well, that's all right; that happens to
older men than you, every day.
have noticed that you have very
positive way of flinging decision
where other men state an opinion,
and you frequently make positive as
sertion where older men merely ex-
press belief. But never mind; you
are young. You will know less as you
grow older. Don't l mean you will
know more2" Heaven forbid, my
boy. No, indeed, I mean that you will
know less. You will never know
more than you do now; never. If you
live to be ten thousand years old, you
will never again know SO much as
you do now. No hoary headed sage
whose long and studious years were
spent in reading men and books, ever
knew so much as q boy of your age.
A girl OF Is knows about as much, but
then she gets over it sooner and more
easily. "Does it cause pang, then,
to get rid of early knowledges" All,
my boy, it does. Pulling eye teeth
and molars will seem like pleasant
recreation alongside Of shredding off
great solid slabs and layers of wisdom
and knowledge that now press upon
you like geological strata. "But how
are you to get rid of all this superin-
cumbent wisdom2" Oh, easily enough,
my boy; just keep on airing it; that's
the best Way. It won't stand constant
use, and it disintegrates rapidly on ex-
posure to air.-Burdette in Brooklyn

It Is said that the oldest rosebush in the
world, of which there is authentic record,
grows in churchyard and against an old
church at Heldersheim, Germany. Eight
hundred years ago, 90 the records say, Bishop
Heplio caused trellis to be built on which it
was supported. Today the main stem is
thicker than mans body.

OVER AT LAST.
Major Ly,teeker's Expensive Work On
the Aaueauct Tunnel

Major Lydeeher's Expensive work on
the Appednct Tunnel.
Late yesterday afternoon the Prcsi-
dent approved the findings of the court
martial in the case OF Major l,ydeckcr,
and the sentence was promulgated.
Major Lydecker was found guilty of the
first, second fourth, fifth and sixth
specifications. except where II was
stated in either OF them that in conse-
qucncc of his neglect the contractors
were enabled to and did cvadc the rc.
Quircments of their contracts and caused
delay in furnishing n needed increase in
the supply of water to Washington and
great pecuniary loss 10 the United
States. and of these excerpts he was dc
Clarcd mot guilty.
OF the third specification he was de
clarcd not guilty The third speciilca-
ton alleged that Major Lydecker. with.
out using necessary diligence to satisfy
himself that the contractors had faith
fully performed their work, entered
into an agreement with them to pay
them SIS, ,279.51, that sum being 80 per
cent. of the percentage withheld from
them ms n guarantee for the faithful per.
fOrmance of their work, and on January
"a, 1888, did pay such sum.
The Court says in conclusions "Of
the charge, guilty, and the Court does
therefore sentenced him, Major Garrett
j. Lydecker, corps of engineers. to
forfeit to the United States one hundred
dollars (Sl00) per month Of his pay for
nine months, and to be reprimanded in
orders. The Couft is thus lenicnt in
view of the evidence before it, that, in
spaces so confined as those above the
arch in the tunnel, IL was almost i'm
possible to secure thoroughly good
work under the contract system inn
posed by law"
The sentence was reviewed by the
President, who makes the following in
dorsement upon the papers
The proceedings, findings and sen
tence of the court martial in the case of
Major Garrett j. Lydecker of the corps
of engineers are approved and will be
carried into effect. The gravamen of
the offense of this officer was
the neglect of very high and i'm
pOrtant duty 1t is not very important
from military standpoint whether q
pecuniary loss did or did not result to
the Government. But that very great
loss and inconvenience have been in
flicted on the community by the delays
which have resulted from the failure to
discover promptly the faulty and fraud.
ulcnt character of the work is apparent
The suggestion that the strictest and
most faithful supervision Of the progress
of such work is powerless to detect
and correct the shams which were prac.
ticed by the contractors in this case is a
discredit TO the engineering profession
entirely inadmissible.
The sentence imposed by the court
seems to have given full effect to every
suggestion that might mitigate the Of
