Torpedo Craft. The S|>aniwh war so far has not shown that torpedo boats and torpedo boat de sfcoy.'t* are the terrible naval weapons they have been supimsed. The question is vet to be determined, however, whether •the inactivity of these craft belonging to the Spanish foe was because of the ineffi ciency of their officers and crews, or whether the th.xvry yf the torpedo boat is a toise one. thinks the Toledo Bkale. The T error ma.le a sortie out of the iharteor of San Joan de Porto Rico a few days agw. but the auxiliary cruiser St. J'aul. entirely unarmored, spet'dily ren dered her helpless, ami she was rowed back into rhe harbor in a sinking condition. The two torpedo boat destroyers. Plu ton and Furor, of Cervsra's fleet, were en gag.sl by the |ittle Gloucester. She was formerly J. I‘ierpont Morgans ya.Qit Cor sair. \\ ithout any annoy protection, and "..a no gun larger than six-pound repaid bie. the Gloucester destroyed both Spanish boats and sent them burning upon the bench. Then' does not seem to have been any effort made to launch torpedoes, either Hom :ie Spanish l>oats or from any the Vessels of the American fleet which is sup plied with torpedo tubes. In fact, if any torp*-do.-s have been used in the present war. the fact has not been ascertained. Certainly no damage has b* n done. So far the demonstration has been of tke superior value of the swiftest projected cruisers The iKHtleships are too slow, be cause of their great weijjht; the torpedo boats are too vulnerable. Being without Armor in "tder to obtain the highest pos sible speed, they eannot stand a well directed fire, even from small iwoderu jruns. Brigadier Bill says it makes him tired to see so many young men wanting com missions in the .u-my when “they should be proud to enlist as privates.” How now, has- his excellency given up all hope of military fame for himself? A Pathetic Incident. That is a pathetic story which comes from the Ladrones ae illustrating the plight of the Spanish governor general of the Ladrone Islands. He rowed out in a gig in full uniform to the United States steamer Charleston and apologized for not returning what he supposed was a salute to the Spanish flag. He explained that he was out of powder. The governor general •was taken on board and as gently as pos sible the situation was explained to him: rhe people of ike United States and the kingdom of Spain were at war and the governor general was a prisoner. His ex cellency had not heard of the war, knew nothing of events for the past ninety days; ■wondered why his mail had been delayed for three months, and gracefully accepted the situation. ~ It is not the province of brave men and I victorious to withhold the tribute of de- ’ served praise for the magnificent bravery of a conquered fop. Therefore our victo- ! rioue commanders are but following the ' dictates of noble manhood in their honest expressions of admiraition for the splendid , courage displayed by Admiral Cervera in his desperate struggle off Santiago, rightly declares the Memphis Scimetar. There is no shame in such a defeat as the Spanish admiral met, aliieit so crushing and over- i whelming; but there is an added glory to the American victory when it is apparent that the enemy was of sueh magnificent metal. Mrs. Radle, a widow S 4 years old. living in the eastern suburbs of fxirr. Mich., pur cha.-<d a bicycle last week and it is said that she has been making rapid progress j in learning to ride. For years she walked • to North floor to attend church services. * but on account of her declining strength * «be has now adopted the wheel as the easier means to get to church. Somehow we can’t help feeling that the above ought to have a Mole St. Nicholas date. There arc 2,200 daily and 15.000 weekly papers published in the United States, and ■ twenty-three different languages, other i than English, are represented in the news- i paper press of this country.—Rome Tri- j bune. As surprising as the above figures are they are not half so much so as the fact that the Tribune did not add to them the statement that Rome can boast of the best paper in the lot. The London Spectator gives the follow ing opinion as to the character of our Spanish foes: “A Spaniard is the kind of man who always leaves his revolver un loaded, and, discovering ;he fact, walks to his death unarmed lest anybody should suppose he is afraid.” Lookout for another naval sensation tomorrow. Sunday seems to be a favorisi? day with our navy. It is a cold day when the Alfonso XII. fails to be oaptured or sunk. We are likely to hear from Itewey again nt any moment. A Narrow I‘lNenpr.

Four doctors gave me up, saying I could only live a short time. I gave myself up to my savior, determined if I could not stay with my friends on earth I would meet my absent ones above.

Interesting Information About These For midable Weapons. Washington, July 9.—<With the arrival of the Americans in Cuba a new factor in the war appears—'the serge guns. The beseiging forces are coni)x>sed of in fcintry, cavalry, dismounted cavalry and light artillery batteries of the, United States army. The work of the last named arm of the service will .be of high impor tance. The heavy seige guns used are of three varieties —seven inch seige mortars, seven inch .Beige howitzers and five inch br,*!teh loading seige guns, mounted in their car riages on heavy wooden platforms, behind earthworks or emplacements. Heavy sand bags will be used for this purpose. The five inch seige rifle is used for straight firing against a city's defenses when it is desired to destroy the earth works or masonry. The seven inch seige howitzers and the mortars are used for high angle firing. They will drop shells end shrapnel! behind the intrenchments into the midst of the enemy. The charge of the five inch seige gun is twelve and a half pounds of hexagonal powder with a projectile weighing forty five pounds (including high explosiv.es;) for the seven inch howitzer the charge is ten pounds of hexagonal powder ejecting a missile of 105 pounds weight, and for the seven inch broach loading mortars five and u half pounds of powder is used to throw a 125 pound shrapnel shell. These gun may be fired about one round a minute, and their power of destruction is almost inconceivable. From tests made by army officers it has been proved that a shrapnel shell, fired from a five inch gun will burst with terrific force Into about 300 fragments. A seven inch shrapnel shell | will distribute 700 bullets and fragments over ti distance of 300 yards long and half ♦is broad. These seige guns are, for trans portation, attached each to a limber and hauled by horses or mules, ten to a gun. From three to five mile is the most effec tive range of the five inch rifle. The mor tars and howitzers may be fired at an angle of forty-five degrees, or even more, and can be used close to the objective or at. a considrable distance. CSAISTOH.TA.
