The Seventh regiment of New York city Is a "swell*' military organization that numbers among its members sonic of tho leading "aristocrats"' of the me tropolis. In the year of our Lord 18% the membership of the regiment turned out to a man and participated in a body in the parade held in honor of the "sound money" cause. Just about that time they were mighty fearful lest the nation should "dishonor itself h\ electing liryan to the presidency." "If he is elected we will not submit," tliex said. Well, they didn't have to subipit and their man is now in the White House calling for the volunteer militia to go to the front against a foreign foe. In the face of all this, they, by unanimous vote, refused to go to the country's defense. Was there ever such an indictment of the scoundrels®who were prating about "the old flag,"' "a sound money" and "national honor" in 18%? There Is another Seventh regiment—in Illinois. It is wholly composed of Irish American citizens of Chicago. They are a plain lot of young men, and, as a gen eral rule "earn their bread by the sweat of their brow." Naturally they are Democrats, and all through the trying days of the campaign of 1800 faltered not in their allegiance to him who bore the standard of Democracy aloft from July 'J to November 3. Their idol failed to reach the goal, but like true Ameri can citizens they submitted to the result without question. Hut they, too, have hoard tho chief magistrate's call to arms, and linani mously they voted to go to the front to defend their country's honor. Hardly had the "bugle call" boon sounded when they were in their uniforms and ready for the battle. Today they are swelter ing in the heat at Chickamaugn, while their New York numerical namesakes are lolling in mountain breezes far from fevers and Spanish load. There should be no party spirit mani fested in this trying time, but we cannot lei these two incidents pass without re marks. John Wanamaker, whose proud boast a short time ago was: "1 have never voted against a Republican in my life," is casting sheep's eyes at the big inde pendent movement which has sot in against Stone, and riunor has it that lie would not be adverse to considering the Democratic nomination for governor if the platform were con lined solely to state issues. The trouble with John, who by his acknowledgement that he has supported every political monstrosity which Quay has foisted on the party in Pennsylvania and Philadelphia forfeits all rospect, is that "do gang" will no longer divvy with him when state treas uries, national banks and trust com panics are being looted. While Waunv got part of tho plunder he said not a word. A Lehigh Valley Railroad train brought J. J. McGarvoy, of Philadel phia, the well known newspaperman, t this borough last Friday. Mr. McGar voy, in speaking of the political situa tion In the state, said that "Democrats in Philadelphia are of the opinion that the party can elect a governor this fa 1 I if a good candidate is put np and an aggrnssivo campaign conducted. Mat thew Dittman, the leading German- American lawyer in Philadelphia, be lieves that if .lodge Gordon or some other live Democrat were put on the ticket the Democrats would be success ful on election day." CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought or. davio favorite itfNjjpvsßemedy The one sure cure for J The Sidney's.liver and Blood FARRAGUT IN THE RIGGING. Story of tlie Man Who Fattened Him on the "Hurt ford." It Is a familiar, but always thrilling story, how Admiral Farragut, in carry ing his fleet into Mobile bay, on August 5, 1864, posted himself up in the rig ging of his flag-ship, the Hartford, and directed the sailing and lighting from that exposed elevation. He had to sail between two formidable forts — Gaines on the one hand, Morgan on tho other—over a line of hidden piles and a line of torpedoes, and then, when he had got over these strong and compli cated defenses and was within the bay, he had to engage a strong Con federate squadron. The brilliancy and bravery with which the enterprise was carried through, to the complete defeat of the Confederates, can never be forgotten. JOHN" H. KN'OWLEB. To give him a stay, while posted in the rigging of the Hartford, the Ad miral, as everybody remembers, was bound to the rigging by a rope. John H. Knowles, the kind and brave old quartermaster who did the lashing, died on the 9th of April, 1894, and was buried with naval and military cere monies in the naval cemetery at An napolis. He little imagined, as he climbed the rigging, amid the whistle and shriek and perfect hail-storm of shot and shell, and mighty roar of the heavy guns, to secure the safety of his fearless commander, that he was writ ing his name upon the page of history and making himself famous for all time to come. He served his country loyally and faithfully upon the sea for forty years in the Brooklyn, the Done gal, the Constellation and on the Phlox, and on the Hartford through the entire war and in all her engage ments. A Scene of Terror In Imlln. A Bengal Post Office superintendent has received from one of his Babu in spectors this report of an accident at a river which had to be forded owing to the breakdown of a bridge: "As I was to pass the river or water through my cart for absence of any boat some alligators ran on my oxen hence the oxen getting fear forcibly took away my cart in an abyss below the water of 12 feet which the cartman failed to obstruct. The oxen forcibly left the cart and fled to the other side of the river by swimming. I myself being inside the matscreen of my cart the whole cart fell down in the abyss, I used to cry loudly at the time. The cart with myself was drowned in the meantime the Overseer Babu Mehendra Nath Ghose and my cook Jumped on the water and took my cart in a place where 4'/h water than I myself jumped on the water and saved my life. The al ligators getting fear from the cart fled to the roadside and no sooner we came to the road they jumped on the water. Had I been tinder suffocation for 3 minutes more then there was