Yesterday evening the reporter no.
ticed ut the stationery establishment
of Reed Il Lathrop, on Main street,
10. of paper barrels and boxes which
for simplicity Of construction and du-
rability are as novel as they are useful.
The straw Of which they are made is
so completely compressed as to render
II as hard and even more substantial
than wood itself, while at the same
time they are pliable and less liable to
burst. For shipping flour. grain or
any substance, they are splendid, while
quite an item Is saved in the way
Of freights. They are already ex.
tensively used In the eastern states by
flour, tobacco and other merchants for
the packing and transportation of
goods. Mr.. +. A. Davis, of Belolt,
Michigan, who has factory at chat
place, speaks Of establishing a branch
here, and THE HERALD recommends
II as an enterprise that can not but
win.

The Daily News Veran- kaleh spe-
cial says: "Kars was captured by
about fifteen thousand Russians, who
climbed the steep rocks, ramparts and
walls, and stormed an equal number OF
desperately lighting Turks In head
long flight over their bitches and
parapets, compelling them to die OF
surrender. The principal attack was
made on the southern forts. General
Lozeron commanded the right wing,
consisting of the fortleth division, and
attacked Haliz pasha, fort browning
u steep rocky height. General Count
Grabbe, with a regiment of the thirty
ninth division, assailed the centre,
the Kahulie, Tabia, Lurvarn, Tabia,
three towers and the citadel. Arda-
hams brigade and another regiment
of Nose ow Rrenidiers, under Generals
Roop and Kewaroif, forming the left
wing, assaulted fort Ingles ON the
north. The attack began in the CEN
tire, at $3.50 o'clock Saturday evening,
when Count Grabbe led his brig
AIDE against the Kahule redoubt,
and himself fell dead at the
first onset, pierced by a bullet. Cap
tain Kwodemekie, of The Thirty-ninth
regiment, was the first to enter the re-
doubt at eleven O'Clock at night. His
sword was cut clean out of his hand,
and his clothes were pierced with bay
enet thrusts. The redoubt surrendered
early in the morning, and then the
three towers simultaneously with the
capture of the Kahulle redoubt. The
citadel, Fort Luivarri and Fort Hafiz
Pasha were carried by assault by day
light on Sunday morning. General
Lazarefi's troops had made progress az
far as the capture of Fort Karodah.
The other forts, especially the Arab
Tabia on the east, and Takmah Tabia
on the west, maintained a stubborn
resistance until eight o'clock, when
all the garrison which could escape,
fled toward Erzeroum, but these were
subsequently overtoken by the dra-
goons and Cossacks, and brought back
prisoners.

act two years later. The legislature

defendant In error rendered such BILLS.
In this case objection was taken
that the commissioner was entitled
to payment In coin or legal tender,

retrospective in its action. Admitting
the retrospective character OF the legis-
