If the Dreadnought realizes her
indicated speed she will change
the character of sea combat, be-
ing able, though a steel battleship
with the heaviest gun equipment,
to maneuver with the fleetness of
a cruiser of the newest West Vir-
ginia type. The interest she will
demand must have its influence
on congress when the question of
enlarging the Michigan and the
South Carolina comes up.' The^e
battleships of 16,000 tons, author
ized last March, it is proposed to
increase to the size and power of
the Dreadnought.
They would constitute two
ships by comparison with which
the crack battleships of our Span-
ish war navy would be pigmies.

ST. LOUIS, U. S. A,
Vance Thompson, in Everybody's
Magazine for November, describes in
‘The Rothschilds of France," the
pageantry of Baron Arthur Roths-
child's funeral.
"The Baron Arthur." says Mr.
Thompson, “was a weakling; he was
unregarded in his lifetime; the news-
papers said he died by his own hand;
but his funeral served to illustrate
the family magnificence and social
power. All traffic was stopped in the
main thoroughfares of the city
through which the procession passed.

Blunders in English.
A writer in the Boston Tran-
script recalls some amusing blun-
ders foreigner's make in using
English. A Hungarian journal-
ist, leading tip to an account of
an earthquake, told how merrily
the evening had passed. Just be-
fore the crash came the ladies trad
retired to their rooms, whereas
“we man was remaining in the
coffee.” A French dressmaker ad-
vertised her work as “grand, ele-
gant and swell.” A police and
sympathetic Jap wrote: “I’m
rather sorry you have been so ill,”
and a Parisian lady asked to be
recommended as a teacher of
French, and added, with exquisite
naivette: “I am not obliged to
earn my life, but I want to have
two strings to my arc.”
An excited Italian, when he had
sent a manuscript with a page
missing, wrote: “If anything like
this happens again, notify me
suddenly." These infelicitis re-
call also the Mexican diplomat at
Waashington who affably re-
marked: “Your climate in Buf-
falo is wat you call deeficoolt—

Texarkana, Ark., Dec. 9.—The
convention of the Farmers’ Educa-
tional Union of America adopted a
constitution and elected officers yes-
terday.
The constitution as brought iu by
the committee on constitution and
by-laws was debated for six hours
tnd then adopted, with only a few
slight alterations. Among the pro-
visions is one placing the per capita
tax of members at 5 mills instead
of 1 per cent, as as at first propos-
ed. The article on membership
provides that in addition to farm-
ers, lawyers and doctors living in
the country and in the towns that
are not incorporated may become
members, but lawyers and doctors
living in cities and incorporated
towns are not eligible to member-
ahip. Newspaper men may become
members ou taking the required ob-
ligation.
At the noon hour after the con-
ctitution had been adopted, the
Texas delegation held a caucus and
resolved to vote as a unit on all fur-
ther questions coming before the
convention. It also resolved to sup-
port T. A. Calvin of Collin County
lor national president, Newt Gresh-
am of Point for national organizer,
and W. S. Miller for national com-
mitteeman.
When the afternoon session of the
convention was called to order, how-
ever, Mr. Calvin withdrew his
name and another Texas man, O. 1’.
1’yle was elected president of the
national order by acclamation.
The success of Mr. Pyle is said
to be due largely to the efforts of
F. V. Evans of Fort Worth, who is
lecturer for the Twelfth Texas dis-
trict, who has been on the ground
hard at work for his man since the
opening day of the convention.
W. A. Morris of Sulligent, Ala.,
was elected vice-president; R. L.
(McCullogh, Arkansas, secretary
treasurer; Newt Gresham. Texas,
national organizer; J. II. Hea, Neo-
sho, Mo., doorkeeper; Z. R. Bell <.f
Georgia, sergeant-at-arms.
The executive committee as elect-
ed is as follows: E. J. Cook, Guin.
Alabama; J. H. Reynolds, Apple-
ton, Ark.; I. N. McAlester, Rattan,
L®.; C. S. Barrett, Atwater, Ga.;
Campbell Russell, Hereford, I. T.;
W. S. Miller, Like Creek, Texas.
The executive committee will
leave the naming of the headquar-
ters for the officers of the Nation-
al Union. It will probably decide
the matter before leaving here.
Dallas, Little Itock and Texar-
kana are the only places mention-
ed, and it is believed that one of
these will certainly be Qhosen.
The convention practically com-
pleted its work yesterday afternoon,
a night session being held for the
purpose of clearing up the odds and
ends of unfinished business.

It is expected that England’s
greatest battleship, the Dread-
nought, will be launched in Feb-
ruary and be ready for sea within
a year from that date. Since the
laying of her keel seven weeks
ago work has been vigorously
pushed in order that the new ideas
in naval construction and arma-
ment she represents may be test-
ed. Pending that test the build-
ing of other British battleships
has been suspended.
The Dreadnought will have a
displacement of 18,000 tons, 2.000
more than the six battleships now
building in the United States
She will be driven by turbine en-
gines of 25,000 horsepower, with
a promised speed of twenty-twe
knots. Her armament will com-
prise ten twelve-inch guns. She
will cost the enormous sum of
$7,500,000.
The Dreadnought will be the
most formidable fighting craft
afloat. Our first-class battleships
of the Maine and Missouri type
have a displacement of 12,300
tons, engines of 16,000 horsepow-
er and a speed of eighteen knots.
They are armed with four twelve-
inch guns each. First class Brit-
ish battleships like the King Ed-
ward VII. are eighteen and one-
half knot vessels of 16,350 tons.
French and German battleships of
modern type have a displacement
Is * Good Pedestrain.
Ex-Congressman Ben LeFevre,
of Ohio, is an enthusiastic advo-
cate of pedestrian ism as a health
giver. The sturdy veteran once
walked forty-eight miles in a day
while sightseeing in Switzerland,
and finished bis jaunt without
feeling specially fatigued. “I ver-
ily believe,” he says, “that if men
were to practice pedestrianism
more that they would gain grea*
physical benefit and possibly
lengthen their lives. I am not
as young as I used to be, but one
of these fine autumnal days I am
going to make an early start and
walk from Washington to Balti-
more. That ought not to be a dif-
ficult feat, and if I am not greatly
in error I wilt be able to nego-
tiate the distance long before sun-
down. The way to do such a pil- My iitue
gritnage is to take it easy and stop- •«riTno*

and a cup of coffee, whidh one > ‘j
