Game Called Off.

The game that was scheduled to
take place this afternoon between
the Midshipmen and George Wash
ington University, of Washington, was
called off. 1t is said to be at
the request of the Naval Academy
authorities. The cancelling of the
game is due to the fact that the
coaches wish to devote this afternoon
in putting the players through some
stiff practice work. The middies
will play Swarthmore on Saturday.

and the Newport News Company which
secured the contract for the Louisiana,
IS straining every nerve to complete its
vessel before the government builders.
The result is that the two vessels have
caught up with the Georgia and Ne
braska. which are the most backward
of the ships started two years before,
and will be completed in 1906, with the
last OF the Georgia class.
In 1908 Congress authorized three
more ships of the size of the Louisiana,
to be named Kansas, Vermont and Min
nesota together with two smaller ships
of 1900 tons, the Idaho and Missis-
sippi. The last Congress voted one
more of the big fellows" the New
Hampshire so that by 1908 we shall have
a squadron of six of these magnificent
fighting machines. Meanwhile two
armored cruisers, the Washington and
Tennessee, were laid down at the same
time with the Louisiana, and two more
were authorized at the last session to
be called the North Carolina and Mon
tana.
When these ships are completed in
1908, we shall not only have left Russia
and Germany far behind, but in the
opinion of many experts, will be superior
to France. France will still have a
larger number of ships ahoat but on
the average they will be older and less
efficient than our new navy, which can
justly claim to be second only to Great
Britain.
1t is difficult to generalize broadly,
but it may safely be said that the indivl-
dual ships of the American navy are
better than those of any foreign power
which were launched at the same time.
One item of strength is the 8-inch gun.
Nearly all battleships carry four big
guns, II or IL inch, but with foreign
navies the next size is usually 6-inch
gun Modern experience has condemned
the 6-inch gun as inadequate against
modern armor at the probable battle
ranges of the future, England, the most
consistent advocate of the 6-inch gun,
has this year definitely abandoned it

originally designed to be like the Ala
bama, but now new feature came into
prominence. Heretofore the speed of
our ships had been designed for sixteen
knots, and had remained at this conser-
vative figure while foreign navies had
advanced to eighteen knots. 1t was felt
that we could not afford to be behind
in this respect. so the ships were made
larger to accommodate the extra boilers
and weight of engines, and cur first 49,
knot battleships were launched. Incl
dentally the old I3-inch gun was re-
duced to a smaller but more powerful
I2-inch gun and sixteen o-inch guns
were installed, or two more than on the
Alabama
AS the last of these vessels, the Ohio,
was the latest battieship to go into COM
mission, we may pause here to consider
where we stand if a war should break
out tomorrow.
At the present time the United States
is generally ranked fifth in naval
strength. First comes Great Britain
who, with fifty battleships launched
since 1884, is safely in the place dictated
by her policy, /. e., superior to any two
powers put together. France is second,
with less than half the strength of Eng
land. Russia is third on paper, but be-
sides the damage she has already sus-
tanned in the war, is subject to terri
bic handicap in having half her ships
bottled up in the Black Sea Close be-
hind her come Germany and the United
States. now so evenly matched that any
superiority is a matter of individual
opinion Japan, Italy and Austria fol-
low IN the order named.
So much for the present. When
we look to the immediate future,
however, we find that the United States
is building more armored vessels than
any other power. We have now under
construction no less than thirteen battle
ships and ten armored cruisers, and the
completion of these vessels will make
radical change in our standing among
the powers
During the year 1905 we shall put in
commission four out of the six armored

will put us ineontestably ahead of Ger
| many. Before the end of 1906 we shall
have the rest of the California class and
fvc big battleships of the Georgia class,
and shall have passed Russia in the
race, Black Sea fleet and ALL These
| eleven armored vessels were authorized
in 1899 and 1900, but have been badly
delayed in construction. The Georgia
class deserves special mention. The in
creased size of the Maine of 1880 tons
over the Alabama of 1850 tons gave
opportunity for so many improvements,
not only in increased speed but in guns,
arnor and coal capacity. that the ques-
ton of still bigger ship was inevitably
presented. Big ships are expensive, but
the United States does not have to
count each penny in its budget like the
European nations, and the demonstra-
ton that large ship could be given an
all-round efficiency superior to a small
er ship induced our designers to attempt
a 1900 ton vessel. The 8-inch turrets
were re-introduced, two superposed and
two on the side, so that six 8-inch guns
could be fred in a broadside. The O.
inch gun was still retained, but given
subsidiary position. Still another
knot was added to the speed, which now
reached 70 knots.
After the Georgia class, the next bat
tieships to be completed will be Louisi-
ana and Connecticut, both recently
launched These are the first of class
of ships which are the largest and most
powerful battleships in the world.
To the same number of I2-inch and 8
inch guns carried by the Georgia is
added a battery of twelve finch guns,
far more powerful than the 6-inch which
they replace With this powerful bat
terry and a complete wall of Krupp ar
NOR over it, our latest design should be
a match for any battleship built or build
ing. Equally satisfactory is the fact that
they are being built at rate of speed
far in excess of anything heretofore
accomplished in this country. his is
due to the fact that the delays in the
previous vessels induced Congress to |
provide that the Connecticut should be
built by the government at Navy |

 Aids fin House Renting.
 In the renting business she makes her appearance while the prospective tenant Is inspecting the rooms or house. She is greatly chagrined to find that there Is any one ahead of her. Her admiration of the premises is bound1ess. and she points out their best points delicately while indulging in her appro- citation. If. as is generally the case, the person who is really inspecting the place is a woman. the effect of another woman going into ecstasies over the same is sure to have some influence, and, besides. it Is asserted that woman is just cruel enough to delight in talk ing away something that happens to be coveted by one of her own sex. Whether this is true or not, the fact remains that the gentle impetus which the arrival of the woman at the oppor- tune moment gives to a nearly com. pIeted transaction Is enough to warrant congratulating the founder of the sys- tenn, whoever he Is, upon his ingen- uity.
