Vessels of a Great Navy.
[Special Correspondence.]
PHILADELPHIA, May 19. -Twenty y ars
ago, when Spain seized the Virginius nd
arrogantly refused' to make amends, ur
naval authorities had a very differ nt
problem from that which would confr rit
them now in case of war with the Do s.
Then Spain had a naval force vvhioh, al-
though . by no means first class, was c n-
siderably superior to anything we eo Id
have brought against it Today the sit
tion is is different.
War between Spain and the Uni ed
States would be a naval war. Our are y
rnight be used to supplement the forces of
the Cuban insurgents, but we would r-
tain]y never think of invading Spain, a d
even the SPaniards would hardly attei
to carry the war into.our country. Cu
would be the objective point of all opo
tions, both military and naval. If Sp
could not keep up the stream of enen,a
supplies she has been pouring into Cu
that island would immediately fall 1
our hands or into those of the insurgen

t-
edly.Spain must be Able to dominate the
high seas against any force we could bri g
against her. .
What would be the •result of a cont st
for the command of the seas between th se
two powers?
With at least as good officers and men
as Spain and under no disadvantage as to
supplies it is -evident tbat if we can mateh
them ship for ship wo can have a reascm-
able expectation of being able to overooMe
them at sea.
s
It rnay be well to describe, as shortly '7
possible, the different classes of sbi
which make up a navy.
Battleships.
First is the battleship, big, powerfril,
usually slow moving and carrying power-
ful guns. She has thick armor and is pro-
vided with numerous tubes for launching
torpedoes. Battleships are usually of 8,000
to 12,000 tons. Next to the battleship in
power is the armored cruiser, of 6,000 to
8,000 tone, of lighter armor and armament
and greater speed. Next to the armored
cruiser Is the sic) called protected cruiser,
not much Inferior in size to her armored
sister, but without armor. She has a
curved steel deok to protect ber machinery
and ammunition and usually steol shields
to guard the guns and gunners. Next are
the cruisers, which usually 3nake up the
numerical , strength of a fleet, varying
from 1,000 to 8,000 or 4,000 tons and with-.
out protective decks or gap shields. After
them come the small gunboats, the torpedo
boats and the dispatch boats.
Spaba has but one first class battleship,
the Pelayo, of 10,000 tons. Her vitals are
protected by steel armor of 18 inches, and
her guns by 19 inches. She carries four
Mammoth guns, two of la% and two of 11
inches caliber. Besides 'this powerful main
battery she has 12 five inch rapid fire guns,
12 machine guns, and her 17 knots' speed
make the ram with which she is equipped
a formidable weapon el offense. A rapid
fire gun, by the way, is a gun that uses
fixed ammunition, powder and ball in one
piece just as in the ordinary small arm,
and Is arranged for the rapid working of
the breech mechanism. A machine gun Is
a smaller piece, either autematio in its
loading and firing or manipulated by a
orank. The rapidity of some of these guns
is astonishinge1,000 or more shots .per
minute being by no means unbsual. Seven
automobile torpedoes oan be, silently sent
from the Pelayo's sides and bows against
an unsuspecting adversary.
To meet this really formidable monster
we may take our pick of four new battle-
ships -the Indiana, the 'Iowa, the Massa-
chusetts and the Oregon. The first named,
the Indiana, is in commission, and we
will suppose her pitted against the Pelayo.
She is 10,000 tons in weight and has 18
inches of armor on -her belt and 17 before
her guns, a little less in thickness than
that of the Pelayo, it will be observed, but
more modern and much better, so that we
may fairly conclude that in the matter of
armor the Indiana is in no wise inferior to
her supposed agonist. In guns she is
vastly superior, for she has four 13 inch
guns in her turrets that are vastly superior
to the four heavy guns of the Pelayo. Be-
sides these she has eight 8 inch guns,
which, together with her four 13 bash .
guns give her a main. battery that is be-
lieved to be superior to that of any armored
ship of anything like her size in the world.
Her main battery is supplemented by 6 four
ineh rapid fire guns, 20 six pounders, 6 one
-pounders and 4 machine guns. She also
has a ram, six torpedo tubes and oan steam
16 knots. Even the uninitiated can read-
ily see that the Indiana should be able to
make reasonably short work of Spain's
battleship.
• Armored Cruisers.
Next in size to the Pelayo Spain has the
armored oroiser Carlos 17, She weighs
9,000 tons and is provided with 10 inch
armor on her turrets and 2 inches on her
sides. She carries two 11 inch and eight
534 inch guns, 'besides the Usual Secondary
battery. The Oregon, sister ship to the
Indiana, weuld easily give a good account
of a pair of Ouch ships.
Spain wohld next fall . back Upon het

