Sir Robert then considered another
point of view from which these facta
ahoold be studied in the following pas

think, to consider naval preponderance
Indispensable to the safety of the em

f . , . . . . j our continental neighbors and especial
ly Germany are In the same boat. In
the event of war. If they could not
make up the loss by traffic over their
land frontiers, they would be Just as
liable to suffer from blockade and In
terrupted commerce aa we are. It Is
conceivable, moreover, that In certain
wars some of the countries might not
be able to make up by trade over their
land frontiers for blockade or Interrup
tion of commerce by Be a. I should ap
prehend, for Instance, that Germany, if
It were victorious by sea In a war with
France, would Insist upon Belgium and
Holland on one side and Italy and
Ppato on the other side not supplying
by land to France what had been cut
off by sea. One or more of these coun
ties might be allies of Germany from
the first.
"Contrariwise France and Russia, If
at war with Germany and the triple al
liance, might practically seal up Ger
many If they were successful at sea. In
sisting thst the Scandinavian countries
and Holland should aot make up to
Germany by land what had been cut
off by sea. Germany In this view,
apart from any possibility of rupture
with this country, has a case for a
powerful fleet. It Is not quite so much
liable to a blockade as we are, but
there Is a liability of the same kind.
The question of naval preponderance
among rival powers may then become
rather a serious one. If preponderance
Is to be nearly as esser tlal to Germany
as It Is to this country, who la to pre
ponderate? What our practical action
ought to be In the premises is a ques
tion that might easily lead us too far
on occasion like this, but the facts
should be ever present to the minds of

