Some Idea of th" wonderful progress
of the (Si'i-man navy la gained when
oii realizes that Viee-Adiulral Kein
hold von Werner, whose death is an
nounced at the of 8 1, saw prac
I It-ally the birth of that navy n3 we
now know It. Wli.-n the (ierman fleet
was sold by auction In 1S."2 Werner
ntcun-d a comnilshion in the new Prus
sian navy, and during the war with
Denmark he commanded one of the
three steam frigates, then tlie prin
cipal ships of tin? Prussian navy. At
the date of the formation of the feder
al navy Werner was director of dock
yards at Danzig. In lSt.D, however,
the deceased vice-admiral returned to
active service, and at the time of his
! retirement In 1878 he held the com
i mand of the Ilaltlc station. He de
voted tho last :!0 years of his life to
the patriotic task of popularizing the
idea of that sea power which ho had
seen grow from insignificant propor
tions to a strength which has done so
much to stimulate the shipbuilding ol
other nations. He was a proline writ
er, and his authorship extended over
a long period. Kven at the time of
tho Ilattle of Jasmund he attracted at
tent ion by a work on the Prussian
navy, Its present and Its future.

Hallway of Carved Sicilian Carts.
A young woman in New York with

trotter knows, are painted In the most
vivid colors, and frequently show tint
examples of wood carving. The hall
way Is paneled wllh tho sides, fronts
and tailboards of carts, and the carv
ings lnc'ude cherubs' heads, angel
and saints. Spokes are used for bal