:.
modern steel cruisers, of which the Infanta
Maria Theresa -is a sample. She is of 7,000
tons and is oapeble of steamihg 20 knots.
She has 12 inches of steel armor on her sides
and 1034 inches before her gulps, of which
she carries two of 11 inches, on rapid fire
534 inches, eight 6 pounders an,d eight 3
pounders. She has eight to pedo tubes.
The other two armored cruise s are the old
fashioned broadside ironclads, Itho Numan-
°la and the Vitoria. They ha el only five
inches of armor, and each minim; eight 10
inch muzzle loading armstroug rifles and
eight of 8 inches. If we add to these the
antiquated monitor Puig-cerda, which is
probably unseaworthy, we will have all
the armored skips that Spain could bring
against us.
To meet this really warlike fleet we
roust turn to our armoredships. The
Massachusetts atid the Iowaare. like the
Indiana in most points, although more
• modern, and therefore m re powerful.
Next we could oall upon th second class
battleships Maine and Texa , more heavily
armored, just as fist and with more pow -

erfal guns than the Spanish cruisers. Next
would come the armored cruiser New York,
singly more than a match for any one of
_the Spaniards.' To theso we could add the
Io w freeboard monitors, Puritan, of 6,000
tone, and the Monddnock, Terror, Mon-
terey, Miantonomoh and Amphitrite, of
about 4,000 tons each. They are not quite
to fast as the Spanish cruisers are claimed
to be but they are In every way more
lUnarmored Fleet.
When, we come to a comparison of the
nnarrnored fleets of the two powers, the
superiority of the United States Is even
more apparent. Spain has, all told, about
80 unarniored ships of all classes, many of
them so old as to be almost unserviceable,
and 11 of them aro torpedo boats. Proba-
bly first in efficiency of Spain's unarmored
Peet are the two modern steel cruisers, Le-
panto and Alfonso XIII. They were
launched in 1891-2 and are said to retake
20 knots. Their armaments consist of
four 8 inch and six 5 inch guns in the
main battery, and they have besides six
3 pounders, six 1 pounders and thre3
machine guns each. Each also has five
iorpedo tubes. Against them we could
send, with every prospect of victory, the
protected cruisers Philadelphia and New-
ega-
BATTLESHIP IOWA.
ark. They are of 4,200 tons each, equal
In speed to the Spaniards and carry guns
that, although somewhat lighter in caliber
than those of their opponents, would be
much more effective in action against un -
armored ships. They edch have 12 six inch
guns and 4 six pounders, 4 three pounders,
2 one pounders and 7 machine guns, as
-well as 6 torpedo tubes-.
Next In order would come Spain's two
cruisers, the Reina Cristina and the
Reina Mercedes, of 3,000 tons each and
built in 1887. They can steep 17 knots
and are armed with six 5 inch, 13 qUick
• firing and live machine guns. Eacb of them
has five torpedo tubes. The Cincinnati
and the Raleigh, of 3,200 tons each, with
their vastly more powerful batteries of one
6 inch, ten 5 inch rapid fire, 14 smaller
rapid fire and two machine guns, would be
easily able to take good care of these two
Spaniards.
Spain has also eight small iron vessels
of about 1,100 tons enoh, whioh we would
call gunboats. They were built about 1888,
and the Conde (JO Venadito may be taken
as a fair sample ef them. Shecarries four 5
inch and two 6 pounders, which, with five
machine guns and tWo torpedo tubes, make
,up her offensive force. The others of this
class, are the Cristobal Colon, Don An-
tonio Ulloa, Don Juan de Austria, In-
fanta Isabel, Isabel II, Isla de Cuba and
Isla do Luzon. To meet them, and easily
overmatching them, we have the Detroit,
Montgomery and Marblehead, of 2,100 tons
each. To these we could add the three
