TO BE THE BEST OF NAVIES. I
Appropriation! Will II Asked (of Many
Hew hip.
CmoAoo, Aug. 18. 'A dispatch to the
Chicago Record from Washington says;
Tb Nary department will auk Con
grew to authorise the eonNtruotlon of
the largest and moHt formidable battle
hlpe and cruisers afloat, vessel with
out eqnala in an foreign fleets and In
comparably superior In offensive
power, speed and endurance, to any of
tha magnificent ships which destroyed
Ccrvera'a squadron.
This decision, reached at a meeting
of tho naval board of construction,
will be urged upon Congress for
prompt action, supported by argu
limits of the most convincing char
actor.
"The board practically agreed to
begin the design of three battleships
of between 13,000 and 14,000 tons dis
placement, with at least nineteen
knot maintained spued. It was also
determined to recommend three first
cIams cruisers of about 13,000 tons and
of not less than twenty-two knoti
speed.
"in addition to these a class of pro
tected and partly armored cruisers of
between 0,000 and 0,000 tons, as well as
a new class of 2, (500-ton cruisers.
"The battleships will be designed to
whip any fighting vessel in the world,
of whatever class, and the cruisers are
to be moro formidable than any ves
sels of their speed up to this time in
Europe.
"The board made no reference to
torpodo boats, and is not disposed to
recommend any further Increase of the
fifty-one vessels of that type now built
or authorized,"
MEATS FOR FOREIGN ARMIES.
ports That (Ires! Ilrltsln, lluiule and
4 JspAQ Are Keying Heavily of ts.
Cjmoaoo, Aug. 18, The Chicago
Record says: Great Krltaln, Russia and
Japan have entered the markets of the
United Htales for the purpose of pur
chasing provisions, sjoIi as canned and
salted meats for use in their armies
and navies. For several weeks a rumor
has been in circulation among the pack
ing houses at the Stock yards to this
effect and now it is confirmed. What
such an order as will probably be
placed by each country will be, can
only be estimated from the amount
ordered by our government during the
early part of the war between the
United Htates and Hpaln. Hut it is
, safe to say that each foreign power
now figuring for the purchase of pro
visions will place an order for at least
i,o)0,(00 pounds.
Whether or not the American pack
ers will be able to secure tho full
amount of the foreign powers' orders
depends upon the prices placed by the
packers. Already some of (he big
packers are sending out their repre
sentatives to meet those of the other
countries to confer with them and sub
mit bids for furnishing all or part of
whatever orders may be placed.
GOTHAM MYSTERY.
toting Woman round Murdered In the
Grand Hotel.
New Youx, Aug.' !. Emlllne C.
I Reynolds, a young unmarried woman
about 21 years of age was found mur-
dered in tho Grand hotel, at Thirty-
first street and Broadway, in this city
yusierday. Her death' had evidently
resulted from repeated Mows on the
head with a piece of lead pipe. The
crime had been committed sumo time
between midnight and 3 o'clock yester
day morning, but the police have not
as yet been able definitely to deter
;min whether the motive was one of
robbery or Otherwise, though they are
inclined to the former belief.
After some hours of investigation,
and upon statements given by the
mother of the dead girl, Dr. Samuel J.
Kennedy, a young dentist uf this city,
was arrested and is being held on
euspio)on of the murder. The fact
that aot only the murdered woman
was robbed, but that another robbery
was ciKniultted on the same floor, In
aline the police to the belief that the
woman was killed In an attempt to
prevent robbery.

Worth Knowing About Fruits.
If a man persists in using or trying
to use that for which he has neither
power for digestion nor assimilation,
he must, without doubt, pny the pen
alty. To many persons strawberries
are such a violent poison that a single
dish will produce a rash In less than
two hours. The rooking of the fruit
seems to destroy this active, Irritating
principle, but agsln, here romi our
fashion of adding sugar. Canned or
preserved fruit, as well as Jams and
kindred articles, are to be condemned
on account uf the mass of sugar used.
With (he fruits it Is more prone to
fermentation, and eveu If the sugar
Is Inverted we have a fsr greater
amount than rsn he rated for by In

Ones More, the Toenailed tetter.
Here Is a new story about the man
who forgot to mall Tils wife's letter,
says the New Orleans Times-Demo
crat. The hero is a newspaper man
and is connected with one of the New
Orleans dallies: Borne: hlng over two
yean ago, on a cold winter's day, his
wife gave him a letter to mall, and ho
illppnd it Into his overcoat pocket. It
was addressed to a friend In Los An
geles. Two weeks ago, during a chilly
snap, be put on the overcoat, and In
the lining felt the long-lost mlsslv.
Conscience stricken, and without no
ticing the date or remembering when
the letter had been given him, he
rushed off and posted It, It was when
the reply cams from the friend in Los
Angelca that the secret was out. The
friend thought that the writer must
have gone crazy. "I was g!ad to get
your letur," the frlBud replied, "but
what on earth la the matter with you?
You wrote of thing that happened two
years ago, and about nothing else."

The Original Declaration ef Indapandanee
The original Declaration of Inde

tion that nowaday it Is rarely If ever
exposed to public view. Tha Ladles'
Home Journal was recently granted
special permission by the secretary of
state to make a single exposure of the
document to the camera, and will re
produce tha photograph, which Is a re
markably clear one, In tho July Issue of
that magazine. Exposure to light and
the process of making a duplicate copy
of the declaration have faded tha Ink
In the historic document, but It Is still
legible. Soma of the signatures are
nearly faded out. John Hancock, how.
ever, seems to have used on imperisha

kept In a steel aafs, out of tha sun

Dear Madam I will say in regard to tha machine that we have, that It la
complete In every reepect; it bt all It I claimed to bo; it is nicely finished; the wood
work isouk. 1 do not think it necessary to answer all the questions you have
asked, for we think it a grand machine for the money $10.50 Irelubt paid. No
extra charges in any wuy. 1 think if you purchase one of these machine you will
surely be pleased with it. Respectfully yours,

Miss Etta HArruii, Lincoln, Neb.:
Dear Madam Your letter of March 1 received; and in reply will say, that we
have had the machine only a few weeks. Did very little sewing with it. Rut I find
It h very liRt't running and ueat appearing machine. The only machine I com
pared it with was the Singer, "latest Improved." The wood-work is as nicely
finished as that of the Hiuger, the same kind of wood. 1 have the light color. It
mochauism. In general, I as simple, and in some respects more so than that of tba
Hinder. Perhaps the only possible advantage Is that the Singer has tha drop
head and the "Independent" bits not. "Independent" has a hlh arm the same aa
ihe Slimer, aud a full set of attachment, except etching and Keusintom em
broidery altocbment, which is 7oo extra. There is no additional expense on re
ceipt of Ihe machine. They send a certificate of warranty good for ten years.
Yes, I think It Is all that they claim it lo be. Aud I am of the opinion that
the "Indejiendent," with proMrcare, which all machines should have, will last aa
long and do as irood work aa tbe machine which 1 Just compared it with, which
would cost me 155 cash In Aurora, Neb. Yours respectlully,
