Tho Auiorlcim tmvy Iiokhii In 1775, whun tho colonics onlertcl tho coiiHtruo. Hon of two criilwrn. At tho outbreak of tho Rovoliitlonary war Huvontei'ii Hlilpn, varying In nlzo from 000 to 1,000 tons, nml carryliiff from tun to thirty two Kim wero imrchanutl, ami by 1778 llio.su had IncreiiHod to thirty-two. From 1780 to 1780 thorti wito no fihljis, tlw navy havltiK bt-'on dontroyod, Htinlt, caji tured or-Holil; but in 1701, hIx frigates, of which tho Constitution wiih one, were ordered. Other worn built until 1801, when from thirty-two tho number was cut down to thirteen. In 180'.' tho gunboat period not in, nml tlte.Mo little boatH went built until tlio country owned S.11 of them. When thu wnr ot 181'J broku out wo had Huventeen crulHetH atioat. Tlio marveloux naval BiiccoHseH of tho United States nave an uuduo Importance to thu few Hhips, but for nil tlmt congress, when tho war closed, wont back to tho old policy. During tho period from 18'JO to 1855 tlio palling cruisers built by tills country lunched their greatest development in strength, npoed and ofllclency. Such ships lis tho Franklin became tho model of nil naval architects. In 1850 wo had nfloat or under construction ton lino of battle hhips, ono razee, fourteen frigates nnd twenty-two loops of wnr, liesldeit Hchooticrn, In 1855 wo had ilfty-threo ships in all, nud when tho war broke out in 1800 ttfty-six ships, carrying 8,000 guns. Wo begun tho wnr with 201 ships, mostly purchased, nnd 22,000 men. ended it with 01!) ships nnd 58,500 men. During this time tho genius of Ericsson had made the great advance of modern times in tho building of warships when he conceived nud built tlio turroted nnnitor. It is not too much to say that ho revolutionized naval architecture. A'fter tlio war tho government got rid of its surplus ships as rapidly as possi ble, selling for $7,000,000 that which hnd cost it $15,000,000. It kept tho best of them, nud tlio country, after the life at"' deatlt grapple it had just passed througu tattled down to rest and get its breath. Under these circumstances nud with the frightful war debt on it, to expect that the United States would upend money nnd effort to build ships was folly. What Americans wanted wns peace War nud tlio sombhiiico of wnr stank in their nostrils. Nnturnlly they allowed England nnd tho Continental nations to experiment in shipbuilding while sit ting back themselves nnd looking on. In 1881, public opinion having grown to tho point of demanding Hint a navy be built according to modern ideas, con gress passed a law appointing the first advisory lraard. This law was the (hit step toward the creation of our navy as it is now and will be in n fow years. That board recommended that seventy unarmored cruisers bo built. In 188!) tho construction of threo cruisers and u dispatch boat was authorized, and in 1885 five additional vessels were provided for. Up to and including the session last year twenty-five vessels were author ized, nud the present navy of tho United States is composed as follows: Dlaplaco mout. Sliced. Armored vessels Tons. Knots.

How tit .Shop (or Onti'a Wlfn. , To do u lady's shopping Is ono of tho most dlfllcult and dlsugree.blo task which ever falls to tho lot of man. A man, unlerut ho w a "man milliner," Is no judge of tho articles ho is usually asked to buy, ami lie even has no intelli gent opinion about them. Nor does he know what thuy should cost. There is no chance whatever that ho will make a bargain. So as to reduce tho cliam of mistakes to a minimum a man when shopping f)r Ills wife should get from her before he starts out tho minutest di rections as to each nrticlo nnd write these directions in his notebook in full. Ho should learn wnat each article ought to cost ami also inform himself wherein and how far he was to use his own dis cretion. With such directions, if a man will go to n shop and confess his igno rance nml exhibit his orders, ho 111 be taken chnrgoof and provided with every thing ho desires. Some men are trou bled with uu Inclination to think that they know it all. No better school of discipline could bo devised for such men than to have to do a lady's shopping. That will take all the conceit out of them. llmv to Sum- Still r Curprtn. Place u strip of very thick paper over Hie edge of each step, as that is where the carpet wears fastest.

