The naval board appointed to investi gate the feasibility of converting the whaleback type of ship Into auxiliary war cruisers has reported that these vessels do not present features which would make them useful as commerce destroyers or Sghtlng ships, on account of the impossi bility of mounting them with heavy ordnance. It would not be possible, to Install heavy ordnance on any part of the ship owing to their light construction and little deck space.

MANY VESSELS WRECKED ON THE ATLANTIC COAST. Ships Founded to IMeces in the Sight ot Men Who Can Bender No Aid New Jersey Town and Ballroads Suffer, Sea Bath Its Ferlls. A Score of Lives Lost, For two days last week the whole Atlantic coast from Boston to Baltimore was in tho clutches of the worst storm since tho nover-to-be-f rffotten blizzard of lt8?, and not only the 3oast, but all the states north of the Ourounas and east of the Allegheny Mountains, including tho whole of New York State, sucked in the loy blasts and drew therh as far as Buffalo. It was a tei'i-ilk' strife of the elements. and did incalculable damage io life and property throughout the most densely populated part ot the country. For twenty-four hours the winds of the ocean nnhed furiously past Sandy Hook, up through Hell Gate, at tho rate of sixty-nine miles an hour. This would have been disagreeable and dan gerous if the wind had no companions, for such a wind not only wrinkles the sea and makes it turbulent and peril ous to sbips and their burdens, but it has power enough ti overturn build iiiffs, to uproot trees, and to olay havoc wiiu the means ol human ci'mmunloatioa Hut tho wind was not alone this time. It was accompanied and assist ed by snow and sleet, which made it bitter cold. Togother these three swept the fea and tbe land, covering the habitations of men with an ioy veil, heaping the earth high with a blanket of snow, playing with mighty vessels as children play with whittled boats, lifting them nigh on the crest of a mighty wave and then plunging tnem into au abyss 01 omirnmg waters and crushing thorn there; breaking men's limbs and beating their lives out against the jagged rocks; hurrying through tho streets of cities, as a mountain torrent plunges boiling through a narrow gorge, tearing down teieirrapii poles as 11 tnev weie tooui picks, twisting thick and heavy wires nice cotton thread, ana wittial roaring and howling in hideous triumph, like tne myria 1 devils ot a nightmare. In some rosrects this storm was more droadfui and disastrous than the bliz zard which paralyzed New York six years ago. That was fiercer, but It did not uitruse itsell over so great an area. Thursday everv foot of erround east of Buffalo was covered with thirty inches of snow, which had been falling for more man twenty-tour Hours, nearly every te'e.-fraph and telephone wire in rew lorK, iv ew Jersey, Maryland, Eastern Pennsylvania and Delaware was torn down by tho fury of the blast. New York was' practically isolated. Baltimore, Boston, Philadelphia and wasningcon were in a similar pugnt. Terrible Work of the Storm. The work of the storm along the Jersey coast was something terrible. Furl )us gales of wind and monstrous seas wrought havoc ana destruction. Huliaings, trees, telegraph ana tele' phone wires, railway tracks, embank ments, wharves and fences ail yielded to tno aest: uctive lury 01 the elements. Above it all stands out the los-s ol human life. Many vessels, large and small, were wrecked. The crews of the Sandy Hook, Sauan and Long Branch uie-saving stations put out to tne as sistance of the disabled vessels at soon as they were reported ashore, but it was not known when the first dis) atches woro sent out that a single lite naa ix-oii savou, as tne lurtous sea rrnning i nd the blinding snow pro vented any effective work upon tho part 01 tne lite-savers. At.lantlf CMtv RiiffArart Anni(1rtrfthlv Waves dashed over the board walk, and at times this famous attraction was threatened with being carried out to sea. Gen. Earl's hotel, says a dispaten, tno jxormanaie-oy-the-fcea, ii likely to be totally wrecked. At Ga'i Ice the ocean is undermining St Peter' Church, which the tide will also prob ably brin down. In Morris, Bergea and V arren counties roads were impassable. Trains on railroads tun ning Into Jersey City and Hobken were all delayed. The meadowi between Jersov City and Hobrket and Newark are several inchei under water and nothing is visible except telephone and telegraph polos. At Hayonne many boats and boathouses were washed awav. At South Amboy a partially erected house was blown down, and at New Brunswick electric light, telegraph and telephone wires were levele l to the ground, in calculable damage was done to t's iruit orops. The peach crop sulioreu particularly, and it is feared that the entire orop will prove a failure. Farmers throughout the State will b heavy sufferers. Wrecked Off Milwaukee, A little yawl boat, nine feet long, drifted to the beach, several milei north of Milwaukee, bearing the tin-con-oious form of Capt. William 15, Wood, the onlv survivor ol tho sehoonoi Island City. The other two men wu comprised tho crew of t he lost boat wore undoubtedly drowned when the boa) went down. Capt. Wood was so nearh dead from exposure that 1 a barelj managed to crawl to a farmhouse neai the shore and then became unconscious again He arrived iu the city in th afternoon and told the story of the lost of his boat.

Thia wonderful Nervine Tonio has only recently been introduced Into this country by tt.e proprietors and manufacturers of tho Great South American NervitJi Tonic, and yet its great value as a curative agent has long been known by a few of the most learned physicians, who hare not brought its merita and value to the knowledge of the general public This medicine has completely solved the problem of the enre of indigestion, dyspepsia, and diseases of the general nervous system. It is also of the greatest valuo in tha cure of all forms of failing health from whatever cause. It performs this by the great nervine tonic qualities which it possesses, and Ijy its gTfc curative powers upon the digestive organs, the stomach, the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully va'uable Nervine Tonio as a builder and strengthener of the life forces ci' the human body and as a great renewer of a broken-down constitution.

As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able to compare with ths Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in all its effecte upon the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate individual. Nino tenths of all tho.ail ments to which the human
family is heir are dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired digestion. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the braiu, spinal marrow, and nerves is the result Starved nerves, .ike starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must supply all the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it is the first to suffer for wunt of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not contain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nerves. For this reason it becoiaes necessary that ii nerve food be supplied. This South American Norvine has been found by analysis to contain the essential elements out of which nerva tissue is formed. This accounts for its universal adaptability to the cure of all forms of nervous de
