An Old Story Untold ,
Who1 : General Charles II. Van Wycic
of Nebraska was running for congress ,
many years ago , in the Fifteenth Now
York district , there was a certain Irish
man who steadfastly refused to give the
old soldier any encouragement. The
colonel was greatly surprise : ! , there
fore , when Pat informed him , on elec
tion dav , t'utu ho had concluded to sup
port him. "Glad to hear it , glad to
hoar it , ' ' said the colonel ; "I rather
thought you wore against mo , Patrick. "
"Well , sir , " said Patrick , "I wuz- , and
whin yo stud by mo pig pen and talked
that day fur two hours or worse , yo
didn't budge mo a hair's broauth , sir ;
but after yo wuz gone I got to thinking
how yo reached yor hand over the fence
and scratched the pig on the back till
ho laid down wid the pleasure of it , and
I made up my mind that whin a ralo
colonel was as sociable as that I wasn't
the man to vote agin him. "
The Itcason Wtiy.
Youth's Companion : A report of a
French duel has the following interest
ing conclusion :
"M. ' Lolaoho having fired his shot , Jit
was now the turn of M. Bobocho to dis
charge his weapon. He waited calmly
for a moment , brought up his pistol ,
awaited the word and fired In the air.
"This Is not , however , so great jin act
of magnanimity ns might bo supposed ,
for his antagonist had ellmbod n tree ! "

MONSTER SHIPS OF WAE.
A HrltUli Vessel of Knormoin Weight
SteaniH Klghteen Knots.
The Royal Sovereign , the largest war
ship in the world , lias just made her
trial trip with the ollicors of the British
admiralty on board. Her displacement
is 14,350 tons , and her speed , which wr.s
kept up for three hours , was 18.1 knots
per hour. The largest and fastest ves
sels of the French navy , the Admiral
Buudin and the Formidable , are 3,000
tons loss and their speed is three knots
loss. Our battleships the Indiana , the
Massachusetts and the Oregon aro4.0UO
tons lobs and their estimated speed is
three knots less. Italy t ' "l9 flvo
ships afloat whoso displacement is
nearly as largo ns that of
the Royal Sovereign and whoso
speed is supposed to bo the same. The
Commercial Gazette says this extraor
dinary naval development is the ohlof
cause of the impoverishment of Italy
and of the crushing weight of taxation
In that kingdom. Neither Russia nor
Germany nor Austriit nor Spain has any
ships that will compare In size or
ollcctivoness with the Royal Sovereign.
The latter compares curiously with
other warships and the loading mer
cantile steamers of the maritime na
tions. The crack ship of the British
navy , the Inflexible , is nearly 3,000 tons
loss in displacement than the Royal
Sovereign. She Is 320 foot in length
and seventy-live feet bourn , as against
380 foot in length and seventy-
five foot bourn in the Royal
Sovereign. The great Italian-
ships are 400 foot long by seventy-four
feet beam. But when wo turn to the
craolt merchant steamers of the day wo
find that the City of Now York nnd the
City of Paris , which have just passed
under the American flag , are 500 feet
long by slxly-throo foot beam. They
are 200 or 250 feet longer than the typos
of English and French batteshlps before
the Royal Soyurclgn and twelve feet
narrower. In them the proportion of
beam to lengtm Is 8.60 , while in the
b.ittlcshlps It Is i toss than 0 , or about
the proportion wbleh was usual in the
ships built in tha forties.
If the Royal j Sovereign , with her
depth , hud boon as narrow as the City
of Paris , there wro few ports which she
could have onioned. Her armament re
flects the progress of naval gunnery.
The Italian IlnUo , Duilio and Dan-
dele , which wore built between
1870 and 18811 carry 100-ton gunc ;
the British -Ilnjloxlblo carries 80-
tou guns ; tile French Admiral
Buudin and tho'lAmnldublo carry 76-ton
guns , but the R yal Sovereign only car
ries 07-ton gun * , and our throe battle
ships carry 45-ton guns. The reason of
the reduction In the size of the guns is ,
first , the difficulty of handling enormous
masses of metal with ofllpiont rapidity ,
and secondly , the apprehension that no
vqsKol can bo built so as to endure the
concussion of the jlro of very heavy guns
without her plates splitting and part-
Ing. The best opinion now Is that guns
not exceeding forty-five tons In weight
would bo more olleotlvo In action than
guns exceeding that weight. There IH
very little doubt that the Italia und
Duilio would wrench themselves apart in
action long before they had destroyed
their enomy. The projoctllo thrown by
the Royal Sovereign will weigh 1,200
pounds and that thrown from our Massa
chusetts 1,000 pounds. Such million
will ao quito ns much damugo if they
strike an object UB u missile weighing a
ton or nearly u ton.

