The magnificent Oregon lies in Guantanamo Bay today, a week after her excellent work in the destruction of Cervera’s fleet, getting in readiness to go with Commodore Watson’s fly ing squadron to the Spanish coast. To say she is gelling in readiness may be likely to give a slightly wrong impres sion, for the Oregon has shown herself to bo ready at any time for whatever she is called upon to do Even now she has most of her coal aboard and there are no repairs required, but she is being examined as <o her ma* chinery, and touched up with red lead and paint on the outside in spots which have made her look somewhat battered after her long season of active duty. Her cylinders have not been opened since she began her long voy age, and it is desired to look into them and see what the condition of the pie tons is before she starts on another trip, even of a few thousand miles— for the Oregon’s men haVe come to regard a journey across the Atlantic se only a abort trip. One reason that the Oregon has been always ready for whatever turned up and able to do so much without any overhauling or repairs is that no salt water has been used in her boilers. Another reason io the common spirit animating officers and men. a spirit that makes every one willing to do any n -■ —..WW!. 4 SS. a I" 1 11 ' . , ... ■ , - ■ z wmh ■khi yni bb fll RIF H H dk — ■■ ■■ m jeWVIYYI/I nil TIBI II ■■■ H i/i ■■ V*Y V I T ■ f *5 n ■III Iml l_r I "| 1 1 &| Bl 11 lfl|f IB us ■ ill e BE I ® !■ a ■ /■ I SwE I Bl Itt wm. ■ws I If IH M ■■■l I VA 1 I wk V* Inf I 111 1W IWI Sw IY■■llm II Un 111 V al 1B Y B ■ ■ Y-H. .1. ■ ■■ ■ ■ 111 l r 111 IT IVI IT 11 11 ILBMI 11 Vmß B aJI&W 4kA ■ ■ mom wk ■ IM 1 1111 BB fI ■ Ijl LY B ABBrmtW mml wr warn MI ■ " ——— >■■■■ "”T r • , w. tall. below Read about It.

Tbe chief engineer has not permitted.any salt water to be used in tbe boilers He is willing to go thirsty and do without fresh water generally if necessary, but insists that tbe boilers shall have fresh water. The only salt water that has entered them got in by reason of a leak in tbe bilge pumps one day. It was only a little, amounting to a fraction of 1 per cent., practically nil as far as leaving salt in the boilers is concerned. Consequently tbe Oregon’s boilers can do today at any minute all that they could do when new. This is bow it has come about that the Oregon is jokingly called in tbe fleet a cruiser, owing to tbe alacrity with which, when she first came here, she started off after possible prises, even chasing newepa* per dispatch boats, as she was not familiar with their appearance, and to the speed at which she put after tbe Spaniards, especially the Colon, on last Sunday. Ono of tbo things the Colon’s cap* tain found bard to bear, hard even among tbe hardships of that fatal day, so hard that be fell impelled to speak of it after hie surrender, was the fact that the Oregon not only chased him, bat chased him successfully ; chadK him until with her great 13 inch gone she was able to eend two -such shots alongside him as convinced him of tbe futility of farther running and induced him to fire that pathetically eloquent gun to leeward, the accom* 1 ; " ... '-J u paniment to tbe lowering of the Colon’s flag—tbe last shot of tbe great naval battle. He had believed him self to be on a fast cruiser. To have tbe cruiser Brooklyn after him gave him tbe feeling only of racing in his class. "But to be chased by a battleship!” he said to his captors. It was too much; enough to break him all up had be not been all broken up already. —New York Sun, i Catarrh Cannot be Cured By LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they cannot reach tbe seat of tbe disease.
