Foreign Naval Cadet Who Is Making His
Mark at Annapolis.


WASHINGTON Dec. 31.-President Barrios of
Venezuela, recently requested permission to
enter his son, at his own expense, for course of
study at West Point. Senior Zavalla, of Mica
ragua desired similar privilege for his son, and
forwarded a request accordingly through Minis
ter Phelps. Secretary Frelnghuysen, to whom
both communications were addressed, submitted
them to the Secretary of War for decision. In
reply the latter informed the Secretary of State
that one of the rules of West Point requires all
students entered to subscribe their oath of al
legiance to the United States and a special pro-
vision of Congress would be necessary for the
sons OF the gentlemen named to obtain admission
to the academy. Subsequently Senor Zavalla
finding that such restriction was imposed
upon cadets of the Naval Academy, decided to
enter his son there, and he is said to be one of
the most promising students.

How Watch Cases are MddS.

Tho many great Improvements intro
dnced in the manufacture Of tho Jas. Besf
Gold Watch Case, have led 10 similar inn
provemcnts in the making Of silver cases.
Under the old methods, each part Of
silver case was made Of several pieces Of
metal soldered together, requiring . great
amount Of cutting and soldering. which
soNened the metal and gave it tho pliability
of lead rather than the elasticity Of silver.
Under the improved methods, each part
fthe keystone Silver Watch Case Is made
Of one solid piece Of metal hammered into
shape. The advantages are readily appar-
ent, for every ono knows that hammering
harslcns the metal while soldering soiacns It.
To test the superiority Of the Keystone
Silver Watch Case, take one Of Oh. weight
press 1t squarely in the center when closed,
and it will not give, while case Of sano
weight Of any other make will give enough
tobreak the crystal. The keystone Silver
Watch Case is made only with silver oap
and gold joints.
