HOLLAND WILL EXHIBIT.
Influential Netherlander Interest

-riitat l.tu Kipertsrt to
ilr Made.
Tlo active participation of the king
dom or Holland at tnc world s l;nr is
now an assured fact, lion. Walker
Fearn, chief of the ftepartnient of for
eign affairs, has received a letter from
lion. Samuel Thayer on the suhjeet
from the lepiition of the Pnitcd States at
The Uacnie. in which the authorities of
the I'olumhian exposition art informed
that a royal order appeared in the of
iicial (ia.ette. of June 2:5. announcing
the appointment of the follow-in; iitm
mission as representative of the Nether
lands ffoveriimcut at the Cohimhian ex
position: M. Meis, 11. Ileldrinj.', (J. M.
lloissevain, Mr. Svan fitters, (1. Ilirk
norr, jr. l nese are all men ot prom-
ineuee and actively interested in the
success of the exposition. An early
meeting of the commissioners will bt
held at the I'uitcd States legation.
The Netherlands povernment has de
clined for years all invitations of the
character from other nations, even
f rom such near deifrhbors as France and
ltcltfium, and only throuph the in
fluence of persistent pressure was Hol
land finally brought to concede an ex
hibition to the Columbian .world's fair.
Throuirh the cooperation of an or
ganization composed of a number of in
fluential people in Amsterdam and
other parts of the kingdom a consider
able sum of money ha-sbcen raised to be
used in the construction of a special
htuMiutf at the fair, to be built in
various styles of architecture, ancient
and modern. The exhibit to be made
at the Holland headquarters will be
characteristically Dutch, and it is the
intention to illustrate the life and sur
rounding of the Dutch people. It is
intended, if possible, to create a canal
running through the center of the space
allotted, w it h ample scope for exhibits
on either side, and in connection there
with a Dutch dairy showing their
process of butter and cheescmakinjf,
together w ith rare specimens of Dutch
cattle, etc. The Holland commission
will make application f-r the necessary
space to make this exhibit, and it is
ouite likely that the consul of the
Netherlands government ut Chicago
and one other commissioner may be
delegated to act for the royal commis
sion in this matter. hile sme mem
Wrs of the commission are designated
a.- the committee and others commis
sions, they are all of royal appoint
ment and have practically the same
function, though the chief work of the
committee will be in the Netherlands.
Nearly all the leading industries in the
kingdom of" Holland have already
pledged their active cooperation in the
development and maintenance of an
adequate representation at Chicago.
EXHIBIT OF EAST INDIA.
It rreinlM to Ha m Large and Attractive
Itpsplisy.
The East Indian exhibit is likely to
develop into a larg-e and attractive dis
play. I'nited States Consul General
Ballantine at Ilombay, in a recent com
munication to Director General Davis,
shows that interest in the world's fair
is incoming- very general in the large
cities and at some of the native courts
of India. The native princes as well
as opulent merchants and manufactur
ers are now fully awakened to the im
portance of a representation.
Consul (ieneral Itallautine paid an of
licial visit to the court of his highness
the guieowar or maharajah of Itaroda.
The guicowar of Haroda is the most im
portant prince in western India. After
showing Consul General Hallantine
every attention the prince confirmed his
promise of assistance given in a pre
vious interview by ott'ictally instructing
his prime minister to give every assur
ance of assistance, and added that ho
would get an exhibit from his principal
ity representing a value of certainly
uot less than ten thousand rupees and
probably much more. The guioowar
added that he would possibly make this
much lar;rer and more extensive. His
action iu this regard is most likely to
luduce other native princes to follow it.
The guicowar's brother, his excellency
Sumgatra, has already promised to visit
Chicago. With a large retinue of offi
cers ami attendants he contemplates I
visiting Kugland next year. The visit !

