terest and zeal in. the ehurch's
work. In addition to the church

Divine glory so fill this house mp

destroying hand OF time. still
prove to be that happy place
where many weary souls shall
come and End sweet communion
with their God.

A New Passenger Depot.

There is a we'll founded report
current that the /. @. Railroad has
decided to go ahead with the erec-
stinn Of a new brick passenger de-
in this city. Of late design,

Progressive Union should bring.
all the pressure possible on the

to build a permanent union depot
for passenger traffic. It would
certainly be greatly to che inter-

"a plan.

Naval Construction Bureau Willing to
Build Big Battleship.

Washington. May 9.-The cOnstruc-
ton bureau of the navy is willing to
undertake to build the 10000 ton bat
tleship provided for in the pending
Naval Appropriation bill and on the
basis of experience acquired in the
construction of the battleship Con-
necticut at the New York navy yard,
the constructors feel sure they can
execute this task with reasonable dis
patch at IL minimum of cost. A care
full estimate limits the time allowed
for construction to as months and the
cost of s10.0O0000. The New York
navy yard is found to be the only place
available and suitable for this work.
1t is pointed out that after all the new
ships will not be very much larger
than some of those now afoat or au-
thorized or building for the American
navy.

In fact the difference in size would
not be particularly noticeable to n

slightly fuller lines and breadth of hull.
The principal factor in fixing the
time Of construction is the procure
ment of the necessary structural steel.

We're guilty of "jOckeying" In some de-
gree For a long time in advance ma

yard and at the word, 1t became only
a test of throwing this stock together
rapidly. In fact the ship was 4 mere
shell when launched. If the American
steel makers are willing to do their
share in supplying the necessary ma
terials the naval constructors believe
that they can build the new American
%, 600 ton ship in about the same time
that would be required to turn out a
battleship of the New Hampshire class,
namely four years. They are by no
ImeanS clear that Congress will require
them to undertake this work but they
point out that even in the absence of a
specific instruction the usual form OF
building provides that the department
may undertake the work of conStruc-

sonable.
