erty placed in escrow with Mr.. 7. A.

anian. He wears a large, soft, black felt
hat, well pulled down over a broad fore
head. Black curling and well kept hair
hangs gracefully from his head and his
long Prince Albert coat fits like the paper
on the wall. The fact is his dress is as
f~sultless as his manner is frank.

tice, but, with this exception. the arma-
ment in the artillery branch consists of
lot of Anticipated guns that might bet
ter be sent to a museum of ordnance
antiquities The idea Of training sol
diers of the present day for future field
service with guns twenty or thirty
years behind the present age is SO pre-
posterous that, but for its seriousness,
it would appear ridiculous. With his
Enthusiastically trenchant pen Maj.
Carson condenss the opinion of the
board into the following sentence:
''Untn the government supplies the
academy with modern guns to take the
place of the antiquities now IA position
in the seacoast and siege batteries we
recommend that these two worse than
useless batteries be dismantfed and that
wooden guns, fashioned after the latest
approved models and furnished with
modern carriages and cranes. be
mounted instead. Soch course would
not avert the riIficue to which the
United States Is now being subjected.
but il would furnish confidence that its
military men are cognizant OF the fact
that progress has been made ID the
fabrication of great guns In addition
to this, wooden models Of modern fash
ion would at least give the cadets an
idea OF the kind Of guns likely to be
used in warfare and the methods en-
ployed in serving them"
Maj. Carson calls attention to the fact
that military officers from European
nations who come to America care very
little for our great cities and the beausi-
full capital of our nation and the i'm
mensity of our territory. They go to
West Point to see what we know, if
anything, concerning the art of war,
and it is no wonder that they report to
their superior officers upon their return
home that the American republic is
practically defenseless
In the cavalry service of the academy
the ordnance department limits it's sup
ply of bits to two sizes, so that instead
of adjusting a bit to a horses mouth.
the horse must adjust it's mouth 10 the
size of the bit. The saddle cloths fur
nished are as ridiculous and as unseen
~ as the bits
The report of the board expresses
qualification that during the past few
years congress has been fairly liberal
in it's appropriations for the buildings
and grounds of the academy. When
the buildings now in course of erection
are completed the cadet corps will be
housed with comfort.
The report contains a number of steel
engravings of the grounds and cadets

In spite of the recent evidently au-
thentic interview with blaine, in which
he said ne would not accept the presi-
dency If he were to be elected without
a contest, the prominent politician
still does duty, and confidingly relates
that Blaine will be nominated at Min

Will not refuse to run It is remem-
bered that inzS6S Gov. Seymour said co
the democratic convention: Your can

Blaine would seem TO cut off cOntro-
versy by the statement that in his

strucsive suicide for him to attempt to
discharge the duties of the presidential
office He0 is but sixty-two years of
age, and has a reasonable prospect of
living fifteen or twenty years If not

prosecutors Life has too much happi-
ness in it to throw it away, he says
But these men who are conspiring to
use his name are not greatly con-
cerned as 20 his longevity They would
be quite willing to compromise with
the adversary OF life and allow him to
take Blaine the day after the
election They would have faithful

bosses who have been hunting for

house. 1t is improbable that they have
any real expectation of making a candi-

His life is little to them. but it Is a

is desperate one at best They hate
Harrison, but have not been able to
turn the tide in the party away from
him If they can use the name of
Blaine TO prevent republican Sonven-
tons from instructing for Harrison,
their first point will be gained They
may place some credence in the pre-
tense of the president that hes Is not
itching for the nomination as much as
supposed, and may pull out if there is
much ruction over IT. It is probable.
however. that they know him too vsen
to take much stock iD.that notion The
strong point with them Is to divert TIA

aging an enlisted man, tends to elevate
the service, by enhancing the confidence
of the troops in the wisdom and good
intent of the military officers under
whom they serve Maj. Carson, who
has had a great deal of experience in
military affairs, dwells at length upon
this idea and quotes Gen. Philip 81.
Sheridan as having said on one occasion
to him: '.Show me a good captain and