no hope of my life. • * The nearest resi dents told thereafter that some men died this year in the abyss by the at tack of the alligators. lam much un well the voice of my speech is fallen low and out of order from the suffoca tion." An IncMMliilonn Yoiiiik Wife. A wife's unjust suspicions were the cause of very strained relations recent ly between a young couple living in Columbia avenue, near Twentieth street. She got the idea into her head that her husband was deceiving her [ when he said, as he frequently did, that he was "going around the corner for the evening to see a friend." In an attempt to do a little detective work she bought a pocket pedometer, an in strument resembling a watch, which registers the distance travelled by the person who carries it. The next time her husband went "around the corner" she secretly slipped it into one of his pockets and awaited the result. When lie returned that night she found that the telltale instrument registered nine miles. In vain he attempted to con [ vince her that he simply had been ; playing billiards with his friend on the j latter's private table, which was really | the case, and that tho machine had counted up the miles as he walked j around the table. Her accusations led to a violent quarrel, which was settled ' only after several days had elapsed. Out of Dniijxr. "Has he given up smoking since he became engaged?"

IT TAKES $1,500 A DAY TO RUN ONE OF THESE VESSELS. The Dally Expensed of the Navy Foot Up •50,000- Facts Which Explain Why These Marine War Machines Cost So Much to Maintain. What is the average daily cost of maintaining a first class battleship on a war footing? One thousand five hundred dollars. A large sum of money, but insignificant when com pared with what the cost might he in case of action, when the conflict of a single minute could sink the largest ship, with her entire armament, and require the expenditure of more than $5,000,000 to replace her. Reliable estimates cannot be made when the fortunes of war must be taken into account, but the cost of maintaining our navy on its present footing immediately before the firing of the first gun in actual conflict is known. That cost is $50,000 for each day. For an interesting example of the cost of maintaining a battleship in time of peace, when war is not even threatening, I have procured from the records of the War Department the ' cost of maintaining the New York, the , most expensive ship in our navy. The : cost for last year was $391,005.60, or an I average of $1,086.29 per day. The va rious items that go to make up this total annual cost will apply for the j present purpose to our armored crui sers and battleships, though, of course, varying according to constantly ; changing circumstances, and now be ing increased by the war footing on which our navy rests. Of the $391,- ; 065.60 spent by the New York in 1897, $237,762.76 was for the pay of the offi cers, crew and marines; rations cost $35,542.60; equipment. $6,835.21; navi- j gatlon, $3,216.58; ordnance, $14,743.70; construction and repair, $9,163.05; steam engineering, $28,261.26. Then there were incidental expenses, navy yard repairs, medicine and surgery and similar items. The records show that the pay of the officers, crew and marines of the New York were greater than that of any other vessel, while the rations, medi oine and surgery and coal accounts were very much less. The record of the ill-fated Maine is closed, though her memory is a liv ing inspiration, and this record shows that the total cost of her maintenance for 1897 was $262,416.48. The pay of her survivors, and of those whose re mains are yet with her wreck, or have found burial in Cuba and the United States, was $159,126.60. One of these great battleships is a floating citadel. It is a town of five hundred inhabitants, more securely fortified and far better armed for of fence and defence than was any walled and turreted city that has ever ex isted. Her steel walls can resist any attack of guns less than her own. When she rnecbs similar ones then comes the tug of war. If our floating citadel is the Indiana, for instance, we have steel walls 350 long with 69 feet between them at the widest point, holding engines of war and propulsion of the most terrific power, all under the control of the highest human intelligence. This is a moving city of animate force, con trolled energy and inanimate strength, that can be directed at will and its 10,288 tons moved at the rate of seven teen miles an hour, propelled by 9,738 horse power. Powerful as it is, it must, so near as possible, resist an equal power. And what is necessary in defence is better realized when we consider that she may have to cope with guns that, by the explosion of 900 pounds of pow der, can throw a single shot, weighing nearly a ton, at the velocity of 2,000 Xeet per second. This shot has a strik ing energy of 54,000 foot tons. One foot ton is the energy required to raise 2,240 pounds one foot against gravity. Multiply that energy by 54,000 and comprehend the result if you can. No wonder that the maintenance of a single ship to accomplish all that is desired of it costs $1,500 each day. The llomb In J(T Davis's Dealt. When the United States troops oc cupied Richmond, Va., April 3, 1865, General Edward 11. Ripley, of Ver mont, who was appointed military gov ernor of the city, found in the desk of Jefferson Davis, in the house occu pied by the Confederate President, a cast-iron bomb in the shape of a lump of coal. It was evidently cast from a good-sized piece of coal, was coated with coal tar and coal dust, and could hardly be distinguished when handled from a lump of coal. It was hollow, and would hold powder enough to make a heavy explosion. Army au thorities have never doubted that the otherwise unexplained blowing up of a steam vessel loaded with ammuni tion at City Point was the work of a bomb of this kind, which had been dropped into pile of coal and shov elled into the furnace of the steamer, and similar bombs probably occasioned similar catastrophes during the war.

