FLEET GOES TO BATTLE.

The American Review of Reviews
IN tleating OF the '"True Significance
of the Pacific Cruise, says the trip
is made for practice purposes only and
advocates such naval practice as a
yearly feature OF the navy's work.
The Review cites the necessity Of cap.
tains testing their administrative
ability and suggests that the mobility
necessary To effectiveness can not be
acquired except by familiarity with
the water while masses OF ships are In
action.
That reads well enough, but we
suspect that the Review has simply
joined with the big officials in an
effort to allay the apprehension of the
public The fact is the big fleet has
gone over to Pacific waters to fight a
battle with Japan's fleet on July l6
This news leaked out from the navy
department very recently and Is now
not officially denied. Everything is In
perfect readiness for the battle, and
each captain has sealed orders to shoot
only when within striking distance
and to shoot at the dusky mems eyes.

pound shells hit the enemy anywhere
about the eye they will be disabled
from aiming well thereafter.

several months. Daily he and his chef
worked IN the laboratory of the latter,
testing one thing after another in or
der to make the entree perfect. The
recipe which follows, and which was
given to me by Victor himself, sounds
simple enough. till one remembers that
Bohemian pheasants cost fabulously,
and that the dish was intended to be
served at the royal table on the occa-

that the tax laden people of Portugal
protested bitterly against their king s
extravagances here's the recipe. You
can try it on your own kitchen range:
Make forcemeat of two breasts of
Bohemian pheasants for each person to
be served. Take six breasts of pheas-
ants, smother In butter and a glass of
good old Madeira for one hour Add to
this some essence Of fresh truffies. Line
