The redingote will continue to hold
its own, undoubtedly, but the short
jacket or blouse will Ise preferred by
the majority of women. The open

of the button is of chenille thread

GREAT SURGEON RETIRES.
Sir Frederick Treves Tells Why Ile
Gave Up His Work.
"I gave it up because there was
too much to do, Performing big
operations every morning makes exis-
tence rather trying. I got tired of
my duties; they bored me to death;
so after six and twenty, years of
practice I retired."
This is the way in which Sir Fred-
erick Troves, the eminent surgeon,
explains In an interview appearing
in a London journal how he came to
practically give up his profession.
"Not that my labors were break-
ing me down," he goes on to explain,
"Nothing would, I think, do that.
I have no nervous system, not hav-
ing had need of one, and I have
never had to keep to my bed,"
"I was invariably downstairs at 5
o'clock, I breakfasted at half -past
seven, and almost without exception,
there was an operation at nine.
"Then, right up to one o'clock,
there wore patients to see. After
that I went out, and having lunched
in my carriage, devoted the after-
noon to consultations. When did I
get )some? AL all hours, This, as I
have said, was a sort of existcnde
of which anybody was liable to gro*
tired."
One of Sir Frederick's personal
triumphs was mentioned by tum last
week at the sheeting of the Royal
Medical and Chirurgical Society.

SPEEDIER VESSELS FOR THE

Lord Brassey, 10 the course of a
lecture to the Institution of (11v11
Engineers on metal shipbuilding, Bald
the latest oflielul statistics showed
England held a commanding position
numc1iral strength of its fleet, hut
the rapidity with which vessels be-
came obsolete made it imperative
that. tho designs and principles of
construction of future vessels should
receive careful attention,
.Lorin firassey thought they should
earefilty watch the work in progress
for foreign navies, Grid he instanced
four vessels or the Vittorio 1)10naa-
uel typo now building for the Italian
navy. In the growth of din1en810115,

said, and in the hands of her stt111ul
110y ac'11111COB the growing dimen-
sions had given more than a propor-
tionate gain in Oghling efficiency,
Mit ou the other side various argu-
ments could be advanced that in
naval hattles numbers must tell, and
if units %vete lens costly more of
them could be befit,
DANGERS STILL PRESENT,
Increase of size gave no immunity
from the dangers of darkness, strand-
ing, or collision. From 1')101 or tor-
pedo or huhmarino mines conning
tower's could give no protection to
the commanders.
Lord Tiresscy was of the °Mellon
that It should nut be dinWult to de-
sign a high speed vessel of the toe-
peclo-boat destroyer class, heavily
armored, armed with torpedo tubes,
and with one heavy gun in the bow's.
Malty of these could be built for the
cost of one battleship, and they
might do more than heavy ships to
decide the issue of a hard fought
day. Ile also suggested that some
British battleship might with advan-
tage be similar to those now being
built for Italy and Clcrmany with a
displacement of about 18,000 tons,
Without advocating a revolution in
shipbuilding policy or desiring that
England hack a single beg ship less
on the navy list, he contended. that
in the future shipbuilding some vese
sets should be included of a type
suitable for narrow and shallow wa-
ters,
THE SUBMARINE,
As to the submarine, Lord Brassey
thought it essentially a defensive
weapon. It was valuable for harbor
defence, but its ability to navigate
the seas had to be proved.
As to cruisers, he considered the
latest British examples would • well
boar comparison with those under
construction elsewhere. Two types
Were necessary—namely, the scouts
of the fleet, in which spend and coal
endurance were essential qualities,
and cruisers for the protection of
commerce, in which fighting efficiency
must bo combined with these quali-
ties. The latter typo must be large.
With regard to scouting cruisers,
he pointed out that the teat' in the
Par East had shown that cruise's
having no protection by vertical ar-
mor hardly could be reckoned as
combatants.

This statement aroused his hearers
at once, '`You rton't expect us to

"It's the solemn truth," rejoined
the other. "I can testify to it

and can prove it by every member of

"Sonne animals can count, This has

Tho late Marquis, it will be remem-

successes as his country's ambassa-

1896 he closed his great diplomatic
career. A great man. Hear how
he got angry with the Sultan:
"Ile (the Sultan) said something
about England wishing to acquire a
Protectorate over Turkey. Upon
this I turned upon him in great
wrath, and told him I could not ae-
eept such a statement, and required
to know the grounds upon which it
was founded. Ile said that it was
what other people suggested, upon
which, with great warmth, I told
hits he was surrounded in his Palace
by people who knew nothing of Eur-
ope and European politics, or of the
political forces of the world, and
that they were driving him and his
Empire to the devil, I could not
help thinking that the Sultan was
rather pleased than otherwise at
hearing his friends abused. We then
both calmed down, and 1 led the con-

But everything concerning Russia
is now of interest, and Sir Alfred
Lyall writes:
"0n February 181h, 1880, Lord

Ambassador, when Monsieur de

an attempt to blow up the
Emperor's apartments. This broke
tip the party, and. Lord Dufferin hur-
ried to the Palace. where the Em-
peror, aceoinl.anicd by the Duchess
of 'Edinburgh, came out to speak
with him. Xis tirst words were:
'Providence ltas again mercifully sav-
ed rue."
In a Ielter to Lord Salisbury de-
scribing the dreadful alTak', Lord
Dufforin wrote:
"Ile (the Emperor) then told hue
that the Empress was aaleop when
the catastrophe occurred—that the
noise had not awoke her. and that
She, was still unaware of what had

A mine had been fixed in the base-
ment under the room where the Em-
peror WAS to dine. But the Ozer
was late, and had not arrived. While
he escaped eca1111ess,- eight soldiers of
the guard were killed and forty -live
wounded,
One can imagine the undignified
plight of the Russian general as re-
vealed by the following extract:
"Rumors had been abroad for