the exposition. A Hindoo gentle
man is making arrangements for tw
hundred of his countrymen to visit the
fair.
THE MUSHROOM BULLET.
A rrojertlle That Will Disable Men
Kather Thau Kill Them.
Gen. Tweedie has designed a bullet
w hich is thought highly of by English
ordnance experts, and is in their opin
ion something that will meet a long-felt
want, says the New York Times.
The new small -tore bullet has Wen
found to puss through living animals in
less sensitive parts without their In-ing
aware that they have been struck at all.
This Is due to the eonibi nation of high
velocity and small diameter, lu war
the object is to disable men, and thus is
often more effectually fulfilled by
wounding than by killing, tiecau.se a
wounded man at the moment requires
one or two men to look after him. while
l lie dead man is for the time let alone.
If the wound, however, is one that
hardly makes, its existence known the
immediate obj.i-t may uot ! answered
A savage especially would despise a
wound of that character. If the bullet
strikes hone the effect is different, be
cause lione splinters terribly under a
blow at a. high velocity, but for what
are called flesh wounds the small Imre
is "nowhere."
Gen. Tweedie's bullet has a mantlet
or case, which is closed at the base and
oH-n at the head, the mantlet ending
about half way In-tween the shoulder
and the point. The result is that on
striking the head spread or "mush
rooms" so as to make the bullet, after
having the advantage of a small diam
eter iu flight, to Ixvome on impact
practically one of large bore, the main
difference being that the energy con
sists more in velocity and less in
weight than was the ease in an old
large-bore ball. It is said also to be
much more efficient against thin iron
or steel plate for the same reason
namely, that it makes a much larger
hole and acts particularly well in
oblique impact. f course it will be
clearly understood that this is only in
cases in which the plate is outmatched
by the bullet. As the chief objectiou
to the titillet is that it will not do the
work of an armor-piercing projectile,
the objection can stand, says a prom
inent ordnance authority, and, as the
Twnedie bullet possesses almost all of
the qualities required, it seems very
probable that extensive experiments
will be made to prove its superiority to
svlbc-r siuaJJ aria bullet Iu um tip-day.'

It is (.'encrally Hlievel by the outsid
vvorhl that the Texan carries his life in
his hip pocket. This is a mistake, says
a letter to the Thiladclphia North
American. Our m.st facile shooters
carry their revolvers just under the left
arm. The real artist knows the minute
differences in slnvtinjf "on the rise"
and "on the drop." The technique mas
tered, the cause for action claims atten
tion. An3 assault upon the fair name
of woman is almost certain to ha fol
lowed by sudden death. For such causes
as this one must shoot. Imputations
upon one's veracity or honesty, family
feuds, quarrels and drunken brawls
cause the remainder of the homicides.
For such causes as these one may shoot.
Men shoot each other in Texas on
lesser ground than this, nut they no not
shoot on such slight provocation as the
tenderfoot has lnen led to believe.
They do not shoot visitors for wearing

I have know n several ua.-n in Texas

PIGEONS FOR NAVAL USE.

1 he I'nited States practice ship Con
stellation, whieh recently sailed on the
calef," summer voyafre. had alwiatsl a
nunil-er of hominjr pigeons, to Ih umsI
as means of communieation Irtvvei-u
the ship and points ashore. The birds
will Ik' liWratM at intervals and are
expected t l.rjnfrotlieial messapes from
the practice vessel to tlie- naval acade
my, her a loft or cote has reccntlv
leen estahlishcd. says the ltaltimore
Sun.
If the e.lerinient should prove suc
cessful tin (.'oveniincnt would prol
ahly lind it profitahle to the navy to
ci;eoi:rai,v t!ie h.iuirif piee"n service
with the small appropriatiou iuelel to
carry out the plans of the projectors of
the enterprise. At present the facilities
for training l.irds at the uavai academy
are limited, no e-overuniciit appropria
tion 1h!ii available.
At Fortress Monroe, the first stopping
p!a'-e . if 1 'i shij. it is istssil.le several

tion from the cruisiu-f (.--rounds. The
heaihpiarters at Washington will also
Im posted of the wherealiouts of tho
vessel throuyh wiii'.s.l nies-wutrers from
that city.
A lot of the birds to accompany the
ship will no doubt le sufliciently
trained to.vartl the clos. of the voyafre
to le Useful in conveying messatfes
ashore.
The practicability of the homini?
pigeon s.rv'ue has lnt-n satisf;u-torily
tested by coiniiiiinications with the
shi;s of war unehonsi off Annapolis
and from vessels plyintf ln-twecn Dalti
nior, Annapolis and other points. If
this veriinlits should be suecssf ul
tii.y will dent-. -list rate the possibility of
a vi-sscl eruisinif aloiif the coast at a
distance of over one hundred miles.
here no other means t.f cominunieit
ti n would Ik ps.sible. to be kept in
constant intercourse with the shore.
This prompt service, it is claimed,
would 1- a .Teat advantage to the jf.v
criimetit. The exjKrimenti will lie con
tinu.sl dariiivr the entire cruise tit the
ship and will le watched with unusual
interest.
