It Is now the fashion for Americans
going abroad to register -a cable ad
dress. The registration books of the
companies have, grown so enormous
that- two or three years ago extra
hands were set to work revising them,
with the result that tens of thousands
of names which had fallen into in
nocuous desuetude, so . to speak, were
•weeded out. No two cable addresses
exactly alike are allowed In any one
city. This is* to avoid errors in de
livery. Every cable address containing
more than ten letters is rejected. With
several hundred thousand registrations
it is easy to see that no little ingenuity
is required to frame up new addresses.
Much- twisting and turning must be
done to hit upon satisfactory and ap
propriate words within the prescribed
limit.' Experts at this business, more
over,: have, to take into consideration
the danger of errors likely to arise
from the similarity of telegraphic
sounds.— New York Times.

Well, in every battleship, cruiser and
torpedo-boat there are tubes, like so
many large gun barrels, built into the
ship, some above, but mostly below the
water, and from these tubes the tor
pedoes are discharged at the enemy's
ship. A small charge of cordite or
compressed air, at a pressure of 500
pounds or more to the square inch,
shoots the torpedo out of the tube
along a guiding bar, which directs it
until well clear of the ship. When it
leaves the guiding bar the propellers
get to work and the projectile is off,
straight as a. bullet, to the target at
which it has been aimed.
The original Whitehead torpedo had
a speed of 'eight knots an hour and an
outside range of a quarter of a mile;
the torpedo of to-day— and I am de
scribing the very weapon the Japanese
are using with such deadly effect— will
run as straight as, a dart for a mile
(thanks to the gyroscope) at a speed of
pretty well, forty miles an hour. It
can be aimed as accurately as a rifle,
and what is most wonderful is that it
can be adjusted from the conning tower
of a ship and discharged simply by
pressing an electric . key. , When the
torpedo strikes . a ship it does not, as
some folks think, blow her "sky high."
There is a heavy, quivering shock, > a
column of water is sent high above the
decks, there is a sickly smell of ex
plosives, and that is all that is seen or
felt; but below water the steel plating
of the ship Is rent and twisted like so
much paper, there is a gaping. hole
through which an omnibus might be
driven, arid in most cases no human
power can save the ship from going to
the bottom.— London. Answers.

'.'It's an ill wind that blows nobody
. any good." As far as Japan and Rus
sia- are away from Maine and the At
lantic coast, the war now going on
between them will affect that part of
the- country in no email degree, and
cause a scarcity of good steamers all
* along the coast. Calvin Austin of Bos
ton, the vice president and general
manager of the Eastern Steamship
Company, says: ; f:~~
"For some time past negotiations
have been under way between the
'Eastern Steamship Company and a Pa
cific concern for the purchase of the
"Fteamer St. Croix of the international
division of our service, but these have
not yet come to any conclusion. Now
the demands for boats on the Pacific
have become more urgent than ever
because of the war between Japan and
Russia.
"Every boat that can .possibly be
bought by these nations will be
snapped up for transports. No large
steamers will be left for freight and
passenger carrying on the Pacific, and
the heads of steamship . companies
there will then have to come to the
Atlantic to get steamers here. To sup
ply the demand for boats on the Pa
cific Coast the different companies on
this eide of the United States may be
called upon to supply the demand."

A farmer who drove into Iola, Kans.,
some time ago found all of the hitch

horse to an empty boxcar standing on
a sidetrack in an alley. A few minutes
later a switch engine coupled on to
the car and started up the alley. The
hltchstrap in this instance was a rope
and It was tied around the animal's
neck. The horse did fairly well until
he encountered a telephone pole. The
buggy was demolished there. The en

A special to the- New York Sun from
South Bend, Ind., says: Because of an
experiment of Dr. J. W. Hill, one of
the well-known physicians and sur
geons of Indiana, in trying to prevent
infants born of negro parents from
turning dark in color soon after birth,
the attention of the scientific world it
Is expected will be fixed on South Bend
during the next few months. All ar
rangements have been completed for
Dr. Hill's experiment on the color
scheme of the human race. •
An expectant mother has consented
to act as the patient and will enter the
hospital as soon as the rooms are fin
ished in the manner necessary for the
scientific event. According to Dr. Hill
the negro's skin is more positive than
that of any other human being, and i
for that reason more pigment is thrown i
out to protect him under the climatic \
conditions in which his forefathers
were born, the intense heat of the trop
ics making this necessary.
By preventing pigmentation Dr. Hill
believes the child of negro parents,
which is generally born white, turning
dark under the sun's rays, will become'
even whiter than that of the Cauca-
Indiania Physician Will Try to Pre
vent Them From Turning

