Special Navy Supplement. Tho subject of our navy is one which is all-engrossing at tho present time, and the desire for accurate and roliablo information concerning our vessels lias Induced the Scientific American to publish a special navy supplement of forty pages witii ninety illustrations. Every effort has been made to explain what tho navy is. Comparisons have been drawn, not only between the various types of vessels, but also between dif ferent vessels of the same class. The descriptions are couched in untechnlcal language, and after a careful reading of tliis number any one can discuss the merits of the various vessels. The clear diagrams showing tho difference between those modern fighting machines render analyses of this kind easy. It. is beauti fully illustrated by half-tone engravings and woodcuts showing not only the naval vessels themselves, but guns, gun turrets, conning towers, steering ap paratus, etc. This number has a color ed map of Cuba.

Fifth Annual Cloning Kxerrinen of the School Were Nuccesnfully Conducted on Friday Evening—Nome Excellent Ad dresses Delivered by tbe Students. Tho fifth annual closing exorcises of tho Mining and Mechanical Institute were hold at the Grand opera house on Friday evening. Hon. George D. Mc- Creary, of Philadelphia, occupied his usual position as chairman of the even ing, and filled it in the same able manner as on former occasions. With him on the stage were tho students of tho institute who took part, in the even ing's program, this faculty of the school, tho board of directors, the speaker of the evening—Prof. A. E. Kcnnclly, of Philadelphia—and tho most prominent supporter of tho Institute—Eckley B. Coxo, Jr. Through tho generosity of the latter the board of directors has been placed in possession of 8309 annual ly, to bo distributed entirely or in part in prizes to the scholars who shall merit tho samo. Tho prizes for tho term just closed wero awarded at the conclusion of the exercises by Prof. John K. Wagner, and consisted of $240. The fortunate pupils and tho amounts received were as fol lows: First division, scientific class—M. N. Bcrgin, Bernard Boyle, Roger Devor. Frank Roberts, $25 each. Second division, scientific class—John J. McMenamiu, John Powell, Charles Mltke, S2O each. Mining class—August Lesser, S2O. Elementary mathematics —Bernard J. Keunan, John J. Gallagher, S2O each. Mechanical drawing—Torrenco Rich ards, William Lesser, $lO each. Prof. Ken nelly delivered the Founder's Day address. This gontleman is one whose name is widely known through ills works upon scientific subjects, and ho proved to bo an entertaining talker. His address in the main was confined to the necessity of the young men of Ameri ca educating themselves. He exhorted them to loso no time in doing this, to grasp every chance to imbibe knowledge, not alone from books but in all other ways in which learning can be obtained, lie predictod that tho demand for edu cated men and women in the near future would be greater than over, in order that tho development of the country can keep pace with its wonderful resources and capabilities as tho latter from time t.o time come into view. Specialists are needed today in overy department of labor, business and the professions, and tho speaker warned those who fail to equip themselves with learning that they will surely be outdistanced in the race of life which the coming civilization will bring with it. John J. McMenainin had been chosen to deliver the opening address of tho exercises and ho did it in acceptable style, deviating somewhat from the beaten paths usually trod by salutato rians. His welcome on behalf of all con cerned to the audience and public was comprised in a neat speech that did not fail to have an effect. Following this with his subject proper, "Our Country's Needs," ho entertained tho gathering with a masterly oration on this all important question, and iiis troatment of it showed that no small amount of thought and study liavo been expended by him In seoking tho real needs of tho country. The necessity of returning to the principles onunciatod in tho Declara tion of Independence and strictly ad hering to them, and the general develop inetit of citizenship on broad lines, such as will make men capable of guiding our country's destiny so that each will reap his proportionate share of the bounties of nature and genius, wero brought out in a most convincing manner by the speaker. Tho valedictory oration by Bernard Boyle was also well received. He open ed witii a pleasant and interesting dis course upon tho "Conversion of Heat Into