the State, having been engaged in the
business almost continuously since the
war. He was also engaged extensively
in agricultural pursuits, and at his
death owned large land interests in the
county. Through close application to
business, coupled with industry and
extraordinary business ability, Mr..
Skillman had amassed a considerable
amount of this worlds goods. Few
men there were in Breckenridge coun-
ty who had not had business dealings
with him, and his honesty and upright
ness in all transactions are universally
attested.
The i'll health of Mr.. Skillman dates
back to the Cloverport fire, when, dur
ing the excitement, he overworked
himself, and was Immediately bed

ridden. Since then his health had
gradually failed, and about four years
ago he was removed to the infrmary at
Louisville Though expert medical
skill and the closest attention were en-
ployed in an effort to restore him to
health, all were in vain.

NATIONS ORDERING HUGE YES
SELLS FOR WAR PURPOSES.
Thirty-Five Monsters Of Destruction to
Be Added to Battle Craft Afoat by
Eall-United States Ships
Large.

London.-The epidemic of monster
battleshlps is spreading. By the
close of the present summer no fewer
than 35 of these enormous craft will
haze been completed, begun or order
ed, but of these 80 only seven will fly
the British flag. The other 2S belong
to foreign powers, and this is the first
time in the history of the British
navy that It has been so gTievously
outnumbered in the most powerful
type of ship.
The monster battleships building,
completed or TO be laid down before
the close of the summer of 1907 are
as follows:
England-Four Dreadnoughts. three
lnvincibles; total, seven.
Germany-Four Dreadnoughts, two
Invincibles total, six.
France-SiX Dantons total, six.
Japan-Four monster battleships, two
monster cruisers; total, six.
South American repuhlics-Six
Dreadnoughts; total six.
United States-Two Michigans, two
Pacifcators; total, four
All these ships have been ordered
since January, 1905. In the Eve years

same group of powers laid down or or
dered AZ flrst-class battleships, of
which 16 were British. Thus in the
Dreadnought era the British proper.
tion has enormously declined In 1906
1t is only 20 per cent of the battle
ships OF the great naval powers; in
1904 it was "a per cent.
Another point is very striking. In
1900-4 the British battleships were on
the whole, more powerful and larger
than those of rival nations, the sole
exception being the United States. But
in 1905-7 many of the foreign battle
ships and armored cruisers are larger
and more powerful than the British
ships, so that the numerical disadvan-
tage is now accompanied by a disad-
vantage in quality of ships. Three
German, four Japanese and two United
States ships will be larger than any
vessel that the United Kingdom pos
sesses.
It is true that TO the above total of
British monster ships should be add
ed to battleships which will be begun
about January. 1908, and possibly a
third, which may be commenced In
March, 1908. But, even so. the Brit
ish total will be only ten, and will

After the frame has been thus thor
