of the navy, had encouraged marks
manship when the war with Spain
came along, but the standard
reached in these days is far ahead
of the best records in 1888. In the
battle of Santiago the Americans
did the main thing, which was to
get" the Spanish feet, but the hits
recorded were only per cent of
the shots fired. Progress indicated
by last years tests give assurance
that under like conditions now the
hits would be 20 per cent of the
total shots.
When the Russian fleet made a
dash from Port Arthur, the Japa.
nese gunners made poor showing.
BY the time, however, that they
cornered that other Russian feet
in the Japan sea they were In form
tot deliver the goods.
On that occasion they made a
record of 10 per cent of hits with
their heavy guns.
The crack men Of the British
navy are making hard fight with
! the Americans for first place. In
10 years the Englishmen have made
phenomenal progress. The i'm.
Dr0vement IN the number of hits
has been from 81 to II per cent.
The latter figure. of course, would
not be obtained in battle, but 1t
gives promise of deadly accuracy
under any circumstances.

MADE CARNEGIE PRINCE oF WEALTH

Special Correspondent to The Press.
PITTSBURG, April 6.-The man
who made it possible for Carnegie
to live in princely wealth has him
self died in abject poverty, blind
and helpless.
He was John Brislin, the inventor
of the rolling mill machinery that
revolutionized the steel industry.
With man named Antonio Vinnac
he patented certain devices in 1886
which he alleges were afterward
stolen by the Carnegie company.
Brislin and Carnegie were boy
hood friends. The one went on to
wealth, the other to restitution
Shortly after Brislin's patent was
granted, he and Vinnac entered suit
against the Carnegie Steel Co.. al
leging infringement. For years
the battle was fought in the United
States court, and Vinnac died Of
despair. Brislin maintained the
fight, and poured into the battle all
his savings of 40 years.
In 1902 the lower court awarded
him the ownership of patents worth
100000, 900, and then, as though ca
PRECIOUS fate had only encouraged
the old man to wound him more
exquisitely, the finding was re-
versed on a technicality. Brislin
could fight no longer. He had spent
all he had. A cataract began to
form over his eyes, and he was
forced to give up his mill work, for
he was an expert worker in steel
The Carnegie company, it is said,
made oyertures to him later, offer

HASJENS HIS DEATH

SAN FRANCISCO, April Ga
few minutes before his will was
ready to sign, Percy l.. Wells, a
civil engineer who came here from
Guatemala in the last stages OF
consumption, dashed his head
against the wall and died. He was
nearly crazed when told he could
not live to see his parents, and
called for an attorney to draw his
will. His relatives live in Waltham,
Mass.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1907-04-06

A boyhood friend of Carnegie's,
he invented the machinery which
made Carnegie rich. Declaring that
he was robbed of his invention, he
has died in poverty, blind and
broken hearted.
Brislin, blind and poor. spurned the
compromise with anger and con-
tempt.
Living from hand to mouth in
humble little cottage with his 5
children, the old man has felt death
approach, poor. blind and broken
hearted. 1t is said that just previ-
GUS to his death he received let
ter from Carnegie. Its contents are

Inc traveller, an ola man, AFTER looking
about him hesitatingly for moment
or two, betook himself to little inn
opposite the post-house known by the
sign Of the Piebald Horse, and kept by
the Widow Duval-a woman who en-
joyed and deserved the reputation of
being the fastest talker and the best
maker of gibelotte in the whole locality.
He sat down alone in the inn-parlor
and occupied the time, while his hostess
had gone to fetch the half-bottle of
wine that he ordered, in examining a
dirty old card which he extricated from
a mass of papers in his pocket book,
and which bore written on it these
lines:
when the troubles are over, do not
forget those who remember you with
eternal gratitude. Stop at the first
post-station beyond Meaux. or the
high-road to Paris, and ask at the inn
for Citizen Maurice, whenever you wish
to see us or to hear of us again.

the card in his pocket when the Widow
