gest class and takes no account of the
smaller battleships, armored cruisers,
some of which are also of gigantic
size, and the hundreds of war vessels
of lesser types belonging to these and
other nations. For a world OF peace
we certainly are well armed. If all
this is necessary to prevent war, what
would we do If we actually expected
war? 1t is like a man going about
bristIing with guns and knives merely
TO announce the fact that he does not
want to fight.
The original British Dreadnought.
after which all the others of that class
are to some extent modelled, is vessel
of 1890 tons displacement, length 400
feet. width 50 feet, draft % feet 6
inches, maximum speed 22.4 knots.
armament ten tweIve-inch guns, TWEEN
%y-seven quick firing twelve Founders
and five submerged torpedo tubes.
Our Dreadnoughts Larger.
Compared to this the American
Dreadnoughts show up very favorably,
all Of them exceIling It in size with the
exception of the Michigan and South
Carolina. These two vessels went into
commission In 1905 They are 10000
tons displacement, 1875 knots speed.
40 feet length. so feet 3 inches beam
and "a feet inches draft. Their arma-
ment consists of eight ten4nch guns,
twenty-five quick firing three inch
guns, two quick firing three Founders.
eight quick firing one Founders and
two torpedo tubes. The Michigan and
South Carolina are not always classed
as Dreadnoughts, but the arrangement
Of their guns and other points of con-
struction fix them with this type. Sew
eraI of our older battleships are larger,
however, the Connecticut and Louisi-
ana each having 1900 tons displsce-
ment and the New Hampshire. Kan
Sas, Minnesota and Vermont 1860
tons. Each of these six vessels has
four twelve-inch guns, with a host of
smaller pieces. They were designed,
however, before the advent of the
Dreadnougbt type.
The Delaware and North Dakota, the
two vessels that have just been tested
by the government, begin the real
Dreadnought era, or, rather. super
Dreadnought era, in the American
navy. English experts have pro-
nounced the North Dakota the most
up TO date battleship ahoat. After her

calized-there is a hourishing little vii.

be accepted as characteristic Of them

instance Of genuine old fashioned court

"Weel, Jeems, I think ye sh'd just

as he had no particular preference he
went straight away to ask her.
"Wull We TAX me, Marackw was the
