:rec, of Heated Corrcr ON Rubber.

exertS upon it destructive effect. In
order 70 ascertain whether this is due
to the copper in or of itself. or 10 its
power of conducting heat more rapidly

that metallic copper exerts a great OK

silver respectively have no injurious in

GENERAL RUGER.
On His Way to His New Command on tn,
Coast.

On His Way to His New Command on the
Coast.
Many residents of Helena and Montana
will recall the period when General RuRer
had his headquarters in Helena a few years
ago. He has been appointed to the COM
mand of the Pacific division, over which he
is to assume charge on next Monday. Gen.
Ruger returned to st. Paul from his trip to
Chicago a few days ago, and ever since has
been busted in his Office arranging his pa
pers preparatory to leaving FOR the Pacific.
Although the general receives no higher
title in assuming the command of the Pa
cifc, he becomes an independent comman-
der and is under no other general. AS COM
mander of the district of Dakota Gen,
Ruger was under the command of Gen.
Miles, but now the command of the former
will be eqal to that of the latter.
AS yet Gen. Ruger's successor has no
been appointed or mentioned for the va
cancy that will be caused by his assign
ment to the Pacific. There has been a
rumor that either Gen. Forsythe or Gen.
McCook would ave the command, but this
is only hearsay, and has no authority.
Gen. Ruger say thw secretary of war last
Friday, and in regard to the formers sue.
cessor the secretary snid that no choice had
yet been made, as he had not had time te
fully look over the field. 1t is probable
that the name of Gen. Ruger's successor
will not be made public until the day of his
official appointment.
