COST OF NAVAL BATTLE.
Five Minutes Fighting Requires an Ex.
penditure of $4,000 on One Ship.

From Tuesday to Sunday" Victor
1871, ''the Prussians hurled $4,000 pro-
jectiles at us. 1t required 300 railway
trucks to transport them. Each shot
cost 90 francs; total, 100000 francs.
The damage to the forts Is estimated
at 400 francs. About ten men have
BEEN killed. Each of our dead cost the
Prussians 10000 francs"
This extract, says London Tft-Bits,
gives one an excellent idea of the cost
and ineffectiveness of big-gun work on
land a generation ago, when 1t took an
average of $500 projectiles, costing
10000 francs, to kill a single man
and to infiict less than f6 worth of
damage on the enemy's Notifications.
But time has changed since then,
and munitions with them, and the
great guns of to-day, on the sea at any
rate, give q vastly different account of
themselves. During the recent war
between America and Spain 1t will be
recalled that the Brooklyn poured such
deadly deluge of projectiles into the
Spanish warship Viscaya that within
five minutes the latter lay at the bot
tom of the sea a rent and battered
tumble of scrap iron.
In all the Brooklyn fired 61S shells
at the Vascaya and the bill of destruc-
ton read thus:
To 141 S-inch shells, at ESQ each,
e. $50; to 65 6-inch shells, at f21 each,
1855; to IL 6-pounder shells, at I'll
each, f12; to 400 1-pound shells, at II
shillings 6 pence each, $3.50.
Thus the five minutes firing cost the
United States fS,677, and during each
minute of the duel the Brooklyn hurled
1913 projectiles at her enemy at a cost
of f1,735. If we add to this the cost
OF the Viscaya's answering fire we see
that the fight between the two ships
could scarcely have cost less than
| $4,000 minute, or at the rate Of $780,
600 an hour. We must remember, too,
| that on neither ship would II be posi-
BILE to use all the available guns at
once; so that there is still a large mar
gin for increased expenditure when q
man-of-war is in a position to use her
| fighting powers to the utmost.
But let us take one of our own first
class battleships, the London, and EST
mate the cost Of five minutes fighting,
assuming that she could use all of heI
forty-six guns throughout.
The London's four 12-inch guns
which, by the way, cost no less than
f220,OO0. fire armor-piercing shells
weighing $50 pounds each at the rate
of two a minute, each projectile, with
its cordite charge Of 1914 pounds
costing $50. Thus in five minutes

UNDER THE SUN.

Tho men who have gone before US
Have sung the songs we sing;
The words of our clamorous chorus,
They were heard OF the ancient King.
The chords OF the Tyre that thrill us,
They were struck In the years gone by,
And the arrows of death that kill us
Are found where our fathers lie
The vanity sung of the Preacher
Is vanity still to-day;
The moan OF the stricken creature
Has rung In the woods Away.
But the songs are worth resinging
With the change of no single note,
And the spoken words are ringing
AS they rang in the years remote.
There is no new road to follow, Lowell
Nor need there ever be,
For the old, with its hill and hollow,
Lovel ri
Is enough for you and me.

ul-Timed Appreciation.

The gloomy and repressive Observ-
ance of the Sabbath that remained
long from the days of the Puritans has
happily died out in America. People
no longer believe that happiness on
Sunday is sin. In parts of Scotland,
however, the sterner view still holds.
William Maccallum lived with his
family on farm several miles from
the village. On Sunday he was wont
to stride with his long-legged son
James over the four miles of road TO
the kirk. The rest of the family fol
lowed in the cart.
One Sunday-an unusually fine Sun
day, when the air was filed with the
strength of the hill breezes-William
and James were swinging gravely
along on their way to the kirk. For
three miles their mouths were shut in
solemn silence
Finally the delight of living got the
better of the sons decorum, and he
said soberly, shifting the air, "'Tis a
fine dee"
His father turned on him in right.

monsters would hurl at the enemy
forty proJectiles weighing more than
eighteen tons and costing f3 200.
Each six-inch gun, Of which she has
twelve, costing 1880 each, throws
shells Of 100 pounds weight, costing
ETA apiece, and in five minutes Of rapid
and continuous firing these guns would
pour into the enemy's ships q hurri-
cane of projectiles weighing twenty
two tons, at a cost of f6, 6SS. SO far we
have only accounted for sixteen out of
the forty-six guns
The London twelve-pounders number
sixteen and cost 1855 each; from the
mouths Of these guns no fewer than
900 shells could be poured in five min
utes, representing nine tons of metal
and a cost of 1850.
Each of the half-dozen three-pound-
ers has firing capacity of thirty
shells a minute, so that in a five min
utes' fight they alone would send 1900
worth of metal into the enemys side;
while the eight maxims would send out
a storm of death-dealing bullets weigh
ing More than six hundredweight and
costing f140.
Thus, in five minutes fighting, using
all her forty-sx guns, the London
would vomit forth over fifty tons of
projectiles and the cost of this barking
would work out to more than ETA, 900.

