A‘second later her body was tumbling through the air. Women and children screamed.

His back was also badly hurt, but fortunately not broken. He was removed to the Hunts- ville hospital, where he now lies under the care of Drs.

The Specifications will call for unusual speed and an enormous steaming radius. The 1i~t‘is headed with three battleships of 13,000 tons displacement, armed with 13-inch guns. The speed requirement will be not less than 18 knots, with a draught of about 10 feet. Three first-class armored cruisers of 12,000 tons displacement, with a speed of 22 knots. These cruisers will be larger than anything in the present navy. Three second-rate cruisers of 6000 tons displacement, and having a steaming radius of 13,000 knots, will also be asked for, with 5 and 6-inch rapid fire guns. The estimates will provide for six protected cruisers of 2500 tons displacement, carry- ing 5-inch rapid fire guns, having a speed of 16 knots, and a steaming radius of 18,000 knots. The protected cruisers are design- ed for use in the Pacific; This addition to the present navy is made absolutely necesâ€" sary by the acquisition of Hawaii and the ible retention of a portion of the hilippines. The large steaming radius demanded in all the new vessels is con‘ sidered to mean that the administration is prepared to follow the popular demand for territorial expansion. The experts of the navy department have been at work on plans and specifications for the addition to the navy for months, and have not yet completed them. Smaller crafts will be provided for in the estimates. The president and navy department feel coafldent that congress will see the neces- sity of augmenting the navy. and will provide] an appropriation without objec- Lion.

AUGUST 25TH.1898- H HUNGER IN WARTIME HOW IT COMPELS EXPERIMENTS UPON QUEER MEATS. It is only in times of siege and famine that men discover how many difi‘erent kinds of food there are besides those usual- ly consumed. Hunger drives them to ex- periments upon substances which they Would shrink from eating on ordinary oc- casions, and they frequently find that these uncommon foods, generally consid- ered unfit for human beings, are not only nourishing but agreeable in flavor once the prejudice against them has been bro- ken and the palate accustomed to the new taste. There have been at times in diflerent countries associations of persons who made trials of odd foods for the purpose of ascer- taining their fitness for consumption, but they have never succeeded in accomplish- ing their projected reforms. Most people cling fondly to their old ideas about What isrgood to eat and what is not, and only the prospect of genuine famine can per- suade them to try ordinarily condemned things; When any town or-district has been be- seiged for such a. length of time that its food supply runs short, the first proceed- ing usually resorted to in order to procure food for the inhabitants is the killing of. horses. This meat seems to be preferred to any other of an unusual nature when the everyday beef, mutton and pork be- come unobtainable.’ The eating of horse- flesh under such circumstances is a prac- tice dating back to very early times, in- stances of it being mentioned among the Persians, the Greeks and other nations of antiquity. Later it is recorded that at the siege of Antioch, in the first crusade, the horses of the besiegers were eaten in such quantities that in two months not more than 2,000 of the original 70,000 were left. At the siege of Metz 30,000 horses are said to have been eaten. But the famous siege of Paris in the T Franco-Prussian war furnishes the most interesting example of the variety of meats which may be used in great straits. During that terrible winter of 1870-1, while the German army outside prevented supplies of any kind from being brought into the unfortunate French capital, not only such familiar animals as horses, mules, dogs, cats, rats and mice supplied the tables of rich and poor alike, but even the menagerie of wild beasts in the Jardin des Plantes disappeared gradually, and neither doubt nor surprise was expressed at its destination. 1 >1 tl‘e horses 65,000 were eaten during the Hull: 'l‘his meat, however, was not ' new to the Parisian tasteâ€"at least not to the taste of the working classes. Since 1 1866 it had been lawful to slaughter horses 1 for human food, and horse butcher shops 3 were cc mmon establishments in the city. [ But th : entire number of horses killed in time 01‘ peace was trifling compared to this enormous total in wartime. The Pari- sians, with their irrepressible levity and disposition to smooth matters ever, even under such circumstances as these, called the horse meat “siege venison,” and there were few complaints regarding it. 3’ A womanâ€"she said she was a promi- i'nent society woman, and her name had a familiar and distant soundâ€"came into this office One day last week to have print- ed a notice that she and a group or, hem friends, all prominent women, were about 150110 something for the soldiers. It was a charitable eme, just like a more of others, but it happened that a reporter M, 1.. LA.‘ According to the general testimony, not only of the French at this time, but of scientists in difl‘erent countries who have tried the meat under many conditions, horseilesh possesses a flavor about half way between that of beef and game and is variously compared to venison and to hare. It is coarser in grain than beef and in this rOSpect resembles bull beef more than any other. It has a peculiar smell, which is at first a trifle disconcerting, but which ' soon becomes familiar, and a certain sweetness of taste. It is darker in color ‘ and more moist than beef. Its fat, which ‘ is me st and ellow is n t enerally mix; ; ed with the {68.11, {lid 1? sgon melts and becomes rancid. One authority says that horse meat, being richer, is undoubtedly . superior to beef for soup, and he goes on ' to declare that for roasting the best parts of a young horse are finer than any beef. The chief chemical difference between the two is that horseflesh has the greater 1 quantity or the nitrogenous substance called creatine. he "Siege Venison" of Paris 13 Usually the First Resourceâ€"Then the Flesh 02‘ Dogs, Cats, Rats and Even Wild Beasts In bevoured. Besides t‘ho 65,000 horses eaten during the siege of Paris 1,000 asses and 2,000 mules are said to have been consumed. The flesh of the latter was pronounced delicious, excelling horseflesh in its qual- vanvu vv ~v v_-_v,, Of the animals in the menagerie of the Jardin des Plantes the flesh of two bears which were eaten was likened to pork, both in texture and taste. Three elephants were consumed, and while there is no rec- ord of the way in which the Parisians pre- pared their elephant meat it is well known that it can be made pleasant to the taste when cooked in the proper way. African travelers and hunters have many tales to tell of the delicacy of baked elephant’s foot. Elephant’s heart and liver are also esteemed as food. and steaks cut from the animal are said to be juicy and tender. , AL- Gunman“- w.
