for the coming year is the increasing size EMBROIDERED SILK and GRASS-CLOTH DRESS and BLOUSE PATTERNS. of the battleships. The two battleships |
launched by Great Britain this year, the INSPECTION
"Africa" and the "Hibernis," were of 16,350.
tons, and these were larger than those
launched by any other Power.
The prevailing size of next year's bat» tleships will be 18,000 tons. Great Britain is building an experimental example in the "Dreadnought," Other Powers are follow. ing suit,although their vessels are still in the air. The United States Naval Construction Board is about to submit plans to Congrese : for a new type of 18,000 ton battleship. The Russian naval programme 'provides for six ships of the same burthen, France talks about laying down three 18,000-ton monsters, and Japan two, while Gremany hopes for six.
Japan, indeed, hints at vessels in the future beside which even an 18,000-ton battleship will seem small. A recent article
24
in the Jiji Shimpo stated :-"Some of our best ships are already out of date, and
dy out o everything goes to indicate the necessity for building larger ships, with much heavier armaments and higher speed. In the view of the progressive school of naval designers, the battleship of the near future will probably be a vessel displacing 22,000 tons, with an armament of fourteen 12-inch guns and a spoed of twenty knots; while the future armoured cruiser will have at displacement of 15,000 tons and a. speed of twenty-five knots." But shipbuilders re- gard this as a dream rather than a pos- Bibility at any rate for the present.
To descend from ships in the air to ships in the water, Great Britain launched during the year two battleships and four armoured craisers. France launched ono battleship and one armoured craiser, Germany two battleships, Russia one battleship, Italy a battleship and an armoured cruiser, Japan two battleships and one armoured cruiser; and the United States four battleships and one armoured cruiser. In the list of vessels completed and put into service, Great Bri- tain come easily first, with a record of five battleships by the United States, two battleships and two armoured cruisers by Germany, and one armoured cruiser each by France and Italy.
Of all the naval Powers, Italy alone still pins her faith to the amall mobile type of battleship.

FROM THE FRENCH OF VICTOR HUGO.
Alone I wandered by the sea,
The stars were shining overhead, And o'er the waste of watere shed
A light of lustrous brilliancy,
The swelling ocean, bright and clear, Subsiding from a summer gale, Undimmed by silvery shining soil, Seemed whispering a low sweet prayer. The azure sky, unflecked by cloud,
Surmounted by its starry wreath, Was smiling on the earth beneath,- The slow wind through the forest soughed. The scales of passion filed my eyes,
My soul was bathed in blessed light And brightly beaming through the night I saw sweet faces in the skies. Then from each proudly swelling peak
A question came, and wood and plain Re-echoed it with sweet refrain,
"What unto thee the power gives The rugged rocks found voice to speak :—
Oh stars to evor dance and shine Oh sea to toss your crest of brine, What unseen force within thee lives?"— The golden stars, in murmurs low,
Blonding with ocean's stronger notes, Replied (the mingled music floats As soft as silvor streamlets flow).
To God alone lot praise be given, We shine and well bat in his praise Then loud your sounding anthems raise To-Him the Lord of Earth and Heaven."

I beg, therefore, to second the resolution,
The resolution was carried and the Council adjourned sine die.

In his campaigns he makes speeches in all three of those tongues, He is fond of outdoor life, and especially of walking - he goes on foot every day from his home in Washington Square to the City Hall, a distance of about two miles.
FROM THE FRENCH OF VICTOR HUGO,
Alone I wandered by the sea,
The stars were shining overhead, And o'er the waste of Waters shed A light of lustrous brilliancy.
The swelling ocean, bright and clear, Subsiding from a summer gale, ́ Undimmed by allvery shining soil, Seemed whispering a low swest prayer, The azure sky, unflecked by cloud,
Surmounted by its starry wreath, Was amiling on the earth beneath, The slow wind through the forest soughed.
The scales of passion fed my eyes,
My soul was bathed in blessed light And brightly beaming through the night I saw sweet faces in the skies. Then from each proudly swelling peak
A question came, and wood and plain Ro-echoed it with sweet refrain,
The rugged rooke found voice to speak :--
What unto thee the power gives
Oh stars to ever dance and shino Oh sea to toss your creat of brine,” What unseen force within theo lives t❞— The golden stars, in murmurs low,
Blonding with ocean's stronger notes, Replied (the mingled music floats As soft as silver streamlets flow),
To God alono let praise be given, Wo shine and wall bat in his praise Then loud your sounding anthems raise To-Him the Lord of Earth and Heaven."

A STEWARDESS'S £10,000
She dies on eve of Retirement.
Death has revealed the extent of the sayings of Mary Martin, for very many years a stewardess in the employment of the premier English steamship company, the famous P, and O. Fifty-five years of ago the deceased was taking passage home as a passenger in the Indian mail steamer "Egypt," which touched at Plymouth re- cently, it bei g her intention to give up the sea on reaching London. For thirty-two years Mre Martin has been a stewardess travelling on the ships of the line trading from London to Tadis, China, Japan, and Australia. For the last three years sho seryed on the China station mainly on the "Coromandel," and when she joined the "Egypt" at Bombay her service as a stewardess was over for ever.
"
Her plans for the future were known to no one on the mail steamer, as she was of a reserved d'sposition concerning her personal affairs. Her fellow passengers glesned, vory little about her beyond the lengthy the fact that sho hid solved such a
period in the P. and O. Company's employ- ment-that she was a widow, her husband having been a Parece, who was engaged, as a workman in the dockyard at Bombay.
The day after the "Egypt" left Gib- raltar for Plymouth and London, Mary Martin was chatting away in a jocular. manner on deck, when she suddenly complained of feeling an acute pain in the region of the heart. Almost instantly she became unconscious, and despite the ministrati ns of the ship's surgeon, sho was dead within an hour, death being at tributable to fatty degeneration of the heart. Later in the day the body was com- mitted to the ocean with that: solemnity which is always associated with a funeral
at sos.
And then, whilst the majority of the passengers dismissed the incident from their minds with the brief comment" poor soul,"
