Capt. Fife Fails to Make Reports.
OLYMPIA, July a1.-[specialI. -Adiutant-Gen-
sral o'Brien, in reply TO the criticism
OF Captain Fife, of Tacoma, says
that no militia captain has failed
TO receive money due for armory rent who has
made his quarterly statement as required by the
regulations of the national board General
O'Brien says that he has sndeavored TO conduct
the affairs of the militia business basis, and
that his trouble with Fife has been caused
by failure of the latter TO
recognize that systeia is fully as necessary in
transecting militia business in running
hotel. Captain Flies reports for the quarters
ending March 80 and June 80 have not yet been
received by the adjutant general, and therefore
his accounts for armory rem. cannot be allowed.
General o'Brien says that Captain File is one OF
the most derelict Of officers in the service in
sending reports through the proper channels,
though he has received instructions often
enough. His acquisitions have been honorsd as
often as 1t was proper to do 90 when the articles
asked for were In stock

ing quantity a large part of it is of
superior quality which finds Il ready

sfantly increasing !; for these lower
grades there is now scarcely any mar

that the question of the fuel value of
such goods Il arisen the lower gra-

%facture Of sugar is, the lower grade Of

The analysis ofiow grade Louisiana
molasses indicates - per cent sucrose.
p per cent glucose, % per cent other
solids not sugar, and 20 per cen water.
We thus have an article containing
but ~ per cent Of water, and the rest
OF it largely carbon. and it would seem.
theoretically at least. to have a com
~paratlvely good fuel value. Its pre-
sent market value leaves Its value on
the plantations at about ? cents per
gallon. Or 1888 per ron, which price
per ton is about the present value of
coal. 1t it could be demonstrated that
snch molasses has a fuel value equal to
or about to coal, pound for pound, it
would quickly solve heproblem which

Origin Of Envelopes.

despatch Of ordinary business com
munications for the inhabitants Of the
larger towns. One Of these biIlets has
been preserved to our y day.
Poisson, the friend of Nine. de Sc

Cd Of correspondence. He once filled
the blank portion Of a billet with a let

which ne called her "Sapho," signing

This is the note which has been pre-
served, and it is probably the Oldest
