Drake at Cadiz
BY REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY.

THE cleaning out OF the Span
ish ships in Cadiz harbor by
the redoubtable Admiral
Drake, three hundred and twenty
six years ago. was one of the
tricks OF genius that is pointed to
with genuine pride by the Muse
Of History.
Drake. the Stonewali Jackson OF
the British Navy OF his day. had
Just been commissioned by his
Government TO get out upon the
high seas and do His Majesty Of
Spain all the harm he possibly
could. Now. nothing tickled Drake
so much as to be singing the
beard OF the King Of Spain" he
called his work against the Dons,
and when the aforementioned
order came to him the old sea dog
was as happy as a little boy with
his first pair of trousers on.
The Great Armada" which the
Spanish Monarch was gathering
for the conquest Of England. was
pretty near in ship-shape, and

attacking Cadiz at once. The
Queens Officer" next in COM
mand to Drake, protested, as did
some Of the other officers, but
Drake sent them back to their
ships with the order TO follow
him"
Straight into the harbor Drake
sailed, where he found himself in
the midst of more than hun
dred Spanish war vessels, a dozen
or more Of them "gallegs," the
torpedo boats of the day. But
the enemy was before him, his
commission was in his pocket,

and the rest given to the flames
But Drake was not satisfied yet.
In the iner harbor lay a splendid
galleon, belonging to Santa Cruz
himself, the COMMUNICATIVE chief
OF the Armada. Capturing that in
small boats and burning it, Drake
leisurely sailed out Of the harbor
with his prizes. having singed the
beard of the King of Spain to the
tune of about two million dollars,
reckoned in our money.

Unnatural Mothers.

1t cannot be too strongly reiterated
that maternal love does not necessar'
lily include wisdom. 1t Is natural" for
every mother to love her children, but
1t does not follow that she knows what
is best for them. The animal mother
does know by instinct; and we, con
tent to take our pattern of moSer
hood from the beasts, have imagined
that we needed nothing more.
We assume that every mother knows
how to care for her children; and, II
we only see her keeping at it inces
sanity, we never criticize the method
or results. We have urgent
need of the unnatural mother-the
mother who has added trained intel
lect to a warm heart; and, when we
have enough of them the rarest sound
on earth will be that now so pitifully

fuse to Use Them.

They are having little difficulty on
English railroads. Some few years ago
a number of indignant spinsters said
that it was foul outrage that wom-
en- should be required to travel in the
same compartments with men, and
although the railroad officials knew
we'll that nothing short Of staff of
anywhere else, they acceeded to the
demand and attached the ladies
only" label to the requisite number
of compartments. But now comes
new complication, and this time the
complaint is from the men, Traffic
has increased enormously, the trains
are crowded, and the straphanger has
become an institution But why, ask
the men, should we hang to straps,
why should we be packed like her
rings in a barrel, while the compart-
ments reserved for women are prac-
tically empty? For that is the fact.
The women will not travel in the
compartments reserved for them.
They would rather form part of the
perspiring multitude in the general
compartment than use the accommo-
dation that has been especially re-
served for them. Now if a man ven
lures to invade a ladies only" COM
partment he is speedily reminded of
his transgression by the stern hand
of authority. But the woman may
invade the smoker, and does invade
it, and has even been known to de-
mand the extinction of all pipes and

Want Two Engineers on Trains.

One Of the important measures to-
be introduced in the next Connecticut
legislature is a measure to provide
that there shall be two engineers for
every fast express train in this state.
The bill has the backing of the labor
unions and has for its chief argument
that it would be conducive to public
safety and would save the railroad
company much money in life and
property damages. The expense, it is
argued, can be looked at only in the
light of low price for a great public.
benefit.
Where there are two engineers, one
man could not interpret signals alone,
could not drive recklessly and could
not go to sleep, it was pointed out.
