Still mere novel Is the arrangement by which the thrce dynamlte guns are fastened in the bow, and cannot be turned; be tha vessel itself must be pointed at the object te take aim. The dynamlte guns leek llke Immense reflecting telescopes, being C5 feet long, and projecting far out from the forecastle deck. The breeches are firmly fastcued te the bottom of the vessel, and nreuud them are thirty-six pipes, each 25 feet long and 10 inches in diameter, into which the compressed air Is forced te charge the guns. The compressor brings this air te a pressnre of 2,000 pounds te the square Inch, and by Its ferce the dynamlte Hhclls, weighing 000 pounds, can 1k sent two miles.

The vessel contains apartments for Its complement of officers and men, and the designers are confident it will preve indeed the "Destroyer of the Seas."

The Yorktown carries 400 tens of coal, enough te sail from 2,000 te 10.000 miles, according te the rate of cptrtd desired, as it is a principle of steam making for speed above eight knots per hour, each added knot requires mere coal than any preceding.

The African mission of Bishop William Tayler, who is new In New Yerk attend ing the big Methodist conference, has been singularly successful. He was ap pointed a missionary bishop at the last general conferenco, and is the only man in the Mothedlsl church holding that ofilce. Slnce the Iwginnlng of his work 8,000 natives have embraced Christianity under his ministrations. He has under his supervision seme fifty preachers, sixteen of w horn are women- Bishop Tayler states tliat Liberia, with Its settled communities of Christian Africans, with lta organlzed government recognized by tlie nations, and its social regulations, will be used by him ns the bose and support of his future operations. He lias arranged for opening a dozen industrial schools, the chlefs of the different tribes visited having agiccd te plant and attend te the first crops of feed required by the mission, te furnish building sites and te erect buildings. Bishop Tayler egrees te provlde teachers, preachers and nil ether things necessary te put the mission in a self supporting way. "Te adequately understand the difficul ties which n missionary in Africa has te surmount," he says, "It is morely neces sary te stale that tlie languages and dia lects of the natives are innumerable The Blbln has been translated Inte slxty-Blx different tongues, yet this is but n small proportion of tlie actual numlicr of lan guages spoken. It is estimated that there are nearly COO. I can say from experience tliat It Is no play te pick up a language In the study of which nil the rules of your own grammar simply help te puzzle you. I was npK!ntcd te my work in Africa four years age, nnd sailed from New Yerk en Jan. 22, 1885. 1 took with me fifty-two missionaries. After a short stay In Liver, peel I set sail for Africa, and landed nt St. Paul de IjeaWa, en the west coast, where a large mission house had been prepared for me. Whlle staying there many of my workers liccame 111. One of them died liecause he would net take quinine, which is the most effectual rem edy for African fevcr. Finally I get the permission of the governor of Angela te establish five mission stations the first nt Leauda, tlie soceud nt Deude, the third nt Ullaugue n-pepe, the fourth at Ma- manor TCrneu anb his bti:ami:u. JttTige nnd the fifth at Lulaabcrg. Deude Is n considerable town, situated about 2-10 miles from Leande. It Is laid out In long streets, and has sidewalks, lamps and many ether improvements." It is necessary in prosecullng mission ary work In the interior of Africa te use the waterways of the continent. Bishop Tayler has a small steamer en tlie Conge river, in wldch he makes periodical jour neys Inte the country. It Is built In se" tiens, and can be taken apart and trans ported from ene stream te another te milt Ills convenience. Ills work is confined mostly te that part of Afrlcu known as Conge Freo Stale. According te Stanley's eslliiiatn, It embraces ever 1,000,000 square miles, nnd has n population of 27, 000,000. The natives are barbarians, and it l.s said that seme of them Iusa been guilty of cannibalism. When n king or ehlef died they IcIH ten or ttrolve persons In a most savaga manner, nnd adorn their houses with the skulls. They bclluve In futluhcs and witchcraft. When n man dies they beliove that seme oue lias bowitched him, and they try te find out who it was, that they may put him te death. The ceiuitry along the upper Conge is ravaged by Arabs In pursuit of slaves. Iu traveling along the upper Conge ene may see Mages that unce contained 5,000 and 0,000 Inhabitants desolate nnd in ruins. The Arabs surrounded the villages mid burned them, having either killed the people or carried them Inte slavery. Frem the mouth of the Conge for nearly 180 lnllc3 the river Is navigable by tlie largest vessels. Then conie the falls, or rapids, which extend nbeut 180 miles. The do de scent Is 1)00 feet. When Bishop Tayler's steamer, the Henry Itccd, ascended the rlver It was taken te pieces at the feet of the falls, and ene plcce was given te each natlve te carry. With it was also given a bcrapef paper describing his lead. At the end of their Journey they cume te the bishop, sa lng: "Master, here la my lead; leek nt the pipir; see it Is all light. New glve me my pay and I will go home." Te de Justice te their honesty It may be staled that net nilvet was lacking. Abeve the falls a steamer can go 1,200 miles en the main stream, or 0,000 miles en the stream and its branches. "A man Mho gees out te the Conge as n missionary must be net less than 23 years old, of sound health, and careful about adapting himself te the exigencies of tlie weather," said Bishop Tayler te your, correspondent. "Total absti nence, is nil abselute condition of liealtlu A man must learn what net te de. A young man cmne there and In sisted upon walking eighteen miles a day. Iu n short tlme he was dead. Abeve nil n man must net become frightened. There were thrce men who caine out from Hug laud, and en the veyage the pcople en beard the vessel frightened them, telling them that they would surely die, The men made their last wills and testaments nnd expected te die. Shortly after land lng they wcre taken with fever. They gave up all hepe. The missionaries tried te nrouse them, but it proved useless. They sauk down into a mood of despali and died." The future of tlie Conge Freo State la very premising. Stanley, the explorer, estimates the Ivery production nlone te amount te $150,000 annually, but of ceurse Ivery cannot be classed as a staple production. The vegetation Is luxurious, and as seen as experienced betanlbts In vestigate the country many valuable herbs will undoubtedly be discovered. The temperature of the Conge district Is In the dry season, which answers te our v Inter, about 73 dl-gs. In the het season tlie average is 00 deg-,, and tlie limit about DO degs. There Is always a fme hreoze blowing, se tliat the weather is uever suffecatingly het. The ceuutry Iu fenced in by mountain chains and threaded with navigable rivers. There are In all ever 7,000 miles of waterways in the Conge district.

