To Abolish All Armies Before 1900.
New York Mail and Express.
The International Arbitration League
hopes to induce all nations to accept ar
bitration and consent to disarmament,
and Representative Pettibone, of Ten
nessee, a member of the League, in
tends to introduce bill in Congress
next winter, authorizing the President
to invite conference to be held in
Washington in 1887, to make arrange
ments for peace congress in London
in 1890. He believes that delegates
from all civilized nations would attend
both meetings, and that the scheme of
the league can be made to abolish war
before the end of the present century.
armies of Europe is nearly $720, 1000, 600
and the average number of men with
drawn from industrial employments for
military service is about 5000 900, the
relief resulting from disarmament will
be very important, pecuniarily, to say
nothing of the cessation of the horrors
of war. Almost all national debts are
the product of war, and the campaign
against Napoleon added about $3, ,OOO,-
600, 600 to the debt of Great Britain, as
the rebellion did to the debt of the
United States; France paid $1,000, ,O0O,-
600 for the chastisement inflicted by
Germany, and the conflict of Russia
and Turkey cost $760,00O,0O0, besides
100000 lives, although it lasted hardly
more than six months.
Gen. Grant said, in letter to the
Peace Convention held in Philadelphia,
in 1888: "My views on the subject of
peace arbitration in the settlement of
international differences, instead of the
sword, have not changed; but my hope
of the speedy accomplishment of the
desired result has diminished" AS the
statistics show that the standing arm
les of Europe have increased about
sixty per cent. in fifty years, it must be
confessed that the prospect of disarma-
ment does not seem encouraging. Agi-
tation is certainly requisite to the
achievement, and therefore the meet
ings in Washington two years hence,
and in London three years later, may
effect much good. The enlightenment
of the people of the whole world upon
this subject must ultimately create an
irresistible demand for the substitution
of arbitration for war, and before the
year 1900 the folly of maintaining vast
armies ought to be made evident to the
nations of Europe, as it was to this ma
ton at the very beginning.

Boiling Water in a Sheet Of Paper

In Nature are given experiments for
boiling water and melting lead on a
piece of paper
Take piece OF paper and fold it up.
as school boys do, into a square box
without lid, Hang this up to walk
ing stick by four threads, and support
the stick on books or other convenient
props. Then lamp or taper must be
placed under this dainty caldron. In a
few moments the water will boil.
The only fear is lest the threads should
catch fire and let the water spill into the
lamp and over the table. The fame
must therefore not be too large. The
paper docs not burn, because it is wet
and even If it resisted the wet it would
not be burned through because the heat
impaired to it one side by the fame
would be very rapidly conducted away
by the other,
Another experiment Of similar ma
turc, but perhaps even more striking, is
as follows: Twist up the edges Of a
common playing card or other bit Of
card board SO as to fashion it into light
tray On this tray place layer of
small shot or bits of lead and heat it
over the fame Of lamp. The lead
will melt but the card will not burn. 1t
may be charrcd little around the edge
but Immediately below the lead it will
not be burned, for here again the lead
conducts off the heat one side as fast as
il is supplied on tho other.

An Anecdote Of General Bragg

have heard in the old army an anec-
dote told characteristics Of Bragg. On
one occasion. when stationed at post
Of several companies commanded by
field officer, he was himself commanding
one Of tho companies and at the same time
acting post quartermastor and commits
sary. lie was FIRST lieutenant at the
time, but his captain was detached on
other duty. AS commander u the CON-
pany, he made rcquisition upon the
Observation-Disclosures something
ho wanted. AS quartermaster be de-
clincd 10 fill the requisition, and en-
dorsod on the back his reason for 30 do
ing. AS company commander he re-
sponded to this, urging that his requisi-
ton called for nothing but what be was
entitled to and that it was the duty Of
the quartermaster 10 Gil it. The quar-.
tcrmastcr still persisted that he was
right. In this condition Of affairs Bragg
referred the whole matter 10 the COM
handing officer. The latter, when no
saw tho nature of the matter referred,
exclaimed: "My God Mr.. Bragg, you
have quarroled with every officer in tho
army and now you arc quarreling with
yourself"

Gold Indestructi

Gold may be said to be everlasting,
indestructible The pure acids have
no effect upon it. Air and water are
alike prohibited from working its de-
struction; while to baser metals they
arc decay, to gold they are innocuous.
Bury it through long ages, and when
tho rude tool Of the cxcavator again
brings it to light, while everything
around it and originally associated with
it has returned TO dust from which it
sprang; while tho delicate form which
it adorned has become powder so i'm
palpable as to BIO inappreciable; while
the strong bone Of the mighty warrior
crumbles as you gaze upon it; while
his trusty sword lies mass Of shale
rust, tho delicate tracery in gold which
adorned it, or the finely wrought tiara
which encircled the lofty brow of the
fair damscl, is there in its pristine beauty,
perfect as when it left the workman's
hands ard became the joy Of her feet
ing moments, Yes, days, years, cen
turtles, have rolled by; mighty empires
have risen and fallen; dynasties that
dreamed their power to be everlasting
have passed away; armies have marched,
conquered and become nerveless with
dccrepit old age; cities teeming with
population and commerce have become
the dwelling-place Of the owl and tho bat

the pride Of power and destined to be for
ever, have crumbled and are crumbling ;
and yet the thin filament Of gold has

This play WAS presented to ths Albany
ford's Hall by Albany ameteurs, The
house was crowded to overflowing by the
theater going people OF the city, who seem
TO have the good sense OF knowing just
how to appreciate home talent. The rem
dition seemed to fully meet the hopes ami
expectation OF the friends OF those who
took part in the play. Mr.. Fred Nutting
represented David Murray the light house
keeper. Walter Honteitb, as Larry Die

TO possess talents peculiarly fittIEg to

no dispa ragement to the others who took