Sidney Dillon in Scribner : The two

the crowd gathered 'tound the open
space. Then -all fell back a little so
that the view should bo unobstructed.
Brief remarks were made by Governor

with a silver pluto In the center bearing
the following Inscription : "Tho last
tie laid on the completion of the Pacific
railroad , May 10 , 1809 , " with the names
of the ollicors and directors of both com
panies.
Everything being then In readiness ,
the word was given , and "HatsolT" wont
clicking over the wires to the waiting
crowds at New York , Philadelphia , San
Francisco , and all the principal cities.
Prayer was ollorod by the venerable
Rev. Dr. Todd , at the conclusion of
which our operator tapped out : "Wo
have got done praying. The spike is
about to bo presented , " to which the
response came back : "Wo understand.
All are ready in the oast. " The gentle
men who had boon commissioned to pro-
soul the four spikes , two of gold und two
of silver , from Montana Idaho , Cali
fornia and Nevada , stopped forward , and
wij.li . brief , appropriate remarks dis
charged the duty assigned them.
Governor Stanford , standing on the
north , and Dr. Durant on the south sido'
of the track , received the spikes nnd put
thorn in pluco. Our operator tapped out :
"All ready now ; the spiKe will soon bo
driven. The signal will bo three dots
for the commencement of the blows. "
An Instant later the silver hammers
came down , and at each stroke in all the

nnd throughout the land , the haiumor
of the magnet struck the boll.
The event was celebrated in all the

with demonstrations of delight.

Black-wood's Magazine : There rises
a huge wall seventy' foot high , inclosing
a square court of which the side is 740
foot long. Part of the wall , having
fallen into ruins , has boon rebuilt from
the ancient materials ; but the whole of
the north side , with its beautiful pilas
ter ? , remains perfect. As the visitors
enter the court they stand still in as
tonishment at the extraordinary sight
which moots tholr eyes ; for .hero ,
crowded within those four high walls , is
the natlvo village of Tadmor. It was
natural enough for Arabs to build their
mud huts within those raudy-mado forti
fications , but the Impression produced
by such u village In uucli u place is in
describably strange.
The temple , so to apeak , is oiiton out
at the core , and little but tlio shell re
mains. But bore and there u fluted
Corinthian column or group of columns ,
with entablature still perfect , rises in
stately grace far over tlio wretched huts ,
the rich , oroutny color of the | tmostono
and the beautiful moldings of the capi
tals contrasting with the clour blue of
the cloudless sky. The best view of the
whole Is to bo obtanod from the roof of
the nuos , which , once beautiful and
adorned with sculpture , is now all bat
tered nnd defaced and haa boon motu-
morphosod Into a squalid little inoaquo.
To describe the view from that roof
were indeed u hopeless tusk.

A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Press makes the curious calculation
that of the governors elected slnco
iVpnomattox no loss than 227 were old
oldlors. A largo majority of the mem
bers of the prcbcnt congress served In
Lllo army on both slues. Of those
veterans from the north and south ton
ivoro major generals and twelve were
brigadier generals , and Hold officers uro
numbered by the dcoro. The history of
these men IB the history of Uio war.

I was the other day told a story about
1 a member of tho'prosont congress whom
I will call Jiimos Smith , t > y ono of hit
colleagues whom , aUo , 1 cannot identify , V
says the correspondent. They are from
one of the border states and live near
the lino.
"Enlistments , " Buys the member ,
"woro sttcrotly going on In tholr neighJl
borhood for both urmloa. Jim was nil fll
orator , rather than a soldier. Ho never *
tired of addressing public meeting ! ) . -
But ho was cxeltablo nnd apt to bo with
the crowd at the moment. Ono day ho
yelled for the old flap and the undi
vided union , and the next day ho helped
hang John Brown and Abraham Lincoln
In olllgy.
"Ono morning when Jim was In town
ho was called on to hurunguo u hundred
or two moil who were assembled in
front of the corner grocery listening to
the latest news. Ho olfmbod Into a
wagon , throw oft his cent and sailed In.
"I have but one message tor you , " ho
shouted , 'go to the front ! Many of your
neighbors uro on the line of battle anil
all calling unto youl Why stand yo
hero Idler1 Freedom , which shrieked
when Kosclusko fell , Is In peril us never v
before. Fly to her rescue ! Men may 1
cry peace , peace , but there is no poacol i
Freedom's buttle , when once begun , bo-

" 'Wall , stronger , ' broke In about the
only man present who ditl'nt know him ,
'which urmy shell wo jlno'r1 Nuwth ur

