was at once significant and ominous has proven likewise prophetic. Let us hope the Napoleonic smile will go no further. Theodore Roosevelt emulatlng the great Bonaparte, has already lasted longer. The Corsican was done for at five and forty. The New Yorker has passed his fifty second birthday. Shall the next chapter in the strange. eventful his tory of Theodore repeat the words of Rosebcry in his closing chapter touching the last phase of Napoleon They are wondrously analogous. We quote them as follows:
 He loses the balance of his judg- ment ard becomes a curse to his own country and to all others. He cannot be still himself or give man. kind an instant of repose. And so he produces universal un- rest. universal hostility. the universal sense of his 'ncompatibility with all established society. But he pursues his path as if possessed, as if driv- en by the inward sting of some burning devil. He has caused to be sane. The intellect and energy are sun lUtit. Dut, dS II were, III tdll cature. They have become monstros- ities, body and mind are affected by the prolonged strain to be more than mortal. Then there is the inevitable collapse: and at St Helena we are watching with curious compassion. he reaction and decline. The truth We take to be this: The mind of man has not in it sufficient bal last to enable 1t to exercise or endure for long supreme uncontrolled power. Or, to put it in other words. the human frame Is unequal to any thing approaching omnipotence."
 If this writer. who has nothing but personal goodwill for the ex- President, could reach his mind and heart. he would say:
 Cromwell, I charge thee. fling away
 ambition:
 By that sin fell the angels; how,
 then, can man.

GREAT GROWTH OF
 GERMAN NAVY
ACTIVITY OF THE kAiSER'S GOVERNMENT IS UNI
 PARAlLElED.

BERLIN. Nov. 19. - The last of the series of changes In the Ger. man high sea fleet outlined for this year took place last week, the 27- knot cruiser Coln and the 35-knot lin and the 23-knot koningsberg. No British cruiser in commission has a designed speed of more than 9 knots.
 Five years ago the high sea fleet consisted of 12 battleships and two armored cruisers, five of which are Dreadnaughts.
 The actual increase of fighting power, has however, been far great CT than the mere increase in num- bers. In the first place, the ships of 1905 averaged only 1O,9S1 tons each, while today the average Is 1i,015 tons.
 In 1905 there was not a single heavy gun in the whole First battle squadron, all the ships carrying only 3.4-inch guns, as their main arm ament. In the Second squadron there were only 20 11-inch guns, as well as 32 9.4-inch guns. 2S 6.7-inch and IA 5.9-inch guns.
 Today there remains only two bat ueships carrying nothing larger than the 9.4-inch and these will have been relieved by next spring. The num- Der of these guns has thus decreased to eight, while the 5.9-inch has in creased from 2S to 40 and the H. inch from 20 to 2S
 In the cruiser squadron the change has been even greater. Five years ago this force contained not a sin gle ll-inch gun. Now there are eight, The two 9.4-inch, which were present in 1905, have disappeared; but instead of four S.2-inch there are 20, and instead of 20 5.9-inch, 28
 The fairest measure of a fleet however, is the weight of it's gun. fire. That is to say, the weight of meal that is discharged in one round from all the principal guns. On this basis, the following is the vast change which has taken place in this fleet in five years:

DETROITS FINISH
WITHOUT A CAPTAIN

While it was not generally known, the
champion Detroit team finished the sea-
son of 1909 without a captain. and won
the pennant at that. Perhaps it would
be a good idea for other teams. If they de-
sire to be successful, to get along without
field leader.
There is little story back OF the fail
ure Of Tiger to be appointed captain
when Schaefer was traded by Detroit,
and behind the story is the superstition
that exists among ball players 1t is
understood that the captaincy was ten
dered to several of the Detroit players,
but was refused.

Bill Coughlin acted as first lieutenant

heart breaking race the Tigers were
up against year after year, caused Cough
lin to go back is a question, but the fact
remains that the veteran slumped SO
badly in his work in 1909 that the Detroit
club had no trouble getting waivers on
him and disposed Of his services to a
minor league.
Herman Schaefer was selected to sue

finely with his work. Schaefer, brainy

NURSE DIES FOR PATIENT.
Invalid Saved, While She Is Crushed
in Elevator Shaft,

TRENTON, " j.. January S.-Although
she might have saved herself instead OF
her patient, Miss Elizabeth Coombe, a
nurse in the Mercer Hospital here, sacri-
feed her life today in performing her
duties i'm the institution.
The young woman was crushed to death
in an elevator shaft in the hospital, but
the patient whom she saved does not
know of the nurses heroism. The young
woman will be buried tomorrow.
Miss Coombe was one of the most pop
ular young women of Trenton. She met
death bravely. and but for her display OF
courage two lives would have been sacri-
feed instead of one.
The nurse was instructed to convey a
helpless patient from the third floor in
the hospital to the first, where the oper-
ating room is situated. In this work she
operated an elevator alone, and stopped
the elevator at the first floor. She was
just removing the cot bearing the invalid
when she felt the elevator moving up
ward
Instantly she pushed the cot backward
into the Enclosure to prevent the pa
tient from being injured. but as she did
so the elevator shot upward, crushing hel
head, dragging her for a distance anC
then dropping her into the pit twenty
feet below.
The patient did not suffer even a
scratch, but the youthful nurse died q
few moments after the hospital internes
arrived at her side. Her face was
crushed beyond all recognition.
