aud that is tho mst.er Of locality IN

North Texas, and Dallas, have already

But this should DO an srgu-

for such a post, and should weigh no
heavier with the executive than
should the locus OF plaintiff or defend
ant OF suit before that high tribunal
But assume otherwise and what do We
find? Already ono judge, WILLIE, is

boyhood and his family name long
since concilisted the confidence and
fixed the regard which later raan-
hood has solidified into tho strongest

to the full.
In the question Of locality again let
GOVERNOR IRELAND recall the case OF
that same JUDGE MARSHALL. Down
to the day OF his appointment out OF
the cabinet by PRESIDENT ADAMS, in
1901, he had held no Judicial position
whatever, and though e good minister
abroad, a fair congressman, and not
an extraordinary secretary of state
even at As years OF ago, his appoint
ment az chief justice was violently OPP
posed by Mr.. ADAMS Now England
ssction on tho ground Of "the gentle-
man being from Virginia and his IN
experience" Despite protestation,
the Executive selected the.man and not
the locality; and the country will ever
owe him debt Of gratitude for the inn
partially. And all this too in violation
of the practice that had previously OBJ
tanned of promotion by priority on the
bench. The story ofGENERAL WASH
1NGToN's appointment as against
GATES, is almost identical in the oppo-
sition because Of locality. Let COVER

A Daily Defa1CatiOD.

The Hon. John Kelly, the head and front
OF 1ammany Hall, man of strict integ-
rlty, an indefatigable worker, early at his
ofhce, late to leave, SO burdened with bust
ness That regular meals were seldom known
by him, with mind Ia constant tension and
energies steadily trained, finally broke
down
The wonder is that he did not sooner
gave way. An honest man In all things else,
ne acted unfairly with his physical re-
sources. He was ever drawing upon this
bank without ever depositipg a collateral.
The account overdrawn the bank sus-
ponds and both are now in the hands of
medical receivers.
1t is not work that kills men. It is irreg-
ularlty OF habits and mental worry. No
man In good health frets at his work. Bye
and bye when the bank of vigor suspends,
these men will wonder how it all happened,
ana they will keep wondering until their
dying day unless, perchance, some candid
physician or interested friend viii point
out to them how by irregularity, by exces-
slYs mental effort. by constant worry and
ret, by plunging in deeper than they had a
right to go, they have produced that loss
OF nervous energy which almost invariably
expresses itself in deranged condition OF
the kidneys and liver, for it is a well-known
fact that the poison which the kidneys and
liver should remove from the blood, if left
therein, soon knocks the life out of the
strongest and most vigorous man or
woman. Daily building up of these vital
organs by 30 wonderful and highly reputed
specific as Warmers safe cure, is the only
guarantee that our business men can have
that their strength will be equal to the
labors daily put upon them.
Mr.. Kelly has nervous dyspepsia, we
learn, indicating, as we have said, a break
down of nerve force. His case should be a
warning to others who, pursuing like
course, will certainly reach a like result

Small Arms and Cartridges.
From The SATURDAY. Review. I

(From The Saturday Review.l
When attention was first directed to
the Importance of obtaining increased
rapidity of fire from small arms, one
of the most obvious expedients was
to get rid of the trouble and delay OF
measuring the powder for each dis
charge. Hence the proper weight was
made up In little paper packet, and
the soldier or sportsman went forth
provided with number of such prim-
tive cartridges instead of with O.
quantity of powder in bulk. They
had, of course, to be torn open and
their contents poured down the barrel
Of the gun, the empty paper serving
as a wad. The next step was to COM
bine the powder and ball in one car
fridge, made to fit the barrel and
properly fabricated in order to admit
of being rammed home from the muz-
zle. 1t was still necessary, however,
for the soldier to tear open the bot
tom of the cartridge with his teeth in
order that the flame of the percussion
cap might reach the powder. 1t will
be remembered how great O. part was
played in India by the violence done
to caste preiudices by compelling the
sepoys thus to put their lips to a lu-
bricating material which possibly
might have been the fat of q sacred
animal or of an unclean one. Had
they based their objections upon the
inherent nastiness OF stale and rancid
grease they would have commanded the
sympathy of all but the least fastid-
ious of Christians. The cartridge Of
those days was in every respect q
rough and inefficient article, but its
development remained impossible I'M
til the invention of breech-loaders
changed all the conditions of
the case. Henceforth, instead
Of being made to fit the barrel
loosely, the cartridge would be made
slightly larger than the bore, and the
base, misleading of being torn open be-
fore loading, became the most solid
part of the structure, and was made
to subserve several important ends.
The Americans are usually credited
with the invention of the solid drawn
cartridge as we now know it. Priority
is always difficult to fix with accuracy
when, as in this case, the ingenuity of
a. great many men in different coun-
tries is employed in perfecting a me-
chanical idea. The Americans were
the first to make and use the solid
drawn cartridges on alarge scale, but
it seems probable that the actual in
ventor was Frenchman named Ca
Zalet.

