The race for the honor OF owning
the most formidable battleship in the
world goes to the slowest instead of
the swiftest in the contest. The Uni
ted States improved on the British
Dreadnaughts by a center limo ar
rangement of the turrets, and this
caused the Britons to reconsider their
plans. The Italian navy department
has now produced battleship which
combines the twin gun turret. the
triple gun turret and the center line
arrangement, thus providing broad
side of 13 twelve-inch guns and fore
and-aft fire with five. This will give
the naval constructors of the world a
fresh problem in the multiplication
and adjustment Of turrets for the eff
fective location of guns with respect
to broadside and fore-and-aft delivery
OF missiles.

COLLEGE GIRLS AND oAYETY.
MICHIGAN

There has been marked progress In
the United States and In England
more conspicuously in the higher edu-
cation of women. But severe criti-
cism is uttered by Miss Marion Talbot.
dean OF women in the University OF
Chicago, as to existing methods. One
OF her propositions is that too many
girls go to college openly and avowed-
ly with the purpose OF having good
time" They seem to regard the years
that should be devoted to serious
study and thoughtful training for the
work Of their lives merely as an inter
val of enjoyment. prelude to long
term of penal servitude. Doubtless
much of this attitude may be attribu-
ted to an undue presentation OF the
gay and social side of college life. says
Washington Post. The girl at home
and in the preparatory school is
taught by friends and sometimes by
instructors to look forward to merri-
ment rather than to serious work In
libraries, laboratories and classrooms.
The campus and the tearoom and the
undergraduate societies are all allure
ments rather than incentives to ambi-
ton. 1t need not sadden the gayety OF
youth to learn that life is not wholly
made up of flowers and bonbons.
There is bread to be made as well as
cake. Not all husbands are princes as
to income, however optimistic the
view of their character. The girl, no
more than the boy, should be permit
ted to drift through college. There
should be a definite aim supplemented
with propulsive power, either through
innate incentive or carefully appropri-
ate discipline.

When the count Of seven had been
reached and 1t was evident that the
white champion had been finished, at
least hundred people broke through
the ropes and Timekeeper Harding
was screened from the ring by the
crowd. The confusion was so great
that no announcements from the ring
officials were audible.
Finally after more or less of a
struggle that looked for a time as
though it would grow into a riot, the
ring was partially cleared.
The once great Jeffries-the master
of the ring, the heretofore never de-
feated champion of all champions, as
his admirers had called him, was still
half outside the ropes struggling to
rise. The negro conquerer, with his
smile still intact, yet not seeming to
gloat, was in his corner surrounded
by his friends.
johnson Wants to "Shake."
When jeff was led back to his cor
ner by Corbett, Berger and Jack JEFF
fries he was still dazed. Johnson
moved to the center of the ring and
received the congratulations of Billy
Delaney. He was breathing normal
ly. He was not hurt in any way.
Hart said to the champion: go
over and shake hands with the poor
old fellow, Jack"
mo, / don't owe him anything
now" said Johnson.
Later he went to Jeffries's corner,
but Jim Corbett and Jack O'Brien
waved him away.
When he returned to his own cor
ner the crowding was so dense the
police had to beat them back
The first man to congratulate him
in his corner was John l.. Sullivan.
JEFF was attended by his physician
as he sat in his corner. He sat shak-
ing his head sadly for a few minutes
and then was led to his dressing
room.
Soon afterwards he was taken to
his camp at Moana Springs.
AS soon as the men left the ring
the crowd began the destruction of
the ring. The ropes were cut into
bits, the canvas ripped up and snip
ped into small pieces, and even the
staples that hold the canvas were un-
screwed and taken as souvenirs.

\ The utilization of the old ram Katah-
din for a target, off the Indian Head
proving grounds, serves to call atten-
ton to the fact that like the dynamite
cruiser Vesuvius. the Katahdin was to
revolutionize coast defense. Rear Ad-
miral Daniel Ammen had a struggle
in getting congress to make appropria-
tions for her construction, as did Lieu
tenant Zalinsh for that of the Vesu-
vius, but those who opposed them
may have been right, after all. If all
the money that has been mistakenly
spent in naval development could be
recovered, somebody could build a
navy without drawing upon any other
account.

BOY TORTURED BY ECZEMA

when my boy was six years old, he
suffered terribly with eczema. He
could neither sit still nor lie quietly In
bed, for the itching was dreadful. He
would irritate spots by scratching
with his nails and that only made
them worse. A doctor treated him
and we tried almost everything, but
the eczema seemed TO spread. 1t
started in small place on the lower
extremities and. spread for two years
until 1t very nearly covered the back
part of his leg to the knee.
