The Battleship Inflexible
By JOHN TEMPLE GRAVES.
"ryfFTEIt all. the surpassing specta-
/roI cle of the Hudson-Fulton con-
J lenntal was the battleships that
lay at anchor on the bosom of lhe
great river which bears the discover-
ers name.
Other pageants were passing and
set for a day. But the battleships
of the nations lay there motionless
and still for a fortnight, the observed
of ail observers and the cynosure of
the millions who live here and of the
millions who came to see.
Pre-eminent among the battleships
was the Inflexible, of the British navy,
described and admired as the greatest
fighting engine in the world. I trust
that every American citizen who was
able to do so went to see the battle-
ship Inflexible. 1 am sorry for those
who tailed to see this wonderful en-
gine of war. and I am quite confident
that any thoughtful man who enjoyed
this opportunity must have come home
admiring and reflective upon this sur-
passing pre-eminent and significant
spectacle of the greatest celebration
the world has even known.
The pride of the English navy is
second to the new Dreadnought just
launched upon the Clyde, hut not yet
in service, and so the flagship of Ad-
miral Seymour holds for the time its
title as the greatest battleship in the
world.
I have not recovered from the thrill
and respect with which 1 left t.he decks
of this great Iron monster of destruc-
/ lion. England is beyond question the
greatest naval power in the world, and
this, the greatest expression of Its
naval purer and supremacy, should
necessarily have been of tremendous
interest to Americans, who possess
what Admiral Seymour declares to be
the second naval power of the earth.
The spirit of England is In the bat-
tleship Inflexible. One feels it Is as he
treads its finished decks or observes
the power and solidity of its machine-
ry. One does not wonder at the in-
fluence which the English government
has so long exercised upon the world
when he studies at close quarters this
organized and thoroughly business en-
gine of destruction. The thorough-
ness of England Is in its machinery,
in its iron power, in its remorseless
effectiveness, in the careful and pains-
taking skill with which its turrets re-
volve at almost a child's touch, and in
the tremendous guns which carry
hurling death across the seas. Spick
and span front conning tower to the
sailors bunks, conserving every inch
of space to the purpose of its creation,
equipped to the last limit of modem
perfection in its guns and machinery,
scorning all narrow parsimony in per-
fecting the vast mission which it was
Bet to perform, officered by trained
disciplined and dauntless men, with
everything In order and system from
the taut line* tlm; carry the admiral s
flying at the masthead to the trenches
of death In which the blood of the
wounded was to be home to the seas,
this monster of battle—bloody yet
benefieient, beautiful and baneful—
stands as the type and the expression
of the policy which has made the tight
little isle for hundreds of years the
mistress of the Seven Seas.
There are better thoughts around
the Inflexible than the sngestions of
carnage and of war written in its
sombre cannon and its rattling guns.
The battleship inflexible is not only
the engine through whiclt England
makes war upon its enemies and de-
fends itself from its foes, but It is just
as much the compelling beneficence
by which it keeps the peace of its own
tittle island ahd of the world.
We American people have just as
much or more need than England for
a mighty navy to maintain the .suprem-
acy of our prestige and our commerce
upon the seas We need just as much
as England the strong defense which
rests in unequalled guns. We require
just as thoroughly the bulwark of
steel-plated hulls arid battle-armored
decks in protecting the splendid isola-
tion which separate* us in distance
and in interest from the nations Hut
we need most of all as a great peace-
loving and peace-conserving republic
the silent yet omnipotent power which
great guns and armored hulls make for
peace in this land of the free.
The power that has made little Eng-
land great among the nations is the
power that will make this republic
greater among'the nations. If Eng-
land's small territory, swept by chan-
nels' and seas, has been able for cen-
turies to hold its own in commerce
and in war against this mighty w-orld.
what might we expect of this great
republic, magnificent in territory, in-
comparable in riches and lacking only
this essential equipment for the won-
der and admiration of the world?
The vital lesson of this great centen-
nial has been lost upon the American
people if the sight of this greatest of
England's battleships has not preach-
ed, day by day, through the ear and
eye of this great metropolis, to the
eye and ear of the conutry, the wis-
dom, the vigor and the necessity of
England's policy upon the sea.
We are the richest country in alt
the world. We are better able by
far than England to own the greatest
navy in the w-orid. And if America did
own the greatest navy of the world,
then America, and not. England, nor
any other nation, would be the master-
power of the world and the irresistahle
conservator of peace among the na-
tions.
In the few days that remain while
the English navy anchors its chiefest
pride in our noble Hudson let the
American people visit it with respect-
ful admiration and carry its lesson ir
congress and the state*.
BROOKLYN WILL KEEP
HUDSON’S HALF MOON
QUAINT OLD SHIP WILL BE KEPT
IN PARK.
Fate of the Clermont, Companion Ship
In the Hudson-Fulton Celebration _
is Not Decided.
New York, Oct. 15.—Brooklyn is to
have the reproduction of the Half
Moon which was presented to the Hud-
son-Ftiltou celebration commission by
the celebration commission of the
Netherlands. Ii was learned last
night that it had been decided prac-
tically that the 'quaint old boat on
its return from the upper Hudson
shall be turned over to the park de-
partment In Brooklyn and shall (here-
after be kept 'n the big lake in Pros-
pect park, whe, • all who wish may
see it.
What shall be done with the repro-
duction of the Clermont has not been
decided definitely as vet. The Albany
Day Line wanted to purchase the copy
of Fulton's Invention and run It up
and down the river, largely as an ad-
vertisement. This is not favored by
the commission, it Is said, and It. is
much more probable that the craft
will be given to the Manhattan park
department.
Many old articles on the Half Moon
and the Clermont during the celebra-
tion will be removed if the vessels
are put in the park lakes, and admis-
sion probably will be denied the gen-
eral public. During the celebration
here some vandals got away with an
inkstand of old design and with a
quantity of quill pens from the Cler-
mont, Rnd a souvenir hunter gouged
out a great section of a hide covered
Crunk which was not only old, but had
some Interesting associations.