IT THROWS A BEAM TWO HUN DRED MILES TO SEA. Located at Sandy Honk and in Used to Re veal tlio Presence of Hostile Ships Men acing New York City—tt is the Largest of Its Kind in the World. Not the least effective of the many ap pliances which the Government has erected in the outer harbor, for the protection of New York City, is a new invention for casting a ray of light seaward for the pur pose of revealing to the gunners the pres ence of hostile ships. For some time sever al members of the Signal Corps and officers of the artillery have been experimenting with the search-lights at Sandy llook and Fort Wadsworth. At present there are two projectors at Fort Wadsworth, each having reflectors thirty inches in diameter. It is intended to place two lights of th 6 THROWS A LIGHT TWO HUNDRED MILES. same power on the works at Fort Hamil ton. The single great search-light at Sandy Hook is the largest in the world. It was constructed by the General Klectric Com pany for purposes of exhibition, and was so juccessful that the Government purchased it and placed it at Fort Hancock, where it now sweeps the sea for thirty miles from its pedestal, close to the shore of the Hook. This great light is 10 feet 0 inches from the pedestal to the top of the ventilator. Its weight is (1,000 pounds, but so perfectly is it balanced that a child can move it at will. I'l/e reflecting lens is 60 inches in diameter. It is a concave, spherical mirror and re flects a sensibly parallel ray of light This lens is 6'4 inches thick at the edge and only l-lfl of an inch thick at the centre. It weighs 800 pounds. The metal ring which surrounds it is 750 pounds in weight Just how far a beam of light reflected by this projector can be seen lias not yet been definitely determined. It is estimated that it is capable of manifesting itself for a distance of between 200 and 000 miles. The 30-inch projector now at Fort Wads worth, and soon to be placed at Fort Ham ilton, throws a beam of light nearly a hun dred miles. The power of the light is ap proximately equal to 100,000 candles. llnliit.M of Aitininls CkniiKe. Civilization's advance is responsible | for a remarkable change of habits in more than one wild animal. A familiar I instance is that of the kea, the great I New Zealand parrot, which was for merly esteemed as a friend to the far mer, but which has become a dreaded I scourge on account of its acquired taste for the kidney fat of sheep. Dr. 3chonland mentions the ehacma bab : oon as a Cape Colony animal that has become similarly transformed. It has taken to killing lambs for the milk ' with which they have filled their stom achs, and it is increasing to an alarm ing extent on account of its wariness and the protection and natural food afforded by the fast-spreading prickly | pear. Another South African example ; is the so-called "wet-gat spreouw" I (Spreo bicolor). This animal is now very destructive to fruit, which a few ! years ago it was never known to touch, its food consisting chiefly of insects. The Maanhaar jackal seems to have partially acquired a new liking. While its ordinary food is insects, and Dr. Schonland has been unable to find any thing else in its stomach, farmers in certain districts—possibly where man has reduced its food—insist that it is very destructive to small stock. 1II| Pockets Unlawful. South Carolina's latest plan for re ducing the number of homicides is a bill recently Introduced in the Legis lature which makes it unlawful to have a hip pocket in the rear of the trousers or coat. Provision, however, is made for persons who may be permitted, for good reason, to carry a gun; they are granted a license, but must also wear conspicuously a metal badge which bears the legend: "I have my gun con cealed." Antwerp nn Ivory Market. Antwerp recently has become the principal ivory market of the world. It has surpassed Liverpool for nearly two years in the amount of imports. This change of centre is due to the fact that, while all the tusks from cen -1 tral tropical Africa were formerly car ried to Zanzibar and thence to Bom bay and Liverpool, a large part of the trade has now been diverted down the Congo to the Belgian steamers, and they land the product at Antwerp.
