Siege guns built of wire are the newest
description OF ordnance for the national
service. \ very tough steel wire is used,
having breaking strength of 100 tons to
the square inch. which is wound over a steel
tube as tape may be wound on reel, be-
ing frequently fastened OF to secure its
cohesion, and so neatly put together as to
look precisely like solid metal. An eXper-
mental no witzer has been made upon this
principle, and passed a satisfactory proof at
the royal arsenal. 1t has caliber of 10
inches, but wei CHS only about 20 cwt. In
its trial this hOwitZer threw shell of $50
pounds with a charge of IS pounds, and at
tanned 4 velocity of l. 200 feet per second--a
result which may be compared with two
guns of a similar weight which are at
present in the service. One of these is the
eighteen-inch hOvitZer, which fires a shell
of just half the weight---namely, $50 pounds
with velocity of $50 feet, and the other
is the 100 gun of Go calibeT. which, with
its light shot of 100 pounds, manages to
reach q velocity of 1890 feet per second.
The trial weapon seems in no way impaired
by the strain to which it has been sub

My yacht was the pride of the fleet,
And for style. though / say it, who shouldn't
My sailor toys couldn't be beat.
When we met she was charmingly gracious,
Arm in arm with the Commodore;
''Why, didn't know you were sailor,
She said, 'swhen met you before"
Then the Commodore patted my shoulder

THIS HEART Is THINE.

This heart is thine for veal or woe,
And through each stage OF life below
Yon twinkling stars that shine so bright
To thee pledge my love tonight
Ny life is blended so with thine.
Thy every wish shall seem as minel
Our lives are one, our pulses beat
Together, synchronOus. and sweet
The confidence each may repose
In each; what one the other knows.
And thus our every hope and Joy
is shared by both; with no alloy.
No jealous fears TO soil or rust:
And, loving thus, no base distrust

To SOW the seeds OF discord therei
Thy love, know, dear girl. is mine,
And this, my heart, is wholly thinel

was begun in the tenth century and contains
a font which was the product of the Nurem-

which King Henzeslas of Bohemia was
christened in 1861. The most remarkable
object, however, is a Sepulchre of st. Sebal-
dus, which stands in the center of the east
em choir. 1t ranks with the tabernacle of
Adam Kraft in st. LorenZ, as a masterpiece
of German art, and was the work of Peter

and has four dolphins at the corners. Above
the figures Of the twelve apostles are the
fathers of the church, the whole surmounted
by figure of the infant Christ holding

which the entire structure, it is said. can be
taken apart. if it is ever necessary, and put
together again. There are commemorative
windows in this church painted by Hirsch-

what's Good Beer.

Genuine lager beer" said leading
brewer yesterday, should be brewed in
the winter and sold and drunk in the sum-
mer. If it is kept on hand six months it
becomes a palatable and nutritious beverage.
Beer that is brewed one week, placed in the
iee-house and sold the next is not a proper
drink. The small brewers sell the best
beer. The large breweries turn ont good
quality of goods, but they put it ON the
market too soon after it is made''

tabernacle of Adam Kraft 1t is wonder
full sculptured structure, rising siXty-iive
feet and representing the scenes of the Pas
sion, and terminates in graceful half
wreath of flowers in stone, which bend over
like shepherds crook. The idea embodied
is that the Office of shepherd is the crown of
the work of salvation, and the monumental
work is carried on the shoulders of the mas
ter workman, Adam Kraft, and his two as
SistantS, who form bent figures at the base,
the master carrying hammer and chiSel.
The work was contracted for i'm 1893, to be
finished in three years at a cost of not more
than 700 tiOrins-abOut $500 tO-day-a
form not being worth more than 40 cents.
But the work extended over more than three
years, and 20 forms more were allowed
about $3.50 for this masterpiece. The seven
windows of the choir are considered the
best examples of Nuremberg glass painting,
one of them bearing the monogram of Hans
Culmbach, a pupil OF Albrecht Durer.
There are also

The design was by Prof Wanderer and the
painting by II. Klaus of Nuremburg. There
is another window designed and executed
by the same artists, which contains as cen
trail design the Triune Deity, with Lutheran
and Melaucthon as side figures. Fourteenth

We talk much of the dignity of labor in
America, but nowhere is it more despised
than in our large cities. Labor was truly
dignified when it was well taught, well done
and highly honored. The old guilds which
represented labor were among the richest,
most powerful and influential of corpora
tions, and the remains of the halls and fur
niture are as rich as any

The most famous churches in Nuremberg
are the st. Sebaldus and the st. LorenZ (St.

Many times they are sent as guides to an
