POWER OF MODERN GÜNS.

DESTRUCTIVE EFFECTS OF THE JAPANUSE

BUELLS ON RUSSIAN SHIPS. ·

There was a disposition in some of the' earlier reports of the naval battle of Tsushima, particularly in those emanating from St. Pa tortburg, to assume that the tremendous havoc to the Russian fleet was due to the employment of submarines. The Russian authorities favoured this theory because it help- ed to minimize the glory of the Japanese victory, by attributing it to an unusual cause- in naval warfare and not to superiority of naval skill or equipment. In 'other quarters the theory was exploited for the plain parposa of booming submarines and induancing the American Government to incorporate them more extensively in the organization of the new Navy. The lack of any definite knowledge of the plain of the battle gave an excellent op portunity for several daye of free advertising of this class of naval auxiliaries.

We are remote enough now from the date of the battle to learn something definite about the plan on which it was fought and the agents. which were actually employed on both sides and their effects. While some vague sugges ortions of the use of submarines are persistently thrown out by correspondents, the evidence is practically conclusive that they took no part in the two days' engagement, and that the an- nihilation of the feet and the tremendous slaughter of its crows were the result of special skill in the disposition of the Japanese ships, superior armament and perfection of marks- manship. "The Japanese ships were, moreover, armed with the latest type of Armstrong guns, while the batteries of the Russian war, vessels were mounted with out-of-date Krupps of the 1880 paltern.

A special feature is made of fult and accur.

ters of general interest.

The condition of the Russian battleship Orel, as she lies moored in the Maizura Navy Yard, is conclusive proof that Japanese guns and marksmanship were the prime agents in forcing Admiral Nebogatoff's surrender, and that torpedoes, contract or floating mines or submarine boats had nothing to do with it. From the water lina up the Orel is practically a wreck, and, while she is below the waistline - structurally sound, everything above it must be zobuilt to enable her to go into cammission.. The enormous power of the Japanese guns and the destructive effects of the big twelve-inch sheils which struck the Oral's upperworks are." shown in the wrecked turrets, the smashed and dismantled armament, the rupture of the steel. partitions and the grewsome evidences of heman slaughter acattered over her decks and through- out her interior. Similar evidence of the great power and destructive effects of the Japanese guns and shells are borne by Admiral Enquist's squadron at Manila.

Besides the Russians are now beginning to tell the story of the engagement from their own view-point, which, although discrediting the naval skill and foresight of their command-/ ing officers, bears the marks of truth. Some of the Russians interned at Manila frankly con fers that, Rolestvensky carried his ships lato the Strait of Corea in battle formation, bui without clearing his decks for action, although he won plainly within. the danger zone.

Russi na where they were least prepared to resist, reparated their squadrons, demoralized their crews and threw their whole formation into irreparable confusion. Toge was then in a position to harass them in front and rear and take them in detail, with little risk to his own ships or crews, incapacitating and sinking them by sheer weight of metal and the irresistible force of big twelve-inch shells which his bat teries paured into their hulls while his rapide. fire guns swept their deck. The Russian sur vivora concede that the battle was won by the Japanese as soon as it began, and inasmuch as It was a running fight, maintained at a high rate of speed from start to finish, there was no opportunity to employ slow-going submarines had either fleet possessed them.-Ex.

MIXED RELATIONSHIP,

If the father and mothar are half-brother and

half-sister, then, it would appear, they are only. haif-uncle and half-aunt of the pa lies desiring a marriage license, and this would make them half-coulna if anything. The law does not permit Best cousins to marry, but does permit second conins to be joined in wed- lock, As these persons are less' thap": full cousins it would appear that they have a legal right to get married, and the Probate Judge so informed the young man. He did not get the license yesterday, but no doubt will when he applies før åt.

Now, what relation will the half uncle and helf-aunt by to the couple after marriage); As each one has a half and two halves make onn whole, would'nt, the half-uncle and half-gunt make one whale' uncle and one whole aunt?
