VALUE OF EXPERT TESTIMONY.

The Omaha Bee says: In trial
in the United States court where a
young man had been indicted for
passing a counterfeit SO bill, the
counsel of the latter, G. A. Baldwin,
objected to Gen. Strickland's course
in endeavoring to prove by business
men the fact that the bill in ques-
ton was counterfeit, but to no
purpose. Finally, improving ia
vorable chance, Mr.. Baldwin SUBJ
stituted a good bill for the counter
felt, which genuine money General
Strickland then proved by three
business men TO be the rankest kind
of counterfeit. Thereupon Mr..
Baldwin vehemently demanded that
attention be given to his objections,
and Judge Dundy insisted that the
district attorney send out for a
bank cashier and an expert. With
great confidence Gen. Strickland
handed the expert the bill-after
establishing his business and his
experience in handling money-and
said:
Estate to the jury whether in your
opinion that bill is good or bad"
"This is a good bill, SIR return
ed the witness.
"What." shouted thel.attorney,
do you mean to say that bill is not
a counterfeit"
Eyes, sir; if you will bring it
down to the Omaha National Bank,
we will give you the gold tor IT,
There was scene, in the midst
of which Mr.. Baldwin managed to
explain to the court that he had
changed bills without the knowl-
edge of the district attorney. and
that, in view of the fact that three
good business men had testified that
a genuine bill was n counterfeit, he
thought considerable allowance
should be made for his client-an
ignorant country boy--in mistaking
a counterfeit for good bill. The
jury were evidently impressed with
the idea, for they returned a verdict
of acquittal.

kENTUCkY'S CENTENNIAL.
Both Lexington and Louisville Want Its
Celebration.


FRANKFORT, KY, Dec. 5.-One of the
most animated and interesting contests
that will come up in the coming legisla-
ture will be over selecting the city at
which the state centennial celebration
shall be held next year.
Next May Kentucky will have fin
ished a century of statehood, and it is
presumed that the Legislature will au-
thorize the expenditure of sum of
money for the celebration of this event
with proper ceremonies. OF course any
city or community can celebrate if they
desire; but one city, however, will have
the benefit of this appropriation, and
the bids for this are already open
ing up.
The chamber of commerce and all the
daily papers i'll Lexington are making a
great deal of noise about holding the
celebration in that city, and they have
already arranged to send strong lobby
to the capital to aid in securing the APP
preparation to them. Lexington, being
the original capital, they think entities
them to the place of celebration. The
FilsOn club, an historical society of Lou
isville, has for some time been at work,
and indeed were the pioneers in the
move to have a centennial celebration,
and they will bring some powerful inhu-
ences to bear to get the Falls City Sc
lected.
Frankfort all along has said nothing,
but at the proper time she will speak,
and in Justice of her claim will be SO
strong, and the inducements held out
by her people of such a character that
they will not likely be overlooked. 1t is
not probable that any other city will
contest for the appropriation.

sIxTEEN-INCH GUNS.
Recommendation Made by the Chief OF
the Bureau of Ordinance.

Recommendations Made by the Chief OF
the Bureau of Ordinance.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 5. - Commodore
Folger, chief of the bureau of ordinance,
in his annual report to the secretary Of
the navy, says that the number of guns
required to arm the vessels provided for
by the law is 3l7 OF this number 294
have been ordered and 1866 have been
completed. These guns range from four
to thirteen inches. OF these guns all
calibers up to the 10-inch have passed
beyond the experimental stage, having
been thoroughly tested on board ship
and ON the firing ground.
Although no guns Of 16-inch caliber
are at present required for the arma-
ments of ships provided for by law, it is
not unduly that the time may come
when it will be desirable to construct
guns of the largest practicable calibre.
The Washington gun factory is equipped
for the manufacture of such guns, ald
the bureau recommends tnat the con-
struction Of at least one 16-inch gun and
mount be authorized. A design of tits
caliber has been made and it is believed
that the difficulties experienced abroad
with the guns of the larger bores may
be overcome without serious trouble.
The bureau recommends that the cali
Der and weights of all projectiles used in
the army and the naval services be
made uniform in order that in case of
war an interchange of ammunition may
be made without confusion or difficulty.
The manufacture of brown powder
for the navy, the report says, has been
continued by Messrs. E. l. Dupont &
Company, of Wilmington, Del. Brown
powder for 6-inch and S-inch guns
is now produced with uniform success
in advance of the demand for it for the
new ships, This powder contains no
unstable or volatile constituents, is I'M
affected by repeated heating for long
periods, and is uninjured even by boil
ing in water, though while wet it will
not burn. 1t can not be detonated,
either by the direct action or illuminate
when closely confined, or by influences,
and, in fact, will successfully undergo
the test of unusual severity.
In reference to armOr piercing prOJec-
tile the report says that a definite pro-
gress in improvements in quality of the
projectiles received under the contract
with the Carpenter Steel company has
been distinctly apparent since the COM
mencement of the deliveries, and it is
gratifying to be able to note that this is
is due to the suggestions of the contrac-
tors themselves, who have i'll a measure

UNDER A FALLING WALL.
A Gang of Workmen Caught at st. Paul
Ten Reported Killed.

ST. PAUL, Dec. 5.-The most horrible
took place Friday shortly after 1 o'clock,
when the center wall of the west section
of the Shepard building, recently occu-
pied by Farwell, Ozmun & Kirk, fell in,
burying the workmen beneath the ruins
There were supposed to have been fifty
men beneath the wall at the time it fell, &,
and the majority of them were killed or
received injuries which will probably
prove fatal.
The patrol wagons in the city
were at once informed the city authori-
ties and they made an attempt to organ
ize the laborers who were not under the
wall and get them to work removing the
dead and injured from beneath the
ruins. The men We're wild with excite
ment, however, and it was a long time
before more than half dozen could he
induced to go to work. The others ran
back and forth around the building
shouting to each other and uttering i'm
precautions against the contractors or
stood gazing blankly at the ruins.
The group that went to work in less
than half an hour had taken out num-
ber OF men, ten of whom were killed and
the others injured, one so severely that
the physicians on the ground stated that
he could not live until he reached the
hospital.
By this time larger gang had been
put to work and the work of removing
the debris went on rapidly. Finally the
contractor, Wilcox, was taken out dead
and mangled beyond recognition. His
head appeared to be mashed to pulp.
The wounded were taken to the city
hospital in the patrol wagon and the
dead, with the exception of one man,
We're laid out in the Great Northern
freight house. Hundreds of people, in
Guiding many Of the workmen, viewed
the remains, but no one was able 90
identify any of the men. Finally, the
name of one of the de-d laborers was
ascertained to be Chris Larson.
Lauer, the foreman of the gang, was
going about the building, but was
frantic with grief and excitemen and
could not tell the names of any of the
men, though he knew them all. Neither
could he tell the exact number of men
under the wall at the time it fell.
The cause of the accident, as near as
can be learned, was the wall, which was
much weakened by fire, became topheavy
from the large mass of debris moved
from the bottom, and fell over of it's
own weight. For some times it has
been considered dangerous by people
who frequented the street.
