H.M.S. MAJESTIC.
We have here a picture of the great battleship Majestic, the flagship of the Channel Fleet (1897). Of 14,900 tons displacement, steaming 57 knots, armoured over two-thirds of her length, carrying four twelve inch guns, twelve quickfiring ioo-pounders (six-inch), sixteen is-pounders, and many smaller guns, the Majestic is indeed one of the most powerful fighting machines which ever sailed upon the seas, perhaps the most powerful if we except hsr own consorts. Of these there are no less than eight, viz, the Magnificent, Illustrious, Prince George, Mars, Jupiter, Hannibal, Victorious, and Cesar, all of them identical in essential features with the Majestic, and forming together the most powerful battleship squadron in the world.