steel gunboats Bennington, Concord and
Yorktown, of 1,700 tons eaoh. These six
vessels aro mud*, a match fora dozen such
unit as the Conde de Yen/IAA°, but in
order to make the numbers equal we will
add to our side the two smaller gunboats
Castine,and Machias, of 1,200 tons each
end carrying eight 4 inch rapid fire, four 6
pounder and two 1 pounder guns.
Small Vessels.
Against the remainder of the Spanish
navy, which consists of the three wooden
cruisers Aragon, Castilla and Navarra,
built in 1880, and armed with six 6 inch
guns; the four small iron gunboats El
Cario, General Lezo, Concha and Mag01-
lanes, of about 500 tons each; the steel
transport Alfonso XII, similar in size and
armament to the Alfonso XIII, 11 torpedo
boats and two dispatch boats, we oould send
a fleet in many respeots almost equal to
the whole Spanish navy. This would con-
sist of the two so called "pirates," the
Columbia and Minneapolis, of 7,500 tons
each; the Baltimore, sister ship to the Chi-
cago, although of somewhat different arm-
ament; the San Francisco, Charleston, At-
lanta and Boston, all highly efficient pro -
tooted oruisers; the Lancaster, an old fash-
ioned wooden frigate modernized; the
Marion and the Mohican, wooden cruisers,
of 1,900 tons; the Adams, Alliance, Es-
sex and Enterprise, tho Thetis and the
steel dispatch boat Dolphin. If these were
not enough, although they surely would
be, we could add the baker's dozen of sin-
gle turret monitors, most of whiall I are yet
capable of good service, aand still h ve left
the 900 ton modern gunboats Pet ol and
Bancroft, and the dynamite cruiser Vesu-
vius and the torpedo boats Alarm Erics-
son, Cushing and Stiletto. It is in this
arm, and this only, that we are In any
way inferior to Spain. She has a number
of first olass high speed torpedo boats, one
of which- has made a speed of about 24
knots and nearly all of which, with dar-
ing commanders, would be capable of
greatly annoying our fleet.
The result -of the foregoing examination
of the relative naval forces of tho two pow-
ers is enough tie satisfy the most e acting
that we have absolutely nothing to feat
from a naval war with Spain. N4i doubt
we would meet with stubborn res stance
and probably with some disaster, but the
ultimate result could be nothing else but
a complete victory.

Pantagruel Taught to Ride. j
In the days of Rabelais that mirror of
media3valism, horsemanship had already
made coiseiderable strides. In theeduca-
tion of pantegruel riding was US be a
prominent feature from very earlieet child-
hood -fit by means of a wooden; horse,
and later, on reaching years 'of discretion,
under the tuition of an esouyer gyMnaste,
he is to practice all the feats of horeeman-
ship to whieh the then evolving Menage
had attained.
"And with them a young gentleman of
Touraine, named the Esquiee Gymnast,
who taught ilim the art of riding. Chang-
ing then hi 's clothes, he ro e a Naples
courser, Dutch Roussin, a Sp nish gennet,
a barbed or trapped steed, the a lightrfieet
horse, unto whom he gave 450 carieres,
made him go to the high sau ts, bounded
in the air, free a ditch with a skip, leap
over a stile or pail, turn shor in a ring
both -to the right and left ban . As for the
prancing flourishewand slaw Ing povisms
for the bettor 641:1siling of th horse, com-
ma:0y used in riding, none did them bet -
Ser than he. The voltiger of Ferrara was

one Imre* to another without putting foot
to ground, and these horses were called
desultories. He could likeeri from either

'horseback without stirrups and rate the
horse' at his p_oleaanza witbout a.bridle."-

evc ntually the disease conquers a d the

Ont., had given her pare-nts great
anxiety, a.s for eleven years she had
been a sufferer from nervous troubles.

