The >rnail Arm. Appropriation.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S.-Gen. F1agler,
chief of ordnance, in his annual report,
calls attention to the inadequacy of the
general appropriation for arming and
equipping the militia, which at the last
session of congress was still further re-
duced The highly improved arms of
the present day cost more than three
times as much as arms cost in 1908,
when the appropriation was 100000
Last session this amount, which has
been annually appropriated for eighty
four years, was cut down to S115, 900, an
amount entirely too small to meet the
demands made by the states for allot-

AT WHITE BEAR.
Water Tobogganing All the Rage
at the Lake

The proprietors of Wildwood "builded
better than they knew" and, in developing a
new and almost unknown section of White
Bear lake. they have not only benefited
themselves, but have really helped the whole
lake. Without question, the most taking ad-
yertisement of this new summer resort is
the water toboggan slide. Large num-
bers go out just TO see it in operation. They
are amused, then attracted and finally try it
themselves Many q timid maiden who
would not go down that place for any
thing" urged by the force of example has
braved its f6ncied terrorS, and the Rubicon
once crossed. mas found new and eXhiliar-
ating amusement The trouble afterwards
is TO get her to abandon it, when the prudent
limit of time has been reached, for in fresh
water especially, staying i'll too long becomes
very enervating. The incidental effect of
this amusement and this is its chief recon-
mendation, is that it gets people into the
water, and. once there, they try and learn TO
swim. Too much cannot be said in favor of
lakes or are accustomed to visit it
often, knowledge of the art
of swimming is almost Indispensable
1t is not difficult to acquire. and once
learned can never be forgotten. A few
simple contrivances. such as are used at
swimming schools. should be added to the
toboggan slides at Wildwood and at Rama
ley's, and could not fail to result III many

had the occupants known how to swim
Even where persons cannot save themselves
a slight knowledge of the art and familiar

that others may save them with little diff
Guilty. To save persons who lose all pres
ence of mind in the water is q task often i'm
possible for the best swimmers. The re-
naming weeks of the season should be well
employed in this direction. and should add
many to the number Of those who are at
home in the waves.

The Fragrance OF the strawberr,

The fragrance of strawberries is most

admirable. AT Horticultural hail re-

Of the rose came OH the upper floor. But
it must be confessed that the roses in
this show were not equal to those of
years previous: while James Conley and
Ed Robinson and their followers had
good success, their flowers did not come
up to the old style. Why? The weather
