ThoCliincHU liavohad dry docks for a
thousand or two yearn, and tho naval
powers of Huropo havo spent untold mill
Ions In Htich appliances. Uut tho United
States, I nm told, han taken a stop which
will revolutionize tho dry dock business,
Just ns it has In times past taken stops
which liavo led to revolutions In tho
building of warships, It in altogether
appropriate that this now idea in tho con
truction of dry docks should como at
this day, which Is tho dawning of tho
bow nary. And it is worth whilo tuon
tioning hero that tho new navy, tho
dream of enthusiasts, tho despair of tax

on tho Beait. Secretary Blaine onco said
to mo:' "There Is no diplomacy without

Uc, Everywhere, they declared, tho
popular sentiment is for a now nnd great
navy. It is a sentiment that Humes up
on tho prairies of Iowa nnd Illinois, Kan

No man or toast wni so much cheered
over tho wine that followed tho water
into tho dock ns this: "Hero's to tho now

I
I HOW TIIK WATKU HUS1IKS IN.
While wo nro pressing forward, there
fore, ship by ship hnd gun by gun, to a
bow navy that will make our words
atmng and our diplomatea potential
everywhere, this now dry dock lecomes
A thing of importance It is a part of
the navy, essential to tho navy. It it
unlike tho dry docks of Europo and tho
aider docks in this country because It is
built of Umber. A fow yards away is an
eld dock uiado of stono, started when
John Qulncy Adams was president of
the United States, nnd completed under
Andrew Jackson. It has dono service
from that day to this, but has cost sev
eral fortunes in repairs. Tho frost takes
hold of it nnd fills it full of cracks nnd
teams. But tho new dock is built of co
meat and plno timber. Tho cement will
last forever, tho tlmler facing for a llfo
tlmo. Whero decay sets in replenish
ment may bo easily effected.
I havo 6aid tho dry docking of a ves
sel is a pretty process, and I'll prove it.
Tho Yantio, famous for her Arctic voy
ages, lies out in Elizabeth river with
barnacles hanging to her copper bottom
ami in sad need of n scrape. She is In
holiday attire. Signal flags make n fore
and aft lino of red, whlto and blue from
her stem to her stern. The Union Jack
and the rear admiral's (lag float from
her tops. Her brass guns glisten in tho
sun. Tho captain nnd his ofllcers are
resplendent in dress parade, n bit of gilt
showing on tho dark blue, white gloves
gripping trumpets of gold, on tho quar
tor deck. Fore, aft and midships nro
groups of jack tars, merry fellows who
are no: afraid to show their bronzed
breasts through tho lapels of tho sailor
jacket, nor their teeth when tho whis
pered jest goes round out of ofllcers'
Mjshot. Even ho gunners nro ut their
posts, looking anything but bloodthirsty.
Only the captain and tho marines tire
solemn. The latter, drawn up proudly
. in line, carbines nnd ship swords ia
place, helmets on lelr heads and the
atriao. thereof un(k. their high held
all stla and ungainly, form a
.yVir . 1 ,.r" ,.iJrn
striking contrast to tho nctlvo Mid unre
strained tars who loh nlwtit them.
Tho deck of tho Ynntlo is full of poo
pto, Ono says you couldn't llro n gun
shot across her hroadsldo without carry
ing a dozen men overboard. Another
Inquires If nil those people sail in tho
ship when she goes out to sen,
"Certainly," says jolly Admiral .lonctt.
"She Is crowded, that's truoj hut, you
see, wo havo mora sailors than ships,
more gunners than guns, more marines
than marine Wo havo tho men nnd
tho money, too, hut, by Jingo, wo haven't
tlin oraft to put thorn In,"
So, as Mr. lllalno says, everything
comes hack to tho question of n new
navy. Wo havo tho dlplomatcs, nnd tho
national prido, nnd tho maritimo nnd
commercial ambition, and tho sailor lads
and nil thnt, hut wo haven't tho ships
nnd tho guns.
Tho Ynntlo Is waiting to get In tho dry
dock. Tho invited guests are gathered
nbout a grunt liolo in tho ground, It is
nearly thirty-three foot deep nnd moro
than live hundred feet long. Now It Is
orfectly dry, nnd iricn nnd women wnlk
down to tho bottom, tho timbers of
which It Is constructed forming every
where a lllght of stairs with eight inch
risers and ten Inch treads. Everybody
says It is n big thing, that you could put
a row of three story city houses a block
long in it, thnt n gamo of baHobnll could
bo played on Us (loor, that It would bo a
beautiful place for n circus or n bull
light or n Bulllvnn-Kllraln mill.
.Suddenly everybody makes a dush for
tho top. Old men nnd young hastily
climb tho stnlrs. The roar of water Is
heard and a glance shows six stalwart
streams, each ns thick ns a man's Ixxly,
pouring In through tho Iron caisson.
Quickly the tloor Is covered with surg
lug. bubbling water. Btep by step tho
-visitors retreat toward tho top, tho wa
ter following. Boon tho two rows of
bllgo blocks in tho bottom nro submerged.
Tho Iron caisson, somolody polutH out,
in simply a big gate at tho mouth of tho
dook. On ono side of tho gate is tho
river, on tho other tho basin, or dock.
A man has opened tho sluice gates, nnd
tho river Is pouring through them When
tho huge basin is nearly full, for of course
tho wntor continues rushing In long after
tho six streams havo been submerged,

