The objection is raised to the twenty -four
o'clock system that while it has its special
uses, the human eye, which can tell twelve
marks made round q circular space one
from the other at q single glance, without
reading or counting them, cannot do SO with
twenty-four marks, and that in looking at a
clock of which the short hand went round
only once in the twenty-four hours it would
be necessary to find out at what figures the
hands stood either by reading the figures or
counting from the nearest multiple of six.

to allow the Republicans to elect only two

have majority on joint ballot, in the
General Assembly, of about fifty An in
genious reconstruction of the Legislative dis
tricts will give the Democrats one hundred
and three senators and representatives, and
their opponents only forty-seyen.t This
would ensure the election of Democrat to
the United States Senate, two years hence,
in place of Harrison, Republican. This kind
of thing will not pay in the long run.

there had been collisions between the

says, 10 have their origin among the en-

the rules or TO embarass the commission.

WASHINGTON, June T. Secretary

shire at Newport theatre.
and practically annulling their
engagement, finds no special law on the
subject Of musicians taking employment
outside of that covered by their enlist
ment. The custom permitting 1t finds
universal favor, and the compensation
provided by tho government Is based
somewhat upon the suppositiOn that
enlisted musicians win supplement their
government pay from private employ
ment, but in these cases there is the
universal rule that the government shall
not enter into competition with private
individuals unfairly. This has
become the subject of general
army order to the effect that:
"The secretary of war has discouraged
the employment ofregimental bands for
purposes not connected with their du.
ties In tho military service, and holds
that they should not be brought into
competition with local bands" In the
naval service the same rule should pre-
vail, at least to the extent of preventing
unfair competition between the bands
supported by the government and those
supported by private individuals en-
gagged IN tho same business.
