Some enthusiasts, always, in search of a new kind of thirst quenclicr, have discovered that an imported liquor called "Bummerlunner" arouses strange feelings that are indescribable. It comes from Denmark, and is said to he made of aged Holland gin with crushed caraway seeds. One of the guests at Browne's Chop House who drank a whole bottle and went to bed threw all his clothes out of the window, and his valise, and the pillows and mattresses. Then he rushed out into the street imbued with the idea that he was a cabhorse. His friends ran after him, and only succeeded in calming him down by putting a rope halter around the victim's neck and tying him up for the night in a stable near by, where they left him w.tli a bucket of cold water and a sack of oats, Aa illustration of the power of the 14in guns of the new super-Dreadnought of the United States Navy—the New York—is given by the New York Sun, which says: "It is estimated that the 15821b missile of a 14in gun will pierce 15.6 inches of Krupp plate at 7700 yards, or nearly four and a-half miles, and 17.3 inches of plate of 5400 yards, or more than three miles. The amidships armor of the British King George class of super-Dreadnoughts, 25,000 tons normal displacement, is 12 inches, and of the German Ersatz class of 27,000 tons it is 15 inches. As the Texas (a sister ship launched in May) and New York will be_ able to discharge their revolving ten 14in gvms on cither side of the ship at the same time, what Dreadnought now afloat could withstand the terrible impact of their metal?"
