G. A. Z. MATTERS.
Number of Posts Declared Disbanded
The Most Successful Posts.

By order of Gen. David N. Foster, department
several important changes have been made
among the posts of the order in this State.
Posts located at the following places have been
dropped from the rolls and declared disbanded
well, Remington, Harveysburg, Carbon, Browns
town. San Jacinto Cortland Coatesville Vipen,
Lake, Linton, Alexandria, Hagerstown, Tam
pico, Roam, Fontanet, Augusta, Montpelier,
Winslow, Union. Morristown, Ssottsburg Spur
geon, Ireland, La Fontaine. Huron, Corydon,
Losantville, Rono, DeMotte, Putnamville
In declaring these posts disbanded Commander
Foster says:
The department commander believes these
defunct posts ought not longer to be permitted
to sap the strength of our organization. Their
numbers and names will continue to BIZ borne
upon the roster of the department, and at any
time they may wish to reorganize they can do
so, with the consent of the department com
mander Any probability that this may ever be
done ought not, however, to induce the mem ber-
ship Of these disbanded posts to postpone the
duty of Immediately applying to department
headquarters for transfer cards, that they may
enter other posts and thus renew their connec-
ton with their former comrades. With the cut
ting off of the heretofore estimated and largely
fictitious mem ership of these thirty one posts
the department of Indiana reaches 'hard pa n
and, hereafter, its reported membership will be
actual and not estimated.
The posts making the largest net gains during
the second quarter Of the current year are here
by given.

Fine Brick.

Mes.rs Mcintyre & Van Tromp are
preparing to burn brick. They have
large kilns built This firm have an
improved brick machine capable of
turning out 20, 900 brick per day, but
they do not use the machine to this ca
pacity.. The mode of making and
handling brick is quite interesting.
After the brick are turned from the
machine they are placed on pellets
and laid on shelves under sheds. Under
this cover they dry slowly, and become
hard with no cracks or warps like brick
dried exposed to the sun. With the
machine brick making has attained a
high state of perfection. 1t is claimed
that machine made brick are harder
and heavier than handmade brick, the
pressure of the machine being greater
than the hand mould. The material is
ground finer and the brick is not
porous. The drying sheds of Messrs
Mcintyre & Van Tromp hold about
$4,000 brick. They use the best clay
to be found. They will manufacture
this season about 100000. Next year
they will engage in brick making quite
extensively, and will meet all demands
for brick.

Kansas Silk.

Mr.. |. Homer, of Emporia, was in
the city yesterday. He is interested
in silk culture, and brought with him
some very fine specimens of Kansas
silk. He says is has been proved
beyond doubt that Kansas is better
adapted in every way to the culture of
silk than any other state and says that
several hundred ladies in the state arc
at the present time engaged in this
business. The only trouble is there i,
no market near at hand for their pro-
ducts, but in recent communications
with the commissioners of agriculture
and other government officers, Mr..
Horner has been informed that if it
can possibly be done, the government
will establish a reel in some part of the
state. The government has already
established reels in Philadelphia, New
Orleans and San Francisco, but these
points are too far distant from Kansas.
Mr.. Horner thinks that if Kansas will
wake up and take hold Of this matter,
there is glorious future in store for
her. The silk grown in this state is of
the finest quality, and is thus highly
spoken of by foreign silk growers. Mr.
Hornsr called upon the state officers