Echo In a Woman’s Heart
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
Envied the Japa.
"I wouldn't like to be a Chinee
kid," said Bobby, "with their funny
pigtails."
* Me either," assented Tommy, "but,
gee! I'd like to be a little Japanese
boy."
“You would? What for?”
" 'Cause there is always somebody
trying to keep the little Japanese boys
from going to school. Nobody ever
tries to keep us from going.”—Chi-
cago News.
A Community.
Afler a visit to a famous etomolo-
gist, whose wonderful microscopes
have proved that there is always some
living being to be found preying on
the last of the minutest creature last
seen, an English writer turned to him
and said:
"I came here, believing myself to
he an Individual I leave, knowing
myself to be a community.”
Mr. Moore believes that the visit of
the delegation will be the means of
bringing Japan into far closer touch
with lids country, and he has given |
several months of Ids time to tin- j
cause. The visitors have been enter- |
tained by many commercial bodies in ;
the west and will upend considerable
time in the east before returning home.
A Cruet Joke.
.Miss Daisy Dintpte found a love let-
ter that her father nad written to tu t
mother In the Italy cop days of their
courtship.
Daisy read the lener to her mother
says Judge, substituting her own
name and that of her sweetheart
Daisy's mother mied wi'h angei
and stamped her foot in disgust, and
forbade her daughter to have anything
to do wirh a man who would write
'such nonsensical stuff to a girl."
Daisy then gave the letter to her
tsother to read.
Tlte house became so suddenly quiet
that she could bear the flies walking
across the celling.

"Mj peace Is gone.
My heart Is gore;;
I never shall find it.
Ah, nevermore!.
Save I have him near
The grave is here,
The world is gall
And hitierness all.
,Mv poor weak head
l.s rneked anti dazed;
My thought is lost,
My senses mazed.
My peace is gone,
>1 ■. heart Is sore;
I shall never find it,
All. nevermore!
To see him, him only,
At. ihe pane I sit;
lo meet him, him only
Tile house I quit.
IBs lofty gait,
His noble size.
The smile of his moulh,
'I lie power of his eyes.
And ihe magic How
of his talk, the bliss
In the clasp of his hand
And ah, his kiss!
My peace is gone.
My heart is sore:
I never shall find it.
All, nevermore!
"If THINK that tiie. most plaintive lit
tie love wail I ever read, and
the saddest part of it is that it
cannot but find an echo in many a
girl's heart.
There are girls in plenty tint world
over whose "peace Is gone and whose
hearts are sore.”
it is so pitifully' easy to break a
girl's heart, that « man must find but,
sorry triumph- in the achievement
When a man’s love is wounded, he,
can go out in the world anil work he
has every distraction and amusement
at hand; he even tills the time by reck-
less dissipation, and people simply
murmur, “Poor fellow, he Is drowning
his sorrows: lie'll come out all right,"
And being a man he does come out all
right of the troubles of love quite tin
scathed, arid ready to fall'in love all
over again.
But. with the girl it is quite different;
she Just quietly sits down and frets
her heart, out. The hardest, part is
the waiting, and the struggle to believe
that ail Is really at aa end, that the
love which seemed so everlasting is
dead.
It is no use to say, “Don’t weep,
little heart; things will be better aftei
a time."
To a bleeding heart "after a time"
seems us long as eternity.
’
My heart aches every time l have
10 tell one of my girls (hat time will
help her sorrow. It seems that such bar-
ren comfort, when i Itnow that an*;
w ants me to Jell her that all will be
well, and linn her love'story will again
run as smoothly as it has in the past
False Comfort.
lint I cannot falsely comfort her
with words that I know to he untrue,
.Somehow or other the words
“To see him only at. the pane 1 sit,
To meet him only the house I quit,”
seem unalterably paliuttlo to me.
So many women the world over
have v.;tteht*d and waited for the com
In:’, of 'lie man, and with his passing
goes the glory of the universe.
I don't want you to feel that way,
my girls; I don't want you to feel
that because you have been disap-
pointed lu love your heart and your'
peace are dead forevermore.
You must not live in the memory of
a man' love and ills kisses.
Love and kisses from the man who
.-ineere'y loves you are things lo re-
member all your life. But don't dedi-
cate your hie to the memory of a kiss
that Is false.
Don't weep yier<- youta away over
11 dead love. If it is a worthy love,
do all that, lies in votir power te keep
It alive. But it Is not in the power
ol one woman in a thousand to re-
k ed.V the bumf-ovi ashes of a dead
in, •
Save Yo.tr Pride.
Tnefe is one thing that you can save
fruit the wreck, and that is your
;e id 1 liven til logu • -»• heart Im

to recall that yotit; little ship of hap
I'nness vent down with colors flying
You need not lacerate your heart
by My'ng to pretend that you don't
care Fiery one respects a sincere
love, and false pretense on your part
would hi’ unworthy and unnecessary.
But to run after the man and try to
finoe him to pretend a. love that he did
not feci would lie undignified as well
as useless.
He may be false to you and his lave
may lie dead, hut at least lie cannot
help hut respect yon If you accept the
Inev itable in a dignified, womanly man-
ner.
Do not, like poor little Gretcheu, sit
hi the window and watch and wait
for him. hut make up your mlud to
bear a woman's heartache with a
woman's courage.
Too Much.
