After Cervera's fleet was disposed of
our ships cheered one another, the cap

band, and the strains of the "Star
: Spangled Banner" echoed over the
! lines of Spaniards drawn up 011 the
deck of the last of the Spanish fleet,
j and up over the lofty green-topped
I hills.
Two Navie* Compared.
Just as the press of the country com
pared the relative strength of the Spanish
and American navies prior to hostilities,
so is the same operation on, only
the word German is substituted for that
of Spanish. The strenuous opposition to
everything American displayed by Ger
many has given rise to this situation.
War with that power is not considered
probable, but under the circumstances it
is possible. To be sure, Berlin has given
assurcuces of friendliness, but she has not
withdrawn her flotilla from the Philip
pines, nor has she made any friendly dis
position of the tariff questions which are
a constant source oi irritation.
So this nation lias settled back com
fortably to measure strength—on paper—
with his Majesty the Kaiser.
An impartial list quoted by the New
York Herald from"The Naval Pocket
book" (Knglish, February I, i S!)S j gives
the following figures:
United
Germany. State?.
Battleships, 8000 tons and upward.. 10
Hattlesliips, 7000 tons .. 4
Battleships, not included above— .'i 1
Sea-Koinff coast defense ships s 7
Large armored cruisers, 1500 tons
or more 7 3
Total ships of the line 28 21
Cruisers 21 38
Coast defense 13 13
Torpedo craft 127 29
The German armored fleet is a trifle
greater in displacement than that of this
country. Iter ships carry •TiO guns of a
calibre greater than three inches, while
our navy mounts 320 guns of the same
weight. Four first-class battleships form
the main strength of the German navy—
Fricdrich Wilhelui, Brandenburg, Weiss
enburg and Worth. They are all 10,00(1-
ton ships, protected by a complete armor
belt of 11 .<*> and 15.7 inches of steel, have
a coal capacity of 800 tons and a speed of
seventeen and one-half knots an hour.
They carry six 11-inch guns in barbettes,
besides powerful auxiliary and secondary
batteries.
The effectiveness of' the American navy
is now a known quantity—that of Ger
many unknown. Our men and ships have
been tested in actual war, and we know
what they can do. The Germans have
acquired a high degree of organization,
and apparently their equipment is of the
best. They have, besides the national
traits of bulldog persistency, bravery and
machine-like obedience to authority. Thoy
are far slower than we and effect things by
mass that we accomplish easier by indi
vidual effort. An American thinks twice
while a Germau thinks once. And, as
this war has shown, it is the individual in
the crew as well as in the staff and line
that counts for most. We could give
Germany a far heavier tounage and one
hundred more guns and then call it an
even match.—[Philadelphia Inquirer.

vigor. Try Electric Bitters and be

Sympathetic fitubandj.
The sympathetic tenderness of a lov- !
ing husbancl is everything to an expec- I
tant mother, especially during her first I
ordeal. George Layton, Esq., a promi- j
nent druggist of Dayton, 0., gives the j
following case :
A customer of mine, whose wife has used I
four bottles of 'Mother's Friend" before con- |
finement, says, after seeing the effects of the
remedy, that if she had togo through the ordeal |
again, and there were but four bottles on the
market, and the cost was $lOO per bottle, she |
would have them.
" Mother's Friend " is a scientifically !
compounded liniment which affords cer- ]
tain relief in the various ailments pre- j
ceding childbirth, and assures proper
elasticity to the cords and muscles in- !
volved in the final ordeal.
"Mother's Friend" is sold by drug- i
gists, or expressed on receipt of one !
dollar. j
