WASHINGTON, April sth.-Endicott's let
ter to Senator Cullom, declining to revoke
the order transferring Major Handbury, of
the Engineer Corps, from Chicago to San
Francisco. is looked upon in army circles
as the keynote of plan which the Secre-
tary has adopted for future guidance. He
has determined that no outside interference
will be allowed to hamper the detailing of
officers Of departments.
For years it has been the custom for Off
GERS unlucky enough to be detailed to un-
desirable posts to invoke the aid of SEN
ator, or several members, to save them
selves from disagreeable duty. Now things
have changed. and army and navy details
are beginning to be looked upon as irrevo-

He offered the amendment, providing that
no Chinese persons, and no company or
corporation in which any Chinese per-
sons are interested, shall ever be permitted
to hold or own any mining claim or real

4 CHAMPION LIE.
"A Wild Story Waited From tho Shores of
Csthay.

tStn6N.
Chambers Journal: We have observed
several wonderful stories OF late respecting
the skill OF the Chinese exf cutioners. who,
it is sid can s. rile of the heads Of their
victims STD skIifrl|y that tie poor fellows
themselves never discover their loss until a
moment or two after they are dead. We
recall to mind. however, the story OF Il Ger
man executoner who far surpassed the
Chinese in dcxierity. Upon ore occasion
it happ,Ied that IL criminal who was con-
demneti to de al. lad Il singular itching to
play at nine-pnS, and he iinploced permis-
sion to play once more Mt his favorite game
before he died. Then he said, he would
submit to his late without murmur. The
Judge thinking there could be no harm
in humo rirg him, granted his last prayer,
and upon arriving at the place OF execution
he found everything prepared for the game,
the pins being set up and the bowls already.
He commenced his favorite sport with en-
thusias,n. After awhile the sheriff,
observing that he showed no
inclination to desist, made a
siga to the execrtioner to strike the fatal
blow while he STOPPED for bowl. The exc
cutioner did so, but with such exquisite
dexterity that the cnlprit did not notice or
feel it. He thought indeed, that cold
brea tn Of air was blo.iog on his neck and
drawing himself back with shrug. his head
dropped forward into his hands. He natu-
rally supposed that it was a bowl which he
had grasped, and seizing it firmly, rolled it
at the pins. All OF them fell and the head
was heard to exclaim. as it rebounded from
the further wall: "Hurrah! I've won the
game"

RHttn'S Influence.

The Mining and Scientific Press opens
review of Montana mines as follows: No
mining region has made such great strides
within the past few years as Montana, and
this has been principally due TO the won
derful productivepess OF the mines OF
Butte. That camp contains the most re-
markaby productive group OF mines in the
United States. After the exhaustion OF
the famous placer mines in Alder Gulch,
Montana attracted comparatively little
attention from mining men. 1t was
sparsely settled, there were no railroads,
and little capital was invested in mines.
