TJNOLE SAM'S BIO GUN.
Lament Onnnon in the World to be Placed
in Now York Harbor.
Will Take Thrco Yean lo Make -Will Weigh
About Sevcnly-flvi Tone and be Filly Feet
in Length A Small Fortune Will be Ex
pended at Every Shot.
In a few j cars the United States
will own one of the biggest guns in the
world. It is to be 16 inches in diam
eter on the inside and will shoot a
projectile larger than the body of a
good sized man and weighing over
1,500 pounds.
At the war department bids were
opened for furnishing the mount and
the steel forgings necessary before the
gun itself can be built. Some idea of
the size of this gun can be gained
when It is known that it will take
three years of steady work to make it.
It will cost a small fortune and will
consume 800 pounds of powder at a
Ongle shot.
The building of this monster gun is
largely an experiment. Ever since
1886 the board which has charge ol
fortifications and coast defenses has
urged Congress to set aside enough
money for building a 16 inch gun.
Several foreign countries have such J
guns, both for use in coast defenses
and aboard vessels of war. Though
there has been no opportunity to test
them in active warfare, it is claimed
that, notwithstanding their enormous
size and the force of their recoil when
discharged, the result of their work
will fully warrant their cost and the
necessary danger connected with their
use. A 16 inch gun, when discharged,
is not only dangerous at the muzzle
but at the breech, for the recoil, if not
properly provided for, might sink the
ship, gun and all.
The United States government does
not intend to use this big gun aboard
ship, bur it will be placed on one of
the fortifications in New York harbor.
General Flagler, the chief of ordnance
of the army, said that one well direct
ed shot from the 16 inch gun would
destroy or stop any vessel known at
the present time. He says one such
gun in New York harbor would do
more good in case of war than a dozen
guns of 12 or 13 inches in si.:c, the
largost now in use by this government
on land or sea. The more conserva
tive officers of the war department
have recommended until recently the
building ot more 1 2 incli guns, but it
has been demonstrated within the last
year that a 1 2 inch projectile will not
penetrrte the armor now used on war
ships unless the shot is especially
favorable.
The argument for the 12 inch gun
has been that if one shot at a hostile
warship did not do the work, more
shots would, and that the largest ves
sel in the world could not stand a
dozen shots from a 12 inch gun.
General Flagler meets this argument
by saying that while the 12 inch guns
of the United States were pounding
away at a foreign ship the guns on
Loard the vessel would not be idle,
and he thinks it wise, therefore to have
a gun big enough to do the work
quickly.
The big gun will weigh about 75
tons and will be about 50 feet long in
the clear, the inside bore or barrel
being about 40 feet in length. Two
miles will be a short distance for its
projectiles to reach, and even at that
distance they will be skipping along
at a speed of 2,000 feet every second.
The destruct'on that would be wrought
by 1,500 pounds of hardened steel,
shaped like a minie ball, going at the
highest speed, can scarcely be im
agined. Chicago Times-Herald.
A valued exchange explains the po
sition o( a newspaper as follows: Sup
pose that a farmer raises 1,000 bushels
of wheat a year, and also sells this to
1,000 persons in all parts of the
country, a great portion of them say
ing) "I will hand you a do"ar in a
short time." The farmer does not
want to be small and says, "all right!"
Soon the 1,000 bushels a.e gone, and
lie has nothing to show for it, and he
'ien realizes that he has fooled away
his whole crop and its value is due in
a thousand little driblets, consequent
ly he is seriously embarrassed in busi
ness because his debtors each owing
l'-'m one dollar, treat it as a small
matter, and think it would not help
much. Continue this kind of a busi
ness year in and year out, as the pub
lisher does, how long will he stand it ?
A moment's thought would convince
anyone that an editor has cause for
persistent dunning.