tire war. It seemed strange that Grant, al
graduate of a military academy, with hosts
of military friends, should select two civil
ians, for his constant companions and ad-
yisers. The other members of his military
family. at the time he arrived from the West,
were his brotherin-law, Gen. f. T. Dent, Col.
Parker, full-blooded Genesee Indian. his
Corresponding Secretary (afterward in
charge of the Indian Bureau), and Maj.
Dunn, aid-de-camp, row with Gen. Pope in
the Department. OF the Pacific.
Yes, | have seen Grant under fire at
Spottsylvania Court House, in Virginia, one
of our most disastrous defeats in the Wilder
ness. Gen. Grant and Gen. Meade were in
consultation under tree, near deserted
house, surrounded by their staff officers, when
solid shot from one of the enemy's batter
les passed through the tree, cutting Off sew
eral branches and causing no little conster-
nation among the staff and escort. The two
Generals sat there, however, without indica-
ton of alarm, and continued their consulta-
ton as if nothing had occurred.

A REMINIS CENCE.
How a Fault Finding Woman Was Re-
bu1xed for Her Abuse of Grant.

How Fault Finding Woman Was Re-
bul<ed for Her Abuse of Grant.
When Gen. Grant was in command at Fort
Donelson, in 1862, a number of Northern
women went down there to assist as nurses
in the hospitals. Among them was the wife
of a certain Western Senator who distin-
guishcd himself or his hostility to the great
commander when the latter was under
cloud. The woman in question was unw1ll-
ing TO put up with things as she found them
for the good of the old flag, but insisted upon
having matters revolutioniZed according to
her own ideas of propriety. The hospital
locations wanted changing; the physicians in
attendance were incompe ent; she would like
to have a carriage at her command; she
called for an orderly to do this and an orderly
to do that; the officers were remiss in their
| attention to her-in short, nothing went right
with her, but everything was wrong, and
| "abomlnably SO" at that. Grant knew this
| woman, well, having been frequently pes
| tered by her complaints and demands, and
on one OCCASION when pat fence with him had
| ceased to be q virtue, he told her plainly that
| he was not sent to Donolson to obey the be-
! heStS OF petticOats, but to command the
| army" She firtad from his presence in a
! rage, and ere long went back to her home.
To reach the latter place she took passage
aboard Of a Mississippi steamboat, command
| ed by 4 Galena man, an old river captain
/ and personal friend and great admirer of
| Gen. Grant. The first night out the skipper
was making himself agreeable to his passen-
gers in the cabin, especially the women,
| when he Glanced to remark to one OF the lat
tsr, in the presence OF the hereinbcfore
/ mentioned female, that he was a resident of
| Galena, and had lived there many years.
You say you live at GaenaE" interposed
| the SeH ators wile THAT is where that
| dirty, drUnAen Grant came from, ism t it?''
she cont nued.
Turning to the intermeddler the Captain
glGred at her a moment, and at last, in a
voice trembling with passion, he said:
MADAM, | cont know who you are, but
this DO know: that if you were a man in
stead of an apology for woman I'd knock
every tooth down your throat if you didn't
take back the lie you just uttered against
Gen. Grant: and by the Lord Harry, have
half notion 10 bank you, night though it is,
for the SANDER
There was great excitement in the cabin
for the moment, the passengers heartily sid
ing with the captain, and maIifesting their
appreciation OF the severe reprimand admin
istered by him to the Senator wife. As FIR
the latter, with red mantline her cheeks, she
skunk away to the rear of the cabin with out
deigninr to reply, and from that time until
she reached the end Of her trip she was rot
at all troubled with company. - Chicago

pepper on 4 specials train. Gen. Ingalls, late
QEartermaster General, now retired, was one
OF his classmates. Grant was then, seem
iagly a very quiet, uncommunicatiye man,
and in general appearance hardly such q
man as ] had imagined the hero Of \ icks-
burg. He was in fatigue dress when / first
saw him, and wore no insignia OF rank. He
was accompanied by Gen. RaWlins, his Chief
o4-Staf, a1terward Secretary of War, and
Col. L. s. Bowers, Adjutant General. These
two officers were members of the Twenty
first Illinois, the regiment Grant was made
Colonel Of when he entered the volunteer
service. At the time of the breaking out OF
the war Gen. RaWlius was lawyer, and was
made Adjutant and First Lieutenant of the
Iwenty-nrst Illinois at the same time Grant
was made Colonel Of it. Though he had never
had any military training, Grant, recognizing
his wonderful executive ability, kept him as
his chief adviser during the war, and. as you
know, made him Cabinet officer when he
became President. Prior % the breaking out
o. the war Col. Il. S. Bowers was clerk in a
country store and entered the Twenty first
Illinois as private. He was afterward
promoted TO Sergeant-Maior and assigned to
duty at the headquarters of the regiment
where he attracted Grants attention. and
was made Adjutant General at the same
time Grant was made Colonel. He served in
that capacity during the entire war and was
accidentally killed at West Point while attend
ing the commencement exercises at the Mill
tary Academy with Gen. Grant. He was very
small in stature, but of a genial pleasant
disposition. While serving with Grant in
