MEYERS NAVY YARD PLAN
To Maintain Three on Atlantic
and Two on Pacific Coast.
From The Tribune Bureau.

Washington. June 19-Secretary Never
presented his plan for ar economical ad-
ninistration Of navy yards to-day 10 the
House Committee on Expenditures Of the
Navy Department. He said that it was de-
sirsble to maintain only three yards on the
Atlantic Coast and only two on the Pa
ofc Coast The latter will ne the present
yard al Bremerton. on Puget Sound and a
yard preferably on San Francisco Bay, in
stead Of at Vallejo the site OF the Mare
Island Navy Yard, which is difficult of ap-
proach for the largest ships. The San
Francisco delegation has hitherto resisted
all the efforts Of the department to have
the yard in that neighborhood transferred
20 some place Which will not require so
much money for maintenance
One Of the three yards on the Atlantic
Coast will he at Brooklyn That is settled.
Another will undoubtedly be at Philadel-
rhia. whore facilities for taking care OF
ships out OF commission are especially
good on account OF the large fresh water
basin, the yard serving as a repair plant.
II is a question where the third yard will
he maintained There will be much press
IRE I'm favor Of Norfolk, and the fact that
Roads forms a part OF the approach ia
the present naval station argues in favor
Of that place. Besides. there are excep-
tionally good docking facilities. There is
also some talk of retaining tho yard al
charleston. which is used at present A
station for the torpedo boats and subma-
rines. hut Norfolk Is considered by naval
officers generally as possessing an advan-
tage over the South Carolina establishment

THE GREEN FIEND.
Absinth Was Originally a Harmless
Medical Remedy

Absinth. the green fiend that satu-
rates fashionable France. was origi-
nally an extremely harmless medical
remedy.
1t was a French physician who first
used it. His name was Ordinaire, and
he was living as refugee at Couvet.
in Switzerland. at the close of the
eighteenth century. Like many other
country doctors at that time. he was
also a druggist, and his fayorite RENE
dy was certain elixir of absinth of
which he alone had the secret.
At his death he bequeathed the for
mula to his housekeeper. Mile. Grand
pierre. and she sold it to the daughters
Of Lieutenant Henriod. They cultivat-
ed in their little garden the herbs nee
essary for connecting it. and after they
had distilled certain quantity of the
liquid they sold it on commission to
itinerant peddlers. who quickly dis
posed of it in the adjacent towns and
villages.
Finally. during the first decade of
the nineteenth century. a wealthy dis
tiller purchased the formula. and very
soon afterward he placed on the mar
ket the modern absin ID. which differs
greatly from the old medical remedy,
since the latter contained no alcohol
and very little absinth.