tho crowd lluds Itself gathered nbout tho
banks of n lake. Then pumps nro put
.it work, and tho water is pumped out of
r,ho reservoirs in tho caisson. This big
gate rests against tho sill nnd abutments
of tho dock, which nro pndded with rul
bor. Tho pressure of tho weight of
water from tho outside forces thocnisson
ngnlust tho rublor nnd gives air tight
joints. As tho water is pumped out of
tho reservoirs tho caisson rises. Now
tho dock is full of water, and tho caisson
Is floating. A ropo Is thrown out, n
dozen lusty men grasp it, tho gate is
pulled ono sido, nnd there are tho dock
nnd tho river meeting on tho samo level.
All eyes nro turned upon tho Ynntio.
Her whlstlo blows nnd her scrowB begin
turning. Tho captain leaves tho quarter
deck nnd climbs upon tho bridge, whero
ho stands on tiptoe. Ho waves his hand
nnd shouts:
"Out with thntforostn'bo'd lino there?'
An ofllcer twenty feet nwny salutes
with his whlto gloved hand and sings
out:
"Out with that foro sta'lw'd lino!"
A boatswain bold touches his cap and
responds:
"Aye, aye, ulrl"
"Out with that sta'bo'd lino now!"
And tho tars shout, "Ayo, ayo, sir!"
nnd lay to. Tho starboard lino is thrown
out, mado fast, tho capstan is manned
nnd the tars cry "hoavo oh!"
Tho Ynntlo approaches tho dock slow
ly, carefully.
Moro lines aro thrown out, foro and
aft, sta'bo'd and la'bo'd. Thero aro In
numerable commands to tighten up and
slack up, countless salutes nnd passing
along of commands, choruses of "Ayo,
ayo, sir!" And nt last the Yantio has
reached tho very center of tho lake that'
Is enclosed by tho walls of plno and
cemont.
Through all this maneuvering tho ma
rines movo not a muscle.
Tho big caisson is floated tuck into
place, thus closing tho gato and separat
ing dock from river. Water is let in Its
rceorvoirs and It settles down into tho
mud, its faco pressing hard aguinst tho
rubber surface of tho abutments. Now
tho big pum ps nro started. It is no small
task before them, taking out the water

