THK president is expected to appoint the five judges of the private land claims court this week. He has many applies tlons from which to select, and it is not improbable that be Will go outside of the applicants in some instances.

THK Chattanooga Times says that Bishop Joyce will probably be appointed chancellor of Grant university at Chatta nooga and Athens, Tenn. His appoint ment will be hailed with Relight by the people at large in those communities will mean great success for the insti tattoo. _____________

THK president will not appoint the new II, H, circuit court judges before Decern her. He has determined to procure such facto from thederks of snprems courts where applicants practice as will throw light upon the legal ability of the appli (mots which will largely determine him in making tho appointments. The prcsi dent is fully determined to appoint only able jurists to fill these positions.

THK people's party made a great blun der in selecting its treasurer. Robert Schilling, the treasurer, has been a bl« taut anarchist. He made an inflamatory anarchint speech on the first anniversary of the execution of the Chicago Haymarket conspirators and murderers and proclaimed that Uiose men were "martyrs and heroes." Great is the third party and an anarchist is its prophet!

THKRK are many indications that then will be a great and widespread kick In the state over the assessment of projierty under the new tax law. It is plain, al ready, that the execution of the law, in many sections of the state, it is being manipulated more with reference to ad vance the interest of party than to secure a just and fair a&tesement under its terms. In some localities the as mmt is at or below that made tinder the old law. lands are net assessed at any thing like their true valoc- On the other hand some lands appssr to be ostt&Hl high.

HERE AND THERE.

A good joke Is going the rounds at the expense of John Rice, the groceryman at Ninth ami Main streets. John, it seems, has a habit of raomng over to fire department headquarters when an alarm is tamed in and strikes the box on the bed after the companies have gone ont.' One day recently, Michael Scanlon was in Rice's store when an alarm of fire was tamed in and Rice wss ont of the store in an instant leaving a large pocketbook on the counter containing over $400. Seeing a chance for some fan, the fireman picked it up, stuck it down his back pocket and went out. Rice remained at the headquarters until the companies returned, which tbay did aoon. They asked biui fi be had sounded the box and be answered that he had sounded it four times distinctly. Then his went over to his store. He wasn't

PAN-AMERICAN RAILWAY.

The Enclnrfrlnt Corp* How at Work In Nonth America. J. 1 in brie Miller, engineer in charge of the third corps of men sent out by the international railway commission, arrived in Lima a few days since from Orayaquil, where he left the second and third corps. His business here is to obtain the recognition of the Peruvian government, authority to enter Peruvian territory and a permit to wry firearms. He was presented to the president by the American minister, Mr. Hicks, and secured the fuil authority desired. He returns to Guayaquil to-morrow, and from there the entire expedition, consisting of y-flve men and sight or ten tons of jlies, instruments and baggage will proceed at once to Quito, in the interior of Ecuador, Here it will divide the second corps under ^command of W, F. Sbunk, will begin the work of surveying towards the north and proceed to meet the army engineers sent ont from Mexico. The third corpt, in charge of Mr. Miller, will start southward through Ecuador and Peru, entering the valley of the Maraaon river, a tributary of the Amsxon, and proceeding' southward to Cerro di Pasco, striking the eastern terminus of the Orosa railroad from Lima, thence to Cusco, the ancient Inca capi-

IVru, where the route meets the tal of Funo and Cttsco railroad, and thence eouthsrly in the direction of toe Argentine Republic. Mr. Miller's route is more than 1,300 miles long through a wild and almost inaccessible mountain region, snd the work will require more than eighteen months. This expedition is one o( the fruits of the late Pan-Ameri-can congress which provided for the snr* vev of a railroad from Mexico to Chili and Argentine. The different republics interested taxed themselves $1,000 for every 1,000,000 of population snd the t?niccd Stales goveremcsit has already paid its share, 9^,000. r,*

Of all this pictorial argument, that which was borne on envelopes through the mails is perhaps the most interestIng. Many of the people of the North discarded their regular stationery and used, instead, that printed with emblems of their patriotism.