A Farmer Found II.

Mount Pleasant, Utah, May 23.-To
find medicine that will cure every all
ment due to diseased or disordered Kid
neys has been the aim of many physi-
clans and chemists.
Mr.. G. E. Peterson, farmer of this
place says he has found such remedy
and that he has tried it with success in
his own case. Mr.. Peterson says the
remedy is Dodd's Kidney Pills, medi-
cine introduced here about seven
months ago.
81 am glad to be allowed to testify to
what good things Dodd's Kidney Pills
have done for me. 1 used this remedy
for Kidney trouble and it cured me
completely.
''I can heartily recommend Dodd's
Kidney Pills to all who suffer with
any kind of Kidney Trouble"
Mr.. Peterson's case is only one OF
many just as convincing that have been
reported recently. This new remedy
seems to have conquered Rheumatism
completely, not single case having
been reported where Dodd's Kidney
Pills have failed ts cure perfectly and
permanently.

Finally, after many other remedies
had been tried, we were advised to get

that after taking it only two weeks, a

HOSPITAL PETS.

pets much that Is entertaining has
been written. Hospital pets are not 80
well known, but it is easy to imagine
the pleasure they give to a ward full

doubt the statement of a nurse, In the
Hospital, that they brighten many a
weary hour Of convalescence and ma
erially help toward cure.
The first pet of which the nurse tells

about the ward, his clumsy gait, his
air of antiquity and wisdom caused

A monkey named Giovanni was
once q ward pet in a little hospital In
Leghorn, Italy. Originally he had be-

was that his monkey might stay with

sick man, but Giovanni's big eyes said

a least one Arkansas Democrat may

the place given to the Republican
candidate.
"Chairman +. NJ Fulll Of he Pnlas-
lll county Democratic central CON-
mittee points out that ihe Republicans
in this, the Fifth, congressional dis
t:.ict. appear prepared to use an op-
Eortunity for contest offered by the
question involving the validity OF the
poll tax amendment to the
constitution of Arkansas. The
Republican plan Of procedure seems
to be this: AS many negroes as
possible will be marshaled at the
polls Tuesday with instructions to
attempt to vote, regardless Of poll
tax receipts. If negro, Or white
Republican either has not paid the poll
tax he will be directed to try to cast
his ballot The Republicans count
or such Droffered ballots being re-
! jected because the requirement of the
! poll-tax amendment to the constitu-
ton has. not been complied with. Such
. rejection by the Democratic ele ction
/ judges will then form the basis either
t O. prosecutions in the federal courts
or of contest in congress, or both,
based on he contention that the poll
tax amendment having be5n declared
void by the attorney general of Ar
kansas, the chief law officer of the
; state and that declaration holding
good in the absence of a court opinion
TO the contrary, the election OtIic +;
would have no right to exclude the
Votes of citizens who have not paid
the poll tax. 1t would be argued by
the Republicans that to require voters
to exhibit pOll-taX receipt as a
prerequisite to voting will invalditate
the election. That it will render the
election invalid in the judgment II
a Republican house goes without
saying. There are in all Arkansas
only 10000 negroes who have paid the
poll tax this year, against 100000
white citizens who hold poll-tax re-
ceipts. If the voting were limited
to these qualified voters, the Reprb-
licans could not hope to emerge from
the election with even the shadow of
an excuse for contests. The question
concerning the validity Of the poll
tax amendment cannot be passed
upon judicially and determined be-
1ore the election and the Republicans
will insist that the opinion of Attor-
ney Ge neral Murphy in the premises
is in force and effect at the time the
election is held, therefore that it
should be binding.
"If the Republican plans succeed,
if the house is Republican,, the un-
seating of Congressman Chas. G.
Reid of this district and the award
ing of the seat to Col. A. S. Fowl@r,
the Republican nominee, will follow.
In the face of these conditions ami
prospects the Denocra ic leaders urge