WAlTEIl WKU.MAN.
MRS. LATHHOP, PREACHER.
A Woiiiiiii YVIiimo Kliiiimit Vnlco Ia Llftcil
Up fur ClirUlliuilly.
0Hctiil C'orri)i)oiideiice.
Chicago, Oct. n. Unliko tho proverb
ial prophet who Is "not without honor
savo In his own country," Mrs. Lathrop
is chiefly honored In her own stato nnd
town. She was lorn In 1838, ut Con
cord, Jackson county, Mich. Ilor child
hood wan spent in tho grind of a scanty
living, amid tho hardships of pioneer
life. In those days thero were no rail
roads west of Detroit, nnd fnrm life In
Jackson county was a hand to hand con
flict with nil that goes to mnko up an
entirely undeveloped country.
Her mother, who was of Scotch-Irish
extraction nnd a woman of splendid
strength of chnractor, was left n widow
while Mrs. Lathrop wan yet a little child.
This fact made tho daughter's girlhood
nnd early womanhood especially lalnirl
ous. But tho severe friction of this time
did not lenvo Its Impress in n coarse,
angular life. As havo tho inspired
through nil tho nges Mrs. Lnthrop, then
Mary Torrenco, listened to tho voices
audible only to tho inner senso nnd was
inspired nnd rellucd by thorn, whilo her
frugal busy life gavoher n healthy, robust
development.
Tho only school sho attended was tho
ordlnnry country public bcIiooI. How
over, sho was fortunnto in having hnd
teachers who gavo hor advice which en
ublcd her to go forward with hor educa
tion without their nld. nnd sho lecnmo,
by hor own unaided efforts, nn excellent
scholar.
In speaking of what led her to becomo
a preacher, Mrs. Lathrop says: "When
I was converted, nt tho ngo of 10 years,
I felt that I was
divinely called to
preach, although
1 hnd boon
brought up vory
strictly in the
Presbyterian
oh u roh, whero
women never
speak. Tho in
tense conviction
which I received
at that tinio per
sisted with mo
through nil tho " iATiiitoi
yenrs until I arrived nt mnturo woman
hood. I then found myself compelled,
by a profound religious experience,
known only to myself, to enter upon tho
duties of the ministry. It was miide
possible for me to do so in n way that
then seemed nnd now appears to mo di
vine Nothing less than such a call, in
such a wny, would havo led mo to
preach, for environment, education nnd
personal timidity woro nil ngnlust mo."
Mrs. Lnthrop's sormons, whilo not
models of diction nnd rhetorical stylo,
nro practical, powerful, persuasive and
bo touched with pathos, earnestness and
occasional glints of humor ns to bo
unique
Bishop Simpson, of tho Methodist
church, ufter listening to her, said: "God
certainly lias called nnd anointed our sis
ter to preach his gospel." It id Carlylo
whosayr,: "Let him who .would movo
and, convince others bo first moved and
convinced himself." It is undoubtedly
duo to tho fact that her own naturo is
deeply stirred that Mrs. Lathrop is' ablo
to hold tho attention of vast audiences,
to movo them profoundly nnd with en
durng effect. Dealing with overy day
Interests, and not far fetched exegesis,
sho declares n life rather than n belief.
Divining tho heart's needs sho reveals
compassion, sympathy nnd forgiveness.
In 1805, while teaching in tho public
schools of Detroit, she mot nnd married
Dr. O. C. Lathrop, who was n surgeon in
the Ninth Michigan cavalry. Until this
tlmo sho hud been a member of tho Pres
byterian church, but after her marriaira
sho joined tho Methodist church with
her hunband. Mrs. Lathrop has from
year to year held a locnl preachor's 11
censo from tho conference of tho Metho
dist church, but has never been ordained.
Although sho has given her first nnd
best efforts to her milnit work, sho has
accomplished a great deal In other lines.
When sho was 1 1 years old sho began to
contribute to tho press, nnd has written
moro or less over since. Much of her
work has been widely copied, partial
larly n poom. "Tho Dead Muich, which
is n favorite with elocutionists.
Mrs. I-atlnop wus largely Instrumental
in establishing n state institution In
Michigan for tho reform of fallen wo
men. Tho pitiful needs of this class ap
pealed strongly to her ardent uml tender
nature, nnd In 1878 she began to agitate
tho subject of mnklng some especial
provision for them. Sho gavo herself no
rest until tho legislature of Michigan had
appropriated $10,000 for the purpot.o of
establishing an institution at Adrian.
Mrs. Lnthrop's husband is in sympathy
with her in nil her work. She is the
inistresjof n charming household, which
consists of two adopted nieces and her
mother, who is now well on In the nine
ties. Sho is nt present president of the
Michigan state organization of tho Wo
men's Christian Temperance union and
is dovoting herself to temperance und
evangelical work.

Is now going tho rounds, told by a person.who
claims to havo been in tho body guard of tho
unfortunato King Ludwlg.of Ravarla, which
says that tho lato king was not Insane, and
that tho cuuso of all tho troublo of tho much-to-be-pltled

an unbounded Influence ovor tho Ravarlan

who prevailed upon him to withdraw from