"The first man that attempts to haul down the American flagr, shoot him on the spot," are the words printed under & belching cannon surmounted by a red, white, and blue Hag of 34 stars. The national flag is a very prominent emblem, sometimes printed all over the envelope, and sometimes waving gracefully from one corner, but.always printed with the 34.stars significant of the Union.

THE TtJBRRT MOUNTED IX EARTHWORKS, with hiagaxine guns and smokeless powders, the probable re-armament of our army and & change of tactics.

Accuracy of aim and range of weapons of precision have marvelously increased since tht- last great war between civilized nations. Only the other day a few Austrian marksmen were able in an incredibly short space of time t%annihiiate the' whole personel of a battery (represented by dummies.) at a distance of 1,400 to 1,800 yards.

Shells filled with explosives wreck buildings^ and walls with a rapidity which iu the neat future seems destined to increase as the problem of propelling high explosives as a bursting charge for projectiles draws nearer to a satisfactory solution. The newest magazine rifle works with a quickness that gives a number of shots in a given time fully equal to the lire of the entire front rank of one of our infantry companies when armed with single-loaders, whits the penitrating force of the bullet is sufficient to take it through the trunks of great trees, as well as through earthworks almost two feet in thickness.

To protect-the crew of mpul-firing artillery portable fort ideations or armored turrents have been constructed iu t.he Oruson works at Magdeburg, Germany. Heavy armored turrets were construe ted years ago at tl»e same works, and were adopted for the fortifications of almost all European countries. They were very expensive, and their weight and the" consequent difficulty aod delay in their transportation "wero tremendous drawbacks. Their adoption, however, i» spite of these objections, weie due to the opinions of high military authorities, who declartd against Lite strategic value of great permanent fortifications and in favor of the construction and improvised defense. The types of turrets were made and armed with guns of 1.25inch and 2-incli calliber. These turrets are proof only against bullets and shell splinters, and cannot resist the full impact of heavier projectiles. But as the small turrets cannot become direct targets for artillery without excessive waste of ammunition they may be regarded practically shellproof.

The turrets, each of which contains a rapid-firing gun, are placed in position in the infantry trenches. They are transported 011 specially constructed carriages, which require at the least three horses to draw them where the country is at all rough, as the total weight of turret, carriage and ammunition suttU'ieiit to sustain the firing for a few minutes is about two tons. One man suffices for the service of the gun and the management of the turret which rests on a revolving pivot ancl consists of a cylinder thirty-eight inches in diameter, protected by steel armor in the shape of a cupola or case one inch in thicknes

The gunner sits upon a addle like the seat of a bicycle, while there is room in

tNSIDX VIEW WITH THE GUXKER AT WORK. the back of the turret for a second man, who passes the ammunition. The gunner can turn the dower on its pivot and change the gun elevation at will. A more elaborate form has been recently devised in order to afford greater protection to the gunners, By an arrangementof balances and weights the turret is made so that it can be raised and lowered from within The external cylinder is sunk into the soil, and the roof when the interior cylinder is towered is level with the ground. These turrets are more heavily plated and are of a more permanent nature, and in some cases are intended to rest insides funken cast-metal cylinder in the ground. They are afro intended to catty very much more powerful guns than the field turrets. The latter caa easily be transported by rail, can* be quickly moved where the road* are not too heavy and answer atl the demands of purely temporary fortifications.

NASBY'S GHOST.

Ab Aa«tt*|, bo! Ghostly Sterjr ul Humorist'* RuH«5. One of the most amusing incident# oonnected with N&sby occurred just sftw his death, "ft has been kept out Of the newspapers up to this time, but the story is too good to lose. Nasby waa a^ great favorite in Toledo, and wnea he died his funeral was a large on®. There were hundreds of carriages and bushels of flowers. After the funeral the body was placed for some days prior to its final burial in a ft large vault in the cemetery,. Now. it happened that on the same day the funeral of the great humorist took place Toledo had another big ceremony of the same nature. The deceased in the latter case was one of the most loved society ladies of the city, and tho flowers here were also numerous and beautiful.

