sMoKBLEss POWDER
The United States Will Give It Trial
at Different Arsenais.

The United States is to give trial to the
smokeless powder claimed by Capt. Ellis
worth of Hartford, Conn. as his invention
Gen. Green B. Raum, who is Capt. Ellis
worth's attorney, recently made request in
the name of his clieat that the powder be
given test in order to show its worth Gen
Raum told Secretary Proctor that Capt Ellis
worth had given the German government an
option on the exclusive use of the powder.
and after this expired he had received let
ter closing It but by Gen. Raum's advice he
had decided not to open negotiations with
Germany again until the United States had
been given a chance to see the powder tested.
Secretary Proctor and Gen. Benet. the
chief Of ordnance, both agreed to allow
some tests to be made, and Capt. Ellsworth
will make formal application for these. The
first will take place at Springfield, Mass, and
another at the army ordnance proving ground
at Sandy Hook, N j., with large guns. No
dates for the te SITS have been set.
Within the past few weeks Gen. Benet
has received several applications from per-
sons who claim to have invented smokeless
powders asking for tests Of their creations.
All will probably be given chance 10 show
the worth of their powder.
In the tests Of the Ellsworth powder the
inventor is to furnish the powder and the
government will bear the expense Of the
shells. Congressional action sill be neces-
sary to the adopt on Of the powder which il

that Ferry.

Silent and peaceful was the city yesterday.
1t 10 noticeable that nothing affords greater
quietus on the ioquacity of the diner than the
fragrance from the cooking and relish from
eating the average Thanksgiving dinner.
It was bad travelling last evening on our
streets, for rain and snow had combined to
make it 30. Nevertheless the last night Of
the Catholic fair vas largely attended. and
everyone present seemed to enjoy to the ut
most the entertainment Of the evening.
Not very far from Hsllowell, the other
day, a person called at = gentlemsn's resi-
dence and inquired, Would the woman Of
the house like lady to do washing?T
Il seems that at last Hallowell is catching
mp with the times and 10 to have an old
fashioned punkin scow ferry. Here, then,
10 cause for Thanksgiving. The ferry will
be capable Of carrying loaded teams - well
- passengers, and to run . ferry. While
far from the pristine glory Of the cid bridge,
and further still from the fond ideal which
many have cherished Of bridge in the
future, it is YET much better than the presen,
mode of ferfying. Mr.. T. Rolfe will build
the ferry boat this winter, having obtained
permission from the County Commissioners.