Mechanical Energy," which sub ject tho speaker proved himself capable of treating In a stylo that permitted those unacquainted with this mystery to fully understand and appreciate. Mr. Boyle then followed witii tho thanks of tho students of tho institute to the directors and faculty for the interest taken and time spent upon them, all of which he rendered in languago appro priate to the occasion. M. N. Bergin's talk on "Mineral Coal" gave to many in tho audience new light on this product of our region. Its for mation, from the ages prior to man's existence to its discovery by man, was traced Intelligently by the speaker, and the description of tho many changes it had undergone before reaching its pres ent state was ably told. "lladient Matter" was well treated by Roger Dover, who, besides speaking on his subject fully, gave much informa tion on matter of every kind—solid, liquid and gas. The indestructibility of OikSTOniA. Bean the ,4 Hi' Will Von Have Always Bought FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, JUNE 0, 1898. matter, or rathorof the molecules which compose it. was demonstrated by the speaker calling: attention to the various ways in which matter can bo disposed of, then proving that not an atom hud been destroyed—transformed perhaps, but still remaining as matter in some form. Bernard J. Knennn, with "Oppor tunity" for his text, made a plea to nil to grasp every opportunity in life that might assist in educating the brain or the hand. He commented freely upon the opportunities that lie before the young men and advised each to make good use of every chance to improve oneself ere it is too late. "Air We Broathn" was the title of Patrick J. Dover's subject, and it is safe to conclude that after he finished many in the audience wero better acquainted witii this important article of life than before. The necessity of maintaining tho purity of the air we breathe, thereb) insuring our health against disease, was brought out in striking form, and statistics of air analyzed in various places clinched tho speaker's arguments. O. T. Richards told of tho vast amount of knowledge which can be obtained by "Asking Questions." People who see something and do not understand it wero advised to ask questions from those who know. Every man's store of learning can be increased in tiiis man 11 er. Condy Johnson gave a brief but very interesting review of "One of America's Greatest Statesmen (Henry Cla})." The life and work of this noble man furnished tlte speaker with a theme that was well discoursed upon in the short space of time allotted him. Clay's grand stability of character was offered by Mr. Johnson as a model for all others who would rise to prominence in the affairs of state and still retain tho respect of the populace. The opera house was well filled with a select audience. During the evening several appropriate selections wero ren dered by St. Patrick's band. Tho board of directors of tho institute consists of tho following: President, A. C. Leisenriug; vice president, Owen Fowler; treasurer, John Rowland; secre tary, Wiliiam B. Fry; H. E. Sweeny, E. A. Oberrender, Walter Leisenring, Harry R. Price, John R. Wagner and John li. Cunningham. The faculty includes John R. Wagner, principal, and Richard P. Keiley, Wil liam J. Schmidt, Harry R. McClellan and 11. W. Palmer, instructors. Tho term of 1898-91) will open early in September. New ArrunuemeptH on the Valley. The practice of economy goes steadily onward along tho Lehigh Valley Rail road. A number of inon who have beon drawing good salarios for comparatively easy duty liavo had their salaries cut to a figure that tho company believes tits the. duties, while others who liavo been bent down with burden for year* have had them lightened by a very sub stantial increase. The latest innova tion consists of a change, in tho hours and duties of train dospateher.* and operators at Delano. Instead of ton hours a day as has been the practice for years they will work eight, hours. Three dispatchers will direct train movements, ono for each third of tho twentv-four hours, while each will bo aidod by a copier, a telegraph operator who assists the dispatcher. Heretofore live or six men handled this work by day and a lesser number by night. To enable ouo tnan to attend to all this work at once, all offices on the entire division have been connected with one wire. In this way Delano may com municate with Mt. Carina!, Mauch Chunk, Freeland, Toniliickon or New Boston Junction with the same instru ment. It is expected tiiat tiie new ar rangement will go into effect within a few days.

