RELICS OF THE MAINE.
Tablets to Be Constructed From
Scraps of Historic Vessel.

The Navy Department has accepted
the designs of Charles Keck. New York
sculptor. for the memorial tablets which
are to be cast from the scrap material of
the historic battleship Maine. buried out
side Havana harbor last spring.
When the hull Of the battleship, whose
loss was followed by the Spanish-Ameri-
can war, was raised from the harbor
where she had lain for fourteen years,
everything about which sentiment could
attach was saved as a relic. Much of
the material, however, was unsuitable for
preservation in its existing shape. The
department ordered that from this debris
1000 memorial tablets be cast. The
tablets will be Is by Is inches and will be
suitably inscribed. Each will weigh
about seventy pounds.
They may be obtained by municipal,
military and naval organizations through
out the country the only condition being
that the recipient shall pay for their
actual cost.

AUSTRALIA WILL
 TACKLE TRUST

sidney. Oct. S0-The government of Australia has started a process which is designed to suppress the exhorbitant charges for steel pro ducts which have been maintained by the steel trust.
 Under the ownership and oper- atlon of the government a modern steel plant is to be constructed and equipped in every way Co meet the competition of the trust. Australia is noted for its application of gov ernment ownership ideas and the proposed undertaking is not wholly an experiment, because in many ways it has been found to the ad- vantage Of the nation to operate manufacturing industries.
 The advanced position taken by the socialistic country may result in teaching the United states some thing about the control of trusts.

No man is ever likely to accom-
plish any more than be resolute-
1y sets himself to accomplish.
The tendency is to drift, to float
with the current, to let the
stream of life sweep us whittier
it will. That is the easier way
doubtless, and the banks are
very beautiful and pleasant as we
glide between them; but ourtrue
journey lies the other way; the
real treasure mines of life are in
the hills near the sources of the
river; and we must row, and row
hard against the current if we
would reach them. Let us row.
not float through life; steer, not
drift.
