Washington. D. c., July THE de-
sign for the new type of battleship
embodies what are known to be many
of the ideas entertained by officers
who have studied the construction of
battleships, and who have come to the
conclusion that there ought to be a
big-gun ship with only two types of
guns on board, one being the twelve
inch for the offensive, the other be-
ing the small guns for torpedo de-
fence. This marks a departure in the
composition of the armament of a
battleship and does violence to a
treasured and highly respected tradi-
tion of naval ordinances.
But the most modern battleship will
probably have no intermediate guns
of eight and six inch between the big
guns and the torpedo defence bat
terry. 1t becomes at once of course
an interesting question what shall
constitute the torpedo defence part OF
the ships armament. 1t appears thai
naval expert view on the subject Ii
the opinion that the torpedo defence
guns should not be less than three
inches In calibre, mainly for the reas.
on that it has been demonstrated tha
a first class torpedo boat destroyer
cannot be stopped by six-pounders
three Founders and other guns of tha
class. Recent experiments which hav.
been made, indicates that he thre,
inch projectile Is too small to be GER
tain of stopping the first class des
troyer, and as result of this in
yestigation probably the British gov
ernment has decided. it is reported
upon eighteen Founders as the calibr
for all torpedo defence guns.
The Importance of the size of thes
guns may be appreciated from the fac
that even four inch gun will no
stop a destroyer attacking head-or

NO TIDINGS OF The SHIP
NAVAL OFFICERS EXCITED OVER
THE FAILURE TO RECEIVE ANY
REPORTS FROM THE RoosE-
WELT AND OF THE UNUSUALLY
SEVERE WEATHER THIS YEAR.

Washington, July THAT Captain
Robert e. Peary has sacrificed his life
in an effort to discover the North
Pole is the fear of naval men here,
who are worried by the failure to get
any tidings of the ship Roosevelt,
which sailed for arctic regions July
16, 1905.
Advices from the American Geo.
graphical society add to their fears.
The reports are that the weather in
the far north this spring and early
summer was more than usually rig
orous, that severe storms have been
frequent and that the ice is heavy.
Consequently it is feared that Peary' S
ship may have been ground to pieces
by drifting foes.

NO FLESH POTS FOR HIM.
Washington Athlete Who Has Made
Remarkable Record on Veg
etable Diet.

None of the flesh pots Of Egypt. nor
Of the Washington lunch rooms, for
Lewis Connor, a rising young athlete
of the Washington ID. CD high school.
Plain grains, fruits and nuts, says
Good Health. are his selections when
preparing to reach for the laurel
wreath. Mr.. Connor's prowess on the
cinder path and In the jumping pit
have created a furore In Washington
athletic circles.
In summarizing the work Of Conner
1t will be found that out Of the is or
more events in which he has entered
he has won eight finished second in
three, and run third in one, making
three the total number Of times he has
been unplaced In his entire career.
During all OF Connor's work in the
high school he attended school and
worked at the post office from three
in the afternoon until II at night. At
the end Of the second year, by permits
sion Of Principal Wilson, he studied
during the summer Of 1904, and that
fall he took an examination which
qualified him for the fourth class.
Last spring he was graduated among
the first Of his class, and did It all on
vegetable food.

GOVERNMENT HAS TO PAY
Workmen at the Capital Put on Ex-
ira. Charges for Official
Work,

Residents Of Washington frequently
complain that the cost Of living at the
national capital is rapidly on the In
crease. Foreigners claim that Wash
ington is q close second to st. Peters
burg IN point Of expense. Both state
ments are probably an exaggeration,
but an instance quoted by a diplo-
mat the other day In support of this
contention shows the attitude Of some
American laborers toward the govern
ment. This ambassador sent for q
carpenter, whom he asked to quote
prices on walnut bookcase which he
wished built into his study. The car
penter, after taking the measure
ments and doing bit Of figuring, said: :,
II can build that bookcase for you,
personally, for @2s. but II It Is for the
government shall have to charge
you SO more"
When the ambassador asked the rea-
son for this remarkable discrimina-
ton. the carpenter said: I'VE reason
this way: The British government
can just as easy afford to pay $36 for
that bookcase rs not, but $26 is enough
to charge you for it. II you're going
to pay for 1t the price Is 326."
Then I'll pay for It," remarked the
ambassador quietly. and the deal was
closed.

GOT coNcREssMAN's PAY.
Woman Clerk IN Washington Secures
Payment for Member After
"a Years.

Through the untiring efforts OF Miss
Miriam E. Benjamin, OF Boston.
clerk In one Of the departments at
Washington, 310,4S2 has been award
ed Samuel Lee, Z negro. who wa
elected to congress Is years ago. but
never sworn In.
Samuel Lee went to the Forty sew
enth congress a contestant for the seat
of white man named Richardson,
from South Carolina. The hight was q
long and memorable one before that
congress. On the last day 6f the ses-
sion the committee on elections voted
to seat Lee.
Near the close Of the busy final ses-
sion on March Lee appeared before
the speakers desk In the house OF rep
resentatives. Just as he raised his
hand to be sworn In the clock over the
speakers chair pointed to the hour
OF IL, and congress, under the Law,
was dissolved.
This placed Lee ii peculiar posi-
ton. He had been declared legally en-
titled to his seat, but never was sworn
In, and never was paid. For Is years
he has been unable to collect his sal
airy.
A few years ago Miss BENJAMIN went
to Washington to work as clerk Aft
or she had been there awhile some one
told her OF Lees story. She sought
out Lee and found him i'll. From his
own lips she heard his story.
1.-THE government should pay you, :
she said. 'I don't believe It will stand
for Richardson receiving the salary,
while you were legally elected and
entitled to the same. I will try to get
you the money
Miss BENJAMIN wrote a letter to her
brother, Edgar p. Benjamin, Of this
city. Encouraged by reply from
him, she Immediately took steps for
the recovery Of Lees salary. She car
ried her case to the chairman OF the
committee on appropriations. with the
result that q bill was framed. and
while reported favorably by nine con-
crosses it always failed OF passage.
The Lee claim came up recently, and
after long fight In the house the bill
granting him SIC, 482 for two years SAL
airy and allowances was passed.
