It is not the editors of daily newspapers alone who have made costly arratigemnents , in hot haste , by cable and telegraph , for representation by writers and artists at nil possible pointh of conflIct in the war , Latterly the newspapers , wIth their special Saturday and Sunday "features , " have seemed to be trampIng rather ruthlessly into the immemorial province of the editors of magazines anti the publishers of books ; but In the matter of the war , the latter arc rather "calling the turn" on the newspaper editors. There is scarcely a well known corre spondent or artist at. the front who is not , Iii a way , representing either a magazine or a publishing house as well as a news paper , and already monthly magazines have iniblished articles descriptive of the current movements and engagements , and publishers have begun to announce books on varIous phases of ( ho war. I know of one instance In which all of the arrangements for text and pictures for a considerable book \vero made by cable to hong Kong , at a rate of perhaps $1.60 a word. It was for a book on the campaign against the Philippines , and the value of concludIng a contract at. the earliest moment possible , eveit at unusual cost , lay in the' fztct. that the man who is to write It is ( lie only correspondent. anti ( ho man who is to Illustrate it is the only artist on board Admiral Dewey's fleet. Never before has there been a war in which iiictures have cut 8o important a figure as they will in this , To meet the sL'uidards anti requirements of the times , war books , no less than war dispatches , mallet be Illustrated ; and they must be illus. tiated ( roiti life. It Is their sense of this faCt especially that has put publishers on their metal , and set them running a race with each oilier equal in pace of the race of the newspaper editors.

Mrs. Custer iii xpectcd ltonie tills month trout a sojourn she line bremi nmahing in Egypt. Among her friends ( ho fact that hie has gotten to Egypt has a special sigitti- canco. Since the tragic death of her hue- band , General Custer , now t'enty-two years ago. threw her upon her own resources , she line been , with her wrIting and her hector- lag , a remarkably hard-working woman. Her industry has been fairly iweil rewarded , She has been able to maintain here in New York a comfortable anti attractive home , which has been an assembling voint for literary - orary and artistic people ; anti now and then she has secured holiday enough to en able her to pay a. brief.visit to Europe. But through alt the years she has beemi too busy to accomplish the one journey on which she professed 1to have particularly set her heart-a journey to Egypt. "Next year I think I can manage it , " she would say ; and she continued to say so yeartby year , uotil finally , half.eympathetlcally , half-scoutingly , her friends grew to dating to and from the time when Mrs. Custer should go 4o Egypt. So to them , scarcely less than to Mrs. Cus. ter herself , the final accomplishment of this long-dreamed of expedition is an evenL From keeping her home in an apartment in the heart. of the city , Mrs. Cuater changed , a year or two ago. to the suburb of Lawrence Park , This is a pretty viliage , some fifteen miles north of the city , where all the residents own their houses , and a few special restrictions prevail to keep up thin tone iund desirability of the place. Among her fellow.townsmen here arc Mr. \VIil It. Low , the artist , and Mr. Edmund Clarence Stednman , the poet. But her present - ent return home is not to he for long ; she is going to EnglandI understand , to spend the summer. The impression prevails that for authors , anti especially for American authors , royalties - ties on books are mainly a dream anti an aspiration. If an author gets his book published - lished without cost to himself the current. belief is that he has done all that he could reasonably expect to do. And this is a quito just belief , so far as unestablished authors are concerned. lInt. the royalties account has growmi to be a very important item in the publishing business anti pub- ushers are forced , In planning their ventures and shaping their affairs , to give it much consideration. Take Eugene Field's books for an example ; most people vould say , probably , that , while those books might have made a fair profit ( em the puhilialiers , they could not have yielded much to Mr. Field , or , since his death. to lila repro. sentatives. Yet I understand that the royalty must by now have rounded out into quite a bandsorno sum. In quite a short. period , I am told. the now edition of Henry George's works , of which as yet only three or tour volumes nrc issued , has yielded imis family $2,000 in royalties. There are a number of authors whose books , taken year by year. are as good as the proverbial wheat in the mill. 1Iot-uii's Himniiinifitriaiiisiii.

