Greatest Previous Naval Disaster
Due to EynIOSiOu,


The greatest previous naval disaster
due to an explosion was the destruction
of the American battleship Maine in the
harbor of Havana, which precipitated the
Spanish-American war. Two hundred
American sailors lost their lives in this
explosion, which, according to the testi-
mony of experts who carefully examined
the sunken hull, was caused by the firing
of a mine under the warship as it lay
peacefully at anchor in a supposed friend
ly harbor.
The Maine was blown up Feb. -, 1898,
and so strong was the evidence that the
destruction of the ship and 200 of its
men and the injury of many others was
due to an almost unparalleled act of wan
ton treachery on the part of Spanish au-
thorities of the island that it reused
fiery wave of anger throughout the Unit
ed States. This resulted in an over
whelming demand for a declaration of war
against Spain.

BLAST ON WARSHIp.
HUNDREDS KILLED BY MAGA-
ZINE EXPLOSION.
french ironclad Jena Blown to
Pieces at Tou1on-Compressed Air
Torpedo the Cause-Most Deadly
Naval Disaster Since the Maine.

\ powder magazine on board the
French battleship Jena blew up Tues
day, while the vessel was in the Missi-
essy dock, at Toulon. owing to the
explosion of a compreSSed-air torpedo.
1t was reported that the casualties
number from 200 to 800. There were
about $50 officers and men on board
the jena at the time of the disaster.
but many of them jumped into the
water. The authorities declare that
the victims number over 200.
According to cablegrams, the explo-
sion took place during gun drill
which brought the bulk of the crew
into the vicinity of the magazine.
While the crew was lifting a torpedo
from the magazine some defect in the
compressed air apparatus caused a pre-
mature discharge. The shock of
bursting torpedo caused the almost
instantaneous explosion of the entire
magazine
The members of the torpedo crew
were blown into shreds. Scarcely
enough of their bodies remained to
make Identification possible The deck
was swept by Shreds of steel and sec
lions of the debris of the wrecked COM
partment. Scores who escaped death in
the initial blast met death in the hail
of missiles.
Thirty seconds after the explosion
the deck of the battleship was a mass
o. shattered and bleeding corpses.
Here and there injured men moved
feebly, but most of the victims were
killed outright. Calls for help were
made by the few officers left unin-
jured, and the surgeons began the task
chance for life remained.
The most of the men who persisted
were asleep in their hunks and ham,
mOcks between decks when the explo-
sion came which lifted the great ship
almost clear of the water and tore a
huge hole in its bottom. Many of the
men were killed as they slept. Others
were drowned as they sought to es-
cape to the deck by the inrushing tide
of water. Within few moments the
vessel had sunk to the bottom of the
harbor, where its wreck lies to-day.
The Jena n Modern Ship.
The jena was built at Brest and
launched in 1898, being completed in 1901,
so that she was one of the newest of the
French war vessels. She had a displace-
ment of 1861 tons and an indicated
horse power of 5000. Her length was
4OO4 feet, beam 6SA feet and draft
2719 feet.
Like all new French battleships, the
Jena had three propellers. Steam was
supplied to her three vertical triple-ex-
pansion engines by twenty Bellevile boil
ers fitted with economizers. The fur
naces were so arranged that petroleum
could be used with the coal. The normal
coal supply was $50 tons, giving an en-
durance of $500 miles at ten knots, and
1000 at full speed. The cost of the bat
tleship was $5,500,OOO.

You'll hear 1t on all sides that they wish you happy new year. We'll, its a very pleasant remark, and all of us are pleased to receive such greetings. And in the days, weeks and months to follow we wish each reader of this ad abundance of Joy and prosperity. Say. remember wishing a gentleman happy new year on New Years day, 1905, and tho poor fellow gave me look and his remark was "Chestnuts," but l insisted that he could be happy if he would change his drinks. We'll. to make tho long story brief, he "swore of" touching the 'growler" or its contents and had nothing but our tea and coffee in his house, and to-day he owes no man penny, has nice bank account Considering it's only two years ago). he dresses we'll and, as he says himself, his health never was more pleasing to him and he has no intention of going back to his old tricks. Now we don't expect to have everybody swear off this year but we sincerely hope that there will be quite a number who will try for one year and drink nothing stronger than tea and coffee (the kind we sell is o. K.) Remember, the quality we sell is the kind that you don't have to make faces at when you are trying too drink it (no trading stamps here). On the other hand you'll be turning with a sweet smile and twinkle in your eye asking to be favored with one rooro cunf,11 n1naSa and 1t'a all on account of the good quality we sell. If you doubt us give us one trial at
