COLOMB VERSUS MAHAN

British Admiral Disagrees With Our Naval Authority.

VIEWS ON FIXED 00AST DEFENSES.

Admiral P. H. Colomb'a Opinion Clashes With That of Captain Ita­

lian ob the Great Value »nd Desir­

ability of Fixed Porta—He Dreads

the Effect of Sach a Chance on British 1'nhllc Opinion.

A recent editorial in the New York Bun on coast defenses is as follows: In the London Times of a recent date Admiral P. H. Colomb takes Captain Mahan to task for what the latter has •aid in favor of fixed coast defenses. He sighs at the thought that the United States will now be pestered by a demand for that which is "neither army nor navy, and which would be in most part mere waste of money and energy —namely, coast defeMe." As congress is expected to pass a liberal fortifications bill at the present session, it becomes of consequence to know whether Admiral Colomb's views or Captain Mahan's are the more correct, at least as applied to the United States.

The British naval officer regrets to find that "Captain Mahan has gone over to the enemy, bag and baggage," by admitting the great value and desirability of fixed forts. The famous American critic, it appears, after arousing the world by his demonstration of the influence of sea power on history now "leads the crusade in favor of a very large, perhaps an enormous, expenditure on what is neither army nor navy.' and Admiral Colomb also dreads the effect of such a change of front on British public opinion. Indeed he remarks that one "mopt competent, authority, regarding naval warfare from Captain Mahan's present point of view," has declared that the fortifications of Plymouth will not be complete until they can resist the attack of all the navies of the world.

The opinions of Captain Mahan thus condemned by Admiral Colomb and by other correspondents of The Times are those he has expressed in pointing out the lessons of our war with Spain. One of these lessons he has held to be that our lack of adequate coast defense was a drag upon aggressive naval operations at the start, while Spain's corresponding lack was to her even more serious. As to Captain Mahan's assertion that coast defense "is nearly a constant quantity," Admiral Colomb makes tliis reply: "There is no end to the number of places claiming fortification, nor is there any end to the amount of protection that each place will demand. Once we assume that naval force does not control the amount of force which the enemy can brin.K across the sea to the attack, or when we go to the extreme point of assuming that the use of coast defense is to 'free' the navy and to enable it to go on missions that are not defensive, then it is impossible to say what place will not be attacked and equally impossible to say how strong the attack will be. "CoasS defenses—which no one denies to be lieeenyary to the superior naval power in certain small pro rli,: .- —c::n be kept within some limits by assuredly limiting She of force vriiii :ty be broui.'ht aifiiinst them. That again can only be done by placing the enemy's forces under such observation that tlwy can only operate bv means of evasion. If coast ueft nsc-8 'are of iinnieiiM- power, they may i-.heltf the inferior fleet for a time. Li.it a!! thr.t ordinary fortifications uo fur the inferior naval power is to force I he band of the superior power to I linger forces or a different kind of force lor their attack."

The British admiral says he would be glad if 1: coull think that- Captain Mahan "was rosily. lil:e Loni Ht. Vincent. thii:-l:iny abor.i Uicold women at home when he writ of eoast, defenses, but it ca:.n bo II .' has embrace'l with lli Lis arms the l'ailncy that coast defenses will 1'reo the flee-., and suffer it to leave it: rear open Admiral Colomb continr. e-.

Admiral Colomb appears to be obe5fi'i those British naval officers who h.jw become so •-lated .t M.hr.u denioii'-trati 'i: of .: .11. of sea power that they rush to the extreme conceding little or uothin: to land jf.w er, at least in shore defense. But Cap tain MaLat. view is the wiser.

Admirai vViomb speaks of the "panic" created by the possibility of Cervera's attacking our northern coast. The truth is that at the outset we not only had not enough guns mounted in the forts, but were short of projectiles, powder and other appliances, whereat had New York and other porta been properly fortified, as they soon will be, a fleet many times as strong as Cervera's would have been powerles against them, and the long detention oi a large part of our naval force at Norfolk won Id not have been necessary. Captain Mahan has rightly drawn tlit lesson for us on this point, and congress. while mindful of the needs of the navy, will not wisely forget the land

ROUND SHOULDERS.

Row to Straighten Them by Observing Certain Rnloa.

The very best and most nourishing foods must be taken, as weakness of constitution or health is one of the first causes of round shoulders. You should take a strong iron and quinine tonic, and if it is cold weather when you begin the cure take cod liver oil as well If this is apt to disagree, take cream instead. You must keep regular hours as to meals and sleep and have plenty of outdoor exercise, only without undue exertion. Walking is about the best exercise to take, though riding and bicycling may be indulged in when yon are getting better.

You must be careful to sleep on a hard mattress, never on a feather bed, and you must also take care that your pillows are not raised too much, as this is apt to throw the head forward and add to the rounded shoulders instead of making them any better. You should be very careful always to walk very straight and never lounge along the road. The way to do this is to hold the shoulders well back, the chin well in the air, to look straight forward on a level with your eyes, and never droop the head and go through life looking for possible pins on the ground.

On no account must you stoop over your work or reading, as this is very bad indeed. If you are sewing, you must sit in a very low chair and one that has a straight back to lean against If by any chance you have to sit on a high chair to do your work, you must see that you have a footstool. In writing you should either sit at a table which is the proper height or you should always use a sloped desk and in reading never hold the book on your knee, but hold it up and lean back or sit upright

You should very often hold your hands behind your back and walk this way up and down a room or out of doors for ten minutes at a time when you have nothing better to do. You must also lie flat on a backboard or the floor soveral hours a day. You should also practice walking up and down the room with a book balanced on your head. This will make you hold your head very upright and help to cure the ugliness of your round shoulders.
