the well-known unval whiter and critic, is again responsible for its production, and he has been fortunate in the gentlenen who collaborated with hiin.

The Duke of Argyll, K., has written a Sea Song especially for the book, and par- haps the next most interesting contribution' will be thas on the "Development of the Capital Ship" by Mr Maurice Prenderenst. Plans accompany this article showing a battleship of 40,000 tons to steam 27 krots. with internal combustion engines, and mounting no less than ten 18-inch gais, firing a two thousand pound shell.

Iu this connection,,tun, an article un Internal Combastion Engines and tlioir Application to the Propulsion of War- ships," by the Marquis of. Grahamn, Comr. R. N. V. R. will be especially valuable. Load Graben, it will bu remembered, has recently been experimenting with the gan- Goat Rattler the Clyde, and bath Mesars Hourdgzote und Messrs Vickers, Son and Maxim, are prevarot to build a gas-engined battleship imoediately.."
