FASTEST BATTLESHIP
Uncle Sams New Sea Fighter the
Michigan and Her Work
If naval battles of the future are to
be the terrible affairs the experts pre
dict then Uncle Sams latest addition
to his fleet the Michigau is the type
of sea fighters most needed Not only
did she prove during her recent trial
to be the best all around vessel in the
navy but also the fastest battleship
we have making an average speed or
between 19 and 20 knots
The new sea fighter which is of
000 tons displacement is of what Is
known among naval men as the semi
Dreadnought class Her armor and
armament being fully up to the stand
ard for her displacement naval offi
cers are extremely gratified over her
fine speed showing It means they
say the extreme of efficiency for her
size
Even in the American navy there are
faster ships than the Michigan but
not of the battleship class The cruis
ers Minneapolis and Columbia can as
1 naval officer expressed it beat the
Michigan with one leg They have
l speed of 23 knots And the scouts
the Chester the Birmingham and the
Salem have made 2G knots How it
impedes a ship to carry fighting imple
ments and defensive equipment is
shown by the fact that the

Mrs Adolphe Maillard n sHter of Mrs

more nl a novelty I mm those days
which were filled with youthful esea
ades 1 did not see Frank Crawford

New York This lad wants to be a
writer said his Uncle Sam I wish
that yon would give him a chance to

POLENTA
A Woman Tells of Her Introduction to
the Italian Dish
Did you ever eat polenta Hear
what one woman has to tell you be
fore you say no
Just let me tell you about my in
troduction t this Italian dish Last
summer after 1 bad closed our camp
in the mountains 1 was invited to
spend the night with an acquaintance
who had the nest camp
She is a charmiug woman one who
has lived abroad more than in this
jouutry She is devoted to Italy and
things Italian and her cook from
southern Italy has been with her sev
eral years
As I was about to retire my host
ess said to me Pardon me but 1
didnt think to ask you what you pre
ferred to have for breakfast Keally
before I had opportunity to frame a
reply she continued We always have
polenta Antonina makes delicious po
lenta so I always have it I did uot
know polenta 1 was quite sure hut it
certainly sounded most attractive and
so 1 replied 1 am sure i should like
polenta especially it Antonina maUes
it and I went to my room with my
appetite already whetted for polenta
made by Antonina
The next morning I awaited that
meal with the greatest expectancy
The polenta was served and 1 tasted
it Was it good
It certainly was but I had eaten It
hundreds of times before only we pro
saic Americans call it cornmeal mush
Truly that is polenta A name
makes lots of difference doesnt it
she concluded Houston Post
Professional Orators
When Lord Kosmead then Sir Her
cules Robinson was governor of New
South Wales in the early seventies it
fell to his lot to admit the erstwhile
cannibal kingdom of Fiji as an in
tegral part of the British empire
During the incidental ceremonies he
noticed that none of the great fighting
chiefs spoke in person and that each
of them bad a professional orator ou
his staff As an Irish mau with a
strong sense of humor Sir Hercules
was naturally tickled by such a novel
situation aud when he got back to
Sydney he repeatedly eulogized the ar
rangement pointing out that the man
of action was very rarely a man of
words and that civilization might very
well learn a lesson from Pacific chiefs
Loudon Chronicle
Well Trained
A farmer finding a motor horn in
the road took it home determined to
turn it to some use So he taught his
poultry to gather for meals at its toot
and all nature may be said to have
smiled till one morning a motor car
passing the farmyard blew a loud
blast The full strength of the poultry
yard instantly ran out into the road
and began to pursue the car with all
the ardor of railway travelers charging
into the refreshment room At the end
of the fifth mile fourteen pullets aud
three roosters succumbed through ex
haustion The rest are still ruuuing
