It has been shown by experiments
that this form of structure will stand
the greatest amount of puncture from
shots before it collapses, and so the
navy department is replacing the more
or less solid structures with this
grapevine arrangement.

averaging about 1000 pounds, as
against $4,000 pounds of most masts

new masts from the water to the look.
out is about 120 feet, or approximately
the same as the old ones, but the
"eye" of the ship is infinitely safer on
the top of the new masts than it was

Walter Kitchener at Disadvantage.

Walter Kitchener at Disadvantage.
Gen. Walter Kitchener, who is sta
toned at Bermuda, is a brother OF
Lord Kitchener, and this fact has
worked against him rather than for
him. He is considered a clever SOL
der in England, and at the time Of
the war in South Africa it was
thought that he would receive an i'm
portant post that would become va
cant. He was passed over and his
brother, Lord Kitchener, was asked
for the reason. ''It should have gone
to my brother" he said, "but If I had
given it to him everybody would have
yelled favoritism' at the top Of their
voices, so I picked someone else"
Walter Kitchener was expected at
Cape Town at a railway station once
when an old lady rushed in excitedly
and asked at what platform Lord
Kitchener was expected to arrive. Ne
one seemed to know anything about
his VisI- until it finally dawned upon
the staff officer that she had heard Of
the arrival of his brother. He IN
formed her that this was only Kitch-
ener that was expected. Il call it a
shame that this man, whoever he may
be, should be allowed to use Lord
Kitchener's name; the government
ought to do something about it, she
said. stalking majestically out of the

Picturesque Feature of the BattIsshIp

Boston.-One of the most pictur-

The military mast, that heavy steel
column Of which most ships of Uncle

platforms Of which machine guns
could be used to pop away at torpedo
boats or Ike craft, is being regarded
as obsolete.
The military mast was considered
