Oil For BattIeShipS.

The last American battleship that
will burn coal has been built. The big
ones now building have no coal bunk
ers and no arrangement for burning
coal They are oil burners.
what is the advantage?" ! asked
United States naval officer.
There are many advantages In OIL,
he replied. "First we can steam farther
with a given number Of tons Of oil than
with the same number of tons Of coal.
We can also store the oil more advan-
tageously, for it will fill corners in
ship where coal could not be placed.
"A very big advantage, however. Is In
the reduced number Of men required to
handle the boilers. One man with oil
can take the place Of four men shovel
ing coal. Usually the oil Is sprayed
into the furnace. but there are several
methods of applying the OIL"
This officer said that the United
States will have some very, valuable
oiling stations in Alaska. Arrange
ments are already making to establish
oiling stations in place Of coaling sta
lions In various other parts OF the
world.-Philadelphia Ledger.

bower Of roses. He went inside. took a

him down for promotion.
"A man who will take such care of
company property would be a good

Charley Smith. father of Ben Smith,

professional baseball into Newark, N. J..
Charley Smith caught for semipro-
fessional team, while Ben played right
field. This is one Of the few cases
where a father and son played on the
same outfit. There are only two other
instances we can recall. One is when
Jim O'Rourke, the old Giant. played
with his son on the Bridgeport team in
the Connecticut league. The other Is
when the father of Kid Carsey, the old
Philadelphia and st. Louis pitcher,
taught the Kid to pitch when he was a

The Mexican Troubles.

Il would seem that the Querta ad-
ministration with its iron hand and
determination to quell insurgency
in any guise presented is drawing
upon itself more troubles than IT
can overcome successfully.
While Mexico is nominally Re-
public, it is governed as despotically
as the most relentless of despotisms.
IL is more than RussianiZed. In
Mexico there are practically but two
classes, the rich and well-tO-dO and
the warking class and poems who
are ignorant and are held in subjec-
ton as if they were slaves. For
years they have held the hope OF
the promises of the lettering OF
their condition, but all these cher
ished anticipations have proven TO
be decisions. II is therefore not
surprising when these classes rally
to the standard of any sO-called
revolutionist, who promise them
liberty and prosperity, and above all
the facilities for the education of
their children:
The Mexicans have always been
in turmoil, and it was only during
the reign of Forfirio Diaz that this
country enjoyed a period of peace
and a semblance Of good order and
prosperity which was shared by the
better classes, while the poems Ia
bored and idled in their hope OF
deliverance. If history is to repeal
itself in Mexico, the semblance OF
peace can not be upheld as pro-
grammed by Querta but as was
maintained by the elder Diaz.
II is apparent that Querta's
mailed hand is not deterring the
revolutionists who are breaking Out
in fresh places.
The perplexing issue is what shall
be or what should be done with
Mexico. II the United States inter-
vene, there will folio wa war that
may not end in years, and finally
after the subjugatio nof Mexico by
conquest at the cost of thousands OF
men and millions Of money, the
Mexican troubles would still be 3
source of worry to the United
States.
Is there q statesman who can sug-
gest an intelligent solution OF The
Mexican troubles?

HuM0R OF THE DAY
The Pillow.

On a sofa at twilight a wee debutante
Held a pillow, a pillow, a pillow.
And / said to her: Little one. what DO
you want
With a pillow, a pillow, a pillow?
Is it longing for company makes you ad-
To that bundle of cotton and tapestry
queer?'
But she spoke not a word az she snug
gled up near
Her pillow. her pillow. her pillow.
I unused to myself as she sat there alone:
D that pillow. that pillow. that pill
low!
Why, surely should have the respect she
has shown
To a pillow. q pillow, piliow!
For here was a chance that never should
miss,
With the time and the place and the prin
cess like this!
And my heart went ker-thump! when
thought Of the bliss
OF tho pillow. the pillow. the pillow.
So cried. Il am sure rs ! look at your
face
And the pillow. the pillow. tho pillow.
That you wouldn't object II l traded my
place
With your pillow. your pillow. your pill
low!'
Now. although the fair maiden protested
some more,
Twas a dangerous spot for a young bach
elor,
But I fought for my rights. and threw

Auckland has doubled, and the city is
today the metropolis Of New Zealand

Australasia. Although the coming ex-
position Is not advertised as 'fnterna-

to exhibits coming from abroad. The
United States has total annual trade
with New Zealand of about $40, $50. 900.

Not Enough Goatskins,

The present demand for goat kid
skins exceeds anything Of the kind be-
fore known. and the remotest places
in India, South America and Europe
and everywhere else goats are kept are
now visited by collectors to obtain
them. This demand arises from the
recent discovery Of new methods OF
treating the skins, which not only
make them substitute for calf kid
as shoe leather. but also render them
suitable for US in dress trimming.
When specially dyed and finished they
find great favor with dressmakers and
are used for vests, strappings, pipings.
blouses and even for underskirts for
country wear. They also play part
In recent millinery.-New York Trib-
une.

LIGHT AND FLEXIBLE
SPRING HATS.
Made Of Such Materials as
Chip and Japanese Straw.

Japanese straw forms many Of the
modssh hats this spring and, owing to
its lightness Of weight and flexible tex
ture, bids fair to crowd some Of the
other straws into the background.
White chip shapes. velvet trimmed.
are numerous and often very attrac-
tive. They are fashioned with close.
upturned brims and rounds crowns
One French milliner has used these
shapes with no trimming save artistic
knots and outstanding loops Of velvet
ribbon.
A turban Of white chip had the edge
Of the rolled brim trimmed with black
velvet about three-quarters Of an inch
In width, while ut the right side front
It was ornamented with u knot and high
standing wired loops of the velvet to
give the proper height
Included In the same display was the
smartest Of little French hats In white
chip on turban lines. with the rolled
brim faced, with black velvet. Direct
" in front was placed the new dagger
ornament OF Jet
The same milliner also showed hat
Of chip much on the line of the roll
brim French sailor. with brim rolling
slightly upward, but much longer at
the back than at the front sides.
There was no trimming save little
lunches Of tiny roses, set closely to-
gether all around the low round crown.
No two punches were the same color,
but they covered the range Of all the
delicate tints, melting into each other
without q single jarring note. This
model was simple enough so far as
Nne was concerned. but an infallible
color sense was needed for the sue
cessful shading Of the floral trimming.
Another hat, narrower of brim and
more aggressive. was Of chip. 1t was
built much on the order of the English
walking hat. but the outline was sof-
tened by a dull blue ostrich feather
which encircled the crown. One large
feather was poised directly at the front
Of the crown.
Touches Of cerise appear In the
spring millinery, and in some cases the
entire hat is made OF cerise. A jaunty,
small shape had a full crown of cerise
taffeta, and q large bow of cerise tat
feta trimmed the back Of the hat. The
turned up brim was Of cerise straw.

the movement was launched, and 1t
was Isaac Butt, counsel for the Fenian