Although the suburban train and cable car service to ward thu south is probably tho licst ol its kind In tho country, nml generally j eiputl to double tho demand mado upon i It, yet already it is being uncomfortabh , taxed, ami I am told that on nil llnet tho travel for tho mouth of October was twice as largo as over lioforo recorded for the same month, On Hiituh'ys, especially, immense crowds of people, representing all classed nud eondl.lons of society, turn their face.' toward tlio World's fair grounds, while it Is becoming something of a fad foi visitors from other places, no inattet whether they are hero on business oi pleasure, or how little time they have at their disposal, to do tho same thing. They seem to feel tiiat they cannot af ford to go away without taking a ru. down to Ja.'kson park. And yet there is not so much for tho ordinary visltoi to see. A high board fence, with very few entrances, surrounds the grounds, and Hie number of permits that are issued to enable the lavored ones to pa tho Cerberus nt the liiiiiu entrance are decidedly few and far between. Once inside, however, tho visitor is struck with tlio activity Hint prevails and with the progress that has so fm been mado. Away over toward tho west there Is a noise that sets one's teeth on edge, diversified occasionally by a series of shrill whistles, ami n sudden discharge of volumes of smoke fr.om a big stack, These nro Hie sawmills, where big force of men are turning out immense (inutili ties of lumber that are needed for the preparatory work on tlio various strue tures. From midnight on Monday morn lug until tho same hour on tho following Saturday night this work is not suspend ed for a moment. Only on the Sahbatli do the saws and the engines and the men that operato them take u breathing spell. Three gangs of men aro employed, ami from dusk until daybreak a score ot more of big electric lamps shed some thing of a weird light upon tho busy scene. Although they nro turning out nbout a carload of lumber every hour, Hiey aro barely keeping tip with what is demanded. A single building, that to he devoted to manufactures, hat n maw that Is simply ravenous. It i ;atiug up the product of tho mills nt the rate of nearly 200,000 feet a day, and from tho time tho ground wns broken up to today Its appetite has been equal to nearly -1,000,000 feet. Tltis structure, by tho way, will bo a i wonder, nnd were It to bo tho only lea ture of the fair It would amply repay the people who will come from tlio far- thest point of tlio continent. The city hall of New York ami Hie big music hall in St. Louis might lie put into a corner of it and they would look like architectural dwarfs. Ton such strue-' tuies as tho public building in Phila delphia or tho An litoritim in Chicago could Ik) put under its roof nud there would stl'l bo room for tho biggest crowd of visitors that tlio liveliest im agination expects to see in any one building at one nnd the same time. To ptit it in another way, four-fifths of all tlio structures that comprised in tho ag gregate tho Philadelphia centennial could find shelter within tlio four walls of litis extraordinary structuiv. On this building also work is being carried forward by day nud by night. The foundations aro practically com pleted, tho greater portion of tlio Hoot ing is done nud the immense central truss will soon bo in place. But it Is the Women's building tlmt will first have the honor of flying tlio Hag that will donote final completion. In fact, tho structure in which will bo displayed tho handi work of tho gentler sex of two continents ai.oliiu frjt liiiiiii a tt ( uti lllm ai ttm. ! I room.

Tills is one woman's way: Slio hns discarded all sorts of rubber cloaks and wears a long woolen or waterproof cir cular, with pointed hood and no arm slits, except in winter or a very hard rain. Shu has a rainy day drchs of good though not veiy expensive woolen material, which is not hurt by mud or rain. This comes out with the falling of tho barometer.

Thnt noted Frenchman, Paul Uelloui Du Chuillti, who was born in Paris in 1835, but bo came an American citizen at tlio ago of twenty-one, is of uu elusive nature, hav ing nil tho Inherent idiosyncrasies of n great traveler and the restless energy of a man of brains. Ho may bo in this city today, iu Boston tomorrow, or in Lon don next mouth. Nothing has come from his pen since the publication of "Tlio Viking Ago," by tho Scribners, in 1887, but a leading publishing houso i u Broadway, Now York city, is soon to issue botno three or four volumes for boys' reading by him, of tlio legends, traditions, customs and history of the Northmen, with tales and poetry of tin Noiolutid. Ho has not been on the pub lic platform since tlio years 1807-70, when hit created such a furore; but dur ing the coming winter he will again de liver a series of lectures treating of his African experiences nud details of travel in many lauds, in Hie leading cities ot the United State..
