1t is stipulated in the old statute, which

all ships about to be sold or condemned
or repaired. In the latter case. when a
ship needs alteration, the commanding
officer sends in list and the ship is WIS.,

The entire process of inspections. pre-
liminary trials and routine drills are gone
through with in the case of every battle

UNEASINESS IN PARIS.
Financiers Alarmed at Rapid De-
cline of the Bourse.

PARIS. October 12.-French bank stocks
closed at the lowest price Of the day
Rio tintos were quoted at ITO a fall of
LIB; Thompson-Houston at 700. a fall Of 40,
and American Telephone at $50, fall of
.. Russian. Servian and Ottoman bonds
all fell heavily.
The rapid decline on the bourse, which
largely reflects the European political
situation. is causing uneasness here. 1t
Is feared that the losses incurred by
operators are so heavy that they may be
responsible for several failures on settle
ment day, October 10. Misrepresentation
and the imitation Of values are contrib
uting factors to the weakness Of the
market. Finance Minister Klotz consult
ed last evening with the official members
OF the bourse, and steps were taken to
support the market, but these had little
effect.
Rentes fell to S7.97. the lowest figure
since the German war scare Of 1890.
Financial leaders, who feel that the
slump is greatly exaggerated and I'M
justified by the present political situation,
are arranging to try to stem any further
panics next week.
The conservative press joins the finan-
ciers in a general warning against the
dangers of overexcitement of public opin-
ion and declares that fears OF q general
European war are greatly exaggerated.

Little Lessons in Efficiency.
From the Chicago News.

From the chicago News.
Using ones brains to direct ones work
is the basis of efficient service. Trained
thinking for workers in the mass is the
task Of the expert in efficiency Chicago
citizens are fortunate in having the BEN
eft OF such thinking In connection with
the many Investigations undertaken by
the division of efficiency in the civil serv-
Ice bureau.
Take a minor example. The city has
hundreds of men engaged I'm cleaning the
streets. The expert finds that there are
twenty-nine ways OF welding the brush
by which the street pavements are
cleaned-twenty-eight of them being
wrong ways. There is the sweeping
movement away from the workers the
Shaping of the brush on the pavement
at the end of the sweeping stroke and the
dragging back of the implement for am
other stroke. Thus is produced lost mo-
ton in plenty, with 80 per cent of unnec-
essary wear on the brush.
The efficiency expert takes hold of the
matter and has the brush lifted cleanly
back for the second stroke at the end OF
the first stroke. the shaping and the
dragging backward being eliminated. Null
tiply the gain in the efficiency of one man
by, say, 1900 and then decide whether
this little lesson in the street cleaning
service is worth while.
When the entire city service has been
combed over in this manner by conscien-
tious efficiency workers. big and little i'm
being put into effect as a re-
suit of their study of the hundreds of
problems, the sum total of benefits se-
cured should be large.

Co-0rdinating British States.
From the Cleveland Plain Dealer

Winston Churchilrs suggestion that
the British empire be transformed into a
federation OF self-governing states might
be taken seriously were 1t not for the
seemingly impending downfall Of the min
istry Of which he is a member. A union
that would make Ireland an Independent
state, that might separate Scotland and
Wales from England, and that would
make Australia, New Zealand, South At
RIGA, Canada and Newfoundland co-ordi-
nate parts of the federated British ma
ton, would unquestionably add to the
strength Of the great British unit. The
overseas dominions would lose the last
sense of dependency. and assume their
proper share in the governing of the
whole. Disseminated Ireland would be
given that complete self-government
which she demands and will always de-
mand. but would be in fact more closely
than ever united with the rest Of the
British nation. Whether Scotland and
Wales would be made separate states or
merely be considered as parts of the par
ent state of Great Britain would be a.
matter for the decision of the Scotch
and Welsh. However the details might
be worked out, the contamination of the
Churchill plan would place the world
hegemony OF the British empire on a safe
basis for many generations

Fads in Food.
from the Chicago Tribune

From the Chicago Tribune.
A man who has won considerable pub
licity as faddist in food theories was
taken to a hospital the other day In a
serious condition as q result Of his
method of living.
The man had announced that. % cents
a week was enough for a person to spend
on food. He set out to prove it by SUBJ
sisting on limited rations of oatmeal
crackers. The doctors now declare that
he brought himself to the verge of death
from starvation by this mode Of living.
Other faddists In the east recently
claimed fasting a cure for all sorts of
diseases They would substitute fasting
for the surgeons knife and the operating
table Usually the faddist proved to be
a man with Temperament" He also
knew the art Of the press agent. At tne
close Of a lengthy interview to the news
papers on how cancer or some equally
malignant disease could be cured by fast
ing. the man advertised a new novel or
play which he was just finishing.
Once these faddists got into the news
papers and advertised themselves thor
oughly they suddenly dropped out of the
public eye Among the nearest friends
it was known that they had returned to
the old-fashioned idea of three square
meals day.