Lawjor Hired by the Day.
The Contract Wat For One Year and Ex
pired Promptly.
With the name of Rufus Lockwood
is recalled one of the most extraordi
nary geniuses that the State of Cali
fornia ever produced. It is many
years now since I.ockwood held sway
in the courts of San Francisco, lie
was in his day perhaps the best lawyer
in the State, and it was only because
of utter indifference to pecuniary
matters that he did not leave a large
fortune behind him, says the San
Francisco Bulletin.
Lockwood went at one time to
II orace Hawkes, a very distinguished
lawyer, and the author of the consoli
dation act which is now m force.
Hawcs had a reputation for close
figuring, and Lockwood knew it. He
said: "Mr. Hawcs, I'll hire myself to
you for one year from date at a salary
of $25 a day, payable every night."
"All right," said Hawcs, delighted
to engage the services of the bright
est mind in the State at so low a figure
for the salary was not a great one
in those days and the bargain was
sealed. It was 11 o'clock in the morn
ing. But from that time on. it is said.
Hawes never missed an opportunity
of reminding Lockwood of his bond
age. He would say, in the presence
of others, "Lockwood, 50 fetch me
that book ;" "Lockwood do this" or
"that," etc. Lockwood never said a
word, but did as he was bidden, and
enjoyed his triumph.
Finally it came to the day when the
day when the year's engagement was
terminated. There was a most im
portant law suit on hand, which Lock
wood had made a careful study of ;
no one in the State could possibly
have handled it as he did. Well, on
the day in question Lockwood stood
in court, an array ot law books in
front of him, and expounded his views
in masterly fashion. -Suddci'V he
looked up at the clock r.nd saw that
it was the hour of 11. Closing the
book from which he was quoting, he
turned to Hawes, who was sittmg be
side him, and said : "Mr. Hawes, a
year ago at this hour I contracted to
work for you for one year. My time
is up, the contract is cancelled and I
am going."
Thus did he repay his master for
the humilation heaped upon him.
Hawes was in the greatest consterna
tion ; he could not possibly take up
the thread of the case where Lock
wood had left it, and he begged and
implored him to proceed. But Lock
wood remembered, a. d he turned a
deaf ear to all his persuasions. He
kept his word ; the contract had ex
pired. How's ThiB?

Diphtherotio Germs.
A case of the preservation of the
diphtheretic germs for over three
years, in a bed lounge, is related by
the Pittsburg Dispatch. The fact
that these germs will live indefinitely
in clothing and carpets without losing
their infectious quality has long been
known to physicians. It is for this
reason that all cases of such contagi
ous diseases should be isolated in city
hospitals for the purpose. But pend
ing necessary legislation and provi
sions for such isolation, careful disin
fection of all premises where such dis
eases have been, under supervision of
a physician or other competent per
son, will do much to prevent the
spread of the diseases. Burning small
quantities of sulphur in the sick room
at intervals is a good measure to pre
vent lodgment of germs in the furn
ishings and will be sanctioned by most
physicians as an aid to treatment of
the patient.

the sleeves are finished with three
flounces of the cloth. Each flounce Is
edged with a tiny frill of chiffon. The
celnture Is of satin handsomely trim

they are wrinkled for their full length.
They are finished with a full puff at

A Raines Law for This State-
The State Liquor League will make
an aggressive campaign before the
Legislature at the coming session, and
endeavor to make scvcial changes in
the Jlrooks law. The main point for
which they will contend will be an
amendment to the license law, which
will permit hotel keepers to serve
drinks to their guests on Sunday.
Tin's is one of the features of the
Raines law governing the sale of
liquor in New York, and one which
the .State Liquor League for several
years has maintained should be in the
Pennsylvania statutes.
Maud Midler on a summer night
went out on her bike in the bright
moonlight. She pedaled around from
six to ten on a trip that would fag the
strongest men, but her heart was
light", and her spirits gay, for it wasn't
work, 'twas nothing but play. Next
morning, however, she'd a pain in her
head, she was all played out and stay
ed in bed, while her mother hustled
in the kitchen below not to ride a
wheel, but to make things go. Though
the morning was hot and she worked
by the fire, she did not collapse with
a punctured tire. Alas for the girl
and the woman, sec ! things are not
as they used to be.