LEISENRING'S BETRAYAL. llow the Kx-CongrexHiimn Was Buncoed by Delegates Elected to Support Him. A staff correspondent of the Phila delphia Press, writing from llarrisburg on tho eve of the Republican state con vention, tells as follows how tho alleged friends of ex-Congressman Leisenring threw over their candidate for governor: "Tonight both Connell and Leisenring are out, this action having been taker, to help W. A. Stone. Mr. Connell Is here and afbted for himself, but the case of Mr. Leisenring, he being absent in Colorado, appears to bo an exhibition of bad faith oil the part of iiis alleged friends, who for the machine candi date. The facts are most significant and illustrates how some of the tilings are done. "A meeting of the Leisenring delegates was held this evening. The Leisenring strength was twenty-one votes. Mr. Leisenring had agreed that iiis name would be presented to tho convention, but the Hon. "Farmer" Kulp, who claimed to lie a Leisenring delegate, al though lie was on the W. A. Stone steer ing committee, came to tho meeting. Ho opened with a lengthy speech, iu which lie said that Leisenring had no earthly show and that as VV. A. Stone was to he nominated he would not vote for Leisenring. "F. W. Whoaton, of Wilkosbarre, stated that ho was elected in opposition to Leisenring, and was not in favor of having Lelsonring's name presented, and that ho was in favor of W. A. Stone on tho ground that it was practical politics aud Luzerne could get no share of the small offices unless tho delegates stood by tho machine. "Mr. Harris, of Hazleton, stated that he had to bo for W. A. Stone because a friend of his was a candidate for tho Hazleton postoftice, and they had to stand with Quay. However, he voted for presenting tho name. C. C. Bow man, of Pittston, also opposed the pre senting of Leisenring's name, becausq Luzerne would loso its share of patron age. "Mr. Davis, of Carbon, and Mr. Ilal soy, of White Haven, stood by Leisen ring to tho end, and Mr. Ilalsey stated lie would not vote for W. A. Stone. The truth of tho matter is that overy per sonal friend of Leisenring, tho men whom lie relied on, came to llarrisburg witii a determination to throw him over and they succeeded. To "Farmer" Kulp, more than anyone else, is duo tho betrayal of Leisonring." DRIFTON ITEMS. A cooking school is tho latest noveUy in town. Mrs. E. B. Coxo has employed an export cook from Now York city to teach tho maids of Drifton. Much interest is manifested in tho lessons, which are given in tho Odd Follows' building.

Edward O'Donnell has been promoted to assistant postmaster, succeeding W. G. Taney, resigned. George Barager. of Lehigh university, renewed acquaintances here on Friday. BASE BALL DOTS. The Mauch Chunk News says: "If there is a better all around amateur bill player in the country than 'Barney' McFaddon, his admirers in this section would like to see him. 'Barnoy' can play any of the nine positions as they should be played." The first game at Drifton yesterday was played between the Fearnots and Hazleton Athletics. Tho vistitors forg ed ahead from the start, and won out easily by the score of 11 to 5. Lehigh ton club has, disbanded owing to the poor support given it by the town. Death of Patrick Boyle. Patrick Boyle died at his home on Ridge street on Saturday afternoon. Death was due to old age. Tho deceas ed was the husband of the lat.e Bridget Boyle, who died hero on May 11. lie was a genial old man, and onjoyed the respect of a large numbor of people. One daughter, Mrs. El ward P. Galla gher, survives him. Mr. Boyle was aged 70 years. The funeral will take place this afternoon. Interment will be made in St. Ann's cemetery. Another Freak. "That young man of yours," said the observing parent, as his daughter came down to breakfast, "should apply for a job in a dime museum." "Why, father," exclaimed the young lady in tones of indignation, "what do you mean?" "I noticed when T passed through the hall late last night," answered the old man, "that he had two heads upon his shoulders." A Boxful of OrderN. It is stated that the King of Siam, who recently visil id Europe, has had to have a special 1 ox made to hold all the insignia of the distinguished orders conferred on him by brother mon archy. Mine Workom Take Action. The movement