was done farther than losing the

Our Navy.

The rather remarkable speed devel- Oped by the new armOred cruiser "COl- orado" lately on her trial trip stamps her as the swiftest vessel of her type that the United States navy ever pos sessed. She is a new pattern of the armored-cruiser type, and should the five other ships of the same pattern the Pennsylvania" West Virginia, " Maryland" "California" and South Dakota"-now in course of construc- ton develop a speed equal to hers. this country will possess a group of six commerce-destroyers which, for speed, cannot be surpassed by those of any other country on the globe
 It is this persistent effort to improve our naval service that has brought the American navy up to it's present high condition of efficiency. The naval ex- perts at Washington are never satis- fled with what has already been ac- complished in this direction but are constantly striving after improve ments in design, construction and armament. The value of this policy was clearly demonstrated during the war with Spain. Even many people of the United States were nervous over the outcome of an encounter with the American and Spanish fleets, but the sweeping American victories at Manila and at Santiago quickly revealed that the Spanish vessels-not to speak of the difference between the "msn be- hind the guns"-were wholly out classed.
 The efficiency of the American navy does not, however, consist in the mere possession of modern warships. Rus sias Port Arthur and Vladivostok fleets were modern enough, but that did not prevent Togo and Kamimura from sending several of the most for midable Russian ships to the bottom and from crippling or bottling up most of the remainder. The reason for this was the superior training and discf- pline of the Japanese officers and crews for active fighting duty and the result is seen in the dash and, at the same time. the intelligence and dis erection that our navy displayed in it's operations during the war with Spain.
 It is one of the gratifying things about the recent political campaign that hardly word of criticism was directed against the United States navy. Nobody had the hardihood to insist that it's efficiency should be re- duced. Republicans and democrats alike glory in the achievements of the navy.

A SEA SHELL GAME.

 A lobster one eve heard a mermaid
 grieve Tn a coral cave of the ocean; She was wailing her fate at terrible Because of a faithless devotion. Now. come, pretty sweet" said the lobster effete, Such eyes were not made for cry
 ing; Come shed no more tears; allay all
 thy fears And stop thy violent signing" ''Ah, ha! my good sir; from your words
 I infer You know naught of love nor affec- tion; But perhaps you may learn if yourself you concern In the art of making confection. My heart has been cheated, my hopes
 all defeated, By that wretched mollusca, the clam; He shamefully used me and quite
 abused me The brute. the stingy old sham" "Oh the dastardly fool! But it's always
 the rule With clans and all their relations I'll buy thee a pearl, my dear little
 girl, For I'm one of your lusty crusta- ceans." So he purchased q pearl for the dear little girl, While she played at the game she
 was playing; She no longer could cry, cen though
 she would try, For she worked him with little essay ing. ''I thank you, good man, as much as I cam You're charming beyond al expres- sion; But now I must go. for surely you know You've relieved my erstwhile depres- siOn." So off. sir, she swam to her husband, the clam, And the lobster was left very qallid. He caught such Q cold that he died, I am told. And his carcass was chopped up for salad. New York Press.

Vale, Japan.

Limitation" once declared somebody, 'is the sincerest flattery,' and certainly Japans unmistakable desire to pattern herself after the west is most grati- flying to people whose bump of self esteem is by no means small. Day be- fore yesterday we were told that the kimono was frOwned upon in Nippon. Yesterday was received the interesting news that the Japanese would hence forth wear their eyebrows, not slant ed, but arched or straight like ours. Today comes the flattering intelligence that an imperial commission is to consider the advisability of substitut- ing the English alphabet for the Jap anese.
 But there is a fly in the ointment that is offered the west; a crumple in the rose leaf. It is pleasant sure to be admired but it will be sad to lose Ja- pan, the real, the old Japan. For even the untraveled westerner took pleasure in the thought that somewhere there existed a people who had the leisure to live daintily. A Lady Chrysan- themum who passed a charming exist ence on a mat under buff and blue paper umbrella, with a vase and a lacquered box for furniture. a brazier for stove and a cup of tea for sus- tenance has personified for him the FIowery Kingdom. But who can say that tomorrow this same Lady Chrys- anthemum will not have to be pictured in .'trotter" frock with a cozy corner for a setting and department store bric-a-brac for. details? >
 Even now Japan is in the transition stage. Adorable little heather no longer stand in picturesque groups their pocket-handkerchief fields. They are inspecting improved that has come from the west. No longer do tiny artists in sky blue garb work Tor the joy of the work ing. They. too are inspecting-in- specting improved methods of imitat- ing the real thing in art. The white peril of materialism. of rampant com mercialism. of sordid utility, which for so long has threatened Nippon, is al- ready beginning to engulf it. and day after tomorrow, at the very latest, there will be no real Japan.

As the Courant points out the Douglas plan is the result of natural evolution and the application of business sense to the management of political campaigns.

FATHER AND DAUGHTER.

Is there any fairer relationship in the wide world -han this between father and young daughter? Its only rivals are the ties between mother and son, mother and daughter, and father and son! To the budding womanlood thIt skips and pranks beside him the set tied man of affairs betrays the shy chivalry that, so long as he retains the innocence of his affections, nestles at his heart. For her he remembers again the gallant days of his youth; he quotes poetry. brings o,.t for Der amused and affectionate inspection dreams and hopes long Iaid by in the cedar chests or memory. For her sake he goes again into so-iety. consents to dress for dinner, is careful of his man. ners and his speech. The gTaces of life trail into his consciousness with the soft swish Of her Isngthening skirts.-Harper's Bazar.

FASHION FOOLED.

Thomas Fogarty. the illustrator, was talking about modern fashions in dress.
 Tt is hard to keep up with the fash ions,' he said. 'fThey are certainly confusing. The other night at a the ater man in rear seat jumped up excited.
 Down with that red umbrella in front, he cried.
 But his wife pulled him back into his chair.

the third day of his Indiana tour to-
night with an address in Richmond.
The hall was so crowded that it was
necessary to hold an overflow meeting
in the open air. Henry u. Johnson, q
former Republican representative in
congress, presided. Mr.. Bryan spoke
especially to the advocates of free sfI-'
yer, saying that the Republican party
was depending upon them for victory
in November. Mr.. Bryan said he would
more appreciate their support of the
Democratic ticket this year than in
their campaigns of 1896 or 1900.