What is being done 1by the naval powers of the world towarti increasing their forces on the sea is preseiited in detail in the current - rent aumitber of Naval l'rogress , a publica- ( ion isstieti by time Ofllce of Naval Inteilt- gcnce. It shows that Great Britain is build- lug or about. to builti lOS ships , upon which Site will expemiul $107,000,000 , mid will increase - crease her personnel liy 6,300 oiflccrs anti mcmi this year. Russia's progrant of naval expansion calls for en expenliture of $318- 000,000. France is atidumig to her fleet at. an expense of $141,300,000. Germany has a progrant looking to ( lie cxiienditure of $210- 000,000 , and Japan's program requires the expenditure of $102,390OCO. Consideritig her resources , Japait is ionic- ing a more rapid increase in ships nail macmm than any other poiver. France is construct- lag more torpedo boats tlinii any of the eon- tiitentmtl governments , while Great Britaiit continues to outstrip the world in the nurn- her , power , autti cost. of vessels of all types and classes. The totiil , streagtm of the lIng- lieu navy is shown t'obe 100,050 officers anti ittbmm. Britiaim improvements in dochcynrds at home end abroad have been marked by great energy. England is now buikling three irnntemmse docks at Gibraltar , and is niaking extensive iniprovemuente at her naval stations at hong Kong , Malta and Berinutla. Ittissia's pIous include the opening of anew now naval base on the coast of Laphand , at a point between the \Vhite sea anti the Nor- \vegian coast , anti connected by rail with St. Petersburg. mm t Iii's I'rogriiiii. Great Britain's shiipbuiitiing program for this year has been increased by a supple- mnentary vote of $2,435,000 for new construe- tion in addition to the regular budget. This money is to be spent lit beginning time con- structoa ! of one battleship , four armored cruisers , and four torpedo-boat destroyers , bringing the new constructiott to be heguii tluring the present. year up to four battle. 51111)5 , three of which riil be of 14,900 tons miii one of 12,1150 tons ; four arnmoreti cruisers of 11,850 tons each , three third-class cruisers of 2,135 totis each ; six gunboats , ( our of ' 100 tons and two of 060 tons each ; eight hiht draught river gunboats ; . , ix torpedo-boat tie- stroycrs anti one royal yacht. Beitig built or to be ordered ts'ithmtn time next two months are 108 vessels of all classes , of which fourteen - teen are battleships , eight , first-class cruls- cr5 , imino second.class cruisers , fifty-two tar- pcdo boat. . destroyers , and time remainder snmall cruisers and gunboats. The three large battleships to be laid tiown this year wilt be of the Majestic type and trili be built at. government dockyards. Their displace- mont will he the same as the Majestic's , but their mean draught will be less by nine inchmes. An additional ten feet in length wihi bring them up to 400 feet anti competisato for the decreaseti draught apti also tetal toward greater pced , ( or It. is ItiTended that the new vessels shall make eighteen ktmots under natural tiratigltt. Tim four armored cruisers wilt be among the most powerful vessels of this typo in tIme world , anti all are to be built in private shipyards. They vihi have a length of 440 feet , beam of 69 feet , anti a mean draught of 20 feet , and will be armed with two 9,2-Inch guns , twelve 6-inch , fourteen twelve-pounders , anti three thiree-pountlers. Their lmottonts will be sheathed mid copperetl for cruising pur- poses. Not less thou twenty-one knots an hour will be the speed requIrement. The other cruisers still be of about the mine type as the DetroIt anti the gunboats a little larger than the Ilancroft. The naval program in France is more extensive titan that of any other continental Imower , ( lie budget of thin year approprIating $55,108,000 , or a large increase over that. of the previous year. Fratice's iuildlng pro- grain extends over a period of eight years , and will aggregate in 1005 about $144,300,000 , making an annual expeatlituro for Increasing - ing the strength of ( lie fleet. of $18,000,000 , France , like Russia , Is hooking to the future regarding tier naval atrengtlt , amid Is ntaking provision for war.

'fhts result. has been to give French battleships and cruisers the look of dangerous and ugly customers when placed by the side o British - ish or Amoricami abuts of the itanie class or even a more iioweruI class. The Jeanne d'Arc , urniorctl cruiser , now buiitiing in Toulon , will be ready In 1900. She will be the most. powerful cruiser In the French navy , and , though intended itt first to ho an enlarged d'ilntrecasteaux , of which ( lie Idea was taken from our Columbia , baa been modified so niuchi during construction that she forms a typo of her own , unlike any. thing tmot only in thin Frencii fleet , but. also in the British or American navy , The Jeanne d'Arc Is a steel cruiser 469 feet 2 inches long and 63 feet 8 inches broad and wIll have a draught of 26 feet 7 inches ; she will displace 11,270 tons. in also she calm be compared with th Itussian Rossla , which Is somewhat larger , n4 with the four vessels of the pt'otecteti flrltlsh Aboukir lnss , &ho will have three screws and be propelled by three sets of triple-expansIon cngiaes of 28,000 horse power , being Intemmd'l to make 23 knots an hour , a shaile better than our Columbia , which is a much smaller vessel She wIll h.ve six smokestacks , arranged iii two sets of ( brett at either vial , the engInes being amidships - ships , anti wIll carry two entaIl nmihiiary masts. lien armor consists of a protectIve belt varying front clx to three Inches In thickness ; she has two protective ilecks with plating of 2.2 Inches auth with cellulose be- tteecn. 11cr coal bunkers will' hiolti 1,400 ( emma , which wIll give her a reditie of action of 9,000 knots at 10 knots , but she can stow away 700 tons more , which would increase lien radius to 13,500 knot The plans ten her amnunneimt have been changed repeatedly , The latest project is to arm lien with tn's 7-inch guns In ar- mnored eupolna on deck , with foqrteen & % i.- Inch guns anti twenty-sia smaller quIckflr- lag guns , and two torpedo tubes.