begun recently to boom anthracite was discussed at a meeting of the Mine Workers Union at n&zlotou on Saturday, and District No. 7 passed tho following resolutions: "Whereas, It being apparent that dis tress has for some time and does still exist in the entire anthracite coal region, owing to the dullness in the anthracite coal trade, and "Whereas. In consoquence many of the people in our midst are sorely in need of the necessaries of life, bo it therefore "Resolved, That we appeal to our con gressmen to have an appropriation made by congress that will relieve tho people in need and to ask our government to use anthracite coal wherever it may be practicable to do so; and be it further "Resolved, That copies of these reso lutions bo sent throughout the entire an thracite region for signatures by the business men and the public at large." Actum Wore Warmly Received. A quartette of young men, claiming Weatherly as their homo, attempted to givo a free show at the Cottage hall on Saturday evening. They said tho per formance was intended to draw a crowd to whom tin) wonders of Kickapoo In dian medicine could bo related, but the show became so "yellow" that the actors had to ring down the curtain and escape via tho socret oxits before the program was concluded. It was, without doubt, tho most horrible burlesque on variety acting over inflicted on Frooland, and If an admission had boon charged the stage-struck young men would have fared badly at tho hands of the audi ence. As it was, every movable article iu tho hall was going stageward when some considerate person extinguished tho lights and permitted tho "actors" to disappear. Republican State CnndidatoH. The following ticket was selected by Matt Quay last week for the Republicans of Pennsylvania, and tho convention on Thursday nominated it: Governor—William A. Stone, of Alle gheny. Lieutenant governor—J. P. S. Uobin, of Lebanon. Secretary of internal alTairs—James W. Latta, of Philadelphia. Judgo of the superior court—William W. Porter, of Philadelphia. Congressmen-at-largo Galusha A. Grow, of Susquehanna; Samuel A. Davenport, of Erie. Some Republicans seem disposed to resent Quay's bossism, but the party in this state has so long been his slave that no attention is being paid to the threats to revolt. A Suicide's I'repunitions. Berlin 8. Kunkle, of Krcsgevillo, Mon l'oo county, committed suicide in a pe culiar manner. llu shot himself in tho mill race at that place. Kunkle first look a coil of rope and fastened one ond to a staple on the bank, then tied the other end around his waist. In his belt was a revolver, to which was tied a string. Ho had written a note which read: "You will find my body at tho head of tho mill race. A suit of clothes is In my valise to bury mo in when tho undertaker lias mo in preson table shape." The letter further said lie wanted no tombstone and provides for every detail of ids burial, evon to tho giving of 82 to each of the grave diggers. Kunkle was twice married, Ills first wife, who came from near l'ittston, lurking also shot her self to death. Hanitt-<1 Till lie Stopped Klcklnic. A case of youthful depravity has re cently come to public notice at Turn ers Falls, Mass. It appears that several boys from "Tough end," who had heard the particulars of the execution of O'Neil, concluded to try one of their number for the crime of murder. An empty freight car was used as a court room, and the trial proceeded with judge, jury, and full complement of officers. After the trial, in which the accused was found guilty, the sentence of death was pronounced upon the accused, and preparations taken to carry out the decree of the court. The death watch was set and a gallows improvised in the car. When the time drew near for the execution the condemned boy was mounted upon a box and the noose ad justed. The box was knocked out from under his feet, and the victim was told that when he stopped kick ing ho would be cut down. He waß soon unable to kick, and the break ing of the rope probably saved the boy's life. Some little time was re quired to bring the boy around. The ages of the boys are given as from 10 to 15, and the victim's age was about 12. The matter has been kept very quiet, and it was only by accident that the affair became known. 300 Mile* between Drink*.