"tiithor ! olthor ! ' shouted Jim. 'Can't
all think alike. "
"It inndo some fun at the tlmo , " euld
Mr. M. C. , who was In the cotifodorn'to
army uftorwurd , "but I'll bo hanged if 1
wasn't talking to Jim about it the other * " "
day , nnd he insists that ho was just >
right ! "
At least two of the present senators
who were major generals enlisted In the
army as private soldiers Gibson of
Louisiana und lluwluy of Connecticut.
Those men , both fine looking , have a
curious resemblance and are poniotimoa
mistaken for ouch othor. Both , too , ua
their rapid promotion indicates , hud a
rpmantto story. Hawloy.au old aboli
tionist , was the llrst man to enlist iu his
stuto , und wii3 In theurmy nil the tlmo j
to Appomuttox. Gibson lost his fortunojf
during the war , but recovered it aftoi-J L '
wards. * * *
The testimony of people who have
been shot dllTors widely us to how It
feels. I have hoard moro than u dozuu
mombcrs of the present congress tulkou
the subject and have got ns many opin
ions. The worst shot man now in publia
life is probably General Oates , who ro
bonted the insolence of the misroproson-
ttillvo of the "Federation" the ether
day. Ho lot his right arm in front ol
Richmond In his twenty-seventh battle ,
having previously been shot through
the right arm , then in the right log ,
then in tlio loft him , then through tha
right thigh , then in the head , as pro-
uionltory symptoms of what was coming.
"When a ininia ball strikes you , " ha
said , "itstuu ? you us If you hud been hit
at short range with a club or brickbat.
Then the duvolibh intruder gradually
becomes hotter and hotter , as if you hud
turned into u furnace of live coals. Thou
perhaps you mercifully drop into uncon-
sciousnoss. " "It felt when I was hit , "
said Colonel Herbert of Alubamu , spculc-
ing of the matter to u comrade , "as if
my shoulder was soared with caustic ; in
fact , 1 never could got over the Impres
sion that the Yanks ware firing rod hot
mills. "
Ho experimented with four of them
during his service , und has reason to
know just how they feel.
The two ono-leggod mon in congress
who manage themselves host In walking
uro , by general consent , Senator Daniel
of Virginia , and Representative David
B. Henderson of lown. They were both
very young mou when they mot with
the loss of a log , und us Amos Cunning
ham says , "thoy probably hadn't got
attached to it. " A stranger would
scarcely suspect olthor men of using u
wooden mombor.
"When I was hit in the head , " saya
Colonel Henderson , i'it didn't ' hurt
much , for I became unconscious : but
when my foot intercepted the spiral
flight of the rillo bullet , it seemed ay if
[ hud experienced tin equal collision with
.lupitcr . , or , ut least , one of the wildest
nnd most dissolute comets. I never was
30 astonished in my life. Then cumo
collapse. "
Joe Cannon , "tho next member from
the Fifteenth district of Illinois , " as ha
would probably sign his mime today it
ho were loss modest , tells u good story , ' '
of Henderson :
" 1 had seen Dave Henderson around
on crutches , and I wus sorry for him ,
and urged him to como und BOO us diuico
nt one of our little utl'uirs ut the National.
Well , do you know , ho cumo. Without
u crutchV Yes. And he cumo tripping
in ( I bowing in us If ho hud never hud
3von a corn , nnd ho waltzed his cork leg ;
with a patent leather boot on It up to
ono of my favorite partners , and bore
her oil in the gldd labyrinths of the
gormun , juut us if ho hud half a do/.en
logs. Yes , air. us lively us If he waa K
eontipudo. "
And those who saw It say that the
prize wait/or of Danville leaned against
the pluno purulyzed , jupurscdod ui hello
of the Dull by the more or loss disjointed
but very vlvuclous D.ivld.
"How much It hurts to bo shot , " said
Senator Mundcrson , who got soverul
mementoes of that sort during the war , jr
und likes to exchange views with vat * V
uruns , "depends on where und how you
uro hit. If it iu In an extremity , or in
Lhick llosh , the wound is not generally
very painful ut once , und men have often
bjon so struck , und even maimed , wlth-
jut knowing it. But got hit along that
dial center , tlio spine , and you fuel au
if a red-hot tipeur u mile lung hud been
Ihrust through you , "
I asked Colonel Stone , the Kentucky
joldior , who is generally soon on
crutches. "I didn't know , at Ural , that
I wus wounded , " he suid. " 1 just felt u
slight twitch ut my trouuur loir us if a.
brier hud caught It or u playful kitten
had touched It with her claw , but pretty
ioon I fell in the gratia and luy there till
lay and all night while Morgun aim tha
rest of the boys marched away into
Ohio. "