la Collaboration With John amy,
Ifow Secretary of State, He Wrote
ta "Life of Abraham Lincoln."
Accompanied (he President on Rim
Memorable Journey to Washing-ton.
The late John G. Nlcolay, private sec
retary to President Lincoln and an in
timate personal friend of the great
emancipator, was a resident of Wash
ington since 1S72, much of his time
having been given to writing. In col
laboration with John nay, now secre
tary of state, he wrote the "Life of
Abraham Lincoln."
John George Nlcolay was born in the
village of Essingen, In Rhenish Bava
ria, Germany, Feb. 26, 1832, the son of
Jacob and Helena Nlcolay. In 1838 the
Nlcolay family emigrated to America,
making their home first in Cincinnati,
O. From there they moved successive
ly to Indiana, Missouri and Illinois.
During this moving young Nlcolay re
ceived elementary instruction in the
schools of Cincinnati and St. Louis.
His school days In these two cities cov
ered a period of about two years, but
during that time the lad obtained tui
tion In German and English, as the
two languages were taught together.
By the death of his parents when: he
was about 14 years old young Nlcolay
was thrown entirely on his own re
sources, and he became a clerk In a
small retail store.
This occupation did not suit him.
however, and when he was sixteen he
Btarted to learn the trade of a printer
In the office of The Free Press, a county
paper published weekly at Pittsfleld,
Pike county. 111. He remained with
The Free Press for about eight years,
and while connected with this country
sheet he laid the foundation for his fu
ture literary career.
Mr. Nlcolay acquired a reputation as
an editor which lasts even to the pres
ent day in Pike County. He was a
forceful writer and soon became a po
litical power In his part of the state.
He received flattering offers from the
newspapers of Chicago and St. Louis,
but preferred to continue in his Inde
pendent capacity as the editor of his
own paper. During tne famous cam
paign between Lincoln and Douglas
Mr. Nlcolay took sides with Lincoln
and laid the foundation for his close
friendship with the great emancipator,
which lasted until the tragic death of
Lincoln.
At the close of the Fremont and Day
ton campaign In 1856 Mr. Nicolay sold
his paper and became a clerk In the of
flee of the secretary of state at, Spring
field, 111. He remained In this position
until 1860, and during this time his
friendship with Lincoln ripened into
the closest intimacy. When Lincoln
was nominated for the presidency, he
appointed Nlcolay his private secreta
ry. After the election the correspond
ence of Mr. Lincoln increased so much
that an assistant became necessary
and Mr. Nicolay chose for this position
John Hay, the present secretary of
state, who was then a young law stu
dent In Springfield.
When Lincoln made his memorable
Journey to Washington In the spring of
1861, both Mr. Nicolay and Mr. Hay ac
companied him. During the first pres
Idential term they occupied the same
room at the White House together, per
forming the laborious and often dell
cate duties which fell to them and en
Joying the closest confidence of Presi
dent Lincoln. During this time they
formed the plan, with the approval of
Mr. Lincoln, of writing his biography,
which design they carried out later In
collaboration.
After the beginning of his second
term, and shortly before his assassina
tion, the president appointed Mr. Nlco
lay United States consul at Paris and
appointed Mr. Hay secretary of the
American legation in the, same city.
They had not, however, entered upon
their new duties before Mr. Lincoln's
death occurred. Mr. Nicolay held the
office of consul at Paris until the spring
of 1869.
Mr. Nlcolay and Mr. Hay began the
active work of writing their biography
of Lincoln in 1874, although they had
spent the previous six years In gather
ing and arranging their material. Its
serial publication under the title
"Abraham Lincoln, a History, was
begun In The Century Magazine In No
vember, 1SSG, and continued until Feb
ruary, iyo. in the latter year the
complete work, with many important
chapters not included in the serial pub
lication, was Issued in ten volumes and
achieved a permanent place in Ameri
can historical literature. Of the Joint
work each author is said to have writ
ten about half, and concurrently also
they collected, catalogued and - edited
" AKeoVfiM T In -wl r'o sm-rl frr a
which were published In 1894.
In addition, to this great task Mr.
Nicolay wrote in 18S1 "The Outbreak
of the Rebellion," It being the first vol
ume of a series entitled "Campaigns of
the Civil War." Mr. Nicolay also wrote
the article on President Lincoln In the
Encyclopaedia Britannlca and has con
tributed numerous articles to Amerl
can magazines. . ,
All of Mr. Nleolay's accomplishments
and tastes were of a high order. He
had patented many inventions, was a
lover of art and music, an accomplish
ed linguist and a poet of unusual merit.
Of the many achlevemeats of his life
he, however, derived the greatest sat
isfaction from having earned Mr. Lin
coln's friendship and trust, as well as
of having, In collaboration with. Mr.
Hay, carried out the design of writing
the biography of the great president.
WORLD'S Fl R8T J EWELRV.
Diseoverr . of Valuable JeweU by
Professor Fllader-,Petrle.
In Harper's for October Professor
Flinders-Petri e, the famous archaeolo
gist, tells In an Interesting way of the
recent discovery of valuable Jewels in
the newly opened royal tombs of Aby
doa. Professor Petrie himself conduct
ed these lnvestlgatloas. T ,
"The most surprising discovery of
all," he says, "was that of the gold
Jewelry of the reign of King Zer. While
we were clearing out this royal tomb
workman noticed a piece of the arm of
a mummy lying in a broken hole in the
wall. . He did not pass It by as worth
less, but looked in at one end and saw
a lump of gold. Now, ordinary human
nature, and still more Arab nature,
puts In a finger and hooks out a lump of
gold when It can. But our workmen
are far too well trained to do that, and
so the arm was laid down again till we
could see It. After reporting It the
piece was brought Intact to our huts,
and that evening an hour, or two was
spent in opening It up carefully and re
cording how everything 9 was placed,
lastly weighing the gold and giving the
finder more than its Intrinsic value.
Thus, we safely recovered the oldest
group of Jewelry known In the world.
the four bracelets of the queen of King
Zer, about 4700 B. C, some 2.000 years
earlier than any other Jewelry thus faf
Identified. -
"The first bracelet Is formed of alter
nate plaques of gold and turquoise,
each surmounted with the royal hawk
and paneled to imitate the front of the
tomb or palace. This bracelet has a
history in itself. The turquoise plaques
bear a much more archaic and lumpy
form of hawk than the gold pieces, and
they show signs of having been worn
alternately with large beads; From the
style, like that of Mena, they were
made probably at the accession of King
Zer. Later the hawks In gold were
made in the more advanced style to
form a bracelet with the turquoise. All
the pieces were numbered, with lines
on the. bases sloping for one half,
straight for the other half, of the
bracelet Four turquoise and five gold
pieces were lost, and so the eighteen of
each were reduced to the present num
bers. "
!The next bracelet is curiously built
up. Tne centerpiece or gold appears to
be copied from the 6eed vesser of a
desert plant. On either side are beads
of turquoise and gold and lastly a large
amethyst ball of deep color. The back
half Is of the same material. The two
sides are braids of gold wire and thick
hair plaited together."

Just now the cut of men's clothes so

Is very easy to learn and makes a dis
tinguished and graceful salute.
It is also the very latest, and so If you
wear your ciotnes cut in tne latest
fashion you of course must not neglect
learning it. In making this salute you
must bear in mind that you are to sa
lute with the hand that is opposite to
the person you wish to greet. Thus, If
he is to pass you on your left you use
the right hand, and If he passes you on
your right you must employ the left
hand.
The salute, according to the Chicago
Record-Herald, consists of these three
simple movements: First, when the per
son is about seven paces away you
throw "either the right or the left arm.

is perpendicular to the body and the
forearm Is obliquely across the body, so
that the fingers touch the rim of your
hat near the front and center of the

nearest the face, and the fingers are
close together and slightly bent, with
the thumb hidden by being In front of
the first finger and nearest the face.
Second, you Incline slightly, and re
move your hand about four Inches In
front of your face. Third, when the
person has passed you, you straighten
up and throw your arm smartly at the
side. You may then continue your walk
possessed of the gratified feeling of
having been strictly "in the mode" and