The Met Tepalar rorMmaft-e In Creat llrllaln Her Early Ufa. Tlie Princess of Wales is the most popu lar pcrsonage In Great Britain. Se far u tlie institution of royalty hi concerned It can be truly said of her that her llfe Is the most valuable in the kingdom. Se long as she lives her popularity will be sufficient te keep the cause of reyaly well protected from popular Innovation. I have tried te obtain from these who knew the rrinccss of Wales well the secret of her great popularity. She is net a brilliant woman, she lias never written anything, and in conversation she never impresses any ene with the idea of her having any particular originality erstrikIng force of character. la ordinaryseclcty, without the advantage of her position, she would make but llttle Impression. She is ex cessively ladylike and refined. She lias a most marvelous beauty, which chiefly consists in regular features, a fair com ploxlen and a perfectly scrcne and placid expression. Tlie most remarkable feature of her geed leeks is the preservation of her youthful appearance. In the bread glare of daylight she leeks today as young If net younger than her eldest daughter. Her figure Is also slim and slight as that of a young girl. She dresses with ox ex ox qulslle taste and appears te enjoy general seciety very much. The secret of her popular charm is said te be this: She has the rare and gracious faculty of impress ing pcople who coreo in contact with her in the casual meetltig of a general recep tion or a lovce with her genuine cordiality. Pcople who have liccn presented te her and who lmve simply seen her bow and smlle, and perhaps have heard a half dozen words of commenplaco greeting, are the ones who ere the most wildly en thuslestlc ever her. Her bearing bofero the public constitutes her cldef charm. Kvery oue is led te bullove that she is the most gracious and winning pcrsonage in the kingdom. It Is this outward sugges tion upon the part of the Princess of Wales of brilliant gracleusncss that has raptlvaled nnd thoroughly charmed the British public Theso who knew her best say that a mere intimate acquaintance with her does net bear out the public eatlmate. She is thoroughly refined, ao ae ao cempllshcd nnd self possessed, but Is net Interesting in a general conversation. Whlle I was en the continent last month I heard a number of interesting stories concerning the early llfe of the Princess of Wales. These stories are net particularly new, and I de net propeso fe ullude te them except te give the exact income of her father before he was called te the tlirone of Denmark. Tills prince lived In tlie most obscure poverty for a number of years. He had nn intome of exactly $1,200 a year. There were five children te lx supported and educated from tills beggarly sum. Tlie young ladles of this household learned te cook, te sew nud te de nil kinds of housowerk. They were obliged te make their own dresses for many years. Ne members of any family se obscurely placed have risen te mero brilliant nosltlene than this Danish family. The head of the family became the king of Denmark. Ills eldest son is, of ceurse, the crown prlnce of that country. Anether Ben Is the king of Oreece. Ills three daughters are tlie Princess of Wales, the Czarina of Ilussla and the Duchess of Cumberland. T. 0. Crawford iu New Yerk World. Ytlmre I'll mi in rt IIhIs Are Blnriu.
