: FORMER QUEEN OF SPAIN J
DIES AT PARIS. FRANCE
w tea
Ex Quoon Isabella of Spain, grand
mother of King Alfonso, died at Paris,
France, April 9.
Death was due to influenza with
implications. Tho American em
bassy, which Is opposite tho Palaito
Oantilo, the late queen's residence,
was early Informed of the queen's
death, and Ambassador Porter was
anions tho first to call and sign the
palace register.
The Infantas Isabella, Eulalla and
Marie, daughters of tho late queen,
were at tho bedside who nsho died.
Queen Isabella II. was the daughter
of Ferdinand VII., king of Spain, and
Mario Christina of Naples, and was
burn In 1831). When she was only 3
years old her father, Ferdinand, died,
and Isabella was declared queen,
while her mother undertook the oflice
of regent.

Isabella, through the efforts of Louis
I'hlllppo of France, was married to
her cousin, Francis of Asslsl, a most
unhappy marriage.
Tho history of Spain during the
reign of Isabella presents a dismal
picture of faction and Intrigue. The
country was rent by political jealousy
and In 18G8, Sarrano and Prim, the
liberal leaders who had been exiled
some years, returned and headed a
successful revolution, compelling Isa
bella to flee to France. A provincial
government was established, but tho
people of Spain, long accustomed to
view royalty with superstitious rever
ence, demanded the revival of the
monarchy.
The crown was offered to and ac
cepted by Alfonso XII., the young son
of Isabella, in 1S74.

"I do not mean to Intimate that we
are exactly destitute of fine stones,
but that those fouud are mostly of In
ferior quality as compared with the
output of the old mines. In North Car

they are not of sufficient value to
warrant cutting. Somo ve-y fine pearls
have been taken out of the shells

Caught Alligator With a Fishllne.
While deer, duck and nuail shoot inn-
have been better this season In tho
neighborhood of Tltusvlllo than In
several years, Rockledgo, Stuart and
a few other places seem to have the
expert fishermen. But It takes a Mer-
rltt nsherman to catch alligators. We
are told that a few days aeo a seven-
foot alligator was caught with a fish-
line. The line was set and baited with
a mullet, for trout. The alligator took
the bait and the hook fastened itself
In his throat. Had the lino been a
rope or chain It would have been
twisted apart or the hook torn out.
Tho alligator tired himself out and
was easily taken by slinnlne a rouo
over his nose, securing his flippers,
and towing him ashore, whero he was

Secular Sunday School.
In England and America the term
Sunday-school" has a definite mean
ing, and is exclusively used to denote
a place of religious teaching, 'n Ger
many, however, the race for commer
cial supremacy has led to the estab
lishment of Sunday-schools at which
mechanics are given practical Instruc
tion in their trades. There Is, for ex
ample, a school for masons, at which
the students, many of them mechanics
who work during the week, spend sev
eral hours on Sunday morning in learn
ing tho higher branches of their craft.
Similarly there are Sunday-schools
for tailors, ironmongers, bookbinders,
and followers of other trades even

Such a struggle, a race in which two
thousand men ami the best braitu i

against each other, Is hi progress to
lay. The eontestants are the I'r.ited
States government and a great ship

similar type, each to co3t about ?t.

whether the govern merit or the pri

the judges who will award the lau

of our navy yards. The national legis
lators demanded proof that the gov

less expense than private companies,

The Navy department accepted the
challenge.
"A difference of opinion makes
horses race," some one has said, and
it Is the same sort of difference that
Is responsible for this novel and un
precedented race against time.
Lnte In 1902 Congress authorized
the building of the two mammoth bat
tleships from the same plans. They
were to represent the highest degree
of the development in naval construc
tion reached at that time. Karly in
1903 the contract for building the
Louisiana was awarded to the New
port News Shipbuilding company, on
their bid of J3,Sif0,00O, and on Feb. 7
of the same year her keel was laid. To
tho Brooklyn navy yard was allotted
the task of building the Connecticut
in less time and for less money, and
on March 10 work was begun by tho
employes of the government. The con
test was on.

that formed a paper wall around his
dek. But. busy as he was. the con
Mruetor smiled amiably. Evidently
his big job had not "gotten m l.U
nerves." And w'.cn iia.-.i ,i,
listener decided that this was Just the j
sort of man to build on,. f iho great- j
est lighting machines ever projected,
just the sort of man to lea l this race
of races.
"Now. I've always maintained that
there should be no feeling of rivalry
between the men who are building the
Louisiana and myself," he began with
another reassuring smile. ' There Is,
properly speaking, no contest with
them it Is a rac,e against time. We
are, each of us, building what la de
signed to be a great battleship, and
my task is to eoaipb te the Connecti
cut within the limit of both time and
money set fur the Newport News
company in building the Umisiana.
It is merely a te:-t of the navy yard
not one ef the Newport News peo
ple. "As to whether we shall win there is
a grave question. We are making an
uphill fight. The government yards
are at a disadvantage in competing
with private concerns for several rea
sons. For one thing the private yards
get ten hours' labor in a day for the
same price that the government pays
for eight hours' work. There is, you
f-'je, a difference of something like
25 per cent in favor of the private
yards in so far as labor is concerned.
In addition, one must tako iuto con-

slderatlon the twenty holidays within
a year when no work Is done In the
government yards, but for which, nev
ertheless, the men are fully paid. So
much for labor.
"In the matter of material It Is well
known that the method of govern
ment purchases is cumbersome. A
private concern can buy at less c it
almost all the material that gc s
toward the equipment of a battleship.
So you must realize that we have a
hard race to make.
"in the matter of time we are alio
at a disadvantage. When the fleet is
at sea we can devote all our time to
the Connecticut, but when the ships
come In, demanding repairs, we are
compelled to give them the preference
and then all work upon the big battle
ship Is practically at a standstill.
"It Is accepted at present by naval
experts that the battleships of a navy
form Its backbone, as It were. It v as
with this Idea In mind that the plan
ners of the Connecticut and Louisiana
worked In forming their designs.
