Money Runs Out.
WASHINGTON, Sept, 23.-Mrs. uarri.
son will doubtless BIO pleased with the
appearance of the blue room and the
EAST room when she returns from Cres-
Son. From within a few days of her de-
bartuTe for Cape May the white house
has been filled with workmen who have
been working ever since preparing it
for the winters season. The appear
ance of the blue room in which Miss
Frances Folsom became Mrs. Cleveland
has been entirely changed. The wood
work, formerly of a dingy blue, has
been changed to ivory white, and the
wainscoting and frieze are of o blue and
gold design In silk. Panels of blue
American silk are placed upon the side
walls between the wainscoting and
frleze, while the ceiling Is decorated
in colors to harmonic with the
other appointments. At the win
dows there are double blue silk
curtains with background of
white lace, while the floor il covered
with a pigeon egg blue .5iyet carpet,
which has been specially woven to or.
der. The east room, also, has been
overhauled as we'll as wired for electric
lights under the supervision of Engi-
neer Baird, of the navy department.
Twenty ihcandeseeht lights have been
placed Upon the big crystal chandelier
In this room, and there is also o single
row OF burners beneath the frieze. The
effect OF this light upon the two big
chandeliers, which are composed of
5000 pieces OF glass, ana which cost
s6, 600, Is magnificent The amount ap.
propriated by congress this year for re-
furnishing, repairing and r~edecorating
the executive mansion was but $l4,O 900,
and three-fourths OF this has been spent
upon the blue room. As a result the
state diningroom and the green parlor,
both of which are sadly in need of over
hauling. having been practically
neglected since Grants administration,
will have to remain as they are for at
least another year,

Sweeping ages, cycles, systems into worthless

Serried armament of ocean filling in line after

present rearming of the German in.

of the smokeless powder. is, of all the
rearmings of infantry in this century,
the most important. A gun has been
introduced which in every respect is
superior to all other guns. This fact is

TIE NEW GERMAN RIFLE.
Forcible Arms Smokeless, and Rapid
| Busy German Gun Factories.

The manufacture of the new small
caliber repeating guns of the model of
1888 for the German standing army has
just been completed. Within a year
and half the gun factories of Spandau,
Danzig, and Erfurt have produced a
sufficient number of guns to arm al
most 100000 soldiers. German mill
tary authorities declare that this
rapidity of manufacture is unprecedent-
ed and direct attention to the fact that
the German army will have been pro-
vided with its new arms in much less
time than the French required to in
troduce the Lebel gun.
Every company in the German in
fantry has received at least one gun of
the new pattern, with full ms ructions
as to the use of it. All the infantry of
the Ninth Corps have been armed with
the new guns since Feb. &c, and April
l the new arming of the whole infantry
was about completed. The new arm
ing of the reserves and Of that part of
the militia which in case of war must
respond to the first call is expected to
follow, although the plans of the Gov
eminent and the general staff in this
regard are unknown to the country at
large. The militia "of the second call''
and the Landsturm will probably use
the guns just discarded by the standing
army.
Technically and mechanically the
new repeating gun is declared to be
vastly superior to any repeating gun
heretofore placed in soldiers hands.
1t is exclusively a repeating gun and
cannot be utilized as single loader.
Its caliber is only eight millimeters.
considerably less than the calber of
the gun it supplants. Its range is H.
500 feet; that is about 2, 600 feet great
er than the range of the old gun. 1t
possesses unequaled power of penetra-
ton and sureness of aim. 1t is very
light and is constructed for the use OF
smokeless powder. 1t is supplied with
cartridges five at time by means of a
tin frame of the Mannlicher pattern.
| After the fifth shot the frame falls to
| the ground. The bullet is of the form
of small cross section of a lead pencil,
has lead kernel under a coating OF
steel, and nickel outside. The barrel
of the gun is provided with a mechan-
zeal device to keep it cool during firing.
At distance of 325 feet the bullet
/ penetrates well-seasoned, close-grained
tirwood to the depth of thirty-two
inches; at distance of 1900 feet, to
the depth of eighteen inches; at a dis.
lance of 200 feet, to depth of ter

HANGING IN WISCONSIN.

OSHKOSH. Wis, July IA peculiar
case has arisen in the punishment of John
Warpoose, the Indian, who committed
incest, and was found guilty at Oshkosh yes
terday before Judge Bum. The only
penalty prescribed by the United States
for such an offense is death. Capt.
punishment, however, is forbidden by the
laws Of Wisconsin and is against tn
usage and settled policy of the state. The
opinion of Judge Bum is that the SEN
tence of death must be pronounced in this
case, and that the laws of the state cam 1t
interfere with those of the federal govern
ment.
Warpoose's sentence may be committed
to life Imprisonment, by the president and
petitions to bring about that end have
been sent in, and were signed by Judge
Bum, the district attorney and many
others

The Texan COWBOY

Cowboy life has in the last few years
lost much of Its rouehness. The cattle
barons have discharged most of the men
who drank. and have fr0wned so persis-
tently upon gambling that little is done.
Cards and wiiskey being put away. there
is small temptation to diSorderiy conduct
so II is only when they reach some large
city, and are not on duty. that they In
dulge in a genuine spree. On the ranches
kept under fence they have little to do
time. the cattle being all safely enclosed.
But they must take their turns at line
riding, which means close inspection OF
the fences. and the repair of all brakes
and damages. Where night overtakeS
them. there they sleep, stalking their
horses, and rolling themselves in their
blankets These rides of inspection take
days to accomplish, for there are ranches
In Texas which extend In straight hne
over seventy-fve miles. Those ranches
which are not kept under fence necessitate
more work. The boys must then keep
their cattle in sight, and while allowing
them to Craze in every direction, must
see that none In the many thousands stray
beyond tie limits of their own particular
pastures. They go then in parties, scat
tering over the territory, for they must
cover hundreds of thousands of acres in a
day.
