Spain ia to be congratulated on bev
ing enough warships left to cut a fig*
arc at international ceremonies. If
Admiral Camera bad gone on to meet
Dewey or come over to greet Sampson
it would have been Decenary to char
ter an excursion steamer whenever
there wae occasion to have the nation
represented afloat.
As the cruiser Brooklyn wae the on
ly vessel engaged io the naval fight al
Santiago which carried 5 inch guns
there can be no mistaking the marks
made by her gunners. The number of
& inch boles in the battered hulks ol
Csrvera's fleet show that the Brooklyn
got in her work from the beginning to
the ending of the fight with indis
criminate fnry and precision.
Ilia somewhat earprising that the
Spanish-American war baa not sooner
affected the warlike tendencies of some
of Europe’s groat fighting nations. It
haa come at last, however, and it is
said the chances are not altogether
bad lor a little naval brush between
Ruseie and England as the result of
the tronble in the east, just to please
the people, and perhaps incidentally
to continue the test of modern guns
and armament.

Mica Lisxie Leedenner, a yourg
lady who has been raised on a cow
ranch, and who lives with her father
near Cloud Cliff, Oklahoma Territory,
has organised a company of girls to
go to war, which she calle rough rid
ers. She claims that every girl in her
company can eboot as well as any
sharpshooter while riding al full
speed. The Captain of the company
will ask President McKinley to sllow
them to go to life front and fight the
Spaniards.—Chicago Chronicle
Quten Victoria is a strong believer
in the reality and near presence of the
spirit world. She believes that the de
parted loved ones watch over those
who still struggle with the sorrows and
temptations of the earthly life. Dur
ing her retirement at Osborne, alter
the death of Prince Consort, she found
•her only comfort io the belief that
her husbaod’eepirit was dose beside
her. for ho bad promised that it should
be so." Thia waa told to Dean Stan
ley by the Queen’s half sister, Princees
Hohenlohe.

Delays are dangerous; in war times
they are exceedingly so. The naval
board of construction, therefore, has
acted wisely in taking the initiative in'
changing the plans <4 the" American
battteebipe now under construction so
as to conform with the lessons taught
by the war, without waiting for the
usual authority of congress The
original plana call for a displacement
of 11,500 tons and a speed of 16 knots.
The battle off Santiago harbor demon
strated the necessity for a higher rate
of speed than these specifications call
for. and it has been decided to build
ships of 13,000 tons displacement and
18 knots. To do this the original coot
authorised by congress must be ex
oeeded, but the board baa wifely de
termined to revise the plans and let
congreae ratify them later—Chicago
