to their valor. But to put an end,
once for all, to the atrocities with
which my colleagues are charged,
this is what l propose tOdo." Then,
asking for pen, ink and paper, 0s-
man Pasha wrote to Reouf Pasha
in these words: "Ferik! Gene
raj Skobeleff informs me that
our troops commit acts Of cruelty
upon the Russian wounded. |
must remind you that such acts
are contrary to all sentiments Of
humanity, to all international laws,
and especially to the Geneva con-
yention, by which we are bound in
common with the other States Of
Europe. | recommend you, there
fore, to take immediate measures
for putting an end to all kinds of
atrocities. The letter, says the
correspondent, contained only the
above words, without any of the
usual formulas Of politeness and
without any Oriental compliments.
BY way of signiture 0sman Pasha
put his seal upon it. lie then
handed the letter to Gen. Skobeleff,
saying to him: "Find an opportu-
nifty of conveying this letter to
Reouf Pasha, and | am convinced
that all these atrocities will cease"

the army now. To the civilian it
may seem that the article then will
be the more easily enforced. The
general approves the present regu-
lation which prohibits gambling by
a disbursing agent. Is this consis-
tent or inconsistent with his theory
of securing morality by "thought
and association +" rather than by
claw ?" Can or cannot a disburs-
ing agent by thinking and associat-
ing restrain himself from using the
public money with which those bets
on horse races and other things
which the general seems to believe
to be as inevitable as the process Of
nature Z?
That this subject is not free from
difficulty is shown by a curious re-
ported regulation Of the British
army, which enjoins upon a COM
manding officer Z" to discountenance
any disposition in his officers to
play at any game at high stakes"
What are "high stakes i'm the
British army or elsewhere? What

or restraint would satisfy the mild
requirement of discountenancing /?

OsInan PaEha's Atrocities,

In chronicling a conversation of
0sman Pasha with various Russian
officers, the correspondent of the
Russian Government Messenger
says that the Turkish commander
spoke us follows, when some one
brought forward the subject of
Turkish cruoltieS at Sbipka and
Teliohe;

RUBBER BALLS.
The Current Process Of Making
Those PI1ythingS.

-
Those PI1ythinEs.
The process of making the hollow
rubber balls used by children, for
playthings is quite curious, aud may
be interesting to those not familiar
with it. A Holyoke writer thus
describes it. The upper room of
the mill is prepared to push this
branch of the business for few
months, and it will probably turn
out some 10000 dozen of these balls
between January and June. These
balls have a solil surface, are made
by different process from that of
making the soft rubber balls which
are perforated by an opening, and
Of course are much more firm, du-
rable and elastic. The sheets of
rubber prepared for the balls are cut
into strips Of double convex shape.
The edges of the strips are moist
ened with a preparation of rubber
and naphtha, by which they are
joined firmly together, three Of the
strips being used for one ball.
This part Of the work is done by
girls, and a skillrul girl can earn
about S1.5O per day. When the
strips are joined together, the ball
is very nearly the shape of Brazil
nut. Before the last opening is
closed, small quantity of carbo-
nate of ammonia is put inside,
which when subjected to strong
heat will make the rubber expand
and Gil the ball mold. The open
ing is then closed with the adhesive
mixture, and it is placed in an iron
mold of the shape of the ball de-
sired. The molds are packed into
frames in which they are subjected
to the heat Of the vulcanizer.
They are kept in place in the
frame by iron rods along the side,
aud when the frame is full, iron
plates at the end are screwed down
tightly upon the molds to keep
them in place. These iron plates
are three-iourths Of an inch thick,
and so strong is the expansive force
Of the rubber in the molds that
they have bent this thick iron into
curve. If one of the molds should
work out of place while vulcaniza.
tion is in process, the molds will
all fly out with a noise like the re.
port Of dozen pistols, and the
work is spoiled. The action of the
heat does the rest. When the
molds are opened, they contain the
perfect round balls with no mark
of the places where the pieces were
joined. The slight ridge made by
the mold is ground off by a stone
used for the purpose, and the ball
is done. This is but one process of
rubber work. Besides the hollow
balls are made solid balls of rub

There Is o difference of opinion
between the senate committee ON
military affairs and General Sher-
man in regard to the prohibition OF
gambling in the army, "Good
morals" the general says, "are the
result of thought and association,
not Of law" There isa measure of
truth in thisv-the samp Sogtof truth
which affects the question of the
total prohibition or the regulation
of the sale of Intoxicating drinks.
