CLING TO THEIR PRIVILEGES
Ambassadors Enjoy Many Rights
That Have Been Accorded Them
for Centuries.

Ambassador" and minister rnean
pretty must the same to the average
man, but there is a very great differ
ence between the two. inasmuch as an
ambassador possesses many privileges
abroad that do not pertain to a mere
minister.
Perhaps the most curious privilege Of
an ambassador, who is accredited to
the ruler Of a country and not merely
to the government thereof. as is a min
lister, is that the ambassador may when
dismissed turn his back to the SOW
ereign to whose court he has been
assigned. Briefly described the mode
of procedure is as follows:
When the audience is at an end the
ambassador waits to be dismissed by
the sovereign. When dismissed the am
bassador bows, retires three PAGES,
bows again. turns on his heels and
walks to the folding doors. But when
the reigning sovereign Is a woman q
more polite method Is employed. To
turn his back would be to resign Z
privilege; therefore the ambassador 70
tires sideways. He keeps one eye on
the sovereign and with the other he
endeavors to find the door. BY this
unique means he contrives to show Ill
%politeness to the sovereign and at the
same time retain his ambassadorial
privilege In retiring. Another privilege
Of an ambassador is that of being ush-
cred into the royal presence through
folding doors. both OF which must b.
flung wide for him. None q Y IN am
bassador can claim this privilege, the
greatest favor In this respect that can
be shown any non-ambassadorial rep
re~sentative consisting in the opening
to him of one door only.
There Is one privilege of the ambas-
sador, a privilege that sometimes 90
casions great Inconvenience 70 the
ruler, which consists OF his right to
demand admission to the sovereign By
day o by night.

addition the ram was not seaworthy.
vesuvius Terror Of the Navy.
So the skipper OF the katahdin
brought his boat back to Washington
navy yard and the junk pile. The ram
became a curiosity of naval construc-
ton instead of a revolutionizer Of na-
val warfare.
Quite recently the Katahdin met =
prosaic end by acting as a target for
a new style Of naval artillery.
The Vesuvius came nearer fame. It
was launched In 1886. The Spanish
American war also heralded its death.
The Vesuvius was a dynamite cruz
ser. Its weapons ere three bronze
tubes projecting amidships and for
ward. From these tubes dynamite
shells containing $50 pounds Of gun
cotton were hurled by compressed air.
1t was expected that a few Of these
monster charges would destroy =
whole continent.
And they might have had the Vesu-
vius been able to fire accurately. The
tubes were immovable and the only
way to aim was to point the ship at
the target and then regulate the air
pressure. In the language of one ma
val expert, Sometimes we hit the isl
and of Cuba"
The V~esuvius saw real war service
in 1898. 1t has the Katahdin's record
beaten. The Vesuvius would sneak
close in to shore at night lei Santi-
ago and fire a few dynamite shells.
They made a frightful noise when
they exploded and won the sobriQuet
of "the earthquake maker" for the
ship. but nothing more.
To quote a naval officer: 1.-THE Vesu-
vius was turned out to be the terror Of
the seas and became the terror of tho
American navy"
Officers were afraid the dynamite
magazines would explode In q heavy