The rapid growth of cotton manufac
turing in the South has become a
source of frequent comment, conclud
ing mostly with the remark that while
we are doing much and doing well in
this particular we should do more and
do better. In other words, intelligent
observers of the So'uth's progress ln
the turning of the staple into mer
chantable fabrics are struck with the
fact that, as yet, but few attempts
have been made to produce cotton
goods of the finer grades by Southern
j romoters of cotton manufacturing
plants.
Two-thirds of the South's crop of
cotton finds its way abroad, absorbed
as it is by nations that have learned
to convert a pound of raw material
¦worth 10 cents into a pound of finish
ed goods worth fifteen .times that
¦amount and over. France, for in-
Ftance, makes high-priced lace out of I
the product of our cotton field, while
¦Re are confining ourselves to the pro
duction of cheap, coarse fabrics. Other
rations have acquired the knack of
transforming it into expensive under
wear and hosiery for our consumption,
whereas we are lagging behind, appar
ently without ambition, to cover the
most profitable ground in the cotton
manufacturing field. ,
It may be objected that the South
Is not as yet prepared to compete in
the .manufacture of cotton goods of
the highest grade; that it must feel
It? way to the top of the ladder of
troduciion In this particular. Ad
mitting, for the sake of argument,
that there is something in this, there
is no good reason for not making a
. few steps into the domain of finer
manufacture as a beginning. No one
; will seriously contend that the South
is not ultimately destined to work up
the* bulk of its raw cotton. Why, then,
should there be further delay in the
promotion of industry in its higher
branches? — Houston Post.

LINERS ADDED
TO CZAR'S NAVY
NEW YORK, May 19. — An
nouncement was mude to-day of
the sale to the Russian Govern
ment by the Hamburg-Ameri
can Steamship Company of
three of its flnest steamships.
They are the Augusta Victoria,
the Columbia and the Puerst
Bismarck, the latter being a new
vessel.
It was reported. / several
months ago that the Russians
were negotiating for the pur
chase of a number of fast lin
ers, among them being the three
crack steamships of the Ham
burg-American line, the sale of
which is now de.nnltely an
nounced.
The vessels are large and
swift and will be valuable acqui
feltions to the sea forces of the
Czar when converted for use hi
the war with the Japanese. The
price at which the Hamburg-
American Company disposed of
the liners to the Russians was
not made public.
"It is the worst kind of war," says
the expert, "since it is cloaked by
hypocritical neutrality. Russia is now
warring in a hostile country.
St. Petersburg had a holiday to-day
in honor of the birthday of Emperor
Nicholas. The city was ablaze, with
color, the principal streets were "gayly
decorated, the street cars, displaying
flags, moved slowly on the Neysky and
other thoroughfares, the ships moored
in the sparkling Neva were dressed
and the churches were thronged during
the morning, with officials and other
persons offering prayers for the Em
peror and the success of the Russian
arms in the Far East. At noon the
fortress on the banks of the Neva fired
an imperial salute of 121 guns.
Peasants, in holiday attire, were
grouped at the street corners, studying
General Kuropatkin's bulletins report-
Ing that the, Japanese were falling
back, but the news apparently did not
occasion satisfaction, because it was
known, even to the lowliest, that Kur
opatkln would not strike, and that some
time must elapse before Russia could
make her might felt. Therefore, no
impatience was displayed at the failure
of the Russian commander in chief to
follow up his advantage. There was
only muttered approval of the policy
of waiting until the reinforcements, to
which the Emperor was bidding fare
well, reached Manchuria.
The military expert of the Novoe
Vremya expressed this morning an
opinion, which is slowly crystalizing
here, that the attitude of the Chinese
authorities and the activity of Chinese
bandits are tantamount to a state of
war.
with representatives' of the great
powers, laid particular emphasis- upon
the attitude of the Chinese. He re
ferred to the necessity for all the Gov
ernments continuing' the policy of con
stantly impressing Peking with the ad
visability of preserving strict neutral
ity. The Foreign Minister desires that
China shall not only be officially neu
tral, but that there shall be no Inter
ference on the part of her people, and
he believes the latter point can be as
sured if violations of the imperial
proclamations are swiftly punished.
The Minister has not forgotten the
suppineness of the Imperial Govern
ment in 1900, which permitted the
Boxer movement to spread until it Im
plicated the court and required inter
national intervention.
The views of the Russian Foreign
Minister are regarded as significant,
especially as they follow the renewed
assurances of the Chinese Minister.

Jjpholstered arm \ ,
Made from good materials and uii-
nsually stylish. The wood is mahogan-
ized birch, resembling genuine mahogany
enough to deceive many. 'All. of. our up-
holstered furniture is of an exceptionally
good quality, yet much of it is quite inex- '
•pensive. 'Chairs, rockers, settees and /
davenports are all here in big variety.
