Jaison Paige, graduate of the
University of Chicago, has arrived by
steamer from Naples with a story of
robbery on the Desert of Sahara,
which caused him to make one of the
shortest customs declarations on rec
ord, for the reason that little was
left of his possessions to be declared
dutiable. Paige went to Africa in
connection with the survey work of
the Cape to Cairo railroad In addi-
ton to his work he made a collection
of curios from the various native
tribes. He also got hold of lot of
rugs made by the natives as well as
wild animal skins, the whole forming
a valuable collection. He says he also
made many maps and drawings for
The benefit of science, all of which
were taken from him in the robbery.

AS result of certain facts devei-
oped by the cruise Of the North At
lantic battleship squadron in Euro
peap waters, it is not unlikely that
it will be found necessary to dock
battleships oftener than once year.
One ship, according to the official re-
potts just received at the Navy De-
partment, averaged 3.15 knots per
ton. Of two ships in this squadron it
was found that one was consuming
so per cent more coal than the other,
because of the fact that the former
had not been docked for nearly year
and her bottom in consequence so
foul of barnacles as to hinder her pro-
gress.