This lady was also put in the same vault with Nasby, and the floral offerings were carried out and placed on her coffin. After the ceremony was over, as often occurs ia such oases, the family of the lady wanted to pre* serve photographs of these floral places, and they ordered thoir Irish, servant to go to the vault and bring the flowers into tho photograph gallery. Now Patrick Murphy—for so will call the man for short—had a holy horror of cemeteries. He was very superstitious, and he approached the vault with fear and trembling. He gradually got to the door, however, and found it open. He looked in and then gave a terrible shriek, dropped his hat and ran as if the devil was after him. He did not stop running until he came to a factory a long distance from tho cemetery. Here he was stopped by a crowd of workmen, who demanded what was the matter.

All breathless he told them that Nasby had either been burled alive or that his ghost had broken off tho top of the coffin, and he was sitting up in it The workmen laughed at him and called him a fooU He persisted in his story, and they finally .decidod to go and see. After much pursuasion they succeeded in dragging the Irishman back with them and finally reached the door of tho vault They looked in and found that the Irishman had told the truth. The body, in its grave clothes, was half out of tho ooffin, but it was not alone, as when tho man first saw It A. scttlptor stood besido it, and he was taking, with plaster of paris, a deatn mask for a bust which had been ordered by tho family. He had arranged the body for his work and had gone to get his tools when Patrick came on the scene and imagined ho saw a ghost I don't wonder he was scared. Do youP"

QUEER FREAKS OF MEMORY.

The Cue of Younu Woman Who Two Separate Live*. Throo extraordinary instances ot what doctors call "periodic amnesia" were related to me last night by a prominent physician attached to the'New York hospital, says a writer in the New York Telegram. The first was that of a young American woman who on awaking from a protracted sleep lost memory of all sho had before learned. Her memory had been capacious and well stored with a copious stock of ideas. Unexpectedly she fell into a profound sleep, which continued several hourtfbeyond the ordinary term On awaking she was discovered to have lost every trace of acquired knowlodge. All vestiges, both of words and things, were obliterated. By now efforts she again acquired the art of spelling, reading, writing and calculating, and gradually became acquainted with persons and objects like a being for tho first time brought into the world. In these exercises she made considerable proficiency. After a few months another fit of somnolency possessed her. On rousing from it she found herself re* stored to the state she was in before the first paroxysm, but was wholly ignorant of every event that had befallen her afterward. Tho former condition of her existence she used to call the old state and the latter the new State. In the old state she possessed fine powers of penmanship. In the new she wrote a poor, awkward hand, having had neither the time nor the means to become an oxpert

Havo Your Own Teetfi. A dentist of Moscow is reported to have discovered a method of supplying the human mouth with false toeth which will grow into the gums as firmly as natural ones. Dr. Znamensky has performed eevoral successful operations on dogs as well as human beings. The teeth are made of gutta percha, porcelain or metal. Holes are made at the root of the false tooth and also upward into the jaw. The tooth is then placed into the cavity. In & short time a soft granulated growth finds its way from the patient's jaw into the holes in the tooth this growth gradually, hardens and holds the tooth in position.

STRONG PEOPLE.

It has frequently been remarked that hcaftfiy pcupfrr those of robust physique, and possessed of great physical strength, are much sicker when they are sick than delicate people and invalids. The reason is that a robust person neglects himself until his physical energies are utterly exhausted before he attempts to obtain relief while a constitutional invalid takes care of himself at the first attack of disease, and thus lives longer than his far stronger brother. The secret of living is to look after the first symptoms. When you take cold get a bottle of Reid's German Cough and Kidney Cure and you will soon get well. It is the neglect of these things that leads to danger.

A cold in the spring is more dangerous than in winter because it is apt to linger all summer. It contains 110 poison. For sale by all druggists, 25 and 50 cents a bottle.
