creusot. the Krupps of France.

The celebro led works of the Creu-
sot, similar to Krupps, Germany, were
originally organized for engineering
purposes by William Wilkinson, an
Englishman, in the year 1885, The
works then belonged to a company,
In which Louis XVI had an interest,
and were known as the Royal foun-
dry. During the revolution the Creu-
sot~ works were nationalized by the
government, and during the empire
Napoleon kept them running for guns
and ammunition for the army. After
1915 ornaments no longer paid at the
Creusot and it became bankrupt. A
new company, assisted partly by Eng
lish capital, was formed, and main
tanned the works until the present pro
prietors, who have name more Teu-
tonic than French-Schneider -ac-
CURED them in 1886. 1t is now the
third generation of the Schneiders
who control the Creusot, and, like
Krupps, they have established several
allied undertakings in connection with
the production of ornaments and en-
cheering machinery.

SEA FIGHT SPOILED FOREVER
At Least so Far as Being Favorite
Theme for Artists Is
Concerned.

Truman H. Newberry's comments on
us that a favorite theme of the artist
the sea battle-is spoiled forever.
Modern vessels fight at from ten to
seventeen miles, if they fight at all,
and thrilling pictures such as Jones,
Perry, Farragut, Nelson and Dewey
have inspired probably will not be
painted again.
Marine warfare has become very
largely a matter of hide-and-seek any
way. SO far has the gunmaker out
stripped the armorplate builder that
were equally matched vessels to en-
gage, few seconds firing would re-
duce millions of dollars worth of
ships to scap-iron SHAMELESS
And when the skulking menace of
the submarine is considered we can
understand how completely the ira
ditions of sea fighting have been up
set.
1t was predicted that modern war
fare on land would be stripped ofIall
it's former aspects, but we are told of
bayonet charges, of trenches 40 yards
apart, of steel helmets and even of full
suits of armor being used. Yet on the
sea what destruction has been
wrought has been through methods
far removed from the old-fashioned
stand-up fight through which heroes of
other days won their fame.

Woman's Part in War,

"In Germany, where sobbing on the
street is forbidden by law, women still
sob for their loved ones who have died
at the front, and where the wearing Of
mourning is also the subject of regula-
ton women wear a badge of sorrow
upon their hearts"
These were among features brought
out in relief in the picture of condi-
tons in Berlin painted in New York
by Miss Evelyn Newman, delegate to
the recent peace conference at The
Hague.
Miss Newman visited Berlin at the
close of The Hague conference. She
said that often soldiers could be seen
marching through the streets in their
bright uniforms, but it was the women
who were seen everywhere.
There are women working in the
streets, picking up refuse, and in the
railroad stations, in the shops and in
the factories" she said IT stopped at
club, the Deutsche Lyceum, that has
been organized by women, furnished
by women and operated by them And
yet it is said that women have no
place in war.
I'm the three days / was in Berlin |
did not see a smile nor hear a sound
of rejoicing except on the children's
playground. Sorrow has descended
upon the city. The government oaly
allows women who have lost a hus4
band or son in battle to wear heavy
mourning in Berlin. Yet | saw many
in deep mourning, and black and
white, symbols of sorrow, are the pre-
vailing colors in the city. l met one
woman who had lost eight of her men
husband, brothers and sons. Hers
was a face burned out with sorrow"
Miss Newman told of visiting a
great German hospital, and she added:
eff even Roosevelt could see that half
slaughtered humanity he would stop
arguing for war"

Hint for camping and fishing par

the annoying experience of finding
yourselves miles from a store and all
the matches in your possession so
damp that they could not be used.
A fact worth knowing is that matches
can be made waterproof without in
jury by dipping them in very hot
melted paraffin, allow them to cool
and they are ready for use. The par
ATTN does not interfere with their use

RADICAL CHANGES IN CHINA
Republican Government Doing Many
Things, Among Others Breaking
Through Historic Wall.

The great wall which has surround
ed the city of Picking for many CEN
turtles is undergoing an unusual
metrical form, with nine gates lead
ing through the great wall Each
side has two gates except the front,
where an extra central gate-the
Chien-men-leads directly into the for
hidden city, the central Enclosure of
Peking This Chien-men, or front
gate, is the one most seriously crowd
ed with traffic; and yet tradition up
to the present day has never permit
ted it to be enlarged nor any other
gate to be broken near it in order to
relieve the congestion of rickshaws,
carts, donkeys, motor cars, camels
and heavy-laden human beasts of bur-
den-coolies.
The present republican government
is by no means SO superstitious as the
old exclusive Manchu regime, but
Yuan Shi-kai must take into considera-
ton the superstitions of the people.
The gate through which former en-
perors passed in and out of Picking
was opened Immediately after the re-
public was established; but only few
days after it had been thrown open
to the public a mutiny of the troops
took place in Picking, and much of
the town was looted. The cause of
the calamity was laid to the credit Of
the newly opened gate, whereupon it
was Immediately closed and has never
since been swung upon its hinges.
Since the republic has been well
established a number of changes in
the minor inner walls have taken
place, notably two new gates having
walls; and as no calamity has be-
fallen the city, the government is now
making bold efforts to relieve the
congestion at the Chien-men by break
ing two new gates through the great
wall.
The wall is forty or fifty feet high
and forty or fifty feet thick The
work is a difficult task because the
excellent mixture of cement of former
days has fastened the bricks like
stone together with remarkable firm
ness. 1t is expected that the sections
Of another smaller wall will be found
within this large wall, the smaller one
probably being that which Marco Polo
described in the account of his visit
to the famous capital of Kublai Khan.

Sea Sleds for Coast Defense.

Sea sleds are the latest craft to be
considered by the United States navy
for coast defense work The navy is
experimenting with a half-motor boat,
half-hydroaeroplane, which neither
flies over the water nor cuts through
it, but skips along it's surface. A24-
foot boat of this type has made 361a
miles an hour at a navy test. 1t is
hoped to obtain a boat that will carry
men at SIS or so miles an hour. 1t is
said 200 of such craft could be built
at the cost of single scout cruiser
and would be much more effective.

rate twice that attained by the most
efficient steam locomotives formerly
