It is related of two little girls of
eleven and thirteeu years of age
that they were late in going to
school, abd when about half way
the storm arose and they turn-d
back. After wandering about for
a time they came to a strawstack.
The older girl dug out the straw a9
far as she could. She then put her
sister in ahead of her and crowded
5 n after her. fShe took off their
shoes, and when tl leir feet grew
cold she rubbed them briskly.
The younger girl fell asleep, bnt
the elder kept awake and cwntiu

of dollars. The news ot : c ieve-
ments ef Lieutenant Zalinski's
eymmiite gun is blowing, to ptices
an old hu.'K in New York harbor
was not long in crossing the At
lantic, and ever since the United
States Government appropriated
$500,000 for the building of a
cvu'ser to carry three of these
formidable gucs foreign naval
officers have been hastening to this
country to inspect this new ei g ne
of warfare. So fai damp's ship
yard has been visited bv Japanese
Chinese, French, English, Danish,
Italian and Spanish officers anxiou-;
io inspect the gun, and a Uili
Russians official is now on Lis way
t this city for the same purpose.
The cruiser, which is now on the
ways, has not yet been named, but
probabiy will be before her com
pletion, which will be in about
diree months. She is to make
.wenty knots an hour, and will
e provided wjth veiticnl, triple
expansion, twin screw engines of
3300 indicated horse power, and
four cylindrical locomotive boilers.
Her measurement will be 700 tons;
length, 240 feet; breadth, 26) feet
mean draught, SJfeet. She will
carry two aud one 12J inch
guns, and ttiese are now being
made in the shops of the firm.
The range of these guns will be at
Ua;t one mile. The lOJ inch
shell will carry 200 pouuds of ex
plosive gelatine equal to 326
pounds of dry gun cotton, and tue
12 inch sheil 400 pounds of ex
plosive gelatine, equal to 652
1'ouns of dry gun cotton. Theso
sheils, whicii are of very peculiar
construction, are being made at
one of the Government stations.
. The Zalinski gun is uo more like
the oruinai y gun of naval warfare
than a monitor is like a man-of-wa
. Its cheif peculiarities are
length and slimness. The project
ile force, as the name of the gun
pueumatic dynamite the torpedo
shows, is air, which is admitted
from compressing rtseivo rs. By
an automatic arrangement more
and more air is admitted as the
shell moves toward the muzzle.
The greatest pressure is upon the
projectile just as it leaves the gun.
J3y this use of compressed air the
danger ot exploding the dynamite
by a succen impact is avoided and
a greater force can be obtained. A
peculiarity of the torpedo shells
used in the gun is that the time of
their explosion cau be fixed so that
it shall not be until after they have
penetrated the armor if they should
strike a vessel, or until they shall
have passed beneath the surface if
tney suould flail into the water.
The concussion produced bv one
of these dynamite shells exploding
under water wiil be so tremendous
as to crash in the hull of any ordi
nary vessel. The range of the guu
is determined by the amount of
pressure pplied, and it can be
fixed ta a nicety. Other novel fea
tures ot za inski sun make it
so fori, idable for all kinds of naval
warfare, as well as for land fortifi
cations, that the interest shown by
toreign nations in it is amply jus
tified. At What Age to Marry.
Philadelphia Press,
Ho young woman having pro
per regard for her own subsequent
health or that of her offspring
phould marry before she has ar
rived at maturity in this country
usually between twenty and twenty
three years of age. A man reaches
his full development later between
twenry five and thirty. There may
very well be a difference of tea
years between husband and wife.
The former ought to be in his
prime at foty, whereas the latter
at the same age is commonly well
not quite so fresh looking as she
was. And what husband is there
whose wife is still dear to him but
desires that she should prolong her
good looks into his old age? A too
early marriage, by bringing iaits
train ill-health, soon causes a wife
to appear careworn. The power
to be spiritual or " interesting in.
other ways may exist, but stilf
goad looks never fail to exorcise
powerful swaj in a household, and
a woman, even when married,
should be careful to retain her
her bloom and comeline&s, if only
for her husband.
