THE OLD POWDER HOUSE.

owned the site, in 1904 This was n
little emineEce ut the meeting of the
roads from Cambridge, Mystic and No
notomy, which was a convenient loca-
ton for supplying the needs Of the settle
ment. Its being designed for wind
mill accounts for its erection upon such
high ground.
In 1747 the mill passed from the NAL
let family by conveyance to the prov
ince Of Massachusetts, Bay for the use
of "Ye governor, council and assembly
Of said province" with the right of way
to and from the high road. But good
while before this transfer it had ceased
to be used as mill. 1t then became
used as house for the storage of pow
der, but it was not till Revolutionary
times that it acquired an historic chsr-
acter, by its association with one Of the
earliest hostile acts of Gen. Gage. That
Officer. with the assistance of Maj. Gen.
Brattle, OF the Massachusetts militia, sent
an expedition TO seize the powder IN this
magazine belonging to the province, and
on Sept. /, 1774, the act was accom-
plished by party of soldiers, who lowed
up from Long wharf, in Boston, for that
purpose. They carried $50 barrels Of
powder 10 the Castle" on the site OF
the present Fort Independence, in BIS
ton harbor. The excitement occasioned
by this seizure led TO an assembiage on
Cambridge common the next morning of
several thousand people, the first occa-
SION, it is said. that the people assem-
bled, in arms, to oppose the forces OF the
king. Thus it was al accident that
made Lexington instead of Cambridge
the scene OF the first battle of the Revo-
lutlonary war.
In f7,5 mistake in the estimate of
the Quantity of powder in the old mill
led To serious consequences. Instead of
40 quarter casks, "a returned, there
were only thirty-cight barrels in the
magazine. and the consequence was that
Washington and his generals were ter
ribly alarmed, As besides the heavy ar
tilleIy being rendered useless. the men
had only nine rounds for small arms.
The walls Of the mill are two feet
thick. the LAYER Of stone which incases
the brick on the inside being sufficient
for durability. The great oaken beams
of the three Lofts stood the test of time
and the knives Of name cutting visitors
successfully until few years ago. when
every thing comb Gstible within the mill
wss consumed By FIRE sat by some mis-
chievous l,Dys. There Is not q shallow

TIE GOVERNORS APPOINTMENTS

A great deal of criticism has been
passed upOu Gov. FLEMING'S appoint
mentS ia respect to the localities he
favored il making them. Some Demo
cratic editors in the State complain that
he has sighted good aud reliably Dem
Ocratlc counties and bestowed the
patronage he Should have given them
on Democrats who are in close, doubt
full or strongly Republican counties.
Gov FLEMING may not have been
discreet in all of his appointments,
but We fail 90 see the justice of
criticising him for appointing to Office
Democrats who are from doubtful or
Republican counties. Appointments
should be made on the ground of fitness
and, if you please, of party service.
A Democrat is Il Democrat
no matter where be lives, and the
Democra. vho works for the success of
his party in Republican county is as
much entitled 10 favor as the Demo
crat in an overwhelmingly Democratic
county-probably more SO, for he has
to fight battle in which the odds are
against him. In a State election are
not Democratic votes east in Repub-
lican county worth Just as much
As those east in Democratic
county. AID are not the Dem
ocratS WIN, light against great odds ia
these Republican counties, worthy Of
Just as uuca recognition as the Demo-
Gratis in overwhelmingly Democratic
counties. who have a Omsarativaly easy
thing Of ito
II the party in Republican or close
counties were to be ignored it would
soon destroy the organization whore
we have most need of it,
and discourage many sturdy Demo-
Gratis who are fighting an uphill
battle. and all chance Of ever changing
the political complexion of a Republican
county through Democratic orgaDiza-
ton
The criticism of the Governors APP
pointments on this ground is unreaSon-
able and unjust

SAID Mr. JUDD, Secretary of the
Wool Consumers Association, day or
two ago:
The harsh treatment of the carpet manu-
featuring industry by the Mckinley bill
and other recent legislation is proving one
of the worst blows which the vicious Sys-
TEN of taxing raw materials has ever re-
ceived. The carpet manufacturers of the
United States were the principal promoters
of the wool and wooden tariff OF 1861. Now
some of them are open advocates of free
wool and of diminished duties on fabrics.
The Manufacturers Club of Phila
delphia claims the honor of having pre-
pared the wool aud wooden schedule of
the Mckinley act. Now they are sorry
they did it, for Mr.. DOLAN, the Clubs
president, has declared that free wool
is inevitable" OF course it is.

AN EXCITING SCENE

SPRINGFIELD, Ills, June 3.-An eX-
traordinary scene of wild confusion and
excitement was witnessed in the lower

afternoon, when the Worlds Fair bill,
which, as passed by The Senate, APP
proprated one million dollars for Hill

fixing the amount at $750,000. it was
apparent that the vote would nearly be
tie, then Speaker Crafts, Democrat,
voted for the amendment and
ignoring Republican member
who wished to change and vote
in favor of the bill, hurriedly announc-
ed that the vote had been closed Then
the House became bedlam of shrek
ing and hurrahing men, while Crafts
cody declared the $3.50 900 amend
ment had been adopted by 76 yeas
to 73 nays. Half dozen made rush
for the Speaker to drag the Gear" as
they called him, from the chair but
were forcibly held back by his friends.
More than one legislator reached for
his revolver and riot seemed
inevitable. McSnernly, of Chic
