OF Matthew Arnold, who was
very kindly entertained in Wash
ington, different stories are told of
his lack of tact, amounting almost
to discourtesy toward his entertain
ers. IIis daughter was a pretty
girl, but she had not learned even
as much as her father. So her hosts
listened to these remarks from the
young lady, while they were dining
at one of the handsemest houses
in the city: "Oh, papa, bow much
better the cooking is here than it
was at the As" and she named
a very well-known family i'll New
York; 1--WE had such nasty things
there" The remark was quite aud
ible, and it made a subdued ripple.
People who sell dangerous coal
oil ought to be sen: to Dakota IL

Under the representations of the
priest the grant was suspended.
Besides claiming that the grant
was excessive, the priest declared
that an American, Charles Bent.

But Beaubien and Miranda, TO
whom the grant had been made.

OF suspension was revoked.

Frances Wonderful New Rifle.

The Lebel rifle, the new arm with which
Che French infantry Will be supplied before
next spring, Is, according to all accounts. a
wonder, and several models of the gun which
have been received here have excited great
interest. The new rife is known by the nam,
OF Its inventor, Lebel, and is smaller ard
lighter than the rifles now in use; the French
soldiers call 1T "the little gun" The most
authentic descriptions given Of the gun agree
IN atulDutlng to 1t carrying power beyond
That OF any rifle heretofore in use The models
received in New York are not known to be
accurate copies of the Lebel gun, and expert
ments with them are impossible, owing to the
tact that the powder used is a secret COM
pound OF which the French government has
the monopoly.
According to all accounts the I.ebel gun
will carry its bullet more than a mile and a
halt, and with more certain aim than has
been possible with ordinary rifles The bore
OF the gun is very small and the ball. which
is OF steel and sharply pointed at one end. is
sand TO revolve at n speed of a thousand revo-
buttons a second. Ia the tests made by the
French government this bullet has penetrated
brick wall eight inches thick at distance
Of 500 yards; 1t Will go through any kind of
armor which can be worn by soldiers, and at
distance OF more than a mile will pass
through a mass as easily as at ten PAGES. The
gun has no recon under fire, and the powder
gives out no smoke whatever It has been
said that the powder used must be type of
smokeless hunting powder already in the
market; but this is denied by the inventor.
who says that he uses an entirely new com
pound. The Lebel gun is. of course, a re-
peater and the cartridges ara so small thst
zach soldier carries 300 rounds OF ammuni-
lion, as against ll6 rounds, formerly consid-
cred the maximum.
The French government is now making
these guns at the rate of 500 a day at Saint

That number. -Four factories, those at Chat
