook over
{. course of 3,160 miles, which is
seven hours and fourteen minutes be-
hind the Deutschland's maiden rec
ord. The liner Celtic was passed
April 20, and also an Allan liner. 1t
was found necessary to keep to the
uortherly route on account of ice.
Four icebergs were passed April 10.
The ship proved an excellent sea
boat and exceptionally steady, with
only slight vibration.
The Cedric, the last great addition
to the White Star fleet, combines
steadiness of keel with vastness of
bulk, but she has no pretensions in
the way of speed. Now comes this
German craft, whose builders not
only claim unprecedented speed for
their creation, but who are willing to
guarantee a reasonable amount of
steadiness in a seaway, and to the
voyager who wants but little in the
way of food a fair insurance against
the Titles loss.
For the last dozen or so years it
has been very much a game of see
saw between the various lines which
have been competing for the lead.
First one has had it, then the other.
For a time the British White Star
was in the ascendant, the Teutonic
and the Majestic of that line having
no rivals save the two Inman racers,

HEIREssEs TO BE SERVANTS.
Curious Conditions in the Will Of /;
Bachelor.

Bachelor.
The curious will case about which
there was much talk in Munich last
week savors more of the good old
fairy-tale days of ..once upon a time"
than of this modern and undomestic
generation Herr X was an eccentric
old bachelor who lived in a county
town in Bavaria When he died he
left a will with Instructions that it was
not to be opened until five years after
his death.
His nearest relatives-a brother and
sister, with a school girl daughter
apiece-waited with impotence till
the time should elapse, for it was
known that the old gentleman had
amassed a small fortune by successful
lottery speculations. At last the Wi
was opened and the contents made
known to the expectant families. A
certain proportion of the money was
left to various charities; the rest was
to be divided equally between the two
nieces On condition that each of the
girls became maid servants in a re-
spectacle Munich family and remained
in service for a year, at the end of
which time the 1egacies were to be
paid over, provided the would-be heir
esses were able to produce an excel
lent character from the mistreSseS
they had served during the year of
probation
One of the nieces has made a virtue
of necessity, and is serving her kitchen
apprenticeship with a good grace; the
other, unable to support the ignominy
of DOMINIC the cap and apron, has re-
fused to fulfill the conditions of the
will, and her father is disputing its
validity on the ground OF the old
mans insanity.-London Tattler.

ct had a pleasant reminder of the
war the other day." said the Captain.
1T came in the shape of a silver
cream pitcher and sugar bowl, ac-
companied by a well-written letter,
which my people liked very much.
The letter abounded in references the
significance of which was apparent
only to myself. After one of the hot
engagements of the war l came upon
a young colored man who had been
between the lines and who was like
a man paralyZed- l spoke reassur-
ingly to him and hurried after the re-
treating enemy.
In the evening some of my men
brought the young negro into camp,
and as 1 passed the group 1 heard the
boys explaining to the young fellow
that he was free and could do as he
pleased. They wanted to know what
he was going to do about it, and in
timated pretty strongly that If they
were in his place they would take
the job of cooking for certain mess
in their own company. AS 1 passed
the colored man came toward me and
stammered that he didn't know what
the massas meant, but if he could do
as he pleased he would do whatever
1 wanted him to do.
HE became my cook and man of
all work at company headquarters,
and remained with me to the end of
the war. l took him home with me
and in due time established him in
business. Then 1 came West, and
after my location in Chicago did not
hear from my protege for thirty
years. He, in the meantime had
changed location, had prospered in
business, and after thirty years wait
ing sent me the silver creamer and
sugar, and a letter testifying to his
gratitude and affection. 1 liked that,
you know, and l was as glad to hear
OF his success in life as 1 would be
to hear of the success of an old COM
rade in arms."-Chicago Inter Ocean.

The Dark BEFORE Dawn.

Oh, mystery of the morning gloam.
OF haunted air, of MINDLESS hush,
oh, wonder of the deepening dome
Altar, still far, the mornings flush!
My spirit hears among the spheres,
The round earth's STRENGTHENING rush!
A single leaf. on yonder tree,
The planets rush hath felt, hath heard;
And soon all branches whispering bel
That whisper wakes the nested bird
The song 81 thrush, before the blush
OF dawn. khe dreaming world has ever
stirreeI
The old moon withers in the east
The winds of space may drive her far!
In heavens chancel waits the priest
Dawn'S pontif-p priest, the morning start
And yonder, 10, a shafted glow
The gates of day-spring fall ajar!