Not changed .but glorified 1 Oh be uteoes language
Per those who weep,
Mourning the lose of some dear face departed,
Falling asleep.
Hu- hed into silence, never more to omfot
Tee heart e of men,
Gone, like the aunshine of another iountry,
Beyond our ken.
Oh dearest dead, we saw thy white
13elelnd the face,
Bright with beauty and celestial gi
Of an emmortal grace.
What wonder we stumble, faint and weeping,
And sick with fears,
Since thou haat left us -all alone with Borrow,
Arid blind with tears?
Can it be peeelifie no words shall welcome
Otir coming feet?
How will it look, that face we have heriseed,
ul shining
When next we meet?
Will it be ehanged, so glorified and
T 'at we shall know it not ?
Will there e nothing that will sey,
And I have not forgot ?"
Oh faithless heart,the same loved tape transfigured
Shall meet thee there, i
Less sad, 1 es wistful, in immortal beauty'

In the oleo morning of that other =entry,
In Paradise, ,
With the same face that we have ioved and

Let no be p tient, we who mourn, with weeping,
So a vanished face,
The Lord h th taken, but to add more beauty
An1 a diviner grace.

And we shell find once more beyond earth's sorrows;
Beyond the skies,
In the fair city of the " sure foundations,"
Those heavenly eyes, .
With the same welcome, shining through their
sweetness,
That met us here;
Eyes, from 'whose beaute God has banished weeping,
And wiped away the tear.
Think of us dearest one, while o'er Lire's watere
We seek the land,
Missing thy voice, thytouch, and the truo helping
Of thy pure hand,
Stilethrouge the storm and tempest, safely anchored
Just on the other side,
We find cloy dear face looking througie Death's
shadows,
s'ohanged, but glorified.

LortooN July 6. -The despatch from
Detroit with reference to the cure from
Bright's disease and blood poisiee of Mr.
Largley, of this city, by the use of Dodd'a
Kidney Pills, has recalled the wonderfUl
facts of the case to the citizens, among whom
Mr. Langl y is well known. It hasaemind-
ed them tlhat Mrs. Langley 1111104 others
also) made an equally wonderful recovery.
The use of the pills however has become so
universal here, and there has been so
many ins ances in which they been used
with beneficial results that ,a similiar ease
would ha dip excite as Much interest
now as it Iid then when the medieine was
leas know
Wha is Hidden in Bananas.
When y u see a banana'you think of it
only as fruit to eat, but in the 'West
Indies th natives make use of the whole
tree. Th young leaves are used to shade
the eoffe and cocoa seedlings from the
fierce rays of the sun. The young, unopened
leaves are used by doctors and nurses as a
dressing o ,er a blister. The dried stalks of
-the old le ves are made into twine and the
leaf is ade into bexes. In twine,
the
ashes of t e leaves and the stalks are used
as soap in washing, aed a solution is used
as a salt. The juice and skin of the fruit
and leaf a e used as blackening; the juice of
the fruit in some countries is good for indel-
ible ink.
The banana in Java has a substance on
the under part of the leaf that is made into
a valnable wax that is -exported. In an-
other coontry the ashes of the fruit and
leaves is Used for dyeiing. Banana fibre is
used in mking manilla beam, from which
rope andi co age are made. From some
kinds of o d rope a paper is made that is
used for rraping.
From naniUa hemp, in Switzerland,a hate
braid is nade that is as fine as the hat-biaid
made fro straw.
You se4 the banana is an important aril-
cle of co mem.
