lozenge shape, the outside being mere block
without projections or access. It Is not yet
settled whether this block shall be surrounded
by a trench, but all competent authorities in
Europe seem to hold that one or several
sheeted cannon shall move round the block,
and as powder will in future be smokeless,
this cannon, always in motion and escaping
the enemy's aim, will fire on fixed point.
This movable sheeting will make up for the
absence of trenches. At the angles of the
block, moreover, if square, or elsewhere it is
round or oval, there will be sheeted reducts,
which will cover the base Of the block and
make assault impossible

entrance Is underground, on the side opposite

The Oelriclls lldsocate Of last week
was foamins at its mouth. so to speak.
1t told al unblusling falsehood when
it made the statement it did about the
conversation heard in the Springs on
county seat. The people Of the Springs
never said nor do not say anything that
is contrary to the sentiments expressed
in the STAR. We have always said
when the county seat vas removed il
should go toward the center, not seven
miles farther away from 1t than what
Hot Springs is. No IL mere ever
promised Rorse-head that they would Sc
in for moving the county seat there
or anywhere else two years ago.

We should like to know of bro. Id
rocate if they have the $4,000 in the
bank to build the court house, that
Oelric'ls promised would he done. or is
ii a fash and Is ii Il cold fact that
all they want is The power to move the
county seat. and then use the same
dirty method TO tax the people for fund.-
! TO build a court house.
